Relax and Chill with Beautiful Birds: Sparrows and Warblers
I love my blu 😮❤❤.. they are on the 3rd nest now...ready to fledge
That’s so cool! Do you have a nest box in your yard or do they use a natural tree cavity?
Japan 🇯🇵 and China 🇨🇳 are popular with the Red-crowned Crane, also known as the Manchurian crane.
Wow! I just looked them up Very cool!👍
Liked this video! The cranes looked like they're wearing Kangols!! 😂 Great video, the two cranes "talking" to each other remind me of a certain couple!! 😅😅
🤣🤣🤣 I can’t unsee the Kangols now!😂
I've seen only 2 pair this season.
Glad you had an opportunity to enjoy them! Perhaps more will come around😊
That's it! We have found Bigfoot! Huh? You say Bigfoot is a mammal? Oh, well. That changes everything. But it does have Big Feet!
Lol! That’s good😂
He says, "I eat my grub worms without sauce, and the ants with salt & pepper." He is welcome to all of the bugs. I don't have a greedy bone in my body.
😂
I am amazed at how birds like this can balance on one leg.
Yes!
Those are some nice close up shots. Of course it helps when you can get really close to begin with!
Thanks!☺️
I am glad that I found your channel. I really like critters. My wife says that I am her critter. My backyard squirrels are like family. One has four white paws. We call that one Sox.
Aww thanks😊 I’m glad too! Lol “critter” is definitely a term of endearment. Yes, my backyard squirrels are like family too! I love that name, Sox. How cute!🤗
I just discovered your channel tonight, so I've subscribed. I have 6 squirrels that come to my back garden, I feed them every day, I also feed multiple small and medium sized birds, two crows and one seagull, so I'm not short of visitors to my garden, I feed my squirrrels various nuts including Pecans, AImonds, Brazil nuts, Monkey nuts, Walnut Halves, Cashews and peanuts, two of the squirrels will eat from my hand, the rest are still a bit skittish, but are getitng closer. One of the squirrels has dicovered that if the back door is closed and he taps on it, I'll open it if I'm in the kitchen, I'm just waiting for the other 5 to discover that fun fact and my life will never be the same again lol, they are wonderful creatures, they dart around the lawn like nothing on earth and the ones that take the nuts from my hand are very gentle when they place their paws on my hand while taking the nuts, I don't mind the squirrels helping themselves to the seed that I put out for the birds as I always have plenty, I love your channel, keep up the great work. Ray
Nothing I could say could convey how happy your comment just made me! I appreciate it so much🥰 Thank you for sharing your experiences. Reading about them literally put a smile on my face☺️
Why do we always have to put up with a smarty pants little announcer ?
Lol what do you mean?
Fascinating information and beautiful filming ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much!
Excellent visual description of Bluebirds in Florida and how to identify and enjoy these beautiful creatures of God!
Hi there! Check the description for some things I now use to prevent my squirrels from taking all of the food away from my backyard birds😂 They don’t mean any harm, but I have to look out for both the squirrels and birds.🩷
Hey there! Check the description for bluebird nest box and other birdwatching recommendations💙
The circus reference is quite appropriate. They are natural acrobats. As well as not being shy. The backyard squirrels have discovered that jumping on the screen door and shaking it brings out the food! They like their hooman food provider. I'm a sucker for critters.
Lol I love that story! It’s like they train us to give them what they want! I totally get it; that cuteness wears us down easily☺️
TIL that bluebirds and bluejays are not the same thing lol
😂
Finally saw one at the cabin. Ran into my window, then started pecking on the posts on the porch.😂
Wow! You got a really up close view then! Aren’t they cool looking?
Yes, they are!! This one just started coming around.
I dont really like squirrels at all, they are invasive, cause lots of damage and personally I dont find them cute at all, but this video at least let me understand them better
Hey there! I totally understand your point of view. I appreciate you taking the time to watch my video and learn a bit about them.👍
I have an opposite question. I can’t keep the birds away from the squirrels food. LOL We have a large amount of starlings here and they’re pigs. One can gobble up in seconds what it takes a squirrel 5 minutes to eat. At least the squirrels put up a fight when the birds try to scare them away. LOL
Lol! I can totally imagine starlings doing that 😂 I guess they’re keeping the squirrels on their toes!
I put out seeds for birds (finches, mourning doves, cardinals) and squirrels come by to eat. I "bribe" them with nuts to leave the bird seed alone. They enjoy the nuts and come back for more. I love the squirrels too - there's plenty for everybody!
Absolutely! I feel the same way😀
It really does sound like someone laughing 😂
Yes!😂
Great video. Thank you for introducing me to a new bird, well new to me. We don't have them here in the Pacific Northwest. I will have to keep an eye out from them when I an in California.
Aww thank you so much! Yes, definitely look for them in California. They are stunning in person and so fun to hear!
