Lester, you and Jami should feel so proud of the hard work you are putting in to LHL. It has been a rollercoaster for you but it looks so beautiful. A labour of love that will bring you serenity and happiness for many years to come xx
They say not to take the trees down. It's their sourse of food sources. They will keep to the one tree until its completely sourced out of food. They then will make their home in the dead trees as well.
The bird is looking for bugs...main source of food. I love them. Lots of different kinds of peckers. My favorite is the Pileated wood pecker. They are very large.
Agreed, diseased or dying. Had a few at my brothers and the trees sadly had to come down. While the woodpecker is beautiful they sure do some damage and the tree may eventually become unstable and break. Great eye for catching that! Good luck!!
Lester, when you take kale from your plant you take it from the bottom, sir, if Jami would’ve seen that she would’ve scolded you in a heartbeat lol I love bald eagles we don’t see many of them around here anymore. They are so beautiful and majestic.
Lester, I sincerely hope that none if the babies ever get attacked by the eagles 😢. The baby goats, all the cats are certainly vulnerable to the eagles 😢.
That's your man Jami ..... Dr. Google had this to say: When woodpeckers put all their focus on a single tree and begin aggressively feeding from it, this usually indicates illness in the tree or bug infestation problem. It sure is nice to see the pond so full - hopefully it's sealed itself and will stay that way. So good to see Jami without her mask and smiling - she is one incredibly strong woman.
I'm sure she'll be without her mask doing things daily at each property. I've noticed Lester gets a few seconds of her while recording in others as well. Bad boy Lester 😂😂.
Oh my goodness! I absolutely LOVE sweet Stella! She is an amazing rescue and success story thanks to you and Jami’s loving care, veterinary care and support!❤❤❤❤ She is such an asset to LHL’s! She loves those babies so much and it truly warms my heart every time I see her in your videos!!
You both are such a dynamic duo and have made such a difference in the babies lives that you have rescued! Just goes to show what a little loving care can do!🥰🥰🥰🥰
A farmer friend bottle fed a calf. We were walking across a paddock when a huge cow came galloping across to us! Scared the crap out of me! It was his bottle 'baby' 😂
What a wonderful day! We got to see Jami's beautiful face without the mask again. I have noticed it a few times but this was the closest and longest. I am so happy you are feeling confident enough to be on video again, Jami! Woooo Hoooo! ❤❤❤❤
I have to say, to watch horses gracing in a pasture, just as was caught in this video, brings with it such calmness and soul soothing I totally understand why equine assisted- therapies prove to be such helpful aids for so many human issues, including mental health. Such beautiful creatures that help us more than they will ever know....💕
@@jenniferwentland1736 Starla is such a doll I love her. I think my favorite memory of baby Starla and baby Finn was that one day that Jami and Lester were in the hot tub and Starla and Finn climbed into that little shelf behind the hot tub and cuddled for a nap. Not sure if you saw that but it was such a cute moment! They grow so fast 😭♥️
Ruby was so cute playing! Tina and Starla are in an escape club...lol. I've seen a few eagles fly near, but never that close here in Southeastern North Carolina. That was awesome!
When I grew up on the farm, one of our neighbors lost a whole litter of piglets. He laid them out on the corner of a freshly plowed field. When he looked out there later, a couple of bald eagles were scavenging the piglets.
Hey Lester and Jami. The title of the video scared me as i worry so much about all the cats and baby goats running around. Those eagles are circling for a reason... they're hungry.. please keep an extra eye on those precious babies. ❤ I thought for sure something had gotten killed by your video title, " "Eagle Attack". The horses sure looked beautiful out there grazing on the other side of the pond. It looked like a beautiful painting. Sorry i don't know why the woodpecker is eating the tree, but i bet several of your other viewers would know the answer. Hope you all have a good weekend.
I thoughtbthe same thing because of the title of the video!! I know Lester loves the eagles but I just see them as another predator for the smaller babies!!
Lester & Jami your home has stunning views thank you for sharing your coffee time. Looking at Stella staring over the pastures she’s so beautiful & her coat is glowing.♥️ It’s such a blessing seeing her recover & be a famous amazing mother to all.
LHL is so beautiful and how awesome to see it's surrounded by so much wildlife hopefully everything can coexist in harmony. Nature is so awesome. What a beautiful place to sit and watch the world go by. Between you and Jami you're creating a little piece of paradise for you both and all the babies. Thanks for letting me be a part of your day to journey threw life! Love to you Lester, Jami and all! 💞🤠👢🤠💞
Wowser...there's the beautiful Jami! It's so fantastic to see or get a glimpse of Jami's face again. Ruby still loves to kinda roughhouse with Lester then give him a kiss! The eagles are beautiful to watch as they fly overhead at Longhorn Lester's Ranch while Tina roams around the property checking everything out. I imagine that the tree that the woodpecker is working on is loaded up bugs under the bark on the tree. Each one of the holes had either bugs or little worms in them. I really enjoy the videos you present to all of us Lester because you provide some information and enjoyment to all of us every day. Have a fantastic time at all of the properties! Love and prayers!
