Life in a Tiny House called Fy Nyth - Orphaned Moose Visits
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 бер 2021
- Living in the middle of a lot of wildlife has it's ups and downs. I always find nature amazing. Always efficient, never wasteful, often beautiful, sometimes cruel. But being in a place to see all those sides of nature is something many are not able to do. So I like to share what I see around me.

If you are new to my channel and Fy Nyth (Welsh for "My Nest") in general, welcome! I'm Ariel. I live off grid (as in no physical connection to public utilities) in a tiny house on wheels in the mountains of western Wyoming. I've been living this lifestyle since 2014 and love it! What will you find if you follow my channel and watch my videos?
Real life here. I try to show the good and the bad. The ups and the downs. What works, and what doesn't. The parts I love (most of it!), and the things that suck. Not just the showroom version of a tiny house, but everyday life in a tiny house. Not just the romantic idea of "homesteading" or off grid life, but the everyday details of this lifestyle. I split my own wood for heat, carry my water by hand, and attempt to grow as much of my own food as I can between the weather and wildlife here. I hope to help others learn from my mistakes and make life just a little easier for anyone else interested in pursuing a similar lifestyle.
I live in a somewhat harsh and cold climate, but enjoy the stunning sceanery and wildlife that I am surrounded by on a daily basis. You'll also see videos of of the nature and wildlife around my home. If you are interested in my photography or purchasing a photo, I'd love if you follow that over at mewe.com/join/arielcelestepho... or ArielCelestePhotography.zenfolio.com!

For a bit of my background, as a child, I was fortunate enough to be able to spend much of my free time exploring and playing in the woods. Little has changed now that I'm older I suppose. I moved to a place with a bigger woods and still enjoy spending my time outside gardening, hiking, exploring, and photographing the natural world around me. As the eldest of seven children who grew up in a homeschooling family, I had the opportunity, not always appreciated at the time, to learn to do quite a bit of work. I've enjoyed a wide range of jobs, everything from greenhouses and flower arranging to wilderness therapy with teens, to milking cows. Mostly, I enjoy doing the kinds of things that I think provide a real service or value to others. Some of my other hobbies include backpacking, hosting people, cooking, preserving food, anything to do with nutrition, reading, journalling, and sitting around a fire and talking to my close friends.

Love that Baby Girl! How blessed to have her take shelter by your house. I'm rooting for her survival! You are strong! You are woman! You will survive!😊
Oh man these Zen films can also be so sad. Poor baby. She feels safe around you, not alone. Two girls in the wild. Nature. Send my love.
Awww how sweet she's taken refuge at your peaceful place. I wish her well too. My hubby found a pair of stray pups while deer hunting one year and my brother wanted to shoot them thinking they would eventually kill off the deer population on our property but my husband said no and brought her home to us. We named her "Lil Orphan Annie" 'Annie' for short. She was the best dog we ever had. I had her house trained in less than 3 weeks.
She was just looking for safety, and she she found it there. Pretty smart girl!
What a great tribute to nature at its best! I believe this great creature that God spared will visit you for years to come. She is a true survivor and a testament to the term “survival of the fittest “!
Baby girl moose has found a safe haven by your home with those great snow pathways! Her chances for survival are better with you watching out for her. Nature is so bittersweet and so is life.
Thank you so much for sharing this video, just loved watching it, beautifully done! Beautiful Burley is such a wonderful dog, you did such a great job with him you Wise Lady.
Thank you for educating people about why we don’t interfere with wildlife… Very difficult not to intervene though.❤️
Sorry to see any orphan, but Baby Girl looks to be doing fine and you are doing such a nice thing by not chasing her away. I would like to see more of you and Burley, maybe you could take us along on some of your excursions. Thanks for the videos, stay well.
If you haven’t already picked a name out, I would like to suggest “Molly”. Sweet, peaceful, and calm name, just like the surrounding she now calls home. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I used to watch your video with my mother, but now well... I watch them alone. I’d like to think my mother is watching over you and Molly in real time. GOD bless and take care. Teresa from California ❤️
Aww very sorry for your loss. It sounds like you have some great memories together!
Baby Girl is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing!
Being that she's orphaned I would call her Annie. But, I also like Baby Girl.
Wishing baby girl the best. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for being so caring & thoughtful re: letting the baby have a good place to hang out & feed herself.
How awesome to have a video from you that showcases just what makes Fy Nyth so special. Thank you for taking the time to produce such a lovely piece.Cisneros it time for another wood cutting chat?🌲😉
Great majestic view of her at 15:08
My son thought the name Lucy would be a good one. We enjoy your videos thank you for sharing them!
