Tuesday Jan 30

We went out to reset the faulty voltage box this morning and as you can see it would no longer reset. The new box has been ordered and hopefully will come soon.

as always hang in there. The new equipment should fix this once and for all.

For those that kept asking about NIlla. I did go back and check Nilla has NOT be in blog since Saturday January 27 last comment 8:56am wich is really 11:56am. Then some mentioned about an email that was sent. Nilla hasn't come in since then.????????

wvgal_dana said...

I am so glad the Maine site is back up. As soon as I got to it. I could hear the eagles calling. Oh how I just love those calls.

Mema Jo said...

Hi everyone - Back from Post Office... Carol Suzanne and I were talking about trying to keep outside water for the strays - I'll have to look into what you have. Megan, I know Jenny wants one for her birdbath. She called very excited this afternoon that she has spoted a pair of pileated woodpeckers hanging around her house near the woods. They are very large & beautiful. She hopes they nest near by.

Mema Jo said...

Both eagles in the Twin Harbors nest
Blackwater & Fl each have one in nest
Others are MT...

MEGAN - how are we ever going to know if Belle laid an egg on your birthday?

STEVE This also means that there isn't any picture coming into the set in the main lobby - right?

We just had less then an hour long snow - very heavy & wet. Roads are bare..33 degrees

wvgal_dana said...

Buta Buta is on the move again.

Mema Jo said...

HERE COMES THE BAMBOO FOREST!!!

ButaButa is back in the back.I guess it awakened her.

Mema Jo said...

wvgal_dana said...

I checked our cam still crazy. Well maybe another day.

Poor Florida gal hasn't given up being in that nest. Leaves just for alittle while.

Good to know the young couple at BW look like they are doing better at parenting the eggs.

Maine has been wonderful back up. Hearing and seeing the eagles oh my.

Anyone seen Eagles at Kent today??

MITS said...

MITS said...

Cool the infra-red light is on up in MAINE.

MITS said...

Dana, Steven explained the situation at the beginning of this new Thread. Looks like it will keep "acting crazy" til the part comes in.

Mema Jo said...

Middletown Valley is having it's second dose of White Out. Really coming down.

Mema Jo said...

Need to check out ME

MITS This is the BIO Diversity one - right? You may wish to send me a link... I did Paula's link earlier but that was for the Blog up there.

Mema Jo said...

I'm ok - It came up immediately
Their infra red works!!

MITS said...

Its neat, too bad there are no eagles there right now, but when they are it will be great.

MITS said...

Still only 2 mins...wish they would extend it to 5.

wvgal_dana said...

Both eagles where just at the Florida nest. Not sure if he gave her food or not???? They beaked and were close together.

wvgal_dana said...

I can't help but still wonder if there isn't a eaglet in that nest "Hidden".

Mema Jo said...

Lady BW moved her flower (?) from 2:00 over to 8:00......

Mema Jo said...

By Golly! I see a large white polar bear out at SanDiego Zoo

glo said...

I am acctually eating supper. One of our gals is an excellent cook and woould likwe to eventually be a cook. Well she has my vote. Its quiet enought tonight as opposed to the 3 fire alrms we had one other tues night I worked, that I actually not only have a chance to eat, but also say hello. Since I do get off late though I will also say goodnight to all. Will bLOG tomorrow and hoe for better news very soon about our cam. Belle You just keep flying around some, and then placing those twigs just so. 12 O'clock is looking great..you know how we worry about the little ones falling off especially when they are first learning that "poop shoot " thing. Could you just maybe wait a while now for the ya know then egg thing cause us momsters, well you know we want to be there in the waiting room with you. Maybe start thinking Feb 9 or after like last year oK..Thanks!!!

Mema Jo said...

Hi Glo Glad your evening is quite.

Get home safely tonight.
Did send you email earlier concerning box #.

Mema Jo said...

Mema Jo said...

Was the Santa Cruz nipping at his feet? That's one way to get him to move.

Mema Jo said...

2 in at West End

MITS said...

That one eagle at WE likes to look at the cam.

