I've read the comments from earlier this morning. Suzanne those eagles just won't let you drive without following you! Good information from Delphia (Birdgirl) on hatching eggs. Good morning turnout on the blog - everyone checking for new info on LunLun & Frieda. There is a steady light rain that just started here in the valley.
I haven't had time to check emails - getting myself ready to go out of here for an appointment. BBL
I am having a difficult time publishing this- it just may stutter! Just like Paula did! LOL Do have the ERROR comment.....& the TRY AGAIN comment!
I Say UNCLE !

MITS said...

Been trying to get back in for almost and hour now. This may post, or, this may not post????? Who knows!

paula eagleholic said...

%@()^*$#(@ BLOG

I think I like the blogs w/ 500+ comments better, tried to delete the repeats, got kicked out.

Osprey in CT nest, will try this later!

Just Vicky said...

Finally got on to the website and the blog! Miracle!

paula eagleholic said...

Yup, Suz, you are next on the Get a picture list

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

^$@^ blogger. Been lovely trying to get in this morning. I sure will be glad when it is 4 p.m. eagle time so we can see Frieda again. Lun Lun is in the middle of some R&R.

MITS said...

Yes. SHARON and don't forget 4:00p.m. is badger and fox feeding time at the DENBURY FARM SITE, for those of you interested in badgers and foxes...

paula eagleholic said...

Ugh! Ugly rain here too. Need some sunshine!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mits, we have dachshunds that are interested in badgers! :)

MITS said...

Those badgers really give me the creeps, but they are really funny to watch. I always miss the man that throws out the food.

paula eagleholic said...

If I was retired, today I would be under the covers with a good book!

Glo, did you buy Marley and Me for you or your son, yet?

I did get a book recommeded by Norma , I think, the James Herroit (sp) stories.

paula eagleholic said...

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Paula, which James Herriott book did you get? (That was me by the way!) :):)

paula eagleholic said...

Sharon,
Someone loaned me a book of his best stories, but I haven't had a chance to start it yet.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

It looks like Tai is trying to go back where he came from!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Who knows, Dana! It is dark there now!

MITS said...

SHARON I just noticed the pic on Tai's page of one of the keepers training him. He is just too damn cute...sorry for %$$^&*^!!

paula eagleholic said...

Jo,
If you're out there, you have mail!

MITS said...

Tai is laying on his back, biting his feet like a little baby.

movin said...

Good morning, Eagle buddies,
Thanks, Bird Girl...


I knew from TV documentaries that vocal sounds can be exchanged by chicks and mother birds before hatching, but I am always amazed at how long before they can do it.

Yes, it could be Verbana, which is considered a noxious weed in Australia, and they have extermination squads trying to eliminate it.

I looked it up in Wikipedia, and I immediately recognized the flower and berry from ground cover we have at work. I had noted the berry looks like any segmented berry ... raspberry, blackberry ... with only a few segments. I thought the berries, which only grow here and there in our groundcover, were probably strays dropped by birds, but they belonged to the area after all.

The berries are poisonous by the way ... at least to humans.

Jim

movin said...

Lantana, Lantana! ... not Verbana.
That's why I'm no good at remembering plant names.

Sorry,
Jim

Just Vicky said...

Is there life here today???

wvgal_dana said...

Somebody is sacked out over the rocks....I think Mei or maybe it is me lol

wvgal_dana said...

Hi vicky Frieda is asleep too tired trying to figure what time it will be daylight there. Do you know?
That chick got me lol

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Daylight in Brisbane is 4 p.m. eagle time.

Just Vicky said...

Yes Dana I read about you're escapade doing night duty!

paula eagleholic said...

Sun has finally managed to come out here...now it is getting steamy as well, but the sun is definitely welcome!

BTW, saw the ugly vultures when I was out at lunchtime...they were picnicking in the median strip...

MITS said...

MITS said...

BEAUTIFUL ADULT EAGLE ATNU.

MITS said...

DANA, looks like a notch to me!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle waiting patiently w/ fish in NU nest for his lunch date to arrive....

paula eagleholic said...

Not going to wait any longer...enjoyin the fish now...

paula eagleholic said...

