GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!
Thanks for the new thread. Any final word yet?
It looks Tai is up in the tree this morning. Hey, do you think he would go up our tree and fix the camera? Just a thought!!
BOOYA!!!!!! SHARON...EXCELLENT IDEA!!! I closed up the other blog, so my Good Mornings are over there.
Good morning Mits!! Went and read your good mornings! Bakatcha!
It is so funny because Andrew's band director's favorite word is "booyah".
Good Morning, Eagle Land!
:):):)
Good Morning Again on the new thread. Thanks Sharon seen the 2 eaglets at NU. Been watching "lil smurf" at Conn. He is strong today. Earlier took fish from Mom and ate it himself. Flapping them wings. Oh such a pretty sight for him.
They are waiting at Washington State for the first fledge; although camera is pausing alot.
Checked in at Blackwater. Lisa sure does a good job. I love the videos and the explanations.
The idea of sending Tai up that tree would surely be to his liking but I don't think he wants to do any work lol.
Mits you've been busy too this morning.
Could all say a prayer for Bird Girl due to someones uncaring of lots of birds. As quite a few had to be put down. Such a heavy burden and heart felt saddness for her to be involved in. The lose of such beautiful creatures.
No it is not that we are closer that she would be with any of you. It just happened I had sent her an email and it arrived at a sad time in her life. You all know how just at that time in your life something comes along...like this site.
Suzanne,
It may have been, I looked around and he was gone too, I did get a pic of him near the cam tho.
Morning,Mits,Paula,WVA Gal Vicky,Sharon, going to be a hot one today.Mits,your description of the beach this mornng sounded perfect.Ah, to be sitting on the sand with my feet in the ocean,if only...Back to reality,out to the garden again soon,after breakfast.
I got a pic of him wing flapping about 7-8 min before he left, think I'll send all to Lisa.
How exciting, another youngun takes to the sky!!!!
Are we sure that the osprey still in the nest is not the little one? Just wondering. Just watch this occasionally so I don't even know.
Tai is drawing quite a crowd, up in his tree.
Well the way Lisa keeps what with that nest. I'm sure we will know for sure because she will post it.
Though it does look like he did it.
Floralgirl when you take your flowers to market. Are they in pots or are they cut flowers?
That's the observation deck I can't wait til the new Fujifilm habitat is open. Hoping for better views of the pandas and other animals.
I don't know, could be a parent with the white head, but, SUZANNE would know.
"Lil smurf" is getting his belly really full today. Parent brought in another good size fish. He is munching it down. He might not be able to fledge today lol because he will need to "lighten" his load.
Last fall I had a squirrel that would come to my roof to eat who had a tail that was only 2 inches long. I don't know what happened to it but it was black on the end. Anyway, I haven't seen him in a long time and often wondered whatever happened to him. Well, looked out on the roof just now and there he is!! So cool!
I also saw yesterday what I think is my bald cardinal who is now growing something back on her head. Appears to be growing back pretty fast but no spike there yet! Mother nature is such a wonderful thing!
I posted something cute for all of you an the other thread...sorry no time now to repost, go read or MAYBE I'll go get it at lunc, unless someone could copy and paste it in there today for me. Got to go

Suzanne,
Looks like 1 parent and 2 chicks. The parent is solid, whereas the chicks feathers have white on the ends.
You've got to look at "lil smurf" at Conn. need a refrigator to put his fish in yes another fish lol.
Good late morning out there in Eagleland. I surely enjoyed GLO's comment on the other page-started my day with a chuckle. Great idea if we get Tai to go up our tree!
I've been thinking about the OpenHouse at NCTC - I am going to find out & pursue the idea to have an Eagle presentation included. Hopefully any of us who can attend will have our T-shirts - May be a good place to sell some items... I'll talk with Paula/Steve. Just gotta get the funds available no matter how small to get the best cam/sound next year. I need to go out for my regular exercise program but I will check in as soon as I return.
Everyone sounds really good this am.
WV Vicky,
Looks like Mom is eating there now. He must be stuffed!
Suzanne,
The BW osprey is still eating that fish! I have seen Mom looking around a lot too.
I don't think lol I want to be around for his "poop shoot" either. No NO Brad don't get that shot lol; "lil smurf" will destroy you lens. lol
The CT osprey is too cute. Last night Mom brought in a fish and he ate for along time, then Mom stole it back, and he slowly inched his way back to steal it. Think Mom was teaching him how to steal, then after a little while, Mom started to feed him.
