I remember when you first got Leon, everyone and their sister was telling you how to raise Leon and that you were maintaining his tank incorrectly -- seeing your son set up his jellyfish lab makes me realize how much experience you've had with aquatics, probably way more than anyone commenting at the time lol. You didn't race to prove anyone wrong, or prove your knowledge, you're just a humble dude.
It’s always the few Reddit, Facebook and some fish keeping or related topic forum people who act as if it’s their way or the high way. And very often times the same people do not even own the species that they’re critiquing on said husbandry. There’s a lot that can be said about how some hobbyists gatekeep aquatics fo no reason. A lot of it is not rocket science.
Why didn’t he let Leon go into the ocean to live free again after he had recuperated him? When I really think about it… I don’t think any animals are truly happy being encapsulated in a cage.
Did you know you can also "call the birds in" to feed? Every time i put birdseed in my feeders, i tap the empty cup on the side of the feeder in a rat-a-tat pattern that's the same each time. The birds will come flying to the tree from all over the place, the minute they hear me tapping out that rhythm. My neighbors get a kick of me calling in the birds to eat each morning. LOL!~
There used to be a cardinal who would tap on the glass of my bedroom window if I slept in, and was late with the sunflower seeds. He was definitely calling me and wasn't fighting with his reflection. He'd fly down to the sill, peck a few times, then hop back to a nearby branch to wait. Repeating until I opened the window and gave him his tablespoon of seeds.
My father would make a whooooop whooooop kind of yell. Not only did the birds come swooping in but deer, rabbits, squirrels and more would join in. They would come running from all sides out of the mountains. It was something out of a doctor Doolittle movie.

Cats can have litters of kittens with all different dads, in the same litter, if she mated with more than one male during her heat. I had a litter of 4 kittens, 1 solid black, 1 white siamese, 1 grey tiger, and 1 tail-less manx. ALL IN THE SAME LITTER. And yes, we had all of those same types of males in the neighborhood. Whew! That poor cat got tapped by every male in the neighborhood! LOL!~
I have a feral cat. We got her very young and she still eats like that 8 years later. She is completely tamed and sleeps on out laps. We never thought it was possible
Leon is the luckiest captured (and probably free roaming) lobster. His great health is proof of how well he's being cared for. Thanks for the exploration video, Brady. It was really neat to see.
When you said you check the water in the buckets for creatures after cleaning the aquarium- yes, I feel the pain. I don't have an aquarium, only a pond, but it's so amazing how many creatures are in there. Usually a pond is not much work. But whenever I do just a little cleanup and reduce the overgrowth of plants, I have to sit for hours to pick all the newts, newt larvae, firefly larvae, water bugs, water snails etc that I don't want to end up on the compost. So much effort, but I wouldn't want this on my conscience. 😕 After all, this is why we want these little biomes, to watch the living creatures thrive.
When I worked at a plant nursery that sold water plants, I spent my lunch time transferring the little creatures before end of the season. The sales table would be dumped but a permanent pond was nearby.
I have a home and property full of animals...there is no joy that compares to seeing your animals happy! lounging or active, it's the best feeling in the world.
Yes! I agree....its the best❤ Giving my little dog a bubble bath on Friday night after a looooong week at work. Petting my stray cat every morning while I open my blinds. Listening to my rescue parrot cough and swear like her previous owner. 🤭 Caring for my crippled Parakeets. Saving baby birds from a hot parking lot. Saving a gecko in my office while my office mate screams. Bottle feeding a baby squirrel, lamb, pig, cow! Love watching Leon❤ Life is good!❤
I gotta get some land so I can have chickens n goats n pigs n loads of small nature beings roaming in n out ... fir now I'll just get some fish ,!! Got two canaries singing their heads off n free flying around their part of the house .. ❤
Birds will definitely sound the "dinner bell" if it's a regular feeding spot and food is being put out lol. You'd think they'd keep quiet so there would be more food for them, but I think they just get so excited and happy that they can't help but to start singing and calling. You'd also be surprised about the the networking some types of birds have with small groups of each other, even to where they'll take turns being the one bird who sticks around to watch for feeding time at a particular site in order to then be able to alert all the others who are off looking for food elsewhere in the interim.
12:58-13:05. I've a disability that effects my ability to use my legs and what you said warms my heart. Brady, I've always enjoyed your Sir David Attenborough-esque voiceover.
I know you really appreciate hearing how this series has impacted people's lives. So I felt that I would explain how leon and this series has helped me stay connected with my partner despite us living on different continents. Both me and my partner have been struggling with loneliness for most our lives, but through chance found each other regardless. My partner then later introduced me to Leon th lobster, and we have connected even more over our shared love for the lovely creature, even with this video we sat in front of our respective screens together and watched it. Without this series I think the distance would have felt so much bigger, but luckily we didn't end up having to know that. Many other stressful things have happened, I found out I have a cyst in my brain, and the prospect of potentially needing surgery to fix it made us decide to finally find a date for when we could meet in person. I know both me and my partner have permanent conditions that limit our lives in fairly noticeable ways, and for me at least. To see Jett who's missing one of his legs still be loved despite that disability be perhaps even more loved because of this limit as well as him living his best life, it gives me a lot of hope and motivation to keep going despite all the obstacles. But also just Leon himself, to see him go from the scared little thing to so clearly being happy and thriving. It's been a genuinely special experience, even from behind a computer screen. So just to summarise, these videos have helped us so incredibly much in finding hope and love. And I just wanted you to know that
As someone who has TNR-ed for over 20 years, I can say, most feral adult cats CAN be tamed. Keep them separated from the other cats, isolated, and use a bath brush to touch them when you get to that point. Eventually, you should be able to substitute a hand. Some of the best cats I've had were ex-ferals. More loving and loyal than cats you raise from kittens, though they do retain some skittish reactions. Thank you for caring for the animals. A pleasure to watch.
