Thankful Thursday: We’ve Been Collared

Collars

We are now the proud, and thankful, owners of 2 beautiful handmade collars that we won at the Mollie and Jaylord Auction, and handcrafted by JoAnn of Sandy Springs Chesapeakes.  We are so thankful for these amazing collars, because…..  Mommy actually bid on a cat collar (she was going to give as a gift because our cats are indoors and don’t wear anything but fur).  When she won JoAnn asked what colors Mommy wanted but then she said she would make us a dog collar instead if we would like.  So….  Mommy ordered one for Sofie (because she is smaller and she figured it would be more ‘cat’ size).  But….  JoAnn made the first one too big, so she sent both and now we both have wonderful matching sister collars.  Yeah yeah yeah!  They are sooooo cool.  Thank you.

8.1.13 Thankful Thursday: Freeing Ozzie Osprey

Today is Thankful Thursday and I want to thank the incredible people at the Chesapeake Conservancy for their endless efforts in keeping the Osprey safe from us humans.  Ozzie the Osprey, the youngest of Tom and Audrey Osprey’s latest brood, was in danger after one of his talons became entangled in a fishing line in the nest last Sunday.

Ozzie, the 2 month old bird, could not free himself from the nest and would have starved to death.  His two older siblings, Chester and Essie, have already fledged.

On Monday morning, a two person team climbed up to the nest during low tide, and freed Ozzie.

The location of the nest is kept secret for the safety of the birds.  But, of course, there is video of the rescue and a live stream of life with the family.  This is ‘reality TV’ at it’s best.

Thank you Chesapeake Conservancy for giving us this incredible view into the lives of one of the most cherished birds on the Bay, and for your efforts to make sure that all creatures have a chance to survive.
