🏝️ These Tiny Remote Islands Are LOADED with Incredible Finds!

[@Julianne955]

The bats were seriously cool! Always love hanging out with you two! Have a wonderful week out there!

[@cheltinker7709]

Yay!! It's the dynamic duo. My favorite couple along with the wild man and his good lady. Made my night when I saw your notification ❤❤

[@PaleoBri]

This was such a fun day! The bats are something I thought I would only ever see in a nature documentary, it was so magical to witness! 😊💖

[@largent45]

Holy cow! That was amazing! Thousands upon thousands of bats! Thank you for filming that and showing us that! So freaking cool!!!! And you guys found so many echinoids! Those guys are my favorites, wow! How do you have the restraint not to pick up the broken ones? I wouldn't have been able to resist! They are just amazing little creatures! Love them! Thanks you two for a super fun and really exciting video!❤

[@sherriewhitehead7279]

Truly a great day out. Amazing bats! Thanks for taking us along.

[@conniem7341]

It is so amazing in life when you find a partner that enjoys the same things you do. I love watching you two on your adventures. Thanks!

[@loriecummings7124]

Bats are so good for echo system. And looks as though they are very adaptable to human structures to make themselves a cool Batcave of sorts! Nature is so good for the soul! Enjoyed your video as always! 🥰🙏

[@WhiteHorseAcres]

Such a great video I always look forward to seeing you and bree And the things that you find

[@graemero5532]

Thank you very much PaleoCouple. Your videos are always superb 😊

[@amymclaughlin7373]

Great video guys. Seeing the bats was a real treat! Fantastic footage.

[@lisawilson3759]

Oh I am so happy to see you both!

[@mountain_girl]

That was awesome. Some of the larger bat colonies even show up on weather radar reflectivity scans. They look sort of like a microburst.

[@paulwells782]

Thank you guys for another fascinating adventure.

[@EricWoodyVariety59]

Awesome bat footage and fossil hunting.

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Echinoids are one of my most favorite fossils, and y'all found loads!!! The bats were very cool to see!❤

[@justjoy4239]

Been so worried about you and brea glad your back!

[@sethreid4886]

Thanks cool video ide be interested to see an echinoid sliced open,or are they do soft to slice?it's really cool to see the wildlife dolphin,kingfisher,and especially those bats!

[@marybeth6272]

Another great adventure! Love you two! ❤❤

[@terrylschumacher-levy5150]

👏👏👏 fantastic video y'all. The bats flying into the sunset was the definition of the word AWESOME. Y'ought to make that a SHORT

[@idyllicacrylicsjulieb4328]

Omg, thank-you so much for sharing the bats!!!! So beautiful with that stunning sunset in the background!!!!!

[@justjoy4239]

Great day guys! Thanks!

[@jamesblake7338]

Love the fossils but the bats were super cool! Great video!

[@RickSmith-kp3sy]

That was classic Chris and Bri! Love watching the two of you getting your science geek out on while showing your love. It's good to see what appears to be a robust and healthy colony when so many species are T&E. And our incoming government could care less.😢😢 Thanks for the escape guys.❤🎉

[@PaleoCris]

They are Brazilian Free-tailed bats (Tadarida brasiliensis)! We’re also thrilled to see something thriving like this. They do appear to be very healthy (there’s no shortage of bugs to eat around here!) Thanks for watching the video.

[@RickSmith-kp3sy]

@PaleoCris It was definitely my pleasure!

[@duygukayhanisaskank4915]

@@PaleoCris !!!!AWESOME ADVENTURE!!!! Honestly, it's SOOOO COOL to see you two out & about in a different environment. I hope ya' do more island scavenging like this. Also, it would be additionally interesting to know more about any of the fossils you're finding. Such as the time period they lived, their habitat & what creatures preyed on them as a food source, etc. Photos of what they looked like when living would be VERY INTERESTING as well. THANKS FOR ALL you both continue to create & post for us to enjoy. Best regards from Yucatan Mexico, Ben PS: Hey Bri...I believe your new "buddy" is a Common Bluebill Duck...decoy. They are diving ducks & avidly hunted along The Gulf Coast.

[@atuuschaaw]

The fossils were cool, but the bats were *supercool*! ♥

[@justjoy4239]

YEA ITS BATS! I live in Austin where our Mexican bats come out every night! It’s amazing

[@PaleoCris]

That’s awesome, I heard that there is a massive colony over there! I didn’t even realize we had them here in FL until I saw this. Thanks for watching!

[@johnfrench8714]

Greetings from England, love going on these expeditions with you folk, well done, love the bats.

[@iliketocomment8144]

I’d be off that first island in a heart beat. 😆

[@PaleoCris]

🤣 I also found a jug of sweet tea that did not look old. We were off of there quickly 😁

[@clairewiedman32]

Stuck around for the bats, was not disappointed.

[@Justfollowthecrumbs]

Great to see ❤.Are they sea biscuits?

[@PaleoCris]

Yes they are! Thanks for watching.

[@valiantwarrior4517]

Those bats are awesome. Any idea what species? I actually had an adorable western small-footed myotis get into my apartment this summer. Such amazing creatures. Thanks for the adventure!

[@AlphaGatorDCS]

Have you visited the "bat house" at the University of Florida in Gainesville (next to Lake Alice)? It's pretty cool too, but this is way better seeing them adapting to a bridge ramp lol.

[@PaleoCris]

I haven’t seen them there, but I did read about it when we found this colony. We’ll have to go check it out sometime.

