Preparing a woodpecker for winter. First, he finds a dead tree and starts making holes for the acorns. Each hole is made very thoughtfully, because if the hole is large, other birds can easily steal the acorn. If the hole is narrow, the nut can break and deteriorate. By the end of summer, the woodpecker's "jewelry" work ends, by this time the acorns ripen and take their places in the tree. The trunk of a large tree can hold about 50,000 acorns, allowing the bird a satisfying winter.
I have been going to Yosemite since I was 4 years old. I have not been there for over 10 years. I have been there over 50 times. So nice to see it this video. Have fun!
Stop by in Washington State. If you need a stop, we are 3.5 miles off of I-5 in Skagit County. The Bow Hill Exit. Just 30 minutes south of Bellingham, 15 minutes north of Mount Vernon. We have food, eggs, etc. Not a fancy house, but nice folks who love what you are doing!
Awwh Thank you so much for your offer !! I love chickens !! We are already passed - but we are super grateful for your kind offer !! We used to have about 45 chickens / ducks and a pet turkey ... so that would have been lovely to visit 😉 kind regards Marianne xx
Love, love love this park. When I was in my 20's my friend and I hiked to the top of Half dome and spent the night. It was us, 2 others and a fox up there that night. I saw where a section of the Alaska Hwy was washed out and closed. Safe travels!
Thanks Adele - I love the fox story !! This is fabulous .... I love those moments, they make the moment more memorable ... for me the fog made the story !! Thanks for the tip - we are keeping a close eye on the situation and speaking to local rangers who have inside information !! Love M xx
Beautiful video & thanks for sharing! The world can thank John Muir for preserving the lands of Yosemite Park. Truly a beautiful place and is on my list of places to see in the USA!
I have happy memories of Yosemite and San Francisco having visited 6 times, once with my late wife. I also have a friend who lives in Larkspur & has a boat at Sausalito, just north of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco Bay, so I have ben over the bridge by car & under it by motor cruiser. The fog comes off the cold Hubolt current, which flows along the coast & chills the air above it, causing fog when the dew point is high enough. I’m a Brit, now living in Australia.
Thank you so much for sharing your videos with me I'm at home a lot and this is really helpful thank you! I know that you're enjoying your adventure I hope you will take some time and enjoy Canada as well we'd love to see you here!
Hello Ambassadors Nice video again. I hope you really look for gold since you are in CA.😂😂 You were in the Caldera of the volcano there. Such a nice waterfall it is, isn't it? Thank you for taking us with you and sharing your experiences with us. You two are always lovely, bringing sunshine to our days. 💕💕♥️🇹🇷🇹🇷☀️☀️🌹🌹Love you guys💕💕
Woo Hoo - we are going to pan for gold !! If we get some we will be giving it to the turtle conservation project !! love to the family and we hope you get some rest during the holidays xx 🌺😉💜💐
@@TREADtheglobe Thank you ambassadors. I am sure you guys are having fun. I would definitely recommend the bottom of the boulders as well as the sands. Due to gold's density, they have tendency to settle mostly in those areas. Also you can check " Quartz veins" in the Granite rocks. Usually, gold is associated within the quartz veins as well. It is all MAGMATIC process. You guys are noble, donating the finds to support the turtle conservation. We are all good, had JULY 4 off and enjoyed the rest. Please, let me know if you guys need something, anything. We all send our lives from Florida💕💕💕💕
Two of my favourite places in the States. Interestingly San Francisco Bay was overlooked before being discovered because of the intense fog. Many early explorers missed it! The trees at Yosemite might have holes because of infection or infestation. On our cherry trees, we have to chisel out holes to remove infections. Glad you are having such an exciting and inspiring adventure, enjoy the West Coast!
Hey guys I'm an American from Oregon, whose been watching yourchannel for a long time. So l happy your enjoying our wonderful country, the good and the not so good . Lori p.s do be care of the bears.
