[@Brian-ey2uv]

Really enjoyed this, with amazing shots of the short eared owl, with great music made it extra special, a big thank you, you always give my wife (Val) and I a lot of pleasure. 🙂

Hi Brian, so glad you both enjoyed it 🤗❤️🤗 thanks for watching and commenting 😉👍

Hi Darlin!!! Thanks so much for watching 👀 xxx 😘 hope you and Steve are great and no more leaks! 🫣Xx

Your videos are so relaxing and comforting. I've hit a brick wall verbally speaking that is until watching your mental health video. I phoned mind and they were amazing. Thank you

[@JPLamoureuxsTravels]

Aww bless your heart ❤️ thank you x good for you hun x and anytime you need to talk just drop me an email at [e-mail] and I’ll help where ever i can x I’m a good listener 🤗 and remember you aren’t alone and there’s always help xxx

[@mamnan8953]

You made me cry lol. In a good way. 👍 You come across in bundles how much you care about people. I do appreciate you're amazingly generous and caring offer. Time will tell. My story is as long as war and peace. Unfortunately if I wrote a biography it wouldn't work nobody would believe it so it would have to be under fiction lol. What I urgently need is care for my adult daughter. By hook or by crook I'll get it. Non epileptic seizures. I'm not one for shouting my odds but my sister can. I didn't want to set her upon them but I'm coming close to it. Why do people have to raise their voices for help and then get branded verbally aggressive????

[@mamnan8953]

@@JPLamoureuxsTravels Definitely young man. You are very wise. With the greatest respect to you is my concern is are you able to offer up get rid respectfully of all peoples problems or do you hang on to them. Hope you understand what I'm getting at. Mostly Reiki helps me but sometimes I can't access the realm.

WOW …. this video is amazing. Thank you for sharing it with us 💕💕. Wonderful seeing and learning about the Cattle Egrets and how they like to hang out with cattle and sheep, clever birds. The crowning glory of this video has to be the photos of the owls, what beautiful birds, your shots are phenomenal. Love the shots where he/she seems to be looking directly into your lens … as if daring you to take the picture. My brother tweaked my interest in owls when he introduced me to a site where a fellow placed a owl nesting box on a pole on his property. He considered removing the box because, for I believe seven years there was no interest in the box. Then one day an owl visited and then the fun began. For three years now I have watched two Barn Owls raise their owlets. The owlets are the funniest little things😄. They tend to stand one one leg and at times look like candy-floss on a stick lol. The box is BARN OWL EL CAJON CALIFORNIA. There has been recent activity there and the female is in the box during the day. Looking forward to viewing more of your videos. Take care, hope you, Sammie and Raven stay safe, well, warm and happy 💕💕. Judy🇨🇦

[@JPLamoureuxsTravels]

Interesting about the volume of soil removed from The Jubilee line to shape the landscape at the reserve. Nice to see this kind of initiative being put in place. 👍☺️❤️

[@JPLamoureuxsTravels]

Cheers buddy! It’s been a good few years for prey food imo so greater amounts of prey leads to greater amounts of predators this year I’d expect to see the waxwings redwings and fieldfare about too as the hawthorns are heaving with berries which is all good news for us nature nerdies eh! lol 😂

Quite something to see the owl(s) out hunting during the daylight hours. We used to have a Barred Owl in the neighbourhood, but wasn't heard or sighted for a number of months now...rather miss that call when stepping out on the deck at night. Amazing creatures. Bruce and Otis