Osprey still at BW, CT nest Osprey on top of cam

paula eagleholic said...

Wow, check out that steal and mantle by the eaglet...Awesome!

paula eagleholic said...

Ok, time for the crow to show up and pester the eaglet!

Bird Girl said...

I tried to get a better look at the egg using Photoshop, but the resolution of the cam image is not high enough for me to get a good zoom in... it does seem like there is some kind of notch, but maybe it's just a leaf stuck to the egg, who knows?

jim Lantanas do have berries, little black ones, and the birds LOOOOOVE them. Makes their poop purple! HAHAHA!!!

BG

paula eagleholic said...

I'll take that 1/2 can of wax, thank you, thank you very much!

paula eagleholic said...

Aha, now we know the rest of the story.....

Thanks, Birdgirl!

MITS said...

eaglet still mantling at nu.

paula eagleholic said...

Eaglet still mantling....

paula eagleholic said...

Looks like you and me Mits, guess everyone is still having problems getting in....

paula eagleholic said...

The osprey is still at BW.

Are you stopping there on the way to the beach?

MITS said...

I DOUBT IT ,PAULA, I'M STILL WAITING FOR CLOTHES TO DRY, AND BY THE TIME I GET OUT OF HERE, I WILL BE RUNNING INTO TRAFFIC ON BELTWAY AND THRU ANNAPOLIS.

MITS said...

It is sooo nice to see an eagle again, and the osprey.

paula eagleholic said...

He is eating now....

MITS said...

He reminds me of "SPUNKY", just taking his time savoring every morsel.

paula eagleholic said...

Osprey at Blackwater is gone, NU eaglet is still eating...

paula eagleholic said...

Yes he does, Mits.

belle_wv said...

Hi all, I'm home - worn out, taking a nap. {{{{hugs to all}}}} any babies yet?

paula eagleholic said...

Nu eaglet gone...

Mema Jo said...

Just saw about 4 observers looking in through the glass door at LunLun. Her den looks dimmly lit. Maybe trying to set the mood for a cub.

Light enough in Brisbane to see Frieda but you can't make out much more.

MITS said...

No Belle, none that we know of...Yeah eagle gone at NU.

Mema Jo said...

Sharon how do you delete the deleted comment message. I remember you once did that?

Mema Jo said...

Belle Take a nice nap - after all it is Hump Day!

Mema Jo said...

I still have upteen email messages to get though - I am going to be in mail jail pretty soon..........

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Frieda is now in color!

glo said...

Good morning Freida. Hi Bloggers i am back from my travels. Have had a pretty busy day. Got a pretty good headache this afternoon, so will probably lie down for a bit, and just kind of glance at Freida. it will take her and chickadees (ooops thats not right) well baby whatever they are called to wake yo anyway) will BLOG some more in a little while. Hoping this will publish now LOL.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mema Jo, sometimes it takes me to the permanently delete page and sometimes not.

paula eagleholic said...

Osprey at CT

Mema Jo said...

Looks like LunLun is coming back out into the open area.

paula eagleholic said...

Howdy, Jo, Sharon and Glo,,,,and Belle (takin a nap)

wvgal_dana said...

Ok can't remember pleae someone tell me where is the place to click to
KEEP CAM ON TOP?????????

Mema Jo said...

Well, that was quick. LunLun just took a stoll around her den & went right back into where her Nesting Box is????
Maybe she is chewing on it again.
I just hope that cub isn't born inside that large black tube toy where no one could see her.

Mema Jo said...

Mema Jo said...

Which cam, Dana? Some of them are not on real player or don't have any controls like our live feed cam did.


Dana, I think you jinxed the blog. I can't post again to answer your question LOL

Mema Jo said...

Frieda has her eyes to the skies!

Bird Girl said...

you can't keep the Freida picture on top, but you can resize your windows so they fit side by side instead... waiting for her to get off the eggs to see what's what... if i see anything, i'll be sure to post!

bird girl

MITS said...

HEADING DOWN TO THE OCEAN, CATCH YOU ALL LATER, IF I STILL HAVE A PLACE!!!