My squirrel loves vanilla tootsie rolls
Oh no! I hope he doesn’t eat them too often!😳😄
@@NaturallyCourtneyChannel Why is that? Does it hurt them? When I ran out of peanuts the squirrel ran up to me asking for food and tootsie rolls was all I had so I gave him a few and he loved it. Since then ive been giving him one every other day
Well, I’m no expert on exactly what can happen if they eat tootsie rolls, but I do know that the ingredients are not the best for them. Also, chocolate can be toxic to them, so thankfully you gave him vanilla 👍 That is very sweet that you like to give your squirrel treats though!☺️
@@NaturallyCourtneyChannel After patiently waiting 15 minutes at a time for a whole day the squirrels now eat out of my hand! My dream came true LoL...When im outside they run in circles around me to try to play so I act like im chasing them, almost like old Frankenstein movie chase HaHaHa but we have fun. I thought about letting them inside the house because they wanna come inside but I decided against that because I dont want them to lose their survival skills in case something happens to me.
Aww I love that! I have a couple of them that will eat out of my hand and it’s awesome! I am so attached to them🥰
I do my best to feed the birds, not the squirrels. I live in a green enclave that is part of a city. Rats are a real problem in the whole metroplex- a problem I don't want to have! I keep birdseed off the ground by using catch-basins under my feeders. My feeders are the tube-type. They have springboard style perches that are meant to close if a squirrel tries to climb onto them. That helps, but squirrels still get some seeds. One must give squirrels credit: they're always going to prevail, to some extent!
That is an interesting set up. Yes, you’re right…the squirrel’s superpower is definitely tenacity! 😂
He’s a tough guy stood up to you…lol
Lol! Do you mean the one screeching? No, that wasn’t for me; there was a cat around. But you’re right, he is tough! 💪 😂
Thank you very much, very nice vid and informative. But I find the music quite annoying, especially when you want us to listen to the squirrel, with loud background music: counterproductive!
Noted. The music will remain as it creates the vibe, but I totally understand if it’s not your cup of tea. Can’t please everyone. I’ll look into lowering the music volume when I want you to hear animals or something in the future 👍
Well done! I never would have noticed that the sparrow was in my yard, let alone what kind he of sparrow he was, and that he wasn't supposed to be here. 👍👍
Thank you so much! Lol! Yes, I’m definitely a bird nerd 🤓😂
RollerFeeder settled my problems besides making me laugh.
I just looked it up. What a smart design!
These birds are absolutely beautiful we have 4 males and 3 females that come vist everyday and we love them ❤️
I love that😊
Years ago I lived in the woods in the mountains in a very rural area. We had lots of tree squirrels there and lots of trees with various nuts. One morning in winter, I went to my closet to get my boots which I always wore to go out and feed the horses. I started to put on a boot and noticed something didn't feel right in my boot. I turned it upside down and out fell 3 little acorns. Somehow, a squirrel had managed to come up through our floor and into my closet to hide his acorns. I was overwhelmed by Mr. Squirrel's cuteness! These days I still live in the woods and feed the squirrels sunflower seeds and other treats, they seem to really appreciate it.
What a cute story! I love that😊
They're so cute. We had a mama and 3 young ones raiding our plum tree a few years back!
Aww that’s adorable ☺️
Lil Beauties ❤, and very intelligent, thank you for this
Yes, they are! You’re so welcome. Thank you for the lovely comment😊
Yes they are very intelligent, I've noticed that. Have watched the squirrels for 20 yrs. I also once had a rescue squirrel who was 10 days old when I got him. That was a fun adventure. Squirrels are nice and they don't bother the birds I feed either. They're polite.
Beautiful footage!
Thank you!
Nuts are needed most in winter, fresh fruits etc. in summer. Too many nuts can cause them problems. I love to feed the wild ones, too. 😁
Yes👍 That’s great!
Loved the scene with the two mockingbirds, That hawk looked liked he was more annoyed than scared! LOL great closeups. I loved the sound track. 👍👍😎
Thank you! 😂 Yes, the mockingbirds fussing and annoying the hawk is my favorite!
@@NaturallyCourtneyChannelyes those mockingbirds are feisty! I’ve seen them chasing huge crows! They don’t play and will attack a human if you come near their nest.
You are absolutely right lol! I love mockingbirds though! They can be feisty, but also very sweet. The ones that come to our backyard will come very close to my husband and I while they eat and splash in the birdbath🥹 I wouldn’t dare test them by getting anywhere near their nest though 😂
Lol the poor lizard trying to defend himself. Great video!!
Lol! Thanks so much😊
Not sure if you got my comment or not....but I saw this hawk on front walk...opened the door...and my friend got a squirrel 😮
Oh wow😦 I’m always afraid that I’m going to see this hawk snatch up one of my squirrels🫣
Great job and info
Thank you!
They are smart creatures ❤❤👍👍
Absolutely👍
I put out enough for all - kudos to those that do
That’s great!😀
I live across from a very large campground they have 15 peacocks and for some reason they spend most of their time at my house the females even bringing the young to meet me....they even knock on the door and rest on my deck they are so beautiful
Wow! That’s so cool!🤗
The dark side of gray squirrels iis that they are cannibalistic. I had one run across my yard with a nearly full grown squirrel in its mouth.
🫣 I’m so glad I have never seen that.
Thank you ❤❤❤👍👍👍
You’re welcome! Thank you for the kind comment☺️
Great, but too short. My cat would like to see it all again and again without the narration
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback, however my purpose for this channel is to help people discover the beauty of nature while educating them on it. I am also a teacher by profession, so the narration aspect is important to me.
Very cute birds! Lovely video!
Aww thank you! Yes, they are adorable🤗
