3 Months of Trail Camera Footage on my Wildlife Homestead (SUMMER)

[@ronniew3028]

With all the craziness in the world, this is such a confirmation of love, hope, compassion for animals and nature. Your beautiful heart soothes my soul.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

very kind of you, thank you!

[@slukas1375]

Well said. Agree 100%. The amazing creatures we share our planet with!!!

[@lisaa3978]

Such a beautiful thing to say ❤. I agree!

[@pawots6448]

Man your stuff is so amazing, Inspiring even. Just sitting down and listening to someone talk about what they love is so relaxing and entertaining. Love your stuff dude!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

So happy to hear, thank you!

[@eonicarui]

I don't comment on all of these update videos because I feel like I only ever have the same (positive!) things to say, but I genuinely love and look forward to these updates so much. Maybe I'm just emotional right now but this one made me tear up with wonder and joy (and a little bit of despair that I'm not there to see these amazing sights in person to be totally honest lol). Every single one of your wildlife videos gives me so much peace and love for the world. Thank you for your work in conservation, documentation, communication, entertainment, and all the other skills and areas of practice making these videos requires! Even through a screen, it always helps me feel reconnected to nature and grateful for this beautiful earth, even on my worse days. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Thank you for sharing this and for the words of encouragement! It's nice to know that some of the excitement and love for nature comes through in the videos and brings you peace ❤

Thanks so much!!

It always makes my day and warms my heart when I see you have posted a new video. You are living the dream Stefano and I am so happy that you share it with us. Congrats on the Lynx. It's just gorgeous!

Thanks so much! Fingers crossed we can get them again!

Man, how I wish I could live like that. Appreciating nature's beauty.

[@C____G]

I'm so happy to hear about the survival rate of the fox kits this year! That's always wonderful to hear! Your close encounter with the bull moose was really fun to see as well! I'm glad you didn't encounter the mother and the yearling in person, of course. And! The lynx!!! That was wonderful! This was a great big fauna update! Looking forward to the winter, and for you to be able to get inside that hut and get some direct footage! I hope you have a good Fall and Winter seasons!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

So glad you enjoyed it all! And I’m excited for that too. Will be interesting to see what shows up!

[@neildbarker]

Really enjoyed this update and thanks for sharing such a variety of wildlife. Congratulations on the Canadian Lynx as well!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Very kind, thank you!!

[@c.a.parker5036]

So happy to see a new Stefano video in my feed 😊 You always seem to talk about exactly what I am curious to know about your projects. Looking forward to seeing an update on your cascading water feature for the birds.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

So glad you enjoy, thanks!

[@mthurnherr9372]

Can I ask where in North American your property is roughly located if you haven’t said already? There’s an amazing mix of animals and plants

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

I'm located in Quebec, Canada 🙂

[@sherriianiro747]

Hey paisano! How many of us have had a cleared area that was once treed and would never think to plant a feeding area for the wildlife? What a fantastic idea! You do come up with the best uses of your beautiful property without making it look man made! 😊

Always love these updates videos!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@PresSBesS]

Your videos are the best. You put so much time into them. You have inspired me to do great things with nature. I now hand feed my own backyard birds after watching one of your videos. Keep posting great content! If you could post a video about the Black Capped Chickadees they are my favorite.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Thanks so much for the kind words. The chickadees stopped coming during late spring/summer while they nested. But now they're back again, and they've started bringing their young to feed too. I'll probably have them in one of the next videos.

[@dynamoterror7077]

Every update on your gorgeous property (and all the hard work you’ve put into it) is an absolute treat to see! Will you be planting any native northeastern grassland forbs/grasses in the open food forest? Stuff like Symphyotrichum, Goldenrods, bluestem grasses, Canadian bluejoint grass, Partridge Pea, Rudbeckia or Echinacea species, Dalea, Wild Bergamot, etc.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Glad you enjoyed! And yes I will! Not all of those species, but a good chunk of them. For grasses I have a ton of switchgrass and little bluestem. Forb-wise I have 40-50 native species that I'll blend together and spread in parts of that area.

