Hey Tim Thx for the tour. always look forward to your vids, I'm from the panhandle and luv seeing the panthers, may have to buy one of their car tags this year :-) Thx for the time and effort look forward to the next one.... ✌️
I'm in PA and our black bears are so much hairier up here. 😂 I guess because of the heat in Fla they evolved to have shorter and less fur than we have in the colder northern states. Our black bears do get bigger too. 😅 I enjoy these quality videos.
Good to see you Tim. Happy Easter, if you celebrate. That Momma Boar looked as big as the bear. She was a big girl. I thought maybe the two big cats were a cougar and a bobcat. But you said panther, so, it must be. Thank you so much for sharing all the critters with us. I truly enjoy your videos. Take good care of yourself and stay away from them gators. xo
@@blobbertmcblob4888 The only animal accepted by science to be a panther, is the Florida Panther. Outside of the named subspecies of puma, panther is only an adjective used to describe cats with black fur.
Incredible, incredible, INCREDIBLE video!! I do a lot of wildlife photography, mostly here in Middle Georgia. This video compilation has convinced me that I need to broaden my horizon with a trail cam or two or three or ... Thank you so much for sharing this with us!! I look forward to watching many, many more!!
Of all the trails to be under water, it had to be this one!!! Be safe, Tim. I am so glad to see you are doing well. I look forward to your TCPU. Hope your Easter was filled with joy, blessings and candy.
Love you videos!!! I rarely comment but I gotta mention that LONG LEGGED bear!!! I have never seen one with such long legs!!! Thanks so much for all the work you do to share our beautiful Florida wildlife with us!!!
Thanks Julie. I've always thought it was interesting to see the different body shapes and colors of the bears. I imagine the long-legged ones are the ones that have been down here the longest walking around in the water. I'd say the short fat ones walked down here from up north.
I just found your channel a few days ago. I absolutely love watching your videos and your humor when talking about your videos and your adventures. You are so brave. You are the best. Please keep making videos on your trail cams, as I can't live without them. I appreciate all the blood, sweat, and tears...you put into every episode. Love the ghost orchids!❤
hello. Let me ask. Are there snakes in this location? Here in Brazil it is impossible not to wear snake guards when walking in the woods. Have you ever thought about using one? Another fantastic video, I really like your videos.
@@hillslide Here in my region we have a predominance of 3 dangerous snakes. I will put the scientific name, as we have several regional names for each snake. Bothrops alternatus, Bothrops jararacussu, Crotallus durissus. We also have the coral snake, but we rarely hear about it here in the region, there are few reports. Bothrops Alternatus, we even have a popular phrase here in Brazil. "Urutu, when it doesn't kill, it maims." I don't go into the forest without having protection on my legs against snakes. You never know when you will encounter a snake.
Such a great video Tim! Good variety. The skunk ❤ That was some thick brush on your way out. Looking forward to this summer’s stuff and seeing the orchids bloom!
Aloha Tim! Happy Easter! So glad you were able to avoid🐊! Great pics! I kept hoping to see that beautiful Panther with a Piglet🐗 or a Possum in her mouth!☺Great video!
I’m so happy to see you back in your element and to see so many of your ghost orchids greeting you with flower spikes! I’m not surprised Just Hanging Out took to your move so well because it’s you. I can’t wait to see what the summer brings with your videos, I have a good feeling 😊. Thank you for always brightening up my day.
Thanks for the video. We had a really rainy winter so there was water everywhere even in February and March. The times I went out in BCNP there was still water in places where it is usually dry in the winter. Hopefully the panthers pick off a few of those hogs.
those hogs are good to keep a balance in the food chain, the deer herd had been decimated especially South of 41 since NPS started eradicating the hogs. The biggest myth about hogs is that they're always bad and nothing could be further from the truth. Yes, they're not good for the suburbs and crops but in the wild in places like Big Cypress they're a food source for the Florida panthers plus they've been here for over 500 years without having any negative effect on the habitat.
It's wild how much less furry the bears are down there in the warmer weather compared to here in PA. Our black bears are much hairier lol. 😅 But it makes sense since it's much colder in the winter here.
Missed you, Tim! Thanks for another great video - love the humour, too. I can’t believe you still walk through water after your alligator encounter. I’m scared for you!!! 🇨🇦
Happy Easter Monday! Awesome video of the variety of animals that past your camera. Stay safe. We look forward to your trail cams & seeing the Ghost Orchids. 😃
Are you using that GoPro camera that you strap around your chest? The video and sound are extremely good. I'd like to know more about it. I'm also missing your videos I guess you only post every few months, but I've become a Tim Harrell junky. I've learned a lot from just watching your trail cam videos.
