Matador bug walking around with friends
Saw this matador bug earlier today and filmed it but it didn't move. I went out several times throughout the day to film it again and caught it moving around. There's a green and black bug to its bottom left which is hard to see but I don't know what it is. Has lumpy antennae. If you know, chime in. Another flying bug showed up on the flower too which is really colorful (also unknown). So many things love passion vine. Tons of caterpillars were all on one leaf (why they didn't just spread out I don't know...safety in numbers?) munching away until they move onto the next one.

Matador Bug on Passion Flower in Panama
Просмотров 9614 дней назад
Noticed this gorgeous bug on the passion vine first then lost sight of it. Went out later to find it right in front of me on this flower that had only just opened in the time I'd been away. Now I know where to look! They apparently wave their legs around like flags but it isn't to attract a mate according to the Smithsonian.
Baby Chipmunks Exploring the World
Просмотров 45Месяц назад
I looked out over my balcony today and saw a bunch of baby chipmunks! I don't know if this was their first foray out in the world because I think I would've noticed them before. I was able to go downstairs and film, then by the end of the video I was a couple feet away. At 2:43 mark, one pulls on the other's finger. At the 6:50 mark, mom shows up with full cheeks and one baby follows her. That'...

Newt Mating Dance
Просмотров 285 месяцев назад
I went to see the newts and got a show! Here are a few different techniques I caught on camera. There were many of them doing this mating ritual. I did not know that male newts lack a penis. This description was taken from livescience.com: Newts breed in water and males don't have penises to impregnate females internally. Instead, male and female newts have an orifice called a cloaca, which lea...

I finally caught both of them together and they are male and female! The female's red crest does not go down to her beak (she's on the hanging feeder).

The large pileated woodpecker has decided it was easier to stand on the rail and eat than to hang on the wire basket! Check out those feet...looks like iguana toenails!

Lots of padymelons around in the park. They're pretty quiet, you have to look for them but you can usually see them during your walk close to the trail.

Platypus in Maleny, Queensland
Просмотров 72Год назад
Some footage of the cute platypus in Maleny at the viewing platform, a short walk from town. Was active in the morning and even mid afternoon (3ish). Also at dawn (was told it was also seen by the bridge/boardwalk by the cafes & shops). Can get down close to the water to get better photos/videos by going under the bridge along the footpath.
Maleny Platypus Compilation
Просмотров 21Год назад
Ok, a professional filmmaker, I am not. But this is the best I could do over a period of three days in Maleny at the platypus viewing platform. This is tricky as the platypus are constantly moving and only come up for air for a few seconds before disappearing again. There was only the one there, but hey...when do you ever get to see these in the wild!? I feel very fortunate. So those who can't,...

Wow! There are so many of them! Are there always that many in that spot or were they migrating or something? (sorry, I'm from the Northern East Coast USA, we never see things like this) ☺ 🦊
Hi, sorry for the late reply I wasn't notified of it! I'm not sure, I live in NZ and was just visiting. But typically they hang out in the same place all the time unless they find a better tree...seemed pretty normal for everyone that was around, so I'm guessing they're always there.
What is "Dory" ?
Dory is a fish ;-)
How long can you keep the liquid after harvesting? Can it be frozen? Do you need to refrigerate it? I have much liquid and many plants, but they die off in winter, so I would like to be able to save some in jars. Does it spoil?
Hi sorry for the late reply here. I'm sorry, I have no idea...you should be able to google that though.
Wow! They are small!! But so cute! 😌🤍🥰
Holy cow!
They’re so tiny. Omg I had no idea they could b that small
Oh my gosh, they are so tiny!

