Dani, My partner adored squirrels; he passed away, but before he did, I had introduced him to your channel and we would watch together, squealing over the squirrels...I bought your calendar for the first time last year as a gift to him, but he passed before we got the chance to put it up. Every month when I turned a new page, I would show him and tell him about my visits to our local park to visit "our squirrels". I just received my calendar for 2024 and I will do the same and show him each month's photo as I turn the pages. I hope to buy your calendar for as long as you create them--as a gift to him. Thank you for all that you do. This video has me sobbing, but I feel so connected to him and honoured to watch the beautiful and heartwarming efforts you are making/creating. Thank you and much love, from Lee-Anne (and Eddie) in Toronto, Canada
I’m so so sorry you lost your partner but I’m so happy you were able to share your love for squirrels together! They’re very endearing and easy to love 🐿️🫶🏻
I rescued a baby grey squirrel in New York state USA. It's eyes were even closed, it was so young. Fed it warm cow's milk from a toy baby doll bottle till it could then eat soft cereal, and then nuts and bird seeds. What acrobatic little people! and Such High Energy levels! Let it free with an alternative food and water shelter, outdoors. It almost immediately found it's home in the wild. Love it Forever ♥
I get tears in my eyes when I see the little baby squirrel. Five years ago, when I was walking here at home, a little squirrel came running to me, it climbed up on top of me and sat on my shoulder and refused to go away. It sat on my shoulder for several hours as we walked around looking for its mother. We contacted vets in different places, all said the same thing: let nature take its course... I took care of him 24/7, fed him around the clock and he grew and felt good, he is the nicest animal I have ever seen.When he was full-grown, we brought him back to nature. We visited him a few times afterwards and he came when we called him. Hope he's still alive Love him with all my heart hes name is Pelle
@@Angela-x6omost vets don't give a shit about wildlife, no owner to charge! Even though they are supposed to have a duty of care to wildlife in need but that usually means just to put to sleep!
I am always afraid that going to the vet means "putting the suffering animal down". And never giving the animal a chance to recover with a bit of love and care. Sadly, time is money in this world today. I remember seeing some kids bringing some baby squirrels to a vet because they fell off a tree. I knew in my heart of hearts what their destinies would be. I wish I could have just taken them from the kids and nursed them.
@@DaniConnorWild why do you remove my comments that its against the law to keep wild animals locked in your home in Sweden???you MUST contact a wildlife rehabilitator!
@@hannahan3440 Oh shut up you miserable busy body. Mind your own damn business. Go get a life. It's literally hard to believe there are human beings on this earth as miserable & disgusting as you.
About 20 years ago, I also raised squirrel. Funny, I also gave him milk through a syringe without the needle. Great minds think alike!!! The hardest part is as they get older, they get more wild. They pee and poop everywhere. You just need to deal. And eventually, you want to transition them to outside. But there are many dangers for them (so hard to let them go). I gave him a bird house to sleep in outside. When I later visited, I found a squirrel like him. Called to him. And he came down the tree and climbed on my shoulder (with his sharp claws). Anyway....Good luck!!!!
His mother couldn't have wished for a more caring creature to raise her baby. Thank you Dani, Jill and Juan for giving him the best possible start into life, for telling your common story, so happy for you that you got the chance to come so close to your favourite species. Feeling attached too, now excited to learn how the little one first makes a mess of your home and then conquers the wild ☺💚
Not going to lie but your video brought a tear in my eye and I’m a grown man . The world needs more people like you , thanks for being so kind hearted and for the great video !
Hello from Austria....After raising over 300 squirrels in the last few years, I can only say that it is probably the most beautiful experience. I wish you all the love that my squirrels give every time to me.
@@Iceguideda kann ich auch zu antworten. Hab auch schon 2 Eichhörnchen ü, die aus dem Nest gefallen sind, versorgt und erzogen. Klar ist es schade, aber es ist ein besseres Gefühl, sie dort leben zu lassen, wo es für sie vorgesehen ist. Ich kann dem Eichhörnchen viel geben, aber nicht ansatzweise das, was es eigentlich braucht. Außerdem hätte es bei mir nicht die Möglichkeit, eine Familie zu gründen. Zum Besuchen: Ein Eichhörnchen kam über einige Wochen jeden Tag vorbei und hat sich was zu Essen geschnappt und ist für einige Zeit da geblieben und wieder gegangen. Irgendwann aber nicht mehr. Man hat es allerdings oft in dem Bäumen gesehen.