[@tomoudeveldhuis8260]

Very happy to see you and the wildlife around you thriving

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Thanks!

[@bearybirding]

I’ve been waiting for this video for a long while now, and it’s totally worth it! Never stop doing what you’re doing

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

So kind, thank you!

[@kylegage87]

Another great video! Congrats on all your hard work paying off with all the wildlife enjoying your property. And the lynx....AWESOME!!

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@josepsamarrafarre]

Congratulations on your first lynx! Your channel only gets better and better and it's always a pleasure when I get a notification for new content. KZbin is full of toxic content but channels like yours make it worthwhile. Thank you for being so wholesome and wonderful!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

That's so kind of you to saw, thank you for the kind words 😀

[@sigridkingma961]

A lynx! Amazing to have it on camera already! I'm very much looking forward to your progress on the food forest.

[@n.b1434]

Almost like you have your own special Yellowstone in your backyard (minus the out of control tourists of course). Thank you for all your hard work and compassion! It is inspirational and lovely. Your backyard is a safe sanctuary (the Ritz-Carlton of sanctuaries). All the various places and goodies you have for all kinds of beloved creatures makes my heart melt! God bless you!

[@stevenkeller3047]

Thanx for the update. I love all you're doing for the animals on your property. I too would have been excited to see a lynx. Hope to see more of the activity on your land,

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Thanks for watching!

[@rremon98]

Good to see those foxes grew up. Congratulations having a doggo and catto together. Hope(not really) it won't be too chaotic 😂. Also it is good to see animals after various birds. Very satisfying and will wait for more.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Thanks! So far they've actually been really good together. Fingers crossed it keeps up!

[@maryanng8241]

I share your passion for wildlife. I live on Willapa Bay WA and am amazed at the real-life “nature video” in which I live. Right now we are in the midst of shorebird, waterfowl and eagle migration. I value your videos very much.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

This is so kind of you, thank you for the support! And wow, sounds like an amazing migration. Hope you're seeing some new species!

[@NatureFilmsByJohnKha]

Love all your projects and the addition of the trail camera! Very cool to capture a heron fishing in your pond! That must have felt very rewarding!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Thanks! Definitely cool to see!

[@Sisteryoda1440]

So good to see your video - thanks for the updates! What a beautiful property you have, especially as it becomes more and more of a wildlife sanctuary. Looking forward to the next one!

Finally, some more peace of mind. Life has changed a lot for me recently. Thank you again for these videos and the calmness they bring. I really appreciate them.

I admit, I envy your resources but above that, I admire yor committment to the wildlife and the environment. If onky more people with resources do the same, this planet can be a better place for all beings. Much respect to your stewardship, Stefano

What a wonderful video. It was very enjoyable to watch and I can't wait to see how this will all progress. It's actually a really nice challenge, to see how many species you can get fed and cared for over there! And so much beautiful animals.

[@thisisme1999]

Thank you for keeping us in the loop on the adventures on your property. For some of us we live vicariously through your adventures, you do all the hard work, and we get some minutes of entertainment. It is appreciated and you do such a good job of it. Thank you once again.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

So glad you enjoy the videos!

[@neb2813]

It's such a privilege to be able to see these beautiful little slices of your life, and the lives of the many species that live on and visit your homestead! While watching this, I had the thought that you must be the least lonely person in the world. In philosophy, there's this idea called "species loneliness"--the idea of a deep sadness and loneliness that come from human isolation from the rest of the natural world. You seem to have the opposite of that, in a sense: species fullness. You not only know the names and habits of your many neighbors, but you're deeply involved in the lives of these individuals. The care and kindness you show them is humbling, and I can only hope that one day I can show kindness on a scale as big as you. Thank you so much for these videos, Stefano! And congratulations on the lynx spotting, I was so excited and I hope there will be more in the future!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

That's a very interesting thought, and I think it definitely rings true! Thank you for sharing and watching!

