Thanks Colette will go and listen and read your post. Blessings from one woodland woman to another 🎉
Colette: Just wanted to say, please don’t worry about YT. Stay true to yourself and if you had to accept commercials/adverts then your loyal subscribers are 100% supportive! We all appreciate your calm demeanor and honesty! Thank you. 😊
Who can explain what crape you have endured by u tube.but your loyal followers will always support you dear Colette ❤Kerry Australia
It will only encourage me to publish more! Rebel by nature…that’s me! 🇮🇪
@@bealtainecottage That is how it is done Colette. Beat them at their own game and not stooping to their level!
It's always a special treat when you post a new video. I usually try to wait until I have a moment all to myself so that I may watch it uninterrupted. As far as people being unsubscribed, I think that happens if they aren't getting ad revenue, and the censors don't like a particular viewpoint a creator may have expressed. They have actually gone through creators videos and given strikes on videos that are years old. They're just unsettled because you know what a woman is and you weren't shy about it.
Haha! My thoughts too!
I love the mornings when I wake up to a new Bealtaine Cottage video! Good morning and blessings to your wonderful family and magical woodland! 🍀
Very beautiful Collette 🌷and honestly i dont know how you did it ...your some lady 💪💛🌻🙏
Your cottage on 3 acres is such a huge inspiration for my cottage on 3 acres. My land is, at the moment, just over grown grass and brush, but I’m hoping to make a wonderful garden and woodland similar to yours. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful house and land with us all
Good luck with your project 🦋. I would love to do something similar in possibly Scotland but not sure if 3 acres would be a bit overwhelming 🐞.
Thank you! I think now I know what 3 acres look like 1 acre would have been more than enough, but I guess it's nice to have the extra land for when ideas run away with themselves! You should definitely try to it, Scotland is stunning!@@ellie.l6585
Excited to see your progress 😊
Ah thank you so much!@@laurahowe5214
The joy you and Patsy get from working and walking the land is amazing to watch.
I am still in awww at what you have accomplished in 20 years. I remember your video when you read the letter stating that Bealtaine Cottage was paid in full and is all yours! What you did to acheive your goal is something most young people will never understand. You have not only accomplished your goal but you have supercede it. Everything you have done since buying your property, e.g.; books, podcasts, tours, videos, etc...is because of your determination to make this happen.
Beltane is a magical place. My personal belief is that it was always there, sleeping and waiting. Waiting for that one special woman to come, care for it, and love it.
I have thought the same too!
❤
Dear Colette , Bealtaine Woodland looks like a miracle . I have a willow with black catkins . It‘s nice to watch the birds , in our case they seem to have died en masse . I keep waiting . Best regards to you ,Patsy and your loved owns from Conny Braun and cat Felix 🐈⬛ from Germany . 🌍❤️🌳🦮🦉🦇🦗🐜🐝🦔🦡🐿️🐇🌳🪴🪻🪵🔥🫖☕️🌼🌸🪻🌍
Colette, I don't mind the ads after all the years and many videos You shared . It gives me a chance to read through all the lovely comments from You Wonderful Community , always learn something , it is like We are all holding hands around Her , I am sure the Energy of Love is growing . This year there seems to be even more Frogs in Your pond , so very Magical and a Blessing . You have done such a lot of cutting back , looks wonderful . It is so lovely to see how much Mother Earth flourishes and gives back 1000 fold for all the work or Active Love You give !!
Dear Colette, your videos and blogs are so very much appreciated in these troubled times, and thank you so much for today's recording of Bealtaine's birdsong, it was heavenly. I tried to comment on your website but I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the craziness at the moment and my befuddled brain couldn't work out how to do it. CZcams is my last remaining social media and I despair at how the platform is treating you.I hate the manipulation and greed in the world today. Our freedoms are being stolen from us in so many ways and I'm deeply troubled. I know I'm not alone in how I feel. A break from the digital world is in order so for now at least, thanks again, stay strong and free. Sending blessings and much love to you and darling Patsy xx
Welcome! Links to all my books can be found under every video I post. Enjoy this video and please Like and Subscribe for more.
❤ it's so beautiful 😊
I almost said spring is my favorite time at Bealtaine but every season there has its own beauty and luckily I don’t have to pick😂. Thank you for another lovely video.
You’re Videos Are So Peaceful & Enjoyable🐸TY
Patsys walk is adorable.
Good afternoon to you Colette good to see the frogs are doing well. Lots of new life to come . Although it's still quite damp underfoot it's always a pleasure walking through the woodland .Thank you for this interesting walk . Hugs and Blessings 💚🌹
The stream in your woodland is a miracle, a wonder in your cottage.and the frogs!blessings dear Colette
Wonderful to peek at the Frog Party!!🐸🐸🐸 Looking forward to this Spring's show in the 20th year of your Wonderful Woodland!!🌺
Happy to watch your spring starting to appear. Snowed where I live last night.
