Newest video in the series is out now! ruclips.net/video/f4C7hxACOzM/видео.html
I think the woodcock really wants you to give him all the attention 😆
Just wanted to give you a heads-up, if you're not already aware. I reported some scammer using your name trying to get folks to message them on Telegram saying they won something. I find them all over in comments under so many videos. I hope folks know better not to answer them. I can't stand people who prey on folks who might not know better.
That said, it's funny how a screech owl sounds more like a loon to me 😂 It took me a long time and asking the right question to the right person before I learned what was making that weird noise I wasn't familiar with only having been a backyard bird nerd until i moved to where i am now. Now I live right near the woods and large open fields and I hear them fairly often.
I'm enjoying your videos and I really have to put a bird bath out for the birds who come to my feeders. Maybe one with a fountain for the added attraction of the noise. I so enjoy seeing the birds.
Well done, and very thoughtful to think of the animals who benefit from the larger pond and more native plant life. I think my favorite bird so far who I see is a male red bellied woodpecker who is very loud and showy, he's such a ham and very entertaining to watch from my windows while having my morning coffee. 😄
Great Auk are extirpated, Extinct.that was a joke right?
That woodcock was such a treat. It's going to be really fun watching this pond as it progresses through the season and the years.
Thanks so much!
If only we had known how much more we get to watch!
I'm so in love with your philosophies and how you made this all yourself, so much heart and effort. I love the little garden and the hummingbird feeder being so close, and the natural habitat restored for the birds is so thoughtful. You're already getting such amazing footage!
I’ve been waiting for this! Phenomenal video Stefano, can’t wait to see more. You have done an amazing job on your little pond and habitat.
Thanks for waiting 🙂so happy you enjoyed it
Awesome array of birds. 👍👍
I really adore how much love and knowledge and appreciation you show for nature.
Thank you so much!!
you took the words out of my mouth
Before RUclips, where on earth did you document your AMAZING activities!! How wonderful! I didn’t have a childhood that included learning about wildlife. I’m old now, and I can’t tell you how much I have enjoyed watching your wildlife pond develop and learning about birds. It would never have happened without your RUclips videos! I was literally holding my breath when you were waiting so patiently for this last bird (the Woodcock) to appear. I just knew it would, and what a treat to finally see it and hear it! I’ll be back!
Stefano: Amazing!
Woodcock: Peeeeep!
18:06 Awwie the "peeek" is so anticlimatically funny 😂 the tension building up and broken by such a cute sound.
This is allowing me to freely geek-out in both photography and biology -and not to mention have serious envy of your property as I live in a city.
If you persevere and never give up your rewards are justified with pleasure and fullfilments of wonders. from UK 🇬🇧👍👍
Your channel within a span of two episodes has almost immediately become the most exciting channel in my opinion. Definitely subscribed to follow along. Absolutely wonderful.
So glad you're enjoying it! Thank you!
As my child has grown up, I’ve lost my fascination, love and connection to nature. I’m inspired by your videos to prepare my garden for spring. Much admiration from Kent, England. 👍
Brother , I am sure you are going to
" live " as Blissfully and Happily as Possible , ☺️ for the great services that you are doing to your Feathered Friends ....... In this life and the one in Heaven . God bless you .☺️
Thank you for these awesome videos of yours .
Thank you Stefano for doing what you can to create wildlife habitat. The native plants are the foundation of your ecosystem.
Thank you for the lists and and detailed maps and explanations. This makes me (a viewer from New Jersey) feel like I am right there with you.
The amount of work you are putting into this physically and technically is admirable and motivating.
I love the funny little noise the Woodcock made when u finally got him on film. Worth all the effort.
I love how you narrate some of these clips - the intimidatingly macho hummingbird was particularly delightful
It is very interesting and beautiful to see your pond evolve, becoming a hotspot for all sorts of creatures! Greetings from India :)
Thanks so much!
so true
I agree with you!!!
