I have good supply of tree sap, a veritable mini-river of the stuff:

It is coming from a few unfortunate tree roots, victims of my latest trail project. Longest one yet, I created yet another video here:

I also made a trail tour video followed by clips showing some of the critters that use the trails now:

His first camping trip:

Pumpkin hunting:

And he still likes to fly:
