    Chickadees are taking over! 😀
    BTW, here are the two charities I donated to for the month of February:
    The Ocean Cleanup ▶ theoceancleanup.com/donate/
    Nature Conservancy of Canada ▶ secure.natureconservancy.ca/site/Donation2?df_id=4285&mfc_pref=T&4285.donation=form1

      They've been reported on the decline here in the PNW, it might be possible that they've started to relocate? If the Moose are like our Elk, they'll suck your feeders dry...

    Here in England we have a program called "Spring Watch" and it follows the life of wildlife in certain locations and certain species, I could absolutely imagine you doing this as an American version. You put together very engaging videos, get shots and story and a voice that isn't annoying, but smooth and calming. P.s I want a Chickadee, from the name to eating out of your hand to being so tiny they are awesome!

    Lol, got me a good laugh there.
    The fact you can ‘hand feed’ birds like that (7:12) just amazes me.
    You montage of the Pine Grosbeaks at 9:41-10:02 was super cool; I honestly could watch compilations of bird footage with you talking over it for the duration of my weekend(s). Your editing style and voice go super well together too (I’m a person who usually uses subtitles, but I found that you are really easy to understand. It’s also always nice to have the option for subtitles too✨).

When I was a little girl I would spend hours watching them wishing I could have one for a pet. There's just something about them that I love...probably because they're small and round and adorable. 💕

When I put my bird feeder stations out I use multi colored acrylic squirrel baffles not to keep them out as much as a way to keep the food dry and the birds can hang out even on a rainy or snowy day. I placed them a little higher over each feeding station and put a solar light in it so it glows in the dark for the flying squirrels (the are the cutest things). I use to live in the woods in a cabin and I can't wait to move back there again. Enjoy and be safe and a BIG HELLO to Sparrow from my 3 cats Charlotte, George and Samantha. God's Blessings

    Good for you! Too many people today ignore or just don’t see the beauty of Nature!

    These beautiful scenes from your videos reminded me a saying in my culture: "You are paving your way to haven (if there is one)." Thanks for being kind and sharing.
