I left my camera in the forest and this is what happened...

[@itswilbur3747]

I love that the squirrels are watching... and learning and will one day build tiny acorn cameras and release a human calender 😂

Hi Everyone! Sorry for lack of uploads, life has been a bit stressful. I'll let you know why at some point 😆 I'm hiding just because I'm waiting for a permit to release a series of videos. But anyway, here is the link to my shop! It's so exciting seeing the final design of the calendar. I've also added some cute baby squirrel cards and winter cards 🐿😍 www.daniconnorwild.com/shop

[@fortun777]

@Dani, the calendar is out of stock! 😢😢

[@daveoneill9246]

Thank you Dani. You bring peace and beauty to a world that appears to have gone mad.

Not just Beautiful photography ,also a beautiful Orator , could look and listen all day , Very talented young lady, More please ❤

[@miyu545]

Just bought your calendar, love the videos. In a world right now full of chaos and tragedy this channel has been a gem. Greg.

[@420NEWYcod]

your voice is perfect for nature commentary!

[@gaelanubis]

I changed my Patreon subscription to have the calendar; you deserve this humble little help from me because I love your work. Thanks to you I equipped myself with a lens dedicated to wildlife photography, the Fujifilm 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 (equivalent to 150-600mm) which is coupled with my Fujifilm XT-5 (40Mpx). I started photographing Gulls and Falcons on the island where I live (L'Ile d'Yeu - Vendée - France).

Would love to see this mate if it's public?

[@TheArtisticGardener777]

Just love your videos!❤. Love your voice and accent, very calming and peaceful. And looking forward to your mushroom foraging video!😊

[@montanaylago]

That mosquito “smashing” was very satisfying!!! When I’m out photographing they always get me, little pests!

[@johnryangrinsted6259]

I have to say your videos are basically perfect Dani. Wonderful insights into nature - and how to capture it on camera. Hope you sell very many calendars.

[@dienahfee777]

Funny, I am sitting in my comfy chair, before me, my computer, uploading the newest cameratrap-videos with a new set-up, Coffee on my table, smile in my face .... because of watching your very very good Video. You are a real big Inspiration for ne, Dani. And i will definitely order the new calendar. Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹

[@macphotonatura2274]

Your videos are always interesting, a warm greeting to you and your adorable squirrels.

[@itsmewende]

First off, where you live is magical. Second, I hope you think about including a photo of the squirrel climbing all over the camera, that was so cute. Interesting how you edit, my guess is you really enjoy putting your calendar together

[@williamgray5882]

Being a wildlife artist I always love your videos and your photography is outstanding !! Can't wait to see your 2024 squirrels calendar ❤!!!

[@GuillaumeCassar]

Wow, thank you algorithm for putting this video on my feed, this was such a nice moment ! 🙏🏻

[@paristo]

Very nice to see the work and effort put on to get the 12 photographs. No hyping, no dramatics, no faking...

[@elke1317]

Another beautiful video Dani. I think I'll treat myself to the 2024 calendar. Thanks for the amazing pictures.

[@itssoaztek4592]

I am always so blown away by your photography and your YT videos, it's unreal. Love your work. Looking forward to finally get one of your calendars.

I have that calendar by the computer too! Love the shots of the house and coffee brewing almost as much as the squirrels. Kath

[@johnsnoopyhenson545]

I love the calendar!!!!!!! Can’t wait!!! I want to get 2 or 3 for sure!! 🎉🎉 I’ve gotten her calendar every year it’s been sold.. I have a lot of customers find out about your channel through the calendar!!

[@astridgomez1472]

I only use the calendar in my phone. However, I always carry a daily planner in my bag, and would love one with pictures of squirrels. I’d purchase it in a heartbeat.

[@MAC-op5fc]

One of my friends LOVES squirrels so I'm going to order one for her. Your photography is beautiful and I will probably be very jealous of her calendar when I see it in her home!

[@robinsmith9734]

Well, just a fantastic video Dani, it is beautiful to be on first-name terms with your subjects, and indeed how they respond to your creative wishes. Really though, great work.........

[@mradoku]

Just ordered the calendar. Can't wait to have it at home !! Wonderful video and great work as usual. Greetings from a latin american soul living in Germany :)

[@myrramp2688]

I love your videos and all the photography you do of the squirrels. I recently discovered squirrels in my backyard and since my little doggy passed away a few months prior, I started feeding the squirrels and just falling in love with them. I have named them, there’s three, and every time I call out to them, one in particular Toby, comes running on my fence and comes down to get the walnuts and peanuts. When I don’t wake up early sometimes, he will climb on my screen door and shake it so that we notice him.😂 it’s so cute. I just love your videos, especially the ones that you are caring for Roo. It’s so precious. Thank you for sharing your experiences and photography. Great job!

