    Hi there. I grew up in Portugal, my family moved there when I and my brothers and sisters were around 9 and 10 years old and lived there for 27 years. I'm now back in the UK. I just wanted to say thankyou to you both for such genuine, educational and humourous videos! You both have great attitudes and work so hard.
    I'm so happy for you to have started this amazing fulfilling adventure together ❤

    So nice to see you both -- you seem like such nice people. In an earlier video, the little lady scared the hell out of me --- swinging the ax, I feared if she missed the chunk of wood, the blade would go right through her shin. Yes, if I didn't worry, I'd have no hobby at all. Aside from that it's always good fun. Watch out for the wild boar -- if it's too hungry, either one of you would be good eatin'. And BTW, sorry if this is too nosey, but it looks so rural, how much land do you have???? The acres seen to go on and on!!!! Writing in Manhattan, where I have to make do with Central Park as my backyard, I'm absolutely green with envy.

    Love the behind-the-scenes activities!!!!!! for your sake I wish for Dan to come back real soon, as you must be lonely. It was nice to see the wildlife in the woods, but as a child I was so scared of the raposa (fox), but the last time I was in Portugal my sister told me about the wild boars, now they are at the top of my list. Here in Canada, we have big scary ones in our woods, bears, moose, and many types of deer etc. But I live in the city, and most of the very scary Wildlife is on 2 legs. That soup you made looked so Yummy Good, I shall try to copy and make some for us. Take care and stay safe from those wild boars, and tell Dan to back soon, we all miss him, as you 2 make a very nice Twosome.

    Great work setting up the TrailCam,its always interesting to see whats lurking. I started using TrailCams in my wood 2 years ago,and have caught nice deer,badgers,birds,stoats and all sorts of antics as they passby,which i post on my channel also. I used to take it up and down,but now i keep it going all the time in different locations,and just switch the sd card. Its always so much fun to check it on the computer,often with some nice surprises. The first clip you showed was a larger bird,which i was wondering if it was a Jay? I am quite passionate about the birds here in the Uk,and am interested to see what species you have there,in Portugal. Hope you can keep the TrailCam going some more. I use the Wimius H8 which has served me well. Best wishes from Devon