Hi….. ich dachte am Anfang über Wochen hinweg das es verdammt schwer wird sie Auszuwildern, man beobachtet sie einige Tage in einer Voliere (dort wo sie Ausgewilderd werden) dann öffnet man die Türe und ich sah bei meinen ersten Eichhörnchen wie es innerhalb von Sekunden 10 Meter hoch am Baum saß und mich anschaute….das war einer der schönsten Momente überhaupt und das motiviert mich seit Jahren Eichhörnchen Gesund zu pflegen und Aufzuziehen….
You are a saint. We found one that's eyes were closed and extremely close to death. I searched everywhere for a rescue with no luck so she's with me now. I honestly can't believe she survived. I knew so little, but it's been a couple months now and she's sooo healthy and happy. Next is her release which absolutely terrifies me. We can't do it here because we have a cat and dog...but I'm wanting to leave her cage outside so she can come back to it if necessary.
I really enjoy your channel. Very well done. As a Photographer myself I can appreciate and admire your work. More humans need to realize we are not above nature, but a part of it.
My wife took in two baby squirrels a couple years ago and they changed my mind on squirrels forever. They are smarter than dogs, more affectionate than cats, and crack me up every day. They even can potty train
Thank you Dani. You are a great example of how humans should be as custodians of this world. Ever since I befriended a squirrel 12 years ago, I had visits from his descendants every year. His offspring take their children to our porch just outside my kitchen, showing them where their humans put their food. The older squirrels travel deeper into the forest as new one comes into the world, but every year, we're lucky enough to get to know their babies. We also have a large variety of birds who discovered the same feeding ground. I can sit at my kitchen table watching these animals all day, roaming around outside my kitchen window. Thanks btw, for some tips on what other snacks I can offer my little friends, beside the nuts and seeds they are served every day.
It's no surprise...into your life came this opportunity to rear a baby squirrel. What dedication 👏 Your inspirational experiences w the red squirrels continue to fuel your work. Makes total sense. Perhaps the red squirrels are your spirit animal
What a cliffhanger at the end 😉. Thank you so much Dani for sharing this adorable baby with us 🐿😍! I‘m so happy this little guy found you (and Jill). Can‘t wait for the next episode. Lots of love to you and all my fellow squirrel lovers out there 💫.
I was a Land Surveyor for 27 years. My wife and I raised and released a male and then a female. The male came back a lot. Then he bit me and made himself independent. A few months later when we released the female, she came back until mating season, she built a nest in a hollow tree, had a family, and went wild and free. Ruined my squirrel hunting. Forever. What amazing animals. He used to sleep between us on his back. Thank God for that experience. It led us to rescuing and keeping abandoned starving dogs. I had 6 of them for 7 years. Squirrels and Dogs actually love you. I wear tiger stripes and sit with a big camera in the back yard. Thank you for this video. Grace to you, friend.
Fantastic! You did the right thing. I live in Solna, Sweden and every weekday when I go to the Ulriksdals commuter train station towards my work I come across two red squirrels. They are like greeting me in the morning. When I go home they are not there. But the next morning they are back.
Hello from Northern California. Thank you, Dani for sharing this video and for taking care of this sweet squirrel; squirrels are one of many favorite animals of mine, personally. I am going to share this video with my students, who are always curious about the squirrels that like to show up at our classroom door during lunch time, which I instruct them not to feed the squirrel cheddar bunnies, strawberry yogurt and so on. Just watching you take care and nurture this little one, will be a delight for my students to watch. Thank you, I wish you all the best, lots of love and abundance in life.
It's very hard to find things to hold my attention even for 2 minutes these days. I was totally immersed and invested in this story. I don't know who is more lucky, the squirrel or DC. A perfect parring. I cannot wait for the next video. Watching this video renews my confidence in the potential of human goodness.
You have to be invested in loving the animals you care for. That's what keeps them alive. It is hard when they do leave you. But it's worth it when you know you've given them the chance to live. 🙏❤️
Hi Dani , Queen of the squirrels 🤗 What a great and adorable new video, wonderful scenes with the little baby squirrel, thank you so much for sharing Dani, I'm looking forward to the next chapter 🐿❤❤
Thanks Dani for a new great show. I am so happy my 2024 squirrel calendar just arrived in the mail. I am so looking forward to putting it up on the wall and enjoy the photos. This is such a great channel! My hat of for your genuine enthusiasm and your awesome wildlife photography. I encourage every subscriber to support your fantastic work you share with us . Personally I will buy your merch.
