I know I’ve been kinda MIA the last couple of weeks. Have some projects underway at the Kingdom, so I will be hit or miss for awhile.
However I wanted to relax tonight and catch up, and also drop this fun video my hummingbird cam caught while having a tree felled. (Side note: it is rotting from the inside, and wasn’t saveable and would pose a risk in the next year if not so already, so it was time. It is being replaced.)
Edit to fix video:
Where’s the ka-boom? I was expecting an earth shattering ka-boom.
The v3 doesn’t pick up the sounds like my v2 does. I have a video from it too. But there’s not a cute hummingbird in it. 
There it is! And the cute humming bird. I think you got your videos mixed up.
Ka-Boom and humming bird
Then Paul Bunyan strutted up like, that’s right.
I grabbed the wrong clip. 
Grabbed the right one and edited my original and subsequent post.
I don’t know wtf I’m doing.
Relaxin’ 
You can see my dad in both videos (he’s on the street with the guiding rope). And I’m right across the street out of the way.
I can neither confirm or deny that I have some Cayman Jack’s Margarita’s I’m sipping on.
Disclaimer: don’t drink and post on forums.
I know you said it was rotting on the inside, but it looked pretty solid in those clips.
Also, isn’t that kind of going to extreme lengths just to keep the squirrels out of your bird feeder? 
You can’t see it in the video, and I didn’t get a Pic of it, but when he made the notch cut, water POURED out of the trunk. I’ve never seen anything like it. It’s a white oak tree.
And I’ll never get rid of the squirrels. My street is nothing but White Oak trees.
We also had a minor incident when he topped the tree trunk (to make it short enough that it wouldn’t fall onto the road when he felled it), it took a funny bounce. And hit the front porch support post. Good news (I guess) is my post was never cemented into the porch, just set on the concrete. So dad just scooted it back in place. No damage. But if it had hopped a different direction it would have gone through my living room window.
Also, that’s my dad! Can you believe he’s 70???
This is better than an action movie! Dominate more things, Show 'em who’s boss! 
Spry! 
The h-bird video in the OP rocks, contrasting stuff of interest foreground, mid-frame and far! 
Then we get hummer zooming directly away from our POV across all three! Wheee! Neat!
I can’t believe I’m over 70 
That’s my favorite posting time.
As @Bam calls it… elixirs
Old spry Jed started out a hoofer 
ended one, too, it looks like… 
Thats my guy! Speaking of! Lol
I do not remember ever seeing that. Now I’m going to have to go looking for the full show.