[@henrikolsen5]

Wonderful to see the enjoyment you have in this. Great stuff.

[@shirleyboy8859]

Wonderful Video Dani...... Your work is Delightful....... I was just sitting at my Breakfast bar watching the Birds at the feeder... When all of a sudden up popped a Big Grey Squirrel... Trying to get to the bowl I have hanging full of bird seed..... So cute.... But unusual to see during the day..... :-)) xxxxxx

[@christopherevans4743]

loving your 2023 red squirrel calendar so looking forward to 2024.

[@sharonherrick7070]

This year I won't miss out on the calendar, Dani! I'm very excited! Also I will be choosing a perfect photo of yours for my bathroom (shower room lol) which is finally being remodeled as we speak.

[@user-dr2js7bv2i]

How great, Buddy is a wonderful model! I enjoy your videos so much. Thanks Dani!❤

You must be so lucky to spend the most of your day with nature. Thanks for providing this quality content. I wish you good luck with your calendar 2024. 😀

[@carlosmojica5621]

I had to order two calendars, one for myself since I love doing wild life photography and the other for my daughter that rescues squirrels since her husband is a tree remover and he displaced many baby squirrels from there homes, she had to go through the trouble of legally rescue them, needing to get permits from the state of NC in the USA to do so.

[@vivianelabelle3992]

This calendar is going to be very beautiful!🥰🤗🐿🐿🐿🐿❤👍🏻👏🏻I want it.😃

[@MatthiasLindemann-hp2zr]

☺It's nice that you show people how much love and work is in your Kallender. So you really feel like and fun to buy this Kallender, and you know what you spend your money on. That you can buy new equipment, and with this create a new Kallender. ❤The forest is fully beautiful, everything has an even color, even the old hut has taken the color of the forest.

Hey Dani, what a wonderful video, again. I am always happy when I see you’ve uploaded a new video 😊 love the squirrels, I have ordered some calenders as give away’s for family and friends. See you next time 👋

Can't wait! Every year we buy a couple of calendars. My partner puts one up at school, the squirrels are very popular!

[@AbDaniel21]

its so relaxing to watch you playing in the forest, great video!

[@TheBioniXman]

Love those reds. My house is surrounded by woods and we have loads of red squirrels around, I can watch them while in bed still! I have pictures of them on the kitchen window ledge eating the sunflower seeds that are put out for the birds. One of them we named "teacup" as he was so small that he could have hidden in a tea cup. Love your work.

[@johnhagen31]

I'm full of admiration for your work and have just ordered a 2024 calendar as a surprise for my wife. You are so lucky that you can trust enough to lleave your equipment in place without it being stolen.

[@cristelelizabethjohn1661]

she can leave her equipment in place without it being stolen because she‘s in Sweden, and not in the UK... 🙂

I just discovered your channel because I also bought the 300 2.8 ii and switched from Nikon to Canon. Keep up the great work! I'm just watching your old videos. :)!

[@KellySedinger]

I'm a beginning nature photographer and I've just subscribed on the basis of this video. I love watching creators and how they approach their work! :)

[@russ1046]

It's just a thought really, but we need a calendar which has the columns (usually 5), so we can see who's doing what when - deconflict work, school and all that. It would be more work and complication but maybe in future you could think about doing a couple of different formats? I do enjoy the channel and the pictures 👍

[@chrisherbert9924]

You’re a very talented wild life photographer

[@bipmix]

there is something magical about these squirrels....for the non-professional mushroom crowd, the red and white one Dani likes is actually poisoness, so its not recommend for dinner! The yellow ones are called cantrelles or kantareller in Swedish and can be found at Trader Joe's or at local markets and are really delicious and worth a try.

[@DaniConnorWild]

I read today that apparently red squirrels are capable of digesting small bites of the amanita mushroom. I’m super curious so will be reading more 🍄

[@marsupialdungbucket]

I'm guessing that these fungi (@12:46) were the inspiration for the Hattifatteners in Tove Jansson's Moomin books :) Looking forward to your foraging video - I'm jealous because where I live now the mushrooms are few and far between.

[@Brainspoil]

Absolutly stunning pictures. Also Buddy is one handsome little guy.