It must have been difficult letting him back into the wild. You did an absolutely amazing job caring for this little one and getting him back to where he should be. Well done Dani!
You're a legend Dani. Leaving London having only just arrived to go back to care for this little guy. I'm a photographer as well and also have a calendar in which I'm raising money by donating a pound from each calendar to help the reds here in the Lake District. If we all do a little bit it makes a big difference. 😊🐿🥰
Wow! I’m speechless. You have a heart of gold. Such kindness. This is why I joined your Patreon; to help you help them. What a great and heart warming video.
If there is one person on the planet who should be blessed with the opportunity to help this little squiggle, it's you Dani. I haven't been by for a while but I am still seeing some of what you do. Peace. Stan
Bless your beautiful heart and soul!! You are a true humanitarian!! Any man who steals your heart will be a Lucky man indeed!!! Rock on you incredible lady!!!?
You are an amazing person and so caring the world needs more people like you Dani to make it a better place for us all to live and bring up our children to respect nature.
This brings back such sweet childhood memories! When I was a kid in the 50's and 60's, I lived in a suburb outside Stockholm. Our house was the last but one before the big forest took over. During these years the, as the community expanded, more houses were built and trees were felled. Many squirrel nests fell to the ground and babies were abandoned. At least that was what we believed at the time. Our family always had a lot of animals, which we were known for in the area. So when someone found squirrel babies, they brought them to us. I think that we had 7 or 8, one or two at the time. Some were very young, without fur and with their eyes still closed, and they did not always make it. I remember that I mourned one of them more than my grand parents who had recently passed. I had such bad conscience for this, I was about ten and clearly understood that my grandparents were more important, but... I remember the feeling to this day. :( But most of all they brought the family endless joy, with their antics, and always running up your back to the spot where you could not reach it. Our dog, a fat old dachshound, had very mixed feelings. She normally hated squirrels, but understood that these squirrels were family. When they gradually were rewilded, it came to a point where the dog brain could no longer decide what they were. We have old 8mm films where the squirrels chase her on the lawn and ride piggyback, like a rodeo. Thanks for your lovely photos! Nature is wonderful, and childhood memories like I described, eventually formed my life and inspired me to become a biologist. Per Cronholm
That was truly a heartwarming story, can’t wait for the next chapter !!!! This past year I have really enjoyed the 2023 calendar ! I now have the 2024 edition and I am really looking forward to more beautiful pictures ! I love also how on the new calendar you have a little story on each page !
That was adorable Dani!🤗🥰🐿️ thank you for having taken such good care of this sweet little furry friend. Thank’s to be so dedicated for animals and to showing the beauty of this World.😊
Lovely to see, Dani ... he certainly knows what the syringe is for! They have lovely personalities. This one is divine - and so are you for taking care of him as you're doing.
So many bad things going on in the world, and this made me cry in its stark contrast to the desperation I feel deep inside, but at the same time gave me some well needed hope for mankind. Thanks for rescuing such an innocent little soul. ❤
Imagine if we all treated Nature with this kind of Love, Respect and Kindness that you show us.. the World Need us to do better and I hope that more sees that ONE person can make a difference and make help Mother Nature❤

beautiful. beautiful rescue, compassion, sympathy and care. happiness is everywhere. thank you so much I relished tge video and the play of baby squirrel. it's feeding and eating noise is fantastic.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for caring for this baby. You're truly a treasure. People like you make the world a better place. That's so rare. Thank you again.
Love this video and so grateful you got the opportunity to become a Red Squirrel mommy and raise this precious little gift to the world up. Thank you for being so kind, doing this when I know how much time it takes and for filming and sharing with us. Happy Holidays 💙
Fabulous....the universe has allowed you to have this amazing experience for reasons that are obvious to anyone who watches your channel...as a kid, my mom raised 2 red-breasted robins that feel from their nests and it was an amazing thing to be a part of...earning the love and trust of a wild creature is a uniquely rewarding experience....best of luck to you and your squirrel ❤
This is the best story I’ve seen all year! I did a similar thing with a kitten and she lived with me for almost 19 years. You’re awesome to devote so much to animals. Thank you !
