It's been three weeks since my surgery, and I have one more week of taking it easy to get through. I've been really bored, so I thought I'd brush up on my editing skills. Also, I've been wanting to try shooting some 4k video with my Canon R5. I edited the video with Adobe Premiere Pro and created the music using Music Maker looping software.

Enjoy. Please tell me what you think.

1. My dear Grumpy! IT WORKED BEAUTIFULLY!

Full screen and that great sound track also worked!

So glad you posted it.

2. Thanks dear Peggy! ❤

I'll have to do more.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. Please do more. We can't have you being bored, after all!

And now I'm off to bed.

See you tomorrow!

4. That was fun to watch

And I liked the music, too. It seemed appropriate to the squirrel action.

To a gardener, though, it doesn’t quite rise to the level of “shenanigans.” We gardeners know who has been digging in our flower pots. We know we’re being watched when we plant seeds and we know exactly who digs them up for treats. Those are shenanigans.

5. That is so true.

I thought about that when I titled the video. I guess the shenanigans were mine, hauling out all my expensive gear to capture these poor little squirrels. Believe me, you should have seen these guys going after my bird feeder a few years ago.

6. That was really cute. Trying to figure out the music. We could use more of these. Thanks

7. I promise to do more.

We're headed to Alaska soon. I should have plenty of opportunities there.

You won't be able to figure out the music because it doesn't really exist. It's just a bunch of royalty free music loops that I put together with a free program from Microsoft. It sounds pretty good, doesn't it?

13. Yes, it does. I was thinking George Benson, Wes Montgomery? You did a great job.

8. I enjoyed that. Please do more!

[Grumpy Old Guy]

10. Absolutely, I will.

Thanks!

9. Wonderful!

A friend of mine recently did a hummingbird video, one of the things I would like to do eventually!

[Grumpy Old Guy]

11. We have hummingbirds too.

I should be able to do them too.

12. looking forward to that!

14. Hey! Nicely done.

I think I know that squirrel. Isn't his name Harry? Harry Balzack? Hangs out with a chick named Honey Bunny?

It's amazing what can be done with enough ones and zeros . . .
