MITS said...

THANK YOU STEVEN, REALLY APPRECIATE THE NEW THREAD!!

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Steven!

Don't forget to vote!

paula eagleholic said...

Mits,
I'm not sure that is a bird on the FL cam, it hasn't moved...might be a branch.

paula eagleholic said...

Wow, pic on FL is super zoomed now.

paula eagleholic said...

Is now in my realplayer as "eaglecam1" instead of "eaglecam2"

paula eagleholic said...

MT nests everywhere for now!

paula eagleholic said...

Everyone napping? :)

Dana, you get that computer up yet?

MITS said...

Heading out to vote...BBIALW!

paula eagleholic said...

Raining here in Frederick now.

glo said...

I'm not napping but I can't get diddly squat published in here today. Not sure this will publish either but its not because I am not trying LOL

Mema Jo said...

Butaball is really progressing. She holds that little head up very well and now it's as though she is conscience of her surroundings. Those little back feet act as paddles and helps her turn.

I did vote - took my cheat sheet and was out in no time flat. Looked as though the turn out is a nice steady flow of voters.

Mema Jo said...

Tai and Mei are inside - maybe due to the rain. Tai has his 'honey' box.
I sometimes check out the Brisbane ledge - only thing I ever see is that the plants are growing nicely. I should email beakspeak to take it off the top list.

Still some rain showers here....

Mema Jo said...

Glo You might not be napping, but that sounds like a good suggestion to me......... BBL

paula eagleholic said...

Nice and sunny up in Maine!

MITS said...

Still sunny up in Maine which means the cam is not working, there sun goes down about 4:50 up there. There does diffenttly look like some type of bird just sitting beyond the FLA nest.

paula eagleholic said...

LOL, still bright and sunny up in Maine at 5:10pm....I'd say the cam was stuck!


Sharon, hope you feel better, get your work done and head to bed!

MITS said...

There is now a Master-Card commercial before PETES" POND comes on.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, for the moment my fever has broken so I am not aching as bad as earlier. This has been a tough day. Haven't watched any cams today but Buta Buta. Hopefully it is just a 24-hour bug and I will feel like working at 5 a.m. More will definitely be revealed!

Just Vicky said...

Wow, this place is asleep! Or, out voting!

MITS said...

Get some rest, Sharon. Well, the KENT cam#1 froze on me, now I can't get onto the site at all.

MITS said...

Hi, Vicky!!!!

MITS said...

Yes, Lisa, sounds good to me!!!!

MITS said...

Man, I really didn't think that was going to post.

Mema Jo said...

Washington state is having some severe weather conditions - let's hope that is the problem with the cam.

Hi Vicky
Hi there Lisa


Everyone is hopefully at the polls or eating dinner.

I just emailed Glo that I hadn't had any problems with the blog AND
now I just got the error page........

Mema Jo said...

I also got a double posting that I will now delete........ lol

Just Vicky said...

This place seems to have gone bonkers! So many having problems, so far so good for me!

Just Vicky said...

Are you here Mema Jo??

Just Vicky said...

Well, I can't get into the Momster site!

Mema Jo said...

Type on last comment - sorry
Did you catch it? Or was I too fast for you?

I am here and about... Playing some games in between comments. Did Yahoo get you, Vicky? Have you seen Suzanne's pic yet? Email me if you can't get to them.

Mema Jo said...

Lun Lun had to take the floor for her nap... Butaball is filling up the nest bed.

Just Vicky said...

I finally got in, sure gives you goose bumps looking at Mr. & Mrs. Liberty and Belle!

Mema Jo said...

They sure do - takes your breath away for a moment - I am so anxious for the cam to come up - The second cam could very well capture the branch they're always on.

Mema Jo said...

Just noticed the fireplace - The temp seems to be warming - next few days are to be back up in the 70's. It was rainy today and very dismal.

Just Vicky said...

Thought maybe the crackling fire would help folks gather around to chat!

Just Vicky said...

Just Me and Mema JO!

Mema Jo said...

Did you mind not doing any of the driving on your recent trip?
How far did you travel?

Just Vicky said...

Oh Mema JO, we drove a lot of miles! I would have loved to have driven but it was ok! We probably drove over 2100 miles all total.

Mema Jo said...

Sounds like you all covered a lot of territory. I'm sure the scenery and sights were well worth the drive.

I'm going to BBL - Need to do a few things - Tomorrow is my 48th anniversary - That's a long time!

paula eagleholic said...

Hi Vicky!

Congrats Jo on your 48th Anniversary!

Just Vicky said...