Thank you for taking care of this adorable little fur ball. Cats, dogs & other pets like squirrels & chipmunks are a gift to humans & one of the greatest joys in this life. I know its a huge commitment but despite the challenges & sacrifice it’s all worth it. One thing that makes me livid are those who give up or abandon. You make it work no matter what. People who abuse or abandon are scum. I don’t know how a person could live with themselves. Anyway, cheers & thank you for sharing your story & I’m glad that your squirrel has an incredible squirrel Mon😆😁👍
You have such good energy ! I love your videos ! Amazing how you saved the baby red squirrel :) You are amazing !!!! I grew up in England and from elementary school they taught me to feed the birds in winter. Now in Canada I think I'm the only person in my neighborhood to continue feeding birds and squirrels with sunflower seeds at this time of the year :) I wish there were more people like you in this world.
Hello Dani, what a great story. This is an adventure. Simply become a squirrel mother overnight. A big “thank you” to your neighbor Jill (I hope I got the name right). Every mother has to learn what to do. That is normal. Especially when the baby is so different. I'm already looking forward to the next episodes. I hope everything turns out well. We often have squirrels in our garden. They go to the bird feeder and also to the squirrel feeder that we bought especially for them. The birds also use both feeders.😊😍 We also have a water point, which is also well used by everyone. I wish you a nice Advent season. Kind regards from Germany
Ey up me duck. Still watching and thoroughly enjoying your videos. What an absolutely prescious, beautiful little creature, bless you for caring for him. Hope you and yours had a good Christmas 👍🙂
Dani, Thanks for bringing me a mysterious world of squirrels. I started my dream of becoming a wildlife photographer two months ago with a starting point at squirrels. My motivation comes out from your outstanding work. Thank you and....thank you! Keep going to share your amazing and beautiful passion to the world.
How beautiful that baby Red Squirrel is and the care you have given him. I have your calendar and haven’t looked at the pictures yet as I wanted to be surprised every month. You have a special gift caring for these beautiful creatures, thank you for all that you do. ❤❤
This is so beautiful to see, my heart is bursting watchng this little fella make a full recovery. How can you not be emotionally invested in this sweet little boy - you should be really proud of yourself for everything you have done to give him the life he deserves.

Currently, the world needs more images like these. You are a wonderful person. You deserve all the good things life can give you.
Couldn't say it better myself. ❤

This brings back such sweet childhood memories! When I was a kid in the 50's and 60's, I lived in a suburb outside Stockholm. Our house was the last but one before the big forest took over. During these years the, as the community expanded, more houses were built and trees were felled. Many squirrel nests fell to the ground and babies were abandoned. At least that was what we believed at the time. Our family always had a lot of animals, which we were known for in the area. So when someone found squirrel babies, they brought them to us.
I think that we had 7 or 8, one or two at the time. Some were very young, without fur and with their eyes still closed, and they did not always make it. I remember that I mourned one of them more than my grand parents who had recently passed. I had such bad conscience for this, I was about ten and clearly understood that my grandparents were more important, but... I remember the feeling to this day. :(
But most of all they brought the family endless joy, with their antics, and always running up your back to the spot where you could not reach it. Our dog, a fat old dachshound, had very mixed feelings. She normally hated squirrels, but understood that these squirrels were family. When they gradually were rewilded, it came to a point where the dog brain could no longer decide what they were. We have old 8mm films where the squirrels chase her on the lawn and ride piggyback, like a rodeo.
Thanks for your lovely photos! Nature is wonderful, and childhood memories like I described, eventually formed my life and inspired me to become a biologist.

Beautiful story, lovely person and strong too. Huge respect Geoff
That was truly a heartwarming story, can’t wait for the next chapter !!!! This past year I have really enjoyed the 2023 calendar ! I now have the 2024 edition and I am really looking forward to more beautiful pictures ! I love also how on the new calendar you have a little story on each page !
How cute is this! Things are about to get really squirrelly for a while around this kind lady’s home!
That was adorable Dani!🤗🥰🐿️ thank you for having taken such good care of this sweet little furry friend. Thank’s to be so dedicated for animals and to showing the beauty of this World.😊
Lovely to see, Dani ... he certainly knows what the syringe is for! They have lovely personalities. This one is divine - and so are you for taking care of him as you're doing.
