Spring Wildlife of Cincinnati

I've strung together a bit of leftover footage that I had sitting around in this just over a minute long video. In this video you will see some of the most common and recognizable residents of our parks and preserves here in Cincinnati. When something becomes commonplace it can become under appreciated. I believe that all wildlife deserves to be showcased as each and every species is unique and serves its own purpose. I opted not to add music to this one as the sounds of nature can be quite sufficient and much needed at times. I'm working on a longer version currently that will showcase the less often seen marvels that nature offers up to us to observe and to learn from. Featured in this video you will see Canada Geese, the Eastern Cottontail Rabbit, a nesting Killdeer, a Groundhog, a preening Great Blue Heron and a scuffle between two Mallard drakes.

A short montage of some of the most common wildlife we have in and around Cincinnati. The wildlife featured in this video can be easily overlooked as we are used to seeing them in nearly every park or preserve. However, each and every species can be beautiful and unique in their own light. Next time you take a walk in your local park, take some time out to sit back and take in the sights and sounds of the life that surrounds us. In this video we have Canada Geese, the Eastern Cottontail Rabbit, a nesting Killdeer, a Groundhog, a preening Great Blue Heron and a pair of Mallard drakes entangled in an altercation over a nearby female.