Wow, 48 years to the same person?? That's about unheard of these days! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Just Vicky said...

Hi Paula!

Just Vicky said...

Wanna race for the wax?

MITS said...

WOW, that is just fantastic, Jo!!! Happy "48th"!!!!!!!

Just Vicky said...

I know how these momsters operate, they lurk and then they stike in at the right moment for WAX!

Just Vicky said...

Hi Mits

Just Vicky said...

wax

Just Vicky said...

Ok, now I can lay back and lurk!

glo said...

AWWW! Mema Jo 48 years how absolutely wonderful Congratulations and a very Happy Anniversay to both of you. Now here's hoping this will publish.

MITS said...

Hi again, Vicky..bye Vicky...going to watch "HOUSE"

MITS said...

Hi, Glo, bye, Glo.

Just Vicky said...

I'm with you Mits!

Just Vicky said...

Hello Glo! Is it working for you now??

glo said...

Yes I restarted my computer and it published fine tonight. I had restarted it first thing this morning too though...actually I turned it off all night and it Never did load well all day for me.

glo said...

LOL Well I am glad I got to post a ocuple of times and have it actually Publish. Think I'll join everyone else now and go watch some TV. Will check back in before bedtime.

Mema Jo said...

Hi Paula, Glo & Vicky.... Cindi just sent me an email and since I remembered so many of the things mentioned - it proved that I was "old as dirt"! lol Yep! Same guy - he always tells people that he is surprised I put up with him for so long.

Thanks for the card, Mits
Knocked my socks off! lol

Mema Jo said...

Going to call it quits for the day.

Good Night All
Sweet dreams of sunshine!



Good Morning Suzanne

floralgirl said...

Goodnite, Jo!! Hope you have a happy anniversary tomorrow!

paula eagleholic said...

OK, done watching TV. Election returns will dominate the rest of the night!

paula eagleholic said...

Hey Floral, how you doing? Can you email me your address?

MITS said...

Good Night, Jo, have a happy day tomorrow. Yep, won't be watching anymore TV tonight. These news people give me the heebe-geebees!!! HELLO, FLORALGIRL, HOW ARE YOU??

floralgirl said...

Doing good, Mits, thanks. Making bows for wreaths, fingers are worn out. Will send you my address, Paula.

floralgirl said...

Paula, you have mail. Watching election returns with the sound turned down, that way I can see some results, but don't have to listen to the babbleheads.

MITS said...

Babbleheads ...that's a good one. I know I'm dating myself, but I used to watch the election stuff when it would be a surprise, now th minute the polls close you know the winners. I'm like Jo, I read that e-mail today and I scored "older than dirt".

floralgirl said...

Well, I can no longer keep my eyes open, have to see the rest of election results in the morning. Nite, all.

MITS said...

Nite, Floralgirl.

MITS said...

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE.

glo said...

Fell asleep on the couch. Must be all the excitement on TV LOL. So came in here to say Good Night too. Rest well. I'll Blog at you all tomorrow.

wvgal_dana said...

Hi My Eagle Friends. Nice to be back. I've missed all of you.
I don't think anytime soon I'll be going back and reading all the blogs I missed lol.
I see some of you have new pics I like them.
I'll catch you all tomorrow I hope.

Hi Jim who might be coming in after this.


Good Morning Suzanne talk to you later.

glo said...

Happy 48th Anniversay to Mr and Mrs Mema Jo

Good morning Suzanne I got 2 different emails from you this morning.

Welcome back Dana

Good morning to everyone else.

Mauley said...

Morning Eagle Land, Suzanne Dana and Lisa. Isn't it wonderful to be an EagleMomster? 48 years of wedded bliss. Isn't it amazing, Mema Jo, how time flies when you are having a good time. It makes our 37 years seem just like yesterday. Mema Jo must have gotten married when she was 8 years old. And she doesn't even look 40 yet. Congratulations God has blessed you both today. love donna

Mauley said...

Hi Glo, where are you mits? donna

MITS said...

Here I am, MAULEY/DONNA I'm right behind you, thanks for holding the door open for me!!GOOD MORNING EVERYONE! Welcome back, DANA, how's the computer running now. SUZANNE I know that as MEMA JO had posted yesterday, Washington State has had severe weather, but briefly yesterday, when my cam came up, it said something about restructering the cam to help out with broadband issues. I also sent an e-mail to the contact out there, no reply. Raining right now and it is 58° Have a good one!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning everyone. My sick butt is trying to work so I probably won't be on here much again today. Mema Jo, a very happy anniversary to you. Your husband is truly blessed to have you.