I could spend a few days in Yosemite.....very nice place and good to see it's not been commercialised. Pity about the San Francisco bridge being shrouded in mist but you will probable wake up to see it mist free! THE song to play whilst there is San Francisco Bay Blues......enjoy and safe travels!!
Yep it was epic - book well in advance if you visit as everything was full and the tickets almost sold out - this is why we had to go in at 6am - The mist will make this funny story more fun !! 😂🌺
Congratulations on making it to the Pacific coast. I have really enjoyed your videos. My wife and I did a 6 week RV trip from Texas to Alaska then down the Pacific coast highway. You have a lot of incredible sights ahead of you. Best wishes.
I’m so happy you took time out to look at squirrels and blue bonnets. Your tour of Yosemite was great; I kept an eye out for Yosemite Sam but did t spot him. The San Francisco footage was a super example of the need for flexibility and humor in travel. Safe travels and see you next week.
Thanks Kathi - yep - it is impossible to show the full beauty in a 20 minute video, but we had a fabulous time and so happy to see the blue bonnets !! Flexibility and humour .... our middle names LOL - Love to you xx Marianne xx 💐💜🙏
Thank you! Will do - and thank you for your messages - we hope to see you at the meet up in Vancouver Island - I will share the date as soon as I can xx
As a kid I laid in that green field buy the bridge watching the waterfall. Amazing! And we did see bears. I was sure they were going to eat my brother. But they are small compared to what you will hopefully see in Alaska!!!!
The 'Fog' is San Franciscos Airconditioning! My Auntie lived in San Anselmo in Marin County, North side of the Golden Gate and was in the low 90s by time we got to the Golden Gate the fog was in and freezing cold! I have pics of me with the Bridge behind me! If you get a chance go to Mount Tamalpais near San Anselmo and from the top you get an Amazing View of the Bay! Big Carpark up there and your ears pop! Wish I was there!!! :-)
Hi Janet - we were told that it had to be a certain specific bear spray to cross the border - so we bought it in Canadian Tire just to be sure - video coming soon 👍🌺
Lived in the Bay Area for 4 years...that is fog rolling in to San Fran..usually every afternoon...I hope you got to see half dome and El Capitan in Yosemite.... love Yosemite
Congratulations you guys my San Francisco pretty cool!) Just love you guys.. Have traveling Mercies over your vehicle . May God bless you both.😄🙏🙏👍💜💜💜💜👍👍👍
Sorry, but I'm a new potential viewer. I found you while searching for good dining in Cornwall, England. LOL. My question: where do I start watching you two from the beginning, if I want to binge? Thanx. Bob
Great question Bob !! If you go to playlists on our youtube channel (there are tabs along the top of each channels page and click Playlists) you can choose watch from the beginning, alternatively you can go to the videos tab and then select the filter button on the right hand side of the page and choose 'date added oldest' they will be shown in that order 👍. I hope this helps and Welcome - we hope you enjoy the videos and watch our progress as we go from beginners to work in progress !! LOL - Kind regards Marianne 🌺
FYI You can get a protective housing for your GoPro9 it's called Rollcage and will protect your camera in most situations. Keep up the good work! Our planet is so beautiful!
@@TREADtheglobe There is a documentary about the first every free climb of El Capitan, by a guy called Alex Honnold called Free Solo...worth a watch if you have the chance. Yosemite is one of my favourite US Nat'l Parks, really enjoying watching your travels. We have just bought our first ever camper van and can't wait to take to the roads.
Great video again. Lovin the trip. Someone may have told you that a lad free climbed a huge cliff face in Yosemite. Crazy man. Professional rock climber Alex Honnold attempts to conquer the first free solo climb of famed El Capitan's 900-metre vertical rock face at Yosemite National Park. Release date: 28 September 2018 (USA)
Look at you two getting at it without coffee before the sun comes up! 😲 Yosemite is one of those places so beautiful it almost seems fake. Wowee!! Oops, the GoPro broke -- time to upgrade! Clever move! 😁 Yep, the fog rolls into San Francisco as quickly as they say it does! The way the sea, the prevailing winds, and the land's topography interact, it can go from Sunny to socked in before you know it. Lots of love! ❤️❤️😎👍xx
I would try to find a repair shop that will be willing to repair the GoPro, which are expensive. Even it would no longer be waterproof, at least you have a working camera.