MITS said...

Anybody home???

Mema Jo said...

Just me, maybe..

MITS said...

Everyone must be watchng American Idol.

Mema Jo said...

That very well could be - For sure
they aren't watching the WV cam...

MITS said...

Well...HOUSE is on and finally not a repeat..so I'm off to watch TV, since we don't have our nest BBL.

Mema Jo said...

I am going to take an hour or so break - end of the month - getting bills in order........ BBL

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Been playing solitaire, watching TV, arguing with small children this evening. I am grateful to say I have not been arguing with big children though. I am so blessed to have Andrew. Mattie's brother Justin has ADHD and can be quite the challenge sometimes. Thank God it is bedtime for the little ones.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mattie and I are going to find something to watch on TV. I hope everybody has a wonderful night.

Good night and sweet eagle dreams, my friends of fine feathers and fur.

Maybe FedEx will arrive at NCTC tomorrow with that beautiful voltage regulator. I would venture to say one of us could have gotten it to them quicker.

floralgirl said...

Thank you again to everyone for their birthday wishes. Hope tomorrow is the day they get that @#%# cam fixed. It is sooo cold and windy outside right now, 23° which is too bad cause with the snow on the ground and the big moon it is so bright outside and would be a cool nite to walk around the yard. But not tonite, cause it is freezing out there. The moon is full Friday. Eating chocolate ice cream cake, by the way, mmmm- hubby did good. Love to share it with all of you, but that would be less for me. LOL

paula eagleholic said...

I was watching the SC and WE eagles, then a little bit of Idol. Then I found some video from last week of L&B, so I made a movie of it. Waiting for it to finish processing and then have to load to youtube...probably be tomorrow before I get it posted.

Found some clips of the NE eagles I will probably make into a movie either later tonight or tomorrow nite.

paula eagleholic said...

Sounds like a great end to the day...hope you had a good one, Megan!

floralgirl said...

Thnaks, Paula.

MITS said...

Yes. Megan, glad you had a good day...Going to watch Boston Legal, then bed. GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE, TALK TO YOU TOMORROW..HOPE CAM PART COMES.

paula eagleholic said...

Had to bring Frosty back in celebration of the pretty snow tonight :)

sandyshaw said...

They may be weaning Tai, but at 11:20 PM he's at the milk bar. Guess he didn't read the note!

Mema Jo said...

Time for me to get back in here and say
Good Night Everyone
Pleasant dreams & peaceful sleep
Prayers going up for everyone



Good Morning Suzanne
Is the Cam up & Running?

sandyshaw said...

Guess the blog took my polar bears. Here (maybe) is an early groundhog.

sandyshaw said...

Testing.

wvgal_dana said...

Morning Suzanne it's cold and icy here. Suppose to get more snow Thursday.

wvgal_dana said...

I've been alittle unsure why they get a fish then eat alittle and leave it. Well I've been chacking it up to just too much food maybe.

wvgal_dana said...

I am throughly discussed with writing to l. white at the florida nest. She never answers me. I've tried it a month ago. The woman never answered me. I've wrote her just recently and she still doesn't answer me. I use the address that is on the page. So I know she gets them.

wvgal_dana said...

Suzanne what got the fish out of the Osprey nest. Had to be away from computer for a bit???

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning everyone. It is a balmy 10° here in Bluefield. It looks like it might have snowed just a little last night.

I hope everybody has a wonderful day!

wvgal_dana said...

bbl

glo said...

Good morning all. I'm not even sayingwhat the temp is here. When it gets to 10 or below it all feels awful and then you throw in the wind and it probably a lot like a cold day in ...... I will be off to coffee and dog treats soon. Then I am going looking for a new pair of boots "All on sale now" When I get home today I shall start working ont he Final Edition Of the Newsletter. It won't be in you email til most likely Monday. I may put a Headsup on here, hard to tell really. Since hopefully you all know now that everything is discounted to $1 over cost, I will need to sell 15 items to even get a last check from Cafe Press...just wanted you to know.