Naming the feral mama cat Freya is actually so fitting! In Norse mythology, Freya's chariot is pulled by two cats rather than horses. I think it's a great name. As for the hermit crab and its arrangement of shells, I feel as though some creatures (including them) know when their time is coming and will do what makes them most comfortable as it draws near. It may have moved back into the old shell because it was more comfortable to it, like an old shoe that fits better than the new one, despite being worn out. The extra shell is a bit of a question mark though- it may have been that the whelk shell had a crack or weak point that it was trying to cover. Or maybe the sea urchin habit of 'wearing' shells is starting to catch on! Awesome video as always.
The tiny shrimp trying to gather a big shrimp for food was very weirdly funny. Edit to add: The mama cat seems to be some sort of grey tortoiseshell, so it's likely that all three of the kitties came from her and the same dad. But it's also totally a possibility that they have different dads!
You're such a wonderful soul, Brady. Jett, Sydney and Bunny are just stunning! They are thriving all because of your kind compassionate huge heart. And Leon, of course is beautiful as always...the King! We all love him 🥰🦞💜
Totally agree with your sentiment on Brady's Soul and heart @KatieHellOnHeels. He is wonderfully connected to nature and critters. A pure restful delight @Bradybrandwood huge thanks.
I don't know, I find it kinda of beautiful in a way. Yeah you can never go back in time but the fleeting nature makes that memory all the more special and seeing nature come back as well as the tagging reminds me that we're all part of something much larger than ourselves and that life continues to thrive even when we're gone. Nothing on earth lasts forever, but none of your deeds are in vain.
The most unsettling parts are that the company was not required to clean up all of the crap on the property and were allowed to just abandon the mess which left non-biodegradable trash everywhere. We need to start holding people and companies accountable and treating our earth better. The second unsettling part is that our society has become so rotten that vandals feel no compunction about creating hateful trash, simply because they’ve never been held accountable for bad behavior or actions. This is not kids will be kids, this is willful destruction, simply because there is no values or morality taught. Again, America needs to do better.
@@hamishfox - I agree that this is nicely said but I'm more like the first commenter. I found it unsettling to be reminded how far away my carefree teenage years of swimming with friends had become, making those 1980s memories feel a little haunting.
so i got to the bird part just now- and fun fact tufted titmouse (the grey one thats small with a white belly and some brown on the leg area and black beak) they actually will scout areas for food and they tell other birds when theres food somewhere. so theres a chance they let all the other birds know!
Brady, this is another masterpiece. The gentle mood you create with your voice and the music, seeing Leon and his neighbors (R.I.P. hermit crab), the few moments of your son’s jellyfish, and your geocaching and abandoned-swimpark adventures are so interesting, informative, beautiful, and relaxing! I’ve been following since you first brought Leon home from the supermarket, and i wish you were able to rescue all the other supermarket lobsters. Thanks to you, I won’t eat anything that contains any bit of a lobster!
Yes, it is very possible to tame a feral cat. You just have to have her vet checked for diseases after you capture her, isolate her in a small room, like a bathroom with food, water a bed and toys. Everyone will get used to each other’s scent, and then you can start to give her more room to roam. If you just give her space, she will eventually begin to trust you. She may not trust you completely, but she should start to warm up to you. We have had several feral cats come into our house and some never completely trust us, but will come and sit beside us. We just have to give them their space, and let them evolve on their own. We accept them for who they are.
I’ve had a feral get friendly enough to sit in my lap and allow me to stroke him, but he did NOT allow picking up. He and I shared a home for eight years.
Great advice! I’ve rescued feral grown cats & they made wonderful companions. Just takes time, like what you described. Once trust kicks in, you’re putty in their paws!!
@@MEKCreationsyep I had one that would barely eat on my porch with me clear on the other side until months later she ended up in my lap purring. Then I was on my way home one day and saw her in the road after a car hit her. I was devastated 😢 But yes it’s definitely possible, you just have to let them come around on their time.
My feral mom evolved as all of yours did. I was crossing her line anytime I tried to pet her with both hands. She loved petting with one hand. I guess 2 hands meant capture to her.
I was on my way out the door to go to the bank when the latest Leon video showed up on my feed. Standing at the bar in my kitchen with my raincoat on captivated as always by Leon & friends & the wonderful life you all share together. Mesmerized by the soothing sound of your voice, I get a 25 minute break from the crippling anxiety I've been struggling with for almost 2 years now. I really appreciate you for sharing your world with us. It seems like just when I need it the most, one of your videos shows up on my feed & I'm grateful for that. Love y'all so much! ❤❤❤❤❤
17:00 Your shrimp has eggs, they may by now have already hatched into their plankton stage and either eaten or filtered before settling onto the substrate. I don't know how long this takes bit they go through several molts. I kept a 75-gallon marine tank similar to yours, I used a Magnum cannister filter mainly for aeration and some filtration, I never vacuumed the coral gravel because my reasoning was, it wasn't done in a natural marine environment, I had great water quality and no troublesome algae, I only added fresh water treated to remove any chemicals from our city water source. I had a large mat of grape caulerpa (Caulerpa lentillifera) and daylight lights. My only resident was a 18" snowflake moray eel that would eat shrimp from your fingers. I had a 10-gallon marine tank I used water from Dyes Inlet, this one was unheated, I only added treated fresh water and it had polyps from likely from the genus Metridium, plankton and other tiny life. I miss having a marine tank, but I don't have the space.