Lester if you put the panels up you can attach a sprinkler to the top of one of the Center posts and leave a short hose attached to it. Then you just hook another hose to that hose and you can water the whole garden. We did it that way all the time when we had a garden. It works great!
I love Shell Silverstine. I have 5 sisters an a brother an my Mama would read us poems from Where the side walk ends. My favorite she used to tell us was "Kids in the tub... 'There's too many kids in this tub . There's too many elbows to scrub. I just scrubbed a behind that I know wasn't mine , There's too many kids in this Tub . 😂 God Bless y'all 💯 ❤ 🙏 🇺🇲
my idea would be insects under the bark. Can't believe how big Ruby is now! Makes Dani look little! Eagles are so beautiful in flight. Light and love ya'll ❤
Woodpeckers peck to get Bugs. Maybe check if tree is diseased with bugs. Horses look so majestic. Starla is a unique little girl. Loved video. Blessings to LHL 🙏🫶🥰🫶
A beautiful eagle ,poor Tina walking like a old lady,starla the ascape artist,a beautiful view, a woodpecker and coffee on LHL 😅 thats life...and yes i think that tree is going to dy ....thanks for heaving us on your doorstep 👍😘🍀
It may still take several years for a woodpecker's attention to open a tree to enough damage to kill it. The smallest woodpeckers may even extend a tree's life by ridding it of pests, without great damage.
Lovely view ,the horses are beautiful ,Tina wings are amazing ,the security coming up the drive way to check in with the boss 😅,thank you both .🐾🐱👋🤗☘️💚
I just wanted to say I am happy to see Jami is starting to be a little more comfortable being on camera without her mask for short periods. She looks amazing and just as beautiful as always. From what I have heard about woodpeckers in my years, they peck holes to get to the bugs. They don't kill a tree, but the holes they peck can allow more pests into the tree and can possibly harm the tree, it is rare to actually have to remove a tree because of a woodpecker.
Hi Lester and Jami. Here's an idea for the garden.....putting a wooden pathway between the rows so Jami has something to stand on instead of stepping in mud when it rains. Have the pathway way go down each tier like steps. Have a gate to go in and out of tge garden area. Much love from Ontario, Canada. ❤🇨🇦
Look at them beautiful horses it’s so peaceful and loving. What a beautiful site. Wish I was there to enjoy that beautiful site. God bless sending prayers always.
Perhaps Jami could stagger the inside panels an not cover the entire line . Might add visual interest and intrigue. An act of discovery to wander around the secret places. So lucky to live in a warmer climate where you can create plant sculptures. I love your upper garden’s trellis that welcomes you into the garden’s sacred place. I love how the round shapes soften the sharp corners. All my best to you. Oh! Keep Mabel otta that truck with the stone gravel shuffle. One or two episodes as she approaches vehicle will be enough to cure her of ever never going near it. As always, Thank You for sharing your lives with us, we are so blessed that you do.
Lester, really enjoyed your video! Hello Jami! I just love how you talk to all your animals and brightens my late afternoon! Looks absolutely so beautiful and peaceful there! Love y'all and God Bless You!❤️
The wind blowing Tina's feathers is beautiful. She is a sweetheart. ❤❤❤ Everything is just beautiful there. You can see all the hard work that you both put in.😊❤😊
Tex,.loves you Lester he don't mind you in there with them...your birds are funny when they acknowledge you...wow mother nature blessed you with eagles..wow!! What a sight..keep on posting,, love it!!
What a glorious morning where you are, and seeing those gee gees graze in the distance ❤ We've woodpeckers, and don't think it'll cause too much harm to the tree. Beautiful kiddies, too. Am catching up with all if your and Jami's vids. Peace and love to you both x
Hi Lester and Jami You a’lls channels have become my favorite. If I see you post I will pause anything else . I won’t say who was my favorite. They did nothing wrong. Great channel and characters as well.
