Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Jay and Cris!

Awesome video! Glad u had a nice christmas I did as well!

Tampa Jay I just started watching you. I have seen you on some of Adam's videos. I subscribed to you. I enjoy watching several of yall that vlog. For me it all started with Adam. I have been watching him for years. Now I watch you and Cris, and MIcah, Sean, Chris Provost and Tim Tracker. Actually I have been watching Tim Tracker and Adam the longest. You and Cris are such a delight to watch together. I love how she repeats some things you say. I can really see the love you two have for each other. That is awesome. My wife and I have been married for 33 years. When you find that special one, it just works. You and Cris have that. Glad to be onboard with Tampa Jay and Cris.

Hi Jay & Cris, So Happy to hear you both spent Quality time with your Family’s at this very special time of year, Looking forward to Both your V Log’s, want to Wish You Both a Blessed Safe Joyful New Year!!!

Chris and Jay's wild Florida awesome episode! Too bad that bird canopy was closed but you saw plenty of birds that was a lot of turkeys I've never seen one in the wild or a wild fla-ming-goooo!

Very cool 😎👍

Jay one of your best vids! Happy new yrs to you both!

Good to hear from you both! Happiest of New Years!

We have been there a few times. The damage from Ian is extensive. Looked like 50% of the canopy was blown down. The best place to view the gators is to the west of the north parking lot by the restaurant and boat launch (used to be air boats that were so loud). Follow the path about 1/4 mile to an overlook of a river or inlet 20 to 30 big gators sun there regularly.

Happy New Year to you both and your families!!! 😁👍💜🎉🥂

Tampa Jay nice Cool Video Happy Holidays to u and family 😁👍🎊🎉🇺🇲

I bet thier is much ahead for the both of you into the new year I can't wait !!!

I think there is a Bigfoot story of every big forest. I visited Myakka just a few days ago on my bike tour, beautiful state park. I wanted to visit this park for a long time finally made it happen 👍

Merry Christmas TJ and CTG Glad you were able to spend the time with family! Myakka state park was so awesome, and like you say, to take a screenshot it will last longer. I took two of the many gorgeous nature settings! I wish you both a happy ,healthy and blessed new year 🎉🎊

What a fun and pretty video, i always love nature parks ^_^ glad to hear you two had a great christmas, i did to just relaxed at home and had a good day :) hope you two have a great new year and i cant wait to see what you guys bring us next ^_^

Great video Jay. I’m not laughing at your temps. Just before Christmas up here in the PNW, our hi was 26, low of 16! Unheard of in this area, 1 hr from Seattle! Oh, did I mention the ice storm also!

Happy New Year’s to both of you, may the upcoming year bring more of much ahead and more love and happiness for both of you, all my best to you both, so happy for you Jay and Cris.

Love you guys

Merry Christmas to you and a Happy New Year Jay / Chris. It’s been a while I haven’t seen some of your videos, it’s very busy here in my schedule because we are having our traditional Navajo winter ceremonies. I’m glad you guys are doing great many blessings to your family and let’s make 2023 a wonderful year. 😊

Happy New Year to you both, and yours, and got to spend some of my birthday with you both! Love the great outdoors! It’s really been cold here 🥶 😊

Dude, your videos are awesome!! Keep on bringing the positive energy and showing us some really interesting things around the country! Come back to Texas some time!!

You are cool 😎

This was a pleasant tour of the wildlife & wilderness. However, my imagination & fear of gators freaks me out. When you were turkey talking, my new dog ran over nudging my phone, so perhaps you were really speaking in canine, or she's a bird chihuahua/min-pin🐕 lol. Thx 4 taking us all along on your adventure! Happy New Year 🎉

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Go past this multiple times a year to visit in laws, thanks for showing this and here’s to NO HURRICANES for 2023!!! 🎉

Excellent as always very say about damage hurrican Ian did 😭

Happy New Year!🎊🎆 🎉

Happy New Years ✌️🎉 Hopefully the both of you can adventure to Washington State this year !!

TJ! love the new hat sir!

Happy New Year

I enjoy watching your video I love Myakka River State Park

We love Myakka River State Park. You should try going to Myakka River State Park “Deep Hole” just outside park across the highway. There is nothing there but a walking trail, gators at end & birds and sometimes wild boars. Have to get there early as they limit people going in to 20 all day.

