@@Idrinklight44 Thanks for noticing! RUclips released its auto-transcription awhile back which makes any video searchable and uses those transcriptions for video search functions. All of that kinda made this ~very time consuming~ work mostly obsolete. It took me about 2x the length of a video to do this. I was looking up the common names when not provided and the proper spelling/currently accepted scientific names. It was fun work while I had the time. Cheers!
Your ability to take a superficially mundane subject/species and make it fascinating is unmatched anywhere. This was a great video. Thank you for everything you do!
The Chicago version of "nice" is more historically accurate. It's historically related to the French word "nieseu", which basically means simple and dumb, and "t'es nieseu?" (Are you being nice?) means something like "Are you fucking with me/Are you fucking around?". Just a bit of intercultural fuckery we can share 👍
Really great for fire starting. Had to build a fire out in the wilds of idaho recently but no good tinder as everything was wet from the rain. But i tell ya, that dang witches hair/old mans beard did the trick!
The chartreuse lichen is Letharia. I don't see any Usnea, but Letharia and Usnea are in the same family. The lichen which is all over the branches is Hypogymnia. If you look closely (not sure if you can see in the video) it's hollow, which is why they're called tube lichens. While I don't advocate using lichens as antibiotics, if you do please don't ingest either Letharia or Usnea. Letharia is also know as the wolf lichen as it contains vulpinic acid was soaked with meat to poison wolves and foxes. Usnic acid in Usnea can also be poisonous.
I worked for the Dupage Co. Forest Preserve District for a few summers back in the late 80s/early 90s. I'm not offended at all (suburban horror in abundance), but I will say that there's lots of good stuff out there, and we were trying our best with the limited resources and feeble knowledge of the leadership.
I really want Joey to go to Montana and explore. So many places from the Ross Creek Cedars in Cabinet mountains out to the badlands of Makoshika. I feel like it's a badge of honor if he is out exploring in your area.
hey man, dunno if you saw, but he's done some stuff over there the past little bit. don't know if it is the exact stuff you're talking about because i mostly just see his instagram content in passing and only tune into here if i have lots of time on my hands, but something's better than nothing, right?
I know you don’t want to do it, but I gotta add fuel to the fire. Video podcasts would probably go crazy in your channel. Especially when you can get friends on, other botanists, geologists, mycologists etc. A man can dream.
I'm likin' the lichen.This reminds me of the first CPBBD video I saw; the power company easements of the piney pinelands, and the carnivorous plants found therein.
I'd love to see you explore the crazy trees and lichens in the North Atlantic, specifically Newfoundland. It's not your usual dry extreme type of location, but we've got some fascinating geology, and adapted plants.
My parents has a Bald Cypress which is native to their area which they planted in an open area which matches up nicely with the old growth native Eastern Hemlocks on their property, which I didn't know but is now listed as threatened. P.S.- because of the devastating wild fires of several years ago, Florida has adopted a regime of controlled fires, done at the correct time of the year with proper precautions it has almost eliminated out of control wildfires, when they do happen they are confined to areas that is more manageable.
Please come to Vermont. I loved it when you walked us through a California grocery store and they were selling fiddle heads. I am surrounded with fiddle head ferns. So yummy!!!!!
"What're ya, fuckin' around?" Earlier: Shaking a tree branch in the woods, moaning. Exposed rock, shady elven forests. Everything's covered in loads either way.
LAKE WHALES RIDGELINE!!! you wont be upset its worth dealing with Florida man trust me.. i live in that area Polk county Florida and hike it almost every weekend, its currently the home of the most rare and endangered plants/animals in the continental us. there is also two named mountains in the ridgeline!!
I second this...come before the developers eat it all up. I've seen them chopping up state forests all over...nothing is sacred and lake Wales ridge is being impacted more and more each year. Sad sad sad times. I need to get back down there...miss seeing the scrub jays and the blasting 105 degree heat at 2 in the PM in July...cant go to the "formal gardens" of bok tower anymore such a tourist trap at least they have their native habitat sort of in tact. Where do you hike specifically? Damn I miss my old home (not 99% of the people mostly just the biodiversity).
Ya I'm with ya small controled fires and less loging. Oh can we see you do a video on trees you planted or you getting tweakers to pull mustard plants for 20$. Anyways I hope you had a good day and see you in next video 🤟
In the central Sierras, I see areas where the firs and pine can not complete with the black oaks. The oaks in the shade die out, those out on the granite domes with thin soil do better.
Definitely get a good field microscope for a smart device or laptop. We'd all love to hear your commentary on the reproductive bits under magnification.
NorCal is the prettiest part of Cali. I always enjoy driving around there. A lot of the logging there is pine products and various conifer, and cedar. A lot of work in parts of the region is reclamation of fire damage aka chips and salable logs if any. And of course replanting afterwords.
If I stepped outside now, I'd get a huge load blown on me by some microstrobilis. I have some seriously lewd flowering pine trees in my yard right now.
Damn so close to where I live. It would be awesome next time your in this area to meet up and learn more about my local areas and maybe show you some areas a little more off the beaten path. If you drove on 299 east and drove through round mountain you were close to my parents place. The fountain fire in the early 90's actually started at the bottom of there hill my dad was the first on the fire. The news said it was a suspected arsonist but the same day pg&e was working on the power lines right around where the fire started, so the news was probably bullshit. Who knows though thats just what my parents and a few neighbors said they noticed I was only 2 at the time. If you go down big bend road you could find some cool stuff they have yew trees, dogwoods, ammonite fossils, and all sorts of other random plants that the surrounding areas dont have. Big bend road even cuts through to Mcloud so its just west of Burney which you can take Hagen flats road to big bend from Burney which has some nice camp grounds along the creek. Love your videos and am always looking forward to the more local ones
I once saw a grove of trees I assumed were some kind of tall juniper on a ridge high above Port Angeles on the Olympic NF. The trees were not on my plot so I did not really worry about them, but I think about them from time to time. The area is exposed and rocky with lots of kinnickinick. They looked a lot like these. Is it possible that far north?
I wonder if those immature megastrobili are sticky and resinous in order to ensure the pollen get on there real nice, making sure they bang? too bad here in southcoast MA i dont think there are any baker cypress. i really wanna look at them in person.
So are the cypress growing at you Ma's house in full sun with good deep soil? What kinds of soil are there in Chicago? (And try not to let yourself get carried away with that.)
7:15 I would shit myself with giddiness if you released an album of you singing what-the-fuck-ever you want. Like 16 to 20 songs. Please make it happen, Senpai.
Do they have a taproot that drives into cracks and crevices or do the roots grow more laterally kinda like the thuja and taxus that are planted in the hedgerows of my local suburbia?
I'd like to spend more effort studying Picea breweriana, Brewer's Weeping Spruce. In 2019 I was on the Pacific Crest Trail in the Trinity Alps and slept under a huge weeping tree next to a little alpine lake which turned out to be that spruce. Beautiful, especially the bark, and also very rare. I snapped a lot of photos of it and looked it up when I got into the next town.
A lot of those low grade trees get pulped and turned into paper products, or of they are really bad, lignin is extracted and then the fiber gets pressed into OSB, fiber board and made into dogshit ikea furniture.