So many bad things going on in the world, and this made me cry in its stark contrast to the desperation I feel deep inside, but at the same time gave me some well needed hope for mankind. Thanks for rescuing such an innocent little soul. ❤
Imagine if we all treated Nature with this kind of Love, Respect and Kindness that you show us.. the World Need us to do better and I hope that more sees that ONE person can make a difference and make help Mother Nature❤
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful story ❤❤❤
My heart just melted when I saw you feeding the squirrel. ❤
Thank you for doing this and for sharing. I am all in on this story ❤
You are doing an amazing job caring for little Roo, I feel sad he lost his mum. May she rest peacefully
You're amazing Dani. I'm always amazed of people who are gentle caring of animals especially wild ones. They really need us and we them.
What a privilege to rescue a baby squirrel sent to the ground in a storm. So adorable, fun and affectionate.
Pure *love* is all around me! ❤❤❤ Absolut adorable cutie squirrel. Thank you so much for your help and sharing, Dani. ❤❤❤

Lovely video, and well done to Gill and well done to you as well ,luckily there are still kind people out there like you who still care for animals. ❤
I think I seen your video a long time ago, you are a squirrel girl..
Love to watch you again, you are very kind lady...
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for caring for this baby. You're truly a treasure. People like you make the world a better place. That's so rare. Thank you again.
Love this video and so grateful you got the opportunity to become a Red Squirrel mommy and raise this precious little gift to the world up. Thank you for being so kind, doing this when I know how much time it takes and for filming and sharing with us.
Happy Holidays 💙
Oh Dani! 🥰 I can't! His little sigh 13:13 His twitchy dreams! Thank you for bringing us this joy.
Fabulous....the universe has allowed you to have this amazing experience for reasons that are obvious to anyone who watches your channel...as a kid, my mom raised 2 red-breasted robins that feel from their nests and it was an amazing thing to be a part of...earning the love and trust of a wild creature is a uniquely rewarding experience....best of luck to you and your squirrel ❤
This is the best story I’ve seen all year! I did a similar thing with a kitten and she lived with me for almost 19 years. You’re awesome to devote so much to animals. Thank you !
Very sad for the mother… but absolutely brilliant for you and the youngster 👍🏻
Thank you for taking care of this adorable little fur ball. Cats, dogs & other pets like squirrels & chipmunks are a gift to humans & one of the greatest joys in this life. I know its a huge commitment but despite the challenges & sacrifice it’s all worth it. One thing that makes me livid are those who give up or abandon. You make it work no matter what. People who abuse or abandon are scum. I don’t know how a person could live with themselves. Anyway, cheers & thank you for sharing your story & I’m glad that your squirrel has an incredible squirrel Mon😆😁👍
You have such good energy ! I love your videos ! Amazing how you saved the baby red squirrel :) You are amazing !!!! I grew up in England and from elementary school they taught me to feed the birds in winter. Now in Canada I think I'm the only person in my neighborhood to continue feeding birds and squirrels with sunflower seeds at this time of the year :) I wish there were more people like you in this world.
Dani, this has been crafted so beautifully, truly a narrative poem!
Hello Dani, what a great story. This is an adventure. Simply become a squirrel mother overnight. A big “thank you” to your neighbor Jill (I hope I got the name right).
Every mother has to learn what to do. That is normal. Especially when the baby is so different. I'm already looking forward to the next episodes. I hope everything turns out well.
We often have squirrels in our garden. They go to the bird feeder and also to the squirrel feeder that we bought especially for them. The birds also use both feeders.😊😍
We also have a water point, which is also well used by everyone.
I wish you a nice Advent season.
Kind regards from Germany
Ey up me duck.
Still watching and thoroughly enjoying your videos. What an absolutely prescious, beautiful little creature, bless you for caring for him. Hope you and yours had a good Christmas 👍🙂
Dani,
Thanks for bringing me a mysterious world of squirrels. I started my dream of becoming a wildlife photographer two months ago with a starting point at squirrels. My motivation comes out from your outstanding work. Thank you and....thank you! Keep going to share your amazing and beautiful passion to the world.
How beautiful that baby Red Squirrel is and the care you have given him.
I have your calendar and haven’t looked at the pictures yet as I wanted to be surprised every month.
You have a special gift caring for these beautiful creatures, thank you for all that you do. ❤❤
The world needs more people like you ❤️
This is so beautiful to see, my heart is bursting watchng this little fella make a full recovery. How can you not be emotionally invested in this sweet little boy - you should be really proud of yourself for everything you have done to give him the life he deserves.
