This lady knows how to make beautiful videos! Absolutely my favorite channel for nature and wildlife! Bravo! KZbin's best!

[@noodlesmom01]

Agree. Stunning!

[@Nick-13]

Stunningly delightful ! Rowan (Sorbus aucuparia) will grow rapidly maybe 300mm in a year if not a lot more. Apparently purple is the most attractive flower colour for attracting insects, butterflies, etc. Thank you for endearing images

[@BlueFalconJeeping]

I miss Rue!!

[@massimilianospinello2172]

Bellissimo,vivi in una oasi naturale,e tu ne sei la madre,bellissimo vivere in un posto come il tuo,ti auguro buona vita,e in bocca al lupo per la tua nuova vventura,a me sembra un tordo,be,non poteva capiatare in mani migliori

[@daftphil9706]

Another calming video of a beautiful scenic country, beautifully shot and produced.

[@HeedTheLorax]

Bumblebees are so amazing, legs with huge gobs of pollen all over and the still can fly

[@OwenEDell]

Your videos have always been a cut above in so many ways, but the artistry of what you're doing these days is simply breathtaking. Keep up the great work!

[@ElhamArt]

I have watched this video 50 times💗. It's so peaceful, thank you very much. The music at the beginning of the video is also great. I promise myself to travel to Sweden.✨

[@mikaelkarlsson635]

That's a beautiful "Early Summer Film". The best time of the swedish seasonal year. In my opinion. 🌼

[@popsock1]

Highly recommend seeing a chiropractor or osteopath for your back Dani. Thanks for another beautiful video ❤

[@happychappy2b252]

Life brings challenges when we least expect them....glad you are over yours. Stay well. Thank you for all you give us

[@sylvainelouisemarie6117]

J'aime la vibration de vos vidéos et la vôtre. Votre mode de vie et votre environnement sont poétiques. Merci de nous partager vos petits soucis de lombalgies et d'oignon coincé. Ainsi on comprend que vous êtes un être humain comme nous et pas seulement une fée 😀.

[@stuartblink]

Loved squirrels backlit by the setting sun 2:06 Really beautiful footage. Glad you survived the deck and the onion.

[@afternoobtea914]

Just found your channel and it is beautiful. Tänk om alla som kom hit var lika begeistrade över vår flora och fauna.

[@SiteSpecialistsLLC]

Dani, I had a similar back seizure when I was cleaning a shower and was in an odd position for a long time. My doctor gave me a light exercise that's miracle he said that any of his patients that did it 10 times in the morning have never returned for the back issue. I can tell you that over several years it works whenever I feel my lower back tightening up I just remind myself to do this exercise. n you lay flat on the floor and you raise your knees up to your chest as far as you can and then lower them back to the floor so that you're laying prone then you bring your knees up to your chest as far as you can again and you do that 10 times I do it 20 because over time I've built up. You're actually strengthening your stomach muscles which sounds counterintuitive but it's a supports your lower back. I promise if you do this for a week you'll feel the looseness in your lower back and the strength.

[@JaneHughes-il2lc]

Beautiful video, thank you. Great to see Gary being adopted - all you can do with these wild orphans is try to help them. Your love, care and attention gives them a chance of life which they wouldn't have with out you and Juan

[@noodlesmom01]

So beautiful! Delightful to watch.

[@kellihillebrand8341]

Dani, you are an amazing human🥹🐛🐾🌾❣️

[@cindystechschulte1487]

Oh my gosh Dani, I feel like we might be sisters...so much in common. Your films make me cry. You have all that I aspire to. A loving man to share a home with. Nature everywhere to be in. And work that's invigorating...I love photography. Never gets old and always inspired by something visual. Anyway. I really like the parts of you you show on these videos. Be happy my girl. You rock.

[@kartherton]

Thats how you make a KZbin video. Just perfect. Well done. Keith. UK 🇬🇧

[@joerogers3473]

Gary's a bird that knows what he wants... i like that😊❤

[@obiincs]

Did my back in once just picking up a pair of socks, was one of the most painful experiences I have ever endured :)

[@mountainwest3444]

Absolute Great Video! Don't sit in one spot or on a chair for too long. Get up and move around. If you're sitting until it hurts, that's too long. Remember to go on Daily walks - 30 to 60 minutes to heal your back. I had the same problem.

