My first serious attempt at filming

[PickleMeDickles]

So, I have filmed little bits here and there, but have made a resolution to catch my birds on film doing their thing. Here, I was going to catch one of SassyByrds tantrums when I'm on the phone. JoJoByrd flew onto my lemonade glass so I pointed the camera at her. I thought the result was a little funny! Oh yea, you can hear SassyByrd in the back asking me, "What are you doing, huh?"[ame="https://youtu.be/faNf1VwpBYE"]https://youtu.be/faNf1VwpBYE[/ame]

This is so cute!! It's nice that JoJo isn't camera-shy! Love the camera angle!

Since you're starting down the bird-filming path... one thing it took me awhile to get used to with filming Darwin was that if you hold the phone horizontally instead of vertically, you don't get the black bars framing the video and the video fills more of the screen. Granted, it's not as natural of a position to hold it horizontally and I had to make a conscious effort to break the habit of holding the phone vertically! Now it comes pretty naturally.

Hmmm, mobile phone marketing engineers hard at work in their attempts to control our lives. Just when they think they got us controlled, our Parrots take-over.
Great video!
