Man. Not only you encouraged the cycle of nature, you also tamed and brought in a feral cat. This video is so wholesome and it might be one of the best video i've watched in Youtube

This is the content I need in my life. No conflict. Just a nice guy helping nature thrive.

You 100% did not "Lose" 30 hours of your life to tilling this pond, you donated 30 hours of our free time making your local area better, massive inspiration brother <3

I heard my grandfather (89) listening to something in his room, so I walked in to ask what he was doing… he gestured turned me to sit and I ended up watching the whole video with him❤

As a teacher, this is a perfect video to really help my students understand what an ecosystem is and how it self balances.

As a biology student, I am so grateful to see this. I wish to build something later in my life.

I've never given to anyone on YouTube before. But watching how you've contributed to helping the planet is something I just can't ignore. Thank you!

I remember as a kid I use to try to make tiny ponds in my front yard. Digging up holes, putting in water, decorating it with rocks and little plants. This dude is taking my dreams to a whole new real level.

No idea why many people want a boring english lawn. Look how this garden thrives with life, you will never get bored there!

This man filmed an entire years worth of nature scenes for the benefit of the viewership.... Superb!

This is S tier content right here. Amazing work.

I hope you’re still maintaining the pond well and haven’t lost interest

[JenniferPChung]

Oh I've never seen a jumping spider catch anything. They're usually just hanging around me. I do eventually pick them up and put them back in the garden and ask them to please do their job lol. Amazing to see SOOO much life around this pond <3. Everything about this made me so happy!

[SweetAnita]

This was honestly the most beautiful video ever watched on youtube. You put so much work into making this little refuge for wildlife, and your cinematography skills absolutely SHONE. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. It's inspiring.

This is what YouTube was made for, for videos exactly like this, for content like this. Truly incredible.

14:18 the cat “ *YES!* Finally tamed this guy!”

[leah]

I’m studying to be an ecologist starting next year. One of my biggest dreams is owning property and maintaining a habitat for wildlife, just like this! Truly inspiring content.

What you're doing is truly extraordinary. We've done so much damage to the earth, it's amazing to see people making the world a better place. Thank you.
