«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 363 of 363Amazin, isn't it Jo! What they grow up to be.
I hope everything goes well in Atlanta!
Actually looks like 1 of those nekkid mole rats running thru the tubes over at Zoo..lol
Oh I went over to see the picture of Lun Lun with her little cub. I absolutely love that picture it is Priceless.
Oh my the mexican food is coming back to haunt me..lol Rolaids please!!!
AT least something produced today! Congratulations Panda moms! I have been watching that crazy falcon most of the day and she ain't left that nest once! Much less stand up!
Glo, you've got mail!
Nilla what is that website I can't get into it????????
I did see the little "hairless pandalet".
And you all thought my hairless kitten looked funny lol
Can anyone view the video on Freida's site? It says High Drama, Egg rescue in high winds. When you click on it, it say Freida had to rescue an egg today, did anyone see that or watch it yet?
Heck Dana i ddint save it .. just google ask (use to be ask jeeves) then put in what sounds do newborn panda cubs make?
Nilla they tried to mate them. He was really willing but she just wouldn't let him. So that's how they had to get her pregrant.
I guess this answers my question about the check up: The cub, which is about the size of a human hand, is being cared for by mother, Lun Lun, and will have its first veterinary check-up when Zoo Atlanta officials determine it is possible to do so without disrupting maternal care.
Ain't no d^^n wonder she ain't been off those eggs today. Look where it got her! Told ya'll the wind was blowing hard.
Yes Paula i watched it WOW she was knocked completely off the eggs in high winds and then 1 of the eggs rolled i would say 5 inches away from nest .. she took her foot n beak and rolled it back in the nest...
I just watched it Paula I say let that bird lie there and relax as long as she wants too. she is probably holding on to those weeds and crouching on those eggs to save them all. We could tell it was really windy there form the earlier blog comments. Poor bird. That is an amzing but crummy OK drmatic piece of work after sitting on them all this time to habve that happen. Although had the chick been hatched she probably couldn't have succesfully rescued.
It is very windy there today, probably why Freida hasn't gotten up.
Wow, I'll have to check it out tomorrow at work.
Ok SharonI will watch for it.
Dana, they also show a shift change from yesterday where Frodo laid on the eggs. So that was probably when you asked if that was Frodo!
Well now I feel sad for Freida. i want to go help her out...Guess my showing up wouldn't be that much help. darn... I hope the wind has died down now geeesh. I think I'll go back and look at that cute little panda again. Don't have to go too far I have saved Mom and cub onto my desktop
For those of you that might not have gotten into that link Nilla put up. Check your emails .. I emailed it to you...
It is awesome!!
Yes i rememebr when he took the nest and Dana ASKED ABOUT IT .. hE SEEMS TO BE MORE SLEEK AND DAPPER..LOL Lately she has her feathers ruffled alot..
If I am reading it right, when you click on the Brisbane current temp, etc, link on the Freida page, the wind speed was 65mph gusts today.
Dana what no phone call tonight? lol i am in tears...lol
Well we certainly had alot of rain thsi morning some hard rain to.. Must say the grass is greener and not dry n ugly any more...
Wind has died down to 22mph gusts, but I can't blame her for not getting up!
The Frieda clip for SEPT 5: Look at those lazer lights!
Ok Well glad to know Frodo takes a turn now and then. probably answers my question yesterday about her source of food over this time period too!!! LOL
Don't cry Nilla I'm just too tired to dial. YOu know you need a break from me. lol
Well, the master of my life is wanting the computer for a little while. I might be back on later but don't know. I hope Mits shows up soon!
Andrew just saw Lun Lun's baby and he said it looks like a naked mole rat too and he hadn't even read the blogs or watched the cam at the zoo. Love his thinking!
BBL!
All of those clips are great on the Frieda/Frodo site. It sure gives you a good view of the ledge!! It really isn't hard to tell Frodo's feathers from Frieda's now that we've seen the switch.
I am assuming that all when you all went to the panda site & saw the pic of LunLun holding the little one - that you also went into the site where you can see LunLun sleeping on her side and the cub is lying flat out on the floor a few feet from her. LOL It will only take a month for all that furry hair to come out!
Isn't it something that 4 days fuzzy then at that time not even black and white coloring.
So tiny
<~~ CRAVING SOMETHING SWEET... This is 22 days without smoking!!!!!!
