[@fartsinthewind]

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 🙂

[@tygerstripes3752]

So happy to see you and Fable here! I understand your need to make your family your priority. Will definitely give your website The Wild Spark a look!

[@AM09286]

Im really sorry to hear about what happened to you guys last year. Sending you all well wishes xx

[@paulcooper8818]

Family and health are more important than KZbin videos. (IMO) Thank you for the update, wishing much success for The Wild Spark, and a peaceful productive year.

[@sapelesteve]

Sorry for your loss Amy. It's good to see you & Fable again. I understand why you have to cut back on posting and wish you the best going forward. Your new venture sounds really exciting. Be well & take care! 👍👍💖💖

[@PandorasJunkJournals]

So wonderful to see you and Fable. Really missed you.

[@MartyrDK]

Your family and mental health is more important then anything els. Take care of yourself. Hope when time is right you will make more videos on this channel :).

[@Humpyday]

Fable is precious. Thank you for sharing her activities and her chat.

[@kevinknight470]

Great to see Fable again, thanx for sharing, salute from the USA. God bless You and Your Family. 😃

[@FrankBenlin]

Keep collecting sticks, you never know. Thank you and Fable for checking in with us. Boop Boop.

[@Juju-ew4zh]

Very accurate

[@allyb5866]

Update has been up less than an hour........and it's lovely to see how much love has been expressed for you , Fable and your family. Wishing you every success in your new venture 🥰 Your content and delivery are always a joy to watch.

[@FalconryAndMe]

Thank you so much!

[@siobhan4243]

((((Amy & Fable)))) 💙😊

[@TheCrimsonRabbit]

I love Fable so much and I don't even know her. 😍 Thank you for sharing what you can when you can.

[@ccwhatsnew]

Thank you so much for sharing your raven and your life 😊😊😊

[@FalconryAndMe]

Thanks for watching!

[@menm_91]

So good to see you and Fable, and have a catch-up. Do what you need to do for you and your family. I'll be here, and may check out your other channel. I'm so sorry for your family's loss 💙💙 BOOP BOOP 🐦‍⬛🖤

[@c.e.5826]

Thanks for taking time out of your busy family and work life. Always great to get a glimpse of Fable.

[@Nembula]

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]

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🌙😍🐦‍⬛

[@patforte5513]

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.😊

[@nadiavoun7137]

Seems 2023 was a year of loss & moving for many folks. I'm deeply sorry for your loss. I've been there 4 times. You have my strength & empathy. Don't worry about this channel, though we do love to see Fable & the other birds. Focus on your family. ❤

[@NewMessage]

I'm sorry to hear about your loss, though I am glad to hear from you. I was beginning to wonder. I'm sure your new direction will really take off! We'll be here when you upload!

[@martylaughery9138]

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. ❤️🙏🏼‼️

[@ticketyboo1215]

Nice to see you! ❤

[@FalconryAndMe]

🤗

[@nancymelton-morales4674]

Oh Amy I am thrilled to see you. And I’m so very sad for your loss. You are resilient and creative and I look forward to see what comes next! Love that you are enriching family life for others. Big love to you and yours!!!🪶

[@AndrewSRapp]

Fable would make a wonderful mom.

[@Yeknodathon]

Thanks for sharing and wishing you and family the best for 2024. Lovely to see Fable again!

[@LindaR423]

I love the sounds that Fable makes and just everything about her.

[@beargawa4209]

Thank you for the update. Best wishes for the future.

[@johnlee7164]

Any news of Fable being well (as well your family ofc) is great! No worries!

[@jeanheys5327]

Wishing you and your family a beautiful future, one day at a time.

[@infopubs]

I'm so sorry for your loss. May the wild places that you love so much bring you peace and comfort.

[@elisemiller13]

Probably won't distract my old geezer self by watching about family things elsewhere, but I simply wish to express my gratitude for all the fascinating stuff you've shared with your birds and life walking with your little one, cross the hills when you moved. Sorry for your loss. May you and your family thrive! as you continue to assist other families to do likewise. Great well being to you All.

[@wozzocastro5978]

Thank you for your amazing update and the joy you bring to others

[@FalconryAndMe]

You are so welcome

[@endlessmtnwildlife]

It was such a lovely surprise to see a video from you and Fable this morning! I totally understand your KZbin fatigue, especially given your circumstances. Take care of what's important.

[@TheMorbia]

REALLY nice to see you wonderful couple again ❣️ Been wondering a bit where you did go? Much LOVE from Sweden ❣️

[@daniellev2901]

Hi Fable! 😍

[@bigbucketlist]

Lovely to see you two, out in the sun and looking healthy! I'm so sorry to hear that you and your family experienced this loss, and it's totally understandable that you need to prioritize the important things in life along with everything else you got on your schedule. 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!

[@startipper3767]

What a joy to see you and Fable again ! ! So sorry for your loss, please take such good care of yourselves ! ! Subscribed to your new channel.

[@msaditu]

Hi Amy, so happy to see you and Fable again! So sorry for your loss. I subscribed to your new channel and watched the videos. They are so well done! I hope you will get loads of subscribers.

[@bamboosho0t]

I'm sorry things didn't work expecting a new addition. But I fully understand taking a step back to prioritize family. Knowing you guys are happy & healthy is more meaningful. Take care!

[@anthonycapuano8554]

Very sorry for your family's loss. Hopefully in due course we'll see more falconry content. As a falconer ive always found your videos very helpful

Boop!... Boop!... ❤Thank you❤

[@diannajepson8708]

Wonderful to see you and Fable again. I think of you often when I talk to the wild Ravens I feed in my front yard. I'm definitely going to check out your new venture. I do a bit with wildlife in my own backyard, and with a local wildlife rehabilitation facility.