One of my cats, Bunny, is almost blind, too. She's having a hard time adjusting since I added 2 kittens to the home. I think it was their zooming past that weirded her out. Now they've learned to walk past her carefull not to disturb her. Despite her failing sight she's a pretty good aim with that paw.
I love all the Leon updates! It’s the first thing I watched when I got home from work today, and my four cats watched with me! Thank you for feeding the birds. And yes, birds DO communicate with each other when a food source is found! Chickadees, Titmice, Nuthatches, Cardinals etc.. all have different calls to say “Hey everybody, there’s food over here!”. 🙂
Every time i get a Leon notification i stop everything to settle in and watch...you never disappoint Mr. Brady Brandwood! Still really enjoying the exploration videos around your area. Such a different eco system from where i live in Colorado where if something disturbs a natural area it can take decades to recover if ever. What beautiful country you have there! I also love seeing how all the cats are doing especially now since both of my fur babies recently crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge due to old age. My female looked a lot like your black female with the pretty ruff...in fact almost identical except my Sweetpea was huge in size and weighed 18 lbs without a speck of fat on her! I feel kind of empty without them now. Anyways, thanks again for the update, may your days be blessed 🙌 😊✌️
@hoosierpioneer yes, and mine were rescues, plus after retiring I worked for a local shelter for several years! I'm old now, though, and certain mobility issues preclude me having another pet at this time 😟
@@sweetpealee056 I am right with you there! I’m only 48 years old, but I am disabled. Last year my 32-year-old parrot died of old age, and I am still in deep grief over it. I’ve had him since I was 16 years old. I’ve also lost two dogs that I loved with all my heart. I cannot longer take care of animals to the extent that they deserve, and it hurts my heart because I love animals with all of my being. I’ve been a vegetarian for over three decades because of how much I love animals. My home is so damn quiet now, and I have no one to talk to here anymore… It’s awful!
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 I am sorry for your loss, and I feel you. I understand what it's like to lose a parrot. My Meyer's parrot, Bijou, was 24 years old when she died, which had been most of my lifespan at that time. We were soulmates. I felt as if I'd had a limb ripped out. What type of parrot was yours?
From my bird feeding experience, they tend to watch each other like hawks, no pun intended. I've seen one find food and try to slip off under a bush to enjoy the feast in private. Never works, they all spot the missing bird and BOOM the party starts. Thank you for all you do.❤
I've shared your videos with my friends, and we all agree there is a calming feeling that makes us enjoy these adventures. These videos make me feel at home
I told my family about Leon over Christmas period they all thought I was crazy till I put him on big tv for us all to watch. Ever since we always talk about new uploads about Leon ❤️
The cat with a scarf is most likely part Norwegian Mountain Cat or possibly Maine Coon. It is also likely that the kittens had different fathers as cats can get pregnant by multiple males at the same time. Thank you for rescuing them! It would be possible to tame the mother! I have worked with a number of feral cats and had success. Good luck!
My family and I had two feral cats that my brother started to feed in the backyard of our rental. When it came time for us to move we trapped them and brought them to the new house. One was named Paleface. She had a pale orange face mask. She was the easiest to tame. I was the first to pet her. We didn’t know at the time but she was pregnant. The other was named Blackie. He never let us near him except for feeding time. He got ran over after a year of moving to our new house. I miss them both.
It's always fascinating how nature always reclaims pretty much any man-made area. What was once a place for countless memories, that swim park has become a liminal space that gives way to the forest. Just like everything else you do, I equally enjoy your urbexing and adventures.
I had completely forgotten about this until you called me out but I remember as a preteen sneaking into the travelling fair in our little town with my friend on the morning that they opened. There werent really any other visitors at the point yet but we got in through one of the building connecting to it. My friend said her older brother had a job working there. We never saw him but we went up to one of the ride operators and told him that we were told by Jimmy (her brother) that we could get free rides. The guy asked us "Do you mean Bill?? Large guy, big stomach and big beard" I just answered yes even though we had no idea who Bill was. He gave us the free ride. We rode every ride in the park that morning for free just by dropping Bills name. What a happy memory to find buried deep in my brain. Thanks for that.
My 3 legged kitty is now over 8. He only has one back leg and has developed arthritis. Been to the vet, leg just can’t support “Turbo Kitty” all the time so he scoots. He is happy with his 4 yellow brothers known as ,The Street Boys. Jett my ginger boy goes everywhere his cat fellows go so have your best cat life.
Thanks for the upload, Professor Brady! and GO Jet! I love how animals don't realize they are handicapped or disabled. Especially tripods and blind cats.
You have such a soothing narrative voice. Takes me back to watching WILD KINGDOM! Always excited to see when you drop a new video. I've been with you since the purchase of Leon.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏 Love Jet and all. I have lived with 3 black kitties. ( rescued ) They have passed on. Broke my heart🙁🙁 All three lived to close 20 yrs. old. I have 1 now, can not live without a cat! Enjoy your videos and Leon too.