Happy new year! I enjoyed your adventure as always. It stinks that the canopy walk and the bird walk were closed, but I hope both get fixed and reopen soon

you'll have to come over to Gainesville Florida, check out "Paynes Prairie and Preserve State Park", there is so much to look at. only 25 minutes away is a filming location in Micanopy.."DOC HOLLYWOOD", one of Adams haunts..."HAPPY NEW YEARS"!!

Good Video

Cold weather means it's Iguana dropping season!!! Happy Holidays, Cris and Jay!!! Myakka is cool!!!! Got to send an overnight there at their campsite! (greets from down here in Naples!)

@Tampa Jay happy new year

This is one of your best video's yet...but I'm a bit biased as Myakka is one of my favorite places in Florida. Sooo many good memories. Myakka has been a place that one can just get lost with their thoughts and immerse themselves in something other than their daily lives and thus, rather cathartic for me at times in my life! BTW...it's good you didn't see any wild hogs...perhaps they're finally clearing the area of that invasive species...and clearly not making the same mistakes made down in the Glades!

Speaking of the birds and wildlife acting strange they are doing it also up here in South Alabama also due to the cold .We live in a very remote area down on the Choctawhatchee River and the wildlife has been super abundant for the past week .My girlfriend has spotted a lot of unusual songbirds at her feeding areas in her wildlife habitats here .She has had a small flock of Pine Grosbeaks hanging out at the feeders continuously .They are hanging out with the similar House and Purple Finch flocks so a correct identication between the three is possible at about 4 feet in distance .They apparently got caught in a storm and directed down this way because they are way out of their normal range .At night the deer ,raccoons and other native creatures take over the feeders .They along with the bird baths are staying quite busy .She has spotted some huge bucks out there late at night feeding on the fruits ,nuts ,seeds and suet .We have a 600 gallon stock set up with a pump and heated bird baths .Fortunately our resident Black Bear sow is staying more down in the woods and nearer the river but does comes around to raid our honey trees every now and then .The bear ,venomous snakes and occasional bobcat have never been a problem here on our land .We just keep a safe distance and leave them alone .The house is full of lizards ,frogs and toads also but not an issue .Even the Eastern Bluebirds decided the kitchen would be a great place to hang out so she let them stay .They do not handle severe cold very well and can die if it gets too cold for them even with houses left up in the winter .They roost in some tall houseplants and leave in the morning when it warms up .They are familiar with her having raised several broods here over the years and her monitoring their houses regularly .I guess they decided they wanted a larger house to stay in out of the cold .We have Ruby Throated hummingbirds which do the same in the winter .She just puts out a feeder for the hummingbirds and mealworms for the bluebirds inside the house .She leaves a small area under the door open for them to go in and out of when they need to .No we don't have snakes inside we have plenty of dens ,barns full of hay and gopher tortoise burrows they use instead .The weather has been especially brutal up here in our area of Alabama with it getting down to 8 degrees not counting the wind chill .It may not seem that cold to some out there but it is for us down here in the deep south .Great video and you two are such a wonderful couple together .

Nice click bait title, y’all... 🤣 I love your videos, Jay and Cris! Merry Christmas from Texas!! ❤❤❤

Your welcome

A shame the tower is closed. It’s about 75 feet tall and sways quite a bit with the wind.

Jay, your videos are getting longer and longer. It’s going to take me 3-4 days to get through this! Happy New Year, though!

How are you from there now? Do you live in fl? I'm going to catch it!

It a cough horses get, the test should show negative, and you can usually hear the cough

TJ: Ta Jing ,lol

I can hear wedding bells oh Yes. Tr7e love I see.on this video soul mates you are guys. Love is the way.💖💝💗💓💞💕❣️❤️‍🩹❤️‍🔥💟

Florida is a different kind of cold. It's a very wet cold so people want to sound tuff from up north. Than they get here and freeze there asses off

No Bella stay away from the water🐊

It's actually illegal to release a tilapia back in the water alive.... I'd be cautious with this video

Jay. .. why does there have to be snakes ... eeeek , runs other way
