Copied over from past thread :-)


Thanks Norma Yes I am driving in first snow of the year, and its a whopper. neighbor and I just finished shoveling me out LOL. Grabbing a bowl of cereal real quick now and hoping to see a plow go by on my street, not gonna happen, but once I get a couple of blocks it should get much much better. No school anywhere today so the kids are NOT out this morning!!!! :-)

Its not volunteer although in the future I certainly will have what I do on the list of places I will Volunteer..... But for today .I have a major responsibility to be there...today and get it set to go tomorrow.

Will BLOG tonight a little unless I get snowed in there, at least where I am working I can get snowed in and have food warmth and a bed to sleep in...its not all that bad once I get there.


Have a safe day out east too.

Good Morning (Almost noon) All eagles should be soaring with ease in this blustery wind. Thanks for the news article - guess that eaglet looks just like our 3 kids who are only a few months older. I just thought all the eaglets(juvies) would be down in warmer climates by now.
Don't blow off the road on your way home Suzanne

Yes, Suz it is windy! I can hear it whistling thru the windows here. Still a balmy 66°, temp hasn't dropped yet!

WOW!!! someone turn off the fan!!! Really battling the wind out there.. had to cut some greens, yikes, this is awful. At least no major rain so far, but this wind is scary. Hope everyone's power stays on. Hey Glo hope you make it to and from work ok. My daughter wants your snow,she was pouting this morning seeing the weather, might send her your way to help shovel. Back to work, BBL if it's possible and I don't blow away out there.

I can't bear the thought of GLO out there shoveling snow! The wind has died now some here - now the temps will probably dive down!

Lynda always gets the best close ups.
Oh, Boy! That's a great shot. Looking right at camera. I agree with Paula that temps down there are high and that's the reason for the 'open beak' a lot of the time and that the eagle isn't really squawking. I love this live feed....

Hi everyone. Made it to work and home safely. Tough getting in but not bad at all getting home, well ya know til you get to the subdivisions and want down your street. I actually did get my car to and into my dirveway and finally garage though. My neighbor lady has hers int he street. Not good for her car or the street when the plows do finally go through. She has 2 sons close enough to help her hopefully later this evening though. My guess is the plows will do a much better job during the night and tomorrow Our Open House should be fine weather. We are expecting 150 people who helped to put this together. NOT open to the Public though so sorry as it is actually an undisclosed loaction etc. Very Very exciting for a handful of us as we have watched a dream and a prayer come to be right before our very eye!!!! Time now to eat!

HI EVERYONE, Glo that is truly amazing that you can get a snow-plow in your sub-division right after a storm, we do not have that amount of equipment here in the DC area, so people make fun of us, when we can't get our act together, right after a storm, and there are alot of hilly areas in Montgomery and Frederick counties.

Hi My Eagle Friends.

Pretty late getting in here.

Yesterday I laughed and laughed at Tai outside eating bamboo laying on his back same as he is doing now inside.

Glo glad you was able to make it in and out. How much snow did you all get?

Was getting hair cut today. Electric went out twice in that short amount of time in the beauty shop.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hello Dana. How goes it with you?

MITS said...

Jo, that e-mail really amazed me too, like having a dog, but none of the responsibility.

Poor little Tai has such a rough life. I don't know how the little feller makes it from day to day! :):):)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Yeah, that dog email was awesome!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mei looks like she is having a hard time finding the comfort zone.

All of a sudden he is really into the bamboo and loving it.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, I am feeling like a neglected redheaded stepchild! :)

They eat a lot of bamboo, but it passes thru their system in about 5 hours, so they have to eat a lot to feel full. Pandas poop even though they are sound asleep. Nice little tid-bit of knowledge.

I agree about the panda poop, I told them that I would probably be doing the same thing in about 20 years. Jo, remember a couple of reports back on the panda page, they informed us they would probably be watching Mei and Tai 24/7 during the weekends, they are concentrating on how many times he is nursing now and if they will pull the plug or let him to continue to nurse.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Its beak is really wide at the end.

Yes Mits, I do remember it was in the report. I thought I was seeing some lights on & thought of that same information. Looks as Tai is too interested in his bamboo. I don't know what is with Mei.... sorta restless.

Dana,
I agree. Nothing they have there strikes me as the right one...maybe we are too used to Buta Buta or Buta Ball.
I thought they might have "Atlanta Peach" or "Georgia Peach" as a pick, but don't even see that!

More sightings of our eagles! I received this email this morning.


I saw the most amazing thing this morning.

Hi,

I heard the squawk of a bird a few minutes ago (about 7:10 AM) and looked out the window toward the river.

I saw an adult eagle flying in circles but not landing as if to fish which is what we would normally expect to see.

After a couple of circles over our patio (facing the river) and new screened porch I saw an immature eagle also flying right with the adult, also in circles.

This continued for a minute or so, then they flew off towards Shepherdstown, still circling though, as they moved away.

I have no idea what was going on but it was fascinating behavior and a great payoff for being up early on Saturday morning!

Any ideas what might have been happening? Was the adult teaching the younger one something or trying to lead it away? We are probably only a mile from the nest in the sycamore, as the eagle flies.

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Mema Jo it really wasn't a poem. It was just some fun thoughts I jotted down.

What's funny is the whole time they were looking for him. He had come down out of the tree. Setting beside it muching on bamboo like crazy. Guess they kept getting him mixed up with Mei lol

There is an update for Friday on Atlanta Panda site. Interesting information.
I was hoping they would tell us about LunLun taking ButaButa for 2 separate trips out of the nest bed yesterday around 4:30.

Xiao Tao (shao-tao) how do you prounce " shao ". Because they seem to be called by the first part of the chinesse name like Mei --- she is call Mei. Tai Shan is called Tai. So how do you say " shao "??
