My name is Luis Da Silva, welcome to my YouTube channel!
I’ve always had a passion for photography, and in 2019 I became especially drawn to wildlife and nature. After years of planning and trips dating back to 2011, I often felt that photos alone couldn’t capture the atmosphere, conditions, and experience of being there. One day, quite spontaneously, I decided to start recording my journeys, beginning with my visit to Thursley Common.
I create honest and immersive content to encourage people to get outdoors, connect with nature, and appreciate the beautiful and unique bird species around us. I also hope to gently raise awareness of the impact humans can have on wildlife and inspire positive, practical ways to reduce it.
I understand that not everyone is able to get outdoors due to health or other circumstances, so these videos are also for you — a way to enjoy the beauty of nature from the comfort of your own home.

Hi everyone, I know I’ve been away for a few months. Life has been very busy with a change of job and a few personal things going on behind the scenes, but I’m really happy to say I’m back.
I’m starting with a video I filmed back in January, photographing the incredible Red kites in the Chiltern Hills. It’s going live today, and I really hope you enjoy it.
Thank you for sticking around and supporting the channel.
