As always enjoyed watching thanks for sharing 👍

[@rockscousteau]

Thanks for watching

[@kevindrummond3979]

Pretty cool thing saving that turtle. I live on a lake in Ohio and see painter turtles smashed on the road all the time. Saved a few myself !

[@rockscousteau]

I have been seeing an enormous amount of turtles on the Ohio river too. But they are pretty scared due to all the eagles.....they always dive in real fast before I can film. But some days when it is sunny...I see 150 turtles in 2 or 3 hours on the shores entering the water.

[@eddielile7177]

Love those artifacts and very found of the squirrel man 🔥

[@rockscousteau]

I will get old squirrel man in one of the next videos. I have baby squirrels all in my yard right now. Like at least 5 of them. They are to big to catch....they are fast. They are fox squirrels.

[@eddielile7177]

Absolutely and they are naturally aggressive by the time they are running around I remember you got squirrel man when he was just born he is a pistol 🔥

[@lindakaysmith]

Another super good video..and adore squirrel Man

Hi Rocks, The bottles look real nice on that ledge. Alright Mr. Turtle, your lucky Rocks Cousteau spotted you. Rescue mission accomplished. Your a cool dude. Later, Joyce ❤️🇺🇸🙏🐢

[@stevenjohann5435]

you gotta take the turtles across the road in the direction they are heading........they will walk for hundreds of yards to reach their destinations.......veggie gardens, water sources, favorite shady spots at different times of day, etc....they can travel alot longer distances quicker than you would think, many times they will just turn around and be crossing the same road again later, because they were headed that way for a specific reason........

[@andymuskopf8473]

This is true, usually looking for a place to lay eggs this time of year

[@kathycallaghan679]

Agree. Poor thing has a long walk now.

[@karensteigerwald3926]

Oh Rocks. Not trying to make you feel bad, but yeah, you have to take a turtle to the side of the road it was heading to. They move around in the spring to mate and know where they are headed. You are such a great guy, I've watched you since the spring of 2020. There is so much knowledge about our environment we have never been taught that our native American predecessors just KNEW! Thanks from Karen, currently in North Carolina, originally from the Cleveland, Ohio area.

[@stevenjohann5435]

yeah, sorry, wasn't trying to be mean or make ya feel bad, just something i used to always hear.....

[@rockscousteau]

Oh its ok.....he couldnt go across the road....he would have gotten killed. It was a big field that gets mowed by huge tractors...and they were mowing. That was by my house....I released him behind my house.....several hundreds yards from where I found him.

Killer Amos!! Great save on the little turtle 🐢. Cool bottle to boot.🏹

[@jessicapoulin909]

That beer bottle was pretty sweet to add to your other ones. I think you gave that turtle a beautiful new spot to call home. Mr.Squirrel Man sure goes nuts for those pecans😍Thanks for sharing Rocks!

[@rockscousteau]

I got real lucky on that one. That was the last 10 yards I had to walk on that spot. I rowed all the way over there to try and find a bottle too.....I was happy to find that. At least I got 1

[@jessicapoulin909]

@@rockscousteau I'm glad you did my friend🤗

[@kevanhoover4642]

More cool finds and saved a turtle . I've saved a few myself over the years.

[@rockscousteau]

Yea....I always try and stop. This was close to my house.....I just saw him when i was getting home. He is lucky that is for sure. That is a busy road

[@Ayerlooms]

Another great video

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Love that Amos point, I agree, it's worthy of restoration. And the river bottles are awesome! Old Squirrel Man is wolfing his pecans! Thanks for saving Turtle Buddy!!!💖

[@rockscousteau]

Sooner or later I will find one like that with both barbs. Last few weeks most everything has been busted that is nice in one place or another. I will probably go up the river this week and get on some spots where I have a chance at 3 or 4 nice points per trip. Try for some of those nice bird points

[@rockscousteau]

Hope you are doing ok

[@JD-ps6od]

Squirrel Man is killing the pecans. That brown bottle is outstanding! It’s cool that you can get out looking for points, but still have a chance at other awesome finds at the same time. Oh yeah, I saw you found another critter too. Enjoyed the video! 👍🇺🇸

[@rockscousteau]

He would just eat like 10 pounds of them I think...he is a machine

[@Swamp-Fox]

Kudos for helping the turtle. Congrats on the nice Amos. Glad you were able to find some pecans for the Squirrel Man.

