  • Lets keep the geese safe and build them a cosy night house!
    How can you help us and our channel grow? visit the link below:
    www.buymeacoff...
    We have the loveliest supporters and followers of our TH-cam channel 'It's a Wonderful Life'.
    We remain committed to provide our content regularly, and of late, to increase the frequency of our vlogs. We have and continue to receive, many kind requests, to send gifts, or in some way help us financially with our channel.
    We have given this a great deal of thought. Whilst 'Patreon' and 'go fund me' are out of the question for us, we feel the 'buy me a coffee platform' (or for us, a cup of tea!) would be a great way to do this, especially in light of its ease of use and non ongoing commitment.
    Any contribution towards maintaining and hopefully enhancing our channel is very much appreciated, but never expected.

    Peter, this is looking great. The geese will be happy, and the fox will have to go elsewhere. It was so cute with Anna and a chicken on her back.❤

    Your ability to make something very useful out of left over bits and pieces is so enterprising. Yet another brilliant job Peter. It’s heart warming to see your animals so cared for and well looked after. X

    Peter and Miss Anna, I have been living vicariously through the two of you since near the beginning of your journey. I have spoken about how I had planned to move to Normandy upon my retirement from Policing, regrettably, my lovely wife chose to purchase in Fort Lauderdale. Hence my return to the Royal Canadian Navy. My purpose though for writing this is to ask Peter if he has contacts concerning vintage French motorcycles. I purchased one several years ago in Paris a 1954 Peugeot 125 55P, regrettably, the engine is not quite up to what I was told.
    Im hoping to be able to converse through email if that is possible.
    Again enjoy watching the honest videos you guys put out about your lives.

    You should look into getting a Karakachan: Livestock Guardian Dog. They bark less than most livestock dogs and you can train for what you need.

    HEY! You much beloved people Miss Anna and Peter. Just sending you lots of love and hope and good fortune. Is it silly to get emotionally attached to folk I am never going to meet? But anyhoooo, I love you lots n lots n jelly tots...because I have watched you for many years and now I think you are almost family ❤😂. I hope you are both fabulous as usual... but sending everything good your way...just in case.💜

    Your property is so beautiful. I laughed when you said " nothing to elaborate" for the goose house but you made it so wonderful. It will fit in perfect with your place and the geese will be super happy to have a nice safe place to rest.

    @DonnaDavisArt 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Your lucky you've only a fox to contend with, her in coastal New England we've fox as well as coyote, opposum, racoons, mink, fisher cats, as well as predatory seabirds and hawks. They all have a taste for chicken and quail and ducks too I imagine, lol. Sadly we always have to keep our poultry fenced in, with a run that has small opening hardware cloth (very sturdy metal much tighter than chicken wire) even on the top and bottom. As what doesn't dig in, will fly in. I once watch a mink slide between the door and bottom rail of my run, so even the openings you're lucky to have in your siding there, would never keep out mink here.
    It looks really lovely so far.

    I didn't have too much time to comment after the video the other day. The geese will be very happy with their safe home once you get it into place. I have always seen foxes where I live but never heard them until recently. This fox scream sounded like a woman in high distress! It was a bit unsettling as my dog and I were walking in the dark. Sun comes up late. See you next time.