I am lmbo that little guy at conn. "he couldn't finish the whole thing" parent is now eating it. He is laying there like "I'll never do it again" stuffed. lol
Suzanne,
Send Lisa any pics you have, she is not sure if Lil Bit fledged, she is hoping to get more photos!
SHARON you have mail. Get that CT osprey an Alka Seltzer...
Guess Mama let him have the rest...he is back to eating!
Suzanne,
Guess we'll know for sure when the nest is empty, and there are no shadows anywhere. Might not have and MT nest today, looks like it is hot and they aren't flying around much.
Got to go out. Check back when I get in. Let me know if "lil smurf" fledges at Conn.
PAULA Did you get my e-mail from last night?
All 3 osprey in the nest in CT.
Mits,
Yes I got it, Thank you. I hope he shows up.
I think you mean 3 in the nest at BW, Mits?
Mom, Dad and PapaSmurf osprey were in the CT nest about 15 mins ago, lots of action, been watching them all morning. Baby Smurf has brown eyes, been watching if he has been the one to come in and out, just not sure if he has fledged.
Gotcha, Mits. I missed seeing all 3 in the nest. Looks like one is on top the cam now, you can see their shadow. The chick has not fledged yet!
At the CT NEST, there is a parent shadowing the nest and there is a post to the left way down by the dirt road another parent stands watch, might need your magnifying glass, but I read on their page that that is one of their lookout spots, to watch for intruders.
Not sure how to take a picture for Lisa, would love to help out if I could,SHARON WOULD BE A GOOD ONE FOR THIS JOB QUEEN OF THE FRAPS:):):)
CT-CAM must be getting a lot of hits today, it has shut down on me twice and that never happens.
Mits, if you right click on the picture, then click on "save picture as" you can save the picture.
TU, Sharon, The Ct cam has a button for dummies like me. Just click and it does the trick...My God I sound like LOUISE LOL.
Did you see STEVENS'S UPDATE???
No I hadn't but I have now! Thanks Mits!
He also has a grizzley bear site in Alaska he wants us to see
I heard about that site on the news the other night. Bears eating salmon and stuff.
I guess bears don't eat ducks, geese or birds. See several there. That is cool except hearing that running water made me need to go . . . TMI (too much information), you all don't need to hear that part. :)
COOOL surfing the rapids DUDE. SHARON, help me out here, about 15 yrs ago, we were on a family reunion in a small town in WVA, we went whitewater rafting on the New River and the trip went down stream and ended at a very high suspension bridge. We were also close to a very beautiful state park. Any clues, I think we were close to the Kentucky border. I have always wanted to return to the place. I JUST LOVE WEST VIRGINIA!!!
Oh yeah...loo-time, as Jo would say...
Mits, that would be the New River Gorge Bridge!! In October they have bridge day and they parachute off that bridge. It is so beautiful there. It is not near Kentucky though. On the other side of the state. I love West Virginia too. Such a beautiful state but most people hear WV and laugh. Don't know what they are missing!!
Loo time for sure!!
Here is the link to the bridge site!
http://www.nps.gov/neri/bridge.htm
Tha's it, big time in October. Have you been to The Festival of Lights in Wheeling? Don't know why people laugh, it is one of the greatest States in this country.IMHO!!!!
TU, SHARON!
Hi al...home for quick lunch. My oh My is time flying at work this week. Sharon Thaks for copying over that other post!!!
Ok so I guess I need to go take a look at the Grizzly site. I have already been to the Loo since i've been home so it should be safe for a little while anyway. Depends
I am glad to hear grizzly's don't eat eagles...like they could catch one anyway although ya know they do have fishing in common.
I'll stop in after lunch. off to the Loo I mean grizzly cam
Its kicking and shoving at the panda cam...
2 eaglets in the nest at NU. All these cameras going but not the one I really want!!
WV Vicky Thank you so much for your comments, and for thinking of me! I do appreciate it, it's nice that there are people like you in the world to help!
floralgirl Do you grow your flowers in greenhouses, or fields or ?? You must have a huge property if you are able to have so many cut flowers to take to market every day. That would be such a wonderful sight -- fields of flowers in my yard... Do you have lilacs?
all: I'll be out most of the day today, going to lunch with a friend and then have to run errands... I'll try to do Hugo's post today :-)
Have a great day everyone!