[@rockscousteau]

Thanks 👍

[@angelamillard6418]

Love the Amos point!! Beautiful! I've always noticed how animals seem to find you, that turtle was a lucky guy! Wonderful to see squirrel man

[@rockscousteau]

Thank You...to bad the ear ding....but it will look good restored. That would have been a 6month maker at least if not for the daage

[@tarrasams7423]

Hello 👋 from New York those Beer Bottles you found are an amazing find Squirrel man 🐿 Really loves those Peacans Thank you for bringing me along with you I can't wait to see what you find next 😀 😊

[@rockscousteau]

Thanks 👍 I just still do not understand where the bottles there are coming from. I find a few of them there a month. 9/10 are just super condition like this one......this is that same place. Down further I find more bottles...older ones.....on the other side of the creek. I found real nice arrowheads down there as well. But where the stuff is up in the bank I am lost. If I could find where it is...it has to be one heck of an old good dump.

[@tarrasams7423]

@@rockscousteau Yes it probably is a really nice dump with with the age of those bottles it's probably between the 1800s and the 1900s too bad you couldn't find that old dump if you look you might be able to find it 😊

[@wickerman9569]

Really nice finds love the beer bottle.

[@rockscousteau]

Thanks 👍 I bet the people drinking that had a good time....there must be a bunch of those on that bank someplace. I have found more of those there than what I show in the video.....Id say at least 25 of them. But I cannot figure out where the stuff is coming out of the bank....I even probed in there someplace. There is a dump someplace...I found a nice milk bottle there...some old food product jars that were 1890's.....a really rare mason jar.....if I can find the dump...it will be mind blowing. I just cannot locate it yet

[@Tealtra]

Squirrel man is looking so much better. So glade he is turning around for the better. Wonder what they eat in the wild with high levels of calcium? Congratulations on the new point. Love those heavily embossed bottles too.

Nice box turtle save! I got one off the road a couple of weeks ago. Would've have been killed for sure. Sweet point and old beer bottle also ⚡⚡✌

[@rockscousteau]

The one good thing....I am seeing lots of turtles again. There for a long time....YEARS...i did not see any at all. Now they seem to be bouncing back in numbers. I will have to look up and see if their nmbers did drop there for a while....it seems to me that they did. I remember always seeing them in the 1980's.......then....it was like right around 2000 I stopped seeing them...and really dont remember seeing any since then. Until this year.

[@horaceburgess9256]

You did it. Another Amos laying out.

You send me one of those beer bottles, I’ll tumble polish a couple for you & send them back? Really nice finds, wish I had a river like that close to me. I would love to do that.

[@Ayerlooms]

Good deeds done.

[@artifactsandbigracks3999]

I'm liking the dark color of the WV beer bottle . Nice point ✌️😎 even with the Barb damage. Dude because of the coat of everything many farmers are either not plowing or they subcontracting the work out to industrialized outfits. No till . Some are talking of selling out and quitting all together because they can't hardly make a living from it any longer . Needless to say I've had better spring seasons.

[@rockscousteau]

Yea....I went to a place today to walk a field....all no till now. There is one field to look close to my house....and it just sucks......all the good fields here are now full of houses. There are some fields in Marietta....but they wont let anyone hunt.....that is how it is here.....if there is a place...chances are unless you know the people....you are screwed. it would take 10 years of asking to get a few places to hunt here.

[@rockscousteau]

Pretty soon there probably wont be anywhere to hunt.

[@c.m.r.artifacts84]

Right on rocks. I stop for turtles also. I try to put them as far off the road as possible.Might have been going to lay eggs. They come to my garden and nest. I have pics and video of them digging holes to lay eggs. Two of them at one time about 15 ft. from each other last year. I've had some great stuff happen on my property in the last couple years.

