Just Vicky said...

I was polite and told them all "new thread!" but no one has come over yet! And this one way conversation may get me in trouble again with blogger in the sky!

Just Vicky said...

Just Vicky said...

Pretty good, now I can blog and no one is "in the house!"

BBL

Mema Jo said...

Just couldn't let you hit #17 without a break LOL

I need to go find bright ORANGE pumpkins for front porch.

paula eagleholic said...

Jo,
Have fun pumpkin hunting! Thanks for dropping back in!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle all gone at BW...

Mema Jo said...

Tai is giving Mei a hard time. All Mei wants to do is lay over the tree trunk but Tai is climbing all over her & biting her to get her attention. Tai can't budge her.. Very Very laughable.

Mema Jo said...

I can get very tired out from just watching Tai. He is a 'die hard' for sure. Mei has dumped his off of her numerous times & he just climbs back!

LunLun holding Buta Buta and she is visible.

Eagles gone for now from BW.

paula eagleholic said...

Go Skins!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Been lurking a little today and being lazy. Just had to go to Lowe's to get parts to fix my bathtub faucet. Oh yeah, I fogret to tell you that I do plumbing around here too! :)

MT nest at NU. Can't see whose butt it is at National Zoo cause the camera off to teh side a little bit. No longer an MT nest at NU!

THERE IS AN EAGLET AT NU!!!!!!

paula eagleholic said...

OMG eaglet at NU!!!!

paula eagleholic said...

He is eating a fish!

paula eagleholic said...

Sharon,
I am also the plumber, electrician, fix-it-woman, etc around my house too!

paula eagleholic said...

Poor NU eaglet hardly ever gets to eat in peace...blackbirds are bugging the crap out of him!

movin said...

Well, I don't know what all the fuss is...I got in with no troubles...I'm ducking!!!!

I hope you are having as beautiful a Sunday as we are blessed with today.


Did you get the 'First Kiss' e-mail I sent last night? Wasn't that beautiful?

Your eagle buddy,
Jim

paula eagleholic said...

Raining at NU and still gettting pestered by crows...

movin said...

Speaking of blackbirds, Paula, Friday at work I saw a group of 3 crows (which nest in the area) 'mobbing' a good-sized falcon out of the area. The falcon seemed totally occupied and lucky to escape.

In the spring the Mockingbirds are constantly mobbing the crows and other predatory birds out of the area.

Jim

movin said...

So, Paula, what do you charge for maintenance jobs??

I can do it, but I'm getting lazy in my old age and try to avoid it as long as possible.

Believe it or not, I will even do blogs and such to avoid honest work.

Jim

Mema Jo said...

JIM Sent the 1st kiss to Geula thnking she will really enjoy that one.

movin said...

Haha, Mema jo,
I bet Geula will appreciate it too. I was thinking of her but didn't have her e-info. She hasn't been writing much lately...something to do with the recent hostilities?

Jim

Mema Jo said...

Not certain why we have not heard from Geula in so long of a time - not even a puzzle from her. I have emailed several things to her - but no response to date.

movin said...

Hope nothing happened to her, but it's probably security related.

Jim

paula eagleholic said...

Jim,
Might cost ya! You are on the west coast!

I would rather blog and surf than do grunt work any day!

Mauley said...

Mema Jo and other Momsters, good afternoon. How do you get the eagle at BW, does he get in osprey nest. Send link asp I need an eaglet fix. Love donna

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Has anybody looked at the Frodocam today? Not a chick in sight!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Donna, the link is:

http://www.friendsofblackwater.org/camhtm.html

Although there is no one in there at the moment.

Mauley said...

Thanks so much, so they do get in the Osprey nest, parasites or what ran them away? thanks again Sharon, I had that site marked, but I can never get on there in time to see anything. thanks donna

glo said...

Hi everyone. Not blogging much todya. Eyes need a break I think. it isn't quite a sore now but itchy and runny. Maybe it has something to do with all those weeds and wild flowers I cut back a couple of days ago. Polin or some such. Hope everyone is having a great Sunday. First time we have had warm and sun in a long time here, and not forecast to last too long.

