- So far this season is shaping up to be much kinder than the horror that was the 2019/2020 summer. There is strong growth of shrubs and grasses, the wallabies are robust and healthy and this summer they are all carrying joeys. Ticks are just starting to appear on ears and necks, but they are still the intermediate nymph stage, not yet the adult ticks which garnered so much interest from the corvids last summer.
First.... Anyone else hoping for tick eating by the ravens
Hello Wayne, sorry to disappoint - the ticks are still in the nymph stage. With mercifully cooler weather and more rain, this season will be later than last year.

Thanks for the reply, as painful as it looks on the poor wallabies there's just something about it and how the ravens just know to pick them
@Buddha Belly that would be a shame.
Good to know I'm not the only strange-mo out there. LOL
Not me. Those ticks were nasty. Makes my skin crawl when I see animals covered in ticks.
Oh my gosh, a baby! So lovely. And the little wallaby mom looks free of those God awful giant ticks. The Cockatoo is gorgeous. All the critters chilling at the watering spot. This was fun to watch. Thank you.
Hello Trena, it is a relief to see life looking more normal after last year. Thank you for watching and taking the time to share your thoughts.
@@GubanaNatureRefuge they look so much healthier. So awesome to see :)
Cockatoos in the wild, not in cages. ❤️
Hi Judy, I know right? I've never understood why people like to keep caged birds.
PLEASE continue posting these videos
Hello Giselle, thank you for your words of encouragement - they are very much appreciated :)
It's good that tick problem is now less. Animals and birds enjoying water sipping is best to watch.
I should be happy that there are no ticks but I feel crushed instead. I must be a bad person. I need to work on myself. This channel has exposed flaws in my character.
Haha..
Haha,yeah the tick stuff is a crowd pleaser.
The greedy Commenters here are acting like the bloodthirsty ticks...demanding more Tick Videos only haha
I am just grateful to see the wildlife happy and healthy!!
Hello M.O.B, TH-cam commenters seem to be divided into those who are outraged that we haven't exterminated ticks from the universe, and those who are outraged that we would dare to upload a tick-free video. It is an interesting window into humanity, best viewed in small doses! Thank you for watching and for taking the time to share your thoughts.
@@GubanaNatureRefuge keep doing what you love!
@@stateofmissouri5651 Hello BM, thank you for your kind words of encouragement - it is appreciated! The purpose of the channel was only ever meant to be a way of sharing wildlife clips with friends and family. A small number of other people (perhaps a few hundred) from around the world also seem to like watching and engaging in a discussion about the wildlife, and we enjoy sharing what we see around us. Of course the vast majority of the subs to the channel are from the tick videos; the tick videos are an unexpected anomaly and a double edged sword - they aren't what this channel is about, but their popularity in recommended feeds has brought people to the channel, and a small number have then stayed for the actual wildlife, which is a good outcome :) I hope you are having a marvellous week and staying safe.
@@GubanaNatureRefuge I WANT MORE TICK VIDZ
@@terry007ny Hello Terry, I WANT A PONY. Actually on second thoughts, I don't ... they poop everywhere. It's really not looking like there will be a tick video this season. It's now late in the adult tick season, and the few wallabies visiting the water are fat, shiny and tick-free. This is GREAT news; for the wallabies, not the channel, obviously. The question now is, are the corvids responsible for the great tick population collapse of 2021?
That baby!!! SOOOOOOO sweet!
Hello Raquel, thank you for watching and for taking the time to share your thoughts.
This is a strange feeling !!! On the one hand I miss ticks and crows, on the other I am happy to see the wallavis free of ticks; and I am saddened by what happened in Australia with the fires; in short, we must let the nature continue its course and recover as usual do.
A beautiful joy to see so cute thankyou for sharing
Hello Yvonne, thank you for visiting and taking the time to share an encouraging comment. Have a marvellous day :)
The baby was so cute in mum's pouch, a good selection of our amazing animals. You are doing an incredible job, thank you.
Hello Deborah, thank you for your support and encouragement. I hope you are having a marvellous week.
