Red Squirrels Incredible Hoarding Behavior



A Play-by-Play analysis of a Red Squirrel making a cache of sunflower seeds! Faced with a bounty of black oil sunflower seeds a red squirrel's amazing work ethic and energy kicks in and he works as fast as he can to take them one by one to a cache where they can be eaten later. This is unusual manic behavior even for a larder hoarding red squirrel, although admirable. Most would just eat the small seeds as fast as they can with little thought for the future in mid-May, Winter is a long way off.

Ovenbird Warbler Mini-Documentary



Unusual video of a migratory Ovenbird Warbler in Florida walking the forest floor litter foraging and finding bugs in classic Ovenbird fashion. They are quiet and elusive on their wintering grounds, but this bird is no doubt heading way north in early May to their breeding grounds. Subject to predation by cats which is confirmed by a disturbing guest visitor at the end of the clip. More on this new feral/abandoned cat in the future.

Amazing Crow and Blue Jay Predator Mobbing Alarm Calls



Amazing ear-splitting rackets made by a mob of crows and jays "yelling" at a Cooper's Hawk to chase the predator fro. a giant Hemlock tree. Listen carefully and you'll even hear a tiny Chickadee join in at the beginning. It all started as I was filming a Junco who looks around and doesn't seem sure of how to react to the ruccus other than sit tight.

One of World's Smallest Turtles Visits the Backyard



A fascinating visit with a relatively young three-lined mud turtle, one of the smallest turtles in the world! It can live 50 years yet attain a length of only 4 to maybe 5 inches. Just an adorable tiny turtle they live behind the Florida Backyard and surprisingly spend most of their life out of standing water, but never far from moist ground with plenty of thick vegetative debris. A video of a much older adult three-lined turtle laying eggs in the Backyard, perhaps this turtles mother, is at: https://youtu.be/UkwsiObENe4 Filmed with Canon SX70HS on Amazon at: https://amzn.to/2QftDPd Commision Earned 🔴 New HD videos uploaded weekly.

Father Owl Feeds Live Snake to Owlet



A highlight from the successful 2021 owl nesting season. The eldest owlet Prima wolfs down a decent sized live snake delivered by Father owl. Its a "wet" or shiny and sort of worm-like looking snake so I'm guessing its a relatively large ringneck snake which are adept at hiding and usually only come out from under cover at night - ergo "owl food".