Blog at ya later.

BUTA BUTA ALL ALONE

If you like to watch bears you might like this place.

Mema Jo said...

I guess I prefer the Zoo bears. Being a camper during my lifetime - I always have had a fear of waking up with a big bear staring me in the face.
Like - Worst nightmare ever !

Mema Jo said...

BUTA BUTA ALONE !!

Mema Jo said...

Someone spotlighting or taking pictures of Buta Buta.

MITS said...

eaglet resting at NU

MITS said...

MT nest at BW...Tai and Mei are in for the night.

MITS said...

Tai is back in the den where he had the "BIG FALL".

MITS said...

Now he is back in the other den, bugging his Mom.

MITS said...

Tai is happy now, he is nursing.

Mema Jo said...

Still can't see any of the chicks on Brisbane cam..........

Hi Mits

This afternoon outside area, Tai gave his mom a good going over. Piggy Back & all. He fell off the log a couple of times - but you know Tai - right back up & into it again.

Just Vicky said...

Hellloooooooooooooooooooo, I'm back!

Mema Jo said...

Welcome, Vicky
Not too much going on this afternoon.Everything very quiet.

Just Vicky said...

I figured that much out! Everyone afraid of the the "Blogger Cop?"

Just Vicky said...

THe cop got me in the race for, of all things, more WAX!

Just Vicky said...

Guess I was speeding!

wvgal_dana said...

Eagle NU

Just Vicky said...

Sad thing is, that cop doesn't even give you one word of explanation, he just plucks you right out of existence!

MITS said...

Mantling eagle at NU.

Mema Jo said...

Beautiful eagle fix at NU --
Thanks Dana & Mits

wvgal_dana said...

Hi Everyone

Was checking cams before I came in and found the eagle at nu and knew you wanted an eagle fix.. do you see how whitish that eagle is???

Just Vicky said...

Baby alone

Mema Jo said...

BUTA BUTA ALONE AGSIN

Mema Jo said...

Now that is a very good close up - glad the camera decided to do that.
Really getting that fur !!!

wvgal_dana said...

Mommy is back

Do you all think our Eaglets have that much white in their coloring as that one in NU???

Mema Jo said...

Momma LunLun has returned!
Dana The eaglet at NU still does have lots of the downey white feathers. Maybe it is younger then ours. He comes back so often to the nest & usually the adult is near by. Wonder if and when he'll migrate. Paula said the nest this season had 2 eaglets, but I keep thinking we are seeing the same one.

glo said...

Video of Buta Buta rolling over ...Boy or girlfrom last night. I just heard from someone that they couldn't get it open. I am wondering if anyone else either had a problem with it oR did get it open. Not sure if I ned to resend to one, all oR maybe it is too big to be sending for you to import and open. Only heard from one other and they didn't mention any problem...just took a guess at bOY or Girl...so I assumed it arrived oK until just a few minutes ago when this email came.

Mema Jo said...

Looks as though Mei & Tai are in their own den...
Little Ledge Lodger

wvgal_dana said...

Glo I saved that video you sent of the "roll over" to my desktop and it opens just fine ty for the send.

Mema Jo said...

Glo I had no trouble whatsoever opening it. All that you have sent me have opened.

glo said...

OK I am going to retry sending it back to this one then . Helps a lot..TY

wvgal_dana said...

Yes Jo you are right there was 2 from the NU nest. I also believe this one is the only one coming back to nest. I just still don't remember ours having when it spreads its wings all that white. Oh well.

wvgal_dana said...

Your very welcome Glo....

Mema Jo said...

NU
WHAT A POOP SHOOT !!!

wvgal_dana said...

Jo do you just "Open them" or do you "save them" then open ???

Mema Jo said...

I view them from the email. Then I save the email in a special folder.

Mema Jo said...

Daughter just popped in to visit
BRBIALW

MITS said...

eaglet just flew off at NU

MITS said...

I've been seeing 2 different eaglets at NU, one of them does not have as many white feathers.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Eaglet back at NU!!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

How is everybody?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

MITS said...

eaglet is back at NU

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Snuck right in and got that one!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hi Mits!!!

