Just Vicky said...

Just Vicky said...

Bye for real gals!

wvgal_dana said...

Ok Vicky see ya later gal

floralgirl said...

Okay, Suzanne, that show is so funny, with Mrs. Bucket (IT'S BOUQUET DEAR) They are really old, seen them all at least twice. NOthting funnier than those British comedies to me- Hubby used to complain when I would watch, then I would catch him laughing!

wvgal_dana said...

Well the National Zoo DC camera preson is back at Atlanta....hee hee I'm typing that and they must have heard me saying it out loud as I typed it because the straightened the cam up lol

wvgal_dana said...

Suzanne what do you think it will be like down at Blackwater? Do you think you will drive around down there or have a lot of walking? Got any ideas?
Is Mits coming up to meet you all? It isn't that far from her.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Just found the new thread! Thanks.

Doreen, if you will email me your pic and info again, I will change it for you.

floralgirl said...

Dana, when you go to Blackwater you can drive throught the whole place if you don't want to walk. There are roads all through the refuge. When you follow the experts as they help you find eagles, they drive- you follow, then get out when they stop to observe. Or view from your car.

wvgal_dana said...

Buta Buta alone again !

wvgal_dana said...

Suzanne you have mail I think this is what you are looking for

wvgal_dana said...

Hee hee Buta Buta is getting chubby...that dumb camera person should have "zoomed in" right after Lun Lun left her alone all this time grrrrrrrr

wvgal_dana said...

My seagull is at CT nest

floralgirl said...

Suzanne, the Eagle prowl at 1 pm is the thing not to miss, the expert, Zeeger De Wilde has volunteered at BW for years he knows where all the eagle nests are, and he is a really interesting character. He helped me see my first bald eagle in the wild. Also at 8 am the bird walk(you really drive-following him to the areas where you get out and observe) with Terry Allen is great, he will take you to all the eagle areas, and help you spot and identify all the birds you see at BW- these guys really know their birds and are enthusiastic about teaching others.

glo said...

Cold Good morning temp wise, but warm and active in the bLOG ...wishing each of you a fun and great day. Blog the critters for me, will check in when I can.
you know where i'm going now! LOL

wvgal_dana said...

I don't know how they have kept Tai from doing it yet but he is not up a tree yet lol

wvgal_dana said...

Oh just hearing Foralgirl talk about the trip to Blackwater. Oh I so wished it wasn't that far away. Husband would drive me there but it is too far. His legs has been swelling. So that would be too far a drive for him right now.
I'm sure you all will share pictures :).
Maybe I can get to Penna Mar and hopefully see and know that I am seeing an eagle. I can wish hee hee

floralgirl said...

Might still be room in Paula's vehicle, Dana. Just ask her. I'm meeting her somewhere towards Frederick I guess, glad to take you along with me. That's why I enjoyed BW all the areas to birdwatch are accessable by car. Gotta go make breakfast and get out of here for work. TGIF!!!

MITS said...

GOOD MORNING EAGLE FRIENDS Beautiful day here, although a tad cooler. Don't forget to read the update from the zoo yersterday on Tians' reaction to his new yard, he did very well and they are really proud of him, as well they should be. Mei and Tai are exploring the new yard right now. Going out to see if I can see any remaing dolphins, before they head south.

MITS said...

Eagle gone at BW:(:(:(

MITS said...

Yes, SUZANNE I got to see the eagle.

Just Vicky said...

Anyone else having trouble getting into NU?

MITS said...

Isn't he just the bestest panda bear, SHARON? He is a smart one.

MITS said...

Yes, PAULA. I am!

MITS said...

nbc4.com On their web-site, at the bottom of the page, in the must see videos has new footage of 9 BABY PANDAS, they are soooo cute, check them out, when you get a chance.

MITS said...

Why thank you, NORMABYRD. I just love those pandas. I love those eagles and falcons and osprey, but you all know 1st place in my heart still goes to the pandas.

MITS said...