You have given the baby girl a sense of peace or she would not stay my love,God has given you a gift to as you give to us,thank you for sharing,she just wants to be safe and still.
Agreed 💙
Agree, I think she’s comforted being near you, she feels safe and not so alone.
Ariel, is there any chance another mama moose would adopt her if their paths should meet? That exact situation occurred this year for an abandoned baby rhesus macaque in Hong Kong. The mother abandoned him which isn’t common (perhaps postpartum depression) and another mother who’d recently given birth happened by him, picked him up and is raising both. She’s a fantastic mom who treats and feeds both equally showing no favoritism. Both baby boys are doing great and it’s been over 8 months so far.
A similar situation occurred a few years ago among snow monkeys in Japan and I’ve seen videos of other animals also adopting, even babies of a different species sometimes. The maternal instinct is strong especially during hormonal surges after giving birth.
Anyway, I’d love to see your baby girl find a new mom. I like the name Annie too since she’s a little orphan. :- )
I've seen in happen in bears, goats, and some other species. But Fish and Game said they have tried it with moose and most of the time the mother tries to kill the baby that is not hers. :(
@@FyNyth Thank you Ariel, and it's great they've tried it, also good to know it's too risky. I don't know much about moose but think they tend to be loners rather than herd animals, maybe baby adoption only works for more social or society-oriented animals. Bears kind of blow that theory though.
Hopefully your Baby Girl will make it on her own.
Thank you. I wish you all the best
I like the name Baby Girl !! I still call my 16 year old daughter Baby Girl sometimes 🙂
Oh this just breaks my heart. I'm thankful she felt your yard was a safe haven at least for a while.
Hi Ariel and Burley, great to see you after so long. I miss your videos on you tube. Sad that the poor moose is alone but hope nature in this case is kind to her. God bless.v
Poor little moose baby, is it me or does it seem to look a little sad and neglected? Her eyes look like they have had a rough day or it could just be me. Wishing baby moose the very best that nature has to offer. And, it's always a pleasure to hear form you Ariel and Burley. Take good care of yourselves and please drop in any time because we all miss you lots. Bye
Well hello stranger been a long time since our paths crossed and Brailey has grown into a fine specimen of dog hood.
Lindie as I think her name should be needs food in the form of hay, grass or a mixed diet of bark and something nutritional, otherwise as you clearly state she will not last the coming months but seems rather timid and has seen your active, so fears nothing. Cheers Ariel and you back on my subscription list.
Thanks for your videos...I am in my 60's and live alone and take care of everything...Like mowing, painting etc...Would not trade this life for anything... But I don't have all the beautiful animals like u or fire place.
But I have my furry friend and our piece of heaven....Thank you 😊 💓
That sounds lovely! I'm so glad you have been able to build a life you enjoy.
Such a special experience!! I have a feeling that if Baby Girl survives she will amble by your place to say howdy every now and then.😌
It's great to see you again ariel, sad to see that baby moose by herself.
Hi , Damon from Australia again. Have missed your posts. That is amazing and I hope she gets through it all unscathed. Nature is what she is. Unfortunately some times. Thanks for sharing.......Damon.
Beautiful music fits the video - but oh so melancholy!
I love your chit chat videos by the fire! If you would like to do more videos I wouldn’t object 😏 haha ... it was good to see you again on here Ariel! Thanks for posting
Poor lonely baby girl. I hope she survives on her own
Shadow! She’s beautiful.
Always sooo good to hear from you and see you! Thank you for sharing this with us, so touching!!
Thank you for sharing these heartfelt moments with “baby girl”. So sad that she is without her mother. But so nice that she was able to rest peacefully at your place!
I'm only half way through the video and Im bawling. I want to feed and water her so bad..ohh my goodness, I can't imagine being in your shoes right now.
Harmony, Happiness and Health
🖖🏼☮❣🌱🌱🌱🦌
You can see the update on her here - fynyth.blogspot.com/2021/03/orphaned-moose-visitor-to-tiny-house.html . She seems to be doing just fine so far!
@@FyNyth thank you for the update and for being you ☮💜☮
Thank you !!!
So happy to see a post from you ! Thank you for sharing this moose video . I so love your photos!
You sure know how to pick the right music Ariel. It made me feel like crying for "Baby Girl" which I think was the best name for this sweet baby moose. I hope she is okay out there in the world but nature is rough so :( at least she enjoyed some peace by your house for a while.
Thanks for sharing! I hope she makes it too. Free tree pruning service anyway. lol Trees are starting to bloom here, and I've been sowing seeds/bulbs (cold weather crops) in my garden. I agree, Annie would be a good name for her. Have a great day!
Enjoy your spring!