After reading some of the comments I am happy to find out I’m not the only freak in this world that enjoys watching birds eat the ticks
Thank you for providing water for these animals.
Hello Lauren, thank you for watching and for your kind words of encouragement.
Loved this. Also enjoy watching the tick eating ravens, because I'm a weirdo. LOL
Though it is green, the landscape still looks so sparse. It was delightful to see the wildlife and the joey. As much as I enjoy tick revenge porn, this was very refreshing to watch. Perhaps it could be it's own asmr niche?
Hello CS, it is a huge relief to be getting early signs of a 'normal' summer with summer rainfall this year. As you've noticed, the tree canopy is still very sparse and will take years to recover. The ticks aren't gone, they are just late - cooler weather and more rain has delayed the transition from small nymph to adult ticks. Very few wallabies are seeking the services of our water, which is a good sign that they are dispersed and nomadic as they should be :)
Thank you for responding. I am glad it looks to be better weather for you this year. I still think there is a niche for the sounds of your area. All the best!
The tick removal is so satisfying. I, too have watched it several times.
I'm glad to see that you are still able to provide water to the animals after all the chaos Australia suffered through last. Prayers that weather is kinder to Australia ❤️
At least the country is green & the wild life look in better shape . Looks like it’s going to be a wet summer & there will be a bounce back.
Glad to have these videos on again!
Nice to see a joey this year.
Yes I too have watched the infamous tick videos. Gruesome but addictive. However much better to see the range of wildlife that comes to this waterhole
No ticks, thank goodness 😅
Mission accomplished for the crows: No ticks!
Is it still a Joey if it's a wallaby baby? Either way, it was so cute when it poked its head in and out❤️
Hello Sophie, thank you for your question. Most marsupial young are called joeys, including baby kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, wombats and possums.
there's joey inside so cute
Very nice encounters of animals that came to drink and how nice that everything is slowly starting to grow again. its very sad to watching this giant ticks. They are not good for them. And how cute was the little one in the pouch. Thank you for sharing this moments.
Hello Tina, lovely to hear from you. I hope you are keeping safe and well.
@@GubanaNatureRefuge Yes i am safe but the covid-19 is very bad in my area and country. So i do not want not in the crowd and i goes a lot now in nature because there we can hold distance. Nature gives me strength and consolation. Hope you are also well and safe. I will give you my video and hope you like this also.

Best regards, Tine- NL
Woooooow wallabies drink alot a water! Are they really that thirsty??
Amazing to see so many different animals. Thank you for providing the names and species of each animal.
Hello Anna, thank you for watching and taking the time to share your thoughts.
You're kangaroos Are so much Cuter Without Ticks
You know Tony, I think a lot of TH-cam quietly disagrees ... there seems to be so much disappointment at the lovely healthy state of the wallabies at the moment ;)
God bless you because you give them water.
That echidna climbing up for some water was so cute! Determined little guy
1. No ticks to entertain us.
2. There is def a relationship between drought/wild fires and tick infestation
3. Animals do show some sort of gestalt learning as in case of crows and ticks.
4. Thanks for helping these animals and putting vids on youtube. God bless.
Thank you.
That fractional moment where you forgot that wallabies are marsupials ;D IT'S A CHEST(stomach)BURSTER!
The baby wallaby was adorable
Hello AH, I absolutely love your avatar. Gorgeous.
I like all these videos, more please!
It looks like this water tank is helping a wide variety of animals! 👍🏼
That mama kangaroo is really thirsty
any more crows removing ticks videos coming?
Doc Crow was not working that day.
that was one thirsty wallaby mum!
Wtf i have watched those tick clips like 20 times now over and over again. I really like that big fat juicy one in the start. Do i need help or something?
Lol
Looking healthy with her cute baby 👍
Nice to see the change in landscape over time.
The Joey!!! 😍⭐️
Omg the echidna! 💕💕💕
Hello Diane, thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
Where are the Crows eating ticks?