OK warm thoughts for all and right up to the top of a sycamore tree too.

floralgirl said...

Morning all! Suzanne, I have a heater that you set in the birdbath and plug in, it works really well. You can get them and heated bowls for pets at most bird supply stores, or Southern States, or Tractor Supply Co. Anywhere they sell supplies for livestock. The birdbath is one of the most popular spots in my yard this time of year, they really need water and everything is frozen.

MITS said...

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE 20°, SUNNY , NO WIND HERE IN BETHESDA. Lisa has a comparison shot of the eagles in the nest and 2 at osprey platfom on the osprey page. She doesn't think the couple are making to many visits to the platform, because they have eggs now:):):). Have a good one!

MITS said...

Suz, can you get Maine?

MITS said...

Tai is getting so big, I thought he was Tian, playing with Mei.

paula eagleholic said...

Morning!

Eagle at NE.

Thunder at SC.

Colder than a witches you know what out there.

MITS said...

I'm sooooo glad Frosty is back, Paula...still have my snowmen up here at home, might keep them up thru Feb.

MITS said...

Suz, you can see just a hint of dawn at KENT...love that branch cam.

wvgal_dana said...

Boy I just put another log on the fire for Pink Kitten. Too cold burrrrrrrrr.

MITS said...

When you put that full-screen up at NE...its awesome.

wvgal_dana said...

Mits I can't tell who is who anymore....Is that Tai on cam 2 laying on the tree thats on the ground??

wvgal_dana said...

Has anyone see any mating on NE???

MITS said...

I think that is Tai, Dana, it is one of his favorite spots in that yard. He likes to hang around the viewing glass. Cub is getting big:):):).

MITS said...

EAGLE AT SC...........

MITS said...

Never mind she just took off....

wvgal_dana said...

For the NE (Connecticut) Eagle Cam information from there:

2007 — Starting a New Season
Eagle Cam watchers should be on the lookout for renewed activity at the nest during February.
Eggs will appear over a three-or four-day period in the middle of March.

MITS said...

EAGLE JUST FLEW BACK IN AT SC...........

MITS said...

Color is not on at SC yet, can't see the number...very breezy.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Where is Buta? Where is Buta?

MITS said...

Don't know but the den is clean.

MITS said...

color is on at SC....

MITS said...

George is back

MITS said...

Up the branch he goes.

wvgal_dana said...

I heard women talking on Buta Buta's cam. I made sure it wasn't DC by disconning it. Check it out.

MITS said...

Ok, George and Georgette are visiting KENT.

paula eagleholic said...

No, Dana, have not seen any mating at NE...just a lot of nestorations. They sure are a hard working pair!

MITS said...

I don't hear anything at Atlanta.

wvgal_dana said...

Looking at Kent yep dashing in and out lol ...oooppps we shouldn't be looking right now. They are teaching the eagles what they are suppose to do to have eaglets !!!! lol

wvgal_dana said...

They are talking about listening to the noise and can hear talking. At Atlanta.

wvgal_dana said...

WELL I AM WRONG AGAIN THERE WAS A CAM ON THE BOTTOM TOOL BAR THAT WAS OPEN SORRY IT WAS ANIMAL PLANET DC ZOO !!! SORRY SORRY

wvgal_dana said...

Thank you all about Kent so I got to see both squirrel. One is certainly a male and the other a female.

I do think that one shot was a "private moment" though. wink

wvgal_dana said...

Mits you got the 100 lbs

Ok it is 10:30 where is our Buta Buta??

MITS said...

Darn, did not know that, sending it to NCTC.

sandyshaw said...

Good morning everyone. Elephant and bamboons at Wavelit.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, about an hour into having the opportunity to see Buta and still no Buta!!

paula eagleholic said...

Sandy,
Love your little groundhogs!

MITS said...

Sandra, missed the bamboons and elephants..only see the gazelles??

MITS said...

Ok, there is an elephant...

wvgal_dana said...

Buta Buta is on

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

There that little precious is. I love how she uses her enrichment items as beds and pillows.

MITS said...

I can hear the bamboonys.

