The sound of 8 gray Squirrels making alarm sounds at once while I sit with them. There are some theories about these unusual squirrel group alarm calls or "chorus" sounds, but more research is needed. And yes, people do have real jobs studying all manner of squirrel vocalizations around the globe. The typical gray squirrel alarm call meaning from a few years back can be found at: https://youtu.be/FVRJsCsqFB0 .

Mother Raccoon is raising four kits under my Backyard studio – raccoon babies are called kits or sometimes cubs. They are big enough now to forage with mom at night and the kits are exploring their new world and showing up regularly on the camera in the jungle behind the yard. Raccoons are intelligent, curious creatures and their unique front paws are super sensitive and dexterous for probing water for food. I knew if I put something in the water basin like a few goofballs they would be irresistible to the kits on their nocturnal rounds with mom and they would have some fun with them. They of course did not disappoint.

A simple basin is a magnet for bathing birds and thirsty wildlife. Note the size difference between the big bobcats in the early clips to the feral domestic cat at the end. These big cats have an infinite number of small rats, voles and mice and even the occasional rabbit as prey for food and they seldom bother the birds.

The mythical Snipe of the childhood "snipe hunt" challenge is actually a real bird. This fascinating bird is a winter visitor to Florida and makes a haunting winnowing sound with its tail feathers while flying in a downward swooping motion to defend territory and attract a mate on summer breeding grounds far to the north.

While taking pictures of birds on fences and a pasture in the Florida prairie I am unexpectedly set upon by a charging cattle guard donkey - don't know what would have happened without that fence between us, but I'm thankful. I now know guard donkeys are a thing and quite effective at protecting their territory and cattle.

Rabbits Rule! Squirrels and rabbits get along pretty well in the Backyard, but in every new generation of squirrels one decides to get in a rabbit's face and the results may surprise you. Now that I have both Cottontail and Marsh Rabbits regularly visiting the Florida Backyard I continue to see squirrels occasionally pushing their buttons and going a bit too far with horseplay. Rabbits have amazing powers that not everyone or every squirrel is familiar with. Here is a video of a rabbit in North Carolina standing up to a 400 pound female elk - https://youtu.be/x-O7bXYrJ3E

Try at maximum volume for full effect , but not with headphones - could damage your ears. Now I know what its like to be on the receiving end of intimidation by a murder of American crows. When they all join in the volume of the crows alarm or harassment calls is unbearable so you can imagine how effective they are on repelling raptors and other threats! The backstory - I headed out on the Florida Prairie before dawn and decided to check out this remote Oak Hammock which is like a small island of dense forest within a grass prairie or wetland and I apparently surprised families of crows roosting in the Oak trees and they harassed me mercilessly then I got the idea to play back their own voices....They didn't like that!

Backyard Gray Squirrels engage in the timeless art of seduction. What happens in the oak tree stays in the oak tree except, of course, for the video. To compare to young squirrels just playing and wrestling, which is quite common and entertaining, check out: https://youtu.be/4sPBF6kXI8Y and

Mini-Documentary. The Ovenbird looks so much like a thrush that John James Audubon called it the “Golden Crowned Thrush” in Birds of America. This is the second time I've captured this bird foraging on the forest floor in classic fashion – the ovenbird walks in an exaggerated fashion as it looks for bugs to eat - it doesn't hop like most songbirds. I think the Ovenbirds are living and breeding in the dense forest/jungle behind the Florida backyard although range maps indicate it isn't supposed to breed here they showed up throughout the summer on the trail cameras walking and foraging. I'll pay closer attention next year. They are fascinating birds and while some call them plain I think they are quite stunning and unique warblers.

Halesia Carolina, or Carolina Silverbell also called the Mountain Silverbell, opossum wood, Silver Bell and Snowbell tree is a native North Carolina flowering tree that is found in the Great Smoky Mountains.
It is stunning in spring bloom where falling petals look like snow covering the ground and it has succulent green fruit that squirrels will sometimes eat, but it is the ripe 4-sided brown seed pod in fall that the squirrels love and although it hasn't been documented on video much before this example
the squirrels clearly love this autumn delicacy and can be seen feasting on it, but also leaving some on the tree for later in colder weather.

Select 4K resolution in player for best viewing. American Goldfinches don't spend much time at the mountain spring, but always exciting when they do. Watch closely and you'll see a Tennessee Warbler which looks much like a goldfinch at a distance move in right next to the finch and see its surprised look - time to move on an let the warblers have the spring.

Did you know little possums or opossums are called "Joeys" just like Kangaroos? This little guy is just out on his own in the world now and has worked up quite a thirst. Possums are one of the most underrated Backyard creatures.
