- A story about about wildlife photography and friendship in the outskirts of a modern world.
When I visited Sweden to photograph eagles, I had no idea I'd find my passion for red squirrels, a career as a wildlife photographer and a best friend 40 years old than me.

yes, special indeed, thank you for a pleasant rest from my day ❤
I have watched thousands of videos on YT... Occasionally you come across something really really special.......This is one of those occasions.... Beautifully filmed and edited... Thank you from your newest admirer :-))) xx
I like your saying: "I saw more squrirrels than people ..."
March, 2024, since finding this channel, catching up on several of your videos a day and this one I think must go back towards the beginning of what has become an incredible journey. Northern Sweden is so beautiful, the cliche of "Winter Wonderland". The resident creatures beautiful, and the photography beautiful. I think it is wonderful to be able to have such a dream and make a career following that dream, and helping the creatures we share this planet with as well. Hope you are successful in saving Squirrel Wood".
Man, this video sure did put a smile on my face.
I has seen 2 of Your videos, this one and that of three 4 young squirrels, I love both, the nature the animals, and the tranquillity of You, the nature and of Conny. As a Swede my self, from the southern parts, It is always a joy to see these great areas of forest, without interupption from human activity, I will start to subscribe on Your channel. THANK YOU!
💚 It feels really good. Thank you much🌹
Having a really good friend much older than you is a wonderful thing.
What a great video Dani! Real friendships are not bound together by age but by a common interest. The more experienced friend is a library with open doors to the other friend. When time runs out for the library, the doors will close for ever. My best friend is 45 years younger than me & most people just don't get it but that's their problem.
Great video tyvm...I feel like I need another blanket for some reason....from Knoxville , Tennessee
Thank you Dani. Och tack Conny! I grew up in Stockholm, then Göteborg, then UK where I have stayed. The Sweden you talk about is the wild Sweden i really miss. Your photography is photography at its best, ie when photography itself comes a distant second after the subject of nature and the experience of being immersed in it. Beautiful and inspiring.
Wonderful!!!🧡🧡😍
I love the quiet in the background...hate the cold all around😁
After watching a first vid last night I was happy to see another one showing up. I totally can relate to why you love what you are doing, and its so beautiful and inspiring to observe
🌎💚🌞
There is something about your video and the presentation, it transports me to that place at that time. Being a nature lover, and a landscape photographer I can understand how much planning and hard work went behind it. Keep it up Dani.
So sweet, i love the snow ❤
wonderfull pictures and a wonderfull friendship you found.
Wow what a friend makes you hope that one day i will find a good friend again its hard to trust people but a few things have given me hope that nice people are out there exspecially since ive started volunteering. Really like your videos
take heart there are plenty of good friends out there......just take care, easy does it, and remember that the predators prey upon the vulnerable among us. best of luck.
Awesome cinematography, excellent video.
Thanks, Dani.
Beautiful video, I've been to Finnish Lapland before and been in awe of its beauty, so I can only imagine what it must have been like to live there for a while.
After watching another video here, (breaking my heart) the current trend to kill adult Otters, steal the babies, and the flourishing market to sell them as 'pets', (wrong!! doesn't even cover it, words just can't) .... your video's are mending my heart. This is exactly how we should respect wildlife, and interact with them, as the Red's did with you guys, by choice, patience and love. Thank you. I subscribed to you Dani, can't wait to see more of your work.
The few times I've seen otters only in zoos the are the most amazing animals . Clever friendly and able to stand up to bigger animals than them selves but not humans we ruin everything.
@@howardtowler6146 So agree with you there Howard.
this leaves me grateful. thank you
Dani, you have the right attitude to become a really, really good and extraordinary wildlife photographer. I'll cheer you on as much as I can, and await what else you will manage to come up with in the years to come. Patience is a virtue, and you have loads of it!
Nice film Dani, i myself have been to Conny,s..He,s a great guy, and his set up is second to none..Keep up the good work.
Beautiful work
What a wonderful friendship you have🤗 Love your videos x x
*Fabulous!*
Nice to hear the Swedish language! I understand most of it. Being Danish helps because the languages are extremely similar. The funny thing is that most Danes only understand about 22% of spoken Swedish, and Swedes only understand about 11% of spoken Danish, so when we interact we tend to resort to English. The reason I understand more is because I've sung a lot of Swedish songs, by Bellman, Wennerberg, Sjöberg, Adolphson and others.
I've seen a Kongeørn only once: 6 April 2017. Unfortunately I was at work and had no time to photograph it.
mostly birds Small creatures are afraid. This is a big surprise. it's a wonderful friendship
I would love to live in sweden! thx for your videos it's inspirating !
Intressting. My name is also Conny. Im a wildlife photograper and my favorit objects is squirrels and eagles but Wite tailed eagles 👌🏻