What you said about cats so true. Cats are more relaxed and their real personalities are able to come out when they feel secure and that they belong in a location. They need their own space. I have autism so I can definitely understand an empathize. Usually, this makes them actually much more friendly and loving, because they relaxed and they don’t have to worry.
I’ve actually owned striped hermit crabs and yes some have died, and I think out of respect the other hermits put a shell on it, I’m only guessing but it’s happened a few times
I just discovered Leon’s first video from a random recommendation and I’ve now watched through the whole playlist. It’s so inspiring to see something that was basically left to die, being saved and bouncing back. Leon is getting me through midterms, and my academic comeback. I know I can bounce back just like him. Thank you Brandy and Leon!💛
In the late 70s there was an abandoned/dilapidated covered swimming pool facility on Presidents Circle in Summerville SC we would explore, such a shame these disappear as they do.
Your narration and videography is always so enjoyable. The minute with the jellyfish swimming and music was something I could put on repeat to just dissolve away, kinda a lofi moment for me. Thank you.
That was really something to watch! I remember when your first video with Leon went on the internet. I just found your channel again...and had to sign on again! Thank you for the good times you give us to just enjoy your world!
I have land Hermit Crabs and one just passed away last week. I was so shocked because the tank is doing very well and all the other crabs are fine. He seemed very happy and healthy! Sometimes we try our best to make a good habitat for them and we may never know how or why things happen. Sorry for your crabs passing.
As someone who’s kept fish (without really knowing what I’m doing) all I can say for sure is that IF Leon ever got a tank upgrade into that old pool he, at least at first, would not grasp how big it is or know what to do with all the new space
Such a melancholy feeling to visit a place you grew up in, seeing it all gone and rotting away.... Make me feel all of my 64 years. Like they say you can never go home again 😔
I remember as a kid, having a small fish tank with two fish and the constant upkeep I had to do to keep the tank clean. So I imagine it is a nightmare sometimes to keep your underwear metropolis there clean. I applaud your hard work. 👏
That’s why I quit aquariums,too much work,we do have an outdoor pond that is mostly self maintained,we are going to do a full clean this spring,but that’s after at least six years!
I had a phase where I got really into cat genetics for a while. When black cats have silver collars and undercoats, they’re called Smokes. It’s caused by the inhibitor gene, which is also responsible for silver tabbies, which is what Bunny looks to be. It’s recessive, so it could be that mom was homozygous and dad was heterozygous or vice versa. Either way, they’re great cats.
Looking at mama cat, she seems to be a dilute tortoiseshell. This means that she has both black and red fur that have been “diluted” into being grey and a sort of pink color. If she had a smoke kitten, she’s probably the heterozygous inhibitor carrier. She doesn’t have much white, but cats only need a little bit to pass it onto some of their kittens, so Bunny probably got his from his mom.
I stumbled on a couple of tourists who had found a geocache about 7 feet away from my favorite trail. They had come all the way from England to Florida looking for geocaches. This particular cache was dated back to 2004. I left them alone to do their "take something, leave something" and hide it again. People are fascinating. Another great video and my condolences to Leon for his loss.

Hi 👋 Brooklyn Hudson, the name sounds familiar but to be honest I am not sure. I am a 65 yr old retired disabled nurse who is home bound and bedridden. I guess that’s why I enjoy Brady and his films so much. He takes us exploring! And can’t forget lovely Leon! If I think of anything I will contact you back. Have a great day! Oh and I was raised in the Midwood section of Brooklyn!
Yes! Your videos definitely are films! Great story line, music choices, production techniques, and videography, Brady! Yes, too, I did something like your sneak-in. I hid among the rink seats between ice skating sessions so I could save the $0.75 for the second session and buy a sundae afterwards. I got caught, and the custodian told me "Wait here" by one of the entrance doors. I did, expecting a tongue-lashing or some such. Instead, he'd told the entrance usher to let me in free... first in line! His generosity so humbled me, I never did that again. Loved the spooky ending. Hey, if you hit a jackpot and buy that place, you could save a lot of lobsters from grocery stores and give them a huge home! All the best...
I LOVE squirrels! I feed the squirrels. I wasn't thinking of the birds. But the birds WERE paying attention. Now I see the same birds all day. They know because they so pay attention! Nature is beyond cool!

Did you know you can also "call the birds in" to feed?
Every time i put birdseed in my feeders, i tap the empty cup on the side of the feeder in a rat-a-tat pattern that's the same each time.
The birds will come flying to the tree from all over the place, the minute they hear me tapping out that rhythm.

My wild birds never need me to call them. There’s always a long line of them sitting on the fences looking toward my kitchen door.
@@asseyez-vous6492 LOL! I dont have a fence, but i bet that's a sight to see! Good deal!~
There used to be a cardinal who would tap on the glass of my bedroom window if I slept in, and was late with the sunflower seeds. He was definitely calling me and wasn't fighting with his reflection. He'd fly down to the sill, peck a few times, then hop back to a nearby branch to wait. Repeating until I opened the window and gave him his tablespoon of seeds.
My father would make a whooooop whooooop kind of yell. Not only did the birds come swooping in but deer, rabbits, squirrels and more would join in. They would come running from all sides out of the mountains. It was something out of a doctor Doolittle movie.
I had a European robin that would respond to me whistling on it. It would whistle back, letting my know it wanted some seed.