Love your videos. It is so wonderful to see you and Patsy walking your beautiful land. Both calming and inspirational. 🙏
I checked , and I am still subscribed ! 💙 Loved this walk and the greening is such a welcomed sight ! Blessings 🌱
My goodness I love your videos with Patsy "The Little Explorer", have a beautiful spring.
Such a joy to see your woodland! Never stop, please!!
Thanks for a good video. Missed seeing your gardens.
Must say it's nice having more frequent videos up. I bet the neighbors have enjoyed seeing the land come to life over the past 20 yrs, I sure would.
Just magical! The bird and frog song is joy. Thank you for a glimpse of spring in the west of Ireland 💚🐇🍀
Beautiful, as always…combined & including the glorious sound of birdsong… “Joyful” is the best description…. 💘
The painting of the poppies! ❤❤
The birdsong is just exquisite ❤. You have made it beautiful, Collette. I would love to do something similar in Scotland. Just researching things at the moment 🦋.
Simply Beautiful ❤️❤️. Well done Collette you have created a beautiful haven for yourself and for nature ❤❤❤❤
Everything is so lovely and I always enjoy the time that you share your life with us.
Patsy is looking great and is also quite good at staying close to you in the walks. I am so glad that she is learning to be comfortable and relaxed with the adventure of discovering the many different things that are happening in the woodland garden. Seeing the harmonious relationship between you two is delightful and such an expression of the love that you share. ❤
Thanks Collette for your kind and thoughtful response to life and the focus on living with love and creativity in alignment with peace and the dedication to protect and honor the environment.
I love the 🐸frogs and the pond ❤
My favorite mornings. Your woodland when it is still early, the birds are waking up. A little misty, to see the buds opening up on the bushes. That feeling of: ‘spring is in the air’…… with a lot of imagination, guided by your voice Colette, it is almost as if I am there. Thank you ! 🙏💕🌷
What a beautiful day at Bealtaine Cottage, Colette. Thank you for sharing it with us. I so enjoyed the walk about. Just what I needed to start my day. 💚
Hi Colette, so nice to spend some time with you and your doggie, in your beautiful wonderland, really enjoyed it!!
So, thank you my friend, lots of love and blessings, ❤ 🙏 🍀 Conny
Patsy enjoys her surroundings just like jack did . You are blessed . ❤
Thank you for the tour , it’s always such a pleasure to wake up to you and patsy in the morning. Everything looks amazing, ever evolving. Much love from Kentucky 💐😘🇺🇸👋🏻
What a delightful walk! Thank you, Colette. Soon as the sun come up over here - Northern California, I'll be out the door, too! Always on the look out for bears and mountain lions! XXOO -L
You Collette, are an inspiration. ❤️
THANK YOU, COLETTE!🙏🏻🙏🏻
Your MAP arrived today just a couple of minutes ago!🤗💖And it is so Beautifully illustrated,
and then I saw that you had posted a new video today... So it must be my Lucky Day Today!🍀🍀💖🤗🙏🏻🌱👍🏻
Loved the video today...
I am Still awaiting the Frogs🐸🐸 here in Sweden🇸🇪🇸🇪 and I am a bit jealous, seeing all the Rhododendron flowering allready in your garden!
You have come a long way with your loving Project...
I am happy every time I see you have posted a new video.... And you give me so much inspiration when showing your garden, both from "the best and the worst" side.... So thank you for the work you do both for us, viewing you on youtube and for all things you help Mother Earth with....
And I can tell you that I feel very proud about being a subscriber of your youtube channel and being a member of your Patreon.... Because I know what a "hard" work it is , but also a very important work.
So once again Thank You...
And I am so childishly awaiting the "Imbolc Book" in the post....
Thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻
from Kristina in Sweden🇸🇪
Thank you dear friend! Reading this wills me on to make more videos ❤️
@@bealtainecottage
Please do so Colette, there is always something new to discover in a garden/ woodland like yours!🌱💖🤗🌱🙏🏻
Beautiful place you have heavenly peace all the time and a beautiful garden and trees
You definitely have cleared a great deal of overgrowth and can see a big difference 💜🏡🇺🇸
Beautiful video Colette. ❤
I've just worked in the garden for the last 2 hours....time for a cup of tea!!!can't wait to sit down and listen to you❤
So wounderful. The perfekt Hone for mother earth. Thank you for this Video. It touched my ❤. Greatings from Germany 🫂
I do so enjoy my cup of coffee in the morning with a video from you. Somehow, it starts my day off with a smile. It is amazing how you transformed a piece of earth into an exquisite paradise. Your video's have become my peaceful place as the US continues to sprial. Enough on that. I greatly appreciate all that you share of your world. God bless.
