1:12
bird's eye perspective artistic form of
1:15
the layout of the land some of the
1:17
original pieces of the property there

2:59
on the little grass section one on the
3:04
shoreline there alligator oh yeah

3:09
waiting around adjacent to the Big W
3:15
movie reference there next to the fence
3:18

3:26
probably zoom in a little more get a
3:26
better look all right those are not
3:29
gazelles
3:36
I cover you
3:38
I said once more like a whole pack of
3:38
them
3:56
yeah they are on the move just strutting
3:56
along as a gear there dear
4:07
was crazy horns most likely dear that's
4:07
where they play fast them in the
4:09
antelope
4:38
this guy's hungry too that's amazing oh
4:38
my gosh he's even got his nose pierced
4:41
you zoom everybody's believing
4:55
up on the top there's like a little take
4:55
your finger your pointer finger and the
4:58
other little small thing it's this right
5:00
here
5:01
oh okay here's that really slow
5:13
the king guy here god everyone else is
5:13
scurried off it's like a picture or a
5:19
video perfect timing with all the
5:23
feeding time hope there's people behind
5:26
us
5:37
there's no reason to run off I just
5:37
wanted to take it take a gander at yeah
5:51
they're really hightailing it ostrich
5:51
all by its lonesome well I realize
5:56
friends are the way just about he can
6:01
out there wondering what's out in the
6:04
expanse beyond the fence slide quite a
6:08
few Longhorns in here
6:19
hello there notice there how there is a
6:19
chain link item between the vehicle and
6:23
this bull for whatever reason you having
6:28
a staring contest now I want Timmy
6:33
dating him
6:34
oh we heard you now it's back on just a
6:40
little disclaimer there's a lot of wind
6:43
these open plains so you might be
6:45
hearing some of the noise through the
6:47
microphone yeah it's very bouncy because
6:52
the road is rough so there's gonna be
6:54
some rugged terrain you guys arguing you
7:03
guys arguing oh no at first I thought
7:06
their heads were like butted up together
7:07
but it's just the perception of the
7:09
angle they were a few feet away from
7:12
each other
7:22
that is so awesome
7:22
pressive
7:35
getting the table scraps about to cross
7:35
over into another section going over
7:37
this great and another quick reminder do
7:45
not exit your vehicle drive slow maximum
7:49
5 miles per hour
7:50
animal crossing get the knees down in
7:53
there from the cypress trees yep
7:55
so the tree would be the larger version
7:57
and the knee would be that little tiny
7:59
thing for shooting up from the swamp
8:02
very often here and Florida you see
8:05
cypress and cypress knees pretty cool
8:11
another feeding opportunity is taking
8:13
place they're congregating around the
8:16
concrete slab looks as if like every no
8:20
50 yards or so they have placed concrete
8:23
and they put the feed on that and they
8:26
all just come up to to graze on top of
8:29
it and congregate it how many times I
8:32
use congregate so far quite a few coming
8:35
in a little closer don't want to disturb
8:38
you just trying to get a gander a peek
8:42
hello okay just saying hello it's not
9:11
very sunny today they've opted for the
9:14
shaded region to shout out got you some
9:19
hay
9:39
yes little baby I'm gonna start doing
9:39
that when I eat I'm just gonna like
9:41
stare at someone I'll let you go to
9:51
waste just to give a little perspective
10:00
on how much wind is happening if that
10:03
tarp swaying in the breeze very gusty
10:19
just an example of some of the
10:19
delicacies you'll see some of the little
10:23
pellet items they're tiny portions but
10:26
there's also a Salt Lick which weighs
10:28
like 50 pounds used to work at a feed
10:31
store years ago we sold these get quite
10:34
a workout lugging those things around
10:36
palettes of them and they just come up
10:39
and they lick on it until it's gone
10:41
takes a while but eventually it'll all
10:44
be consumed seems like the whole the
10:48
whole crew here on properties just been
10:51
chowing down
10:57
and then staring while they do sup and
10:57
scratching
11:15
especially the fact that they're out of
11:15
the elements oh so if it starts to rain
11:17
or the Sun is permeating Li hot you can
11:21
just chill there and get their grub on
12:01
what's going through your mind penny for
12:01
your thoughts
12:08
don't want to talk about huh okay look
12:08
at this one yeah it's like staring and
12:12
staring into the car hey is that good
12:18
licking your lips let's say finger
12:21
looking good but lip looking good say
12:27
the dumbest stuff since eyes I had to
12:34
guess probably about my height over 6
12:38
foot tall it's just a gas but it's a big
12:44
fella
12:49
notice the horns
12:49
so when they're friendly they're very
12:51
cute but if they were to charge em I get
12:56
in their way
12:58
this horns protruding up from their head
13:06
you compare they can put an indentation
13:06
in this rental car I don't know how to
13:09
explain that when I return it some sort
13:13
of gazelle creature attack they attack
13:17
the door they seem friendly the span on
13:22
this tree is incredible it's just the
13:26
branches run parallel to the ground so
13:31
neat looking there are other obstacles
13:34
on the road careful go over the top cap
13:36
whew it's like dung alert another pile
13:41