Awesome video thank you. I’m so glad you helped that orchid and did not just let it die on a fallen tree! It shows how much you care for conserving our wild places and the flora and fauna there! Thank you. I didn’t know there was a gator scare in that water… is there a link to which video? You’re braver than me- I don’t think I’d go through any of that water. Great spot for trail cam. Thanks again.
Greetings from a former Miamian now living in the mountains of North Carolina in Asheville. The bears here roam downtown and steal our backyard bird feeders. Thanks for the memories , from a former Big Cypress and Everglades trekker. MW
Always fun to check the trail cam and see who visited the area. Very nice collection of critters in your area. Look forward to more of your videos. Is the Browning your favorite trail camera to use?
It's great to see so many small mammals still alive in the Everglades. The pythons have cleared them out in some spots from what I have heard. And I'm really happy to see so many big kitties.
That's a load of nonsense. The pythons haven't "cleared" anything out. People just say that because they need to drum up hatred for an animal that was put there because of humans in the first place.
They are still out there in overall high numbers, but not nearly as high as they used to be. But it’s not all because of the pythons, but they are somewhat responsible for sure. Anyways, is this camera in area where pythons are well established? That’s something else we need to look at
Can’t believe you set that camera up well enough to survive the investigation of that black bear! He nearly ruined your 5 month video right off the bat 😂
Have you tried putting hot sauce or hot peppers around your camera on the tree!! They have some pretty hot peppers on the market. Might be worth a try! Just be sure you wear heavy duty plastic gloves!! Good luck. I love your videos very very much!! Thanks for sharing! Faye
For some reason when pepper spray is on the ground or other objects it attracts bears, it only deters them in the eyes, nose and mouth. So it may not be as useful as some ppl think. 😅 It may defeat the purpose of trying to keep them away. They can smell very well and I'm sure smell the human scent and anything with petroleum seems to interest them as well. They're intelligent and curious animals.
Great content again. So much water, I agree. So was it just to the amount of rainfall or no where for water to drain into that has caused this? I don't know the area at all. Great ghost orchid tree transfer.
Did you ever notice how the ghost flower is the image of a cowboy? You can see his ten gallon hat, his arms hanging down, his bow legs, and I think I see a bushy beard. If you look closely between those legs you can see how none of his main anatomy was left out. Tim, are you married? We're fans of yours and know so little about you. What is your occupation? Have you truly never run into a diamondback while walking through that high grass? We want to believe that you know things that we don't is the reason you stay so safe, and not just a compulsive idiot. And that's what I believe, you are smart---and likeable.
Thank you very much. I'm not married. I have a boring 9-5 job so I guess I get enthusiastic when I get out in the woods. I've seen a couple diamond backs on my hikes. They are not that common in the swampy areas. Water moccasins are another story. :)
@@ShrikeZoneIt's true the eastern diamondbacks are said to be becoming more rare in many areas. I do love snakes and they're a personal top 3 favorite as the largest rattlesnake, but yes beware of the Florida cotton mouth for sure. They can ruin your day indeed. Do you see any eastern coral snakes ? Thanks for the videos, I so enjoy them even if I don't comment on them all. New to the channel. 😊 I love your name too, ShrikeZone. Shrikes are fascinating, if a bit gruesome birds, impaling their prey on a spike to chow down on. I'm an animal and bird nerd myself. Stay safe and enjoy the gorgeous nature and animals. ❤
You are a man after my own heart. I've only been trail camming for a couple of years but have become very addicted. Which is your very favorite camera?
Great video, as always, Maybe you can raise the camera position but strap a wedge so it looks down some to get the critters. make it harder for the bears to reach it. Have a great day, stay safe, watch out for all the nasty critters.
I can't help thinking that there's a federal task force watching Tim's videos, planning to pounce on him one day, and rappelling down ropes from helicopters. I imagine a 90K fine for transplanting a ghost orchid without a permit.
Okay thought you said Rudy, but you're saying Rooty. ;) You did right for the ghost orchids, good for you. :) Can you put some bear repellant on the camera so they don't try to eat it? Just curious. :)
Yes, it's "Rooty" :) I don't mind the bears sniffing the camera as long as they don't damage it. I know I've been lucky with that camera. The Browning cameras have a pretty hard shell.
20:09 That's a pretty pig I love how people act like the wild hogs are this horrible, destructive force and I'm sure they can be. But people act like they root up everything around them 24/7.