[@steves9908]

Great advice,I need to take that as well

[@Zwiesel66]

Thank you for this lovely video, have a wonderful summer in Sweden.

[@JoJo-vz5uy]

Oh Dani, you’re the best human. Thank you for all you do! ❤❤❤❤

[@HallandBoy]

Your thrush chick is a Fieldfare, they are large migratory thrushes that nest in Scandinavia, big flocks overwinter in England. The parents are very protective and disable predators with very accurate poo! Hope your back gets better soon, know how you feel. We have a new baby squirrel in our garden but only a visitor!!

[@DaniConnorWild]

Yes absolutely a fieldfare. We don’t even have song thrush here 😂 I just made the mistake in the vlog and continued the mistake in the voiceover

[@SquirrelTheater]

When I read the title I honestly thought that the A&E channel was coming to interview you. This is a very beautiful video and I’m so glad that Gary was able to go back to the wild. So sorry to hear about your health issues. Your kindness, love for nature and positive outlook will undoubtedly help in your healing. 🌹

[@DaniConnorWild]

Hahaha that would have been funny 😂

[@SquirrelTheater]

@@DaniConnorWild Maybe, but I would certainly watch it. I really enjoy your channel (especially the squirrels), but everything else as well. Hope you feel better soon. 😁❤️🐿

[@VinnieJo]

Your videos and photography never cease to amaze me! Your compassion for wildlife is admirable. I was so happy the baby bird was adopted by the adult birds. I’m not a doctor; I used to be a fitness instructor in my younger days. Be careful with sitting too long as that causes the hip flexor muscles to tighten. The muscle runs from your lower back, around the hip and attaches to the front upper part of your leg. When it tightens, it can cause severe lower back pain. Stretch those muscles! Look for videos on how to stretch the hip flexors. You’re way too young to have back issues! Hopefully that was a one time issue that can be controlled with proper exercise and stretching. Have a blessed day and thanks for your beautiful videos!

[@merlin5476]

Beautifully presented video, thanks Danni, I'd give an arm & leg to live in a scenic place like that.

[@petergarayt9634]

Ongoing back pain here. Cold pac and a heating pad one then the other, finish with cold.. Yes, keep moving and avoid muscle relaxants if you can.

[@sergeishu5380]

What a wonderful, fogged up beginning.

[@romanstark-filmyifotografi9111]

Sympatycznie się słucha Twoich opowiadań. Filmy jakie nam tworzysz oglądam z wielką przyjemnością. Jesteś bardzo wrażliwą osobą miłującą przyrodę. Pozdrawiam.

[@ahmetcanakn236]

your videos never getting old, they are always gettin me

[@dentReviews]

glad to hear you're ok. the backlit squirrel shots look amazing.

[@MelodiousHeart1]

I love your beautiful films, love your love and care for wild animals, and love the calmness you possess that makes me feel calm too. You are an extraordinary person!

[@TonyBrunt]

Same in the South Island of New Zealand .. lupins are a huge problem in the McKenzie Country and Fiordland where they take over river beds and stop the wading birds breeding ... but very pretty!!!!

[@taputechnic]

It's my first year in Sweden, in nearby Umeå, and I like the wildflowers so much that I wonder why people even bother to grow more high-maintenance flowers. I've made no effort to grow a garden, and every couple of weeks I'm surprised by a new type of flower that appears next to my apartment. I went to Luleå for the solstice, about 80km from the Arctic Circle. I made a point to take a photo at midnight, and there was still yellow on the horizon. It's bizarre to see the sun on the horizon due north. Midsummer is indeed a big deal here. I was told that it's a bigger deal than even Christmas. Indeed, I had a difficult time finding a place to eat because almost all of the restaurants were closed. I also herniated my disc, about 15 years ago, and I immediately suspected it when you described not being to stand up straight. Every year or two, I aggravate it, and at its worst it's the worst pain I've ever experienced.

[@helengren9349]

Please kindly, 🙏 try to strenghten Your lower back & stomach/abs muscles to Keep discs protected. Bend correctly, at hip level, not by bending whole back...👍 Blessings 🙏🕊️🌟

[@yngve-44]

Fabulously beautiful, Thank you.

[@mothmagic1]

❤ the crown. Thank you Dani for a very relaxing video. You always present wonderful material. The deck definitely looks better for showing off the grain. Look after yourself and stay well. You looked the way i would be in those surroundings, totally chilled out and totally at home.

