Sitka Alaska. I am trying out the new tripod I bought. Testing it with the camera zoom lens. Birds !
I purchased a new tripod. It was on sale. The tripod is very well build. But too heavy to pack far. It will work great on short walks, or for sitting in a hide. I can strap it onto my Addmotor Grandtan E-Trike. It seemed to work well for birds, and other critters. It will also help for close-ups. My days of getting down low to the ground, are pretty much over. Spotted some Barrows Golden Eye, Bufflehead, Scaup, and Great Blue Herons.

    Solitude can be nice too, it's a far sight better than the bothersome noises of the weekend warriors and the sounds of tree cutting and smell of neighbors burning garbage and such. Sorry about the rant ... I enjoy the peaceful moments, but certainly don't mind when the critters are out and about either. The feel of winter coming brings about the change of seasons, but the change brings new beauty. You live in a beautiful place, I'm glad you are able to get out and enjoy what mother earth brings. Thank you for the video, I enjoy the pans and ability to focus on the peaks nearby. Enjoy!

      Thank you. Yes, it's a different world at our feet. Due to increasing mobility issues, I have been thinking about what I am still able to do. One idea is Macro photography and video. If I can't hike a trail or climb a mountain anymore, I'll look down around my feet.

    Thank you for sharing your wisdom of the surroundings there. Getting the etrike looks to be a wonderful idea. Your adventures inspired me to do the same, I got an Addmotor also. (Mine is the 'CityTri E-310'). These sure are nicely engineered and manufactured machines. The ability to go places that I, otherwise, would not be able to go, has really improved my quality of life. We live along the Columbia River in Washington state, so some of the flora and fauna looks quite familiar, just not in the abundance that you have there.

      I would rather had a E-Bike. But after trying to ride a bike again was impossible for me. Also the Trikes are not made for people over 5'10". Thanks for watching my videos. If health permits, I'll create them as long as I can.

    Well, I never want to get too close to a Devil Club plant. I never knew that there was such a plant. So here's a video idea, unless you have already done this: Maybe doing a video on the different types of pine trees in the Sitka area. I saw a few spruce trees but I don't think that they were Blue Spruce pine trees. I heard that there is a Sitka Spruce but I don't know if that is what I was seeing.

    Sorry for your pain but just know that it was a joy watching you on your fishing outing. You might need to change to bait fishing. That way you could bring a chair and fish sitting down. But after seeing so many people fish in Alaska with fly fishing rods, you might get laughed at seating and using a bait rod. Well once again, I really enjoyed this video.

    What a beautiful place you live in, i was born in the city and spent most of my teenage days playing video games and not enjoying nature and outside. I'm 24 now and discovered the wonderful world of fishing and these places just make me want to drop everything, and go live in a tiny cabin in the woods with a small trout stream next to it just like you! Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. You make people like me really thankful for what mother nature gave us. I can only hope to stand where you are one day.

    Some people took issue with me when I said I did not like NPR News. First I do not watch Fox News. I had not listened to NPR news for over 20 years. I was disappointed by what I heard, the poor format, and lack of real news. I recommend BBC, Associated Press, and GBNews. I do not like "talking heads" or being told how to think. Just give me the facts. 😀