Bird Girl said...

mema jo thanks! i didn't see your comment before :-) actually, it's an eagle owl -- they have bright orange eyes. i have a friend who is a falconer, and he has an eagle owl named Amy. he's from England originally, and brought her from there -- going through all the paperwork and government hoops and quarantine. she's a gorgeous owl, and larger than our GHOs.

Mema Jo said...

Delphia When you first changed your pic late one evening - I complimented you & if just in case you didn't see my comment:

Delphia -I love your great horned owl

MITS Safe journey!!! Blog with you this evening!

Mema Jo said...

Eagle Owl How very appropriate for this site! You have been able to introduce us to some interesting birds by changing your pics. Thanks.
No wonder you go by BirdGirl !!

paula eagleholic said...

Dana,
You can't keep the Freida cam on top, even tho that button says so.
As for real player, it is under view, then check keep on top while playing.

Bird Girl said...

HAHA! Yeah, bird girl just seemed to fit... I've always loved animals, all animals, but never had much experience with birds until about 8 years ago, when I started volunteering at a now-defunct songbird rescue & rehab center. that's where I met Jody, and when that place folded, Jody & I created Fallen Feathers ;-)

I'm hoping to get a new license plate this year, BIRDGRL -- one of our volunteers just changed hers to AVNRESQ !

wvgal_dana said...

Mits God Speed to your ride to Ocean City..

Delphia I love your owl too; I did also say that in another blog.

Thank you Paula.

Ok I am like Nilla was the other day in the blog. She ask how many think Lun Lun is pregrant?? No one answered so asking again.

I don't .... take a out there .... it's only a guess lol

Mema Jo said...

I hope they don't report that LunLun didn't eat today because she is really chowing down the bamboo!

Mema Jo said...

Dana - going to be very sad for us if she isn't. I guess we'll know something more on Friday when they get her count....

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

A watched pot never boils!

wvgal_dana said...

I know she is really eating isn't she...don't care if she isn't pregrant I still love watching her.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

They also keep reporting she is spending her days in her nesting box. Must be the hammock cause that is where I see her most of the time!

Mema Jo said...

Sharon Don't talk to Dana about Pots! (you know-crock pots)

LOL

Bird Girl said...

I almost forgot -- I added a photo album on the group site, Rehab & Education Birds...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

It said yesterday that the new hormone results would be available today!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I got 100 without even knowing it!!

Sorry for mentioning pots to ya Dana!

Mema Jo said...

I have just been peeking at Frieda.
I really don't want her to see me &
give me that look again.

Mema Jo said...

Don't worry Sharon
I was gong to say


CONGRATS SHARON YOU ARE #100

wvgal_dana said...

LOL Sharon pots hee hee its all ok

Contrgs you must like wax whether you are trying or not lol

Mema Jo said...

Delphia - The new pics are great.
I also said on the blog & on the Momsters' email that I am expecting some shots of all the items you were preparing for the Art Show. ok?

It is so nice chatting with you during the day--you usually are only on after I sign off.
SOoooooooooo Why aren't you out with the birds now? You're feeling ok, aren't you?

wvgal_dana said...

If Nilla opened the store today; maybe she will get off around 5 or so....
Do you know Jo?

paula eagleholic said...

Osprey still in CT

Sharon, congrats on the full can. How many is that now?

Mema Jo said...

I can see Mia outside on the walkway but I can't find Tai. Maybe he is up a tree..

Anyone know if he is due for an exam?
Mia keeps looking in as though she is checking on something. Maybe she just wants inside.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Something has gotten Frieda's feathers ruffled!

Mema Jo said...

Dana I was going to ask you if you knew whether or not Nilla worked today. However, when she is at the store (Unless the UPS man came in) she is usually signed in on the blog...

Mema Jo said...

Paula - Is it Frieda or is the camera? She has had her head tucked under her chest quite alot today.
They had projected the 6th for hatching - Well Down Under it is the 7th but UpHere it is the 6th...
Maybe Frieda likes our time best ???

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

She emailed me this morning and was at work.

paula eagleholic said...

Is she turning the eggs?

Mema Jo said...

BBL Going to the store

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I think it is a windy day in Brisbane as the leaves keep looking blurry.

paula eagleholic said...