From Québec, Canada
Amazing video sir! Type of videos NatGeo, Discovery etc make with a team of so many people, you are doing it alone with your own resources. Hats off to your passion and skills.
Wow that means a lot, thank you!
Just two videos in and this is already one of my favourite channels, ever. I'm not exaggerating.
So interesting to see all the wildlife you have in the USA
Good luck from the UK
Those shots of the tree swallow catching feathers in the air are beautiful.
So glad you enjoyed that sequence!
The woodpecker sounds like a squiky toy
Please continue showing this pond project, it's really amazing
Gosh, I don’t know where to start. I loved everything about this video! That Woodcock footage was so, so cool. Congratulations on that! All your bird footage is gorgeous. And your down to earth, informative, and funny narrative makes all of your videos fun to watch. And, of course, now I’m wanting a larger pond setup with a spiffy photo blind :-D. Congratulations on your success with all of this. Can’t wait to see what you do next.
Thank you so much for the kind words! Really happy to hear you enjoyed it all
This is WONDERFUL - thank you so much for posting. I built my own (very small) wildlife pond this Summer. I live in Hampshire UK and hear owls nearly every night from my bedroom. SUBSCRIBED!
So are we!! My 8yr old daughter and I are so excited for your videos!! Thank you.. after watching this one she says... maybe we should build a pond! We love your inspiration and your hard work for these videos. Thank you!
That’s awesome! So glad you’re both enjoying the videos!
I am completely relaxed after watching this. I loved the shots of the frogs most as well as the funny calls from the woodcock
I love birds so much. The humming birds are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Wow.... you are too much!!! The video quality... giving us the experience by enjoying nature wildlife... your way to describe everything... your voice tone.... EVERYTHING... is just perfect. Thank you... thank you so much... for this beautiful and perfect work you do. Wow... there are no words to describe the morning you gave me by just watching your videos.... omg... thank you... 😭😍
Loved the video! The way the woodcock's call aligned with the music was pretty funny. You've done something special with this beautiful little patch of land.
2:25 love the editing here, good music score to match the flying birds
You've created a true life cinematic nature series! It's such a relaxing watch, full of edutainment. 💚
What a prize to catch footage of that regal woodcock! I envy you with your pond---so nicely done, and thanks for sharing.
Great to see this setup working and giving the wildlife a place to live.
These kinds of people are the ones who should be the true influencers...
the ecosystem is really well maintained and the birds are tame even though they live in the wild.
greetings from Indonesia
I want a ten hour video of the woodcock going "meeep"
So lovely :D
I live in Washington and I saw my first eastern bluebird it's the first time ever they've migrated to Washington. I also enjoyed seeing this video it was awesome, it was amazing to see all the birds that I can't see in the west.
Beautiful Crafted Film. Wonderfully Illustrated, Inspirational And Informative. Many Thanks For Sharing.
A brilliant start and as for the woodcock ,I was so happy to share in your much deserved clips .Your pond is a paradise Greetings from Berlin ..
You should build a natural water filter system run it using solar power. Awesome Job with the Pond.
Wonderful video! Such devotion to nature and birds. Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!
I was so excited to finally watch this video! And a woodcock!!! Only the cutest bird ever. What a bonus! Beautiful work, love your passion for all wildlife. Can’t wait to see who else shows up to visit at your pond.
Thanks so much! Really happy to hear you enjoyed the video
What a charming bird the American Woodcock is! Thank you for sharing your process with us!
So much love in what you do. 💚
I'm so glad I found your channel! Youre videos are prime background material! I can tune in at any time and feel so calm and I learn something new! Keep it up dude.
Wonderful video. Have been watching your progress with anticipation. Amazing transformation of the pond area. I'm from Australia and a group of us go out every Thursday capturing images of our beautiful birds. Thanks for sharing. Cheers
Thanks a lot! And I hope your group has success on your next outing!