The entire western world is in decay and decline! Not the YT likes my comment!!!
@@bealtainecottage I truly pray people around the world understand that most of the people are NOT in alignment with the current events. Most of us are kind and want to live peacefully.
I know my day will be extra special, whenever I see a post from you and Patsy. Thank you for all you do.
So many happy frogs splashing in the pond! 🐸 It's nice to have my morning coffee with you on a walkabout. So many signs of Spring returning to the woodland. I remember from your videos in past years how quickly things change there. It's always exciting!
Thank you Colette for another lovely video. Xx
I love to hear you chuckle, Colette❣️🐸🌷✨
Good morning Colette- Thank you for taking us along on this lovely woodland walk. Still looking at snowy woods here in New Hampshire. It does my spirit good to see your property blooming forth. I'm starting to emerge from winter's palette and speaking of 🎨 palette, I'm getting out my pocket sketch book to capture our first signs of spring. And I can also freeze frame your walks and try a pocket sketch a bit of 🍀 Ireland. My subscription to your channel has not been disturbed. I encourage viewers to subscribe in support of your wonderful project.Twenty years of dedication to Mother Nature. A 🌳🌿🌳 work well done my friend. ~ Diane
A new post from Bealtaine Cottage is always welcome! Thanks so much!!
It IS joyful!! So lovely!! Colette!! Blessings to you and little Patsy!! I checked and I am still subscribed.
Looks so beautiful Collette.Ignore the negativity.❤ Patsy looks so well.❤
Perfect timing! Lunch time at work, Collette pops up a new video! Thank you & blessings to you 💕
Enjoyed the tour, very much! Those are very happy frogs.
blessed be colette much love and respect ...love your woodland works..overgrow overshare overcare verseed everywhere worldwide..high patsy...cheers all be safe
If I'm feeling disillusioned with the world Colette, I always pop on one of your videos, and it grounds me. You're the voice of reason in a somewhat crazy world! Whether I'm following you around your lovely 3 acres or following you around Aldi, you always manage to remind me about what is important in life, family, love & mother Earth ❤
Wow, thank you! 🙏
Thanks! Long overdue. You inspire and heal me daily.
You are so welcome MarianFrances and I thank you very much XXX Colette
Joyful and uplifting.
Your years of hard work have certainly been worth it. Beautiful woodland and waters.❤
I totally understand accepting the commercials from YT. We all do what we have to do to maintain our lifestyle. Keep up the great work and enjoy your life and garden and cottage. I so admire you for doing it all on your own. I have been single most of my life and love it! You are an inspiration to us all! I have only watched 1 hour of news today and the rest of my Sunday has been spent watching your videos. I feel sooooooooooooo much better! Thanks again!
Its so wonderful watching and hearing the water. It must be amazing to live on land with a spring. I have a small garden pond that my husband created (no spring) just a hole with liner and plants. The frogs who live in that little pond give us so much entertainment.
You have truly made your little woodland a gem. I so enjoy each video you send out into the CZcams universe.💙🌷😇
So beautiful to see your woodland waking up from its slumber ❤ thank you for the tour 😊
What a beautiful place.
What a lovely time of year, to watch the burgeoning growth of all in Mother Nature. I completely understand the joy being in the midst of your garden, Collette. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I don’t mind clicking thru a few adverts if it means I can “visit” you, cup of tea in hand, and hear the birds and frogs of spring whilst marveling at the dynamic and creative masterpiece you have fostered there on your beautiful, magical patch! Sending love from the winter forest of northern NY state (yes readers from afar, there are huge forests in NY…it is not all a big city! ). 😉. ❤❤❤
Thanks for that!
I always love the beginning of spring. Thanks for sharing your beautiful land.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful property. It is so relaxing for me to watch your videos.
Dear Colette, I have followed your wonderful channel right from the beginning and just wanted to say this video is your most glorious yet, in my opinion. Your beautiful woodland is so full of hope and absolute joy. I have watched it 3 times already.
Like you I am a woman of a certain age haha with two acres to care for and you have been my inspiration for a long time now.