She is really checking them now...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, the wind ain't making Frieda blurry. They must be messing with the camera.

paula eagleholic said...

Yea, I think the wind is ruffling her feathers..

paula eagleholic said...

Heading home to mow the lawn, soggy or not! TTYL!

wvgal_dana said...

Just in case you want to check it out
another different osprey site

http://www.whoi.edu/science/osprey/index.html

they laid 3 eggs 2 hatched 2nd fledged I think August 3rd it tells you
called Woods Hole
no sound good pic I did do the download did not mess up my machine

wvgal_dana said...

Woods Hole is in Massechusetts

belle_wv said...

Howdy all - it is after 5 did anyone get a LunLun Update? I think Nilla said she had to work 'til 4 and was looking forward to heading home then... she maybe stopped for some dinner? I know I am hungry. Had a nap and then a few phone calls, now time to figure out what is dinner.

belle_wv said...

Our wait is over!
Lun Lun gave birth at September 6 at 4:51 P.M. Both the cub and mother seem to be doing fine. We have very little to share at this moment, but will keep posting updates daily about Lun Lun's and the cub's progress.
Dr. Rebecca Snyder


YAHHHHHOOOOOO

belle_wv said...

Oh that was so exciting to post - I am so happy for her! She gave birth just in time to make the 5pm daily post - so sweet of her! I would've cried if it had been another psuedopregnancy - 3rd was the charm for her for sure!!!

glo said...

LOL Well now is that ever cool news to get back up from a nap with. I sure hope Freida is paying attention to this information. Time to see some little fuzz balls next to her too!!

belle_wv said...

Glo - GMTA - I was just thinking the same thing - hopefully Frieda will catch the 'baby fever' but it is all up to the chicks at this point - lots of hard work for them to get out of their shells....

wvgal_dana said...

Well hee hee I said she wasn't pregrant so she had to show me didn't she lol

glo said...

Oh and reading the back bLOGs I ment to say Yes!!! I think she was pregnant" ok I'm gonna behave now LOL

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Oh My God. She was sitting with her back to one of those logs and I was thinking that looked like a birthing position. I am so excited!!!!!!!! And the camera shut down for the day. She was having that baby with her back to us. She wanted privacy!!

belle_wv said...

What happy news - I can't imagine how she'd have felt if there was no baby again... that psuedo pregnancy thing is bizarre

Mema Jo said...

WHOO HOO !!!!

I guess she was pregnant after all.
Can't wait to see that little stick of black & white butter........

Belle Good thing you looked at the site. Usually at 5 pm we all close it down & only look every once or twice to see any updates !! Well, that's one down & one to go (rather 3 to go) !

wvgal_dana said...

Wow Jo my post was at 1:45:35pm which is 3 hours behind. Jo you and me seen Lun Lun eating alot of bamboo then. Wow Lun Lun had her cub at 4:51pm WOW wee

Just glad HAPPY can't wait to see that baby panda cub hee hee.
Since she had one and we watch Tai and Mei we will have to see later if it carries on like Tai with its Mommy....lol

wvgal_dana said...

Nilla if you were here I would ask you is there a name in Chinesse for what you always said about her
"coochie or however you spelt it".lol
Maybe Chinesse for "stick of butter" lol

Well we have a Pandalet hee hee

Mema Jo said...

TAI IS ABOUT TO TAKE ANOTHER

BIG FALL!


THEY BOTH WANT THE LEDGE lol

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Is that where Tai fell from before?

Mema Jo said...

I really think it was but he wasn't sleeping at the time. He was climbing over his momma & she raised up & he toppled off & down he went.

Mei was there first tonight. Looks like she saved him enough room on that ledge.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Lun Lun's favorite scents are cinnamon and mint. Should we send her some Yankee candles as a present for giving birth?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I watched that video and just wanted to cry, just like they were doing! She is such a wonderful mother!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I wish Frieda would get the h*&^ up!

wvgal_dana said...

Isn't that just adorable Mei and Tai side by side on the ledge sleeping.

belle_wv said...