Great to watch. Thank you for all you do to help our wildlife.
Hello Kim, thank you for your kind words of encouragement, it is appreciated. I hope you are having a marvellous week.
i wnet to bed watching this and woke up and its still on i got em on loop and they always seem like new videos i can watch them sneaky crows reminds me of a few people i know
TICKS TICKS TICKS
Yep
From Canada, vert interestings videos...Love to see the ticks being eaten!
Ticks, where are the ticks. Now when a crapy movie or vid comes on, I comment, I’d rather watch Oxpeckers (Ravens) rip ticks off a hairy infested boil on a rotting ( Roo's) Hippo's arse. How very Aussie of me eh!
I'm really glad you guys put hoods and sticks in the water. A saw one struggling in the night in holding on. But wow alot animals come here man. Really glad you guys provided water. If it was possible to put another container there for more water to be available....just saying....as the small birds merely drink lol but take baths lol
There’s a bit more green. Is that typical of the time of year or has there been more rain?
Had our winter and spring,which usually means reasonable rainfall,depending where you are in the country. Give it another month or two and it will be parched and dry and full of ticks again,for eveyones viewing pleasure.
Hello Andy, we generally have summer rainfall here, so we should be moving into rainfall soon. We have had a much kinder winter than last year, with well timed falls keeping the understorey going. The tree canopy is still sparse, and we have lost more mature trees during September - we desperately need a wet summer to recharge the water table. There has been a really promising germination of new eucalypt seedlings - if we could get a few years of 'normal' seasons, a new generation of forest would grow, but I fear the 'new normal' will instead see this area transition to arid grasslands quite rapidly in the coming years.
Tolle Aufnahmen
I could watch all day!
Hello Nathan, thank you for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment. I hope you are having a marvellous week.
No ticks...bummer
Hello Bdizzy81, the wallabies do not share your enthusiasm for ticks, but never fear - today was revoltingly hot, which means the adult ticks will start hatching very soon.
*WHERE'S THE TICK SAUCE??!*
LMAOO
Barriu ai
it’s like a community bath!
Great observation
Good to see you’ve had some rain up there,looking a lot greener.
Hello Chris, we haven't had the intense rain that some parts of NSW have had, but we've definitely had enough to create hope of a recovery summer. We've lost a lot of the mature trees, but enough have survived to comfortably support the reduced population of koalas that survived the apocalypse, and there has been a really promising germination of new eucalypt seedlings. Introduced house mice are everywhere, threatening a summer plague, so I hope the raptors are gearing up to have a big breeding year! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment.
Where are the tick remover crows???
Beautiful 💕
Hello Angie, thank you for watching. I hope you are having a marvellous week.
How do the water bins get filled ?
Crow eat thick please
Cool and what a sweet baby
where is the raven
No ticks but that’s good, especially with the little one 🦘 thanks for always putting water.
Hello Mike, yes it is great to see the wallabies benefitting from a good season after all the despair of last season. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
You’re welcome I subscribed too btw
Oh wie süß ein kleines ist im beutel, super niedlich
She looks great! That’s a handsome Joey too!
Hello TR13, it is a huge relief for the wildlife to be experiencing a time of plenty at the moment, and to be getting a bit of a reprieve from fire, hunger, thirst and ticks! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
What's predator who eat wallaby??
Hello JJ, foxes (an introduced pest), feral dogs (an introduced pest) and dingos (a native predator). Landowners also illegally shoot wallabies.
Why do the wallabies release toxins when stressed?
It is part of the fight or flight mechanism.
Hello Michael, capture myopathy actually quite common with wildlife, especially prey animals such as zebra, deer, giraffe, antelope, hartebeest, springbok, deer, and marsupials. it is most commonly associated with pursuit, capture, restraint, and transport of animals and is a major hindrance to wildlife conservation efforts all over the world. pdfs.semanticscholar.org/9615/d7e2c7fd5d548cafb0e5bc79c9ed4bd60382.pdf
I can't believe there are people commenting and not mentioning ticks. What's wrong with you?
