Friday



We had an early briefing with our new Deputy Director and we had the TV in the conference room on the live feed. The eagle pair showed up 10 minutes into the briefing and stayed the whole time, distracting all of us for the remainder of the meeting.

New thread.

Another site that we have watch is from the DC zoo. The Panda Bears. last year we watched the eagles and the panda everyday. I was just reading that the female panda is getting very close for breading again. So that will be another thing that we here will watch.

paula eagleholic said...

Lib is gone. That was Belle in the front of the nest, and Lib at the back.

normabyrd said...

TAWNYA----I check little TAI out first every a.m.----Did you know MITS is a volunteer at the DC ZOO & she gets to see him "UP CLOSE"---Isn't that GREAT!!---Also the ATLANTA ZOO has a new female PANDA----which SHARON calls BUTA BUTA---SO we all do----SHE IS A REAL ATLANTA BEAUTY----

paula eagleholic said...

BW eaglets got those big ol' feets stretched out :)

One legged faker on the Osprey nest! Makes me think it is not the pair from last year....I'd have to check pics, but I don't remember the female doing that very much last year.

carolinabeachmom said...

Good morning all! It is a teacher workday, so I have taken it off. Thank you Paula and others for all the new pics of Liberty and Belle returning to their nest; fixing it up. I was sooooo excited to think that maybe we might see another egg or eggs soon. I just wish now that they would let us see the live cam. Oh well, I guess I had better be happy when the one cam is working. I am working out in the yard today, but will be sure to check in from time to time to get the latest.

normabyrd said...

DR. MITS----Have you noticed ME EAGLE seems to have the same "unknown thing" with her----Isn't it her feathers??

MITS said...

I have noticed that Norma, and I wondering if that might be Dad compensating for his hurt talon...same side.

normabyrd said...

Mauley said...

Liberty and Belle were sending Steve and all of us the following message this am: The year's at the spring, the day's at the morn, Suzanne's at seven, the hill-side's dew-pearled, the eagle's on the wing, the ewiees's on the thorn, God's in His Heaven - all's right with the world. May Robert Browning forgive me for altering Pippa Passes for the Eaglemomsters. donna

floralgirl said...

Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm ready to get a job at NCTC. Maybe they need someone to monitor the live feed nonstop, I'm available. Or if they need someone to sit outside and stare at the nest all day, I can do that too.LOL probably not...oh well, back outside, what a beautiful day:)

Anne-Marie said...

Good Morning all. Thank you so much for all of your comments. Each morning when I log on the nest is empty. I'd never know they had been there is it wasnt for all of you. Today is pay day and I have to hand out checks. Its an all day thing so I wont be back very often.Have a beautiful day all.

Notice on the Norfolk Site I just saw:

Due to equipment upgrades at the Eagle Cam site, the image will be offline starting 2pm Friday and should be available again Saturday morning.

MITS said...

My VA cam is still working, but the JRB falcon cams are not up.

paula eagleholic said...

Hmmm, that's weird! I had it up and then couldn't see it anymore, then saw the notice!

MITS said...

VA is down now, but I was watching the chicks, when I posted last.

paula eagleholic said...

Osprey cam AT BW all out of alignment!!

paula eagleholic said...

Probably those darn Osprey getting frisky again ;)

MITS said...

The HANCOCK-SYDNEY nest eagle is enjoying what looks like a seagull for a snack...love that nest.

paula eagleholic said...

Howdy all. MT nest. My nest will be full shortly, grandson coming over for the evening.

paula eagleholic said...

They love those seagulls at Sidney!

paula eagleholic said...

Oscar better stay away!

Mema Jo said...

753pm and no visitors yet this evening.

Mema Jo said...

Going to sign off for the evening....
Talk with you all in the morning...
Good Night...

MITS said...

Hello...back from an outing to the zoo....little get together at the Great Ape House:) Did our eagles make an evening visit?

Jill said...

Hey Mits. Best I can tell there was no visit or at least nobody saw it. I have been on and off since 7 and haven't seen anything. It's Friday, maybe Belle and Liberty had a date. LOL

MITS said...

You could be right, Jill:):):)

Jill said...

We can only hope. I guess we will know the results of a date in the next week. Or sooner. Maybe they went on one of those baby making cruises I have been seeing on tv. LOL

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good evening everyone. Been out all evening. Mattie won 1st place in the talent show at school. Love that kid. She sang a beautiful song! Voice of an angel for sure but she does show her little horns sometimes. :):):)

paula eagleholic said...

My little angel is all tuckered out and snoozing on the couch...we took the "dogums" for 2 long walks!

MITS said...

Great news for Mattie, Sharon:):). Paula, how many times did you watch the meercats that you grandson likes??? Doesn't he call them "dogums" also? GOODNIGHT EVERYONE!

paula eagleholic said...

Well, Mits, we actually missed the "meerkat dogums" tonight because we were walking the "real dogums" while the show was on!

See ya'll in the morning!!

sandyshaw said...

Hello, everyone. We just returned from City Hospital, where Mother is in the ICU in heart failure. She is in stable condition, and getting good care. Please continue to keep us in your prayers.

Mauley, I sent you a web link on the yahoo e-mail system. Hope you'll enjoy it. It's a Chaucer thing, and I'll be glad to share it with anyone who's interested.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I have been watching the nest since about 8:10 and haven't seen anybody. They were probably there earlier.

Sandyshaw, I will be praying for your mother and your family.
