Old Trees, Bird Houses and a Pot of Gold

[Julsinmaine101]

awesome little garden...I didn't do much in mine this year..maybe next year when I can get a rottatiller..lol

[crescentfoot]

Your yard is so intresting to see, I loved the tour. ( :

[bugsinrug]

Thanks so much!

[Bean829]

Nice video Chris. I could never do that guy's job cutting down the tree, anything above 10 feet scares me to death. Really neat stuff you have around there, I like the old pump, that's cool.

[bugsinrug]

Thanks Bean. You like the outside stuff?...You should see the inside of our house! Hugs!

[notsob75]

Hated to see the old tree come down :-( But such is life. Nice video though and i enjoyed seeing your garden and bird houses. Your doggie is cute. Thanks for sharing.

Huggs

B-)

[bugsinrug]

Thankyou Boston!

[TamHickey67]

With that old tree coming down, you'll probably find a few more birds utilising the Guest rooms in your back yard!

[bugsinrug]

I never thought of that Tam!! hee hee.

Thanks for watching. Hugs!

[dl737]

Nicely done Chris. On the one hand the old tree comes down - on the other, new life in the form of birds, shrubs and plantings in your garden. Thanks for the tour :)

[bugsinrug]

In other words... "a bird in the hand is worth two in the downed tree?" :-D

Thanks & Hugs !!!

[f3xpgm]

I love your garden full of beautiful bits of life! Thanks for sharing Chris! Big kiss!

[bugsinrug]

I'm glad that you like it Felix. It will be prettier as summer rolls in. Thanks & Hugs!

[LAArtGallery]

Man, scarey just watching I can't imagine having that job! So sad to see that all things must come to an end. On a brighter note, your doggie is too cute!

[bugsinrug]

Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

[Zoltrix67]

I just loved watching this video Chris. And yeah, sum1 should have hugged that tree. Hugs Phil

[bugsinrug]

Thankyou Phil. The poor tree seemed to be hanging on with all it's strength. It has been there forever! We have to get our pussywillow tree out back trimmed, and I am a nervous wreck about it! Hugs!

[Zoltrix67]

I know what you mean. We had one grow outside the house and had to have it trimmed. The guys that did it, were very good, I would not attempt it.

[mysteryglo]

I love all your birdhouses! I have had some but no birds have ever used them!  :( Cute grandson bricks for your garden! Love all your gnomes also. I have 3! :D

[bugsinrug]

The birdhouses are all occupied right now..which means babies will be coming soon! Thanks for watching Judy & Hugs!

[likecards]

oh I used to date a guy who did that. I wish I could find someone now to do it. I have 6 mature elm trees.

[bugsinrug]

...and their arm muscles! Oooh baby! :-)

[likecards]

Oh so that's why you were watching. HA HA

[nbwulf]

I really, really need to get a birdbath for our backyard... I love watching the tree timmmers...wish I had the cajones! =)

[bugsinrug]

What??!! Jason...no cajones?!! hee hee..me bad. For a guy that drives his bike like there is no tomorrow...I am shocked! Hugs!

[SunnyDazStormyNitz]

Enjoyed the visit. We like your back yard too.

[bugsinrug]

Thanks Guys! Hugs!

[angel28607]

You have a very pretty place Chris.Your puppy is so cute.Thanks for sharing all the lovely things around your home.

[bugsinrug]

Thanks so much! Hugs!

[LeSaMilano]

That little white bungalow house behind the tree looks just like the house I grew up in.

You have a later Spring than we do - our Forsythia have already come and gone, and the tulips are on their way out!

Thanks for the tour Chris. Nice little spot you've got there, very peaceful.

[bugsinrug]

That little house used to look so pretty years ago. Then it was sold, over and over again..to people who just didn't care. Maybe these new tenants will be better. Thanks Lesley & Hugs!

[MissTruly]

Thanks for showing us your lovely back yard, so personalized!

[bugsinrug]

Thankyou MissTruly, we have tried to make it fun yet peaceful. Hugs!

[Texasred63]

Either that was one BIG tree or that is one SMALL man, I almost did not see him!!

I love your backyard too, so pretty. I will have to send you a package for your backyard some day!!

[bugsinrug]

It was one heck of big tree! Thanks for watching.

[Serramist]

I wouldn't want the tree trimmers job either.  our dog is so cute

[bugsinrug]

Thankyou!

[DXborderline]

I have two friends who do the tree thing. One of them had to stop, when he fell from a tree and got traumatic brain injury. It can be a scary job! The other guy I know still does it. very cute garden area.

[bugsinrug]

It is a dangerous job for sure. Thanks for watching. :-)

[realnutty01]

It is sad that they had to take down that big old tree. But your garden looks a lot better then it did with all that snow. Thank you for the lovely sunny trip around your garden.

[bugsinrug]

Thanks for watching Kim! Hugs!

[timido66]

So sad for that old tree. Why did it have to come down? I love your backyard too. Thanks for inviting us back there.

[Glasschick07]

Poor tree. Very sad to see. However your garden area is really cute!!

xoxox

[bugsinrug]

Thanks so much. :-)

[moomay11649]

Holy crap! I'd be mortified up there. Pretty birdhouses.

Your doggie is so cute! What breed is she? Hahaha!

I have a gnome in my front yard too.