[@ChrisParton-y6j]

Happy to see you back. You made my day (again).

[@lauriefish58]

Hey Dani the gardens are beautiful, you’ve become quite a naturalist! Sorry to hear about the lower back issue, try doing some core exercises, it will help strengthen your lower back and help prevent more issues. Just be careful on how you move, twist and lift for awhile. Your friend from the States!

[@juanitakelly3082]

Well, that was a lovely life and nature update on your summer activities, adventures, and misadventures!

[@Brainspoil]

The beauty of getting older. The most mundane things suddenly turn almost deadly, like sleeping wrong, sneezing and hurting your back or just stepping wrong when outside and breaking your foot. Be careful and wish you all the best.

[@TheMightyAgency]

I should add: turning in bed and getting out of bed. I feel like if cancer does not get to you, it's a win.

[@matsgustavsson665]

Next stop :Impingement 😬

[@AlexejSvirid]

These are the words of Christ addressed to the man he healed, John 5: 14: "Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee." What an unexpected prevention - “sin no more”! Doctors do not pay attention to the role of the Nervous system, which controls all processes and organs in our body. This happened because the deceitful and corrupt clergy of world religions have been disseminating false teachings about the “immortality of the soul” for thousands of years: doctors and scientists who tried to claim that there is an organ in the human body that thinks, feels and controls it, were subjected to severe persecution, even to the point of destruction as heretics, because “the soul is immortal and incorporeal.” This is the word of God, Ezekiel 18: 4: “For behold, all souls are mine: both the soul of the father, and the soul of the son, is mine: the soul that sinneth shall die.” Romans 6: 23: "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Priests brazenly lie all over the world, but those who try to expose their lies are persecuted. The problem is that this world is ruled by the Devil, a liar and a murderer. Therefore, there is good news about God's kingdom: Our Creator, Jehovah God, has appointed a king, Jesus Christ, who will restore order. Even the dead will be resurrected and we will see our beloved ones again. :-) Isaiah 33: 24: "And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity." Malachi 4: 2: “But for you who fear My name, the Sun of righteousness will rise and healing in His rays, and you will go out and leap like fat calves;” Psalm 83: 18: "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth."

[@imacmill]

Well that was a real pick-me-up!

[@mikeoglen6848]

Gawd a'mighty that's depressing...

[@zephead64]

So glad that your recent health related issues were fairly simple to address. Loved this video. It was beautifully shot and we appreciate you sharing your life with us. 😊

[@Dedicated_to_Jesus_downunder]

Dani and anyone else that's bulged a disc this way- if this happens get a bag of frozen corn or a rolled up towel. Lie straight on the floor then get someone else to help you elevate your legs onto a chair so your thighs are straight up and down and your calves are on the seat part of the chair. Then carefully lift up your lower body (hurts like hell but trust me this will fix it if you can muster the strength) and slide the frozen corn or rolled up towel under the lumber of your back where you have bulged the disc. Try to relax the weight of your body onto the corn or towel. It should help ease the disc back into position. I know this as i have bulged a disc many times since i was young and a chiropractor told me what to do in the event i couldn't get to someone to fix it. Its super important to try keep active as much as possible and go for walks (push through the pain because walking helps strengthen the muscles and get things back where they should be) My back has improved out of sight since i got rid of furniture and went minimalist/japanese style. I sleep on the floor and sit on the floor and i hardly hurt my back anymore because sitting on the floor and sleeping on the floor strengthens your muscles and improves circulation because you move position more and your bones go back in alignment better. Beds and couches might make you feel all comfy and dreamy at the time but they are really bad for your back, bones and your immune system. Anyway i hope this helps anyone who is going through this. Its extremely painful and can feel like you are cut in half! If you are prepared to take my advice which is hard at first (sleeping on the floor etc is a shock to the system but after a while you get used to it) you will reap the rewards later on and have less back problems injuries and pain besides that you end up with rock hard abs which is crazy awesome. I am so strong in the core now it amazes me because i used to work out and was never this strong. All this being said you still need to be mindful how you do things after you have bulged a disc - it doesnt pay to lift heavy things leaning over etc. Slouching in "comfy chairs" etc is a mistake because the back muscles relax and its easy for the back disc to slide out of place again.