OK, I'm trying to find this picture of Lun Lun and baby, I can't find it! help! I've gone to the website that Dana sent in the email, where do I go after I bring that up??
One hiccup & the Little Ledge Lodger
is going DOWN !
Wow not sure Mit should have gone to Ocean City. Tropical Storm which they believe will change to Hurricane called Florence. Is working itself up......a bad one.
wvgal_dana: you have a hairless cat??? i have a sphynx!!!!
Delphia (birdgirl) not I don't have one. Remember the pink kitten pic I had up in here. Well remember I put up a pic in here of a hairless kitten.
Vicky: It's the regular site for LunLun: click above the cam pic on Giant Pandas - Panda Breeding Season updates -(1 pic is there )-
Zoo Atlanta Panda Gives Birth (another pic)
http://www.zooatlanta.org/
animals_panda_cam.htm
No Vicky go here
http://www.zooatlanta.org/home.htm
then click on Oanda cam menu that runs on the top NOT THE BOTTOM THEN glick on Giant Panda, Panda breeding update
I truly LOVED your album. I had a grey baby fox I saved and returned when she was almost a yr old to the wild. I kept her wild, teaching her to catch her food. I loved working and helping her grow. Her name was "Summer" cause that is when I found her. On Interstate 81 thought it was a baby kitten and the trucks were swzzing by her and the wind from the truck put her in the fast lane.
I knew from the start I would keep her wild that is where she belonged.
Delphia Did you have time to check out the video clips of the past week on the F&F site. One shows Frodo nesting & there are a few more that are really good.
NO NO NO VICKY THAT IS NOT THE ATLANTA ZOO LINK WHERE LUN LUN AND BABY IS.......
THANKS GLO! I found them! Isn't that just adorable!
Glo Did you keep going & open the red lettered title of:Zoo Atlanta Panda Gives Birth (there's another pic)
http://www.zooatlanta.org/animals_giant_panda_breedingseason.htm
vICKY GO HERE IT SHOWS PIC OF LUN LUN AND BABY ON LEFT SIDE THEN ON RIGHT IN RED CLICK ON ATLANTA ZOO PANDA BIRTH
The link I sent around is what Nilla gave us in here to see the growth of a panda ok look at it and click on the pics in there
Wow ladies, so many of you "Telling me Where to GO!"
Norma you will have mail with 2 links to click on for Panda Cub Pics....
Oh poor Norma, hope she doesn't get AS confused as I did!!!
SMOKING HABIT: Lick a little salt with the tip of your tongue whenever you feel the urge to smoke. This is said to break the habit within 1 month.
Found this while surfin around looking at old time remedies..
Mema Jo yes after you told us it was there back a few posts, I did go back to see the other one too. So cute.
.Norma Yo've got mail
Did someone say they lost their PUPPY?
LOL, Obviously there are a few who quickly seize the opportunity to tell people where to go .
Oooh, they pulled camera back on Frieda
Info for those who have a small child who might do this.. I remember when my childern did................................GUM IN HAIR: Soak the gum-coated hair in Coke® and it should wipe out easily.
Nilla, glad you found something to keep helping you lick this habit! Is the salt helping?
OK Mits this si for you just incase our Maggie gets crankey and this is the reason.......CONSTIPATION (IN SMALL CHILDREN): Soak 6-8 raisins in hot water. When cool, crush well and strain. When given routinely even to little infants, it helps to regulate bowel movement... Thats All Folksss
Nilla want me to get you a salt lick.....put in on the counter at work and it will surely start some people wondering and commenting.
lol all the questions "why is there a salt lick on the counter"?
A baby falcon would be a nice touch for this evening. I like the view on her now!
Vicky i cant do that with high blood pressure and i have been doing very well just sucking on peppermints n driving everyone here nuts...lol
What is causing the fish in the Potomac to be doing this odd change???
Well, Master Crisco has gone to bed and I am not far behind him.
Mits made it to OC about 7:30. A little damage there but nothing too serious. Said to tell everybody Hi!
Nilla, you ARE NOT DRIVING US NUTS! We're in this with you all the way!