[@nicoellis1339]

Love to see the progression of the foxes! Can't wait to see more videos about how you transform the property and more cinematic shots of the changing seasons!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you

[@usmc29er44]

So cool to see a Lynx.

[@aq9714]

I am a month late in catching up on your sightings at your property. i am thrilled you were able to see a lynx!! Hopefully you will see more of the lynx when the snowshoe hare population goes up. So much going on there, it is wonderful that you are documenting it all and letting us in on what you are finding. Thanks!

[@alexburke1530]

So happy for you to have the lynx on your property and hope to see some real progress on that clearing that your planting in. And I am hoping to do something similar since I live in the midwest I want to plant native prarie plant all along my grandpas property and create a Turkey, Deer, and Quail and just all around animal sancutary.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Thanks! And that sounds like a great plan. Creating good deer habitat creates a trickle down effect that benefits many smaller animals. Good luck with your space!

[@PaullaWells]

I really do so enjoy your videos! It's going to be so fun to see if you capture the lynx again. The coolest thing about your form of "trapping" is that is all just done with a camera and no harm or disturbance comes to the wildlife. So awesome!

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

I’d love to be able to see them again. I think my best chance will be in the winter, but we’ll see what happens!

[@PaullaWells]

I believe you are correct. They are easily baited in Alaska so you might try that now that you know the trail they will use. At least I assume they use the same trails in winter as they would in summer. Worth a shot for sure.

[@mssixty3426]

Not only great videos, but great writing and commentary along with inspiring hard work! You do it all. Kudos! Sometimes your narration reminds me of Marty Stouffer on his Wild America program back in the 1980's to early 90's on the U.S. PBS.

[@wirilome]

it is so funny to have the blur at the start of the video and a tease of "and i saw a rare thing i've been waiting for!" But there are no silhouettes in canada more distinctive than the lynx so it's just. obviously a lynx. with its silly tall back legs. i love these videos, they're so peaceful and calming, and in a time when i feel a lot of stress around nature and the climate, it's so reassuring to see nature being nature, right in someone's backyard. thanks!

[@kimberlyyoung4592]

When I came up on this video of what you're doing for the wildlife. It made me the happiest person in the world to see this. you are a genuine caring human. Your voice is very smoothing . I look forward send more of your beautiful nature videos . And all of the beautiful wildlife.

[@kimberlyyoung4592]

that Bobcat looked like it was a young one... prolly searching for a territory of its own.. they are absolutely beautiful creatures in the middle of winter.. their fur is soooooo full they look fatter than they actually are.. there is a dominant female that has been around the beginning of my trap line an ive seen her with pups at different stages an far as i can tell shes had 3 litters so far.. i set up the trailcam at the beginning of my trapline jus to ensure that there was no humans robbing my traps.. doesnt bother me if another animal feeds off my trap cause they never stay, they are usually migrating an jus find my trap by luck... anyhoooo, yes , i love Lynx too or as us canucks call them.. bobcats 😎👍

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

[@kantemirovskaya1lightninga30]

Thanks for the update Stefano! Great to see the Lynx-I bet you were stoked when you viewed that bit of video!! Your fox survival rate is likely due to lack of serious competition for food... Coyotes are usually a big problem so whilst you have them, you likely don't have many who range onto your property.... their range is much larger than the red fox.

[@TheWildlifeHomestead]

Thanks for watching! That's definitely a possibility! I think it also benefits them that the foxes stayed closer to the front of our property where the house is. From what I've seen on the cameras, the coyotes don't like coming that close to our house

[@sporeboar]

Love your work. Kit survival in the city is brutal from my 1 experience. Large cemetery 3 miles from Detroit had a fox family last year. The cemetery is bordered by 3 busy roads and all 5 of the kits were hit by cars when they were old enough to start wondering. Sad.
