Newest video in the series is out now! ukposts.info/have/v-deo/nmR0a56veHmA24E.html

@yukia.8188 Рік тому

I think the woodcock really wants you to give him all the attention 😆

@metalmamasue3680 Рік тому

Just wanted to give you a heads-up, if you're not already aware. I reported some scammer using your name trying to get folks to message them on Telegram saying they won something. I find them all over in comments under so many videos. I hope folks know better not to answer them. I can't stand people who prey on folks who might not know better. That said, it's funny how a screech owl sounds more like a loon to me 😂 It took me a long time and asking the right question to the right person before I learned what was making that weird noise I wasn't familiar with only having been a backyard bird nerd until i moved to where i am now. Now I live right near the woods and large open fields and I hear them fairly often. I'm enjoying your videos and I really have to put a bird bath out for the birds who come to my feeders. Maybe one with a fountain for the added attraction of the noise. I so enjoy seeing the birds. Well done, and very thoughtful to think of the animals who benefit from the larger pond and more native plant life. I think my favorite bird so far who I see is a male red bellied woodpecker who is very loud and showy, he's such a ham and very entertaining to watch from my windows while having my morning coffee. 😄

Great Auk are extirpated, Extinct.that was a joke right?

@ajax_jones Рік тому

That woodcock was such a treat. It's going to be really fun watching this pond as it progresses through the season and the years.

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

Thanks so much!

@Charrbonic Рік тому

If only we had known how much more we get to watch!

@organicgreenpeace6360 Рік тому

I'm so in love with your philosophies and how you made this all yourself, so much heart and effort. I love the little garden and the hummingbird feeder being so close, and the natural habitat restored for the birds is so thoughtful. You're already getting such amazing footage!

@LisaSaffell Рік тому

I’ve been waiting for this! Phenomenal video Stefano, can’t wait to see more. You have done an amazing job on your little pond and habitat.

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

Thanks for waiting 🙂so happy you enjoyed it

@billrobbins5874 Рік тому

Awesome array of birds. 👍👍

@elizabethdacosta5601 Рік тому

Before UKposts, where on earth did you document your AMAZING activities!! How wonderful! I didn’t have a childhood that included learning about wildlife. I’m old now, and I can’t tell you how much I have enjoyed watching your wildlife pond develop and learning about birds. It would never have happened without your UKposts videos! I was literally holding my breath when you were waiting so patiently for this last bird (the Woodcock) to appear. I just knew it would, and what a treat to finally see it and hear it! I’ll be back!

@imagesbirds5066 Рік тому

I really adore how much love and knowledge and appreciation you show for nature.

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

Thank you so much!!

@TheNeybor Рік тому

Your channel within a span of two episodes has almost immediately become the most exciting channel in my opinion. Definitely subscribed to follow along. Absolutely wonderful.

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

So glad you're enjoying it! Thank you!

This is allowing me to freely geek-out in both photography and biology -and not to mention have serious envy of your property as I live in a city.

18:06 Awwie the "peeek" is so anticlimatically funny 😂 the tension building up and broken by such a cute sound.

@IdeologieUK Рік тому

As my child has grown up, I’ve lost my fascination, love and connection to nature. I’m inspired by your videos to prepare my garden for spring. Much admiration from Kent, England. 👍

@samarthchad Рік тому

It is very interesting and beautiful to see your pond evolve, becoming a hotspot for all sorts of creatures! Greetings from India :)

so true

@clairelevasseur9434 Рік тому

I agree with you!!! From Québec, Canada

@clintrobinson1706 Рік тому

Thank you Stefano for doing what you can to create wildlife habitat. The native plants are the foundation of your ecosystem. Thank you for the lists and and detailed maps and explanations. This makes me (a viewer from New Jersey) feel like I am right there with you. The amount of work you are putting into this physically and technically is admirable and motivating.

@yashwantgehlot8853 Рік тому

Amazing video sir! Type of videos NatGeo, Discovery etc make with a team of so many people, you are doing it alone with your own resources. Hats off to your passion and skills.

