Thank you, this was very helpful. Now I know it was for sure a Downy on the trunk of the cedar tree outside my window.
Awesome
Happy 6th birthday Charlotte
He gots dog in him
I have seen so many variable coats on Coyotes and yes I have seen ones that look like this before. They are amazing and underrated animals. I have seen them all over the Western part of the US. And I see Coyotes on my Ranch in the Pacific Northwest everyday.
Outstanding
@@DaveCollierCamping thanks
Very nice
Excellent video
@@DaveCollierCamping thank you
Outstanding
Outstanding video, I do alot of bird videos here in eastern Virginia , new friend here.
Beautiful fox 🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊 enjoying apple 🍎🍎
What a beautiful animal. Opportunistic, healthy, and intelligent. No sign of mange, rabies, or any disease that has been known to infect both humans and animals.
That's a grain cart. Not a hopper wagon.
@@Corey8R230 thanks for the info
What the fuck is that one motherfucking beaver
That’s a beaver 🦫
Woooooooooow
thank you! I will leave it alone
I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to convince my wife to let me have a pet possum for the man cave. Thanks to your video proving that possums regurgitate indigestible food pellets, I have another argument to use for my cause. She's sure to let me have a possum now.
Is that a swan in there or an albino?

I love photographing these guys in Willows Ca.
Is the larva yellow with legs?
What if you're growing it in a pot?

this is a darrius rotor with a lot of extra steps. your underlying issues are two: one: you assume that normal turbines only harvest wind at one altitude, this is not the case. they harvest power from the entire swept area of the blade. below about 80 feet there really isn't good wind so they're built above this. but the entire swept disk of the blade is harvesting power. two: darrius rotors don't pull nearly the efficiency of your more typical wind turbines. they cant because one side of the rotor is always in the wind shadow of the other, running into its dirty air. in a horizontal axist rotor, the entire thing is always presented with clean air. likewise on a vertical rotor, one side is spinning into the wind, and the other is with the wind. in a horizontal turbine, everything is across the wind and so its not fighting itself on one side.
ok, Thank You
If its a radical new design then its certainly bs !
Engineering student here! As the other comment pointed out, one of the biggest issues this design would face is that the area presented to incoming airflow is very small. Imagine looking at this device from upwind (which would be essentially the same is it is drawn in the video). Only the blades on the right side of the device would be in a position to actually catch wind and have work done on them, the rest of the area of the device is not doing anything, and some of the area is actually working against you. On the left side, you have blades which are moving into the wind. I assume these blades would be designed to minimize drag from this orientation, but inevitably some drag would be caused, and the resulting torque would _subtract_ from the net torque driving the generator. So, essentially, the useful presented area is a very small portion of a device which already might be relatively small. The volumetric kinetic energy density of air moving due to wind is already quite small, which is why wind turbines have become so large, and for this design it means there's very little power potential. Overall the idea still isn't a bad one, it is essentially a modular vertical-axis turbine, and vertical axis wind turbines are already used. They naturally have to deal with the low energy density in wind, and it's really worth noting that these vertical turbines suffer from low efficiencies, at least in part due to the drag that I mentioned before. They tend to be used in applications where space is at a premium and a conventional wind turbine wouldn't fit, and I think this design could be seen in similar circumstances if it were to be built. The modular design and intent for easy maintenance might be found useful in a niche application, but it's worth pointing out that the wind itself isn't a consistent source of energy. Wind power, especially at small scales, benefits from being coupled with an energy storage strategy, so some downtime for maintenance probably wouldn't interrupt power delivery in a properly designed system. This is especially true because they can be very simple devices. The modularity of the concept is still interesting, and a modular vertical axis turbine could be an attractive option in an application where scaling the output in the future is being considered. I think that the idea of a modular turbine is probably the most attractive/useful aspect of this idea.
Thank you
I obviously am not an engineer, but I figure the wind hitting the blade would wrap around the blades for a little less than half of the surface area? Since the power source is free, isn't resistant a non- issue? Multiple turbines at multiple altitudes should be a huge advantage over the current design that has different wind striking from multiple directions and speed at the same time. The first wind turbines put in service and are nearing their useful lives, and this design could replace them? Not wanting to fight, just thankful my idea is being viewed and talked about. Thank you
Blue Jays are assholes, everyone knows this
Awww theyre cute
Wrong. Pruning milkweed once in mid July is beneficial for Monarchs laying eggs. The milkweed will regrow, and Monarchs prefer laying eggs on younger plants.
my thinking is that in the wild no one cuts back the milkweed?
Thank you this is useful info!
But those are spiky!😢
no worries, no spikes on dandelion.
@@pauldornbusch6408 ohhh 👌
It's fascinating watching them hunt!
yes, I think so too.
Nice footage!
Thanks!
That is how bald eagles lost their hair. Canadians "Asshole" Geese dont collaborate on being hunted, they need to learn how any decent prey would behave..
This is what they mean when they say, punching above your weight class.
Who want to explain the birds and bees to him?
Usual suspect.
Out to protect its chick's.
The redwing black bird is very territorial and has a tendency to attack other birds that are in its area. With or without a nest nearby.
That's a Red Winged Blackbird. I know... aptly named.
Get off my block!
WOW! I cannot believe my eyes. This is beautiful.
thank you
Eagles and large birds often get 'mobbed' by smaller birds sometimes in small group. They defender territory and retaliate when the larger birds might prey on the eggs or newborns. I see it all the time done to crows in a local park. Sometimes it seems the smaller birds are just having a go at them.
Eagle barely got away.
Must've been too close to it's nest
Yep
Thank you Paul ☺️
Boom! Says the 12 gage. Coyote food
Great video as i have 2-3 daily at my Arkansas country home foraging like your video and they will also feed of my old cypress table feeder i "constructed."Just grabbing some of the mixture.They also peck hard on the table.Kinda amusing.😊