LOL Sharon - you have enough wax to make her a panda sized candle - just have to get you the scents... LOL
I sent a congratulations email to her via the newsupdate address for atlanta zoo
PressUpdates@zooatlanta.org

not sure if they want that - but there was nothing else there and I just wanted to say WAY TO GO everyone

belle_wv said...

Mei doesn't look too comfy up there

belle_wv said...

but Tai is snuggling in - think he likes having mom there to brace against - he's shoved himself into the wall and looks like he's kinda pushin on her with his legs to feel secure

glo said...

Sharon freida does get up. She usually starts a little after 9 pm my time which well you know a little after you have won the 10pm wax your time and keeps us all up as long as she can fromt hat point on. Won't be too long now.

wvgal_dana said...

Belle you have the swim tomorrow?
Where do you all go?

belle_wv said...

Something on the news about the water from the potomac river causing fish to turn from male to female - I wonder what that will do to our eagles who eat the fish - I sure hope it isn't another DDT all over!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Now, how is that possible, to turn a fish from a male into a female. Does their wacker fall off!

belle_wv said...

LOL I don't think they have that to worry about - but they do start producing eggs - very scary for our eagles who eat so many fish from the river - they've found the messed up fish from Harper's Ferry clear down to the city

Mema Jo said...

Mei just moved & so Tai got a ittle more comfortable... I like his pillow.

belle_wv said...

They are so cute together - I hope Lun Lun and her baby are lucky enough to have as great a relationship in the months ahead.

belle_wv said...

oops I got the half wax lol

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Congrats Belle on the wax!

belle_wv said...

Thanks Sharon - hopw're you feeling? Haven't mentioned how your cough is going?

wvgal_dana said...

Belle you have the swim tomorrow?
Where do you all go?



Norma some including me was beginning to wonder if Lun Lun was pregrant. They even wondered at the zoo. hee hee now we'll have another Panda Mom and Baby cub (a pandlet) to watch.. wish the cam was like DC moving around to watch them .... oh wish wish lol

Mema Jo said...

I did talk with NILLA as she was walking into the grocery store. I told her NOT to buy anymore icecream! Told her about LunLun - she said she would be on the blog later........

wvgal_dana said...

Great Jo.. Did Nilla sound excited about Lun Lun's cub?

wvgal_dana said...

Where did Belle go????

Just Vicky said...

I see Norma still has a beautiful eagle!

wvgal_dana said...

Hi Vicky I thought I was all alone.

NillaWafer said...

Okie Dokie we all are grandmaws ..lol I couldnt get on the blog today from work and i watched her most of the day sleeping in her hammock n eating bamboo by the window.. Never thinking she would have the cub less than anhour after i left work.. Well now Freida need to get off the pot and get those eggs hatched tonight as i am off work tomarrow and cam watch for awhiel tonight... Yeah Jo called me while i was getting a manicure and told me about the cub.. No Jo i didnt even buy any sweets just cat food for the hair ball and litter.. Wow this siexcitng does Thelma know???? Jo didnt you say she was on her way to OC?

wvgal_dana said...

Vicky did you read in here that Lun Lun gave birth today?

NillaWafer said...

Lord i need to use spell check and check before hitting the publish button..lol

wvgal_dana said...

Nilla I'm NOT doing falcon egg watch tonight after 11pm ... that chick got me last night but not tonight lol

NillaWafer said...

LoL Dana i watched how many nights in row til wee hours of morning..lol And i did see that bump on the top of that 1 egg yes

NillaWafer said...

I just keep going over and looking at those pictures of the new cub.. Our LIL Butter Stick

NillaWafer said...

Well Freida must be sleeping or her head is gone.. Jo man i wish i bought something sweet now like dive chocolate bar..lol

Mema Jo said...

Mits should already have arrived in OC if she really left when she said she was and the traffice didn't slow her down. You know how that is - you can always get sidetracked!

NillaWafer said...

DOVE NOT dive...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Latest from Lun Lun's page:

Images of Lun Lun and her cub will be available beginning Friday, September 8 at 10:00a.m. For now, please enjoy proud father Yang Yang exploring his habitat from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

wvgal_dana said...

Its just that bright new mancure you got, messing up the letters lol

wvgal_dana said...