Eaglet just few up in the branch above the nest, now back in the nest.

Mema Jo said...

MITS I just now looked at the eaglet - I was saying I only thought we were seeing the same one....NOW I have to change my story after seeing this one. I guess that both of them are hanging around..........

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Still no sign of the eyasses. It is 8:15 Monday morning there so maybe somebody will come and move the camera soon.

Mema Jo said...

CONGRATS #100

SNUCKER GOT IT !

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hello Mema Jo!

wvgal_dana said...

I'll have to watch more carefully for that Mits.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

The little ledge lodger is at his favorite spot again. Mei is roaming around.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I think there are 2 different eaglets at NU too. Wish we could see them both in there at the same time. I did when I first started watching but it has been a long time.

glo said...

Tea and BLOG for a little bit time. Glad the Footbal game went great for you andaNDREW sHARON

Looks like the eagles have been taking really good care of everyone!!! I guess maybe i need to go head ofr one of those cms. Not sure whihc one, will read the most recent first and then have alooksee an eagle fix would be good1!!

glo said...

OK NU nest looks empty shall I sit and watch a while is there one in a branch oR do I go to Blackwater

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I hope the eyasses are just out of the camera's view and something has not happened to them!

glo said...

Hi Sharon Just about done with my tea. haven't seen a critter except Lun Lun in like 10 min.

Mema Jo said...

BBL

wvgal_dana said...

I know there was 2 in NU but I'll be watching more carefully since Mits said both are returning. One has less white.

wvgal_dana said...

Buta Buta alone again

wvgal_dana said...

Mom isn't very far away you can see her shadow moving at times.

wvgal_dana said...

bbl

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

9:04 a.m. Monday and still no change in the Frodocam.

MITS said...

Hello!! One of the eaglets white feathers almost form a V when the feathers are tight. The other as someone has mentioned has a lot of fledge feathers still, both are beautiful, as are, the adults. Good to see them.

MITS said...

EARTH TO BRISBANE, MOVE THE CAM!! YOU HAVE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD WATCHING.

MITS said...

Tai is in the first den and Mei is in the BIG FALL den.

MITS said...

Tai is in the first den and Mei is in the BIG FALL den.

Mema Jo said...

There was a comment by anonymous around 3pm today giving us a link we might like to watch:

"If you like to watch bears you might like this place".

http://www.zoo.org/bearcam/cam.html

This is wild bears & there was one on the cam when I opened it. I don't know when GrizzlyBears is back on.Just haven't checked it out recently.

Mema Jo said...

Mits
You stuttered

MITS said...

I saw that JO, it took about 45 seconds for it to post and I didn't touch it, thought it was not going to post.

MITS said...

Grizzlies in Alaska are off-line and Peter's Pond in Botswana, that was supposed to replace it, still is off-line also.

floralgirl said...

Jo, thanks for the hummingbird cam sight,it looks cool. Hopefully I can get it to work with dial up, not sure.

MITS said...

BUTA BUTA all alone

MITS said...

Lun is back.

Mema Jo said...

Megan Jennifer stopped by & I pulled it up for her - there were about 10 around the feeder.. I flipped out! My hummer, I don't think, is coming back anymore. Has yours been around.
Wonder how the parakeet is doing at Suzanne's!

Mema Jo said...

Mits As often as LunLun leaves Buta Buta, I suppose it will be this week sometime soon when they examine the cub. Boy or Girl ??? I want it to be a little girl...

MITS said...

Great pic of Lun and cub.

floralgirl said...

I still have 3 here, Jo. They seem to all be females. But they never share a feeder! In fact they spend all day chasing each other from them!

MITS said...

Me too, JO. She sure seems docile like a little girl. I think this is the week that they can lure Lun out with some treats.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I think I am going to boycott Frodocam! This is ridiculous!

Lun Lun is all hugged up to Buta Buta, who I say is a girl!!

floralgirl said...

