    Pregnancy loss is so much more common than we think since it’s so…almost taboo to talk about. Both my children came after losses, one after 20 weeks. Seeing how it’s so common, you would think there would be more empathy, but it seems people expect you to just carry on without much acknowledgment for the most part. It’s wonderful to see that you’ve not just had ideas in the interim, but you’ve actually seen them through. That’s the hardest part I think, actually seeing your ideas through. Good seeing you and Fable again 🙂

    I live in New England in the USA. This video of Fable made me a touch sad for her as my resident ravens have been on the nest and may have already hatched this year's babies. I was glad to see your notice in my feed. I welcome any video you send of Fable. I absolutely understand how the internet can take a back seat to real life. I am spending a lot more time trying to teach my neighbor Ravens a little Spanish. I am also practicing my "gronk" LOL. So I am hoping they someday say to me "Ola, mi amigo!" They are listening and gronk back sometimes. I hope it gives you a smile to know there is a pudgy little old lady some where in New England, out in her fields, hollering "Ola mi Amigo" and gronking because of you and Fable.

    • @vannemocilac274
      @vannemocilac274 2 місяці тому +4

      Same here in Montana! I picked Ola! So no one else could call them in and harm them. I feed them dog food. I started with last years babies and I hope to see if the family comes back! Hi Fable! And yes, time is fleeting. Make a difference whether it’s caring for family and helping the planet and being curious about crows! Sending love and peace to you🌙😍🐦‍⬛

      As a Mainiac living in exile on the left coast, I miss New England but am making do with my scrub jays crows raven and red tailed hawks. I love the idea of a pudgy little old lady tromping the fields calling to birds. Makes me smile.😊

    Hi, again, Amy! I just watched the first Wild Spark video! Great job! Such beautiful filming, and your voice and commentary are wonderful! I am a 79-year-old grandma who will be watching to learn more about the flora and fauna of the British Isles, but also because I just want to support you and James!
    Would love to see Alfie (right name, I hope) again if you want to put him on another video.
    Prayers and good wishes for your family. ❤️🙏🏼‼️

Of course we all love to get updates on your falconry work, the birds and of course the lovely Fable, so I hope for a sporadic update every now and then!

    Just found you and will enjoy watching your past vlogs. Thankyou for your efforts. I'm a Horticulturist who is now studying to become an Ornithologist/Nat med practitioner for animals with App An. Science. Folks need to be in contact with the natural world, the diversity of and esp birds need peoples help to survive what we are collectively doing to them. Folks having their interests sparked with things like this is how they open their awareness to the plight of feathers in the beginning/usually. Wishing you and your family including Fable :) as much reign as you need to reach your mountain top. Special hug to the broody Fable. From down under, Raven

The most wonderful gifts I have ever received are some nesting materials brought to me by my friends the wild birds. Those of us so honored by wild creatures are among the luckiest humans ever!