This winter I have felt as though I didn’t want to come out of my hibernation, a combination of tiredness and a despairing feeling of the way of the world which is unusual for me as I can usually focus on the positive and all our beautiful Mother has to give. Your last couple of videos have inspired me to get my boots on and my behind off the chair and out there where I belong. I thankyou from the bottom of my heart for all you give and share with us. Blessings wonderful lady ❤
You have lifted me up this morning dear Margery and I thank you 🙏
@@bealtainecottage 💕
I am envious of your early spring. I'm in Ontario, Canada. We probably won't see anything green until April.
I love your woodland,unbelievable that you did it.....................great job...................thank you for sharing.....Blessings to you and Patsy and Greetings from Daggy,Kiel,Germany☘☘☘
Beautiful as always dear Colette...quite a mild winter really ...
How I love your Bealtaine cottage and land. I love your pond and stream and all the vegetation. Si peaceful and calming. Thank you Collette. I love the little frogs also, so cute.
Collette, I was UNSUBSCRIBED AGAIN! So was my sister. I would really ask CZcams what’s going on. You should have many many more subscriber’s than you do. Your growth has not moved at all…I would say Nefarious 😢
My thoughts exactly!
Blessings to you and Patsy from SW Florida.
Beautiful video Colette as always . Little Patsy is so cute . My Imbolc book arrived to its so beautiful thank you xxxc
Thanks so much 😊
Congratulations on the 20th anniversary wow 🍀🍀🍀, and I just LOVE your little doggie 🐶 💕💕💕
This is a beautiful and relaxing video. I have had a stressful day at work and this is helping to relax and calm me. Thank you.
It’s looking so stunning! I love every video, ads or not. Hugs from the U.S.!
I LOVED this video. It brought me such peace. I would love to see a photo of the interior of the cottage when you bought it. Cause I know it MUST have been quite the project to make it as beautiful as it is.
You and your cutie Patsy!!! Love your channel!!!😊❤
Your land is beautiful your hard work has really paid off. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Just beautiful, what a wonderful fulfilling achievement the Bealtaine project has been. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Spring is early in the southwest of England too. We have daffodils with the snowdrops and many trees have already started to lose their stark silhouettes with early buds .
Thank you for taking us on such a relaxing walk through your woodland. I really wonder if the little frog 🐸 will be back in my mini pond this year.
I've just started using a new laptop, and I'm having to repeatedly re-subscribe to loads of channels.
When I heard you say on another video that we must seek positivity and create, it resonated. You give hope just by being you. I grow anything that will grow in a tin, bag, pot, recycled anything. Thank you for sharing your views,your garden, your home, your dog❤,your gifts of inspiration.
Love that!
Am subscribed to CZcams channel❣️ Been watching since the beginning🤗🍀💚‼️❣️‼️🙏🏼
Snow still thick on the ground here and lots more coming well through march most likely but nice to get a look at your early spring. I just love to see the frogs! We are looking to put a small pond in for wildlife and I’m looking forward to the day it becomes a successful habitat! Sorry to hear about your CZcams woes, this platform can be a fickle beast. Unfortunately they’ve strayed far from their original purpose and are terrible about actually supporting creators. Sadly they have the market cornered so there is little impetus for them to actually get involved with solving problems. The entrance looks beautiful! Bealtaine has grown so much, I’ve been here since the beginning and just love to see how it flourishes more every year!
Your little Patsy is such a doll. You’ve had some lovely animal companions but I surely do miss Sammy and little Beauty
What a lovely walk through the land with you and Patsy. Thank you! Thank you also for my lovely surprise in the post today. My copy of The Celtic Festival Of Imbolc has arrived. I will certainly enjoy reading this. Many blessings and love to you and little Patsy xxx
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.
Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.
And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid air stands still.
For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfil.~ Robert Frost
Enjoy your videos so much. I just subscribed! George in Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you 🙏
Hi Colette, I visited you about 7 years ago with my husband and then 10month old baby (not so little anymore!) I brought you a painting of a bee with bealtaine cottage on it. It was when you were welcoming visitors for the month of May I think. It's lovely to see how your place has continued to develop, such a haven, thankyou for continuing to share your world on here. It looks beautiful now as it did then ❤
We love you and the sweetest cottage
Collette I thought I was still subscriped because you had come up on my feed. But after your advise I checked, I had been unsubscribed!!! X
Half of all viewers are not subscribed!
I checked and still get my bell reminders. 20 years. Remarkable. Love the the light gravel on the paths which makes perfect sense as paths are so essential. Happy Valentines.
Thanks again Colette. Pleased to inform you I wasn't unsubscribed. You did so well, eleven years free of ads. Greetings from Sydney where it's sweltering but, autumn by the calendar tomorrow, and I'm on the lookout for every hint of that more mellow season. I have to tell you that I find your melodious west county accent calming to listen to. Thank you.🥀🌷🌳
Love all your videos they're beautiful xx