Another amazing Tread the Globe video 👍❤️ The shots of the woodpecker were beautiful. You could make the videos longer by 5 min and I would be fine 🤗🤗 . Thank you again. 🌿⚘️🌿🐿🐻
Beautiful waterfalls and coverage. I’m glad you got a new go pro. Remember when you make it to Oregon there is no sales tax! Make sure you look at Facerock in Bandon, OR.
Yosemite is amazing, isn't it? Just so hard to capture on video how huge and beautiful everything is! Your video brought back so many memories. I'm a bit sad you didn't see any rock climbers. :-( If your route takes Trudy through Idaho, Wyoming or Montana on the way to Alaska, you might want to pick up bear spray before then. Safe travels! Love watching your adventures!
Couldn't agree more! Fabulous !! I am a little fearful with 'dropping off heights' so I was not so sad that we didn't see any climbers !! 😂😂 But excited to share Alaska !!
Well done.. Some amazing temp changes. Here in Teesside UK, driving to Saltburn on the coast can have the same results. T shirt to Parka in the space of 15 miles.
Hi David - we are heading up to Alaska, then driving to Michigan / Chicago to pick up Route 66 and then California and Baja - we hope you enjoy the videos and we will share as much as we can 🌺
When ever it is hot in the Central Valley places like San Francisco and other immediate coastal towns and beaches are fogged in and much cooler. I’ve left my house before at 115F which is around 46C, 2.5 hours later it 53F in SF for a difference of 63F. The hot weather inland sucks in the marine layer offshore into the bay
Wau, the park was masing, should be something for me 😍, sorry Marianne and Chris I am not so city people but I am always following your travel ❤️ take care!
Love you guys. Hola from Baja. I lived near yosemite a while, and am glad I have a lifetime park pass. Been 2 47 states, the Carribean, and Europe b4 becoming too disabled to drive far. Been here since Sept. come visit San Felipe Mexico and watch the sunrise over the Sea. I have room
Hi hi I have commented on your channel before. As always it looks like you guys are having a great time. Please please please DO NOT park Trudy on ANY street while in San Francisco. I am a San Franciscan I am not trying to scare you but San Francisco has more vehicle break ins than any other city in the United States. I would not be surprised to hear that Trudy was broken into while you were sleeping. I would pay to park in a 24 hour parking garage with full time security while visiting and that still will not be 100% safe. It is reported that over 3,000 break ins occur each month! These are only the ones reported to the police. Good luck and god bless!
Thanks Bill - we are grateful for the advice and as vanlife and cities do not mix we avoid most cities - and we hope one day to come back and do a city mini break with our back packs and see the city properly 🌺 kind regards Marianne
At 9:38, I believe that the answer to the question about the holes in the tree trunks is that the local termite community took out a huge loan…they burrowed a lot, but they should have taken advice beforehand from their financial consultant, Woody the Woodpecker, who knows the drill 🐜🐦🌲
Not on this visit - we will hopefully come back on a mini break without the van - as vanlife and cities ... NEVER work out !! too noisy, busy and never anywhere to park !!
Welcome to the west coast. We are a small Turkish family in bay area. We have been watching ypu since your journey started. How long are you staying in CA?
Nope couldn't see a thing LOL !! But what a moment - and the fog somehow made it a funny memory !! We will be back one day without the van to check out the city - hopefully they fog behaves !! Marianne 😉
Welcome to San Francisco! But did you really get away with camping at the Golden Gate Bridge vista point!?! The Park Service must have kicked you out! LOL! If you're still here, hit me up and I'll take you out for dinner. Seriously. 🙂
@@TREADtheglobe 😄 That's good. Enjoy the rest of your trip, guys! If you are continuing up north, the Oregon coast is amazingly beautiful. I also like the town of Astoria, OR. Have fun!