Great video Stefano. Awesome to see the swallow catching the feathers... so funny to see them struggling with bringing the featther inside the box. I have seen similar behaviour with house wren, trying to bring in little stick into the box, too long to come horizontally, it can take them a while to figure how to turn them sideways. Great coverage of the hummingbird display/behavious so cute! So cool you got the woodcok! I truly think you should have your tv show... you are so good and interesting with such a good sense of humour, I am sure a lot of people would watch! Looking forward to seeing your next video!
Wow! Thanks for your patience. We all benefited from it. Excited to see more from your pond.
Thanks so much!
Just discovered this channel several weeks ago. Think it's my fav on all of youtube.
That woodcock is one funky lil bird~ Love the meep they do
Just found you on RUclips, so glad I did. I love your videos. I'm as excited as you are when that special bird comes along. I cheered when the Woodcock appeared. Will be coming along with you on your adventures, can't wait.
Hope your Christmas was great. Hello to your wife and the kitty.
That's awesome that you were able to film the Woodcock, and even better that you were able to capture it calling!
Yeah pretty happy it was that relaxed with me around
Can't believe I forgot about this channel,Good to come back and see this,Good to see the pond doing good.
Thanks for watching buddy!
As a newcomer to this channel, I can only say this is absolutely inspirational. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Your videos are so beautiful, amazing, and inspirational. Thank you for sharing your wonderful work. ✨️🌟✨️
So happy you enjoy the videos! Thank you for watching and joining along 🙂❤
Outstanding work Stefano. I was smiling at the end even with the grainy footage. Cant wait to see more at your pond.
Thank you!
I HEARD IT. I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR DOING THIS FOR US.
"Woodcock Intermission"!! HA HA! Great to see how the pond is coming and how much you appreciate every plant and creature.
Haha, thanks so much!!
Your photography is beautiful. Those of us watching are benefitting from the bigger pond. It is amazing. I love looking at the details in the species of birds thanks to your great pics. And I have learned so much. All that about the ants and the aphids was interesting. I watch u instead of news and my outlook has improved. Lol.
This is really a BEAUTIFUL work, congrats to you in this production. Wishing you all the luck in your next projects!
Thank you so much!
Found your channel (!) and appreciate you creating a habitat for wildlife and sharing photos of visitors to the pond.
If you're looking for plant suggestions, Winterberry or Ilex Verticillata is a wildlife friendly plant that produces beautiful red berries that are held during the winter; I love seeing this shrub laden with snow and berries. The shrub is dioecious, meaning that each plant is either male or female. The female is the only one that produces berries and a male plant must be nearby for pollination (one male plant for every 5-10 female plants); I have 'Winter Red' and 'Southern Gentleman' varieties. Attracts pollinators to the little white flowers in spring, and the berries are eaten by birds in late winter once they have been frozen; Cardinals love them.
That was incredible! Besides the Woodcock video, the highlight for me was watching the Tree Swallows catching the feathers and trying to get them into the nest box. Can't wait for the next episode. Oh, glad you put up predator guards!
So glad you enjoyed it, thank you!!
I used to give my violet green swallows turkey feathers, long ones and I noticed that they had to bring the feather into the box quill tip first. If they had it wrong they would let it go midair and try to grab it by the proper end. Sometimes losing it to another swallow. 😊
Big adventure in the Pond. Love it. Each getting their own story.
The pond looks great! +++ WOODCOCK!!!!! WooHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Thanks Stefano!
Thanks so much!! And thanks for watching 🙂
Just discovered your channel. Surprised that your videos do not already have millions of views, they are really great! Congrats from Italy!
I like the new pond very much, and I love your enthusiasm. I love all those birdies, but one of my very favorites is the European Starling. I just LOVE that birdie since I have had two of them in a very large aviary and would even fly free in the house. Great video!
Ah! So sweet! I love your little pond and your photography of the wildlife that come to it! Thanks!
Thanks!
