The kids are having fun

[@lesjones5684]

I need some ❤❤❤

[@BillyClancy-b9w]

Those turkey tails are neat

[@kynaturalist]

Loved this. That long log that was lathered with turkey tail was amazing. And the blue ones on the ash tree were stunning. Laughed at the fox poop comment. I love the bark on sycamore trees, especially when they stand out alone among other species.

[@boepperson7150]

I like your vids.Very informative and relaxing.

Thank you, luv your content

Don’t let them get you down. I’ve learned a lot about Pennsylvania and its beautiful places watching your videos. Opinions are just opinions. Stay positive the world needs more nature lovers like you and I dont see any arrogance in your messaging. I enjoy your music shout outs also.

Love watching these. Thank you for sharing everything with us. Happy New Year, Foxy Lady

Great sighting of the bald eagle! 🤗 Hope you have a wonderful, blessed, and happy New Year!🎊🎆🎉

Here on the farm we had a fox that used to sit on top of the round bales and it would poop on the round Bales they would sit there and what's mice come out from under the bales then they would pounce

[@PACreekWalker]

Interesting

[@Earle63]

Nature is so beautiful! Poor little cat. You honor it by acknowledging it. I am liking the song, I’ll finish listening to it when I done here. Thank you for taking us with you.

The stuff on the hemlock is caused by the woolly adelgid beetle

Beautiful

[@theunclejezusshow8260]

Haha Yeah, Fox poop on all the logs. You're swiping the heavy-duty turkey tail logs like I do😅 Haha Yeah, I could never climb those narly Pin Oaks too

[@daleshisler2955]

Great find on the Turkey tails! The colors and patterns nature develops never ceases to amaze me. So nice to see you all getting out and enjoying the outdoors. Hope you are all doing well. Thanks for the video.

[@williamjones-w9v]

Great video! I really liked the swamp and seeing your cousins chasing mink. I am a trapper as well and feel connected to the land and its critters. It looks a lot like Maine here on the coast. Kudos for the Kurt Vile suggestion. I found the song "Check Baby" is best experienced with elevated volume- enough to make the dust on the speakers dance.....what a great artist. Never heard of him until you made mention. Thanks!

[@PACreekWalker]

@@williamjones-w9v I will look that up, thank you! Love LOUD music

[@Steven-c3n3m]

Glad you got away to NJ and back home safe now. It is clear to me that we share and appreciate the same things in nature and life. That is very cool. Bufflehead's are one of my favorite diving ducks ! Some people up here in WI. call them Butterball's. If you find a Pheasant wing laying on the ground again, look for a sky Blue color on the top of the secondary wing feathers. You will know then it is a male Rooster wing. A shout out for the, Melvin's, and JD Pinkus. I saw them this Summer. Nice video ! Thank you !

[@PACreekWalker]

@@Steven-c3n3m It's nice having things in common with people ☺️

[@jeffphillips73]

Just wondering if you got any info on the size of the poplar tree leaves. I have observed that some of the older ones here have smaller leaves and that it was more noticeable on ones that were growing out by themselves with large canopies. Maybe this is a subtle adaptation but I would like to know as well, if you learn anything about this let me know

[@PACreekWalker]

I think you are right! They could also just be larger trees because they are so close to a massive river

[@lairdhaynes1986]

Tulip poplar(Liriodendron tulipifera) is one of the largest/tallest trees in the east. Here in Georgia they are commonly 3ft in diameter near the base and the largest ones ive seen can reach 4 maybe five ft. I hiked a trail in N. Ga. with some massive giants. One of them was hollow and i easily stood inside it. It may have been 5-6 feet in diameter.

[@PACreekWalker]

@@lairdhaynes1986 thank you for responding to me! Now I have something new to research!

[@lairdhaynes1986]

[@jamesbodie9443]

I like new Orleans music. Some of it is so obscure you can't find it on KZbin. A few musicians got together just to sing harmony on cowboy music and The Desert Nudes were born. Their first lp, Keep a M oving Dan , is a hoot!

