October has come and gone and once again it is time to open a new thread for the Gabfest.. During October we did finish the movie WILD MOUNTAIN THYME, complete with musical score, as planned. We launched it into distribution with its own World Premier. The Stars and most of the Supporting Cast were there appropriately dressed for their glitzy walk down the red carpet. Unfortunately co-stars EJ & ODEN and family were unable to attend as they are all currently on migration to Africa. Keith surprised us with some very interesting bird & wildlife reports direct from the Sahara Dessert and from his own equatorial Island in the Sun. His on-the-spot factual reports helped us to understand the dangers our osprey face once they complete their long hazardous journey. Our first music night was a smashing success that left everyone eager for the second.

Then we ended the month with a wonderfully thoughtful and caring discussion of the benefits or possible harm of the tracking of osprey and other birds. NOVEMBER will bring continued reports and DISCUSSIONS of our own “Special Three“, Tore, Bynack and Rothes who have arrived safely in Africa. We will be watching especially for news of Bynack who has been in an area that seems to be potentially dangerous. We will be watching also for updates of young Ozwold who was VERY reluctant to leave Bonnie Scotland, but is finally taking a stopover in Spain where Roy Dennis says he can safely winter. So, will Ozwold stay in Spain? or will he move south?, on his own unique time schedule? We will also be following the adventures and misadventures of other tagged osprey, including Einion who had us holding our breath while he made a huge circle over the Atlantic, his siblings from the Dyfi nest and others that may come to our attention. All this and much more is discussed on the Gabfest. We expect to have The Second Gabfest Music Night toward the end of the month. The theme is yet to be discussed & determined. This is the Freedom Forum, where fun, fact and fantasy combine to make a very unique thread. So come on in and chat a while with us. Our fire is bright and the latch is always open.

sugar, maybe next week but maybe we do have to realise it is not totally about Ospreys and maybe I was expecting more.
I did not like the report on young Gannets having to be rescued because of litter.
Was it a swan that was 29yrs old, only just catched that.
Look forward to next week and do have to say disappointed as an Osprey watcher and enjoyed the progamne.
B&B i was amazed at the amount of plastic & rubbish those birds had in their nests,
Yes it was a swan that was 29 yrs old, they are waiting for that one to return,
SUNSHINE, I do not know where I got the number 3, I did read it somewhere and I can give a top 10 lol. one "you are the sunshine of my life" yes reminds me of you. smiles friend lol
Maybe get in trouble as only know the name
sugar, terrible that people leave rubbish and no matter what they do not care!! Terrible to see the young Gannets entwined and some were set free.
Disappointed at Autumn watch tonight as I was expecting so much and look forward to next week.
Also hope for news on the 29yr old Swan returning.
deleted as Sunshine said confused and yes I understand and being honest I maybe the only one. Rubbish lol
I AM CONFUSED
me to Sunshine and reading back maybe re-write and that song is before my time but did hear it and the song makes me smile.
Maybe I should delete the last post and sometimes I do get excited lol.
"Henry Hall the sun as got his hat on" So typicaly English and maybe wrong again and do not mind
GOODNIGHT
GOODMORNING
Good morning Sunshine! I think maybe we ALL need some more sleep. I'm just here for a middle of the night crisis myself and I'm going back to bed right now, 4:18 am Ohio time.
Keith, I'm so glad that you are on the mend and am looking forward to hearing from you again. Maybe Just a small Hello whenever you feel up to it.
Did I just do a wee boomerang? But I'm really gone now. See yo'all later this morning/afternoon.