Yea, I'm really ticked off about the Frodo cam too. Can't see anything all day , why doesn't someone adjust the darn camera?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I just sent an email to Frodocam to see if they could possibly change the view so we can see the chicks. Wonder how many of those they have received?

MITS said...

Probably a gizillion..

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Frodocam is now showing the chicks. I AM THE ALL POWERFUL OZ!!! :):):)

Mema Jo said...

I don't believe you, OZ

floralgirl said...

WOW, I bow to you, your powers are extraordinary!!!!!

Mema Jo said...

I don't mind seeing the pandas sleeping on the rocks - they somehow look comfortable BUT Peeps on the pebbles No way do they look comfy.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

No, Mema Jo, peeps on pebbles do not look comfy at all.

I think I am going to bed soon. Might check back in one more time before it is official!

MITS said...

WE'RE NOT WORTHY! WE'RE NOT WORTHY! UNBELIEVEABLE! SHARON

MITS said...

Just letting them know you are from Bluefield, West Virginia, must really impress them.

floralgirl said...

Oh, please Oz, I've just gotta get back to Kansas!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I am sure the Bluefield thing is what got 'er done!! :):)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

wax

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

hahahaha

floralgirl said...

Well, we should have expected that!!

floralgirl said...

OMG, perhaps you are an imposter, the cam won't open for me now at all!

MITS said...

One of the chicks is awake.

floralgirl said...

Oh, please accept my apologies, great and powerful OZ, cam is back up.

Mema Jo said...

The chick that is awake is standing guard duty. When someone tries to get on the ledge to fix the cam, he summons F&F to divebomb the intruder.

Mema Jo said...

BUTA BUTA IS IN VIEW

MITS said...

Buta is quite plump.

Mema Jo said...

Plump & Pretty


Megan do you get the LunLun cam up?

floralgirl said...

Well, the panda cam comes up, but it is real slow. Has to constantly buffer picture, then shows me just a little bit of pic before it starts loading again.

Mema Jo said...

Chick fell asleep on guard duty.

Mema Jo said...

Here is the Sunday LunLun/Cub Update:
Sunday, September 24
Lun Lun and her cub continue to do well. Lun Lun is putting the cub on the floor occasionally now even when she is not leaving to eat or drink. Whenever Lun Lun put the cub on the floor in the first week after it was born it vocalized loudly. Now, it is usually quiet when she puts it down. It also usually remains quiet when she leaves it now. This is normal and means the cub is able to tolerate being left for longer periods of time.
Dr. Rebecca Snyder

MITS said...

Going to sign off for tonight...trying to finish packing, heading to ocean tomorrow, til Saturday. Have a good night and good day tomorrow.

floralgirl said...

Well, time for daughter to go to bed, sure I won't be far behind her. Still not feeling 100%, need to get some rest. Nite all.

Mema Jo said...

I'm not staying here all by myself either. Cyber Monster might come by!

Good Night All
Sweet Dreams



Good Morning Suzanne

glo said...

Hi Got some wing flappin going on down under already My oh My...and how is everyone tonight?

glo said...

glo said...

Well I guess I'll stay here for about 5 and if no one comes in I too will just call it a day.

paula eagleholic said...

Thank goodness it's Monday in Brisbane...couldn't stand that cam much longer...they need a weekend crew!

Looks like everyone has hit the hay early...I'll be here for a while...

Lots of eagles at NU today..:) glad some other folks got a peek..

paula eagleholic said...

Glo, are you sure you don't have pinkeye?

paula eagleholic said...

Chicks are all snugged up in Brisbane...spidey is back at BW..

Just Vicky said...

Sounds like pink eye to me!

glo said...

LOL Oh looks like 2 more are kind of thinking what I am ..No I'm not sure . But I did pull lots of tall weeds on Thus and helped to load them in a truck on Fri. Woke up with it sore and bloodshot on Sat morning

glo said...

I haven't been around any kids or anything where I think I owuld pick up pink eye bUT guess you never know for sure. I think I got some pollen or small piece of weed stuff int here but I didn't feel it happen if that is what is going on. it isn't turning into a stye though :-)

Just Vicky said...

