Was wondering what part of the north you are in. Love watching your videos with all the birds and other wildlife you show. We don't see to many jays here in Saskatchewan but do see them Russ
@5:52 the grouse (I believe that's what was said) so hauntingly beautiful. I've never seen one! So grand! The entire video is grand. Well done, lesleythebirdnerd!
I always loved watching flocks of crows practicing flying in thermals before the winter. I am sure this is too help younglings but it looks like a school of fish or Top Gun jets practicing maneuvers.
Bravo....I thought I was watching Nature on PBS.......Lesley you are a real Professional, photography and narration excellent.....thanks for all you do and the enjoyment you give all year round. Merry Christmas and a great New Year
Aww that is so kind of you to say. Thank you :) and a very Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones and a wonderful new year too. Thanks for all your lovely comments and support.
@@LesleytheBirdNerd Aww, no worries! You have much to look after on your channel. 😊 I'm now just trying to recover from chemo, and now we can focus on the hip injury. So, things are finally moving along! Thank you so much. 💛
Lesley, thank you for this marvelous Christmas present! Beautifully done! Excellent photography, perfect music, poetic narration. Season’s Greetings to you, be well.
You are so very welcome. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I truly loved working on this one over the last few weeks. All the best to you over the lovely holiday season and especially in the new year. Thanks for all the lovely comments and support. Take care
Such a beautiful video one of the best ever! I'm curious, is that a black-footed ferret at the end of the video? So cute! Merry Christmas to you & all your woodland friends!
Lesley you ask the question every time at the end of your Videos hoping if I enjoyed myself watching it. And I always say out loud "OH YES I SURE DID!" Your Lovely voice, the gorgeous scenery, the Birds and the Critters and on top of it all the knowledge of each animal you see helps me experience with pleasure all that I want to learn. The older I get the more I love all that is around me and I'm noticing now the many animals in my small neck of the woods and it's all because of you. Your narration is beautiful it brings the life from outside into our lives.
What a beautiful birding documentary. The scenery is gorgeous and the birds you have around you are amazing. I am in Michigan and when I hear someone say out the way you do I can tell you must be from Canada. Northern Canada. Maybe I am wrong. I have watched you on and off for a while and now I am watching much more. Do you have any advice for me? I am moving in the spring/summer to my home in the thumb of Michigan’s lower penninsula. I am now in the Detroit area. We get birds in our yard, in the woods there at our other home where we are moving permanently but I would like to maximize this. I get the normal finches house, and gold finches, chickadees, rose breasted grosbeaks a rare cedar waxwing but it has been years, and we get Veery Thrush who sound amazing but are a rare site, and lots of wood peckers downy and red bellied, and eastern phoebes juncos etc. but I want the blue jays that I never see up there. We are right off Lake Huron and att our friends house they have purple Martins, Sand pipers and gulls. Can it draw blue jays to wooded areas? I will live in the woods?
I am hooked on your videos now. Your voice and narration with the beautiful videos are mesmerizing to my ears. It is like poetry in motion. Good Job Lesley. I have a bird sanctuary myself. I am in love with my birds and squirrels and creatures of all sorts. Been helping them for years now. I am 61 now, and still am enjoying all of this. Never want to stop. Love God's creatures. I will be doing this until the day I die.
The most beautiful narration of any of your videos I have watched so far. Thank you, Lesley. I pray you and your beloved husband are well and safe, keeping yourselves warm this winter. Come back to us, give us more beautiful and informative videos of these beautiful flying creatures beautify our world whenever you are ready. Thank you and take care.
Thank you Lesley. I love your videos even though they make me homesick. All those beautiful birds. And thatcweasel at the end was a great surprise. Wonderful photography. Thank you for all your Bird Nerd Vids. Seasons Greetings to you and yours.
Hi Leslie.. I feel like I'm right there with you as you so eloquently describe what you/we are seeing. Its obvious you love birds and God has blessed you with a kind and gentle heart and the precious fluttery birds sense that and trust you. What a joy. Happy birding.
Hi Lesley, This video was another "treasure" to savour. Stunning videography, artfully directed, and descriptive narration. Thank you for this lovely gift, just in time for Christmas. Blessings to you, 💕😚💕
Hi Lesley, I recently started watching your videos. They are very relaxing and educational. I appreciate the effort you put in to make them. Have a happy and healthy 2019. ☺️🐦
I always make sure our birds know where to find food, especially during the winter. There are lots of Black-Capped Chickadees, Dark Eyed Juncos, a few Cardinals, and occasional visits from Blue Jays and Mourning Doves. I make sure there are nyjer seeds, suet, and other bird seed available for them. I've also struggled with depression until two years ago, when I took up birding as my newest hobby. Birding really does help us cope with depressing or otherwise stressful situations. Merry Christmas to you and your bird friends!! Happy Birding!!