What a lovely video…just relaxin’ & chillaxin’ @ the Greenhouse watching all the animals…Starla coming up to have coffee too is so sweet…I love that Christmas is takin’ a morning dip in the beautiful pond…Stella with her bi-valve ears on alert…the horses grazing in serenity…the Eagle wonderin how to get that Ostrich egg…Tina out & about…Woody Woodpecker..well..doing’ what woodpeckers do….Gorgeous Jami without her mask looks stunning…It’s ALL so good @ LHL’s 🥰
Seeing Jami's smile 😊 as she's sitting there on the greenhouse porch just made my day 🤗. That's one thing I have missed . Jami, I'm a stroke survivor from Easter Sunday April 8, 2008, myself. I understand the self consciousness you are feeling. I've been in Your shoes. I took my years of therapy, physical and mental, to accept my self. My husband and children accepted me all along. It took my mom telling me God did this (my stroke) for a reason. And I love you young lady i have since you were conceived. Now, you have to love yourself. I lost my mom to Pancreatic cancer in the fall of 2015. And I hear her words ringing in my ears every day when I look in the mirror and smile 🥰.
@littleredhen I am so sorry you lost your Mom. I lost both my Mom and Dad. It’s still hard for me to accept they are just memories for me now. I understand both yours and Jami’s feelings of being self conscious. I was in a pretty bad accident when I was 16. It left some visible scars in my face. I was so vulnerable with how I looked. I was lucky in a way because I had a fractured scull, a brain injury and many broken bones, including my jaw, just like Jami, so having to face anyone other but my immediate family at first, wasn’t an issue for me. Facing life outside the hospital was really hard on my 16 yr old psyche. I think we are all our worse enemies, as I think now looking back, I probably felt like an ugly freak more than any of my friends thought I was, lol. Many, many years have passed and I’m over any bad feelings about any scars. In fact, it’s rarely I even think about them or seem to notice them, even when I look in a mirror. Your Mom gave you the perfect advice though. No doubt she was a very special lady. I’m truly sorry she is no longer with you and I’m positive you have an amazing smile ....💕
I never thought Id see someone play with a calf like you do, Lester.😄 How sweet and fun!! "Bald Eagle!!.... Bald ass Eagle" 😆😆 That Woody Woodpecker impersonation was GREAT!!🙌😆🤣
Lester you did a good imitation of Woody the Woodpecker. Several years years ago I had a woodpecker build a hole in the huge willlow in my in my backyard. Then they built a nest and soon they had baby’s. One afternoon after the eggs hatched,and soon in the middle of a beautiful afternoon with no breeze or clouds that section of that tree fell down suddenly. The tree section was covering both the upper and lower patio was covered with the tree,it tore down the electric to the house broke the patio table a small statue, the clay burning vessel, and the section holding the nest. The parents flew off and during the night something took all babies away. The tree guy asked me to come outside, and told me to look at my grass,and it was moving all over my backyard. He told me that when they took down the tree, earwig poured out of the tree and to put down insecticide so they wouldn’t come in my house. That tree might be infected with insects and could come down like mine. If you have a structure nearby,you might watch and consider trimming it back if nothing else. Good luck.
Jami, I suggest to put down "stepping stones." You can get them from Lowes, Menards and any gardening stores. You can get them in different color stones. This gives you access to your plants and weeds when needed.
I have watching your channels for a number of years and remember when you all got LHL property. It has gone through an amazing transformation! It really looks like a homestead! So quaint and comfortable looking. I can’t wait till the garden complex comes about!
I love the Long horns. 😍 I so love Ruby and Dani 😍❤ So sweet and beautiful. Our animals at home were spoiled also. I love all the animals on Morrow Hill, LHL, and JL ranch. You both are so loving and caring about the animals. Bless you both. Thank you for the videos. 😍
I'm so happy that you guy's found and rescued our sweet STELLA, AND CHRISTMAS.❤🥰🐕🐕🥰❤ They both look soooo good and healthy ❣️❣️❣️ Especially STELLA... She looked like she had one foot in the grave, She really looked pathetic, poor baby girl 😢 But look at them now 😍 Stella has put on weight and her coat is so shiny and thick 😍 And Christmas is just so darn happy and excited everyday ☺️ When it's time to go see everyone at ISS, AND THE J-L Ranch... THEY ARE DEFINITELY LIVING THEIR BEST LIVES WITH YOU AND JAMI. It makes me SOOOO HAPPY, SEEING THEM SO HAPPY AND HEALTHY. THANK YOU BOTH FOR OPENING YOUR HEART'S AND HOME TO THEM. I don't think Stella had much time left there on the MEAN STREETS. ❣️😍🥰🐕🐕🥰😍❣️
Woodpeckers usually only go for trees that are dead or dying, that’s what attracted bugs they eat on. I have pileated and red headed woodpeckers. Pileated woodpeckers are so big compared to others. They will also make holes and put acorns in the holes for winter feeding! Wonderful to see the eagles, mating season is starting!❤️🇨🇦
Lester, I heard thEagles when you first came out focused on Tina. We have a nesting pair here every year at the lake near us. Plus I watch them on live cam in various western states. Kitties need to duck out of site when eagles are around. Love Stella and she loves her goats! I like woodpeckers! I like to watch them peel bark off going for bugs or making nest in trees. We have had a couple of nests here. As long as he doesn't strip the inner bark it will heal. He is going for bugs & grubs. Stella is a good dog! Best check your fences for escape holes. Cheers 👍💕
Man oh man.. Big steps and beautiful changes taking place in this video😊 You guys look fantastic! Longhorn Lester's is thriving HECK Even the porch geese are looking their best. ❤Love you both...