I will try to check back in later.

glo said...

Will be watching for any info you might get from Kent Mits So sorry to hear you are sick Sharon I hope today finds you feeling better. No more 5 days in a row off for you. You need to stay home and away from germs LOL.

Off to coffee and dog treats for me.

Mauley said...

So sorry you are sick, sister Sharon, God Bless you today in the name of His Dear Son. Hope you are much better soon. Hi Mits, donna

MITS said...

The eagles in FLA must be camera shy...haven't seen one since it has been up. Don't know what is wrong with MAINE, 2 weeks ago in all that bad weather it was fine, now...nothing.

MITS said...

Petes' Pond little remote boat is on the move!!

MITS said...

BAMBOONS AT PETES'.

MITS said...

Its a wonder that the little remote boat doesn' scare the animals.

MITS said...

Good shot of "FATTY", and I can hear some elephants.

MITS said...

And here they come racing to the water!!!!

MITS said...

Look out little fellow, Fatty is close by. WOW!!! look at all of them!!!

MITS said...

I just LOVE those elephants!!!!

MITS said...

SUZANNE thanks for the note to my sister "the lurker" and yes, I would fall off my chair if she ever came on, but there is always that hope.

MITS said...

Tai is up the tree, and, Mei is eating...so what's new????

MITS said...

Maine cam is up...MT nest and cloudy day!

Mauley said...

Wax for Mits.

MITS said...

Oh dear, did not notice that...sending it off to Illnois...when I sent a batch to DANA to help with her puter, it didn't work.

MITS said...

Yes, Suz, Maine cam is up.

wvgal_dana said...

Good Wednesday Morning Eagleland. This computer is different. I held down a couple of keys when I started typing this. The keyboard would not type anymore lol crazy. I found a place to uncheck (thank goodness).

Looks like right now I still have to remember duh brain is starting to run dry. Remember how I got chubby Buta Buta in my windows media player.

wvgal_dana said...

Thank you Suzanne so (: Happy to be back !!

I am on Tai and Mei and Mei is barking like crazy.

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning All Thanks for all the well wishes!

Pete's Pond - Here come the giraffe!

wvgal_dana said...

Happy Anniversary Jo congtrs. Glad I made it back in time.

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Jo this is my first for seeing gariffes there.

wvgal_dana said...

She acts like she wants Tian

glo said...

I sent some of you a fun link. Tried to post it on here but couldn't get it to do it. Not sure if it will work or not.

wvgal_dana said...

Tai is down out of the tree. He and Mei are wanting in. Although Mei was barking before that and still is.
I hope she is ok because when she pee'd they took the cam in real close. Like they were looking at it; maybe an infection?

wvgal_dana said...

Hi Glo !

wvgal_dana said...

Ok they just let Mei and Tai inside.

wvgal_dana said...

Geeze I'm talking to myself. Yeah I've done that for days while I couldn't get on computer lol.

Fatty up on land "boy guy".

Just Vicky said...

Goodmorning Eagleland! Thanks Mits for your wax donation to Illinois!

MITS said...

DANA they always get a close-up shot whenever the go to the bathroom, their BM's are white. Fatty is out of the pond and the Impalas have just walked by to get a drink.

Mema Jo said...

Welcome back, Dana. Hope the computer does well for you.

Tai & Mei are inside now. Mits, what do you think they were picking up from the floor when they first came in-couldn't see anything there.

The Impala are now at Pete's. Last night I saw just one elephant family - Mom-Dad and baby. Great to watch them.

Sharon I sure hope this bug doesn't last too many more days - You'll know when the Dr needs to be seen, I'm sure.

Mema Jo said...

That dumb duck is going to get it from Fatty.....

MITS said...

Jo, they fed them little biscuits full of good stuff for them to eat. Yes, SHARON, listen to MEMA JO, go to the doctors!!! Sounds like she has the 1st confirmed case of the flu in WVA!!

MITS said...

I think "FATTY" just pretends to be asleep and then....WHAM....he's got you.

MITS said...

THANKS, SUZ!!!!!!!!!!1

MITS said...

I am way past ready for ours...just seeing your pics from the other night was enough to wet my whistle.

glo said...

Ditto

Mema Jo said...

BLUE SCREEN IT IS..

MITS said...

Yes indeed blue screen here!!

Mema Jo said...

Was watching Tai hanging head down in his tree - I was thinking he was about to fall & the Camera zoomed away from him........ I bet ya!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle at BW

MITS said...

screen is back with an eagle.

Mema Jo said...

BW pic is up & running..

Mema Jo said...

