      Lesley, I was truly delighted to see a new video from you today. And such a wonderful one to watch at that. I was saddened and a little worried at your departure and now hopeful that things have improved for you. Say 'hi' to all the white throats up there from me! I miss seeing my winter buddies hanging around my back porch. ❤

      ​@@LesleytheBirdNerd This year, I have only heard one a single time; maybe it's just a weird start to the year in Wisconsin, and they'll come back some time. I'd love to see one again, or maybe even get a photo of one. The day that I got into birdwatching was an interesting one, I had awoken to the sound of a blue jay and decided that I would try and get out of bed and pull out my camera to try and get a photo of it. I wasn't able to locate it, unfortunately, but on the way of trying to find it I had found a robin that I eventually decided to follow with my camera to see where it would go. I kept looking at the various birds I saw, learning which bird was what through google searches of its description, and even learning calls with some app that would say which birds' calls it heard, all the way until some sandhill cranes came, which stayed around until it got too dark to see anything much. That day, I had spent the entire day birdwatching, getting to see the sun rise, and set, all in one sitting, and learning quite a lot about birds. It was like something had flipped in my brain; going from someone with not much of an interest at all in birds, someone who had called a robin a cardinal, and couldn't name anything about them anyways, to someone who could recognize most of the birds I see, and even name a few facts about them. From there, too, I have developed quite an interest in learning more about birds, and a part of this jump into a new hobby was actually sparked by some of your videos, which worked in harmony with my obsession for the blue jay species.

      @@Rainbowkittenism What "exactly happened" is none of our business, but Lesley simply decided to step back from producing videos to concentrate on her family life. And to say "never give up your passion, even for family" is not fair at all, because you don't know the situation. Everyone should give Lesley the respect she deserves, after years of producing videos, and not make comments about what YOU want. Just enjoy the fact that there's one more (possibly final) video, that tells the complete story of a pair of birds that she wanted to tell, before moving on with her life.

I moved to NC a couple of years ago and wondered why I didnt see any Carolina Chickadees in Carolina but this spring I spotted one eating the birdseed I put out. Then I walked in my shop and there she was in a nest she'd built almost at eye level in a small empty box. I stayed out of there as much as I could and I think there are 5 in the nest. Been leaving some mealworms just for them every day and they are so big! They do look about to fledge but I dont have a camera set up nor do I see them more than the once a day I go in briefly to leave the worms. I'm so happy to see the little things, you've no idea.

    I fed chickadees by hand in Michigan - SUCH PERSONALITY! We had 40 acres of fruit trees and i would walk down the dirt road through the orchard and those little guys would follow me and do their call! One time i walked out to pick a peach and this little one stayed in front of me and kind of led me through the orchard - i then saw it land on an old peach tree stump about 4 feet high then disappear inside...i walked over and looked down in and there she was standing over her little brood of chicks looking straight up at me like she was waiting for me to come over and see them - she honestly looked expectant to show them off!

    Ten more little birdies to brighten up our world.
    It was tense, and riveting, when the first fledgling wouldn't eat in the beginning. I had to pause the video, thinking that little birdie wouldn't make it. Glad it started to eat - with its parents's persistence and instinct to continue to feed it.
    Then it was so funny seeing all the fledglings asleep but once they heard their mommy or daddy calling to give them food, they would abruptly open their mouths to receive the grubs.

    You had two of the most invasive birds trying to take over your Chickadee box. The House Sparrow and European Starling. I love all birds, but the Sparrow and Startling can be a little annoying at times. But I still love them. I’m glad it all worked out ❤️.

    Oh Leslie so glad to see a video again! And just in time! My favorite bird, the Chickadee, is busily building a nest in their box at this moment, here in Michigan. I have been hoping they would, and have been putting out fur from my (indoor) cat Lucy. Now their nest, ironically, is lined with her fur. I saw them sparring with a house wren yesterday after the wren entered the nest box. They really went after her and won the bird fight. Hopefully the wren won't get too aggressive. Also have six newly hatched Bluebird babies in my other box. Spring is here! Thanks Leslie ❤

    • @LesleytheBirdNerd
      @LesleytheBirdNerd  7 місяців тому
