The cinematography, storytelling and editing of your videos is gorgeous. Dani, I am mesmerized, much Aloha from Hawaii.
I love how the squirrels wrap their tails up on their backs.
Thank you, SquirrelSpace, for sponsoring this video.
Red squrials like hedgehog are national treasures, we should do all we can to help them stay and thrive in this more and more modernised world.
This was amazing! I always worry that you'll feel pressure to find your photography target, so please know I value your experience and the beautiful nature you are in just as much. But what an incredible surprise ending, and those ear tufts!!! I'm so appreciative that you added such interesting conservation information. It's heartwarming to know there are groups and individuals out there who are working so hard to keep squirrels and the tree's that are their homes plentiful.
💚🌱💚
Talk about LONG ear tufts!!! HAHAHAHA!!!! Squirrels are likely the most fun animal to watch in their natural habitat!! They are incredibly intelligent as well! When the trees were trimmed here at my house while I was a very young child, they knocked over a nest of grey squirrels and one of the babies fell out. With such a long fall it amazes me that the little guy survived! He didn't even have his eyes open yet. We took him in after figuring out his mother would not take him back and named him Curly. Curly was a guard squirrel!!! Anyone who didn't live in our house got jumped on and ran around like a tree trunk. Sometimes people would run screaming from the house, others would laugh so hard they soon had tears streaming down their face. Curly showed me just how smart these beautiful creatures can be, when he was older we would leave the window open. He left in the morning and returned every night to cuddle up with us on the couch. More of their intelligence was shown on the feeder when she got to it and sniffed and sniffed, being fully aware of the pine marten!! A reintroduced squirrel may not have seen a pine marten before, but she knew instinctively that smell was a bad one and she NEEDED to be extra cautious!
I'm so happy to know there are folks in the world who understand the importance of every single animal and insect living amongst us and helping to keep nature's perfect balance, well uhhh.......BALANCED!!! The work you're doing Dani is so extraordinarily important!!!! I thank you from the bottom of what's left of my melted heart!!!!!!! Thank you for loving wildlife enough to have the patience to be a photographer and thank you for the painstaking effort of editing and all that so we can come along and watch your journeys finding and documenting these absolutely amazing little fur babies!!!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!! This was one of the best uploads you've done my friend and I enjoyed it very very much!!!
Dani, I lack words to describe the beauty of your films, your skills as videographer, photographer, narrator, your patience, dedication and your profound love for the red squirrels, therefor I say WOW!
Oh, I agree with you.
High production values and great story-telling. Really enjoying these vlogs. Thank you!
Thank you squirrel space 🐿, for supporting this channel 🌰
Great job! I couldn't help thinking at the beginning when you were having trouble finding the squirrels that they were probably up in a hole in a tree cursing about how cold and wet it was in Scotland. 😂🤣😂
"Tell me that didn't melt your heart" Sorry, I can't.
I think that this is probably your best video yet, though I may be biased, having lived on a bus in northern Scotland years ago. This made me painfully nostalgic.
So glad you finally managed to capture the Red Squirrel, they were saving the best till last for you Dani.
In the midst of the cold, a community of cute squirrels hides many. I really want to call this place a beautiful fairy tale land. It is different from many places on our planet. It's full of beautiful nature.
In a decade or so, when the tree bridge is built between the forests, it would be so cool to see a follow up video! Thank you for everything that you do- what an astoundingly beautiful video. And yes, the squirrels did melt my heart. ❤
Mine TOO
Thank you for another beautiful red squirrel video. I have a red squirrel visiting my garden in Fife in Scotland….I bought a squirrel feeder and filled it with nuts but she just ignores this and instead hangs upside down on the birds peanut feeder and takes the peanuts. Maybe one day she’ll use the squirrel feeder?! 😂
Truly enjoyable piece! As I will never have an opportunity to travel to the Scottish Highlands you were my eyes and ears☺️. Beautiful video and photography as always. And to add a Western comment…they walk down the trees like Spider-Man 🥳
Hello from Indiana! A great story and story telling! I love hearing that people are working to restore land back to its natural state, before humans (in most cases) destroyed it unfortunately. It will be interesting to see over the coming years how reintroducing red squirrels to the environment how they effect it and it brings back something that has been missing from the woods since there absence! Great job, and love seeing and hearing that your love of these fun little tree acrobats as caught the attention of others that love and want to help them! Look forward to seeing more! 👍👏👏👏🤘
that's the most beautiful nature documentary i have ever seen; you are so incredibly talented.
absolute fantastic footage and presentation in general. big thanks for sharing this story and your experience. also love it that baby pear is always with you ;)
Beautiful footage. It would be great even if you did not find the squirrels. But the squirrel photographs at the end were astounding. I come from a land full of red squirrels but I never saw one eating while hanging on the hind legs. Great job! 👍
Absolutely melts your heart! And it's very peaceful watching squirrels in general!
Squirells are fun to watch.
They are such a unique and beautiful squirrel. The places in Scotland were magical. I really like the photos of the ducks too. I cannot get enough of your beautiful videos. Thank you so much for doing this.