Its about age. Its anout connection. Wel said ❤
Such a beautiful video! Can't stop watching it...and those eagles, wow!
Stunning
Красиво и душевно! Понравилось видео.
Love this animal so cute :)
Hello I download my dog vedios I will appreciate you seeing them.
Finally got around to watching this and it was beautiful to see. You and Conny have such a great friendship and you both learn lots from each other 🙂
Love watching your videos
I am so happy for you to be able to experience this wonderful experience. The two of you with a vast difference in age, yet able to learn and share.
I’m 71y.o., lucky to experience lots, however in the last year discovered wildlife photograph, now my life has slowed, when I hike it is no longer a quest to get from point a to b, now it’s a journey to discover and appreciate as much as I can along the way.
Nature is a tough survival for every plant and animal, each is only trying to survive and reproduce.
Gorgeous video, amazing footage wonderful mood (the music, the snow conni talking Swedish), the hides, Squirrels, the eagles , and finally so cool to see conni and you Interacting - I could have watched it for way longer :)
These are really cool films Dani.As always a great love for subject is so integral to the spirit of the filmmaking.And you express it beautifully.
Ein selten schöner Kanal.
What an amazing experience for you to have such a wonderful person to mentor you.
This one is maybe my favorite video. Maybe bacause of the eagle or maybe because of the story, or maybe because of them both, i'm not sure:)
I just discovered your channel today and it's a relief. A relief to see your relationship with animals and nature and Connny, compared to the sea of nonsense on CZcams :) I can really relate to the whole atmosphere and sensitivity of your videos, thank you. It touches me to see how much patience you have.
Beautiful
You really make me want to photograph those eagles.... Super Video, very lovely story, fantastic animals and two very cool people. That's some good inspiration and motivation! 😊
Beautiful, really beautiful.
Amazing film! loved this so much!
fantastic...incredible...so glad I found this
This is a lovely story with some gorgeous photography. Well done. H
What a simply delightful relaxing video. Very touching and simply beautiful surroundings.
This is wonderful. Educational, breathtaking, and mesmerizing, calming. Living in a winter wonderland tracking wonderful creatures makes enduring the conditions so much nicer than slogging to and from the city dodging cars on slippery highways and roads.
Beautiful Video, inspiring and enjoyable. Many thanks for sharing.
What a wonderful video. Great story and stunning photos. Love this channel.😊
Nature is the best
Dani you have a rare spaciousness normally never found in young people. It took me 55years to find mine. This stillness is a doorway you're already using it ☯️
Amazing beautiful film and photography what an amazing photographer
Such a lovely story!
You're a very good visual story teller. I saw your viral young Red Squirrel video on Twitter last year, and you follow me, but I'd not checked out your CZcams channel before, until watching your Red Squirrel video yesterday.
It is amazing how a relationship can build between human and the wild, but it is at least as amazing what happens when Young and Old(ish...;- ) meet each other, with kindness and mutual respect of each other's qualities....
Great. Lovely. Greetings from Chicago & Wisconsin U.S.A.
Thanks for sharing this Dani, it’s very special 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hi Dani , Andrew here in Ottawa Canada, good to see another video from you. A superb video and I sense you have a wonderful future ahead of you. Never give up and follow your passion. Look forward to more content from you. Cheers Andrew
Amazing...really!
Very kool!
I enjoy watching your videos so much! Keep on.
Amazing beautiful film 🎥 ❤ 😍 thanks for sharing 👍
Nice movie. Conny is the best!!
Thank you for sharing this. I have not been to Sweden for 40 years, and you have reminded me of how lovely it is in the north. One day, I must visit again. (also, thanks for getting the calendars out before the holidays. My coworkers keep trying to steal the one I brought to work)
super movie with amazing shots! Bravo! 👏👏👏👍
.... much respekt Dani Connor Wild ....
I really enjoy your videos. You do a great job with them. It makes me wanna go out with you and take some pictures again.
Awesome film 😃 Beautiful.
You are blessed to have a great mentor. I prefer eagles and squirrels over people too. Your subjects are not your quarry but your friends.
Klaus be like: "WHAAAAAT!!! YOU HAVENT HEARD ABOUT THE EAGLE AND THE SQUIRREL?" "Well now I'm going to have to tell you that story in order to understand this one"
Beautiful ♥️Thank you 🦅
Thanks dear , very nice .
Your Videos are so amazing! Squirrels are my favourite animals! Really makes me go out and take pics now :)
Wow what a dream to be living!❤️
Brilliant film.
What a wonderful video!
Such a great production. Great grading great video and pictures and the story telling.. For me this is a documentary of top class. Thank you😊
Wow, brilliant!
Gorgeous photography.
Die BESTEN DARSTELLER in der ganzen Szene🤗😂
Wonderful video! Enthralling.
I hope and believe biophilia is an emergent characteristic in humanity... and videos like yours can teach it, showing that careful patient witnessing is the basis for loving
The world is so beautiful 🥹
You are great photographer....
Great film :-D

beautiful
Bravo!
Your wildlife photography is beautiful Dani :)
