David Beautifully done! I recommend doing another one earlier in the morning when the lighting is great

Greetings from Glenview, Illinois. Flying to Vegas this week. After a few days, gonna drive to Tonopah and then take this route west towards San Fran. Thanks for the great glimpse of what I can expect.

Beautiful and relaxing

Hey!!! I live in arnold!

Thank you Wendy!

In 1982, my boyfriend and I took this ride in his '65 Mustang convertible, and even as teens, we were stunned at the beauty all around us! Just gorgeous, thank you!

Oh my. America the beautiful. Stunning video and the music was just fabulous. Greetings from Scotland.

Thank you!

A truly beautiful & colorful video, outstanding work!

use to be able to get to an old open put gold mine off that road,still gad the buildings and old news papers from the 60s

Beautiful, thank you

Thanks! I have only seen them there and other ponds around Arnold in the Winter. But I have been told they do come into White Pines once in a while in the summer.

My Wife and I saw three near the shore opposite the Public Beach about noon 12/31/2018

A pleasure.

Thanks for the great video

What a beautiful film. Your photo's are terrific I'm familiar enough with Highway 4 that your film is a drive down memory lane. Thanks

Love the video... Wondered if you'd like to join our Flicker group on Facebook and share it with the group.. We are having a lot of fun sharing videos, pictures, stories about this beautiful bird species.. The group called Northern Flicker Awareness... Hope to see you there

Very cute and beautiful video

Great video thank you!

They do seem like friendly birds. Thanks for the comment, I do not do videos often. Where are you located? Dave

Very well done. I believe a female as the male will have some red on the back of his head even before flying. We have two now just starting to fly around the house. Still not able to feed themselves in the wild. We hand feed grub worms, dog food and poached egg, blueberry and give water with a syringe. I think we can release into our big oak trees in a week or so and hope they make out without their Mom to help. Their tree was cut down and the cutters brought them to us.

I agree. Looks like a young, little female.

I'm not really an expert either but I'd say this is definitely a juvenile. It's still got its downy baby feathers and its colouration hasn't really fully come in yet. I think it's also a female because I'm pretty sure the juvenile males get their red cheeks really young.

good video

cool i live there do you?

I am a snowbird in Tucson, CBT docent, and saw four of these guys two years ago Labor Day as we were doing water quality monitoring. I live on Meadowview Ct. and I am so glad I am here in Tucson now, but really enjoyed your video and your glimpses of our summer home. Your music delightful by the way. THANK YOU! Mary E. Hallesy

what a wonderful little creature! I had one come to where I live as well and hang out...I like watching this vid whenever I need to just relax and get in the mood for a walk in the woods behind my place.

I think it is a young bird... I am not a professional.. but it seems to be lacking feathers.. and some are still short. Plus it is sitting low.. and see the downy like feathers.

Very, very cute. Just this weekend (MLK) they (or a different family) were at Lakemont Pines Lake having a feast! ( Are those two lakes connected?)

Excellent! Beautiful lighting, steady camera work, perfect sound track! Thank you! Larry

WOO HOO the otters are back!! The kids and I are going to run by White Pines tomorrow and see if we can catch a glimpse!! The video is FANTASTIC... thanks for sharing, Dave!