In Syracuse NY, we have tons of amazing Eagles living by our shopping mall that borders Onondaga Lake. They started appearing years ago because the water there is warm coming out of the treatment plant. They can eat there all winter/year. It's a real event as people gather each day to see them
I love see you give lives to ruby they all need to be tamed up & lived on .. 😅😅😅... I kno u can't risk life& limb u hv the ones u trust & the ones u have to beware of ...love seeing g u play& give love to all the babies u possibly can....❤🎉❤❤❤🎉❤❤❤🎉❤
I think when this video came out coming home from a doctors visit there was a bald eagle that was in the ditch then it flew right up in front of my car which i thought I was going to hit it on the highway with all the rest of the car's around me. There have been time's when I was so close to them in person. One came down at me going into my car at someone house and then coming home from work in the morning it was right in the middle of the road eating something besides fishing all the time. I love seeing them so much. Loved the woody sound Lester which it sound just like him. They would peck on the side of my mom's house with the real wood shingles all the time. Then my mom put up a fake one they never came back.
Oh what a beautiful morning... It is very pretty there. Nice garden area. I'd adore to have some of that kale! When the kids I helped raise (sister and two of my cousins), were little they were intrigued with how dull green kale would instantly turn the prettiest bright blue green! I'd serve it buttered with lemon juice. And they would eat it up! Finances are tighter and tighter for us these days. We're older and I'm disabled, city dwellers. Not ever going to feel right being out of the country life. You kids are soooo blessed. So glad to see Jami running around doing so well now. We don't mind woodpeckers in our brick home...but growing up? Oh my! My daddy tried everything to keep the woodpeckers off the pecky cypress siding he put on our beautifully built home he designed. It looks as if the wp is working up a line of sap...sap can be sweet depending on the tree and season. What an exciting start to the day! I'm just now getting up!
You've got yourself an escape artist organization going on. Those goats are so funny finding ways to get out. We have chickens that are good at getting out of their pen. Gotta love 'em all.
Jami your Gardens going to be beautiful. Lester everything is looking fabulous on JL Ranch and Longhorn Lester's. Jami I love you're so happy. Love ya both.
When my nephew was 3 years old he would watch Woody Woodpecker and of course Aunt Kathy and Granny Elizabeth watched it with him. He called it Woodypecker.😂😂
Lester that absolutely was the call that Woody Woodpecker made. Woodpeckers drill into the bark to eat grubs and bugs that are underneath. They don’t eat the bark. My ex and I used to have them living in the woods at the back of our house, they also will eat peanuts and seeds from a feeder. As a kid I loved the Woody Woodpecker cartoon. I think that Jami is going to have to grow a lot more of that kale for the ostriches if they need luring back to their pastures 🫣
Put a big smile on my face Lester, Jamie love watching your videos😊 love seeing them bald eagle love them they’re beautiful😊 that is such a beautiful site. Sit there in the morning drink your coffee watching them horses nothing like it beautiful Lester please don’t call you guys self dumb. You guys are very far from dumb. You are smart, smart people. Lester, I think you’re right I think that is from the woodpecker. I think he likes the taste of that tree or there’s bugs in that tree that he wants.
Trees are pretty resilient.. like everything they are actively in the process of dying but doesnt mean they need to be cut down.. I’ve had professionals, say a tree needed to be removed and 20 years later its still standing strong.
Awwwe The geese are dressed up cute! Idk if Jami did it or Lester did. But they are sure cute. It wouldn’t be a LHL video without all the beautiful animals. Thank you for all you do for the animals.
Going into winter, larvae are plump and delicious (if you're a woodpecker), and it's these juicy morsels for which the woodpeckers will strip the outer bark from the tree, sometimes starting at the ground and working all the way to the top. If the extensive pecking off of the bark goes all the way around a tree, it can cause damage and death to the tree. To protect trees from woodpeckers, wrap barriers of 1/4 inch hardware cloth, plastic mesh, or burlap around injured areas to discourage further damage. This method may be practical for high-value ornamental or shade trees. In addition, wind chimes, mirrors (that reflect larger than the source), and cat nip are all non-toxic ways of scaring off woodpeckers. Also mount fake owls 🦉 & eagles 🦅 to scare them off. They are a federally protected species so no lethal methods, not that Lester would ever consider that anyways. 💕
This is what I found about your woodpecker. Woodpeckers remove outer layers of bark so that they can more easily punch their beaks through the remaining bark to get at the tasty, plump larvae underneath.Apr 3, 2018
Lester, you and Jami should feel so proud of the hard work you are putting in to LHL. It has been a rollercoaster for you but it looks so beautiful. A labour of love that will bring you serenity and happiness for many years to come xx
Well said Ann!