The BALTIMORE NATIONAL AQUARIUM released a sea turtle off the OC coast on September 8th and you can go on their web-site and track his travels, he is heading up the Chesapeake Bay.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Man, I wish I had been frapping Buta Buta just now. Was anybody watching. It was like she was trying to jump up, flipped herself over on her back and it scared her really bad. You could see her mouth moving, she was just a-hollering!

MITS said...

Going out for a little while, BBS! I'm starting to get hooked on that African-Cam, such beautiful bird-calls. www'wavelit.com

MITS said...

WISH THEY HAD SOUND AT ATLANTA!!!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

TAI is absolutely wonderful!!!

Just Vicky said...

Mits, it wasn't a virus, thank goodness!

Just Vicky said...

LunLun sure came to her rescue in a hurry! Poor Buta! I know how hard it is when you're so pudgy you can't bend over to put your pantyhose on!

paula eagleholic said...

Mits, Thanks for the info on the turtle, I'll have to check it out!

paula eagleholic said...

Next couple of days should be good sighting time for migrating birds after this front pushes thru!

Just Vicky said...

Normabyrd, it isn't the wax lifting that's the problem, its the "ton of lard" between my head and my legs! AND NO I HAVEN'T BEEN EATING THE WAX!!!!

wvgal_dana said...

Wow when I said I was going back to sleep. I didn't mean until 11:50.
Reading comments is a chuckle:
Glo's eagle flying over house wow

Mits seeing dolphins, she knows I love seeing them at OC. Of course the tracking of a sea turtle YES I'll be going to that site. I have a sea turtle t-shirt from OC getting to worn out told husband he has to take me there so I can get one I like again.

Norma and her wine lol

Sharon report about Buta Buta scaring herself (remember the sneeze video) poor Buta

Vicky remark about pantyhose had me visionizing Buta Buta trying to get into a pair.

wvgal_dana said...

Buta Buta is all alone close up

Mema Jo said...

Happy Lunch Time Everyone...
I have been watching Buta Buta Girl for a few minutes. Little squimmer, she is.
I really enjoy reading all the comments from this morning. You gals sure do have entertaining conversations - love it!
Momma LunLun has returned - I wonder when LunLun will take ButaButa out of the nest bed for a rest in the hammock?

wvgal_dana said...

Hi Jo humm that would be cute Lun Lun and Buta Buta in the hammock.

wvgal_dana said...

Ok got to make my bed can't stand an unmade bed...yes of course I'll be back in it lol. I'll be on top of the covers when I go back then.

Then I have to find at the Balto.Zoo about the tracking of sea turtle.

bbs=be back soon

Just Vicky said...

Hi again! Everyone having a good day?? Sure is sunny and beautiful here in Commode Town IL

MITS said...

ROFLMAO, just reading the posts and thinking of the poor panda mom when baby sneezed. Also, have a picture in my mind of VICKY covered in wax.

MITS said...

Beautiful seagull at CT.

MITS said...

Awww! Poor Mei was at the gates to the new yard, like she wanted to go back in.

wvgal_dana said...

If anyone wants a pick-me-up for the day go to this site:

http://www.aqua.org/geddyvideo.html

I cried and was happy too.
Mostly the tracking devices fall off after awhile.

MITS said...

Dark at the african cam, but, I just heard what I think were 2 bullfrogs. Don't see any animals, but the sound is just awesome!

Just Vicky said...

Hey, race time!

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks you Mits

Vicky oh a cold morning or evening we will be enjoying your nice fireplace. ty

Just Vicky said...

who

Just Vicky said...

wants to

Just Vicky said...

race

Just Vicky said...

YES YES YES, 2 needy travelers got more wax!

MITS said...

DANA About 2 years ago, they took a rescued harbor seal named SANDDOLLAR and put him back in the ocean down the beach from me, with a tracking device and we watched him for months, til he shed his fur in late June. It was just amazing being able to follow that little guy. The story of SANDDOLLAR may still be on the Aquariums' site.