[@garypowell9577]

Love your videos, would love to hunt with you,were in Darlington pa!! Happy hunting, save as much as you can, once its gone its gone!! Good luck

[@rockscousteau]

I think there are probably so many bottles in the ground like this wheeling one......we just have to find them. I bet you have a big town dump full of marbles over there someplace. All the trash from 100 years ago has to be there someplace

Thank you! Cheers!

[@darewoIf]

I was out creeking during yesterday's storm- I found a few prospects where I'll have to go to dig around. Mostly found some chunks of worked flint, but it looks promising.

[@rockscousteau]

You will probably find some stuff there regardless. I pretty much find something in about every creek if I just keep going back and walking it. You may even get onto a good dump....I have found some of my best dumps walking creeks just looking for old broken glass. Then up in the bank start finding nice bottles

[@darewoIf]

@@rockscousteau The best-looking point I had ever found there was lost in the water when I handed it to a friend of mine... I still think about it even though it was almost 10 years ago. It was a kentucky clovis point like I had never seen before.

Awesome 👌

[@rockscousteau]

Thanks 🤗

[@donaldross8597]

Great job nice day bottle and point. I noticed there’s some things that you do when your arrow hunting that you don’t make mention of and I copied the habit of you picking up all the pieces of flakes of Flint and to my surprise several times what looked like pieces of Flint or shippings were actually arrowheads it was just the way they were covered up made him look like a piece so that’s worked out for me well and Linda say almost have a gallon now of chips or flakes

[@DIGGING.DISORDER]

Awesome information. I have a high spot I've located that almost devoid of flake, the few fired rock are crumbled up bad and the only points I have ever found on it are the big stemmed style, whatever those are called. That one you found is pretty sick, barb or not. GL&HH 🍀

[@rockscousteau]

I have odd places like that too. Some places are all fired rock on the river....and you have to do 10 screens or more for 1 flake of flint......and every once in a while I find a point laying out. I go to some places like that often even though I dont find much because when I do....it is usually something super nice. You can even get into places where all the fired rock is colonial.....or even more modern from fishing camps and places like that. If you dig a trench on the place you think is the best.....3ft deep.....then excavate and screen off of that.....you will be able to tell what is there. You will know how good it is if you walk around say every 15 yards and do a test pit....dig like a 2 ft wide x 3 ft deep hole and sift it all. If there are more than say 10 flakes of flint......you are on a pretty good site. I do multiple holes like that.....then start digging where I got the most flakes from the test hole. If you do a hole and get hundreds of flakes......that is what you want. Then you know you are on a workshop site.

[@jimidunlap8919]

Yes saving turtles is a life style. Ill pull my car over to help any animal let alone the 20 or so turtles ive saved.

[@Ayerlooms]

Hey man did you know a box turtle mates with same mate for life and only live in a very small area and meet in same spot. They will die trying to find that spot and should never be moved. Not sure if that’s true but a warden told me that years ago

[@rockscousteau]

Well I found him like close to my house.....and released him behind my house......so he should be ok

[@clivejameston7557]

It's a sort of box turtle. It is male, due to the bottom of his shell being concave.

[@marykaystreasures]

wow what a nut on that bottle

[@jedsteelwell2354]

Hope that leg on El Chapo mends

[@pamcolechadwell1302]

I would get something and sift that river and bank. you could cover more ground per say.

[@underdiggeroakley2903]

Box turtles live in the same small area there entire life . You should always try to let them go in the same area they are found.

[@underdiggeroakley2903]

I wasnt far from my house....when I found him....so he wasnt that far at all from where I found him

[@yootubesnake]

Haven't seen the Mokai out since you bought it. Everything okay?

[@rockscousteau]

Yea....I just find sites with it man......I will maybe use it 1 or 2 times a year. I would rather row my kayak. It is easier and all i do is stand in one spot all day and sift. Find the spots with the mokai.....then just drive to them and put in the kayak. That is how I do it. It is faster.

[@rockscousteau]

I doubt I take it out all summer. I have like 20 places to go sift.....so it is pointless

[@davidcrouse6670]

You're not doing the turtle any favors taking him somewhere he isn't familiar with. Has no clue where he's at now or where to find food... Take him to the side of the road he's headed to and leave him be. Probably gonna stave to death now.