Panda cam says...Images of Lun Lun and her cub will be available on the Panda cam Fri Sept 8 beginning at 10 am. Until then they will show Proud Dad during the normal camera time
Just in case you haven't read your eaglet_momster email
Mema Jo has agreed to help me out with the momsters group
Barbara in Maine is no longer with the group, and Jo has graciously agreed to give me a hand.
Thank you, Mema Jo
Nilla, are you starting to feel better breathing wise at least? I would like to think by now you would notice some differences in something!
Has Frieda been off the nest at all???
They are having adopations in DC on animals collected from Katraia (ok didn't spell it right)
Remember that bottle of dark yucky stuff for consipation grandmaw gave you as akid>> Caster something NOT OIL neither was nasty tasting...Stank to high heavens.. How in the world did i get on thsi subject?? I better go watch Freida,,,lol
Looks like the wind is still blowing in Brisbane. Too bad they couldn't have put up a little shield like they did at Harrisburg!
Mema Jo is a wonderful choice. Good job Paula and Thanks to Mema Jo for her willingness to come alongside and help. I am sure it will go wonderfully well.
Vicky in some ways i feel better yes but still cant walk alot without becoming alittle breathless.. I go back to heart doctors monday
Yes, Mema Jo, a round of applause to you!! Wise choice Paula!
I think I get to do Jury duty on Monday LOL. Will know for sure when i call the court house on Fri LOL.
Nilla, hang in there, perhaps they need to change some of your meds too!
Cute Vicky. I like that!
I don't remember anything castor but castor oil but I do remember Paregoric. Did much more than help a belly ache! WWHHHEEEEE!
Peanut butter on the gum in hair works very well....... Need to shampoo afterwards thought.
Paula, thanks for announcing that I will be helping you out: I describe it as a 'tech' responsibility. Most of the Momsters/Bloggers have responded to the email with their best wishes.
No emails yet from anyone on your invitation to express their ideas! But I'm awaiting for everyone's input.

Frieda seems to be laying really low right now. You know that got her heart a-pumping today.
WELL now I want Freida to see this pic and take a hint!
Do they make cookie cutters in the shape of bones or cats or anything?
Vicky, you are just too cute!
I really hope Lun Lun's baby stays healthy. I would love to watch it like we watch Tai.
Yes in deedy Sharon loved that paregoric ... use to rub on those gums and the kid went to la la land quik..lol Grandmaw use to get cokes at local drug store with Ammonia in them for headaches .. they still sell them here at alocal drug store
Don't feel like trashing the last comment due to a typo.. Did you catch it?
Need to shampoo afterwards thought.
THOUGH not THOUGHT
Sometimes I wish I weren't a LIBRA..
Little miss perfection........
Who was it?
I still can't get over what that little pandalet looks like. ROFLMAO!!!
MEMA JO IS THE WINNER OF THE WAX

http://recipes.robbiehaf.com/pets/9.htm

Tonight you best dream about
PINK CRACKED EGGS
and not a Naked pandalet
WHAT in the world are cokes with ammonia???
It just showed that the DC Vet. has worked at the DC Zoo for 5 years and there has been alot of problems at the zoo.
He isn't doing his job.
Ok bedtime for me night all AOYP and Sweet Eagle/Eaglet/Panda & Cub/falcon & eggs or maybe fuzzy baby.........niters
And all my wax, Glo!
There you go again Glo! Trying to see how much you can bring on our trip in the spring! Are we going to hold a "roadside sale?"
Going to bed now.
If anybody stays up and watches Frieda, send me pictures!
Good night and sweet eagle dreams, my friends of fine feathers!
Vicky, you on another roll of pics!
Love the little hatching chick !
Ok But I think I only have 1 1/2 cam so far...but Vicky has quite alot too.
Early good night, all. Tired from mowing and restling w/ the mower.
See you all in the a.m.
Got a pantalet, hope to see a falconette soon!
Sweet dreams, eagle friends.
No, not on a roll, just using some old ones again!
NORMA Did you get to see the Panda pics from the 2 links I sent you in an email?
Goodnight Sharon!
Camera angle change on Frieda.
Yes Vicky grandmaw use to walk down to drug store and buy a regular fountain coke and say with Ammonia.. Foe headaches.. They still sell them here at a store called Crowell's on main street here.. Actually they dont taste bad at all.. (Spirits of Ammonia) Hey is Belle here ? Belle did ya see where they got that Ghost woman Crites for practicin medicine without alicense..lol Grandmaw always bought coke syrup also for upset stomaches..
