The majority of clips on this channel are the work of Howard Jackson and Peter Clarke. The videos cover urban wildlife, (reptiles, birds and animals) sustainability, lots of bees and converting pools into ponds.
I have kept the details from your videos so that I can reach out to you via email as I would like to bring a native hive to my flower farm located near Mogo on the NSW South Coast.
That's exactly the size of my pool 20x40 and 9 1/2 ft deep at the one end. So thanks for answering that it isn't too big. I'm only at the beginning of this journey but I think it's a great idea!
same! We needed a new liner and instead of turning into a huge swimming pool for two people (that's so much water and chemicals for just us), we're going to turn it into a pond! :) good luck!
Love this idea. Question please. I live in BCS mexico and was wondering about putting rocks in the bottom forcdecoration and ledges. Is this possible or would it create problems.
Hi I’ve just watched this video and not too sure what was the purpose of the “retro” fit, is it for extra insulation? Could quite follow it on the video Thanks Al
1. Turn off the music. Another video RUINED with MUSIC NOISE. Is there any purpose whatsoever, to add extra noise to an animal video? None. 2. This is about the bats, not humans. We see two talking heads 85% of the time, with short glimpses of the bats. Is this yet another Narcissistic channel? Its not about you. Show the bats, don't photo b*omb. We can hear your voice, but don't need the camera on the faces. Show the bat, not the man. Very poor camerawork and audio. Show the bat. Sound the bat. Keep humans and music out of animal videos!
Maybe... people need just to install those different habitats( hotels) ...and lots of flovers ... So... if there are natural bees there in the Area ... they will find them. ...instad of bying ... and introducing somthing new. Nice series. Thenks. I am making bocks with holes tomorrow !
I’m in the San Francisco Bay Area, USA. I’ve stopped chlorinating as of last October- (it’s August 2023 now). I have wrigglers. I’ve put in pond plants and they’re thriving. The water is very green. Do I turn on the filtration system? What will happen when I do that? It is a large pool, 20x40 and five feet deep at the lowest point, three feet deep at the shallowest. (Deepest in the middle) plants= Lillie’s, floating hearts, Thalia, Dwarf papyrus, parrots tail and red variegated reed.
Super interesting! I have an unground pool that is just costing us a fortune and we barely use it. I am neck deep in research for how to turn it into something for sustainable. I love this idea! Thank you!
People love the flying foxes, but as someone who studies bats for a living, I see them almost as an entirely different kind of animal from microbats. I love the tiny little bats very much. They’re little flying gremlins who just want to help get rid of insects.
Pools are some of the biggest polluters we involve ourselves in. A lot of ppl near me have a pool and treat it with chemicals and never even use it. Such a waste. More ppl should embrace the pond idea. They're so much more interesting.
This is marvelous! I just bought a property with a pool and the bills are insane and I detest the chlorine. I would love to create a habitat like this I'm doing it!
I hope you are still around, love your videos, I have not been adding any chemicals into my Swimimg pool for a few months. Do I have to install a LINNER in it ? Before adding fish or ETC. IT IS A CONCRETE POOL. SOME OF WHAT I read says yes u need a liner ¿??
But, can you run the filter and pump and add a water feature like a waterfall and other features that keep the water moving and oxygenated better. And how about a bog? I hear they do wonders for filtration. If I were doing this at a 'resort' business and didn't want to scare everyone away. How could I keep up the clarity so if a guest wanted to jump in, it wouldn't be slimy and dark? Could you add medium like different kinds of rocks, stones, or those plastic boxes with tiny medium?? I'm sincerely asking with a property I'm thinking about purchasing but I HATE pools and this one has a lovely pool with a waterfall but.... it's not what I believe in. I want it to be a part of nature but at the same time still be something swimmable? Any ideas. Could the filter not be custom fitted? Along with everything else I mentioned like the bog and water fall with filter?
Could you Please make a video, showing the various stages, or is there a STAGES or steps to follow ?? My pool is small 35 ft by 16 ft 3 to 9 ft deep. Do I need to put in FILTERS , and about gravel bed for fish to Spawn in, how big, how deep ?? I would like to raise Tilapia ? What kind of other fish could go good with them ? And I think Tilapia are moss eaters ? But , where does their poop go? Could u please do one of these videos?? Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing the video. Since I found a blue banded bee around Thai basil pots in my garden (Bali, Indonesia), I was wondering where he/she is from. Bees are fascinating 🐝