Well I can't seem to keep the grizzly cam going as well as it seems to keep other peole going
Did anyone else have that trouble?
The Grizzly trouble NOT the going or growing problem LOL
I got to go back to work.
CYA later everyone
love the grizzly cam!! cool!
STEVEN Posted a new comment, but, he really did not post a new thread, correct.
Tai is lying beside Mei. She is sleeping and he is chewing on his legs! LOVE HIM!
YOU GOT IT MITS
Thanks, Paula, thought I was losing it.
Tai is trying soooo hard to nurse and Mom doesn't want to have anything to do with him.
It's a beautiful, sunny (overly hot, overly humid, maybe there'll be thunderstorms) day, All. Let's see some Cyber Smiles ....
I was outside yesterday when it seem way miserable inside, and even in the sun, with a breeze it was very pleasant. And in the partial shade of the eucalyptus, it was like heaven.
Blackwater Ospreys...
If you use the link just over the picture, you will see 4 photos from this morning which indicate that the littlest Osprey has fledged and returned safely to the nest!
Grizzlies, eagles ... pshaaww!! I saw a pic of a 67 lb. salmon somebody caught up north the other day that would probably take out either one of those bad boys! (hahahaha)
Jim
Very good on the BW Osprey! Great news that he came back!
wvagal
Were you the one with the bald headed lady Cardinal??
Have you seen her lately? I'm sure we are all on the edge of our chairs wondering if it was molting or not...is it growing back?
I've seen Hummingbirds temporarily with absolutely no tails, and that was weird-looking enough!
Paula...
Have you published your pictures from Sunday yet...did you get any of the eagles?
Jim
Jim, that was me with the bald cardinal. I do think it was her out here yesterday with feathers growing back on her head. She did not have the spike back yet but she looked a lot better than she did bald!
Good job "lil bit"!! JIM That was SHARONS' CARDINAL
SHARON you are too quick for me...
I'm out of here for awhile TTUL!
Thanks Sharon, Mits...
I'll sleep better ... isn't 'nap time' pretty soon? ... knowing that the lady's normally stylish look is returning.
Jim
Wow-it is HUMID outside today!Not as bad as last week,but still...Wv GAl Vicky,and Bird Girl-I start going to market late April with plants and cut flowers.I sell herbs,annuals and some perennials that I grow,by July,whatever hasn't sold gets planted along with all the other flowers I already had put in.All my flowers are field grown,I do have large gardens,do 2 markets on the weekend,occassionally do weddings(STRESSFUL), and lots of parties. I do have some lilacs,hard to keep the deer away from them,working on putting uop electric fence,appears to be the only way I will ever keep them out of my garden.
Jim,
Thanks for pointing out the Blackwater update, Suzanne and I sent in some of those pics!
I couldn't see that info till I refreshed the screen.
I just picked up the pics from Wally world, I'll get them on the site this evening. They are nothing compared to Todd's, but they give you an idea of how they soared over us.
Jim, hope you are not near any of those brush fires...stay safe!
Hummingbirds...
I haven't seen many around my feeder, but there have been telltale signs around the flower areas that the feeder has been found.
Well, yesterday I was on the balcony-patio watering the Geraniums (what's left after an attack of insect larvae) and checking the real weather; and suddenly a young Hummer (probably an immature female) dived in and began feeding very close to where I was standing (2-3 ft.).
And then I turned around and another Hummer overflew the area from the opposite direction and then returned, taking more than a half dozen long draughts at the feeder while 'clicking' quietly at me ... looks like the first one's brother. You can see he is molting by the fact that traces of the male markings on the head are becoming visible, which happens at the first molt.
A couple of beautiful, young birds...can't tell for sure yet, but I believe they are Black Chins.
Jim
2 EAGLETS IN THE NU NEST AGAIN. Boy, they hang out there a lot!
I still have to laugh whenever I look at the CT Osprey nest, that blue teddy bear smushed into the nest!
Baby Smurf is hanging close to the edge this afternoon. I am having a hard time keeping that cam up though.
Mine keeps going down too!
Just checking in - everyone seems to be doing just great! I am headed out again for a few hours..Dinner with a daughter.
The CT & BW osprey seem to have acquire a new set of viewers - that is great. You know even though you feel a loss you haven't been talking about the soaring eaglets, because you know they are OK! Life does go on! In less then 8 months we will be counting the new eggs in the nest! Liberty & Belle will not let us down.