MITS said...

Man, I know how to clear out a room!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hi, Mits!! I am here.

MITS said...

Hello!!! SHARON Do the BEAVERS have a game tonight????

wvgal_dana said...

Yes I seen that in there Mits and thought "wander if Mits seen the seal"...you did bet that was cool.

Thank you so much it was so exciting I sent the link around.

I read about the darn can't remember if yes I think it was a whale. Swallowed plastic and one of those balloons that Belle got Nilla...poor think couldn't eat then. They fixed it up and back to the sea it went. Love it.

Just Vicky said...

So, how about all of us getting our hot cocoa and afghans and curl up for a slumber party around my fireplace????

MITS said...

DANA I have been fortunate to see a whale right outside the condo a few years back. Coast Guard was guiding it back out to sea, because it was getting a little close to the beach for some reason.Wonderful sight!!!

MITS said...

Hi, DOREEN I was waving to you this morning, did you see me??

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

No, Mits, no ballgame this weekend. Next weekend is going to be a busy one though. We have a ball game Friday night and competition on Saturday.

Just Vicky said...

Yes, teddy bears are welcome! But you must keep it under control!

MITS said...

Yes, DOREEN I think that is the one I have been watching.

MITS said...

DOREEN is it the video of the 9 panda cubs? I sent everyone over to a local D.C. station to see them. Let me know if yours is different.

MITS said...

DOREEN your video was better, loved the snow pictures, and, your gentleman spoke the "QUEENS" English. The video I had, I needed the Chinese dictionary.

MITS said...

Here is something you will NEVER hear me say, "OK, I've had enough of Pandas." TEE-HEE!!!!! Truth is I CAN'T get enough of them.

MITS said...

Just for the record, I'm not deleting my posts....but it always seems to happen after I post.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Doreen, you've got mail!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

And, Doreen, I have replied back. Tell Lou to come on over!

MITS said...

Watching BUTA, just brings back sooo many memories of Tai Shan and his growing up and out. Love going thru this again. DOREEN I'm with you on the booties, just want to grab them...mu hubby will not give me the binoculars at the football games, because all I do is watch the booties of the players and make comments.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

You go, Mits. Take your own daggone binoculars! :)

MITS said...

You know I would if I could, in order to go to an NFL football game, you really have to strip down to the bare minimum of gear you carry in and you cannot have a binocular case and I'n not going to wear them around my neck. They also do a light pat down of you and check your purse.

MITS said...

A big HELLO to you LuLu I'm just going with the breeze letting my computer take me all over the world.

MITS said...

Yep, DOREEN, I'm getting a picture in my mind...

MITS said...

DOREEN Have you seen Mei and Tai make visits to their new yard yet? It is state-of- the-art panda heaven for all three of them, of course, all three will not be together.

MITS said...

DOREEN it amazes me everyday, I push this button and get on, while some friends and family think I am wasting my time, I really feel it has helped my mind stay just a tad sharper. I only wish I had more knowledge like some of the ladies on this blog.

MITS said...

Yes, LuLu I really enjoy my surfing the net, and, it is fun to shop also, don't have to get in traffic or find a parking space.

MITS said...

LULU you were just #150 and have received a half of can of WAX. We are sooo nuts here we celebrate when someone gets to a big number!! DOREEN will want you to give an acceptance speech now.

MITS said...

That's right LULU it just appears at your door, like a Christmas present. Yes, DOREEN, I still suffer from CRS!! Can't remember shi_!

MITS said...

Someone out there needs to send LULU the wax story.

MITS said...

Mei Xiang has her shaky ball outside, eating her biscuits

MITS said...

Mei Xiang has her shaky ball outside, eating her biscuits

MITS said...

I thought that was Mei Xiang eating the treats, because the other cam was showing the wollow tree and thought Tai was up it.

MITS said...

It is getting so hard to tell them apart except from the behind, Mei still shakes her booty.

MITS said...