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

Wow that means a lot, thank you!

@ericathefae Рік тому

I love how you narrate some of these clips - the intimidatingly macho hummingbird was particularly delightful

@TiffanyM3 7 місяців тому

You've created a true life cinematic nature series! It's such a relaxing watch, full of edutainment. 💚

@WarblerRidge Рік тому

Gosh, I don’t know where to start. I loved everything about this video! That Woodcock footage was so, so cool. Congratulations on that! All your bird footage is gorgeous. And your down to earth, informative, and funny narrative makes all of your videos fun to watch. And, of course, now I’m wanting a larger pond setup with a spiffy photo blind :-D. Congratulations on your success with all of this. Can’t wait to see what you do next.

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

Thank you so much for the kind words! Really happy to hear you enjoyed it all

This is WONDERFUL - thank you so much for posting. I built my own (very small) wildlife pond this Summer. I live in Hampshire UK and hear owls nearly every night from my bedroom. SUBSCRIBED!

Wonderful video. Have been watching your progress with anticipation. Amazing transformation of the pond area. I'm from Australia and a group of us go out every Thursday capturing images of our beautiful birds. Thanks for sharing. Cheers

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

Thanks a lot! And I hope your group has success on your next outing!

@chantaljacques7664 Рік тому

Great video Stefano. Awesome to see the swallow catching the feathers... so funny to see them struggling with bringing the featther inside the box. I have seen similar behaviour with house wren, trying to bring in little stick into the box, too long to come horizontally, it can take them a while to figure how to turn them sideways. Great coverage of the hummingbird display/behavious so cute! So cool you got the woodcok! I truly think you should have your tv show... you are so good and interesting with such a good sense of humour, I am sure a lot of people would watch! Looking forward to seeing your next video!

I like the new pond very much, and I love your enthusiasm. I love all those birdies, but one of my very favorites is the European Starling. I just LOVE that birdie since I have had two of them in a very large aviary and would even fly free in the house. Great video!

Just found you on UKposts, so glad I did. I love your videos. I'm as excited as you are when that special bird comes along. I cheered when the Woodcock appeared. Will be coming along with you on your adventures, can't wait. Hope your Christmas was great. Hello to your wife and the kitty.

@lesliestallard5187 Рік тому

Found your channel (!) and appreciate you creating a habitat for wildlife and sharing photos of visitors to the pond. If you're looking for plant suggestions, Winterberry or Ilex Verticillata is a wildlife friendly plant that produces beautiful red berries that are held during the winter; I love seeing this shrub laden with snow and berries. The shrub is dioecious, meaning that each plant is either male or female. The female is the only one that produces berries and a male plant must be nearby for pollination (one male plant for every 5-10 female plants); I have 'Winter Red' and 'Southern Gentleman' varieties. Attracts pollinators to the little white flowers in spring, and the berries are eaten by birds in late winter once they have been frozen; Cardinals love them.

@mnm25479 Рік тому

That woodcock is one funky lil bird~ Love the meep they do

@timewellspent2009 Рік тому

That was incredible! Besides the Woodcock video, the highlight for me was watching the Tree Swallows catching the feathers and trying to get them into the nest box. Can't wait for the next episode. Oh, glad you put up predator guards!

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

So glad you enjoyed it, thank you!!

@novampires223 Рік тому

I used to give my violet green swallows turkey feathers, long ones and I noticed that they had to bring the feather into the box quill tip first. If they had it wrong they would let it go midair and try to grab it by the proper end. Sometimes losing it to another swallow. 😊

@lorrainemorecraft1969 Рік тому

You made my day with your video! Thank you for sharing your excitement of finding the woodcock. I just finished expanding the beds in my backyard with FL native trees and plants and already have a Brown Thrasher who picks through the mulch and bathes in the bird bath under the wild coffee. A little spot for the wildlife to feed, shelter, nest, etc brings me joy.

@StefanoIaniro Рік тому

Thank you so much! Really happy to hear it made your day better. That sounds like a great setup you have. I’m sure it will provide great habitat for years to come