Dang Friday 10 Am is just when I have an appt out of town eeeekkkk
I want to see them......grrrrr

Mema Jo said...

Went to LunLun's article under Giant Pandas. That little cub is soooooooooo little. Here is what was said about seeing the cub & what we'll be seeing on the cam:
Images of Lun Lun and her cub will be available beginning Friday, September 8 at 10:00a.m. For now, please enjoy proud father Yang Yang exploring his habitat from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
We get to see Yang Yang...
Wonder what the cub's name will be?

NillaWafer said...

Animal management staff continues to closely watch Lun Lun for a potential second birth. Twin births occur nearly 50% of the time in the species. The second birth could occur up to 12 to 24 hours after the first.... She could have another!!!!!!!!!!

wvgal_dana said...

I hope they put them on the site then when I get back I can go in and look at them.

Mema Jo said...

Hey Sharon Do you hear an echo in this blog LOL...........

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

OMG. I didn't know there were pictures. It looks like a little rat! How cool and then they turn out to look like Tai! I had to laugh when I saw it. I bet she didn't much trouble giving birth to that little thing. Now I am wondering -- was that her we have been watching? Cause I was watching up until they turned the camera off at 5 p.m. and she was sitting leaned up against that log looking structure with her back to the camera. Does anybody know?

paula eagleholic said...

Wow, Lun Lun had a cub...how cool is that, when was it born? (I Haven't read back too far yet)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I am wondering where Mits is too. She should have been there by now. Hope all is well in OC!

NillaWafer said...

Dana went to El Ranchro for Mexican food and saw the nail place close by so i went in i swear they neevr spoke aword of english and also she didnt evenhave the nail polish on my nails ( which was mine i had in pocket book) she is saying you want to pay now before paint nails?? Grrrr yeah i payed and she painted and they look terrible she painted over wet nail polish quik quik quik Grrrrr did i tip her hell No..

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

4:51 p.m. is when the little baby was born!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

They want you to pay for your nails first before they do them so you won't mess them up digging the money out and then they have to redo them!

paula eagleholic said...

They got pics on the Atlanta site already of the cub?

Mema Jo said...

I don't think it was Yang Yang we were seeing today. I think he will be in a different setting.
How about them watching to be sure there isn't another one - twins!
They are quite common over in China - remember that pic & article.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Name for the panda cub: Buta Buta!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

They do Paula. Go check them out!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Or another name Ben Ben! (you know, in honor of the rat). Okay, I am going to stop now before you all kill me. I just was not expecting a panda cub to look like that, not after watching Tai.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Has anybody seen the bird get off those daggone eggs yet?

Mema Jo said...

I had never watched Mei after giving birth to Tai to see how the staff got him away from her for an initial exam. I'm not even sure after his birth if she was on the cam. I guess Mits would know.

NillaWafer said...

OMG I JUST READ SHE HAD ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION FROM HIS SPERM THEY COLLECTED... Now my mind is racing and vivid pictures arising..lol I know how they collect horses sperm bet its a similar situtation.. I know TMI...lol

paula eagleholic said...

LOL at the Buta Buta. How about Land O' Lakes?

Mema Jo said...

I just hope LunLun doesn't drop the cub in the bamboo - cause no one would be able to find him/her. I wonder if they make sounds? I guess I could google for some info - just don't feel like doing it right now.........

Mema Jo said...

NILLA - that's how they got all those sets of twins in China, I bet........

paula eagleholic said...

Got the first phone call from The College Kid tonight.

And No, he wasn't calling for money. Yet.

Mema Jo said...

No Sharon - I have not see Frieda get up off the eggs yet. Give her another 15 minutes or so & I bet she hops up. I just know I am not staying up late just to find out. BirdGirl said she would be watching. If anyone takes pics - send them to Delphia (BirdGirl).

paula eagleholic said...

Looks more like a gerbil to me.

Mema Jo said...

Paula, I think that is very considerate and loving of your son to give you a call! I'm sure it made you feel good.

NillaWafer said...

Look at this site http://www.liu.edu/cwis/cwp/library/exhibits/panda/panda.htm

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

who is going

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

wax

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

me!!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...