[@millhousemiller775]

I have found some here in crystal river Florida. Awesome channel guys!

[@justjoy4239]

I would need a bucket cause I’d take everything 🤣🤣

[@cheltinker7709]

@@justjoy4239 me too. I'd be so bad for taking um 😂

[@tott3457]

I’ve been looking forward to your next adventure. And the video just started 😊

[@aliceelbradey6278]

Loved the bats 🦇

[@annduke5573]

That was AWESOME! I love bats. Here at my house, in Belleville, MI, we get 3 or 4 every summer and I watch for Larry, Curley, Moe and sometimes Shemp!!

[@melissalease5476]

Amazing that y’all saw the Dolphin feeding in the wild ❤❤❤

[@PaleoCris]

It was very cool! We’ll go back with some better equipment sometime and try to film it a lot better. I think they do it there every day.

[@SherSpirit]

You two are so adorable! And... that was so fun! Thank you ❤

[@AlphaGatorDCS]

more content please!

[@tobitucker8961]

The horse shoe crab is most likely a molt!

[@nanak2025]

Hi you Two! is the water that color because of the storms yet? if you in the gulf, the water is normally clear so i'm just guessing. Mother Nature will repair itself :)

[@Timsinkovitz2.0]

Those bats were amazing!! Seeing them loop back around was too cool. Please do another video about this.

[@crazychickenchica7018]

Oh, my goodness that was amazing! I loved seeing all the Echinoids; however, the bats were by far the most mind blowing. I've only ever seen bats colonies that large in documentaries. Thank you for bringing us along and sharing with us your wonderful finds!

[@richconroy5559]

One of those big echinoids are totally on my bucket list. I always forget when I'm at the fossil show every year to look for them but I only find them polished generally

[@georgegoldtrap5808]

I was grinning with every echinoid.

[@TJfossil]

Good to see you back at it! Thanks for the Bat footage - very cool! Take care, guys!

[@elleisme8565]

You guys are not only the smartest, but you sure are the cutest as well! 🥰

[@thornehauser9511]

Chris I'm glad to see you back putting out videos. I was worried about u bud with all the bad weather down your way. Stoked that y'all are back at it. Keep up the good work.

[@lisahumphreys6612]

I always love your videos. The bats were so amazing and the dolphin too!

[@kirsiselei8703]

U 2 had a beautiful day ❤lots of great finds and those bats😮wow 👋🇫🇮

[@TheStormey]

I am so freaking jealous!❤❤

[@kierstinblaga6490]

Yay bats! Eat all those buggies

[@mariemoss2475]

The little shell you found was from the Euthymella species, if im not mistaken it's probably the Elongata...there are many which are similar. You should definitely go back and camp there. An amazing place. Thank you for sowing us the Bat's so cool 😊

[@thornehauser9511]

When I was little we would find those things and I'd call them starfish biscuits lol

[@SonOfVulkan]

Powering across the water with the trophy wife upfront!!! Winning in life guys!!

[@thornehauser9511]

The bats are so wilddd. They are so thick that Doppler radar actually picks them up. Kinda cool

[@thornehauser9511]

29:31 that's a lesser scalp decoy. Also known as a black head or a blue bill

[@TheStormey]

This is my third comment, this is my first video on your channel I've seen, I absolutely think y'all are are absolutely adorable and awesome I love how excited you get, the baby of the shells are just the coolest! I got to know where you were!❤

[@justjoy4239]

I love bats so I hope it’s bats 🤣🤣

[@dizzysunshine74]

Y'all need to carry protection! That 1st island freaked me out!! Btw is Bree ok? She sounds different Glad y'all posted love y'all!!😊

[@kobblestonemc]

The high of a .5% fossil is unmatched among other hobbies

[@keftonbrown1460]

I would love to do that. Island hop camp fish and hunt for fossils

[@TheStormey]

OMG what beach are you on in florida? I live in titusville, and we definitely do not have rocks like that, LOL we only have Coquina rock! I have never found a whole Sea Biscuit much less a fossil of one! I've even been shelling over in sanibel, I live in Titusville right by the Indian River and we have islands like that out here, I'm going to go check but I know I won't find those LOL❤❤❤ make sure to shuffle your feet😂 2:41 Well that was too funny, as soon as I said make sure to shuffle your feet you explained it to her

[@Canned_beef]

This is where Kyle’s echinoid book will come in handy.

[@kerriwyd]

there definately were brazilians of them

[@PaleoCris]

🤣

That first crown conch is gonna reek...its inhabitant I think, was still in there.... Face it, you like being a gondalier (sp)....😝

[@justjoy4239]

See, this is why you and Kyle take the beautiful women with you!

[@johnlord8337]

Whats with all this black and peaty Florida water ? !!!! Its like some tannic black-brown Amazon river water ? Its supposed to be all clear and clean blue deep water to see down to 70 feet visibility !

[@PaleoCris]

It is that clear in some places, but hurricanes can stir stuff up and also if you’re anywhere near where dark water rivers flow into the Gulf, it makes the whole area a lot darker.

[@lindaleehulsey3167]

I was walking in a residential area and tons of butterflies appeared. They flew all around me like a wave. Think they were buckeye 🦋 I bought a palm size in a store star eckenoid? Spelling oh well. Far out tinybislands🏝🌊🌊🌊🌊🚤🐚🐚🐚🐚🐚🐟🐬🐠🐡
