      Agreed. I think it is because birds cannot sit in front of screens and program each other. She does what the digital generation can't mostly: think and see through the eyes of animals AS conscious beings, not programmable bots.

    The idea of Duke screeching at peregrines like an angry old man telling kids to get off his lawn is so charming to me. I get that it's Duke's territory and he's not doing it to be funny but I do find it amusing nonetheless.

    I. Can't. Get. Enough!
    I've become a bird lady at almost 40! I now sit out front every single morning and feed my new friends... They quickly realized I'm a great source of food so I get to watch them every morning.
    Crows, tons of Blue Jays, Grackles (I think that's what they are called), pigeons that mostly hang out next door but pop over to see what I've got now and again. And I know we have a red tailed hawk too, only saw him with my own two eyes once so far... but he is around every day because boy do the other birds gets angry as all heck when he comes around. 😜 It's a very distinct sound when they are all warning each other.
    It's incredible, if not for this channel, I would have never even known to look each of these birds up and learn about them... How smart all of these birds are, they all can recognize human faces, are social and loving. They are just incredible little animals and absolutely fascinating.
    I'm so glad I found your channel. It's actually a blessing to me in a deeper way than 'just' learning to love and appreciate these little creatures. I suffer from some pretty intense PTSD/Depression/General Anxiety and being locked in my home has been... Well, difficult. This is the perfect thing to do to get me outside (and even here in FL it's not too hot in the early mornings), is easy to do and brings joy which always helps chase away the dark. Same with your videos.
    So glad I found you. 🙂🥰

I can spend hours just doing that, they also ride the Thermals effortlessly... I have also been privileged to see Lanners, and Sakers in the wild out in Turkey, when I was a teenager... and had my breath taken away seeing a wild Peregrine stoop on some pigeons up in the North East UK too...

We’ve always got the binoculars handy so we can check out what’s going on. The education and awareness that you provide the public is so important. You allow people to see the value in these species. I love all the things you’ve taught me. Thanks for sharing your life with us, Amy.

    I live on the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia. I live in a rural area so coastal woodlands are very close. I often see hawks but rarely see falcon...I do have a long term nesting pair of Bald Eagles less than 100 metres from my house that is an endless joy to watch. So too the many Ravens in the area (my fav.)I often get Barred Owls and the occasional Pygmy Owl. I even had visit from a pair of Great Horned Owls. I've always been fascinated with birds but Corvids Raptors and Hummingbirds are the ones enjoy the most. I am a new sub thankyou for your great content 👍😎
