What is a Spring Ephemeral?
Переглядів 515Рік тому
Spring ephemerals are underground superstars that make short but dazzling appearances starting in early spring. But how do they get so much done in such a short amount of time, and how can they survive earlier in the season than most other plants? Find out more about these plants, their cold weather adaptations, and why they have to make every moment count.
What are Fairy Shrimp? 🍤🌟
Переглядів 11 тис.Рік тому
In this episode of Pop Wild, we're talking about one of our favorite spring creatures: fairy shrimp! Fairy shrimp exist for only a short time, but have eggs that can last for years. And, they might be related to a few things you know... like a certain novelty product sold under the premise of "instant life." We'll dive into vernal pools (but not literally) to explore these curious freshwater cr...

How to Make a Suet Cake for Birds
Переглядів 6 тис.Рік тому
While we humans have the luxury of remaining indoors to escape the cold, birds aren’t so lucky. Once temperatures dip below freezing, their bodies work overtime to stay warm, which burns a lot of calories. To help birds survive the winter, we'll show you an easy way to make healthy, calorie-dense suet cakes using key ingredients that you might already have at home.

Donate to keep our 1,800 acres a healthy ecosystem and home for wildlife. 8271a.blackbaudhosting.com/8271a/End-of-Year-Appeal You’ve heard the phrase “Let nature take its course,” but when the actions of humans result in dire consequences for wildlife, then it’s up to us to put that course back on track.

I love their little munching sounds.
Cool video! Cicadas are an amazing species with unique spiritual properties.
good video
Something to look forward to in winter!
5:28 - make sure to cover the front of the nesting area with a metal mesh that’s big enough for the bees to get through but not big enough for birds. If you don’t birds will eat the cocoons.
‼️Remember that mason bees and leaf cutter bees use the same nesting sites but aren’t hatching and active at the same time each year! Do NOT wash the cocoons of leaf cutter bees as they are not waterproof, unlike the mason bee cocoons.
War medicine
I'm from suburban Philly and always enjoyed seeing the lightning bugs in June/July. In recent years they have been in marked decline. This year, so far, they have been totally absent. It's eerie.
delicious in a stir fry
Enjoyed this video I seen one outside my house yesterday I didn’t noticed we had wood peckers in our neighborhood so I am very happy to see Jehovah creation !!
❤ lovely just lovely :D
that stuff is the devil!
I wish when people talk about this plant they knew what they are talki g about. They always show the road side plant. That is not the teasel used for carding. The type used for carding has hooked spines. Not the straight spines on the roadside plants.
So cool we just a bunch today in Montreal, Canada! A first for me and my wife. Our research led us here!
This is an amazing video GOD BLESS YOU
How do you build that flower
I bought a house last year and when late winter hit, this came up everywhere...almost half of my yard! How do I get rid of it in an area so big?
Keep pigs. They will eat all of the celandine with the corns as well.
It is an invasive plant that smoothers out native desired plants. DO NOT PLANT! REMOVE ALL PLANTS AND SOIL. CHECK FOR CORMS. DESPOSE OF PLANT, SOIL, AND ANY CROMS IN GARBAGE. DO NOT COMPOST.
Love your videos!
Cool video!
Bummer, spotted some of this while out on a walk with the dog. Was considering it for the garden but guess I’ll skip 😅
I actually have some in my garden but I keep it in control🌼🌼🌼🌼 but yeah you're right I have been burned with putting wild stuff that's too invasive and it takes over
Is that pond you're on ephemeral? Are there species of fairy shrimp that persist all year long in stable waters? Or do they go "dormant" during the warmer seasons?
A perfect video to clearly explain this process to kids at school. Brilliantly done. Thank you!
Is there a recommended way to catch fairy shrimp, and how long do they tolerate being in a container before needing released?
Very good video. 👍❤️
What amazing information you share, thanks so much I really appreciate it
Great info & advice , however do you leave the tubes outside in the winter ( I live in Colorado) or do use harvest the tubes & cacoons & bring them inside until the spring ? ? Thx again , new to this . 👍⚾️
My goodness, Tess, you are amazing. What an absolutely incredible video that has demystified a topic which terrified me at school. You have explained it amazingly well.
Terrified? 😅😅😅
@@jeremybear573 Well you know the teachers had a habit over over complicating everything, dragging in on and never explaining it well. I know they didn't have visual learning like this and only a black board and some chalk but my goodness I struggled with it. It probably didn't help daydreaming in the class because I just wanted to be at home watching Rambo First Blood part 2 1985 and Arnold Schwarzenegger's Commando 1985
Does it hurt a tree to take its sap?
Great explanation!
Recently Me & my zoology students observed them in large numbers in B. N. N. College water pool costructed for typha plantation at botanical gardens. I'm very happy to see them. Your video definitely helps me to know detailed information about these wonderful creature. Thanks.
Great
So not suet
How do you know if the bat has rabies?
Aiyooo, SILVERFISH
Thanks for great information. I'm interested in providing housing for mason bees but nothing else. I could clean and wash their tubes after season and/or provide new ones. Since I am not interested in propagation of these bees, shoud I not even start with the hotel? Thanks.
It looks like a snail without the eyes
Thank you for interesting video.😊😊😊 Best entomology wishes.😮😮😮
I will keep this in mind in case I get Isekai'd.
Great Video <3 <3 <3
They are also supported by my very nearby quarter acre frog pond! I frequently see one or two patrolling the shore. Everyone needs to eat. I just hope they leave a few frogs and tadpoles for us to enjoy as well.
How bo you now
I love them, they look so cute
Mother nature ♥️preserve and protect ecosystems, wildlife and natural habitats♥️
I was able to find your followup video, Part 2. Seems quite involved, but certainly worth it! Hoping this adventure is successful. Thank you. Addendum: While shopping at Tractor Supply recently, I purchased a package of Dry Bee Feed. by HLH. Don't know if it's appropriate for Masons, but it was inexpensive, so I went ahead and got it. Your opinion(s) appreciated!
I think that was for Honeybees, but might work for Mason’s as well.
Beeeeee’s are frweakkkkkkkks 🤭👀
Awwww that's cute! 🥰🦇
absolutely great work. Thanks for sharing
