the turkey part confirmed that this is quality content

[@loganfisher729]

I had to turn it up because I thought there was actual turkeys and then I got hit with that XD

[@danielhagaman7601]

Best part of the video! Superior content my friend 👌

[@ardianmaulanasyaputra214]

indeed

[@Civvy1]

I was dying laughing lol

[@Garrett9339]

Oh my god dude I'm dying lol had to comment just for that alone 🤣🤣🤣

[@Odd_type]

this is why you're my favorite KZbinr, your humor is on another level 😄

[@stum99]

Seconded - great stuff

[@michaelkoss]

The turkey bit was hilarious!

[@XanderBudnick]

yayy :D that makes me happy

[@luminouslyrics51]

@@XanderBudnick Xander is literally my no.1 KZbinr i hope he's planting trees too

[@rickmortyson4861]

The timelaps with the fire was really cool. The way the moonlight moved after the fire extinguished was really beautiful

[@ElvisDoes]

Laughed at the turkey part a lot :D

[@SuperBriscar]

Man, I gotta say, there are a lot of channels that I watch, but there are only a few of them that I love, truly. I grew up in the country but now living in the city, and every video makes me feel like I'm out there camping too. Every time a new video comes out it just makes my day. Thank you for that 🙏❤ Love from France.

[@XanderBudnick]

Im so happy to hear that :D

[@marigoldsfever1538]

Xander I’m twice your age and you are helping me get thru life during a difficult time with these vids. Thank u. Im learning a lot too.

[@attonattonatton]

Xander starting to loose it @ 5:23 🤣🤣🤣💙💙💙

[@kubilaska]

Imagine you're walking through a forest enjoying nature, thinking you're miles away from any other human, and all of a sudden you come across this man just acting like a turkey.

[@coreysonofander]

Ha ha ha! I was thinking the same thing, lol

[@XanderBudnick]

@@coreysonofander yah me too

[@coreysonofander]

@@XanderBudnick Maybe an idea for a future video? "Behind the scenes" of your next Solo Survival Camping video? Have someone film you, filming yourself. I wonder if anyone has made a video like that?

[@sawyerfoltz3532]

This man is still happy even though he burns all his food lol. I love it

[@BlueHawk350]

Something about the solo camping videos is just so peaceful to watch.

[@TiberiusRexx]

By far the best camping channel on YT.

[@alanbierhoff6831]

XB is definitely back at it! Great overnight time lapse with the moonlight through the trees. Try adding a dash of nutmeg to your french toast slurry 😉 Another super video. Thanks 😊

[@jasperdiscovers]

In Dutch we call that dish a "rotating little bitch" and I wish I was lying 😅😅

[@jeremiahallyn4603]

Omg, your turkey call and impersonation had me rolling. You sir, are quite hilarious 🤣

[@seanvanderaa7978]

15 min vid from Xander = 15 minutes of happiness

[@alannolet3109]

Oh man, them wild turkeys... lol. But that time lapse as the sun starts to come through the trees in the morning, absolutely stunning.

[@ruansmith143]

Man I have been struggling with anxiety after my cousin passed away, and I found your channel really helps me to unwind and relax. Thanks for this man!

[@billyli7398]

PERFECT TIMING JUST BEFORE BED TIME, so therapeutic!

[@jamescanjuggle]

i agree *Resting for the night to the sweet sound of turkey gobbles"

[@brandeezyc]

Man when you propped your socks up on a stick and said "bushcraft" I nearly laughed until I cried.

[@browngosling3929]

I love you Xander. These videos send me into pure meditation

[@noboy345]

Oh my Lord if I saw a bunch of Xanders gobbling I'm the woods I would run so fast 🤠

[@ronniehenwood8580]

Hello Xander, can't beat these solo overnighters. Your hunting excursion in Florida seemed like a good experience, but nothing like seeing you in your natural habitat, in the cold, snowy, pine forests. Those sloppy joes looked so good, think I will try those out next time we make them. Have a good week God bless!

[@doranhudson3960]

I always love the shots that nod to lessons you've learned. Ferro rod goes on a high vis rope, around the neck and inside the shirt. She'll never go missing in there lol Great video Xander 👍🏻

[@XanderBudnick]

got learn the hard way sometimes :p

[@kyleb9719]

Noticed that too and smiled at that, just recently watched the video where he lost it. Great channel

[@bmmmm27]

u have a knack for finding good spots to camp. looked so cool, chill and cozy

[@jondwiseman]

This channel is swiftly becoming my favourite on all of KZbin. Good vibes and gives us people stuck in cities a sense of peace and being in nature. Hope to start my own adventures in the bush someday soon!

[@DiffeRantJeff]

Beautiful! The turkey stunt had me laughing, and the sunrise timelapse was truly art. Your content remains my #1

[@stevenryanesparza]

Lol yeah it did

[@Adamwood21212]

😂the turkey calls! Man your videos are entertaining

[@PeteMonaghan]

Xander is so funny. Love the little bits of humor you inject into your videos. Great work. Thanks.

[@kianr2200]

Love how you include the putting out the fire at the end. I know you’re a seasoned outdoorsman and ofc you will put out the fire but just seeing the half second clip is always nice. Awesome video as always🤟

[@jarroddobben]

I love the shot composition at 10:37, a dialogue with the elder tree around a late winter fire

[@luctous]

This video is a best of the best of why I'm subscribed to this channel. humor, amazing sock drying bushcraft, nightsky time lapse, humor, and good food. Thanks Xander!

