…So well that there will be an unscheduled

FREE PREMIERE SCREENING TONIGHT (Monday 7th September) AT 18:30 PM OF THE UPCOMING PBS/NATURE SERIES FILM “CLOUD: CHALLENGE OF THE STALLIONS”

Preceded by the animated short, PERCHANCE TO DREAM

COMPLIMENTARY VEGAN BUFFET FOLLOWING

The award-winning PBS series NATURE has generously given Blue Planet Film Fest the World Premiere screening of CLOUD: CHALLENGE OF THE STALLIONS ( http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/cloud-challenge-of-the-stallions/introduction/936/). This stunningly beautiful film will be a free event as part of the Fest’s closing night. The film will be premiere on the PBS series, NATURE October 25th.

CLOUD: CHALLENGE OF THE STALLIONS is the latest of three in a series that started in 1995 documenting a wild white mustang from foal to stallion living in the mountains of Montana.

Blue Planet is also pleased to have Arizona horse rescuers Kim Meagher and Skip DeNardi of WildHorse Ranch Rescue here to talk about the 11 wild mustangs they are readying for the first National Adoption Day the Bureau of Land Management is holding later this month in Prescott, AZ.

CLOUD: CHALLENGE OF THE STALLIONS will be screened at 6:30 in our main theater at the Santa Monica Women’s Club, 1210 Fourth Street just south of Wilshire, Santa Monica 90401.

Not bad for a Film Festival that is - of right now - just two days old!

If you live anywhere near Santa Monica and want to get in on the tail end of what looks to be Mira Tweti’s most successful campaign yet get yourself down there ASAP!

Charlie works for an airline and has birded all over the world for twenty years. He wants to be a writer, and thinks no-one would believe his life could be so charmed if he didn't take photos of as many of the birds he sees as possible. Blogging with 10,000 Birds fits his aims, needs, and insecurities perfectly. Really - do birders get much more fortunate than this?

Social Media workshop

Guunar Engblom is rapidly becoming birding’s most enthusiastic social media networker, using Twitter and Facebook to promote his excellent blog. To be honest we here at 10,000 Birds aren’t quite convinced of the benefits, but perhaps the best way for mild sceptics to find out for sure would be to join Gunnar’s FREE 31 Day Social Media Workshop. The details do sound interesting, Gunnar is one heck of an enthusiast, and clicking the link doesn’t commit you to anything…

Lolcats antidote

Easily offended? Think ‘cute’ pics of ‘cute’ cats saying ‘cute’ things in baby language is really - er, ‘cute’? Well most definitely DON’T read this sublime post on the very naughty Reservoir Cats because you’ll probably be unhappy and want to complain to someone who won’t listen. Everyone else - ENJOY!

The Birder’s Report becomes a Species Champion

Excellent news from Larry Jordan, the force behind The Birder’s Report: he’s joined BirdLife’s ‘Preventing Extinctions Programme’ as a Species Champion. The PEP focusses on saving the 192 most threatened birds on the planet, and with supporters with the conservation creds of someone like Larry perhaps it will become far better known in North America than currently. Let’s hope so - and who’ll be next to join I wonder?