[@terryrobinson4197]

love Mr October, awesome shots, love your vibe cheers terry

[@smithcon]

Absolutely love your squirrel photography! As a patron of your 2023 calendar, I'd love to see a some visual clue on the calendar that hghlights the weekend columns differently. As I am so used to all calendars in the U.S. being Sunday-Saturday layout, I often confuse myself when I look at your calendar. I like the Mon-Sun layout, but some visual hint, like a slightly bigger gap between Friday and Saturday, or any other visual clue, would be greatly appreciated by us Yanks, so that we can tell at a glance how the calendar is arranged. As a photographer myself that often does night photography on a whim, I would also appreciate moon phase info, but this is less of an issue as I can write that in (although it would be really nice to have pre-printed as some other commercial calendars do).

[@reineh3477]

Ha ha, so you are as confused as I were 15 years ago when I bought a calendar with the US Sun-Sat layout.

[@chesterkleinhans4207]

Thank you for posting this. On my birthday. I have been using the tips from your previous video. At a local wildlife refuge. I saw and photographed a mom and fawn White-tailed deer.

[@TheBearDenPhotography]

You've been busy Dani. Congrats on getting your 2024 Calendar out. I'd be interested in a tutorial on how you create it in Photoshop if you can find the time to put one together. Or, if you could point us in the direction where to learn how to do that.

[@datalasse]

I just love to see your behind the scenes videos combined with the superb videos of nature. I will order the calender soon.

Your photos are awesome! That Fly agaric mushroom looked awesome. Dont eat it though. Will make you mega sick but also trip! The cons outweigh the benefits though. I love how comfortable tjese squirrels seem to be around you though. Its amazing to watch. Thanks for the content 🐿️🐿️🐿️

[@MPCmanNL]

I enjoyed the video. I highly recommend looking into getting a proper keyboard and mouse for your computer setup. I have several family members that have dealt with RSI like problems and that can have major impact on your life and the ability to do your work.

Awesome ! Well done ! 👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻

The "I Ho, I Ho, it's off to work I go" made me laugh.

[@DelphiAmnestied]

Squirrels are fascinating creatures. If you hang a line that is tied to trees across the river, they will use it to cross it. If you leave nuts or seeds where you want them to be, they will always come. Eventually, if you are lucky, jays and owls too.

[@DDDELAVEGA]

Beautiful pictures, talented artis, screwy squirrels and magnificent places. Bravo. But geuuurl, 10:51 "you kill it, you eat it" there's now two ways about it. 😁

[@quicktastic]

Dani: I'm going to set up a camera trap to try to photograph wild squirrels. Meanwhile... Wild squirrels run up to Dani to say hi and see what she is doing. 🤣

[@johanmolin3213]

Thank you Dani! Your videos are always eagerly waited for! I actually have used this year's calendar to write down the little natural life there is looking from my balcony in the middle of Malmö (300,000 inhabitants). I will be so nice to summarize and see what birds I have had during the winter at my bird feeder, as well as watching the swifts arriving and departing. The previous years, I've actually had a swift's nest just five meters from my balcony, but alas, not this year. And in 2023 they arrived on the 15th of May (almost ot the day when they usually do, and I saw the last couple on the 15th of August. It's sad to see them leave, but they are fascinating little creatures. So Surely wil equip my family with more calendars for 2024! Sadly, bees and bumblebees have decreased dramatically within just the last five years, in spite of me filling my balcony with all sorts of flowering plants that I know they like. I think I'll try to keep track of them as well next year.

[@DaniConnorWild]

I noticed the last swifts and swallows too 🥺 The world is obsessed with cutting grass. We keep ours long and wild for the pollinators, but the annual cut will happen soon. Just waiting for the last bumblebees to make use of the last flowers.

[@johanmolin3213]

The pictures are very good and a pleasure to see as for example they used to be quite common in the UK but no longer as the red squirrels are nearly all gone and are now replaced by the grey squirrel so please keep up the good work and perhaps another role that your work could involve some conservation

[@woodandwheelz]

I had a monopod that I was taking picture on a river bank in Florida and the end sunk into the mud. In such, I lost the rubber tip that protected the end/bottom of the monopod. Flash forward a few weeks, I was in a medical supply story picking up some stuff up for my mom when I noticed replacement ends for crutches. I bought the set and it fit perfectly on the monopod. I mention this because you could probably find an end piece for your tripod at the hardware store in the form of a rubber chair leg tip. They come in different diameters and colors. Well, typically they come in white, black, brown, and clear. They will still fit on the tripod end even if it's not perfectly round. It'll conform to the shape of the leg. Just a thought. I loved the video and you have a new subscriber. Thank you for sharing and God bless.