[@Scott-sd1zj]

As a slipped disc sufferer many years ago I have great sympathy for you with any sort of pain when sitting/standing. I’ve haven’t ever inhaled a piece of onion though, that does sound like a drama! Glad you are well now!

[@walbrzych9975]

Knee pads essential if doing work like that. Builders always use them

[@MisterTee2010]

I am happy that you are feeling better Dani. So nice of you to help rehabilitate God's Creatures. You are beautiful inside and out. Love and God Bless 🤗💖🙏

[@m.whitleyacton821]

Your heart is as beautiful as you are. Good camera work!

[@brianarnoldsmeiring7225]

Welcome back and thank you kindly for this amazing video !! Your video and photography work is of a very high standard. Look after your back. Walking is the best exercise. I am 72 and have never had a back problem because I do plenty walking. Regards from Cape Town.❤

[@KIBERSPIRTSPORTSMEN]

Such girls are a rarity. Some guy will be very lucky! Well done)))

[@MrBlueSky2112]

It’s always nice to see a video from you. Take care Dani.

Nice person and character....keep it up

[@DebbyRoad]

oh Dani, such a beautiful video...! thank you so much🙏

[@helengren9349]

Glad You're back with beautiful photography & that You're safe healthwise! 😍 Please kindly, 🙏 note how You're carrying Your self, as when You're working on something, as positioning of You, as well as keeping Your back in correct angle to the body! Egonomy is the right word...stranghtening "the corset" / = back & stomach muscles, will prevent You from damaging discs. All the best! 🙏🕊️🌟

[@carsonwieker]

Beautiful video and shots, incredible. Cheers, all the best.

[@rpmfla]

Everything I see here is just sublime. Beautiful flora and fauna and skilled photography capturing it. Thank you.

Thank you for showing the world through your eyes... ❤

[@helenmurillo3572]

A beautiful video Dani! so calm & relaxing with beautiful nature. Thank you for caring for Gary & Roo. Not many people would be so caring. You & Juan give them a second chance at life. I know that pain! Take care of your back and watch out for onions! Blessings from Mexico 💕

[@mer1red]

You have a special eye and talent for shooting wonderful scenes. Don't worry about not having seen many pumas in Chile. The beauty is all around you where you live. I enjoy this as much.

[@jamessalayo2803]

Sending you love, Dani and Juan!....we hope you feel better ❤

Wow, the baby is back..

[@mauriziosant1658]

You are a true natural talent. You capture the heart and light of nature😍👏

[@kjelljohansson1799]

HA HA you are amazing. Your snap shots are so beautiful .

[@johanmolin3213]

I am just awestruck by the way you captured the ambience, especially at the introduction od this episode! Some of the best you have ever done in my humble opinion. Having lived in Sweden for 69 years I can feel the fragrance, the sounds and things I couldn't put into words - or pictures - that you managed to convey. I do think that when you do these "small things" (maybe small because I am a native Swede) you really excel. I mean, all these films of puffins, pumas, Spanish lynx or whatever is absolutely spectacular, but you really give life to Arundhati Roy's sentence "The god of small things" with these everyday nature life - and activities - captions! Just wonderful! And take care with your back - it could even be coming from the sacro-iliacal joints. You should consult a good physiotherapeut who could give you good advice how you protect your back when working! Best regards!

[@DaniConnorWild]

Thank you for the kind comments!

[@jojoba11]

Absolutely ma-gi-cal, Dani! Loved Gary, and the nesting flycatchers and even your invasive species are gorgeous! Take care 😘

[@hattyburrow716]

Poor lass, as we get older we must take care. But your fabulous films get better and better. I’ve just ordered the beautiful calendars.

[@pal620309]

Beautiful video Dani, It brought tears to my eyes. But then I'm just a big softie where animals are concerned. Look after yourself.❣

[@darrenbooth57]

Amazing as always Dani

[@lovelinedance22]

Spring and midsummer are probably my favorite times of year, the world and nature are simply magical🥰 I would love to visit where you live, it is sooooooooo beautiful there - love your videos and how you explain and tell things x

[@The8thSpirit]

