NILLA You said Ok Jo usually on Saturdays the gate is open and since the guards know most of us ..lol wont be a problem getting in they know we are harmless..lol
However The Saturday after Thanksgiving when I went to get my wreath & then to the nest - The gates were closed. You think because it was Thanksgiving holiday? Maybe we should call just to be certain- well we'll go to the curve if they are closed.

NillaWafer said...

Thelam dear now would i yell??? No just getting everyones attention the time is passing by fast and will be saturday before you know it..lol

NillaWafer said...

I am home from my little trip out to see the Eagles. I did see 5 of them and snapped some photos I will try to get them uploaded at some point today. However I came on here now to say

Thank You so very much I went to my email and saw there is a list of images waiting for me. I am in tears because you are so very special to me and are coming through to help

I am working on changing most likely changing Flight times to AZ and getting some extra time off. I will try to leave this weekend instead of next Fri. My Daughter needs some help to get all these finals and concerts pulled off and free her husband to be here with his Dad. I will have access to my email and all of these things and it is a wonderful diversion from this other difficult time for my family. MTBR We are waiting on Surgery time and date now and just trying to plug the rest in.

((((((hugs to you)))))))) I am emotinally very touched to see the email look the way it did as I came home.

I have returned. Hello Doreen
Happy to hear from you - Your little prince was being a devilish little guy early today. The new Gal in Atlanta will get her official name this week.
There is an eagle now on the BlackWater Osprey cam. Doreen, they have brought up the Eagle cam at BW. Just checked and found MT nest in Maine and Kent,WA. Our Florida eagle is still keeping that egg(s) warmed - what they say - January would be hatching?

MITS said...

Eagle working on the nest again at FLA.

MITS said...

Yes, Jo, you are correct.

Anonymous said...

Speaking of working on the nest-- Don't you think Liberty & Belle have a good many sticks in the nest that need to be placed on the sides of the nest before those eggs come?

MITS said...

Yes, I do, they better get their collective butts busy:).

Anonymous said...

Do you mean collective BEAKS?

LOL

MITS said...

ROFLMBO!!!! yes, collective, beaks, Jo

Did he have a fish before, Mits? I saw him cleaning his beak and doing the crop thingy....maybe he had some in reserve!

I have 2 girlfriends, now it's 3 girlfriends, who place snowmen all over their houses at Christmas. They're on the stair steps, kitchen cupboards & tables, every shelf in the place, on beds and even on the toilet paper holder! Good things is that snowmen can stay up as decorations all winter long! Right, Mits

I need to finish decorating the inside of my home..........

MITS said...

You right, Jo, I keep mine up til almost the end of January. I'm going to watch TV and put some more snowmen out, the little buggers are driving me crazy, I think they make snowbabies during the year they are in the attic, just when I think I'm done...more snowmen:):):).

Just a quick Hi Got so busy this afternoon I never did get to that nap I really wanted to take. No pictures uploaded from my little trip either, although I only saw like 4 eagles. May do that later, maybe not until tomorrow. I do have the new Loop up and ready though if you don't want to wait for the Feed Blitz in the am...just go have a look.

Eric's Dad's surgery is tomorrow at 3:30 pm. my time...which is central Time Zone. There is no way to get him there in time for the surgery now so he has talked with his dad tonight and will talk to him again in the morning. Then we all wait for the outcome of the surgery and the Post Op Course. Thanking you again for upholding Jim in your prayers especailly tomorrow. Good Night all. Thanks so much for all the fun photos and comments today. it made a lighter spot in what has been a pretty heavy day. ((((hugs))))

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good evening, my friends. How is everybody this evening?

My Mattie is with me tonight and already asleep.

Not long before I go to bed. Have to get up at 6:30.

You hear that Jo our own Lil Mits running the camera down there now thats impressive HUH???LOL

NillaWafer said...

Sharon Hugs aww i think Mattie loves you alot. Does Auntie Sharon spoil her?lol Doesnt matter she can be the daughter you never had right!!! Kids know where they are loved

MITS said...

I just checked cam 1 and it looks like she is sleeping on her side, if that is Mei, it could be Tai, because I don't see him anywhere

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mattie calls me Sissy. Actually she calls me and my sister both Sissy. Before my gastric bypass (weighing 350 pounds) I was called Big Sissy and Beverly was Little Sissy. Now she just calls me Sissy. She is just a special 8-year-old. She is a great problem solver. She is a good kid (as long as she gets her way, of course). :):):)
