Another day hanging out with the Pine Siskins! Filmed this with a cell phone and the volume is a little low so you'll have to crank it up high or use headphones if you want to hear.

Red Squirrel Prepares for Winter




This beautiful film shows a red squirrel stocking up on walnuts and hickory nuts for winter as the autumn leaves fall on the forest floor in the Great Smoky Mountains. Maybe Winter 2020-2021 will be a bad one, but squirrels are always ready.

Rose Breasted Grosbeaks Feast on Devil's Walking Stick Berries



Rose Breasted Grosbeaks and many other birds will feast on an early Autumn bounty of ripe dark purple berries of the Devil's Walking Stick. I have a nice large cluster of these amazing trees in the North Carolina Backyard. They are native plants and quite beneficial although they often establish in newly disturbed areas leading people to falsely believe they are some kind of exotic invasive, but no they are native plants and well known to the Cherokee (http://naeb.brit.org/uses/search/?str...). They would make a welcome addition to an eastern US Backyard and quite a conversation piece as they are rarely seen by people in the wild. Birds spread their seeds far and wide. Aralia spinosa, commonly called devil’s walking stick or Hercules club, gets its common name from the stout, sharp spines found on its leaf stalks, stems and branches. This is a large, upright, suckering, deciduous shrub that typically grows to 10-15’ tall, but infrequently grows as a small flat topped tree to as much as 35’ tall. In its native range in the eastern U.S., it is commonly found in wood margins, fields and pastures. It has interesting compound foliage, late summer flowers, juicy black fruit and spiny stems give this shrub distinctive and unique ornamental interest. Sparse, upright, mostly unbranched, club-like branches, ringed with conspicuous leaf scars and spines, are typically naked at the bottom but crowned at the top by umbrella-like canopies of huge compound leaves It has stiff branches at right angles and huge, compound leaves that are the largest in North America. New foliage is bronze changing from yellow to red-orange in the fall. This plant is easy to transplant and makes an excellent addition to a pollinator garden. The bark is gray-brown with persisting prickles and shallow furrows. Filmed with Canon SX70HS on Amazon at: https://amzn.to/2QftDPd Commision Earned 🔴 New HD videos uploaded weekly.

Old Faithful Geyser Eruption Attracts Ravens


Old Faithful Geyser eruption at Yellowstone National Park in HD from beginning to end is fascinating and awe inspiring, but what caught my eye was the small flock of ravens hanging around the pools formed by the waters of the famous geyser as it erupted. Watch closely and you'll see one take off and circle the geyser at near the peak of the eruption while others stand nearby below. They then drink the water after its cooled a bit. In between eruptions of course they work the crowds and patrol the grounds and parking lot looking for dropped food and then return for the next eruption. Corvids never fail to intrigue me.

Breaking News! - Human Bird Feeder - Pine Siskin Irruption




Big Bird News! - A historic Pine Siskin Irruption is underway across much of the United States. I take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity to turn myself into a human bird feeder in the Great Smoky Mountains. You can't have any more fun in your Backyard than this. If you are fortunate enough to have the Siskins in your Backyard give it a try. For health concerns - you can wear a mask and be sure to clean up thoroughly afterward.

Clark's Nutcracker Mini Documentary



Interesting facts about Clark's Nutcrackers filmed foraging for pine nuts at a high elevation mountain lake in the Wind River Area of Wyoming. These fascinating birds are members of the Corvid (Corvidae) or Crow family that include Jays, Crows and Ravens and are smart birds that have been mistaken for woodpeckers. One of three new bird species documented on the Lewis and Clark expedition (1804-1806). They were absolutely fascinating to watch from my tree-top level vantage point as they collected dozens of pine nuts and cached them for winter.