[bugsinrug]

Thanks Moomay. Meeka is a Shih Tzu. She was a shelter dog. She is my baby. :-)

[popparoc46]

My granadson is Aaron, too! What a beautiful garden! Love the bird houses and everything else!  Thanks for the tour, Chris. - roc

[bugsinrug]

That's cool roc. :-)

The garden looks so sparse right now, but it should fill up as the season progresses. Hugs!

[Pippilly]

Nice video Bugs. Yes, that tree needed a hug. It's beginning to look a lot like spring, very nice.

[bugsinrug]

Hi Pippy! Nevermind spring...now I want summer! :-D Hugs!

[randomwritings]

that was a nice lazy afternoon condensed into a few minutes - reminds me I need a box of matches

[bugsinrug]

Matches??!! Arrrrrgh!! That poor tree! :-(

hugs Brian!

[randomwritings]

or maybe it will be turned into a valentine card and be treesured forever!

[timido66]

Leaf the jokes to the professionals.

[randomwritings]

was only trying to branch out from my more serious roots

[timido66]

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bark at you. I hope this doesn't hurt our budding friendship.

[randomwritings]

not at all - as if it wood!

[BradThunder]

Son of a beech! I'm having deja vu!

[randomwritings]

Wondered when you might appear - I was pining for you!

[LeSaMilano]

I just knew it! You've taken a lichen to him!

[randomwritings]

But I love you mossed darling! x

[LeSaMilano]

that's because I have you in the palm of my hand.

[randomwritings]

that is a fig ment of your imagination dear.

[bugsinrug]

this is beginning to branch off into a vlog of it's own. Best we leaf it alone.

[randomwritings]

ok time to log off anyway, night night

[robertpina99]

That tree trimmer is always high.

[bugsinrug]

LOL. Yes, he is. :-D  Happy Birthday!

[GoretexRobo]

groovy vid bugs wow its spring there also  i see its breezy and cool here

[bugsinrug]

Thanks Bryan. It's cool here today and rainy. Hopefully the warmth will return real soon. Hugs!

[bohogirl1]

i enjoyed this video so much. so sad when a tree you know and love disappears. the happy garden and the sad tree.

[bugsinrug]

Yes, I believe that trees have feelings..sounds silly...but it hurts me to see them chopped down. Thanks!

[Sanwings]

Its sad when trees have to be cut down. I LOVE bird houses!! OH MY things are greennnnnnn!!! We don't have any green!! Still ugly brown!! Meeka is sooooo adorable...The yard is lovely!!! I so long for greennnnnn and flowers!! Today it is nice but more snow coming ...hugs..to you!!

[bugsinrug]

Thankyou Sandie. Yes, finally we have the green and hope that snow doesn't head our way. It has turned very cool and grey though. Hugs!

[achampag]

poor old tree. why did they have to remove it?

nice garden! thanks for giving us a tour =)

[bugsinrug]

I don't know why they had it cut down. It's a shame. Thanks for watching & commenting!

[flydarling]

Thanks for sharing your back garden with us Chris, your Forsythia is doing really well! Mine is just a straggling baby at the moment but has a few flowers this year. Love the bird houses I wonder if they chose the neighbourhood for it's Gothic feel with all the skulls? Cheers, Lesley

[bugsinrug]

It's more country than Gothic Lesley, maybe they are "country-turned city birds" lol. My Forsythia's were all cut way back at the end of the summer season, and I was really worried that they wouldn't come back..but they did! Thanks & Hugs!

[LilCav68]

I hate when I type something and then it tells me comments exceeded limit. GRRR

Birdhouses.. get me some.. I have 3 feeders.

Trees.. dying... makes me cry...

[bugsinrug]

Me too Maria..I cried when it all came down. Ooh, that stupid "comments exceeded thingy"!! One of my top pet peeves!! Hugs!

[JeepGirl2]

I have a turtle in my garden too. hee heee :0)

Looks like Meeka is enjoying the lovely grass and sunshine.

I like your yard art! The cowboy is fun.

[bugsinrug]

Thanks so much!! :-)

[OhCurt]

Chris, sandwiching this video with the knocking down of the old tree at the beginning and end really made for a sweet (bittersweet, almost) video. Wow.

[bugsinrug]

Thanks for the compliment Curt! That's what I was aiming for. I cried when the last piece of tree came down. It has just always been there .. ya know? Hugs!

[KurtGnu]

I think it was a garden video of yours that I first watched, and what made me sub.. seems like a very long time ago, somehow.. :)Nice to see it (the garden) again.. :)

[bugsinrug]

Thanks Rob. I wil be making more garden vids when the summer comes. Hugs!

[Sikosm]

wow i can't understand how that guy could go that high up the tree!! woah!! id be clinging onto that branch for dear life!!

you have a wonderfully cute giggle

WOW those skulls are MASSIVE!

it's very sunny over there.. i wish it was here - it's FREEZING!!! it is 12.30am and it is only 9deg.C / 48deg.F (which system of temperature measurement do they use where u are?)

yellow used to be my favourite colour, but now it's purple!

i like my backyard too :-)

ur leprechaun accent's cute

[bugsinrug]

Thanks! We use Celsius temp here, but I use both..lol. It has turned cool and rainy today.

[Sikosm]

i use celsius as well, but i can never remember what other countries also use it so i usually put both temperatures measurements.

9degC is probably no way near the coldest you would get over there tho, being so high up in the northern hemisphere

[Largo64]

I enjoyed your tour!

[bugsinrug]

Thankyou. I will take more video of the garden as the summer rolls along.