I gotta get some land so I can have chickens n goats n pigs n loads of small nature beings roaming in n out ... fir now I'll just get some fish ,!! Got two canaries singing their heads off n free flying around their part of the house .. ❤
Me too😊
Birds will definitely sound the "dinner bell" if it's a regular feeding spot and food is being put out lol. You'd think they'd keep quiet so there would be more food for them, but I think they just get so excited and happy that they can't help but to start singing and calling. You'd also be surprised about the the networking some types of birds have with small groups of each other, even to where they'll take turns being the one bird who sticks around to watch for feeding time at a particular site in order to then be able to alert all the others who are off looking for food elsewhere in the interim.
12:58-13:05. I've a disability that effects my ability to use my legs and what you said warms my heart. Brady, I've always enjoyed your Sir David Attenborough-esque voiceover.
The David Attenborough of the American South 😂
I know you really appreciate hearing how this series has impacted people's lives. So I felt that I would explain how leon and this series has helped me stay connected with my partner despite us living on different continents.
Both me and my partner have been struggling with loneliness for most our lives, but through chance found each other regardless. My partner then later introduced me to Leon th lobster, and we have connected even more over our shared love for the lovely creature, even with this video we sat in front of our respective screens together and watched it.
Without this series I think the distance would have felt so much bigger, but luckily we didn't end up having to know that.
Many other stressful things have happened, I found out I have a cyst in my brain, and the prospect of potentially needing surgery to fix it made us decide to finally find a date for when we could meet in person.
I know both me and my partner have permanent conditions that limit our lives in fairly noticeable ways, and for me at least. To see Jett who's missing one of his legs still be loved despite that disability be perhaps even more loved because of this limit as well as him living his best life, it gives me a lot of hope and motivation to keep going despite all the obstacles. But also just Leon himself, to see him go from the scared little thing to so clearly being happy and thriving. It's been a genuinely special experience, even from behind a computer screen.
So just to summarise, these videos have helped us so incredibly much in finding hope and love. And I just wanted you to know that

As someone who has TNR-ed for over 20 years, I can say, most feral adult cats CAN be tamed. Keep them separated from the other cats, isolated, and use a bath brush to touch them when you get to that point. Eventually, you should be able to substitute a hand. Some of the best cats I've had were ex-ferals. More loving and loyal than cats you raise from kittens, though they do retain some skittish reactions.
Thank you for caring for the animals. A pleasure to watch.
Naming the feral mama cat Freya is actually so fitting! In Norse mythology, Freya's chariot is pulled by two cats rather than horses. I think it's a great name. As for the hermit crab and its arrangement of shells, I feel as though some creatures (including them) know when their time is coming and will do what makes them most comfortable as it draws near. It may have moved back into the old shell because it was more comfortable to it, like an old shoe that fits better than the new one, despite being worn out. The extra shell is a bit of a question mark though- it may have been that the whelk shell had a crack or weak point that it was trying to cover. Or maybe the sea urchin habit of 'wearing' shells is starting to catch on! Awesome video as always.
Cats are able to have different dads in the same litter so I bet that’s the case!
Yeah I have 3 females cats they had 5 other siblings some had same dad's or different dad's. Their mom was a calico a mixed breed all ready.
@@WilliamHollinger2019 Calico are not exactly a mixed breed.. there more a Generic anomaly, and all Calico are female
@@Vmaster005 well ginger or orange cats are considered mixed breed too.
They're not. They're colors, not breeds. @@WilliamHollinger2019
The tiny shrimp trying to gather a big shrimp for food was very weirdly funny.
Edit to add: The mama cat seems to be some sort of grey tortoiseshell, so it's likely that all three of the kitties came from her and the same dad. But it's also totally a possibility that they have different dads!
The only thing missing you naming them. Where is your face ?
The color pattern is called a delute tortie like a Calico they are almost always girls
@@marc_PetersonHe did a video with another TH-camr and you can see him there! He has a very nice face.
@@Calthrow Dilute, like Diluted, aka Mute/Muted, meaning toned-down, lacking, or faded.
@NadoriKaija that is what I had tried to put but yes
If you had that pool you could save many more Leons.
You're such a wonderful soul, Brady. Jett, Sydney and Bunny are just stunning! They are thriving all because of your kind compassionate huge heart. And Leon, of course is beautiful as always...the King! We all love him 🥰🦞💜
Totally agree with your sentiment on Brady's Soul and heart @KatieHellOnHeels. He is wonderfully connected to nature and critters. A pure restful delight @Bradybrandwood huge thanks.
❤❤❤❤
How sad and unsettling to go back to a place from your childhood and find it like this.
I don't know, I find it kinda of beautiful in a way. Yeah you can never go back in time but the fleeting nature makes that memory all the more special and seeing nature come back as well as the tagging reminds me that we're all part of something much larger than ourselves and that life continues to thrive even when we're gone. Nothing on earth lasts forever, but none of your deeds are in vain.
@@hamishfoxNicley said.
The most unsettling parts are that the company was not required to clean up all of the crap on the property and were allowed to just abandon the mess which left non-biodegradable trash everywhere. We need to start holding people and companies accountable and treating our earth better. The second unsettling part is that our society has become so rotten that vandals feel no compunction about creating hateful trash, simply because they’ve never been held accountable for bad behavior or actions. This is not kids will be kids, this is willful destruction, simply because there is no values or morality taught. Again, America needs to do better.