I do believe Tai is up the willow tree, I can see a little panda face among the leaves.

MITS said...

GOODNIGHT, DOREEN AND LULU, ENJOY YOUR SHOW!

Just Vicky said...

A teddybear that pees on the RUG??? No, you get the critter potty trained before the slumber party!

Just Vicky said...

No one here for the 1/4 can wax race???

Just Vicky said...

OK, its mine!

MITS said...

Love the fireplace, JUST VICKY Good replacement for the summer flowers. I've been looking for some fall leaves, found a site, will check them later.

Just Vicky said...

Well helloooooo Mits! Place is not dead after all!

Just Vicky said...

Mits, I could send you pumpkins and gords with falling leaves, free!

MITS said...

I'd love to see them, VICKY I love this time of year, a little sad, perhaps, but much beauty and we are getting that much closer to BELLE AND LIBERTY rebuilding the nest. kalis5615@comcast.net

Just Vicky said...

Yep, another change!

MITS said...

That is sooo cooool, VICKY

Just Vicky said...

You have mail Mits!

glo said...

Tree changing colors is great!!! Vicky I love it!!!
Hi Mits Time for Feeding and walking dogs, getting hot drink etc. I will check back in in a little bit.

Just Vicky said...

All I need is an eagle nest up there in that tree!

Just Vicky said...

Mits, let me know if it has animation, if it doesn't I'll send it to you another way!

Just Vicky said...

That's 2 votes for the new tree! Thank you ladies!

MITS said...

No animation, that would be cool if it did.

MITS said...

Hi, GLO, Bye GLO

Just Vicky said...

ok, you'll get it again soon Mits!

Just Vicky said...

Mits, check your mail!

MITS said...

Checking now, got distracted, putting a new fall screen saver up on the puter.

Mema Jo said...

I like your tree, Vicky

Hope you & Mits are watching
Bad Boy Tai Mei just wants to eat her bamboo - but Tai left her her alone since they came inside. Such wrestling antics I've never seen..Love it when he goes around on his hind legs... then he sneaks up behind her & just grabs hold to the back of her head...Well, she has slammed him down a couple of times-but Tai just doesn't get the message.

Just Vicky said...

Hi Mema Jo! Missed you around here! Another vote for my tree!!

Just Vicky said...

Should I get the Christmas Tree up??

Mema Jo said...

No Christmas tree yet...Need more time to get ready for the season. Need to make it though Halloween & Thanksgiving!

Just Vicky said...

OK, where'd you all go??? IS it supper time???

Just Vicky said...

No, but it is near wax time!

Mema Jo said...

No chicks visible on the Brisbane ledge..

Just Vicky said...

Mema JO, you got my waX!

Mema Jo said...

I'll send it to you.... I wasn't even racing.........

MITS said...

LORD HELP HIM, that is where he had "the big fall".

Mema Jo said...

Mits Tai is soooooooooooooo
BAD! He does not know what 'STOP' means when his momma tells him that.

Just Vicky said...

Any luck Mits with the pics?

Just Vicky said...

Thanks for the wax Jo!!! 2 needy travelers need more wax!

MITS said...

None of them are animated, thanks anyhow VICKY.

MITS said...

I think she does not want to nurse him and that's her final answer!!!!

MITS said...

BUT!!! That boy does not give up without a fight...

MITS said...

ROFLMAO WATCHING HIM!!!

Mema Jo said...

I was thinking the same thing about not wanting him to nurse.... He sure isn't a quitter critter.......

MITS said...

Good Lord, Mei, give up!!!

Mema Jo said...

If I only had half of Tai's energy...LOL

Mema Jo said...

Look out Momma - Here I come at ya!

MITS said...

Me too...JO He just really makes me LOL!!!

MITS said...

Growling and snarling and crying and she still will not give in to him.

MITS said...

Hope he is this persistent when it comes time to mate with his lady panda.

Mema Jo said...

This kid is giving me heart failure...

MITS said...