Perfectly said ❤️ 🙏 and thank you for sharing your journey.
They say not to take the trees down. It's their sourse of food sources. They will keep to the one tree until its completely sourced out of food. They then will make their home in the dead trees as well.
@@JamieSunila I did not know they eat the actual bark also?Very interesting!
The bird is looking for bugs...main source of food. I love them. Lots of different kinds of peckers. My favorite is the Pileated wood pecker. They are very large.
The woodpecker is eating the bugs in the tree. This means your tree is diseased, and the woodpecker is having a great meal.
That’s interesting to know! Thanks Norma.
Agreed, diseased or dying. Had a few at my brothers and the trees sadly had to come down. While the woodpecker is beautiful they sure do some damage and the tree may eventually become unstable and break. Great eye for catching that! Good luck!!

Amen to that
I also hope that doesn’t happen.
Yep I did it at the same time.., if he is chipping away, it can be dying. Do you see dust when he chips away?
Looking for soft spots
Pond is high. Looks beautiful

My heart swells every time I see Stella in the videos! I just love that girl!❤❤
You both are such a dynamic duo and have made such a difference in the babies lives that you have rescued! Just goes to show what a little loving care can do!🥰🥰🥰🥰
Ruby is the cutest calf and so playful! She will be an absolute handful when she’s full grown with horns, oh my 😮
She certainly will be!
A farmer friend bottle fed a calf. We were walking across a paddock when a huge cow came galloping across to us! Scared the crap out of me! It was his bottle 'baby' 😂
Will the eagle get those baby goats
Ruby reminds me of Miracle
@@glendaruff125 possible if mom leaves them unguarded.
Woody is eating BUGS in the tree! starla needs a camera attached to her so you all can see what she's doing. That might help secure her better.
Good Idea 😊
Jamie saw her literally climb one of the fence gates to get out the other day.
What a wonderful day! We got to see Jami's beautiful face without the mask again. I have noticed it a few times but this was the closest and longest. I am so happy you are feeling confident enough to be on video again, Jami! Woooo Hoooo! ❤❤❤❤
Jami your so beautiful! I'm glad your feeling better about yourself.❤
Awww!.. Jus LUV that sweet Ruby Sue..n Dani too!! 💞💯👍
The best
Bald eagles, like other eagles worldwide, had been seen by many as symbols of strength, courage, freedom and immortality for generations.
You got that right! 😊
The wind was blowing through Tina’s feathers and it made her look even more beautiful ❤❤❤❤
I was saying that to myself, too! She looked so pretty with the wind blowing through her feathers!
I have to say, to watch horses gracing in a pasture, just as was caught in this video, brings with it such calmness and soul soothing I totally understand why equine assisted- therapies prove to be such helpful aids for so many human issues, including mental health.

Agreed!!!
I knew that Ruby and Dani had grown but actually seeing them next to Lester from a distance makes me realize how much they've actually grown, wow!!
I know right!
Absolutely! Ruby's a little tank!
@@joshx022 👏👏👏
I was thinking the exact same thing about Starla when she came up on the porch of the greenhouse. My how she’s grown!

The eagle is a beautiful thing to see! Wonderful to see you don’t see them very much you are blessed.
It truly is beautiful.
In my area, eagles are far more common than they were 40 years ago.
Lester, everything looks so beautiful at LHL's. That shot of the horses and the pond was absolutely stunning, so serene and idyllic. 😍
Ruby was so cute playing! Tina and Starla are in an escape club...lol. I've seen a few eagles fly near, but never that close here in Southeastern North Carolina. That was awesome!
There is something about all the horses on the hill that is so beautiful to me.
@@gaileldridge3585 I agree. So pretty!

Longhorn Lester’s is even more beautiful on my television. Didn’t know I could watch you on my television. You guys are almost life size. 😂❤
Good to know 😂
The view behind the tree that the woodpecker is at is just absolutely beautiful. Look at how beautiful all the horses look behind the tall trees
Look at them beautiful horses it’s so peaceful and loving. What a beautiful site. Wish I was there to enjoy that beautiful site. God bless sending prayers always.