Thank you for making these videos!

I'm from the panhandle and luv seeing the panthers, may have to buy one of their car tags this year :-)
Thx for the time and effort look forward to the next one....

Thanks for watching!
I love the bears. After watching so many of the big brown bears in Katmai , Alaska, these bears look so small and hungry.
I'm in PA and our black bears are so much hairier up here. 😂 I guess because of the heat in Fla they evolved to have shorter and less fur than we have in the colder northern states. Our black bears do get bigger too. 😅
I enjoy these quality videos.
Awesome , Thanks Tim 😊
Once again Tim great video of the real Floridians. It is a shame that in another 10 years we may not see any animals left here in Florida.
Eh a lot of these animals are more adaptable than we think.
Good to see you Tim. Happy Easter, if you celebrate. That Momma Boar looked as big as the bear. She was a big girl. I thought maybe the two big cats were a cougar and a bobcat. But you said panther, so, it must be. Thank you so much for sharing all the critters with us. I truly enjoy your videos. Take good care of yourself and stay away from them gators. xo
We don't have cougers here, by definition, but a subspecies called a panther. Very confusing to many for some reason.
Panther is a colloquial term. There's no such thing as a "panther" as Panther includes cougars, leopards and jaguars.

The spotted Skunk and the Cardinals were cool to see. :)

Love your videos, appreciate all you do to get and post these videos ❤
Been a while but worth waiting for. Great pics Tim.
Thanks again
More to come!
Nice one Tim!
Thanks for another great video. With all that water and a possible gator i would have left the camera for another day. You are a very brave person.
I was holding my breath when you were walking in the water 😅 Those ghost orchids are so special❤ great captures Tim thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for the time and effort you put on getting these videos out for us. You’ve quickly become my favorite channel!
Thank you, I really appreciate that.
Wow! That was a Beautiful skunk at: 14:17~! :) Loved seeing the Panthers, Bobcats, Deer. Awesome Tim. Ty. God Bless~! :)
I've only seen 3 skunks on my cameras in 7 years. They must be pretty rare.
This was a great one!!! ❤
Very nice video Tim. A place with lots of wildlife. Wonderful mother bear and her cub. Greetings from Spain.
Wow great variety of footage! It’s nice to see the bear and opossum as well as footage of you walking through the swamp! Thanks for sharing
Always good to see you and your videos!
Thanks for sharing!
I'm a retired horticulturist. Nice job with the Ghost orchid.

Are there snakes in this location?
Here in Brazil it is impossible not to wear snake guards when walking in the woods.

So did the lion/panther get the wild pig we could hear grunting
20:09
That's a pretty pig
I love how people act like the wild hogs are this horrible, destructive force and I'm sure they can be. But people act like they root up everything around them 24/7.
You might want to put the fishing line loose before the tree keeps growing and cuts the roots on the plant
Perfect
👍
What has happened to your eBike?
Apparently, you are not using lithium batteries in your browning cam. My B. Cams do not show a percentage of the lithium battery life. I have been advised/told not to use anything but lithium. Doesn't your extreme humidity/rain storms cause alkaline batteries to disintegrate?
Tell me you wear snake boots / chaps!
It would be foolish not to. I'm sure he knows about them. 😅
What is it about your camera that attracts the bears?
I believe it's Tim's scent on them. Wondering if he could get his scent off of them, or put bear repellent on the cameras?
Careful, Tim -- scare it off!
Where is brokeback trail?