Probably need to go get it checked out Glo !

paula eagleholic said...

Glo,
You may have scratched it..does it hurt, too?

Just Vicky said...

Catch you all later, I'm out of here for a while, need to go "shoppin" at Glo's place! Need a sweatshirt and a mouse pad, trying to resist another picture of Todd's, not resisting too well so far!

glo said...

It was really sore last night. I have not been at the computer as much today as last night I still wasn't sure it wasn't a stye forming. Today when it started running and itching I thought nah its not gonna be a stye. Still a little sore but more itchy and weepy. I'll decide tomorrow whether to just wait it out or go see someone. Tuesday NOT an option, have to go to this Seminar...will leave home aobut 6:30 am...LONG DAY there. ALl paid for...gonna go lOL.

glo said...

Well good to see the chicks. All 3 looking Good. haven't seen freida at al tonight htough. These littl eones have kin dof big feet too If you catch them just right lOL. Gonna call it a day...Enough on the eyes for tonight.

Just Vicky said...

Wow, what an empty house this is tonight! Ordered my sweatshirt and mousepad

glo said...

Hi Thanks for the order, haven't seen which one you chose yet, but I wanted to say thanks for the coupon too. Yes very quiet.

glo said...

Time to say Good Night, and Good Morning Suzanne

Just Vicky said...

Guess that means no race for wax tonight!

Just Vicky said...

Well I'm afraid of the blogger cop, so I won't push my luck tonight running a race by myself!

With that, I say goodnight!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning Suzanne. I see the eagle at BW, thank you very much.

We were hoping you would surprise us and get on this weekend but I know it is hard to get everything done when you only have 2 days off. Anyway, glad to see you here this morning. Starting to work now.

MITS said...

Yes, Suz, he is a beautiful eagle. GLO, ARE YOU SURE IT MIGHT NOT BE POISION IVY? Either pink-eye or poision ivy, you need medical attention NOW.JMHO!

MITS said...

Congrats on # 200, SUZANNE

MITS said...

Sound like they are trying to either weigh Tai or do a procedure and he is not happy.

MITS said...

That's ok, SUZANNE fire away with the questions. I'm going back to OC today. My daughter-in-law, her Mom, my 2 sisters and MAGGIE are coming down. Won't have time to stop at BW, but maybe on the return trip later in the week.

MITS said...

I'm thinking it will stay lighter longer in Brisbane because they are going into their spring and summer months, which we be good for us to watch. Thank SHARON for the cam-view change, she sent them an e-mail and within minutes the cam was changed to view the eyasses.

MITS said...

Ahhhh! the mighty eagle at BW!

MITS said...

SUZANNE, Don't know if the dolphins are still there, sometimes I see them well into October, but you never know, I hope so.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Congrats Suzanne on the #200!! WTG!

wvgal_dana said...

Good Monday Morning to All

Seen eagle in BW

Nothing yet at NU or CT

Suzanne you'll get that computer going before the parents get the nest fixed I'm sure.

wvgal_dana said...

I see they finally after lots of emailing got the chicks cam straightened out....

Glo maybe you need to check with dr about that eye.

wvgal_dana said...

I think it was Mei at the fenced area inside looking to outside and a person walking by stuck a stick of bamboo into her. She started eating it right away. Don't know where Tai is if that was Mei.

glo said...

Good morning everyone. Chilly 45 this morning. Ocean Citty sounds nice What time do we arrive?

No time to open the other camera right now, little bit of a late start here...my dogs must be tired LOL. Anyway got to get dressed and ready for coffee and dog treats.

Tomorrow whole new challenge, do not think I will get in here before I leave though, so this Good Mornings IS for Monday and Tuesday LLL PLease be sure to remember this tomorrow ...

OK Check in later. Eye is about the same. Its NOT getting any worse. Not sure if I do go see somene whether to go to an eye doctor or just the reg. Dr. AND well...

Later...

MITS said...

Eaglet at NU and eagle at BW.

MITS said...

GLO start with the eye doc, even if it something like poison ivy, he can give you antibiotics.
