    These two were the old guard of the woods. I always loved how Finn seemed to think himself everyone's uncle, checking on the eggs of his neighbors but rarely ever taking aggression against anyone. ♡♡♡♡♡

    I just found your channel today and i'm very happy and grateful to found it. I really like your videos and the way you narrate the life of these animals. I also very admiring your work to protect and save owls and chicks. Your are not just a very good painter in his workshop and an editor but you take concrete actions to help animals and to transmit your passions. All those things combine together make you channel and your website very meaningful.
    I definitely like you channel and your work and i will purchase on your shop very soon to support you.