@DaniConnorWild So nice to hear again from you, Dani! Watching your beautiful bird caring experience. But also sad, you have suffered disc issues with your back. I know this from my own experiences, actually a common photographer issue, always carrying a lot of weight from equipment on the shoulders, often with asymmetrical load distribution on the vertebrae. If you travel, please take care using a camera bag with integrated trolley wheels, so you could put weight off your body as much as you can for reducing burden of the vertebra discs. Additionally, yes, even if you don't feel any pain consciously, your muscles are doing their own thing trying to reduce pain. They get themselves into tight suspension, which is sadly often exactly the way to get things worse. This is why you couldn't move anymore all out of the sudden. You simply don't expect this coming,. especially as a young person. Don't worry. It happened also in my still-young ages. It's not about a matter of age, but of repeated asymmetrical heavy load on your back. You don't even notice much, until it strikes in at a totally different occasion. There is an excellent cure for exactly this issue. I didn't believe very much in it, until I had to find a solution to my own back pains some 12 years ago. I couldn't get rid of it by simply resting or being careful. I never used pain killer, because it just makes the sensorics numb, but doesn't remove the source of the issue. The surprisingly good solution was going to a very experienced acupuncture practice. I was given a 50 minutes therapy of combined acupuncture and cupping by a very experienced TCM doctor. The pain has been reduced by roughly 70% instantly after the therapy. I could have walked without significant pain after several months! The doctor had already the concern, I might need a second session. In real the pain came back after a week or two. I was first a bit very disappointed. Maybe I should have taken the second session at that time. But I didn't have time or mood, thought I would have wasted the money already. The wonder came much later. After the season I took a very long resting period. I felt the pain gradually going back over a time of maybe a month. And it never came back ever again. So, if this experience of mine could encourage you, please don't wait for too long. Look for a very good TCM acupuncture practice in your region or anywhere else. I'm sure, in London you could find any with excellence. Of course, I hope even more, you could have already recovered completely, so you wouldn't need it anymore. But I had to share this experience with you, just for any case you could need this knowledge. Best greetings from Southern Germany! And thank you once again for your wonderful videos! ❤

[@mecker]

What a heartwarming video. Thanks for taking us into your summer. 🙂

[@malcolmwhyte5856]

I've been watching Dani and her channel for a while now. I always look forward to the next video. I have to say they have always been very good but this one is simply outstanding. The quality is brilliant. I'm really pleased to see this channel growing. Thanks Dani

[@sjaakmaasdijk2679]

You create beautiful images for everyone, and you have a pleasant, sultry narrative voice.

[@aebbrooks]

Thank you for another wonder-ful video, Dani. Great to see Gary, and congratulations on another successful rescue! Sorry to hear about your Emergency Room visits--yes, sometimes just living regular life triggers odd and painful problems. Glad to hear you're taking care of your back!

[@jounihaapasalo8837]

Great video like always. Thank you for these wonderful moments of nature. Gary is in my opinion a fieldfare not a song thrush.

[@wolfman3295]

Dani you are a true natures child and a wonderful videographer and photographer (and you remind me a lot of Jonna Jinton and Paola The Cottage Fairy) and I LOVE that flower hair piece! I am so glad you helper Gary and he was accepted by the other birds. So sorry for your back injury and you may need to see a chiropractor of some type if you do have a slipped disc. People swallow pieces of food from time to time and it's get lodged in their throats but so glad it wasn't more serious. Your deck looks beautiful too. Many thanks for sharing another wonderful video.

What a beautiful video! So sorry for you pain and discomfort. I'm glad you are better.

[@kridnnamrrow461]

fantastic shots of the squirrels in the backlight. and when I saw that I thought to myself why do musicians think about copyright for fear that their music would only be used to push images. every piece of music behind these images can only benefit from being put in the right light... So you musicians, release a few sounds and enjoy

[@thomaspowers4952]

Beautiful video!!! Nice work!

[@redblueiris]

I love those midsommar floral crowns...

[@andrewroffey]

Thanks Dani for another lovely video. The cinematography is excellent and relaxing to watch; and the music and your voice is relaxing to listen to as well. You really have a way with small creatures that is heartwarming. Please take care and continue your wonderful work.

[@yvonne5074]

Hi Dani, we just found your channel here in the U.K. We watched about 4 videos this morning. I loved Spider Monkey 🐒 🙈 🙊 ❤. Can't wait to watch more. Hope your back is getting better

[@BenjaminHeinig-rx2tq]

This is a really nice informative and interesting video, well worth watching.

[@anitanagahisa3049]
