    Morten I love that there are other human beings who are nurturing natural spaces on private property, who are looking to enhance our relationship with other animals and our environment. Who want to watch what's going on. I love that you are so respectful of animals and don't want to disturb delicate spaces where they are, like the fox den. Oh my heart is so warmed by your connection and work. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

    Thank you Morten! I love this so much. Moved to a 5 acre bush property in Eastern Ontario 3 years ago and it's surrounded by hundreds of wild acres. We have fox, coyote, wild turkey, whitetail, raccoons, fishers and so many birds. Thank you for sharing & caring.

  • @ronvelner6530
    @ronvelner6530 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Morten, it is incredible how much common sense, knowledge, responsibility and discipline you have. Many forest managers can take an example from you, today it is often destruction by logging for biomass, and animals and soon people will also suffer as a result. It's another great pleasure to see you at work.

  • @teuti8210
    @teuti8210 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The world needs more people like you, Morten! Also the live cam is a brilliant idea. You are an inspiration in many ways! It must be a lot of hard work making these videos but they are much appreciated. It is amazing how you manage to take us along on your journeys. It feels like we are there! Thank you so much! Take care! Tina (Belgium)

    I love your live stream wildlife camera, I had been watching it for weeks before I realised it was your camera. It's a brilliant camera for people living in Australia because of the time zone differences, we get to see all the goings on with the animals at night and the morning birds.

    My great Morten,always treating nature with respect!This is something that i loved from the first time when i saw one of your videos.
    Now,everytime i'm taking walk in the forest, in my mind there are his words : " I don't want to disturb..." By doing this,i feel that i'm doing the right thing to do,and somehow i'm showing my gratitude for his efforts to keep the nature wild,as it should be in a natural way.
    Thank you for sharing your "little wild heaven" with us, Morten!
    I'm already waiting for that live streaming,so good luck with the technical side!👍

    Over the years I have allowed nature in my wife and my garden a free rain to some degree but in my case I am encouraging nature to provide a habitat to enable me to grow alpine plants. I love to travel with my wife Maggie and collect a few seeds to sow back at home as we travel to both northern and southern hemispheres as you cam imagine the habitats must be very diverse. So thumbs up to you I eagerly await the results of your projects!

    You have a beautiful farm, Morten. The natural landscapes are incredible. No wonder your desire is to film and photograph its beauty for others to see as well with the indigenous wildlife presence. Nevertheless, it's your dog I really adore. Such a cutie and so well-behaved. Plainly, the dog adores you, too, because the dog follows you so closely and gazes at you with such affection.

    @kahae9858 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This was a delight. It's a relief to encounter someone whose attitude towards nature mirrors my own. Like you I live on a block of land with patches of native forest which I leave untouched. I've been here nearly 20 years and the number and variety of birds and other wildlife present has increased exponentially. It is interesting to observe the conditions under which native and introduced species can find a balance - and the circumstances where imbalance results, at least over the short term. I love your livestream "by the stream". I check it every day. :)

    You are a good man, I wish more people were so caring of our planet. The wildlife in your area is lucky to have you.
    One thing though, please be careful of broken trees and branches, in Canada we call them "Widow makers". They can and do kill.
    Good luck, take good care of yourself and be safe!!!

    Adding habitat to any property will enhance the amount of wildlife we get, which in turn brings us closer to nature and will benefit our lives. Nice place Morten, I don't want to be jealous but you have a stream running through yours. Though I have a mountain behind me so I can't complain. I look forward to some good videos of the creatures you get as your property continues to change and invites more wildlife.
