I love Larry. I hope you love Larry too.
As an aside: I'm gonna start posting more videos I think. Not sure what they're gonna be about yet, but expect something new and unique at the very least.
Also, did I mention I'm doing videos on Nebula, too? In addition to my YT content I'm doing some bigger one offs there that are going to be amazing. If you want to see some longer pieces from me, sign up for Nebula and CuriosityStream in this extremely cheap double package they put together for me: curiositystrea... (this isn't a paid ad, I just like working with them, although eventually I'll make them pay me to say it)

@@RareEarthSeries Last week we found a little chickadee on the ground, frozen to the snow (it was below -20 °C with a bitter north wind...Winnipeg man...the cold isn't all hype here :) ) with a damaged wing (I guess her wing got hurt and she couldn't keep herself moving, so she just sat there, melting the snow until her body heat couldn't keep it warm and it froze). So we took her in, and warmed her up and are feeding her and giving her time so that her wing might heal (I don't think it's broken, but it isn't quite right). Winter is a tough time for little birds; if she can't fly properly to eat seeds from the bird feeders people leave out (with most other food sources covered by snow), she'd probably starve. But she has started to chirp at us, and isn't afraid anymore, so I guess we've found our Larry too.

When i was a kid i had a Larry, her name was Bill. One spring i spotted Bill leading a tiny troop of five little kits across the retaining wall in my backyard. Her favorite snack was an egg. I would hide them around the yard for her to hunt down as i watched laying prone atop the roof outside my window. I can't remember if Bill stopped coming around year after year or if i stopped looking for her as i grew older.. either way she lives on in my memory, just as one day we will all live on in the memories of our friends and family. I've been doing a lot of thinking recently about memories in general, and how we honor those who came before us or who've left earlier than we have. If anyone's got a good book or media recommendation for this topic, I'd love to hear them. Hope everyone had time this last year to make happy memories despite all the hardship. If you didn't, tonight I'll raise my glass to you and to your new year, and the memories you will make. May they be merry. -Cheers

Great story. One time we saved some orphaned racoons. We little by little left them outside to experience and one day they went away. We thought we would never see them again, but one night at 2 am there was a knocking at our door and the babes came running inside the hose to say hello, get something to eat and left to never return. They just let us know they were okay and still thought about us.

@michelecox5241 3 года назад

I had a relationship with a racoon once too. She left her kids with me for three days when she needed to find a new home. It is a wonderful gift and yes it is for us more than them, I think. But it is a gift few people realize IS nature and natural if we let ourselves see it. Most humans don't. THAT is the sad thing I feel. I have good relations with many animals thanks in part to Smacker (the aforementioned racoon) and Petey (rabbit) and all those precious neighbours that lived in my back yard. Thankfully I can see, really see, nature... I am very grateful for them. Great video and thank you. I needed that. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

@lecutter9382 3 года назад

Good on ya. If you really want to help out wildlife clear out the scrub around your property and start planting fruit and nut trees and shrubs - go for a biodiverse range - and pollinator plants for the bees and butterflies and other beneficial insects. Not only does it help them it's helps scrub carbon from the atmosphere and you get the benefit of having some organic fruits and nuts yourself. Harvest what you need to so you can parcel it out to the critters over the winter and it's win-win for all of you! I know because I do this myself. I have several dozen chipmunks, squirrels, bunnies, a possum and a skunk who are all regulars at my place year round. Where they really need it and appreciate it is winter - I'm east of Hogtown an hour. I wish more people would plant these things everywhere. Grow some cuttings and go plant them in parks and trails and stuff like Johnny Appleseed.

I think you should visit the Solomon Islands when all this gloom and doom is over and find that special story that moves the heart.

Just what the doctor ordered! At little bit of harmless insanity amidst the all too real insanity of 2020. Thank you for this. We REALLY needed it. Take care and have a Happy New Year and a much, much better 2021.

Drama, tragedy, comedy, and on top of it all, mystery. A great way to start 2021.

I absolutely love that Chris Garfield just casually out the raccoon house up. Best background character in RU-vid

This year sucked so much yet still I started finally written into that webnovel that I've been wanting to make for so long. I would this choose to relive the year again because it's that important for me.

This video actually loosened a ball of pain in my chest, made me smile and shed a few tears. Thank you, Evan (and Larry), for a lovely video that picked me right up.

For some time, I thought that somehow I’ve unsubscribed to Rare Earth. I’m glad that I did not. Thanks for the upload. I wish for you & yours a happy, healthy, & successful new year. Of course that includes Larry & teenage Larry et al. 😊

Seeing a new video from you pop up on my feed was a breath of fresh air. 2020 has been terrible, but I love Larry and I'm glad she was there for you at a time you needed her. Hope to see more videos, too, because your unique view on the world around us is something I need and I know others do as well.

You’re so good in storytelling that you can rattle about feeding a raccoon for 10 minutes. 😂

Larry: " There have not been sufficient nutrients delivered to all the compost heaps I use to frequent. This is unacceptable, I wanna talk to the manager!" * goes on tho find one of the last humans left and complains. Gets food. All is well.* Also - "I´m the kind of guy who gambles a lot on his feelings how healthy a racoon walking towards him looks like." Epic!

So, in other words, you're a stepfather now. Congratulations and best wishes to BL. The job market is kind of rough for him to be setting out on his own, but I'm sure he can find something if he's willing to get his paws dirty. Barring getting his paws dirty, I could definitely see him as a good dishwasher if you can hook him up with a restaurateur who'd be willing to ignore him not being human and all.
