Encounters With Nature Around Thirteen Island Lake

June 5th, 2024
The dogs and I walk portions of Bunker Hill Road and Deyos Road around the northeast end of Thirteen Island Lake. The days is warm, calm and humid with temperatures ranging from 20-27C. The birds are active and singing and we are lucky enough to encounter a few local residents up close and personal.

Now, including more mini profiles of some of the animals and plants you encounter on your nature hikes is a great idea! Love these mini biographies, as we can learn more about nature. I've learned a great deal from your wealth of knowledge, in this regard. Plus, identifying so many plants and animal species you come across, is much appreciated. View count isn't too bad either!

So far it’s been a chilly and wet spring in central Alberta!

Is that right eh? We’ve had both cool and damp and warm and dry. This week we go into hot and dry. Hopefully the dry part won’t last too long. 😊

WOW! Beautiful thumbnail, intro, music, and video! Your thumbnail choices are gorgeous. They always stand out in my TH-cam video feed.
Do you remember when I mentioned to you, once you reached 1,000 subscribers, a new algorithm would start? Look how quickly you made it to 1,100 subs. I suggested to you, you would have great appeal to viewers. An excellent host, with great topics.
Plus, this road doesn't have a proper gravel shoulder for you walk safely on.
Thank you very much for this pre-weekend treat. Your videos always inspire my creativity, and love for the outdoors. Thank you Todd! Pat

Thanks Pat! Yes the subs. are moving along well it seems. My views per video however are still pretty low. Usually less than 100. Which is not great. I realize that my hiking videos are rather boring for many people and so I try to add more interest to these or include other types of videos.