These are legit television broadcast grade videos. Such a pleasure to watch these and wind down after a tiring day. Lovely.
They are the world's most adorable little creatures!
Ive now fallen in love with your family of red squirrels! Thanks Dani
OMG! Those Scottish Red Squirrels are so stinking cute!!😍💕
One heart here, truelly melted. Thank you Dani. Haste ye back!
Just wonderful. Thank you so much for this hard work. Much appreciated.
A beautiful video, Dani, especially the last minutes. I passed by both Ben Shieldaig and northern Cairngorm in 2016.
Regarding translocations - between 1989-1993, 93 juvenile Red Kites, all of them from Sweden, were translocated to different sites in Scotland in an effort to reintroduce an extinct species. Despite the fact that several of them were poisoned by stupid people that don't like foxes and crows, Red Kites are now green listed, as far as I know. //Per L
Lovely. Beautiful footage of the country I live in. 🏴 Now in the mood to go to work. Well It is a Monday.
Glad you finally found some red squirrels. The photography was beautiful, Dani.
Sheer pleasure! Thank you, Dani!
What an awesome channel just been through quite a few videos. I wish we had red squirrels here in Hertfordshire they are so cute. There's so much more nature to explore up there in Scotland add to that amazing landscape photography too. Good luck have fun.
Bonjour Dani, je suis française et j'ai admiré chacun de vos documentaires. La douceur de votre voix est incroyable et on écoute avec passion, les évolutions.
Merci également à la personne qui vous montre en action. Superbe. Je suis une grande fan de votre travail. Merci à vous de prendre soin de l'environnement.
I love the pictures of your red squirrels. They are so very cute. Thanks for sharing
20:20 Upside down holding on with two rear legs, and eating in that position haha so interesting and fun to watch.. 👏👏
Wow, I loved every second of it....amazing cinematography skills , lens are so sharp and crisp clear 🥰🥰😍😍😍😍
So beautiful, and wonderful music.
Hallo Dani,
i am from Germany. I can feel your enthusiasm for the Red Squirrel in each of your videos. The videos are absolutely brilliant. Your patience must be limitless.
Thank you, keep doing that.
That waterfall shot around 2:30 or so, was just one of the most amazing things I've ever seen!!! Wow!
a lot of work has put in this production well done Team Dani Connor.
it's amazing to see you speak how calm you are it's realy a joy to watch this
Beautiful photography and videography as always ......... when you want a squirrel there aren't any, ....... then they all come along at once - just like buses.
Totally a heart opener this video and your love for the little rascals (Suirrels) 🐿😍! What you love you would project and your love is projected in to these videos. Congratulations as a squirrel protector ! Doing a great job!
So beautiful. The squirrels in the end brought a big smile to my face.
The bravest i ever was, was spending a month in Scotland with a friend stationed at Edzel. I was overjoyed to find your video in my favorite place in the world. I found Scotland so lovely. We didn't do tourest things. We just drove from town to town hiking and spending time in the beauty of nature. So happy red squirrels are being reintroduced. I hope it is successful and leads the way for many squirrels to flourish there.❤
That was truly out of this world
Very nice filming my friend.Beautiful upload 👏
Yes, I love the way you tell the story and the way you bring the nature to us. My deepest respect and thanks to the professionals and all voluteers who are taking care of the nature. For sure, it melt hy heart.
Beautifull shots. spectacular views, unbeliveble squirrels and what a wonderfull girl!
16:37 - 16:53 Niiiice work! Duck shots are so lovely!!!! From an editing standpoint... I think this is one of your best videos yet!
What a magnificent educational experience… I adore the squirrels on my property and I can’t get enough of your videos. Thank you for showing us the value of these adorable little forest friends.! I call my favorite red squirrel “THE BOSS” because he earned it and everyone else knows it too😂. I enjoy offering them treats as much as they love receiving them. They have wonderful personalities and I’m hopelessly in love with them. ❤️🐿
I admire your patience in waiting for the red squirrels to show up. Great footage and great photos. Hopefully some of them will be in next years calendar. I also liked that you took pics of waterfowl, which is one of my favorite subjects to take photos of.
I wish that I would have had a camera the day that I saw a woodduck paddling down the edge of a creek with 13 babies in tow. It was an incredible thing to witness.
I’ve lived in Scotland for over 5 years and I’ve only ever seen 3 red squirrels. Then again I only just bought a telephoto lens this year 😅 they are so cute, I hope I am lucky enough to see one.
The duck photos were truly magnificent!
Beautiful video Dani. Thank you.
It sure did warm my heart.
Hi Dani 😊 🐿
The wait was worth it, a wonderful video, such beautiful landscapes and a nice atmosphere by the fireplace, love your voice and the music, nature conservation and then finally the red squirrels, thank you very much for that, have a good time and warm greetings from Andreas 🐿 ❤
I've never done wildlife photography in the wild but I imagine it's long hours/days/weeks of waiting. Gorgeous images of the red squirrels and the Squirrelus aquaticus 😆
Thank you for highlighting the work of the trust and bringing their important conservation work to our attention.