Going out for a little while. Be back in a bit! Hopefully, no ER trips will come up or anything. More will be revealed!
No response to my earlier question Maybe you thought I was just kidding
anyway Is anyone else having trouble keeping the Grizzly site running?
Thanks
Steve, Glo, and whoever else tried to get the Griz Cam ....
I had no luck even finding the cam that Steve was talking about...did both Yahoo and Google searches ... they both list National Geographic, but National Geographic does not host that cam anymore!
I tried many other deadend links as well...no luck ... any suggestions?
Jim
I clicked on the link that Steve provided by the name of the cam,and it took me right to the sight,but my connection is too slow to really enjoy it.
Back from class.
I tried the link again and got it going. It is similar to our live cam, you need to download the realplayer link file and open that to get it going.
Keith has just told me that they have located another battery and will bring it out tomorrow first thing to see if that will fix things.
THANK YOU STEVEN !!wouldn't it be great if they could get the cam up and we would get a glimpse of our eagles one last time!!
Keep your fingers, crossed folks!
Thanks for the update, Steven!
I watched the grizzly bears for a while today. I had no problem with the feed. It was great, just that water running thing.
Thanks so much for the update Steven. I pray tomorrow will be a very good day!!
Woo Hoo Still have some hope for the camera YES
Thanks for the Grizzly information. I'll go try again...maybe just wrong time of day or something. I of course do have Real Player but it kept timing out on me, I could hear the water though LOL, picture herky jerky and then time out is what happend. Gonna go try again.
Thanks
STEVEN THANK YOU!
WOW!!!!! That is so exciting, STEVEN Looks like a baby grizzly, with seagulls arond trying to steal his catch. Seagulls are dumb!
I LOVE THE GRIZZLEY BEAR CAM
Osprey Mom in CT was just fussing at something to the right....
Baby Smurf playing pick up stix.
And pick up the sod, too. Thing he's trying to make a comfortable spot.
Between 1 and 5 Alaska time which is 5 to 9 our time on the East Coast, someone moves the cam around so you can see the bears trying to catch the salmon. I'M HOOKED!!!!!!!!!!!
Alright! Maybe just MAYBE there is a "little" hope????? Can't wait to see if a battery works! PLEASE WORK PLEASE PLEASE WORK!!!!!!!
Thanks, Floral Girl and the others, who added their info...
The bear cam did open immediately (more or less)to a 'refreshable still cam' with high qual pictures, and in the afternoon a dude changes the direction of the cameras.
Anyway, I clicked the link for 'modem users' at the right, and that brought up Real Cam like we use on this site, but it really never finished loading??....??
The pic provided on the site, while slow for modem users, is interesting anyway. The sound is interesting but get dull after a while...just turn it down or off, listen to some tunes on the stereo.
Anybody else out there a jazz & blues fan?
Jim
Jim
Mom is feeding osprey smurf. And I think there are 4 osprey in BW nest now, 1 parent and 3 babies. JIM I don't know many artist, but I like the sound. Listen to the local Jazz station here in Ocean City, Maryland, when I'm on the beach. Cool Jazz 97.1 on your dial.
I am not too keen about watching a grizzly bear eating said salmon but that was pretty cool.
SHARON Glad you are here. Here's the deal. You move up to Sherperdstown next Eagle Season, and NCTC puts you in charge of the cam, and you can manuver it around like they do in the grizzly cam. What do you say, are you up for it!!!! Of course Andrew might have to stay with relatives, or you can wait til he goes off to college. You would be perfect!!!!!
Mits, Next fall Andrew will be in Morgantown at WVU (WAHWAH) so that actually would put me closer to him!! That would be a really hard job, huh? I would love that!!
Going back out again. Be back in a little while!
I can't think of a better person for the job, than you, SHARON.
I'm gone for awhile too. Later!!!
*** Pictures ***
Of our visit to the tree are now available for your viewing pleasure on the Eaglet_Momsters site!
GOOD EVENING EAGLE BUDDIES----I have been out most of the day & have attempted to read the blogs--WOW---it's wonderful---we never run out of conversation---AREN'T WE A GREAT GROUP----MITS---I didn't know you had been white water rafting on the New River---that's beautiful country ---You mentioned the the New River bridge, & up above is the New River Gorge---God's gift to WV---they (developers) are trying to get permission to build houses up there---& they probably will---The bridge is on our "state quarter"---I love that area-----THANKS GLO---I received my "eagle package" today-----I was so happy to receive it----you have done a great job--The picture on the mouse pad is great----Spunky was in that same spot Sunday----& stayed there for 45 min. or so----That pic will always be in my mind---& when I remember, I SMILE---
JIM----I have been a jazz "buff" forever-----I love Miles Davis---to Billie Holiday---all the classics-----I LOVE JAZZ-----I like what we used to call progressive jazz----
Okay, I was wrong about Ms. Bald Cardinal. She is back out here, slick-headed as ever.