SOOO happy that you are making videos again, I have missed them dearly!
Good morning from Nz. My gut instinct would tell me "Don't Intervene." This is nature in the raw. Not being from your country, and not aware of what predators are about, she could possibly provide food for a mountain lion and/or her cubs. It's called the "Cycle of Life." Just a quick search on Google tells me that moose in your country, are not an endangered species. In fact the comment reads "population increasing." So I would leave it, and let nature do it's thing. In other words, don't let yourself become emotionally attached. I'm loving your channel. Take care and stay safe.
Molly the Moose :)
This was already sad enough without the music. You’re killing me 🥺
I have that same wood stove fan, does not work to push air for us although it's a nice visual to keep up with the wood stove. If its slow we better fill it lol.
Your so lucky to see a moose!!! We have been hoping to see one our way. Nothing yet.
Little girl. ❤ little but fierce. Hopefully she does well without her mama. (Or finds her)
So good to see you Ariel. Thank you for sharing Baby Girl with us. Praying the shelter Fy Nyth is providing for her will help her survive.
Thanks for sharing. ❤️
great to see you again . you look very happy .
Enjoy viewing your videos🌟....I Tweeted out the link. I hope ya baby girl decides to stay in the area! 💝🐐
Baby Girl is a perfect name for her. She's staying there for several reasons I think. As you said, the shoveled paths are easy for her. Plenty of food and she sees and hears you and senses your concern for her so she's less lonely. I get what you mean about being neat to observe her but still having heart ache for her.🥺
You can see the update on her here - fynyth.blogspot.com/2021/03/orphaned-moose-visitor-to-tiny-house.html . She seems to be doing just fine so far!
Looks like she's pretty hungry. Moving very slowly and conserving energy.
Moose always move slow. Till they move fast. :)
I would call her Muffin from the children's book "If You Give a Moose a Muffin" by Lauren Numeroff. BTW- Love the music in the background.
What a cool video. Thank You for sharing.
This reminds me of the documentary My Octopus Teacher that also portrays the delicate relationship between human and a wild animal. Wishing all the luck to your baby girl! Thanks for sharing.
I absolutely LOVED that movie.....!
I never heard of it. I might have to look it up. Thanks!
I like the name Millie Moose!
🙏namaste
💖💖💖
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Ariel, don't get to see that everyday! LOL DJK wis.
Miss Twiggy would be a cute name.
Ariel & Burley, how nice to see you both. THANK YOU Ariel for sharing this with us. It is a bitter sweet taste of wild life. I'm hoping that Baby Girl (which is the perfect name) will end up with the sweet taste. She is so pretty and she seems to feel safe with you moving around. Ariel, could she possibly make you land her home? If so, are you allowed to touch her? She looks at you like she would like to come up to you. Also, how does such a large creature live on twigs and branches? You are marvelous! To be able to love and enjoy such a beautiful creature yet have the strength to do the right thing by not stressing her out any more than she is already. I think she loves it there with You and Burley. I hope that you will share any updates about Baby Girl if possible. As always, Love from St Louis, MO
Aww thanks! Moose tend to attack and sometimes kill people and certainly kill dogs. So in general they do not make good pets and I would never try to get that close to one. You can see the update on her here - fynyth.blogspot.com/2021/03/orphaned-moose-visitor-to-tiny-house.html . She seems to be doing just fine so far!
My heart is breaking that She is staying in the same place day after day, and that she's all alone! Isn't there some kind of animal sanctuary that She can go to? 💗
As I said, Fish and Game were called the first day she showed up here orphaned just in case they wanted to do any thing. But their policy is to let nature take it's course, whatever that is.
She definitely feels quite at home there and doesn't seem afraid of you, at all! So sad that she has no Mama! 😥💔
I miss your videos...... COME BACK.....
I like Orphan Annie for her name. I also like your cooking videos and hope you do some for us soon!
Thanks for sharing this awesome video, Ariel. It's amazing how elusive moose are given their size so it's awesome you were able to capture so much of her. I saw my first moose last March here on our property in Vermont and it was such a cool experience. Hopefully she can hang in there until the spring thaw. She might even stick around long enough for you to keep seeing her so we can watch her progress. Cheers!
Aww you are welcome! You can see the update on her here - fynyth.blogspot.com/2021/03/orphaned-moose-visitor-to-tiny-house.html . She seems to be doing just fine so far!
Your dog is so smart and loyal
I want that poor baby to live 😢 Being alone must've been hard for her, i think she felt comfort near Ariel and Burley 😢
You can see the update on her here - fynyth.blogspot.com/2021/03/orphaned-moose-visitor-to-tiny-house.html . She seems to be doing just fine so far!