[@jenesisjones6706]

Thank YOU for giving me the opportunity to see something never dreamed of ever seeing.

[@ujona]

We are family no matter where we are in the world.

[@elainefletcher7787]

So lovely to see you both again. ❤

[@adriennedunne1748]

Oh, I've missed both you and Fable. Thanks for that. ❤

[@TheEnchantedDuat]

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

[@DebS819-TeamKentucky]

I was just thinking of Fable the other day and missing seeing you and Fable. But here you are now and it's a joy to see you. Sorry to here of the difficulties you have had. Understand where you are at now and know it's important to take care of you and your family. Congratulations on the new endeavors with the other projects. That is so wonderful you have two books published. Hoping all goes well with the new website and what you are hoping to accomplish. I do hope you can maybe every so often just pop on to say hello and share Fable with us even if it's just a short video. ❤🐦‍⬛❤

[@kmorse03]

Life drags us in all directions & we have to take care of our families/ourselves before we can do for others. I appreciate your videos & wish u the best in all your endeavors. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home, animals & life with us . 😊

[@earlwarren2265]

Glad to see you again with Fable. Everything works in life, and the best is yet to come for you and your family. God bless you and take care.

[@birbluv9595]

I’ve just dropped in here and there, as i know how time-consuming social media can be even if you’re just following several channels. It’s good to see you and Fable again, but of course you have to focus on your family and your new venture “The Wild Spark.” I’m terribly sorry about your loss. Please take care of yourself. Thanks for sharing Fable with us.

[@gigicostlow4414]

Thank you for the update. Always good to see you and Fable. My heart goes out to you and your family. The Wild Spark is such a wonderful idea! I will follow along for sure. Best wishes.

[@bodyofhope]

It's so wonderful to see you and Fable today! My brother and I quote Fable all the time ☺️ You've been though a tragedy, take as much time as needed to grieve and rebuild. We often don't give other ppl or ourselves enough grace to heal. We'll be here when you're feeling ready. God bless ❤

[@alfascorpi]

Lovely to see you again. God bless, hope to see an occasional update. Good luck on the new things at hand. Greetz from the Netherlands

You guys are so great. Love from Denmark.

[@ForestRaptor]

Always put your health and that of your family front and center, sorry about the hard times you had to face together. Wishing you all the best and so glad for taking the time to update

[@phil6031]

Family and real life always comes first. So sorry the family news, but really made up to hear about The Wild Spark, it's very inspiring and wishing you every success in that endeavour! Ever more refreshing to still have one of the old school genuine, video-when-they-happen kind of channels. Always love seeing the new content whenever you get chance.

[@rachellane2836]

So good to see you and Fable. We'll be here whenever you have the time and energy, but take care of yourself first. ❤️

[@djmcdowell746]

What a beautiful area!! Love your bird, Fabel, and talks together! From, BC Canada. Love, 💕🕊️🙏Debbie.

[@thetooginator153]

Thank you for sharing beautiful and sweet Fable with us! Your videos made me appreciate birds more - especially their intelligence. You’re right, our time isn’t infinite, so we need to look out for our well-being. We can always watch your fun and interesting videos that you have already posted, but I hope we’ll see more of you and Fable the Fabulous in the future. Oh, and you might consider having large glasses handy if Fable picks up sticks and hops on your arm with them. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if Fable knows to be careful with sticks around people’s faces.

[@danishaussie63]

Woo hooooo, what a great Satdy night seeing you have a new post. Hello to you,hubby and bubs and off course a big 'boop boop' to Fable. Im sure I can say on behalf of so many people that we have missed you. How lovely this new business you guys have sounds, and I dont doubt it will be brilliant. So sorry to hear of your sadness, and off course have to put your family first. We will all be here when if and when you are ready to do more. You know, you could write children's stories on Fable and us adults off course would have to read them...and then read them to the kids lol. Look after yourself and your family. Big hugs from me, Maria from Perth Western Australia.... it really was so nice to see you and Fable again...'boop boop' xox

[@timf2279]

Thanks for all you do. It's appreciated.

[@patforte5513]

Amy Nature has a way of healing the heart and restoring hope in families and especially with children. You and Fable are great ambassadors of this way of life. I know your new venture will thrive and I look forward to peeks of Fable from time to time. I think of her often as the local ravens gronk and soar around my home. Wishing you peace and health.

[@user-oh4gp6xp9t]

Lovely to see you and Fable again :) Will definitely be sharing the Wild Spark detail. All the best to you and your family (including animal family).

[@Hairball786]

Good to see you again.

[@Neilhuny]

Delighted to see you back! Sorry to hear things didn't go as well as might be hoped for re babies. Good luck with your new ventures and I look forward to seeing you, occasionally, here on Falconry & Me. Big hugs

[@patchdavis35]

When Fable finds the perfect sticks, about 7:42, we see her running up to you with her prizes. I also interact with wild birds where I live in Florida. 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!

[@KatieLeary]

I missed you and Fable! Thank you so much for posting this update, and good luck with The Wild Spark!

[@joenewman6494]

Thanks for the update, I was wondering where you had gone. Sorry to hear your bad news, hopefully you will have opportunity to fill the void. Your priorities are right - family first and foremost, then work, then KZbin and other interests. Please don't forget us, and do drop the occasional update on yourselves and Fable. God bless.