Good morning, Paula

MITS said...

Hi, Paula!!

MITS said...

Eagle back at KENT

Mema Jo said...

I see the Kent eagle - more moving of sticks. I wonder if that camera lens on Cam 1 is just dirty?

Mema Jo said...

Great update, Suzanne.

Mauley said...

wax

Mema Jo said...

Checked for a new thread & comments - Not there yet.

Mema Jo said...

MAULEY ! I don't believe you were being a LURKER

CONGRATS MAULEY

150 lbs of wax !

Mema Jo said...

Both eagles in nest at Kent

Mauley said...

Mauley just going back to read yesterday blogs. Mauley not a lurker. Mauley just an EagleMomster. Mema Jo, tell us about all those years of wedded bliss. Did your husband win the wife lottery or what. We Momsters think he did. love donna

paula eagleholic said...

And no sightings yet in FL

wvgal_dana said...

Sharon I think you better be listening to Dr. Mits and Dr. Jo.. wow gal you take 5 days off. You went around all those nice people and caught yourself something. No more 5 days off for you (just kidding). Get well and hope you feel better soon.

MITS said...

Congrats, MAULEY!!

Mauley said...

Sister Sharon, Listen to Jo and Mits. Have you had a flu shot, yet. love sister donna

MITS said...

No, Donna, she has not had her flu shot yet!!! I know I'm a big tattle-tail:):):)

wvgal_dana said...

Hand covering my mouth, Mits tattled on Sharon lol

wvgal_dana said...

Kidding around here hope everyone knows

MITS said...

OOOPPPSS, do you think I'm in trouble, DANA???

MITS said...

Yes, DANA, we know:):):):)!!!

wvgal_dana said...

They are showing the beautiful sunset in Africa.
Let's get with the program and show some animals. I've been deprived of seeing them. Didn't any of you write to Africe Pete's Pond and tell them my computer was down? That when I came back I would need animals aniamls eagles eagles pandas pandas more and more :)

Mema Jo said...

I bet Sharon orders the wet noodle wacker from Glo.

You know what our Sharon would say to you Mits:

Nan nan nan Doo Doo !

Mema Jo said...

Ha! I think I missed saying one more Nan !

Did all of you see our dear boy, Tai and his Mother?

Mema Jo said...

Need to go over to check out emails.. Got so wrapped up in the blog, I forgot to do it this morning. BBL

Mauley said...

Flu shots are a necessity now, not an option. You go girl. get one because we love you. thanks donna

MITS said...

ROFLMBO, JO!!! Sharon is going to come after me with the wet noodle and smack me silly!!!

MITS said...

There is a human whistling while he works at PETES"POND.

MITS said...

You are right, MAULEY!!

wvgal_dana said...

Mits ty I thought this computer went nuts on me lol. I'm there no animals but this guy whistling lol lmbo

MITS said...

Yes, DANA beautiful sunset at Petes' Pond, man has stopped whistling.

MITS said...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who heard it:):):)!

MITS said...

Beautiful pinks, blues and purples, man just dropped a bucket.

wvgal_dana said...

Tai just went up a pine tree and they are trying to find him with the cam.

wvgal_dana said...

I think Tai might be in the willow tree...as they were scanning I think I saw him.

wvgal_dana said...

Mits get out the orange flag mans jacket for them.

MITS said...

That cub is a climbing fool...

MITS said...

Here come the elephants at petes'pond

Mema Jo said...

Those crazy flashing birds makes you think of fireworks.

Incidentally - Mei looks very sad..Maybe she isn't feeling well. Wish they would give an update...

MITS said...

Yeah a new update on the zoo page, doesn't help to e-mail them, been doing that for over a year, the only person who responds to me is the KIWI keeper. I don't think Mei is up to snuff lately, may be her hormones or something like that. Elephants still at the pond.

wvgal_dana said...

Is everyones real player working right at Pete's Pond..can you see each movement of the elephants trunk and feet?

MITS said...

Mine is working fine, DANA

Mema Jo said...

Dana Sometimes the cam looks as though it freezes up, but stick with it because it comes right back on. There are times when the word "communicating" comes on the bottom of the screen and it takes a minute or two to start up again. It isn't common for this all to happen.

Mema Jo said...

Mits Check out DC cams - do you think the one shot is of Tian Tian and not Mei? Mei seems to be walking around now at the bldg on Cam 2 & I think Cam 1 is him.

MITS said...

Looks like TIAN in the new yard, Tai up the tree, I think, and Mei walking back and forth between the old yards???

MITS said...

