@@TheOrangeRoad Nah, you just have no idea what you've watched. The man put his hand out sideways to see if the bird would leap to his hand. In fact, if you watch closely enough, you'd see the owner doing exactly the same thing. The bird would have done just that had the owner not been petty and territorial. We're all grown adults here and getting a point across doesn't require one person treating another like a child.
@@Flashback_Jack Let's step back and stop jumping immediately to hostility over his reaction. This man likely talks to dozens of people an hour about his birds when he takes them out like this. We all KNOW that half these people probably reach out at his birds to touch/pet/try to hold them without permission of any sort. Dude's probably instinctively responding. It's not even a hostile/rude tone or action he made. Yes, the cameraman clearly held his hand like a perch for a bird, but at a glance for 1 second it probably looked like a reach to the owner.
@@goddagogeddagabbagool No, he was a condescending dick that spoke down to Leumas and that cannot be rationalized nor excused. If he's been conditioned that way by the constant attention, then both he and his bird should go home and stay there, never to leave again.
Exactly... I've reared many wild animals and released them. Now I have a dove and sparrow ( hand reared both) the sparrow lives outside but comes for food each morning and the dove... haha, what can I say..?? Shes decided life is easier here..lol
The blue dude is chill, even the hat guy was "teaching" him not to point his fingers to the bird but he didn't freak out. The why the bird choose him. Cool guy.
That's about the coolest thing i have seen this year. It's so damn cool i can feel an hint of jealousy growing in me, fortunately it's overshadowed by the sheer wholesomeness of this dude and his bird
It's illegal to have them as pets, period, from what I understand. But this one doesn't count as a pet. It is not leashed and free to do what it chooses. It likes that guy so it hangs out. It can always fly away. It's awesome and that guy is great with animals.
I know this dude on the video. Bird was confiscated by Fish n Game, he takes very good care of his animals but here in California people get upset seeing someone with a wild animal.
I am to believe in England at least if you rear a baby animal that is meant to be wild they may not be able to be freed. Same goes with any injuries. If a adult bird is badly injured and requires human interference to return to full health the bird may not be able to return to the wild because it’s so comfortable with humans it could put itself in greater danger.
@@SMD28101 yes sir, it sure has. But it does feel amazing that you uploaded this video a decade ago and still replied to my comment 🙂 To me, this is a Kodak moment too 🤭
I am fascinated by this video. The shirt, the way the guy talks and knows about his bird, the vibe, the mannerisms, the bird, the location. Everything.
Thanks man, it was a great experience! The vibes at the downtown Saturday farmers market were pretty epic. I hated getting up that early to sell my woodworking projects, but it was always a good time rain or shine. I miss interacting with that many people. Cheers!
One of my favorite animal moments of my childhood was when I met a guy at the beach who brought all of his pets with him, including 2 snake, a few lizards and a hedgehog. After I showed interest in them he just handed my the hedgehog to cup with both hands and literally put the rest all over me to crawl and slither around. Thanks for reminding my of that. :)
haha rad is an expression, tiktok is a social media platform...that is a funny comparison...for me it makes me think of something like...back in the old day "gnarly" was like the youtube of the 80s...nice! Also rad was heavily used in the midwest in the 80-90s. It's been around a while. this bird is totally rad!
In my house we have a family of 10 woodpeckers living in 2 trees, and we always feed them, at first they were scared from us but now they are super friendly and are always keeping us company, we always feed them at specific hours and are always celebrating when its time to eat, its funny because I'm always saying "we keep them as pets, but in reality they are free bird with no cage to stop them" we love them so much
Meeting random people that have unique pets is always a fun experience. I was at a local fair when I met a woman with a pet skunk, I even got to hold it.
You wouldn't if you knew him in real life. Life has a way of forcing you to put up with certain people, I don't work with the guy, I do occasionally see him once a week. A guy that gets Hella up in your business, talks to you like he knows you, his old age and the fact I'm at work are what make him bearable.
He probably raised that woodpecker from a baby, because while it moves around like one (most likely due to instinct or body structure), it does not really vocalize or act like one raised in the wild would
Was great how devastated that guy was when he realized his bird didn't give a shit about him and would latch on to whatever human it thought had food lol
I always think about how individuals like the Bird Man exist, where they have a certain skill or interesting story to tell, but never share them with others
Indeed in most cases but your right only if its in captive, if the bird chooses to stay so be it i guess lol. I asked the Game Warden about this and he said it is legal as long not trapped or caged.

The word Chico was what me check it, I went to college there lmao.
I still use the term rad
nice haha
Ohmigosh it might be from 2 whole years ago, fwenk
The way the guy asks for permission if he can post the video makes me smile because not many people do that, even though they should
?????????
lovely guys
Exactly, I don't like appearing in random videos
Powerful handlebar stache! Bird owner also seems like a super down to Earth guy. Love it!
"You don't like that"
Woodpecker: proceeds to do that.
Sticking beak in chest
That's about the coolest thing i have seen this year. It's so damn cool i can feel an hint of jealousy growing in me, fortunately it's overshadowed by the sheer wholesomeness of this dude and his bird

The little wood peckers noises is so cute!!

