Oyez, Oyez!

One Ojibwa offers
otter, osprey
obscure oquasso
owl, ouzel
out of old
open oxbow

Other Ojibwa offers
ocean oysters
Okie okra
ovoid omelets
or ointments
of orris

Old Ojibwa offers
odd oaks
occurring o'er
oozing oases

Oh, Ogre Ojibwa offers
only
oxidizing ozone
overhead

(Each of all 26 letters is represented as the first letter following the first 'o' in at least one word. I just had to make it a bit more challenging!)

(And just so you don't have to go looking, the oquasso is a fish, the ouzel is a bird and orris is the fragrent rootstock of certain yellow iris.)

I'd probably fall flat on my fanny if I attempted to curtsey... but this deserves one. *G* Ah, well... a gal can try... and there's no video *G* so...