Your commentary in the last minutes of the video while waiting on the little fella was great!! I just need you to say it with a British accent!! 🤣🤣😂😂😂
I get so much joy out of watching your videos. Thank you so much!
I just love, love your videos! The shots of the birds are amazing. I especially love the swallows, they are so elegant. The "meep" of the woodcock was hilarious! Can't wait for more videos of your new homestead. Does this pond still exist though? I live in the middle of Berlin, so city life galore. But amazingly, we have pretty much wildlife, and great diversity. Sometimes a hooded crow visits me on the balcony for the occasional snack from my hand, and the sparrows love my feeder. The blackbird and the woodpigeon pair return every year to nest in our small backyard. And lately a kestrel is sleeping under the roof every night! But this is nothing compared to the abundance of bird species you have there. Btw, I also love starlings :) they are absolute rowdies, but they are so smart, and their feathers twinkle like diamonds.
Nature is so lovely and so extremely varied. I hope we take care of her.
Agreed!
So so beautiful 😭👏🏽🫶🏽 dreamed life. The lynx!!!! Omg!! Congratulations👏🏽 this is amazing! And gives me a lot of good ideas!! This is the real GOALS meaning.
Congratulations again Stefano for both your wonderful pond and the Woodcock!
Thank you!
Great video, with the pond setup and the videography! Loved it ❤
Thank you for your Dedication towards Nature, I love your Pond
That last bird is SO COOL! Love your channel!
Hello from France ! Thank you so much for this incredible video ! It's so interesting. So excited to see the rest of the adventure :)
Glad you enjoyed it, merci!
Oh that's what they're called. I saw an Instagram video of an american woodcock walking that cool way across a road. Lovely bird. Great catch. You're so lucky.
Looking forward more home-made pond activity!
Little piece (pond) of heaven 💚👍
😁😁
What a great video!! I've been excited to see what birds would visit after you got it all set up! Thank you for sharing this.
Wow! I was browsing RUclips and stumbled onto your video. Talk about scoring! That Woodcock video was epic! I’ve never seen one, ever. I was excited for you. I’m a West Coast Birder. Thank you so much for sharing this with others. I’m going to have to check out your site.
I think come August you are going to be able to get some great shots of a lot of species at the pond, can't wait to see what you get.
Thanks so much! That’s what I’m hoping for, fingers crossed!
Amazing work! The hummingbird bit was adorable
THANK YOU, for ALL your beautiful videos!
Stefano, your videos are truly amazing. The amount of work and dedication that you put into them is so apparent. I have so many positive things to say. I had left a comment on a previous video that your storytelling was really improving, and I want to say it again. I am SO impressed with the narrative and the education you are providing us, your viewers. Thank you for the incredible content!
Thanks so much for the kind words! So happy to hear!
Unreal! What a wonderdul video. Can’t wait for more… 🤩
Thanks so much!
These video's are AWESOME... Great nature photography, super interesting how-to's... Glad I discovered your channel! Plz keep doing this!
I love watching your videos. You have such a passion for wildlife and your enthusiasm comes through the screen. I don't know much about wildlife. I can identify maybe a dozen birds but I do love them. Thanks for these wonderful videos.
You are so knowledgeable and talented. I was so excited for you with your woodcock experience.
What a bird nerd!💞Really enjoy these videos!
Fantastic! I love birds and jumping spiders. Beautiful video.
this series of 3 videos was great, never thought this would interest me but it sure did, you have me hooked
Your video inspired me more to get into birding
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching.
By far the best share on RUclips. Everything I was thinking is on this video. Big thumbs up.👍
This may be the best channel that ever existed
Wonderful video. Shots of tree swallows catching feathers was inimitable.
Thank you!
Love your passion for the birds 🦅
Can't wait to see more of your videos on the wildlife around the new pond. Great video by the way.
Thank you!
Excellent video Stefano. Your blind and habitat set-up is epic.
Thanks so much, Rob!