Yummy fruits! Hello there! New friend here supporting
Thanks and welcome!
We call it pottigel in Jamaica 🇯🇲
Oh cool, thanks for that, didn't know!
Looks like the energy pool for the mages that flunked out on "The Witcher".... Cool... be careful, they might get you!
I definitely wouldn't want to get bitten by them that's for sure!
That's creepy.... how is he not getting stung in the hands while being that close? Are they on thorazine?!
Sorry only just now noticed this was held for moderation!! Bees are pretty chill as long as you aren't making them mad, they have no reason to sting. He used some smoke beforehand as well.
Wow! Did he find the queen?
Hah only just saw this needed replying to! Sorry!! I can't remember now but I'm sure he did.
Those a Costa Rican wandering spiders. Real venomous
I have them for sale. You can use a Strainer to get the bugs out great video thank you for sharing
Happy Birthday! I feel like that seal does... just wanna lay around! Hope you had a great day!
Thanks, T...a year later haha. Have to try and make them memorable somehow!
This is gonna pop up in peoples recommended soon
This is my top go to PLANT for lotion. It starts out slimy for a handful of seconds then absorbs and dries to a gorgeous soft silky feel. Lightly fragrant and I am so glad I grow it.
Where do I buy this plant?
Hi Amber, not too sure...you can google it with the name of your town/state/country since I don't know where you live and see if any nurseries have them or can ship to you.
Ebay
What a racket! Lucky you, to see such a sight.
Clay? oam? how long to grow? what do i need? ive only got 1 seed. one little seed
No idea, mate...just google it.
@@StephDeLaGarza having such a hard time finding info on it. even my seed carrier is out. and confused. *shruggies*
How did it go? What did you try in your location? I was thinking rich well draining soil? Sunny warm location? Keep moist but not soaking wet?
Has anyone tried eating these roots from this plant? They smell mildly of regular ginger, to me. Thanks.
Good question...It is a ginger plant so I don't see why not. I actually don't recall if I had used any back then. However, a quick google search said that ornamental ginger, like this shampoo plant one is bitter and not worth eating. Learn something new everyday!
@@StephDeLaGarza Thanks, Steph. I think I'm going to just have to try it and find out for myself. I just got done digging a bunch of the roots up, today, clearing an area to plant flowers, this spring. Man, these roots are prolific, too, and big, and they look almost just like "regular" ginger. They smell quite nice, so, maybe they won't taste too bad, lol. I'll find out and try to let you know. And sometimes "bitter" things, eg. "bitter almonds, bitter apricot seeds, etc. are very good for you - containing amygdalin / Vit. B-17, a mild and non toxic form of cyanide if eaten in moderation that kills cancer. #rawapricotkernals / #B17 / #amgdalin.
Lambs are the most gentle, pure, innocent, simple, peaceful little animals that there are. Thank you for being so kind and loving to this wonderful lamb. It really hurts me how so many other innocent peaceful little lambs just like this one are being mistreated and slaughtered. How could these animals ever deserve that just for something for us to eat, when there are millions of other things in this world for us to eat? We need more people like you treating them with kindness, love, and keeping them safe
Bahahahahaha then ending made me jolt a little.
Joy personified!!!!!
Thanks for posting. Every time I see a regal tang it is in a aquarium. This is the only video I have found of one swimming in its natural environment!! Thanks Again for sharing!!
Hello glad I found u. I'm a new subscriber i have had my awapuhi plant for 4 years and have not had a bloom yet can u help me and tell me what i need to do to get blooms
Sorry, no I have no idea...just google it ;-)
Amazing. Wonder how she gets back down. That sure is a big climb for a small girl!
Endless steps. But she persevered.
Very adorable animal. Thanks for sharing this. Thumbs up!
She is getting big! What was that oops about?
I've never seen anything that cool!
Nice. Thanks for sharing!
It's a double whammy!
Watching this, I'm reminded first of an anteater, then a vacuum cleaner, and finally, an elephant. And look at those eyes!

Even though less than half of 1% carry the rabies virus its still a chance you dont want to take..PLEASE do NOT touch a bat if you come across one. Call your local wildlife rescue or bat rescue. You can contract rabies from a bat by simply touching it and you happen to have a small cut on your hand the saliva from the bats skin can enter your wound. It can take 8 to 10 days for any animal to exhibit symptoms of rabies and its not like in the movies where every one of them is foaming at the mouth and acting mad. You may not notice the poor animal has the virus. If you see a bat on the ground during the day it means something is wrong so please call a professional.
Good advice, thanks.
@@StephDeLaGarza thank you
I was watching another video that said that you aren’t supposed to cut these flowers. It is more practical to squeeze the shampoo juice into a jug and leave the plant in the ground because it will fill up with water if left in the ground.
Yep, I'd agree with that. I cut these for demo purposes and to have as a bouquet around the house.
You could use a nut bag and also start with less water till all the ingredients are blended. Then add more water
True, thanks for the suggestion!
Wow, I just came across your channel, and I have to admit, along with experiencing fascinating snippets of what seems to be your free and jovial life, and learning about the world through your eyes, it's quite a lovely bonus to recognize how stunning you are, too. Your smile shines through brightly and really shows how a life lived confidently and excitingly is immediately beautiful. Seeing someone as lovely as you are really puts in perspective how we should spend time finding and being with the great people of this world. Thank you for making my day, hopefully I can get get your book and scratch it off the reading list
Great footage! Beautiful creatures, so misunderstood!
I have never seen one, to my knowledge Astrostole scabra doesnt go any further north than New Plymouth.
I grow this plant profusely in very dry, sandy soil. They get very little water and still produce the cone flowers full of juice.
Cool...thanks for chiming in! Wish I was still around those...don't have them in New Zealand.
We live in south Mississippi, USA where there is lots of rain and a subtropical climate. But there are times when we have drought like conditions and intense heat. The ginger plants are in part shade/part sun and most of the time high and dry. I am just about to harvest the cones and plan to use the juice combined with Dr. Bonners Castile Soap for shampoo. I do not like the Castile by itself, but I am hoping this will improve the shampoo by adding the juice. The scent is incredible!
Wow sounds great...good luck!!
It's an type of melon
Beyond cute! Love the white tuft on little blackie's tail. Sheer delight!
Looks like a dirt runway. Did you cry when you touched down? I nearly did just watching the video. Awww..... Belize