[@luctous]

Nice hat too

[@jackmonkeyca]

That turkey bit was absolute gold. It's why I keep coming back

The turkey part was perfect! Thank you for the laughs!

That view of the stars through 🌌

It's a good day when you upload Xander. Nothing chills me out more than your vids!

[@ramblinonandon]

Eccentric or crazy? I don't care, you always brighten up my day. Thanks. 🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃

[@conorbmcgovern]

The dawn time-lapse was brilliant!

[@TheBrinkRE]

I never knew I needed that turkey bit in my life.

[@larrylaughter6214]

Great video, I love waking up to a Xander turkey in the morning.

[@malakhrichardrollins490]

Been watching our woodsman Xander for a while, he's one of my favorites. Caught off guard, I had just taken a drink of my hot chocolate when he busted out from behind the tree in full Turkey mode. Now I'll be spending the rest of my night cleaning off my computer and keyboard. LMAO.

[@lc2583]

I sometimes fall asleep to your videos and suddenly in the middle of the night I hear turkey noises in my bedroom 😅 I looked over and saw that it was actually you. Couldn't stop laughing and couldn't get back to sleep 🤣. Worth it

[@user-xs4pi4ss4h]

One thing I've always admired about Xander is his seemingly magic ability to consistently start a fire with whatever he finds in the area. Loved the turkey Xander compilation! Thank you for another great video!

[@XanderBudnick]

Thanks i get lucky with birch way to often tho

[@adoralago5186]

another great video and enjoyed viewing it,thanks for sharing your adventure.Stay safe & God bless

[@chiefmorso]

Love the positive energy you bring in every vid! Nature/solitude heals the soul!

[@rstainsbury]

Thanks for the nightmares. The turkey impression is going to haunt my dreams, for sure!

[@1998Agee]

Can’t sleep and you upload this, thank you sir

[@LostLakes]

Turkeys yell at crows......I love nature. Xander plays a turkey....I like this very much. Your shirt is very nice....I borrow permanent.

[@XanderBudnick]

turkeys will yell at lots of noises but crows are apparently a common one for them to yell at. not your shirt mine!!!

[@bonpecheur4565]

Maybe Jon should play a fish because he never catches anything in winter ...😜

Can't thank you enough for what you do, Xander! Awesome vid, especially loved the time lapse of the dappled light moving through the trees. Hope you are well

[@ThoughTObjecTMusic]

Everytime you upload makes it a good day.

[@luminouslyrics51]

You know it's a good video when you can see Xander started walking around

[@glarfl]

great to see that ever since he lost his ferro rod he made the conscious effort to put it around his neck and under his shirt before going back to the fire

[@soonersherewego]

Arghhhh I’m just got to work and here sits this jewel. I will post after I watch it this afternoon but I already know it will be perfect and I will love every moment. Thank you Xander for posting. You rock my world

thanks for another great video. l always enjoy the woodcutting montages!

[@EmadAzamyfar]

Loved the footage of the night sky!

[@djgolfpro]

Gold. Love ya brother 🦃

[@vigilamus8672]

You should try stuffed bell peppers sometime, just pop the top on the pepper and stuff it with egg, bacon, cheese, onion and other spices. If you use egg on the bottow and layer it with bacon or hot dog you can just wrap it in tin foil and bake it, boil it or pan fry it. The pepper acts as a cup for everything and when its done you just eat it like an apple or sandwich. Love your videos and ive just subscribed to you so keep them coming my friend!

[@joenabelpeterson8349]

What a treat . Another Xander Budnick video.

[@woweezowee334]

I was SO convinced with the turkey sound for a solid 1.3 seconds

[@JoelTremblayCA]

That night star gazing timelapse was top notch!

[@SnuggleFartz]

Never disappoints, another instant classic

[@mah4i]

the turkey part was the best quality content i've seen in the internet since like 2015

[@santiik4402]

Damn man your videos really touch something inside me that i cant explain ,that timelapse from night to morning was just the best thing iv ever seen,that was like a dream

[@XanderBudnick]

:DD

"They respond with a gobble." Xander is going to pretend to be a turkey. *Goofy gobbling turkey bit* I love this man.

[@kimkimba1131]

First your feet almost drown, then all them there Turkeys show up and cause a ruckus. Oh the sloppy joe sliders...Yum. Then the two shooting stars ... Cool! Finally 💤 Then I thought a UFO was landing but it was just the sun rising. Then the amazing French toast (I think I'll have that for breakfast too). Glad you had a good time. Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@noahwaters7303]

just wanted to share some love from australia! Love the content watch it to fall asleep at night. Excited to see more.

I've watched alot of KZbin channels and I just discovered this one. Finally one channel that means something and with a cutie. I subscribed. Going camping Tuesday. I Go multiple times a year, but I have heaters and huge blankets and air mattresses and mummy sleeping bags in 50 degree SC weather. Props!!!!! Love it

[@lucklassen]

Loved it! Was a particularly humorous one! Ha ha...Keep up the great videos!

[@Neboa27]

I love your work Xander, sending you lots of love from Spain

[@olliegrogan1472]

I love these videos so much man, so calming and tranquil

[@mikesather1345]

The turkey response.... priceless. The video of the moon tracking thru the trees was great. Brother, use manly toast, not that soft processed goop. Seriously consider making your own, it will hold up to the french toast mix and fill u up. Love how fast u cut wood, so much better than others showing virtually every stroke. Like your work, appreciate your humility and humor.

[@XanderBudnick]

ya good call on the bread - I agree

[@cowboy6591]

You make things so entertaining, love your videos.