NORMA It was one of the best trips in my life, Surely God's country. The only damper was it was our 1st family reunion since my father-in law had died the previous April, we were there in August and I almost lost my husband and brother-in-law when they fell out of the raft. We had a guide and this was his 1st summer rafting and he got us stuck near a huge rock and the raft tipped and out went my husband and brother-in-law, some scary moments. We have it all on video and I would go back in a New York minute. Like I said before: "I LOVE WEST VIRGINIA!!!!!!!!
SHARON Maybe it is her summer-do:):):)
Mits, maybe it is her summer-do, cooler on the head for sure, but not very pleasing to the eye!
Sharon I've never seen a bald cardinal - why not take her pic? Like the plate? Right?
MITS the Grisslies are not really for me - Hearing that beautiful river really motivates one to go to the LOO! Plus, I don't have a fondness for bears- bear cubs maybe! Without a mother near by!
Paula Your pics that were added really completes that album! Seeing them just brought back all the feelings I had when I was there in person. I think everyone will enjoy them & know just what we were trying to express in words.
GLO Tomorrow is Thursday already. Hope this week went fast for you at work because by the end of the upcoming day you will be a Free Bird Congratulations!
Thanks Steve for keeping us posted.
Went to the grizzly cam; well first I thought I was at the ocean Mits with you. Then that sound got turned down "definetly not the ocean sound". Salmona must not be spawning (going up stream) cause those bears aren't catching much supper. Yes there was a guy moving the cam around. I will go back and retry.
Not quite like eagle watching.
Sharones your cardinal have more of pinkish feathers than red?
Oh yes went in an look at pics Paula added and I SAVED A BUNCH really really good pics. ty
I just looked at the pictures and they are absolutely awesome. What a wonderful experience you all had!! God is good!
Take a look at Blackwater is that two parents?
Just looked ,can't tell...Both parents were just in Smurf nest.
Only one parent in Smurf nest now ...going to BW
PAULA----Your pics great---as Mema Jo says, you feel as if you are there watching them----BEAUTIFUL---wasn't the sky "REALLY" blue---
Thanks for sharing---
THANKS STEVEN----I really enjoyed the bears---listing to the water & watching them was very relaxing---good picture----THANK YOU FOR TAKING CARE OF US!----You are GREAT----
Still can't tell, spidey web in the way or is it dew??
That osprey in CT is cute and he knows it...
ok didn't type that too well...re-try.
Sharon does your female cardinal have like pinkish feathers instead of red?
Back later....
wvagirl it does look (can't be sure with the 'smudged lens') there are both parents...the one on the rt. really looks like the papa.
Jim
My cardinal has the duller reddish feathers, not like that of a male. Except her head is skin blackish looking! As I speak right now, I have a male cardinal and 2 baby cardinals being fed by him. That is so cool. Except, I have seen them eating themselves when he is not here. They are just flittign their little wings like they are so helpless! CUTE!
Daddy cardinal just flew off and these 2 babies immediately started eating the heck out of this seed.
Fakers!!!! I always love the cardinals coming to the feeder, they are the last ones in before nightfall. I do miss not having my bird-feeder here at the beach
The parent left, the one on the left turned sideways, and now it looks more like a chick .........
Jim
lol Mits
Sharon I once had a female cardinal come to my feeder that also had its head messed up. Like it was molting or someone pulled in feathers. Looked weird but even more weird was what feathers were on her head were "pinkish".
When her feathers came back in they were pinkish and lighter than all her other feathers even on her head lol.
Well that's it for Blackwater Osprey for me tonight...foggy foggy foggy. See nothing.
CT osprey is flapping those wings really hard.
Good Lord!!! Looks like he wants to fledge now.
Try going to NU Osprey site lol funny
I am going to make an attempt to call it a night. Sweet eagle dreams everybody. Maybe tomorrow, we will get to see our babies again!! I PRAY, I PRAY!!