LOVE THIS 💕 I hope she makes it. Can't wait to get back to Wyoming 🙏📿
That snow sure is deep! You must of had to shovel out a long time! It is March here in Pa., only 10 degrees, COLD!
That is cold for there!
15:08 this moose is very special and must be protected.
🌼💜
Love it !
Ma daiiiii
Ma che bella visita❤❤❤
So glad to see you!
I would call her Matilda. No reason, I just like the name. I think she will grow I to it!
She is beautiful thank you for sharing this with us, I hope she does make it.
Baby girl seems to suit her
Such a nice video, thank you
❤️
Thank you so much for sharing Ariel! I really enjoyed watching this segment. I wish her all the best and sincerely hope she survives and thrives..... maybe somewhere else besides your lawn, but for now, she is at least safe. God Bless you!
Very cool! I'm ecited to see what happens.

Thanks for sharing Ariel, peace be with you. Skip
I would call her Annie for "Orphan Annie"!❤ You captured some great footage of her and the lovely scenery at your house. It's sad knowing she's all along to fend for herself. She's really special. She reminds me of the old song "Wayfaring Stranger" as she wanders through the woods. Speaking of song, I loved the music you played throughout the video. I would love to know the name as I just got a piano and am looking for music to play! Would love an update on Baby Girl too if she stays a while longer. Bless her heart. She feels safe at your home🥰 It's good to see your videos again!👋
Thanks! It's called "Cryptic Sorrow - Atlantean Twilight" by Kevin Macleod from YT's free audio library.
@@FyNyth Thanks so much! I'll look for it tomorrow!👍
I think a good name would be Belle...she's beautiful!! Thanks for sharing!
🐾🐾⛄❤🇺🇸🍀🍀🍀
Awww, this was sorta bittersweet Ariel. I loved seeing the little moose, but knowing she is orphaned/abandoned is heart wrenching. Her little face just has that forlorn look to me. Like where's my mama, what do I do next, where do I go, etc. I have to admit shedding some tears. I know this is just something unfortunate that happens with wildlife, but it's still kind of hard accepting it. I'm the type when I see cows or horses in a field when snowing, I want to take them to a warm barn with a big hay bed to lay on and cover them in warm blankets....lol. Thank you for sharing your video with us, and it was wonderful to see you and Mr. Burley again, and sitting by your little fireplace to boot........so cozy. Love and hugs from ol' lady Karen in Iowa.
My heart is sad for her, hope every thing turns out ok. Ariel I miss your videos especially the cooking videos.
That's a heap big Mountain Lion you captured on your trail camera awhile back.
I would think about getting a stainless steel mesh collar for yourself and your doggie. A Cougar likes to attack
from the rear, and they go for the neck, if that happens you will be dead in about 3 seconds.
I can't "Thank You" enough for sharing... And explaining the local policies of Fish and Game... Like it or not, it does make sense... But so does praying and sending good thoughts to her for her future. I also think that intuitively she is very smart, she came to your and Burley's "safe haven" to rest, eat and get her bearings. So, I am happy to have just a small glimpse at nature at it's best... With both you and Burley respectfully keeping your distance, allowing her to feel safe and then at her own pace... Move on to her future...
Aww you are welcome. You can see the update on her here - fynyth.blogspot.com/2021/03/orphaned-moose-visitor-to-tiny-house.html . She seems to be doing just fine so far!
She's OK. I thought it was interesting that she chose your house area to hang out. Great content. Thanks for sharing.
So good to see you and Burley today. I love all the snow you got this year. I wish we had received much more of the white stuff. Thank you for the lovely visit in the great outdoors complete with a wee moose. Stay safe and healthy and happy!
Wishing the sweet girl a good life. Fingers crossed.
Hooray Ariel posting again burley big
thanks for the vid.
I think Molly would fit her better. “The unsinkable Molly Brown” 😊
At least she is getting something to eat and snow to drink. She might be Okay. Thanks for sharing. Have a super wonderful day.
I love the way how thoughtful you treat animals, nature and wildlife.
Thank you so much for sharing this. She will hopefully make it just fine and will grow up beautiful & healthy. It's so nice to know there are kind people like you in this world. God bless.
Great video footage.
Aw. What a gift she gave you! How special. Thanks for sharing. 😉👍🇨🇦🌲🔥
Good to see you Ariel and Burley. Baby Girl is a good name. I’m so glad she’s eating and drinking. I think she’ll be ok, you may have a resident moose friend for life. I bet she likes your paths because it’s warmer for her and they are high like her mama. Thanks for sharing her with us. Wildlife is amazing to watch though cruel sometimes. That music is to gloomy for Baby Girl. Lol
Take care
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