Talk to you tomorrow, SUZ!!! WHEN ARE YOU GETTING THAT COMPUTER UP AT HOME??????

wvgal_dana said...

Later Suzanne

Sorry everyone that I haven't been talking. Was "lost in cyberworld"
):

paula eagleholic said...

Quote - "Nan nan nan Doo Doo !

Ha! I think I missed saying one more Nan !"

Mema Jo, I think the correct terminology is

Nanny, Nanny, Boo, Boo


:):)

wvgal_dana said...

Paula Jo's quote I think which was as you said "Nan nan nan Doo Doo". I think she is just mixed up with the eagles "poop shoots" that she is FAMOUS for by photographer Todd. lol

glo said...

I am thinking of switching the Feed Blitz site over to The Beta account, and was doing some reading. This is what I discovered, which means if I read it right, sooner or later it is going to affect ALL of us. For the Love of Eagles is already on the Google Beta acocut etc. Might NOT mean anything to you today, BUT think I will be sticking my neck out and trying to get the Eagles from Shepherdstown Blog with all the videos from last year etc. moved over. I am going to try to be sure I have them all saved someplace first ( where I can find them LOL) so we odn't lose any of these int he process. I do like the way the Beta sets up the Blogsite etc. Much easier as administrator to deal with. But I am scared I will lose some important information. Wish me well and stay tuned. MTBR LOL

OK here is what I read this morning

When you see the invitation to create a Google Account and join Blogger in beta, you're welcome to postpone it and switch later at a more convenient time. If you do this, your old Blogger login will continue to work as before. However, after a couple of months we will begin requiring you to switch in order to access your Blogger account.

Remember: You can create a new Google Account when you switch if you don't already have one, and it costs nothing. You'll have a new login to user for Blogger, but you'll also have access to all the new features. For more information about switching, please see: Why is Blogger switching to Google Accounts?

MITS said...

HUH????

Mema Jo said...

GLO: We as Momsters have Yahoo accounts.... I was getting confused until I realised that I don't have a google account. The more you read, it looks as though we should sign up for google account--Let us know when you think that should happen.

Last years' records: Have you considered starting all new records for this year????

To Whom It May Concern:
Nanny Nanny BOO BOO !
LOL

Mema Jo said...

WAX 200 lbs of it !!

Going to IL

MITS said...

Just went over to DENBURY FARMS as I do sometimes, and there is a very disturbing commercial on bears. I wish I could send money to everyone, humans and animals, that need it.

MITS said...

LOL!!!, Jo those ladies are not going to make it out of Ill. with all that wax!!

Mema Jo said...

I will BBL

Mema Jo said...

Had to come back with one more comment:
Rumsfeld stepped down.

(Think I spelled his name correctly - but I know you know who I mean.)

MITS said...

Beautiful day in FLA, too bad there are no eagles.

MITS said...

Yes, I saw that, Jo.

glo said...

New records for this year...Well that is a thought Would mean all new Feed Blitz subscripts. I don't know. I am going to SAVE all of that somewhere as I said, and try to switch it over. It does warn you that you can't switch back. My Grandbaby's BLOG is on the original Blogger too. It also has videos etc. I think it switches ALL the BLOGS I have now under glo over at the same time. Yes I do think we are all including Steve and this BLOG going to eventually have to switch. Since there are no video or 3rd party feeds on this site I don't think that is going to become a problem for Steve to switch this over. I have a google account now to set up that For the Love of Eagles BLOG but it has that rediculously long display name about visiting both shops LOL. We'll see how this all plays out...I was just kind of shoocked when I started reading that it came right out and said eventually they will Make us all get a Google account.

.Yes, I do think especially for some of our Bloggers who have a bit of a hard time getting their names in blue etc. the sooner the better, but 2 things

Sharon is sick right now, and I am packing to go out of town.

We will all get New whatevers because we will all help each other to do just that.

I think we have a few weeks at least left to get switched over. I can't remember the first time i saw that Google Beta thing show up, but they can't or won't do it ALL of a sudden I would HOPE ANYWAY.

Let me do the switch, Let me talk with Sharon about how easy/challenging it was, and next week, maybe she and I can both help those who need help, to get switched over one at a time. That would be my suggestion right now with the info we all have so far anyway.

Mema Jo said...

Sounds like a plan, Glo

Have a great trip to GA !

paula eagleholic said...

Mema Jo,
Yahoo accounts are for the eaglet momsters group, they don't have anything to do w/ signing in to the blog.

paula eagleholic said...

They are going to require that you get a google account at some point to sign into the blog, that's all. They say it is a more secure login.