Well next time I get over that way, I want to try one of those cokes!
Good thing we got so many close ups of the eggs the last 3 night or so. Not that we saw much but we sure could try. LOL
Castoria thats the name of it... Sooo nasty
NOW THIS IS REALLY STUPID REMEDY FOR A MIGRAIN HEADACHE AND DROWNED..LOL........................ Fill a bath with hot water,kneel down in the bath and place your head in the water and start to blow out of your nose. lift your head,take a deep breath and repeat for at least another six times.Then lie back and relax for 10 minutes.your headache should start to ease now and should be gone completely in the next half an hour.
Do like my new kitty???
OK THIS IS THE LAST ONE BUT MAYBE THIS OR ANY OF WHAT I POSTED WILL HELP 1 OF YOU IN SOME SMALL WAY IF YOU SUFFER FROM MIGRAINS LIKE I USE TO FOR OVER 30 YEARS......Another effective means is to use natural apple cider vinegar . Equal parts of natural apple cider vinegar and water should be placed in a small pan on the stove, allowing it to boil slowly. When the fumes begin to rise from the pan, lean your head over it until the fumes are comfortably strong. Inhale for approximately 50 to 80 breaths. This generally alleviates the headache considerably, if not entirely.
Where are you getting those things Nilla??
http://www.ask.com/web?o=0&qsrc=6&l=dir&q=Home+Remedies+for+Headache i just googled home remedies and there is a whole bunch of interesting stuff to read
Spmeday i am going to be a contestant on a game show and it will come in handy..lol i love triva
Well just about time to call it a day for me. I have been headachy all day and am very tired. Not wanting to drown myself int he tub just yet, and don't have any applecider vinegar int he house, so its off to bed for me. Maybe tonight freida's little ones will come on out of there. Although given the wind there to day i am actaully very glad that little one was stillin its egg, so mom could just roll it back in place.
Good Night all.
Nilla, remember us when you become rich and famous on the game shows!
Vicky since i guess i went thru change of life i dont get migrains any more .. I actually have been in hospitol for 10 days with them and got nerve blocks in base of brain and was on very dangerous medicines for my body.. But it helped.. LOL i was married and had insurance then too..
Niters Glo hope you feel better really should look at that site for headaches might be something there to help you..
Now gals, this is a picture or my "King Bobo", long live the King!
Now that's a subject NOT to discuss, "Change of Life!"
I guess i went thru it i dont know never became Biatchy like most .. atleast i didnt think so...
It is that time of evening --
You two enjoy each other's company - I remember Nilla you said you didn't work tomorrow & can stay up late on the bird watch. With the camera angle as it is - close ups of eggs looks to be impossible. Think we'll need to wait for some fuzzy little chicks.
Vicky, King BoBo is very pretty.
Goodnight all. Sweet eagle dreams.
GOOD MORNING, SUZANNE
May the eagles follow you always
Goodnight leader Mema JO!
Bobo is gray, and VERY OLD! That was taken a year ago. Do a close look of his pic and look at those feet!
Yeah Norma, my other kitty cat on here tonight ran away!
LOOKS like Nilla get night duty here tonight! Why haven't one of those eggs hatched anyway??
Where did Frieda GO
She's left the nest!
Where's the eggs???
Vicky i dont know???????? I took apicture and zoomed in DONT SEE ANY AT ALL!!!
UNLESS somehow they are in the weeds but wouldnt she be laying on the weeds then? Hmmmm
Took another picture and i still DONT see any eggs DO YOU??????? i zoomed in as close as i could!!! Think they took the eggs today since wind was up to maybe save them??? Na they woulnt have done that without saying so..
She is back maybe they were out of veiw of camera...
well she is back setting so they must be there...Musta been in the weeds she is setting on more of them now
Sure had me going!
How big are their eggs?