At least it's still there. In Europe it would be demolished right away without leaving a trace
@@hamishfox - I agree that this is nicely said but I'm more like the first commenter. I found it unsettling to be reminded how far away my carefree teenage years of swimming with friends had become, making those 1980s memories feel a little haunting.
I have fallen in love with Leon. Who would have thought a Lobster could be loveable. I look forward to your videos every month.
I will never again eat a lobster
@psxtuneservice next we'll have to have you meet a cow...they're wonderful people!
so i got to the bird part just now- and fun fact tufted titmouse (the grey one thats small with a white belly and some brown on the leg area and black beak) they actually will scout areas for food and they tell other birds when theres food somewhere. so theres a chance they let all the other birds know!
Brady, this is another masterpiece. The gentle mood you create with your voice and the music, seeing Leon and his neighbors (R.I.P. hermit crab), the few moments of your son’s jellyfish, and your geocaching and abandoned-swimpark adventures are so interesting, informative, beautiful, and relaxing! I’ve been following since you first brought Leon home from the supermarket, and i wish you were able to rescue all the other supermarket lobsters. Thanks to you, I won’t eat anything that contains any bit of a lobster!
Just think how many grocery store lobsters he could rescue if he had that pool. Lol.
Yes, it is very possible to tame a feral cat. You just have to have her vet checked for diseases after you capture her, isolate her in a small room, like a bathroom with food, water a bed and toys. Everyone will get used to each other’s scent, and then you can start to give her more room to roam. If you just give her space, she will eventually begin to trust you. She may not trust you completely, but she should start to warm up to you. We have had several feral cats come into our house and some never completely trust us, but will come and sit beside us. We just have to give them their space, and let them evolve on their own. We accept them for who they are.
I’ve had a feral get friendly enough to sit in my lap and allow me to stroke him, but he did NOT allow picking up. He and I shared a home for eight years.
Great advice! I’ve rescued feral grown cats & they made wonderful companions. Just takes time, like what you described. Once trust kicks in, you’re putty in their paws!!
@@MEKCreationsyep I had one that would barely eat on my porch with me clear on the other side until months later she ended up in my lap purring. Then I was on my way home one day and saw her in the road after a car hit her. I was devastated 😢 But yes it’s definitely possible, you just have to let them come around on their time.
This worked for my former feral.
My feral mom evolved as all of yours did. I was crossing her line anytime I tried to pet her with both hands. She loved petting with one hand. I guess 2 hands meant capture to her.
I was on my way out the door to go to the bank when the latest Leon video showed up on my feed. Standing at the bar in my kitchen with my raincoat on captivated as always by Leon & friends & the wonderful life you all share together. Mesmerized by the soothing sound of your voice, I get a 25 minute break from the crippling anxiety I've been struggling with for almost 2 years now. I really appreciate you for sharing your world with us. It seems like just when I need it the most, one of your videos shows up on my feed & I'm grateful for that. Love y'all so much! ❤❤❤❤❤
🙏🏻🫶🏻🤍😢
I love that you call it her having a scarf. My cat too has a big fluffy scarf!
17:00 Your shrimp has eggs, they may by now have already hatched into their plankton stage and either eaten or filtered before settling onto the substrate. I don't know how long this takes bit they go through several molts.
I kept a 75-gallon marine tank similar to yours, I used a Magnum cannister filter mainly for aeration and some filtration, I never vacuumed the coral gravel because my reasoning was, it wasn't done in a natural marine environment, I had great water quality and no troublesome algae, I only added fresh water treated to remove any chemicals from our city water source. I had a large mat of grape caulerpa (Caulerpa lentillifera) and daylight lights. My only resident was a 18" snowflake moray eel that would eat shrimp from your fingers.
I had a 10-gallon marine tank I used water from Dyes Inlet, this one was unheated, I only added treated fresh water and it had polyps from likely from the genus Metridium, plankton and other tiny life. I miss having a marine tank, but I don't have the space.
Good eye!
All my cats are rescues, and one of them is blind. Sometimes I forget she is blind. Animals are such amazing creatures. I love your household. ♥
One of my cats, Bunny, is almost blind, too. She's having a hard time adjusting since I added 2 kittens to the home. I think it was their zooming past that weirded her out. Now they've learned to walk past her carefull not to disturb her. Despite her failing sight she's a pretty good aim with that paw.
I love all the Leon updates! It’s the first thing I watched when I got home from work today, and my four cats watched with me! Thank you for feeding the birds. And yes, birds DO communicate with each other when a food source is found! Chickadees, Titmice, Nuthatches, Cardinals etc.. all have different calls to say “Hey everybody, there’s food over here!”. 🙂
Every time i get a Leon notification i stop everything to settle in and watch...you never disappoint Mr. Brady Brandwood! Still really enjoying the exploration videos around your area. Such a different eco system from where i live in Colorado where if something disturbs a natural area it can take decades to recover if ever. What beautiful country you have there! I also love seeing how all the cats are doing especially now since both of my fur babies recently crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge due to old age. My female looked a lot like your black female with the pretty ruff...in fact almost identical except my Sweetpea was huge in size and weighed 18 lbs without a speck of fat on her! I feel kind of empty without them now. Anyways, thanks again for the update, may your days be blessed 🙌 😊✌️
Remember all the shelters are overflowing.