Yep - it is hard to share it on a 20 minute video - but we hope we have inspired others to visit - but our tip would be book the campsite / parking way in advance as it was fully booked when we visited 🙏🌺
Love this episod what fantastisc things you get to see!! 💞 And shows everyone who follows you!! Thanks!! I'm sorry but something went wrong and wrong thumb was pressed 😔 It should be 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁X
Insane that they visited California and basically didn’t stop in San Francisco, bizarre. Not sure why you’d wanna skip the cable cars, golden gate park, Chinatown, Alcatraz, etc…weird…

In a lot of amercian national parks having hanging bear bags to store your food in (even for camper vans) are compulsory
Great to know
I've been following you two for 2 years.
What a wonderful, wonderful legacy you are leaving for your children and grandchildren 🥰
Awwh Thank you so much Alison 🌺😘💐🙏
Bluebonnets! Beautiful Bluebonnets! Thanks for sharing that moment.
“the coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.” Mark Twain
Don't think they need to worry about the weather, they just drove through on the freeway and over the GG. On with seeing America.

Glad you enjoyed it Levina - it was such a moment - we will never ever ever forget this !! M xx

That big tree is a lodgepole pine.
The geography of the US is absolutely beautiful. It doesn’t seem to matter where you go. It’s the only reason I’d ever visit…. In a van touring.
Beautiful videography. I'll take your word for it that GGB is there. Ha!

Not on this visit - we will hopefully come back on a mini break without the van - as vanlife and cities ... NEVER work out !! too noisy, busy and never anywhere to park !!
I have to say that that's the shortest visit to Yosemite I've seen...and San Francisco was just a drive through. Hope you enjoyed the roads.
Amazing places, so beautiful. Thanks for sharing , safe travels.❤️
Thank you Hakan
Welcome to the west coast. We are a small Turkish family in bay area. We have been watching ypu since your journey started. How long are you staying in CA?
Thank you so much! We will be back in CA in the Fall 👍 We write a free newsletter which is real time and you can track us 💐🌷
Shame about the weather. Awesome video though
Too bad it was so foggy going over the Golden Gate Bridge or you might have seen James Bond up there fighting with Zorin
Nope couldn't see a thing LOL !! But what a moment - and the fog somehow made it a funny memory !! We will be back one day without the van to check out the city - hopefully they fog behaves !! Marianne 😉
Welcome to San Francisco! But did you really get away with camping at the Golden Gate Bridge vista point!?! The Park Service must have kicked you out! LOL! If you're still here, hit me up and I'll take you out for dinner. Seriously. 🙂
Hi and thank you so much - we are no longer here !! (Not kicked out though !! ) I think the fog hid us ??? 😂👍
@@TREADtheglobe 😄 That's good. Enjoy the rest of your trip, guys! If you are continuing up north, the Oregon coast is amazingly beautiful. I also like the town of Astoria, OR. Have fun!
If it were LA would be smog(pollution), but San Fran will be fog.
Enjoy guys!
I wish you would have stayed a few days in Yosemite.
Yep - it is hard to share it on a 20 minute video - but we hope we have inspired others to visit - but our tip would be book the campsite / parking way in advance as it was fully booked when we visited 🙏🌺
Love this episod what fantastisc things you get to see!! 💞 And shows everyone who follows you!! Thanks!! I'm sorry but something went wrong and wrong thumb was pressed 😔 It should be 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁X
Hi Diana - thank you so much - we appreciate that you come along with us 🌺🙌. And wow - so many thumbs up !! Woo hoo xx
👍🇹🇷👋🏻
Great video!! But you can't go through San Francisco without going down Lombard St, the crookedest street in the world!!
Thanks for the tip 🌺
Insane that they visited California and basically didn’t stop in San Francisco, bizarre. Not sure why you’d wanna skip the cable cars, golden gate park, Chinatown, Alcatraz, etc…weird…