[@davidmeyer687]

Hummingbirds will follow sapsuckers to those sugar maples and feed on the sap when flowers aren't available. Would be neat to set up a camera on that tree.

[@PACreekWalker]

Mother nature always will teach us many different aspects of life... whether it's lessons of nuturing, giving, sharing or learning to be silent in the moment and listening to her speak to us in her language. IMO. Enjoy your travels and exploring with her. Thank you for sharing your video!

[@guaporeturns9472]

Pheasant tail feathers are quite pretty

[@jeffphillips73]

Today I ate my first teaberry. I hate to see those hemlock bugs, or eggs, those things are terrible. I think that was the most turkeytails on the one log you showed I've ever seen, they are cool, and those wood ear are fun to wiggle. I always have to touch them. Nice trip/ trips!

[@Parker307]

woolly adelgid

[@jeffphillips73]

@@Parker307 Oh Yeah, I hate those things, I know all about them. They have killed perhaps millions of the hemlock in WNC over the past 2 decades. What I see in the winter is these, but during the summer it looks completely different. They seem to be eggs this time if year or maybe cocoons. During the summer they are definitely little fuzzy bugs. Some people treat them and the forest service has treated a few but it is devastating elsewhere

[@edkuklinski4237]

Since you're always looking for new music, my own hunger is incessant, here's a bunch of what I'm into lately, Amyl and the Sniffers, We Hate You Please Die, The Bug Club, Colleen Green, Kim Gordon (Did you like Sonic Youth?), Sprints, Snooper, all off the top of my head, all with full albums for a free listen on Bandcamp, don't know if you know about that. Thanks for doing what you do! Btw could some of those feathers and wings be ruffed grouse? Kinda looked like it to me

[@PACreekWalker]

@edkuklinski4237 thanks! And yea maybe a ruffled grouse

[@reternity777]

Doesn't, turkey tail help in cancer patients? Another great job, Have a safe New Year!

Ever run into any black bears on your hikes? I've seen several in Poconos region.

@@GlensFallsRich haha, yep!

[@Parker307]

Fox poop where you want to sit - The fox agrees with you it's a really good place to sit. That variable colors on the Turkey Tail is so curious as well as attractive. Why do they have different colors? Why do they have stripy rings? They can be in those rosettes too, vaguely flower like. Are insects tricking into landing on them because they see a flower like thing? Why is the top surface fuzzy? I bet none of these have any answers in the scientific literature. I bet we have no idea why any of this happens.

[@PACreekWalker]

@@Parker307 yea I doubt it

[@dannywhelchel4801]

Beautiful turkey tails,it's a pity the Pheasant feathers are just let to lay there,we used the animals we hunt for food,regalia and other uses as tools and clothing,it's sad that some folks just waste parts of the animals when the majority of parts can be utilized and what isn't used by humans our animals have the rest so all the animal is used and nothing wasted,but I understand not everyone was raised like I was and im pretty sure they just don't think about things like that and don't mean anything by leaving things like that

[@PACreekWalker]

@@dannywhelchel4801 I agree. Especially from such a beautiful bird

[@dannywhelchel4801]

@PACreekWalker yes i know me and my daddy used to raise Pheasants,we had ringneck Pheasants and they would hatch their eggs out and when they got old enough to fly and take care of themselves we would release them they were such beautiful birds

@OlympicTree1 Definitely need to look into that more and what it entails . I'm obsessed with trees.

[@BigIronTexas]

I wonder if you're seeing so much moss, lichen and fungi because of the unusually warm winter this year? Like instead of normal amounts of snow you guys are just getting more rain, fog and humidity creating some ideal conditions for all the mushrooms and such. 🤔

@@BigIronTexas very possible. I also feel like there is naturally way more in the mountains than where I live