Birding really does help to alleviate anxiety and depression, it's incredible. :) I'm very happy to know it has helped you too Thanks for the nice comments and support. A very Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones. Take care
🎉🎄🎉A very Merry Christmas to you as well🎉🎄🎉 This video is beautifully done, thanks for the early Christmas gift! I am so glad I found your channel. Your informative narrative has awakened the Bird Nerd in me! 🐦 I now buy peanuts in bulk and have dozens of new Blue Jay friends lol! Thank you for sharing your passion ~ it is contagious 👍😆
Thank you so much! Your vids help me and my family through tough times, along with how cute your birds are, especially your jays! Have a happy holiday!
That was wonderful...absolutely stunning. Thank you for creating it. Night teaches us that there is light after darkess. Winter teaches us that there is warmth after cold. Hope springs eternal.
Finally; I've found the best fairytale for my child; Perfect, but hey it's not fantasied, wow it's our wonderful planet; this is what i want my child to see. Amazing work!
Well done, Lesley. I get to live vicariously thru you being in such close, literally close, proximity to wild birds. This was so well made....fromm the video - words you chose and facts you share with all of us. Thank you again. Merry Christmas
Nice video. Beautiful winter scenes but I'm glad you have the snow & not me. I don't do well in the cold. Fortunately being in central Texas we seldom see snow. On the other hand, we do play host for many of your migrants for the winter & try to keep the feeders full for the locals. I enjoy them while they are here & miss them when Spring moves them north. So, here's to the seasons & the changes each bring each in their time of the year.
Beautiful footage Lesley! you are very good at filming and story telling :) Thanks for sharing the video with us, And Merry Christmas! To you and your family!👍😎JP
Such beautiful scenery, absolutely gorgeous. And the blue jays nestled in a tree all floofed up, melting my heart, I am simply infatuated by those birds ^v^
I'm sitting here suffering through a dreary head cold, and your video is a beacon of sunshine and beauty that brightens my day. If it looks like I'm tearing up, that's just my clogged sinuses, honest. 😢 ❤️
Lesley - This is a beautiful, excellent video 👍 The sky and landscape are gorgeous! The snow looks very cold - poor birdies. Have a very Merry Christmas 🎁🎄🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁 - Stephanie
Beautiful. I have many of these birds at my feeders in the winter, along with downy and hairy woodpeckers. Also have a pair of red bellied woodpeckers that I enjoy watching.
I always make sure to have seed varieties and peanuts available for the birds. We have chickadees, cardinals, a woodpecker and of course blue jays. I am so glad they know they can find food here. I’ve been gifted some organic rye and pumpernickel bread by a neighbor and will be setting that out as well.
A lovely documentary. Winter might just be starting, but at least the days will be getting longer again. Fascinating bird at 5:50. Never heard of or seen these before. Thanks! Happy holidays!
I'd never heard of Sheila's Brush until today, and so had to look it up to find out what it meant. Thanks for the beautiful videos. Merry Christmas! JT
What a lovely video! So beautiful and calming, and the narrative is absolute poetry. Magnificent shots of all the birds and other wildlife as well! Thank you for this early Christmas gift.
Thankyou for the great little video, I'll have to keep an eye out to see some of those Pine grossbeaks here in Western Canada. my Cub scouts also enjoyed one of your videos about chickadees they were chickadeeing after watching the video all the way out the building on their way home.
The snow scenes are gorgeous! What a lovely sight, the Grosbeaks feeding on the apples in the tree. It was neat to see the Hare and the beautiful sun's halo. Wow! The Willow Ptarmigan is so well camouflaged and did resemble a ghost! It makes sense though. Lovely to see the Moose and baby. It was so much fun to watch the White Winged Crossbills eating the goodies from the cones. What was that storm, Sheila's ---? I like the adorable little Ferret(?). You have so very many gorgeous scenes in this video. The blue sky toward the end is a lovely sight!
Immaculate. One of your best productions Lesley. Starting with that Dec 21, the shortest day of year and then forgetting about longest night of year but to see so much imbedded hope, full feeling all the atmosphere... Coolest I've seen in a while & everything is so beautifully in harmony here. The scene, the feel, the photography, the videography, the narration, the voice... Mesmerizing and how can I say "Way to go" when you have achieved so much?!
