A compilation of some of my favourite nature videos...

.

The insightful narration offered by environmentalist George Monbiot throughout this video is what many hunting & gathering societies knew for many generations across the globe (minus the scientific terminology).

A message that is just as relevant today as it was in the distant past.

.

Another fascinating, ultimately hopeful message conveyed by George Monbiot.

.

A fantastic, short video of a man very much connected and committed to the amazing Daintree Rain Forest of north-east Australia.

Neil Hewett's incisive, original descriptions of some of the wildlife and ecology of Daintree Rain Forest is well worth a listen.

.

At the risk of stating the obvious - capturing amazing moments of nature on video is not the exclusive domain of large, expensive productions with the best cameras...

This amateur video perfectly captures the magic of starling murmurations (massive flocks of starlings that gather at dusk to preform spectacular aerial feats before settling down to roost).

.

A wonderful short video about wilderness - accompanied by the epic, eloquent words of John Muir. Inspiring.

.

Great video of a man that loves the freedom and creative potential of climbing trees.

.

Stunningly shot, evocative music and passionate narration..."My Mother always encouraged us to open our eyes and hearts to the world - make up our own minds, be inspired..."

The camera man and narrator, Mickey Smith, also has a great accent.