Perhaps Jami could stagger the inside panels an not cover the entire line . Might add visual interest and intrigue. An act of discovery to wander around the secret places. So lucky to live in a warmer climate where you can create plant sculptures. I love your upper garden’s trellis that welcomes you into the garden’s sacred place. I love how the round shapes soften the sharp corners. All my best to you. Oh! Keep Mabel otta that truck with the stone gravel shuffle. One or two episodes as she approaches vehicle will be enough to cure her of ever never going near it. As always, Thank You for sharing your lives with us, we are so blessed that you do.
I love it when Lester is kissing Ruby Sue. That’s so very precious. ❤❤❤
I know, it reminds me of when Paw Paw kisses Ivan. 🙂💟🐴
Lester, really enjoyed your video! Hello Jami! I just love how you talk to all your animals and brightens my late afternoon! Looks absolutely so beautiful and peaceful there! Love y'all and God Bless You!❤️

Hi Lester and Jami
You a’lls channels have become my favorite. If I see you post I will pause anything else .
I won’t say who was my favorite. They did nothing wrong.
Great channel and characters as well.
Thank you kindly Christy!
I got goosebumps listening to the eagles! Such a beautiful sight! Thank you for sharing! Starla is a doll. She is so loving & curious.
What a lovely video…just relaxin’ & chillaxin’ @ the Greenhouse watching all the animals…Starla coming up to have coffee too is so sweet…I love that Christmas is takin’ a morning dip in the beautiful pond…Stella with her bi-valve ears on alert…the horses grazing in serenity…the Eagle wonderin how to get that Ostrich egg…Tina out & about…Woody Woodpecker..well..doing’ what woodpeckers do….Gorgeous Jami without her mask looks stunning…It’s ALL so good @ LHL’s 🥰
Seeing Jami's smile 😊 as she's sitting there on the greenhouse porch just made my day 🤗. That's one thing I have missed .
Jami, I'm a stroke survivor from Easter Sunday April 8, 2008, myself. I understand the self consciousness you are feeling. I've been in Your shoes. I took my years of therapy, physical and mental, to accept my self. My husband and children accepted me all along. It took my mom telling me God did this (my stroke) for a reason. And I love you young lady i have since you were conceived. Now, you have to love yourself.
I lost my mom to Pancreatic cancer in the fall of 2015. And I hear her words ringing in my ears every day when I look in the mirror and smile 🥰.
God bless and stay strong! 🙏💪
@littleredhen
I am so sorry you lost your Mom. I lost both my Mom and Dad. It’s still hard for me to accept they are just memories for me now. I understand both yours and Jami’s feelings of being self conscious. I was in a pretty bad accident when I was 16. It left some visible scars in my face. I was so vulnerable with how I looked. I was lucky in a way because I had a fractured scull, a brain injury and many broken bones, including my jaw, just like Jami, so having to face anyone other but my immediate family at first, wasn’t an issue for me. Facing life outside the hospital was really hard on my 16 yr old psyche. I think we are all our worse enemies, as I think now looking back, I probably felt like an ugly freak more than any of my friends thought I was, lol. Many, many years have passed and I’m over any bad feelings about any scars. In fact, it’s rarely I even think about them or seem to notice them, even when I look in a mirror. Your Mom gave you the perfect advice though. No doubt she was a very special lady. I’m truly sorry she is no longer with you and I’m positive you have an amazing smile ....💕
I never thought Id see someone play with a calf like you do, Lester.😄 How sweet and fun!!
"Bald Eagle!!.... Bald ass Eagle" 😆😆
That Woody Woodpecker impersonation was GREAT!!🙌😆🤣
Great video jamie and lester😊😊
Gorgeous seeing all the horses grazing across the lake! ❤️
There is a bug under the bark he whants
The horse herd look's wonderful. They must be so happy on this property. THIS is a horse life!!👍👍👍❤️
Lester you did a good imitation of Woody the Woodpecker. Several years years ago I had a woodpecker build a hole in the huge willlow in my in my backyard. Then they built a nest and soon they had baby’s. One afternoon after the eggs hatched,and soon in the middle of a beautiful afternoon with no breeze or clouds that section of that tree fell down suddenly. The tree section was covering both the upper and lower patio was covered with the tree,it tore down the electric to the house broke the patio table a small statue, the clay burning vessel, and the section holding the nest. The parents flew off and during the night something took all babies away. The tree guy asked me to come outside, and told me to look at my grass,and it was moving all over my backyard. He told me that when they took down the tree, earwig poured out of the tree and to put down insecticide so they wouldn’t come in my house. That tree might be infected with insects and could come down like mine. If you have a structure nearby,you might watch and consider trimming it back if nothing else. Good luck.