Wow what beautiful footage. You are so talented and capture such amazing scenes. You should do a calendar of all your favorite birds for each month. I can't wait for my prints of the blue jays and Whitey the sparrow to get here. Thank you for another great video. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Lesley!
Leslie, I love your videos so much! I love my wild birds so much just like you and these videos make me smile and feel calm, they are really good for my high blood pressure, lol, but true. Thank-you so much for all your hard work, these videos are top notch and straight to the heart. I would love to buy some photos of Sweet Girl, Blue, Hormoso and the gang, can I do so and how? I am in Brights Grove Ontario but in the country and I am the only person who feeds the birds according to my neighbour so we get a huge amount of them. I go through 2kg a day of peanuts for my "blue friends" lol! They are so comical and I look forward every day to their arrival. Have a wonderful Christmas and thanks again! You are a beautiful person who cares!!
Oh Brava! You deserve an Emmy for this wonderful mini documentary! Living in Minnesota, your narrative could have reflected nearly my own thoughts and feeling, though not all that you see is what I'm lucky to witness! I do encourage you to pitch your wonderful (and perfect length) videos (like this one) to all the nature channels for viewing at the end of a program before another begins...I predict a more lengthy career could easily take off!! I LOVED THIS!
Just amazingly beautiful Lesley. Such a wonderfully created video to show the peaceful and calmness of winter. Thanks for sharing these wonderful gifts with us. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 🎄❄☃️
Thank you for painting a picture of what is to come - the impending snow and eventual thaw that you either embrace or abhor (I choose the former thankfully!) Had to look up Sheila's Brush being a mainlander and all. We have the same phenomenon here but we call it the St. Patty's Day storm- the last big hit of the season. Enjoy every bit of it! Take care!
To be honest I only said Shelia's brush because when I looked it up to be sure it was what popped up. What I have always said was Paddy's brush. I really should have said that after all, it's how I've always known it :O Nex time, next time, hahahBut wow can't it be quite a storm huh? Whoa. Take care Todd and thanks so much for all the comments and support. Merry Christmas to you.
LesleytheBirdNerd Ooohhhh yes quite a storm indeed! Fond memories of skiing and sledding when school was closed! I like the name Paddy's brush (sweeping the winter away) gotta remember that one. 😃 Merry Christmas Lesley!
Awesome video!! I love birding in Winter. You did a fantastic work to film all the winter birds and with all the production of this video. I like it vey much. Great job.
oh Lesley, this piece is so artful. i am saving it to a special file so i can find it when i need soothing. great writing, lovely reading, some of your very best camera work, and the ambient music sets the whole thing off like art song. you are the best. bless you my dear.
Where have I been that I didn't see such quality video pictures of north american birds?? Thanks lady....I love to feed in Northern Michigan and most of the birds you are featuring I have coming to my feeders on the shores of Lake Michigan. Keep up the good work. >>>>> PLEASE note that I have found a good way to prevent bird smacks on the bay window the feeders are located 10 feet from....I have found that ordering a fruit tree net long enough to drape over the 5 window array hung by christmas light hooks, works very well without a major visibility issue looking out...in fact we don't even notice it anymore. Before we had at least one bird smack per week which the hawks learned was a great way to feed. NO MORE...the net works perfectly and even though there is only an inch or two between the net and window, the birds are able to see the net and avoid the window when flared or flying off. Hope this helps your readers with similar problems.

I really should have said that after all, it's how I've always known it :O Nex time, next time, hahahBut wow can't it be quite a storm huh? Whoa. Take care Todd and thanks so much for all the comments and support. Merry Christmas to you.
LesleytheBirdNerd Ooohhhh yes quite a storm indeed! Fond memories of skiing and sledding when school was closed! I like the name Paddy's brush (sweeping the winter away) gotta remember that one. 😃 Merry Christmas Lesley!

Where have I been that I didn't see such quality video pictures of north american birds?? Thanks lady....I love to feed in Northern Michigan and most of the birds you are featuring I have coming to my feeders on the shores of Lake Michigan. Keep up the good work. >>>>> PLEASE note that I have found a good way to prevent bird smacks on the bay window the feeders are located 10 feet from....I have found that ordering a fruit tree net long enough to drape over the 5 window array hung by christmas light hooks, works very well without a major visibility issue looking out...in fact we don't even notice it anymore. Before we had at least one bird smack per week which the hawks learned was a great way to feed. NO MORE...the net works perfectly and even though there is only an inch or two between the net and window, the birds are able to see the net and avoid the window when flared or flying off. Hope this helps your readers with similar problems.
Happy Christmas to you, Lesley. be safe and warm and may love surround and hold you all year long.
Love your channel! 🕊 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 🐿