I hope your prayers are answered, YES, SHARON
Just a quick hello from my neighbors. I think my dsl router has gone out, can't get to you from my computer. Might explain why the grizzly's were a problem this afternoon too LOL. Hope you all have a great evening. Guess I can't see Paulas pictures tonight don't know how to get to the group from my neighbors computer.
I'll touch base with you all form somewhere tomorrow.
Good night all.
Night all tc sweet eagle/eaglet dreams.
Glo sorry your having computer problems hope they get solve fast.
Hope and pray we get the cam tomorrow....
GLO don't ya just hate it when that happens. Hope things get fixed soon.
Glad ya'll liked the pics. Might be a couple of more on another roll, but have to finish up the roll first.
Hopefully, we will have good news tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed!
Good night, eagle land!
Paula
Good Night all. I have had some of the funniest e-mails tonight. I am ROFLMAO!! GLO, I've just ordered 2 magnets 2 Guardian Eagle pins and a Teddy Bear for Baby Kalis. Only 5 weeks to go til the big arrival.. Peaceful dreams...
Goodnight All,
Sweet Eagle Cam Dreams.....
Good morning everybody. I really hope the camera gets back up today. At least we will know either way.
Make a good day. Try performing random acts of kindness today (but don't tell anybody you did). The rewards are great!!
For an eagle fix, there is an eaglet in the NU nest!
Suzanne, where are you this morning?
Good morning all...Man speaking of Random Acts of Kindness my DSL has been kind ot me this morning and I got right in here. I reset it LOL. Actually I did all kinds of things to it and my computer last night, and then as I went to turn the computer back on this morning I decided to turnt he dsl off and then back on again soon there after. Anyway whatever happened, I got right in here today. They make more than one persons day kind of a "little extra special". Wishing you all a "Kind of extra Special day today".
Whispering aprayer for the cam man today!!!
I love random acts of kindness.
Speaking of I love random acts of kindness Man I don't have a clue how it got to the end of the last post. I swear I typed it just before "They make more than one persons day a little extra special" My whole post makes more sense if you read it that way.
Anyway once again Wishing each of you an extra special day today.
Good morning, Eagle lovers!!OH, how I hope the cam is fixed today so maybe we will be lucky enough to see the eagles one more time.Keeping my fingers crossed...Well,Glo if we had more random acts of kindness,the world would surely be a better place! Paula-thanks for sharing your pics,they're great.What a wonderful evening that was,watching the eagles soar above our heads.
Good morning to all of you! Soar through the day! (Our eaglets sure will!)
Suzanne,sometimes that happens to me and the blog looks totally different,impossible to read.Usually if I refresh or leave and come back to the site it changes back to normal.Seems like many of us have had problems with the blog this week.
Good Morning Eagleland. Yes I too hope they can get the cam fixed. That would be so "special". I know I'll never be ready for it to finally go down.
They are waiting at Washington State Osprey for their 1st fledge there. Lil Bit is tired lol.
Gee Suzanne hope your page straightens out. Mine isn't any different.
Just watching the NU eaglet. Started mantling and I knew food was on the way. Sure enough, parent arrived with food, now we have a happy camper!
Sharon when is band camp? How is sons poison?
Band camp is August 6-11 and Andrew is getting better. Not itching as bad, drying up a little bit. Thanks for asking!
Lil smurf at Conn is eating on a fish. I was looking for a date he was born. I didn't see any information on him. He is so cute.
Good early morning to all! I usually don't make it before 10:30 eagleland time so it is 'early'. I didn't need to read too many comments - I think everyone is waiting, hoping and praying we get the cam up & running for these last remaining days. I would really love to see them at the nest again - I'm sure Spunky hasn't decided to leave home yet.
Chomping at the bit is what I am doing this morning, Jo! Keep waiting, hoping and praying.
mema jo I seen the pics of stuff from under the nest at the tree in the pics. There wasn't a whole turtle shell waiting for you?
Vicky-wvGal Whole turtle shells - no, they must all be up in that nest. Just the turtle head skeletons were on the ground-sorta gross looking.
Shot...I thought you might have a nice "turtle shell" on your end table for all to see. Sorry about that I know you had hopes of finding one.
GOOD A.M. EAGLE BUDDIES----I am praying----but I am also trying to prepare myself to accept the fact that it may not be fixed------PAULA'S pics are great---she didn't tell you she had to climb over & stand on a barbed wire fence to get those "dry bones" left by our eaglets----she was so brave---wearing shorts & sandals too----ONE BRAVE GAL----
ps---I swear I think I saw Spunky's skis leaning against that tree--------
I am wondering if the battery has to go up into the cam. Maybe Steve can let us know the progress of the battery with the next thread he gives us.
