I rescued four baby red squirrels [The Squirrels & Me] 

Thank you to everyone for the wonderful support. I’m excited to announce my 2022 Red Squirrel Calendar is ready to pre-order! 🐿❤️ www.daniconnorwild.com/shop/p/2022-calendar Be sure to subscribe as I’m going back to Sweden in a couple of months! You can definitely expect more squirrel videos!! 😁

Dear Dani. Im an 61 year old man from Germany. Since today i need no more TV every day, now i see your amazing Videos from the lovely Wonderland Sweden. You and your Work is absolutly amazing. ❤ Martin from Germany

its 10 of a evening after entire month of devastating events happening in my life - this is healing potion to my mental wounds. god i love nature

Im a grown up man watching your video with tears of enchantment in my eyes. Thank you for sharing this magical experience

Why hasn't RU-vid told me about Dani Connor before. This is the most wonderful, warming and incredibly well produced video I've seen in a long time. Brilliant. Thank you Dani.

By far this is one of the most beautiful warming video that I have seen in my 59 years of life. I was in awe of what red squirrels looked like. This should win an award of such fantastic video and choreography and the heart warming of red squirrels. This is majestic. Absolutely brilliant. I would have wanted to take every one home. But that would not be fair to the squirrels. Oh I hope and pray they stay safe. I know squirrels have lowest percentage of staying alive. God bless these beautiful creatures. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful heart warming video. That I will never ever forget. You are absolutely brilliant ❣️❣️🙏🙏

This is incredibly impressive! One would think this was a really high budget production from National Geographic or the BBC. It’s also a very touching story. Well done!

Their cuteness is unbelievable!

Dani and her Squirrels - that's what I call true Love that warms our Hearts and makes the World a little bit nicer and happier! -The Magic of the Landscape and the so touching Devotion of this so pretty and lovely young Woman is a Gift for Mankind!

This is why RU-vid exists, a person portraying perfectly their experience with beautiful cinematography. This is just perfect.

I cannot express how much I admire the maturity in your video. By maturity I don't only mean the quality of the pictures, the text and narration but also your behaviour. After a while you could have undoubtedly petted those kids, and most of us have definitely tried that, but you could resist. You don't only like and can do this job: you were born to have the respect for nature it requires. I wish you lots of luck and success in it.

This is such a touching and sweet documentary film. How nice it must be to be far away in the north of Sweden, where you can a bird's eye view on the whole world, during these troubling times.

I don't know why I started watching a video about squirrels, but I loved every minute of it. Thank you.

OML!!!!! Soooooooo adorable and thank you Dani for being a Light Bringer

Beautiful person, beautiful squirrels, beautiful film. With people like this in the world, we have hope

There is something about the way this was filmed, your narration, the scenes, the animals themselves.. just spoke to me. I felt a sense of peace when I watched it. Thank you for that. This was wonderful.

Bless you for doing this!!!! It brought tears to my eyes as an animal lover and activist! What an amazing journey?❤️❤️❤️

So funny to see this because I befriended a squirrel in my backyard. While I’ve got 7 or 8 of them I see daily, the one I befriended always hops across my lawn to see me. When I see it, I put up my index finger as to say “wait a minute” while I go off and get a fruit bar for it. When I come back it’s sitting there waiting for me.

Anyone who saves an animal is a great person

What a heartwarming story. Thank you for your kindness to these beautiful wild animals and making the world a more beautiful place.

Awwww! So cute recording their sounds when munching their food! Beautifully shot video! Well done! 👏

There are times, when youtube algorithm recommends such trash videos. That time is not today. Absolutely fantastic film.

Thank you for saving them. We need more kind, caring people like you in this world.

Beautiful cinematography! This is award-winning content.

The little red squirrels are so adorable, especially when two of them are eating together. Love seeing them going up and down the tree. Thank you for sharing the great video with us.

I had a family of squirrels in my back yard; when babies were born, when babes were old enough, mom and dad brought them up my back lawn to meet me, was a very precious moment😊

I am so happy I found you here Dani.

Dani you are such a genuinely warm, beautiful and compassionate soul!!!😘😘🧡🧡

Love, love, love your work with the red squirrels ❣️❤️❤️❤️✨🥰😘 Beautiful babies, beautiful squirrels 🐿 ❣️💛✨Beautiful Sweden. Thank you!

This documentary should be shown on a major TV network. The videography is superb and the story is captivating.

Most animal channels constantly focus on sentimental stories and cuteness. You clearly love these squirrels but you are factual and calm about it, almost always letting the images speak for themselves. So refreshing!

Lovely Girl, lovely squirrels.... Thank you, you are amazing 😀😍❤️👋👋👋❤️

Dani, this video made my day ~~ you taught me what "biophilia" is ~~ the love for other animals and how they reach out to each other. When Baby Pear and buddy, Chiparoska (not sure of that spelling) showed up outside your house away from the forest, we knew they had survived despite all the odds. I had tears in my eyes, being a tree hugger myself.