I love the baby longhorns. Ruby and Dani are my favorite
Jami, I suggest to put down "stepping stones." You can get them from Lowes, Menards and any gardening stores. You can get them in different color stones. This gives you access to your plants and weeds when needed.
I have watching your channels for a number of years and remember when you all got LHL property. It has gone through an amazing transformation! It really looks like a homestead! So quaint and comfortable looking. I can’t wait till the garden complex comes about!
I am watching after work ❤Thank you so much Lester and Jami for your video.😊
oh shit Lester, dont scare me like that, i was so affraid that one of the babies had been attacked but the eagles, you got me good lol
Jami looks as pretty as ever❤
You’re so kind Marie.
That tree is not dying, the woodpecker is peeling off the bark to get to the bugs in the tree.
Thanks for letting me know Annetta
The Eagles probably have a nest nearby in the tallest pine tree close to the river. Looked and sounded like they were chasing an intruder away.
I love seeing the horse there! Thank you for sharing. God Bless
So happy to hear and see those Eagles. Good for Tina! If I was to pay for Postage Lester would you all be willing to share an Ostrich Egg with me?
I love the Long horns. 😍
I so love Ruby and Dani 😍❤
So sweet and beautiful. Our animals at home were spoiled also. I love all the animals on Morrow Hill, LHL, and JL ranch. You both are so loving and caring about the animals.
Bless you both. Thank you for the videos. 😍
I'm so happy that you guy's found and rescued our sweet STELLA, AND CHRISTMAS.❤🥰🐕🐕🥰❤
They both look soooo good and healthy ❣️❣️❣️
Especially STELLA... She looked like she had one foot in the grave, She really looked pathetic, poor baby girl 😢
But look at them now 😍 Stella has put on weight and her coat is so shiny and thick 😍
And Christmas is just so darn happy and excited everyday ☺️ When it's time to go see everyone at ISS, AND THE J-L Ranch... THEY ARE DEFINITELY LIVING THEIR BEST LIVES WITH YOU AND JAMI.
It makes me SOOOO HAPPY, SEEING THEM SO HAPPY AND HEALTHY. THANK YOU BOTH FOR OPENING YOUR HEART'S AND HOME TO THEM.
I don't think Stella had much time left there on the MEAN STREETS. ❣️😍🥰🐕🐕🥰😍❣️
LESTER in the middle of each tear of the garden put a step to get to the next level
Jamie you look great! It's wonderful to see you smile again!
I just love Stella's ears, they remind me of peace signs 😂❤
Woodpeckers usually only go for trees that are dead or dying, that’s what attracted bugs they eat on. I have pileated and red headed woodpeckers. Pileated woodpeckers are so big compared to others. They will also make holes and put acorns in the holes for winter feeding! Wonderful to see the eagles, mating season is starting!❤️🇨🇦
I live in the city and the houses are so close. Seeing your ranch videos is relaxing and fun.
I enjoyed the video Lester! So much going on it's good to see Jami smiling again l miss that!😊❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it
Love Stella and Christmas ❤❤
Lester, I heard thEagles when you first came out focused on Tina. We have a nesting pair here every year at the lake near us. Plus I watch them on live cam in various western states. Kitties need to duck out of site when eagles are around. Love Stella and she loves her goats!
I like woodpeckers! I like to watch them peel bark off going for bugs or making nest in trees. We have had a couple of nests here. As long as he doesn't strip the inner bark it will heal. He is going for bugs & grubs.
Stella is a good dog!
Best check your fences for escape holes.
Cheers 👍💕
Man oh man.. Big steps and beautiful changes taking place in this video😊
You guys look fantastic! Longhorn Lester's is thriving
HECK Even the porch geese are looking their best. ❤Love you both...
Lester you just sounded jet like my dad he did the woody just that way. Thank you for the memory of my dad.😊
In Syracuse NY, we have tons of amazing Eagles living by our shopping mall that borders Onondaga Lake. They started appearing years ago because the water there is warm coming out of the treatment plant. They can eat there all winter/year. It's a real event as people gather each day to see them
I love see you give lives to ruby they all need to be tamed up & lived on .. 😅😅😅...
I kno u can't risk life& limb u hv the ones u trust & the ones u have to beware of ...love seeing g u play& give love to all the babies u possibly can....❤🎉❤❤❤🎉❤❤❤🎉❤
Great to see Jami getting more comfortable in front of the camera without her mask❤️😊
I am so glad Jami is feeling more💞 comfortable without the mask. You are beautiful and we love any way we can get ya! 💕
I think when this video came out coming home from a doctors visit there was a bald eagle that was in the ditch then it flew right up in front of my car which i thought I was going to hit it on the highway with all the rest of the car's around me. There have been time's when I was so close to them in person. One came down at me going into my car at someone house and then coming home from work in the morning it was right in the middle of the road eating something besides fishing all the time. I love seeing them so much. Loved the woody sound Lester which it sound just like him. They would peck on the side of my mom's house with the real wood shingles all the time. Then my mom put up a fake one they never came back.