Just got finished reading all the blogs. Thanks for all the info on Lun-Lun. For those of you who have not experienced the birth of a panda, you are in for a real treat. The only thing is Atlanta is doing it differntly than the National Zoo, already. The zoo had Mei and Tai on 24/7 for about 2 months. The cub has a really loud cry and poor Mei would get very little sleep in those 1st few weeks. Panda moms don't eat or drink for the first couple of weeks either. When Mei started to venture out for a drink, thats when they snacted Tai up for his exam. The little window you see on the door, next to her birthing den was a door just like that, with the same size window and when she heard him cry, she tried very hard to climb thru that window. OOPPSS! sorry too long, but it has been an honor and a privelige to watch him grow from day "1" Talk to you tomorrow, Just a few minor problems here, nothing major. And yes. when you live by the ocean, you always keep up on the latest tropical reports. Night!!!!!
Niters Mits!
Lights going out for me too! Keep watching NillaBean!
dont know for sure big as a golf ball??? alil smaller? Niters Thelma seesm to be still windy there her tail feathers really blew up and she turned around as if facing the wind now
Niters Vick i to am heading out been up since 7:30 am getting tired
Other than the wind blowing her feathers around nothing is happening... Going on 1:30am .. first eggs ws laid Aug2nd normally 33 days incubation so should be any time now.. This is the 7th guess when its ready it will hatch.. Night & Good Morning Suz
hey guys... check out this website:
www.carolinaraptorcenter.org
I've actually been to the center, a few years ago, and it's just beautiful. they have an absolutely gorgeous Leucistic Red Tailed Hawk
(her feathers are white, but she's not albino) named Honeysuckle.
ANYHOO, they have video clips of bald eagle chick that were born at their facility!
if anyone has a chance to go to this place in person, i highly recommend it!
also, they have posted a video of Freida rescuing her eggs after a particularly strong gust of wind, if you haven't already seen it... at 11 pm phoenix time, which is 4 pm Freida time, the camera was not zoomed in as close, so i can see all of her on her nest... posting it on group site in Freida album....
also, i have posted new pictures in my album on the group site...
bg
Sorry, everyone... I watched Freida until I couldn't make anything out anymore (the night vision turns on at 6 pm Freida time), and didn't see any hatchlings. BUT... she kept tucking her head UNDER her breast, perhaps peeking at a hatch in progress, or perhaps hearing the chick peeping??? I hope one of us gets the first picture!!!
Since Freida is 17 hours ahead of me, that means it's after 1 am here, and I should get my butt in bed...LOL!
watch for hatchlings!!!
birdgirl
FYI:
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.
Good morning Suzanne!
Heading to work here - everyone have a great day :)
Good morning Suzanne. Yes Lun Lun had her baby. I was watching at the time they said it was born but her back was to the camera and you couldn't even tell. They turn the camera off at 5 p.m. and I watched until then and they said the baby was born at 4:51. If you go to that website, there are a couple of pictures of the new baby. I would never have dreamed that a newborn Panda would look like a rat! :)
MT nest at BW and CT. Eaglet in NU nest but live feed won't come up.
Morning all, very foggy morning here, also. FULL MOON tonite!! Waiting for the grass to dry so I can mow, can't believe how tall the grass is, hate when it's scratching at my ankles.
Morning earlier than me Suzanne, Belle, and Sharon also lurkers.
If Lun Lun has a 2nd birth they will probably take the cub to raise by the zoo people. Panda Moms usually kill (accidentally the 2nd panda baby cub).
Going to look at the Frieda site ty Suzanne.
WOW WOW WOW What a video of Frieda getting blow all over the places up there. Blow off the eggs several times!!!!! She even had to gather the eggs they were blow!!!! You've got to watch this video on Frieda's site...
Maybe now we know why Harrisburg had that wooden thing up there. To protect the falcon against the winds. Being that high up with their nest.
Thanks again for telling us Suzanne. Poor Frieda; sure was rocking and rolling...
I believe if there would have been any "fuzzies" up on that roof. Frieda might have lost atleast one to that wind. Best the eggs hadn't hatched yet.
They need to put something on that roof for later incase of high winds again.
I have to go out for awhile check in when I get back.
Tai and Mei are wrestling at the edge of the ledge again. Oh my, that made me so nervous. They are away from the edge now. I really don't want to see that baby fall again!
Tai is at the milkbar this morning. By the way, where are our UK girls?
Good morning all. Dark where Freida is OOOOPs bet you knew that No more news on little Panda cub yet. you knew that too? so exactly how many places you been before checking in here lOL.
Off to coffee and dogs treats. have a great day.
I been everywhere, Man, I been everywhere!