He's doing the same to Mei.

Mema Jo said...

Playing in his little pool.......

Mema Jo said...

I thought he had calmed down - but did you see him try that little trick of backing up and then pouncing!!!LOL

MITS said...

Good Lord, they are back in the "big fall den" again.

MITS said...

Saw that, I think he is wearing her down.

Mema Jo said...

The end............

MITS said...

TA-DA!!! Mission accomplished

MITS said...

AWWW! She has her big paw over his little back. He is really going to sleep after this meal.

MITS said...

All that fighting for 5 mins of milk and now he is off eating bamboo.

Mema Jo said...

That's our Tai..........

I'll be back later this evening...
Need to buy b-day cards & get in the mail...........

Sharon disappeared early this afternoon.........Hope she knows she's missed.
Mits Did you have dinner yet?

Mema Jo said...

Buta Buta all alone Looks like she has a blanket of straw over her.

Mema Jo said...

That was a quick one... LunLun is already back...

MITS said...

Just now had the rest of my Italian cold-cut, left over from lunch, JO. Going to watch Ghost Whisperer.

glo said...

Well didn't mean to be gone this long, just thought it would be supper etc....but Deal or No deal is on and well you know how that is LOL...Besides many of you are probably into a Football game by now MTBR.. Anyway sticking my head in to say Hi back after the show.

floralgirl said...

Hello- Paula!! Hi Dana!!

glo said...

I was watching TV but am done with that for tonight. Getting ready to let my dogs out, make some hot chocolate and raid my cupboard for a cookie LOL

paula eagleholic said...

Cannot see a lick of the Brisbane Chicks!

paula eagleholic said...

Hi Floral!

Glo did you have to mention cookies? I am all out. Think I need to raid Floral's freezer!

paula eagleholic said...

wax

paula eagleholic said...

1/2 can Thank you blogger cop!

floralgirl said...

Did someone mention cookies?

paula eagleholic said...

There's the cookie momster!

MITS said...

Sniff Sniff..cookies, there cookies here???? No, cookies are here...tee-hee...Baltimore Berger Cookies...mmmm... nice thick chocolate...YUMMY!!!

MITS said...

With a nice cold glass of milk!!!

floralgirl said...

Oh, Mit's cookies sound toooo good. All I have is plain ole choc. chip.

paula eagleholic said...

I 'm out of cookies! Waahhh!

floralgirl said...

Sorry, Paula if you were closer I'd give you some from the freezer!

MITS said...

PAULA wish I could e-mail you some!!

paula eagleholic said...

Where are the Aussie chicks?

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Floral and Mits!

MITS said...

Plain old chocalate chip works for me, FLORALGIRL. How did the pumpkin ride go??

paula eagleholic said...

Gonna have to order some of those Berger cookies! Don't know how much more I can stand it!

floralgirl said...

Well, the lady who is in charge decided this morning I would lead the kids through the corn maze instead. That was fine with me, I prefer it.

paula eagleholic said...

How is their corn maze? Haven't been thru one yet. Was a big article in the Fred paper about corn mazes...kids have gone, I've never been.

MITS said...

That sounds like a lot more fun. Being a city girl, have never gone thru one.

floralgirl said...

Well, the one I take them thru is the "small one" it's still easy to get lost in there if you don't know the route. I try to make sure they make some wrong turns to keep it interesting. Have to have them in and out in 15 minutes, though. These were 4th graders and the woman in charge again made a last minute decision for me to take the last group of kids thru the giant corn maze- which I had never been in and will not go back into anytime soon with a group of kids. 20 minutes after walking around in circles, we emerged out the entrance! That maze is huge and really confusing, a real challenge for sure.

paula eagleholic said...

Sounds like you got lost!

floralgirl said...

Oh, big time lost! even the guy who cut the paths thru the maze says he occassionally gets lost in that one. I have the smaller one memorized!

paula eagleholic said...

Sounds like you still had fun though, Isn't that part of it, getting lost in the maze?