Hang In There Sharon. There's always HOPE I know we will all accept whatever is meant to be.
But I sure would like to see them all again
Jo, the reason I haven't taken a picture of my plate is that I don't have a digital camera and I keep forgetting to borrow one from one of my sisters. Keep reminding me and maybe one day I will. :)
Sharon Will do! Those eagle items from Bradford Exchange were really beautiful.
MITS Should be here shortly..She's checking her emails now!
NILLA should still be off work today. But her DSL should be turned on
GLO Last day of turmoil! Make it a good one!
NORMA Stay Cool!
BOOYAH EAGLE BUDDIES Got alot on my plate today, got to wax and polish, and that's me, not the condo, before my son and daughter-in-law come in tomorrow night, looking forward to seeing them. Haven't checked any bird-cams yet, will do that now. Keep positive thoughts. BRB!
MEMA JO Glad you are keeping a close eagle-eye on me, ya know it doesn't take much for me to get in trouble.LOL!!!!
Looks like smurf osprey is on the lanching pad, maybe today???? Going out to Seattle now...
I am hoping to get to the Open House in October. Maybe then I can get to meet some of you on here.
I've gone down to the tree several times as you know and sit along the road. Then report back in. Haven't been able to do for awhile.gettting withdrawal may need to take a trip.
My back and neck is too unstable to walk on uneven ground. But life is "good". I figure at the open house could park close and would be walking on sidewalk.
Sometimes I feel left out as some of you seem so close...maybe I'm just not a close person...I know the ones that has gotten together at the tree would definetly have to be close; look what you experienced together wow neat..
Ah, that nest is so full of stuff, I bet they are "Sleepless in Seattle" Ok, no throwing stuff at me MITS bruises easily
wvaga;_vicky, I was sure hoping you would be at "the tree!" last Sunday. I wanted to meet you!
WVAGAL We will carry you...
Ct.smurf osprey has the most beautiful brown eyes...his mom has beautful blue-grey eyes...love when they look straight into the cam...
Thanks Vicky from Il....We had that reunion on Sat. and that put me to bed all day Sunday. Then couldn't sleep Sunday night lol. Up and down thought I think I checked out some sights. If I would have known another Vicky would be coming in to comment. I would have left it just wvagal; but at momsters-group they told me I had to use a name even a nickname. Husband doesn't like me putting my first name on sites.
STEVEN, any word yet?
Mits I think mom is giving him flight practice exercises. I see her shadow up there sitting and he is like do it military style lol.
WVGALVICKY----When I first checked in with the momsters-----I wanted to meet you (jealous-I didn't have your name--WV) ho!---was so looking forward to meeting you---- a Byrd "watcher"---I knew you were my kind of person---SEE YOU IN OCT.---we all LOVE you---
Did you read that Pittsnogle signed w/the Boston Celtics---GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!!!
I think you are right, Vicky. As usual, I will probably miss him fledge after watching him all this time
Hey Suzanne,
Did you see Lisa's update on BW? She sent me back an email saying it looked like he fledged after she looked at our pics. Also, she is posting a new web log today.
Morning, all!
I got that funky blogger screen last night...had to post as anon...
This "name" thing does get confusing when you actually meet people in person -- YOU HAVE TO ASSOCIATE THE FAKE NAME WITH THE REAL NAME!" At my age, it gets harder to do! Or am I talking a foreign language??
NormaMy husband keeps me up to date on Pittsnogle.
Vicky Il lol I'm sure you are younger than me. Don't mind saying I'm 57, can't dye hair no more. Husband use to call me his "silver fox" now I think I'm white lol. It is what it is. Would love to add color but can't allergic to everything they tried. So this is me ...
Hope the cam comes up today. I am out of here till this evening, have to go work off-site. Will check in later. Hope to find the cam up and blog filled with comments. Keeping my fingers crossed!
SUZANNE I feel your pain, it has happened to me numerous times, and when I got on sometimes the blog-page was weird looking much like everyone was talking about this a.m. I wonder why it happens that some have this problem and others don't???????
I for one have had no problems with the blog but you have to remember, this is me! :) LMAO!
I want to be #200!
NEW THREAD!! BAD NEWS!