MITS said...

Here comes a giraffe...

MITS said...

something scared the giraffe and off it went.

MITS said...

2 EAFLES AT BW.

MITS said...

Just made the switch at BW

MITS said...

:):):) That's EAGLES not eafles..

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Sandra got to see some several different types of animals at Wavelit.

Mits I'm looking up "eafles" you never know it could be a word.

Mema Jo said...

Good Late Brisk Morning to Everyone

Reading blogs & emails - I didn't realize our FredCnty schools were 2 hrs late due to ice.

Glad that the camera finally found our little Princess. Little Prince is enjoying his bamboo out in the yard. He sure does like to lie on his back & eat..........

wvgal_dana said...

The only thing I miss about the other house is the building we put the lawn mower in. We left a part open for the squirrles. Right beside the building is a cherry tree. When the squirrles had their babies it was so cute watching them running across the roof of the building. When they got older they would stretch their little paws to reach the tree. And a shakey little paw would make it on the tree. Still its paw shook as it reach for limbs.

wvgal_dana said...

Late Morning to you Jo.

wvgal_dana said...

Wow neat a blackbird just flew over the NE nest. neat

wvgal_dana said...

Hi Carol how's it going ???

wvgal_dana said...

Blackbird in NE eagle nest.

wvgal_dana said...

Just flew out.

wvgal_dana said...

Back again Blackbird NE nest

wvgal_dana said...

They pulled the camera back some from the Florida nest. Should be able if it stays that way. To see if other eagle comes in with food.

MITS said...

Jo, Tai takes after his Dad, Tian loves to eat lying on his back.

MITS said...

The sound quality up in Maine is sooo much better..I hear the eagles now.........boy are they squawking, maybe they will come in for a landing.

Mema Jo said...

I hate to do it (sooooo cold) but I must go out for a few hours.

Yep! I will bundle up!

BBL

wvgal_dana said...

Mits when you went out the other day. Did you see any eagles up your way??

MITS said...

No, Dana, no eagles in Bethesda.

MITS said...

EAGLE AT KENT......

MITS said...

ONE IN NEST AND ONE ON BRANCH..

MITS said...

They are just beautiful............

MITS said...

Looks like Mom chowing down at KENT, REMINDS ME OF YOU KNOW WHO...

MITS said...

BOTH ON THE BRANCH AT KENT....

MITS said...

Mom just took off.

MITS said...

ALL GONE AT KENT.

MITS said...

EAGLE AT TWO HARBORS.

MITS said...

Just heard the eagles at Maine again.

wvgal_dana said...

Ok no new meds here lol Mits I do know you don't have eagles where you live. Although Suzanne did see some close by.

It should be Glo I'm asking she mentioned a drive. I was wondering did she see any eagles. Have to wait till she comes in to ask. Unless I have a senior moment and don't remember. lol

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Question for the afternoon - is that Lun Lun's poo or Buta Buta's?

wvgal_dana said...

Remember the game "made you look". Well I was eating my lunch at the computer. Sharon said that of course I'm a kid and had to go look. GASLY YUCK I'M EATING HERE.....

wvgal_dana said...

The pic I had up wasn't all the way up so I didn't have that in my pic.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Dana, that made me laugh so hard I am crying!! Thank you so much. I really needed that!

MITS said...

Looks like Luns' poo. Butas', I don't think would be that big yet, because she does not eat bamboo. And their poop comes out all bamboo in a neat little package, because they do not digest it. :):):Probably more than you wanted to know, Sharon.

paula eagleholic said...

So sorry I read this whilst I was eating lunch!!!

MITS said...

Been watching FLA for last 20 mins, and, have not seen an eagle.

MITS said...

She either flew back into FLA. nest or was hiding again...just e-mailed Lynda.

paula eagleholic said...

I see her on the eggs now. Must've come back

paula eagleholic said...

What is today, #55 or so for FL eagles.

glo said...

OK I found a $60 pair of boots at Kohl's today for $8. They had been marked down 50% and now on clearance for another 70% off...works for me.

