A Badgers story || A wildlife photographers tale

Over the course of 6 months I´ve been working on a small badger project for myself, I´ve benn trying to capture the everyday life and behaviors of the european badger, it has been a tough time, long days and hard work in order to keep up with the badgers. Needless to say, This was the most agonising and rewarding 6 months of my life. So many days, mornings and nights spent at the sett without any reward but when those small glimps of the badgers finally occurred, oh boy, it was like something knocked the breath out of you and the pure joy would last a few days. I wasn´t really prepared and was heavily reliant on spotting the badgers during the day light to be able to record them, knowing this now. if money wasn´t a hinderance I would build a few camera traps with different purpose to capture the badgers at different locations around the sett where I noticed they went to search for food, played and socialized outside the sett to get more footage and to learn more about the european badgers. This video strays from my typical videos, I wanted to try something different from what I´ve done before, hopefully you will like it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Camera Equipment: Nikon D500 Nikkor 500mm f4g ed vr Nikon Z6 24-70mm f4 s Huawei P20 pro Sound: Zoom F1 lav mic Zoom H5 Röde video mic Accessories: Tragonpan 500 v4 camera bag Tragopan Hokki v2 photoblind Tragopan Hokki v6 Edited in: Adobe Premiere Pro Adobe Audition Music from Epidemicsounds.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #europeanbadger #wildlifephotography #nikonz6
