    Hello Everyone! I want to say a massive thank you for the recent love and support. I was not expecting this from my RUclips channel and I am very grateful you're here to follow my wildlife adventures! If everything goes to plan, I will be back in Sweden in a couple of months to find the squirrels again! 🐿💙

      Amazing video again, Dani. I really think you should be presenting on TV. Very good commentary and videography.
      I know a fair amount about the natural world, but still always learn something from your productions.

    What to dislike about this video? Nothing! But 3 thumbs down, people must be insane, squirrels could be pest some times, they could raid birds nest, but that are their life, they are not evil, they are just doing what they are supposed to do. Lovely photos and videos, a very calm and soothing voice. The Swedish for rest could se a little barren, but most life goes down in pace when it gets cold, I think if You look down into the ground, maybe things happens there, but bugs and worms are not so cute as birds and squirrels. Mice and other rodents, may start liveagainwhen the snow has settled, the are starting to create a network of snow tunnels. And if You are lucky, You could cat a glimpse of a Red Fox hunting. Thanks!

    @xpqr12345 3 года назад +1

    Great video, I like the fact that you visit the same place repeatedly over time.
    If you enjoy northern Sweden, I think you should visit a few other places. Off the top of my mind are eg
    - Rapaselet/Skierfe/Sarek. Sarek is the oldest national park in Sweden, Skierfe is a cliff on it's outskirts and Rapaselet is the delta of a small river running into a lake. Check out satellite photos of the place, and you should be able to guess when to go, what to shoot and so on. There might also be large bears to photograph, if you are lucky enough to see them without them seeing you. You can get to Kvikkjokk by bus/car, but from there on, it's all hiking and carrying your gear in a rucksack. If you want to visit Sarek you must have a tent and all other camping gear, as there is no infrastructure in the park. Rapaselet is rumoured to be the big-wildlife densest place in Sweden.
    - Holmön. The name means "the islet island", and it's usually applied to the entire archipelago of small islands between Sweden and Finland. The largest island in the archipelago (the one whose name really is Holmön!) is inhabited by some 200 people. Most of the archipelago is a nature reserve. There are other places in the archipelago worth visiting, but they require access to a boat: Holmögadd (the southernmost island in the group) and Stora Fjäderägg. If you want to visit any of these places in summer, add a comment here, I might be able to arrange transport by boat as I live close by.
    - further south is Skuleskogens nationalpark. Another national park, most known for Slåttdalsskrevan. This is a pretty big crack in the bedrock, some 10 meters wide. There are huts spread around the park that you are allowed to stay in overnight, on a first-come-first-served basis. You are allowed to raise a tent in the immediate vicinity of these huts, but nowhere else. To get there you can probably take a bus from Örnsköldsvik, which is just north of the park.
