Thank you, It takes a good man with a kind heart to walk away and allow the bird family to raise the babies. I feed the birds and have nest boxes all over my 4 acres in Alabama. The birds do a great job eating the biting gnats and mosquitoes. Thanks again for your compassion
I am enjoying who you are and the ambience of your channel more and more as I watch your videos. Living in harmony with nature and honouring the spirits of the living things give you a quality of everyday life that heals the heart, eh? Always surprised that there are areas of adequate rain in Portugal, great to learn about the country as well. I didn't catch whether that drain pipe was a French drain or not and if so how the sand will impact it over time. Such huge stones in your area, the house and other buildings are made to last time that's for sure.
Hi Joaquim, I'm new to your channel and have just watched all of your vlogs. Restoring your Grandparents old home is admirable and I'm sure very satisfying for you and your family. I love the view from the window at the start of this video, it's really beautiful ❤️ thank you for sharing with us 👍🇦🇺
Love how you give the nesting birds and carpenter bees a chance to grow up or relocate 👩🏼🦳👍🏼. Tho your doggo seems to snarf 🐝flybys. I appreciate how thoughtful and methodical you work. I've had agitta watching a few other haphazardly "make a go" at work they've never done with mixed results 😬. Kittens 🙆🏻♀️. You got at least one girl with the calico's coat of many colors. The little black seems very into the human photographing them. Hope they can stick around and help with pest control. Probably would benefit all around from neutering/spaying them when they're old enough. The defense against water ingress you made outside looks great. Thanks for the nice vlogs.
As I watch, I sometimes wonder, how are your thoughts from when your were a child? From how the farm was, to how you will rebuild it and make improvements. Thank you for sharing your journey. You have experience and knowledge that is long lost to so many. Some things that you think may not be interesting are valuable lessons for others. Honouring the past and bringing it into the present is a very interesting project.
You’re welcome. This place offers me a sense of peace, and of belonging. I care very much to preserve its original beauty, so the changes that I’m making have to take that into consideration
In our country, it is considered very bad luck to destroy a nest with chicks. I don't know if this is true, but I know someone who, when he rebuilt his house, threw out the nest with the chicks. The next day, one of the walls of the house collapsed. I'm not kidding
@@Joaquim_Conde Sure are, but your property is bordering to a road and thus is dangerous for domestic animals. So I hope you take necessary precautions to protect that kitten.
Thanks for the question. The soil there is a kind of corse sand, we call saibro. It’s very permeable and will take centuries before enough fine sediment migrates into the tile to clog it. Not sure the tile will last that long.
Lamento imenso, mas não me parece que tenha muito “jeito” para you tuber, o melhor será certamente adoptar outra abordagem mais frontal ao problema. Cumpts.
È por demais evidente que o objectivo do Joaquim Conde não é ser you tuber mas sim, partilhar o dia a dia da concretização de um sonho que passa pela recuperação de um imóvel herdado dos seus antepassados bem como, dar-nos a conhecer os costumes e hábitos da região em que se encontra!! Temos que respeitar as limitações e conhecimentos de quem, de uma forma honesta e desinteressada, publica este tipo de conteúdo !!
Obrigado por comentar, alguns temos a coragem de fazer coisas que nunca fizemos, as vezes coisas que nos deixam vulneráveis a críticas menos construtivas, vindas de duvidosas fontes de conhecimento. Não aceitar essa realidade é como não fazer nada por medo de falhar.
Thank you for saving the birds! It's fun watching your progress.
You are so welcome!
What a lovely person. Thank you for caring so much for the birds. Very touching to see someone care.
Our pleasure!

Doing good work very hard work on a farm on your own it s nice to see old building come back to life good iuck to you
I hope that birds, in the future, remember that you saved them and don't eat your cherries 😁😁
Love hearing the whistling in the background. It makes me smile with memories of my dad whistling while he worked. Thanks for sharing.
Bravo! You are a good man ;)

Everything about this channel makes me smile. Thank you for all that you do and for the love of all critters big and small

Doing great on your Reno.🇨🇦

Wow! This is a huge project and I can't wait to see how it all comes together. Pouco pouco! 💪 Love that you saved those little birds. 😍
Thank you, so far it’s a lot of fun

Will the county road workers repair the cobbles by your house? Enjoying watching.
If they don’t, we will, we have lots of time as the ground needs to settle well before it can be done.
Thanks for commenting
Bom Trabalho 👍🏻
That is a beautiful cactus plant. Did your grandfather build the house?
Thank you.
My grandparents bought from the previous owner, who was very generous and financed it for them
👍👍👍
Looks like high pressure water is needed on the walls.
That’s all they ever need to look new again
Are you going to adopt the kitten? Or maybe it`ll be the other way round...
Cats are the best rodent control

what's the purpose of the wiping tile ,when you're dumping dirt on top instead of gravel stone!!

Volvieron los padres al nido,?
Espero que si
sound quality not very good when you are talking and turning away from camera.
I keep subtitles on to "catch" things i don't hear clearly. Hooe this helps.
Working on it, thanks for the feedback