Bless you for saving them❤️

This is my favourite video I've watched on RU-vid this year 🙂

Such an amazing quality, both artistic and technical. I truly enjoyed the narration too, and made me want to pick my camera again. Thank you, your talent is of inspiration for others. And the way you looked in silence, smiling, at the squirrels... that is true joy.

How the hell is this not on National Geographic/Disney. This should be front page of Disney Plus! I’m very happy I saw this. It was that good!

That is the most wonderful documentary I have ever seen , you are a very talented young lady and I wish you all the very best in your life as a wildlife photographer.

This is the greatest squirrel documentary ever !

Thankyou Dani for me providing me with the most wonderful Sunday morning, having stumbled on your squirrel adventures.

Thank you Dani for this beautiful footage and your charming storytelling. So soothing. Squirrels 🐿️ are so playful.

We raised a squirrel 🐿 when she was abandoned at 5 weeks old. We syringe fed her and cared for her as close as her mother could have. She taught us so much about her. When we knew it was time to release her we happily wanted to give her the life she deserved. She built a nest outside successfully and when we called her name which was Chi Chi she would come running. We would feed her nuts and fresh fruits. She would jump on our shoulder outside and happily eat there. Sometimes she would come and bang on our glass door to let us know she was there. We would open the door and feed her gladfully. She grew so much and had moved her nest a couple of trees down but would always respond to her name. We happily see her running amongst the trees and is doing well through this winter season. Squirrels are amazing and once you have helped raise one you can only look upon them with love and adoration due to their perseverance to survive and yes they build relationships with us as well. She comes to the door knocks and then waits on our swing for us to come out with food and a lot of times just for some fun playtime with her yet she still has a healthy fear of others and will not come near. She only has that relationship with us and I believe it’s because we raised her. My favorite animal to help rehab is a squirrel. Their agility and strength is amazing. Thank you for your love for these babies.

That brought tears to my eyes! I am fascinated with red squirrels and have been caring for them for years now. Every spring a new story unfolds with new furless babies arriving at our home in the forest. Last spring I rescued a baby squirrel from a cat's mouth. I was in the kitchen when I caught a glimpse of a white cat with a red squirrel in its mouth. I literally ran out the door in my socks and ran through the forest to catch the cat and I did just that. I rehabilitated the traumatized Feist and was able to set him free after a few weeks. Feist has been living around our house since.

Fantastic to be so close to this beautiful little creature it makes me vibrate to see the relationship of trust ... Thanks to you I appreciate it very much !!!!!!!!!

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing your passions with us. I couldn't help but smile through the entire film. Well done.

💕Thank you for tending to our little ones up north! /Swede

I love your decision to save the Red Squirrels! I especially love the way you placed their Mother to rest in the Earth amits the beautiful Dandelions. I've seen squirrels eating Dandelion stems and the milky sap that kills parasites in the gut!

In all my years on the internet, this might be the cutest thing I've ever seen! 😭🥰

What a wonderful story. Thank you for the fantastic video. We could watch with you the lovely animal babies. ❤

That's so beautiful, this is real life documentary and so cute. I can watch this for hours.

Thank you for the truly wonderful video footage. You toiled days in the wilderness outside your cottage to bring us close to their personalities. We're thrilled to hear that the 2 baby red squirrels survived.

About 10 years ago my youngest daughter and I raised a grey squirrel. When he started hiding food in his enclosure, I would take him outside and put him in the tree next to our house. In the afternoons I would go out, let him jump down on me and put him up for the night. One day he decided it was time to join a little group of squirrels near by. He would come visit from time to time. We enjoyed this little pal.

One of the best videos I have ever seen on RU-vid and very professionally made, thank you!

Dear Dani, your story touched me, thank you for this....you are an amazing woman with a big heart ❤ dear greetings, Dana ❤

As a grown man in nyc who basically has never encountered any wildlife… i commend you and thank you for this slice of pure and altruistic humanity!

This is probably the best documentary I have seen in the last 20 years. Great for you and terribly disappointing for BBC and Arte that a single person easily outplays their multi million dollar documentaries.

She was so patient.

As someone who lives in the US, it is so cool to see such beautiful and colorful squirrels that are very different from our own just going around the forest and just being squirrels. Thank you for sharing lovely woman.

What a great film and the photography and music used was perfect. I smiled throughout the entire film. It was wonderful and I love squirrels so much.

It's just so human to underestimate nature. I rescued a baby Red Squirrel, and had to feed her kitten formula from a kitten bottle. She grew fast and strong. We released her into our forest, and she survived a super harsh winter, and was supper happy to be alive and free. My little "Newt".

I am from India and I am glad to have found this video, This is soo subtle and as everyone said 'Heart warming'. Thank you for making my day better.

