You're not gonna get very good gas mileage on your trip here, that wax is gonna weigh your vehicle down!

It has come to our attention that many of our famous wax figures have disapeared from our museum. Drips of wax leading away from the statues locations seem to indicate they were melted down, back into liquid wax. We will be on the lookout for individuals possessing large quantities of wax with no receipts for such quantities.

floralgirl said...

Well, I am out of here as everyone seems to have disapeared. No offense madame. BirdGirl hope you had a great birthday. Loved your latest bird pics. Good nite all.

I am figuring everybody has gone to bed now. Been back home for a little while but had to cut Mopsy's hair! What a job!

Pedro got to go live outside tonight! Yeah!! Andrew said he didn't want to keep it and let it just die so he let him loose! I figure he just couldn't stand another night with a spider in his room! :)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Going to bed now.

Good night and sweet eagle dreams, my friends of fine feathers and furs!

Hello, Jim and BirdGirl!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I just realized that it is well past 10:00 and Lun Lun is still in color!

MITS said...

Hello and Good Night! Had a wonderful visit with Maggie. Got home and saw last 5 mins of Grey's Anatomy, watched ER and just got finished reading blogs and doing e-mails. DANA Mei seemed to be alot more aware of where Tai was at all times, she didn't take food are water breaks for along time. I thought she would starve herslef to death. Lun is fine, that baby lets her know when it is not comfortable. Every panda Mom is different.

MITS said...

Yep, light is still on. You all must have shook them up with your e-mails.

MITS said...

Don't forget to read the new Sept. 21st update on Tai and why he was up that tree soo long on Tuesday night.

Mema Jo said...

Around 7pm something wierd happen in LunLun's area. The lights actually dimmed and the stupid flashlights started... They kept spoting ButaButa.LunLun even went to the other side of the nest bed as though to get the lights off of her.
Later something disturbed her outside those windows on the left of her nest bed. That's when she almost tramped on ButaButa - but picked her up quickly. I had been checking the lights and like you say - there still on....... Maybe our emails did shake someone up..I doubt it.

Mema Jo said...

The pic Glo sent of ButaButa resting on LunLun's arm... that lasted for a very long time..LunLun napped & ButaButa squirmed.........

MITS said...

Lun is sitting up with the baby.

Just Vicky said...

Oh, so now you're going to try and pin a rap on the WAX toters from Illinois??

MITS said...

I'm surprised they still have the lights on, unless, they are concerned about something.

MITS said...

LUN is lying down again, wish I could see Buta move.

Just Vicky said...

So what you all thinking bout LunLun tonight?? I've missed seeing her sitting up.

Mema Jo said...

I really think ButaButa is ok. LunLun would hopefully have maternal instincts if something were wrong. The lights?? Don't know..

Goodnight Mits, Sharon, Vicky
See you in the late am



Good Morning Suzanne

MITS said...

I think Buta is ok too. Good night JO AND VICKY

Bird Girl said...

Sorry you guys have to deal with the cold weather... last night's low was 70 degrees here... if there weren't so much concrete and asphalt here, it would be cooler at night, even in the hottest part of the year... on average, we don't get much below 40 at night in the dead of winter, but that doesn't mean we NEVER do. of course, you guys don't have to deal with 125 degrees, either!

Jody & Dave both liked the presentation, I still have to do some animations and little "polishing" things (making sure the photos all have the same borders, for example) but other than that, it's a done deal. i just hope it makes a good impression on the AAZK, who are giving away the money!!

I got to release a mockingbird this morning, I always enjoy letting them go back where they belong. He didn't go far, but they usually don't at first -- except for raptors and waterfowl, we do "soft releases", which basically means that we leave the door to the cage/aviary open and wean them off "free meals". Except for doves/pigeons, grackles and quail, they all leave the area to find their own "place in the world"...

Today, we got in a Canada goose, an old female, who apparently had broken her left leg some time ago. The break had healed, although with a large calcification, and she has a serious limp. Dave took her home with him, where she will have grass, shade, a wading pool and food while she rebuilds the strength in her injured leg. She started to settle in quickly, actually, which was nice to see. I hope she gets to go back to the wild. If not, we may try to train her as an education bird...

Well, I'm absolutely wiped out. Ended up getting about 2 hours' sleep last night. More work to do tomorrow, then Saturday all day at the zoo fundraiser, and then Sunday a bird breeder's expo with Dave. Ugh.

Next week, I ain't doin' nuthin'!!!!!!!

Thanks to all of you for your kind and heartfelt birthday wishes! I had a great birthday this year, that's for sure! :-)

Hubby got me the new aviary, and a few books that look really interesting! He's very thoughtful, pays attention to my likes/dislikes, and is very clever. I'm the luckiest girl in the world, I tell ya!

Take care all, I'll check in as soon as I can...

Hey There Hi There
Suzanne!


Saw eagle at BW
Just had to check on LunLun & Buta Buta is now in her arms.
Tai off to exploring.

Hope you had a cool ride into work today - haven't read all your comments yet - just had to welcome you to the TGIF get your computer hooked up this weekend greeting this am.

Mema Jo said...

How to catch a parakeet?? Call the pet store for advice - like Rick's or stop by the zoo. He seems to have adjusted to the wild pretty darn good but I don't think he has any idea what it means to migrate to warmer weather!

2 eagles at BWDon't know if they know each other or not.

I went into Photobucket and created an album yesterday - need to read more - but will get any info to you.

Mema Jo said...

Was wondering when you would spot me being here. I dislike 'refresing' each time before comment just to see what someone said or who is there. Takes so much time.
Tai & Mei ready to get out-of-doors. Ray Charles dancing at the window...

Mema Jo said...

Photobucket is a free service where you can set up albums (I think it is free-that's what I need to read before promoting our using it for personal albums- Space saver on Momsters)
Just another link to get to it - wouldn't limit what we can put in.
And everyone could create a sub album of their very own.

Mema Jo said...

Need to fill up my coffee mug BRB

Mema Jo said...

Door has opened for Tai & Mei to venture outside........
LunLun sitting up nursing but can't see Buta Buta...........