Love the red squirrels.
Excellent video, nice shots and so well-edited! Interesting commentary too.
Those squirrels are so cute. In Sask Canada my grandfather would camp at the same spot for all his years and the squirrel family there got to know him and accepted him every summer. I have fond memories of Grandpa's squirrels.
🍃🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🍃Well done! Have fun exploring the wildlife on your road trip to Sweden it sounds like a wonderful Dirtbag adventure (Patagonia Term). If you ever find your way to Canada let me know we have lots of wildlife here to explore. We can do a canoe trip in Algonquin and Killarney Provincial Park. Vancouver Island and the East Coast also have amazing nature and Wildlife but all our provinces has its unique beauty. 🤗🍃
Red squirrels are some of my favorite animals! I love their little ear tufts and the way they flatten their tails against the back of their heads when they're eating
I live in an area where I have only internet by LTE really. So I need to spend my gbs wisely. And all the time I see a video at least I crank up the resolution from 480 to 1k to to really acknowledge your amazing and heart melting work
Lovely creatures, beautifully captured.
Great video, Danni. You're a brilliant ambassador for the squirrels 👍👍👍 and a superb photographer too 🙂
Some wonderful work going on in Scotland to rewild the landscape and restore native forest cover and species diversity. Great video. Keep them coming Dani
👍🏻A wonderful landscape and a wonderful video👍🏻
Exactly my thoughts as many before me. The professional and mesmerizing photography, filming and narrating skills of this video are really astounding and captivating. This was such a wonderful Sunday view. Restoring faith in humanity. Thank you, Dani, for all your work!
Beautiful red squirrels !!!! Greetings from Argentina !!!
Have you been to Ireland, there are hundreds of red squirrels in my local wood in south Tipperary, I feed them every day and have thousands of pictures of them.
I love your sense of humour... "after discovering aquatic squirrels and big foot"
Beautiful shots, great editing and narration. Cinematic quality on YT 👍Probably a lot of hard work, but the result - this movie has been a pleasure to watch and it made my day 😃
These SweetHearts are SO CUTE!!❤❤❤❤
Totally melted my heart. I am donating to this wonderful cause.
AWESOME Dani, Thank you for another GREAT video. I'm glad that I found your channel. You have a fan in Ohio U.S.A.
As always, a wonderful video, thank you Dani! Hopefully they will repopulate and thrive in their new habitat in Scotland! Those little guys are so adorable, our feeder ist frequently visited by our red squirrels (Germany).
Dani that was amazing, you can't beat the Scottish Highlands.
Thank You now a subscriber.
Great scenes and even great explanation and stories!
The video and narrating simply brilliant, thanks for sharing. Dani, you have a very relaxing voice.
So beautiful to see the Red Squirrels in such an amazing detail. Thank you Dani.
They are so beautiful! Can’t wait for more! ❤️
20:23 - Got a little show-off there!
I'll just add to the growing chorus that this is one of, if not THE best video you've ever created. Just magnificent!
Enjoyed this so much, Dani and the Red Squirrel Trust!
Well done, beautiful landscapes and wildlife shots. Those duck pictures are something special, i love those buggers and never saw pictures like yours.
Fantastic. Thank you. 👍📷😎
It melt for sure!!! I love this tiny animals and cant stand waiting till your next video. Thank you so much from Germany.
New sub here all the way from sunny SoCal. Being a squirrel lover, I’m really enjoying this channel and there’s something quite relaxing hearing the sound of Dani’s voice.
Magical Dani! Thank you
Dani, i love your channel because of the way you present your videos, are simply outstanding! Like yourself i love red squirrels and i'm not sure if you're aware or visited Anglesey, North Wales, as we have fair amount of them scattered around the island.
Keep up the great work you're doing and thank you for sharing, your wonderful story telling videos with us all.
Captivating from beginning to end you are such a great storyteller, presenter and photographer/videographer my heart wasn`t so much melted as vapourised ;)
Hi Dani. If and when you go back to Scotland there is town called Kirkcudbright there is a forest area with beautiful wildlife red Squirrels it’s in the Galloway Forest area. There is an area where there is red dear up pass Clatteringshaws Loch and Otters up around Range Road so much wildlife it’s beautiful.
Amazing, thanks. Worth having to have patience. Yes melted my heart ❤️, wonderful video, thanks a lot for your patience. Andi 👋
So gorgeous...wonderful pics
I was already thinking of joining Trees for life as a volunteer, but now I 'll do it for sure in my next holidays
Thanks for this wonderful film
Yesterday I was honestly wondering where Dani would be and when a new video would come out. I so much look forward to watching this video and it's great to see you back!
It's brilliant. This is of a cinematic quality and detail that is unknown to UA-cam. The amount of work and patience is not to be underestimated. Just know it's appreciated and seen.
@@japsurdejjvvhh7635 I agree
I love the little contented smiles on both the Red Squirrels and the ducks. So precious. Stunning photos!
Caz-Kat-Kalie and Connor Wild - how many girls inspired today,one wonders.
Beautiful photography. The squirrels are so pretty. Thank you!