@hoosierpioneer yes, and mine were rescues, plus after retiring I worked for a local shelter for several years! I'm old now, though, and certain mobility issues preclude me having another pet at this time 😟
@@sweetpealee056
I am right with you there! I’m only 48 years old, but I am disabled. Last year my 32-year-old parrot died of old age, and I am still in deep grief over it. I’ve had him since I was 16 years old. I’ve also lost two dogs that I loved with all my heart. I cannot longer take care of animals to the extent that they deserve, and it hurts my heart because I love animals with all of my being. I’ve been a vegetarian for over three decades because of how much I love animals. My home is so damn quiet now, and I have no one to talk to here anymore… It’s awful!
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 I am sorry for your loss, and I feel you. I understand what it's like to lose a parrot. My Meyer's parrot, Bijou, was 24 years old when she died, which had been most of my lifespan at that time. We were soulmates. I felt as if I'd had a limb ripped out. What type of parrot was yours?
From my bird feeding experience, they tend to watch each other like hawks, no pun intended. I've seen one find food and try to slip off under a bush to enjoy the feast in private. Never works, they all spot the missing bird and BOOM the party starts. Thank you for all you do.❤
there is a lot of research on food caching in corvids, keyword theory of mind. You might be interested to look into it, it is fazinating.
@@Sc-dd6hb Hehe yeah, I was coming to comment that the blue jays and crows here very loudly let the whole neighborhood know when I put food out. 😆
"It may be a long time until its found again" Every geocacher in the area: challenge accepted
😅😅😅👊👊👊
I have 4 rescue cats. Thank you for saving them.🎖
This guy is great. This is a compliment when i say his voice puts me to sleep. His whole vibe is just relaxing. I really like this channel
I've shared your videos with my friends, and we all agree there is a calming feeling that makes us enjoy these adventures. These videos make me feel at home
I wish they were more frequent
I told my family about Leon over Christmas period they all thought I was crazy till I put him on big tv for us all to watch. Ever since we always talk about new uploads about Leon ❤️
The cat with a scarf is most likely part Norwegian Mountain Cat or possibly Maine Coon. It is also likely that the kittens had different fathers as cats can get pregnant by multiple males at the same time. Thank you for rescuing them! It would be possible to tame the mother! I have worked with a number of feral cats and had success. Good luck!
Leon won Powerball❤👍
My family and I had two feral cats that my brother started to feed in the backyard of our rental. When it came time for us to move we trapped them and brought them to the new house. One was named Paleface. She had a pale orange face mask. She was the easiest to tame. I was the first to pet her. We didn’t know at the time but she was pregnant. The other was named Blackie. He never let us near him except for feeding time. He got ran over after a year of moving to our new house. I miss them both.
Thank you for helping the cat's. I've been helping stray's since I was a kid and it never ends.
It's always fascinating how nature always reclaims pretty much any man-made area. What was once a place for countless memories, that swim park has become a liminal space that gives way to the forest.
Just like everything else you do, I equally enjoy your urbexing and adventures.
Chickadees are the food finders, usually. They announce the find to the rest of the winter flocks.
They have the prettiest songs and I love how they travel in groups 🖤🤍🩶
the kittens look so healthy. Cydney is a beauty.
That is one epic tank 👌. Like having a tiny bit the ocean in your house.
The kitties continue to be gorgeous as always🥰
Great video
I had completely forgotten about this until you called me out but I remember as a preteen sneaking into the travelling fair in our little town with my friend on the morning that they opened. There werent really any other visitors at the point yet but we got in through one of the building connecting to it. My friend said her older brother had a job working there. We never saw him but we went up to one of the ride operators and told him that we were told by Jimmy (her brother) that we could get free rides. The guy asked us "Do you mean Bill?? Large guy, big stomach and big beard" I just answered yes even though we had no idea who Bill was. He gave us the free ride. We rode every ride in the park that morning for free just by dropping Bills name. What a happy memory to find buried deep in my brain. Thanks for that.
Cats are such a joy
My 3 legged kitty is now over 8. He only has one back leg and has developed arthritis. Been to the vet, leg just can’t support “Turbo Kitty” all the time so he scoots. He is happy with his 4 yellow brothers known as ,The Street Boys. Jett my ginger boy goes everywhere his cat fellows go so have your best cat life.
Thanks for the upload, Professor Brady! and GO Jet! I love how animals don't realize they are handicapped or disabled. Especially tripods and blind cats.
Your beautiful cats ❤
Please pray my Cosmo comes home, he has been missing since January 7th 2024 💔
🙏🙏🙏
I'm so sorry 😞
Sending prayers for you and cosmo ❤ 🙏 🙏 🙏
Praying for Cosmo's safe and speedy return. Hang in there. 🙏🙏
Thank you all so much 🙏🏼
I loved seeing that little turtle.
Kittens from one litter can have multiple fathers. Beautiful cats!
I didn't fully realize how much work you put into Leon's habitat. The anemone is charming. 😊
You have such a soothing narrative voice. Takes me back to watching WILD KINGDOM! Always excited to see when you drop a new video. I've been with you since the purchase of Leon.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏 Love Jet and all. I have lived with 3 black kitties. ( rescued ) They have passed on. Broke my heart🙁🙁 All three lived to close 20 yrs. old. I have 1 now, can not live without a cat! Enjoy your videos and Leon too.
Awwwwww that is very cool you had 3 black kitties! 🐈⬛ Jett and the other kittens are such a joy to have around.
That pool complex reminded me of the city of Pripyat, which is just as spooky. Lovely to see mother nature reclaim her land.
Yeah it’s a weird and interesting place right now.