Typed in "rescuing crows" but made it here.....You're still in the algorithm baby after all these yrs!!! Love woodpeckers!
I love how woodpecker dude decided to stop the attempts to drill blue shirted dude for bugs before those attempts became too vigorous.
"You don't like that either, huh?"
Best way to demonstrate what a bird likes and doesn't like.
I didn't know Tom Savini had his very own pet parrot! I mean woodpecker!

The bird looked really disappointed when they realised you weren't a tree

Somehow I feel like life was more at peace during these times
covid took away a lot of our humanity
@@SMD28101 facts bro,
@@SMD28101 it was certainly more the reaction to Covid that allowed us to give our humanity away. But of course I agree.
You can tell he loves that woodpecker
That woodpecker is so cute and full of energy
That bird is probably using drugs. My laughing chimney does that too.
A most wholesome interaction
Thank you!!!!

awww, skunks are so beautiful. I'm jealous.
Birds are super intelligent and wild. This bird knows it’s in a good place with good human.
Everything in this video went so right...mutual understanding common sense...and you even had the bird check your parka out

Some years later YT recommendation wins again, that is an super cool experience man.
Holy crap that guys mustache is so bad ass. Love how he puts his finger in your face “ you don’t like that either do you”
Love the video!
ten years later. I am here. High as a kite on some delta 8. 5am.... I love these rabbit holes I go down.
lol that was RAD! nice post
What a great guy, you can tell how much he loves his birds (love the passion)! Sweet encounter, thanks for sharing!
This makes me happy, thank God for the animals.
he is the most lucky man i have ever seen
he escaped form a woodpecker without geting his heart " bored" by it.
He moves soo fast
If I get one I'm calling it Woody. Love that cartoon. I know it's cliche. 😄😄😄
omg man i have a wood pecker his name is woody lol hes my best friend just a little guy he has a lot of personality and hes awesome
It's actually illegal to have a captive/pet woodpecker unless if you have a special license.
Captain Giratina depends, a Pilated woodpecker yes, but this is a different species entirely
I love Woody Woodpecker
@@NealMouse9140 Me, too. He makes me laugh all day!
(Woody Woodpecker laugh)
Fantastic mate
lovely guys
That is the coolest thing in the whole world!
And not a single person has noticed his hat. Dude is probably hard as nails. 👍
That is Woody!
imagine being so swole a woodpecker thinks you’re a tree 😎
Woodpeckers are so cool birds
yes they are
the owner moustache is the best thing ive seen🤣
Imagine that, a pecker has a pet woodpecker
When they say don't touch you know that pet is well taken care of 😉👍
*woodpeecker proceeds to laugh*
Awesomeness 👍😎❤️
Thanks
The happy chirp when he gets his treat. Is it also part squirrel?
I knew I would love this man as soon as I saw he had a crow on his shirt!
He probably raised that woodpecker from a baby, because while it moves around like one (most likely due to instinct or body structure), it does not really vocalize or act like one raised in the wild would
Was great how devastated that guy was when he realized his bird didn't give a shit about him and would latch on to whatever human it thought had food lol
It's all fun and games until the woodpecker starts stuffing acorns in your ears and up your nose xD
Idk what to say! AWESOME 😃
"You don't like that either huh?"
"Get your fuckin finger out of my face before I perch on it, mustache."
Yeah you got to let things slide sometimes. Cheers!
Man's best friend is his bird!
The owner has a strong connection with animals.
I always think about how individuals like the Bird Man exist, where they have a certain skill or interesting story to tell, but never share them with others

Fantastic! Much 💘 for the bird and his human!
A woodpecker is naturally attracted to a peckerwood.
Here before this gets a million views in a few weeks.
I like how they're all like "wow, this is soo cute/cool! :3"
but the woodpecker is like: "Yo whys this tree got no *W o r m* "
That is super awesome!
😃
That is friendly bird too. Doesn't even know people he pecks on, but still does...
🤣💞
Aww, little guy!
What a wonderfull video everything is gre-
*[10 years ago]* 💀
Thank you recommendations!
*Reach out hand to his face*
_"You don't like it either, right?"_
Leave that dog alone.
Woodpecker when he jumped on the camera man be like: “could this be a tree?”
I thought they had actually put a little santa hat on him for a second hahaha
Such a cutie❤️
I love woodpeckers . So cool. Never seen one as a pet before though
Definitely a cute friend there.
Cool video this small video and my whole days stress had gone away
That guy is infested with woodpeckers!
Amazing , I love that you guys love animals !!! Animals are amazing !
“He does animals” huh? With the mustache I would think he was more like Glen from the Village People
Indeed in most cases but your right only if its in captive, if the bird chooses to stay so be it i guess lol. I asked the Game Warden about this and he said it is legal as long not trapped or caged.
trevor from gta 5 sure turned his life around
That bird was tapping you because it *knew* you were full of meat, and it wanted some.
I thought the bird would know human don't like beak stuck at him like owner said? Owner a little crazy
This…. Is…. Awesome!!!!!
Cool bird. Please recommend me 20 years from now again
Acorns are some of the most social woodpecker species so it makes sense he is that tame
Nice, this is too cool. Thanks for sharing this brother!!
Beautiful
that guy is a real life druid
what a moment