Mits I did go looking for eagles on Monday...saw 6 or so, but fairly far away. I di dmake a short video of my standing on ice that should be a sidewalk, with huge truck traffic going by as I tried to film them for everyone. I didn't stay there long at all but was hoping they would dive down after a fish for me. Sat there though fat and happy...guess I had missed breakfast. Well I am going to listen to Maine and watch Kent and work on the newsletter for a while. have a good afternoon.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Buta is climbing. She just keeps falling back and then going back at it again. I love that little girl!

MITS said...

Yes, OUR QUEEN OF NUMBERS, PAULA, YOU ARE CORRECT.

MITS said...

JUST HEARD BACK FROM LYNDA, YES, THEY KEEP COMING BACK TO THE NEST, BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS, THAT THEY COPULATED YESTERDAY

MITS said...

EAGLE WAS JUST IN MAINE , BUT TOOK OFF JUST AS I GOT ON...

MITS said...

EAGLE JUST FLEW BACK INTO MAINE WITH SOMETHING IN ITS TALONS......

MITS said...

AH, SOME NESTING MATERIAL.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Little Buta was just climbing, fell pretty hard on her back, then she went over and laid down on her soft stuff. Bless her little heart!

MITS said...

other eagle is near-by calling to its mate at maine.

MITS said...

Hooked on Buta, huh, Sharon:):):).Its not hard to get hooked on those panda bears.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Now she is trying to climb up feet first and standing on her head!

MITS said...

She just took off again at Maine, screeching loudly...

MITS said...

Going to start calling you panda-eyed sharon....

MITS said...

Eagle calling at MAINE.

Mema Jo said...

Look at that LunLun dragging ButaButa around by her foot. It probably was a fun ride!!

MITS said...

sure good use a new thread:):):).

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Buta looks so little walking around that big den. This has been a wonderful panda-watching day. She is really working hard on her climbing skills!

Mema Jo said...

ButaButa is exploring in the big room - wonder if there are any visitors today. Don't see LunLun right now but I am sure she is close by.

Mema Jo said...

She does look tiny out there, Sharon

MITS said...

Off to do some chores...BBL.

Mema Jo said...

Here she goes - had enought of the big room - going to be fun watching her go back in

Mema Jo said...

All gone - she sure didn't have a problem with that step....

MITS said...

Bamboo room, its like reading, where's Waldo...where's Buta???

Mema Jo said...

Well be darn if I can see ButaButa....

MITS said...

Buta is to the right of Lun, if you are looking at cam, think she is sleeping.

Mema Jo said...

Well there she is looks to be sound asleep in the far back..

MITS said...

BOTH EAGLES JUST CAME INTO MAINE NEST...

MITS said...

Lots of hugging going on in MAINE.

MITS said...

Both eagles were in MAINE, but 1 just flew off after it heard another eagle, at least it sounded like another eagle in the distance.

MITS said...

Other eagle just flew off.

Mema Jo said...

2 minutes is short - but it is long enough to not see an eagle fly off the nest
It really looked bleak in ME
Weather is probably going to get nasty

Mema Jo said...

Little Prince found his favorite
ledge for sleeping. He still fits if he curls up.

Mema Jo said...

Both eagles at NE

MITS said...

Jo, that's the infrared-light kicking in...at MAINE...makes things look bleak.

wvgal_dana said...

1 eagle in NE

So Happy To Have Made You (smile) Sharon and others lol

Mema Jo said...

Both eagles gone from NE
MT Nest

wvgal_dana said...

MT in NE

MITS said...

EAGLE AT BW OSPREY...

wvgal_dana said...

That is so funny Mits that she writes you back. Even last month she never wrote me back. Happy though she does someone so we know what is what in Florida nest.

Mema Jo said...

I forgot about that, Mits.
So it's really not bleak looking.

wvgal_dana said...

Did our young male eagle bring any food into the nest to Lady BW today?? I was napping..was not feeling up to par.

MITS said...

RE: my post earlier, Lynda has undated the FLA site about yesterdays'copulation taking place......