The horses look so awesome out in the pasture.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love Shel Silverstein poems!
Oh what a beautiful morning... It is very pretty there. Nice garden area. I'd adore to have some of that kale! When the kids I helped raise (sister and two of my cousins), were little they were intrigued with how dull green kale would instantly turn the prettiest bright blue green! I'd serve it buttered with lemon juice. And they would eat it up! Finances are tighter and tighter for us these days. We're older and I'm disabled, city dwellers. Not ever going to feel right being out of the country life. You kids are soooo blessed. So glad to see Jami running around doing so well now. We don't mind woodpeckers in our brick home...but growing up? Oh my! My daddy tried everything to keep the woodpeckers off the pecky cypress siding he put on our beautifully built home he designed. It looks as if the wp is working up a line of sap...sap can be sweet depending on the tree and season. What an exciting start to the day! I'm just now getting up!
Sweet Stella. She’s so beautiful and happy. Thank you for giving her the amazing life she deserves.
You've got yourself an escape artist organization going on. Those goats are so funny finding ways to get out. We have chickens that are good at getting out of their pen. Gotta love 'em all.
I definitely do! 😂😂
What a great way to start your day!! 💗🌞
Jami your Gardens going to be beautiful. Lester everything is looking fabulous on JL Ranch and Longhorn Lester's. Jami I love you're so happy. Love ya both.
When my nephew was 3 years old he would watch Woody Woodpecker and of course Aunt Kathy and Granny Elizabeth watched it with him. He called it Woodypecker.😂😂
My biggest concern with the eagles is the possibility of them grabbing one of the baby goats
I could see myself sitting there drinking coffee. You have a beautiful place. Take care and stay safe. God bless
LHL is one of the prettiest farm around the video world right now I’d love to live there and relax on that patio with that view
Lester that absolutely was the call that Woody Woodpecker made. Woodpeckers drill into the bark to eat grubs and bugs that are underneath. They don’t eat the bark. My ex and I used to have them living in the woods at the back of our house, they also will eat peanuts and seeds from a feeder. As a kid I loved the Woody Woodpecker cartoon. I think that Jami is going to have to grow a lot more of that kale for the ostriches if they need luring back to their pastures 🫣
Put a big smile on my face Lester, Jamie love watching your videos😊 love seeing them bald eagle love them they’re beautiful😊 that is such a beautiful site. Sit there in the morning drink your coffee watching them horses nothing like it beautiful Lester please don’t call you guys self dumb. You guys are very far from dumb. You are smart, smart people. Lester, I think you’re right I think that is from the woodpecker. I think he likes the taste of that tree or there’s bugs in that tree that he wants.
You are so kind
Love eagles. We have both gold and bald eagles here in northeast Oregon. They are such majestic birds.
Trees are pretty resilient.. like everything they are actively in the process of dying but doesnt mean they need to be cut down.. I’ve had professionals, say a tree needed to be removed and 20 years later its still standing strong.
So horses are so beautiful in the background ❤❤❤❤
I love that we have many Eagles nesting in our forest up here!
They are amazing! 👀❤💕✌
Love seeing the Eagles we have them around us like that as well. Indiana girl
Awwwe The geese are dressed up cute! Idk if Jami did it or Lester did. But they are sure cute. It wouldn’t be a LHL video without all the beautiful animals. Thank you for all you do for the animals.
Woodpecker on a tree usually means there are bugs in the tree which indicates the tree is dead or dying. Man everything looks SO beautiful ❤️❤️
Going into winter, larvae are plump and delicious (if you're a woodpecker), and it's these juicy morsels for which the woodpeckers will strip the outer bark from the tree, sometimes starting at the ground and working all the way to the top.
If the extensive pecking off of the bark goes all the way around a tree, it can cause damage and death to the tree. To protect trees from woodpeckers, wrap barriers of 1/4 inch hardware cloth, plastic mesh, or burlap around injured areas to discourage further damage. This method may be practical for high-value ornamental or shade trees. In addition, wind chimes, mirrors (that reflect larger than the source), and cat nip are all non-toxic ways of scaring off woodpeckers. Also mount fake owls 🦉 & eagles 🦅 to scare them off. They are a federally protected species so no lethal methods, not that Lester would ever consider that anyways.
💕
This is what I found about your woodpecker. Woodpeckers remove outer layers of bark so that they can more easily punch their beaks through the remaining bark to get at the tasty, plump larvae underneath.Apr 3, 2018