I absolutely LOVE this story/documentary about the baby red squirrels you found, how they survived and how they recognised you. I am actually pretty envious of your life. You are living my dream and I think you are super lucky. I am far too old for this now so, here in Australia in June 2023 during a warm (compared to your winter) Southern Hemisphere winter, I am going to binge watch your channel and get my fill that way. It won’t be the same but from glancing at the title of videos (as I was looking for this one on a recommendation on Instagram) I saw many titles that show me you have done many things that I would do if I could. For example buying a small 30k cottage in northern Sweden. My father came from Denmark (and although I’ve never been there or met any of my relatives there) I still feel an affinity for the Scandinavian countries. So, pre-emptively, thank you for having this channel and fixing me endless hours of enjoyment!!! ❤❤❤

You are an amazing and wonderful human being. It brings me joy to watch this. The world is a little better with you in it. Thank you

Tears in my eyes. A huge lump in my throat. I am not alone. Another person loves animals so deeply. Thank You Dani. You understand this love for animals. Your work is beautiful and has the power to change our world.

Cuteness overload

Yes, as humans we are here to appreciate and lend gentle support to all life.

Absolutely stunning. You are Snow White. Beautiful cinematography and photography. So glad to have found this channel on RU-vid.

So they actually lived outside her house in the end? Maybe they knew she lived there. What a wonderful story. So beautiful.

I don't know what is more beautiful seeing the squirrels walk up to you or the smile that comes over your face

i dont know what i have to say,,,, its beautiful... thanks you a keep your squirrels safe.... thanks from czech republic.

I came here because of my friend Celia Farber who posted this to her Substack. What a gorgeous story and what a talented filmmaker you are, not to mention a very kind and devoted animal lover. Me, too. I'm so glad you're getting such great support! ❤

Absolutely adorable! Great job, Dani!

Incredible film. The camera work, editing and patience was rewarded with such a special bond. Thank you for sharing it

Beautiful story, so cute squirrels and her mom.

The level of cuteness in that video is just insanely high. 😍🥰 Thanks for that amazing and beautiful video!

Thank you Dani Connor ✌👍. Wonderful camera work and editing! The baby squirrel's story was a high point today 💕 I lived in the forests of N. California and have been lucky to have made friends with several squirrels. They are amazing little twitchy fur balls 😄

I am shocked to see how good filmed and edited this video is. This is world class. Impressed!

Dani, I found this video totally by accident. I can't express how much I enjoyed it and how much joy it brought to me. You are a beautiful young woman living the life of her dreams it seems. The connection you made with the red squirrels was absolutely fascinating to me. The quality of the photography/filming and video production is nothing short of amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your passion and talent Dani. I will continue to follow you. Larry, Central Valley, Ca USA

A heart warming video for me to behold. Thank you.

Yes, absolutely. Animals reach out when they are in need of help or survival. I have seen it countless times. Your beautiful film captures this essence and need wonderfully.

As an avid film maker myself, the production quality of this documentary is absolutely first rate and incredibly impressive. The images captured really are broadcast quality, not to mention the fact that it's such a beautiful and engaging story. Thank you Dani and a very happy new year to you. :)

A charming and educational video, many thanks from an ancient Londoner. Reds are sadly absent from local woodlands although there are a few places in the UK where they are still inhabitants.

Dani und ihre Eichhörnchen - das nenne ich wahre Liebe, die unsere Herzen erwärmt und die Welt ein wenig schöner und glücklicher macht! -Der Zauber der Landschaft und der so berührenden Hingabe dieser so hübschen und liebenswerten jungen Frau ist ein Geschenk für die Menschheit!

One of the most beautiful animal stories I have ever seen😭

Girl you sooo awesome I can't say that enough ,there needs to be more people like you

Truly a lovely story/ film. Most enjoyable 30 minutes I've had all day today. Thank you. This film also teaches patience and we all need a lesson in that yeah.

Well done you Dani, what a lovely thing to do. These are great little animals & I think you've done them proud. Great Video 👌👌

You and your videos are awesome, thank you for what you do, I love wild nature too.

I have to write that this woman is very pure and she made an amazing film about this tiny creature which everyone wants to see from near.The quality of the video and the sound are perfect.You have to become a professional narrator about films for the nature.You are smiling as a Child i.e Very Extremely Naturally and also You are very Positive.I am glad that I saw You.Also she has a gift to be cinematographer. Good luck

Well Done Dani...This World Needs More Gold Hearts Like You...Bless All Creatures Great and Small...Earth Soul Blues RocknRoll...

a most amazing and uplifting video, Dani. Its beautifully created, edited and presented. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

There's something soothing and relaxing in just watching animals be animals.

Not even 100k subs? How is that possible? This is one of the most professional and high caliber videos I've ever seen on RU-vid.

I am someone who loved forests all my life, for their quiet serenity and animals. I always thought no woman would share that passion but here is Dani and everything she likes, i like.

I'm feeling so peaceful while watching this video, I almost slept in. So beautiful animals and voice.

I was in my yard in Florida as the sun was setting when a baby squirrel fell out of a large oak above me and into my arms screaming. Terrifying fall from about 40 feet. Feral cats prevented safe reunion, but got him back out into the wild soon enough. Buddy for life. Squirrels are special. :-)

There is only one word, "FANTASTIC"

Your patience is incredible, as is the production quality of your work. Thank you for your hard work and compassion.

It´s thanks to people like you that we shouldn't give up on the future.

This is an extraordinary piece of work. You should be very proud. "But I have peanuts." That cracked me up. And who doesn't love a happy ending?