What you said about cats so true. Cats are more relaxed and their real personalities are able to come out when they feel secure and that they belong in a location. They need their own space. I have autism so I can definitely understand an empathize. Usually, this makes them actually much more friendly and loving, because they relaxed and they don’t have to worry.
I’ve actually owned striped hermit crabs and yes some have died, and I think out of respect the other hermits put a shell on it, I’m only guessing but it’s happened a few times
Legends has it that Cornpop still lives by that swimming pool.
Freya. Great choice.
I just discovered Leon’s first video from a random recommendation and I’ve now watched through the whole playlist. It’s so inspiring to see something that was basically left to die, being saved and bouncing back. Leon is getting me through midterms, and my academic comeback. I know I can bounce back just like him. Thank you Brandy and Leon!💛
Why does your 25 minutes always last only 10?!!
You are a versatile documentary maker, never a dull moment!
A super fan from Belgium
I love Leon. And Leon loves me. ❤
In the late 70s there was an abandoned/dilapidated covered swimming pool facility on Presidents Circle in Summerville SC we would explore, such a shame these disappear as they do.
Your videography and editing skills are seriously top notch. I love the pace of your story telling. It’s so relaxing and fun at the same time 😊
I love your videos and all you have done, not only for Lean but for all the help you have provided for the stray cats you have helped. RESPECT🙏
I love your channel Leon and all the other things. Learning so much. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome pamelanay! Thank you for watching. ✌️✌️✌️
man, being a kid in the eighties must've been amazing.
Your narration and videography is always so enjoyable. The minute with the jellyfish swimming and music was something I could put on repeat to just dissolve away, kinda a lofi moment for me. Thank you.
It's possible that particular crab just just couldn't take the stress of such an environmental switch.
Yeah that’s definitely a possibility. ✌️✌️✌️
That was really something to watch! I remember when your first video with Leon went on the internet. I just found your channel again...and had to sign on again! Thank you for the good times you give us to just enjoy your world!
Awesome! Thanks for checking back in on Leon. ✌️✌️✌️🦞
Glad to see Jett is doing well
I’m so glad you continue to post and the education and entertainment you provide us with! It’s always a happy moment to see you have a new upload!!❤️
I have land Hermit Crabs and one just passed away last week. I was so shocked because the tank is doing very well and all the other crabs are fine. He seemed very happy and healthy! Sometimes we try our best to make a good habitat for them and we may never know how or why things happen. Sorry for your crabs passing.
As someone who’s kept fish (without really knowing what I’m doing) all I can say for sure is that IF Leon ever got a tank upgrade into that old pool he, at least at first, would not grasp how big it is or know what to do with all the new space
Supermarket lobsters, cats, abandoned pools, AND a whodunit murder mystery? You spoil us, Mr. Brandwood.
Such a melancholy feeling to visit a place you grew up in, seeing it all gone and rotting away.... Make me feel all of my 64 years. Like they say you can never go home again 😔
Oh, my God, can we get a tour of your son's jellyfish??? They're amazing!
I remember as a kid, having a small fish tank with two fish and the constant upkeep I had to do to keep the tank clean. So I imagine it is a nightmare sometimes to keep your underwear metropolis there clean. I applaud your hard work. 👏
That’s why I quit aquariums,too much work,we do have an outdoor pond that is mostly self maintained,we are going to do a full clean this spring,but that’s after at least six years!
My black cat with one front leg, climbs all over everything! Nothing stops her!
I had a phase where I got really into cat genetics for a while. When black cats have silver collars and undercoats, they’re called Smokes. It’s caused by the inhibitor gene, which is also responsible for silver tabbies, which is what Bunny looks to be. It’s recessive, so it could be that mom was homozygous and dad was heterozygous or vice versa. Either way, they’re great cats.
Looking at mama cat, she seems to be a dilute tortoiseshell. This means that she has both black and red fur that have been “diluted” into being grey and a sort of pink color. If she had a smoke kitten, she’s probably the heterozygous inhibitor carrier. She doesn’t have much white, but cats only need a little bit to pass it onto some of their kittens, so Bunny probably got his from his mom.
Birds do
definitely sound the alarm when new food is put out. Believe me I know. 😄🐦🐦🐦
Your love and compassion for animals is highly commendable.
Those large bleachers at 20:23 make the old warer park look more like it was a Roman colusuam than an old water park.
Oh yaay... leon. Love from Cape Town.
I stumbled on a couple of tourists who had found a geocache about 7 feet away from my favorite trail. They had come all the way from England to Florida looking for geocaches. This particular cache was dated back to 2004. I left them alone to do their "take something, leave something" and hide it again. People are fascinating. Another great video and my condolences to Leon for his loss.
Freya is also the norse goddess most associated with cats! Her chariot is drawn by two of them. It's a fantastic name.
I just found your channel and I love how much you love and respect animals. 💚💙

Yes! Your videos definitely are films! Great story line, music choices, production techniques, and videography, Brady!
Yes, too, I did something like your sneak-in. I hid among the rink seats between ice skating sessions so I could save the $0.75 for the second session and buy a sundae afterwards. I got caught, and the custodian told me "Wait here" by one of the entrance doors. I did, expecting a tongue-lashing or some such. Instead, he'd told the entrance usher to let me in free... first in line! His generosity so humbled me, I never did that again.
Loved the spooky ending. Hey, if you hit a jackpot and buy that place, you could save a lot of lobsters from grocery stores and give them a huge home!
All the best...