Sarcasm is the best, especially incognito sarcasm
The french understand tolerable disdain.
That’s pretty gneiss
Très bien expliqué Monsieur Plante.
The lichen at 5:43 looks like Usnea, also called "old man's beard" and is used medicinally as an antibiotic alternative.
It is Usnea

I feel so impure after the baker cypress dongs.... and also slightly heated 😳
"They're just blowing loads all over the place". Quote of the day!
Qué buen video hermoso paisaje y hermosos árboles el río, muchísimas gracias por ese valioso trabajo de botánico
I know you don’t want to do it, but I gotta add fuel to the fire. Video podcasts would probably go crazy in your channel. Especially when you can get friends on, other botanists, geologists, mycologists etc.
A man can dream.
He has a podcast. You can find it if you search for cpbbd podcast. Audio only tho
Man when he smacked all that pollen off I went into anaphylaxis.
I'm likin' the lichen.This reminds me of the first CPBBD video I saw; the power company easements of the piney pinelands, and the carnivorous plants found therein.
Doggy ice-cubes w/boullion are great! (my dog likes them too)
One of the only channels, which has such long videos that I have no problem watching every second of.
Thank You. Saw down all the white firs. I agree. They thrive off of all of the anthropogenic nitrogen added to the forest by dry deposition.

🍄 Fungus is the vanguard for reforestation. 🍄
Fungus also signals that it's been a while since a wildfire too because the heat spread so far underground even deeply underneath the organic topsoil.

Hey, I'm an arborist in training in Europe and know nothing about lichen yet, any book recommendations?
A lot of those low grade trees get pulped and turned into paper products, or of they are really bad, lignin is extracted and then the fiber gets pressed into OSB, fiber board and made into dogshit ikea furniture.
