GOOD MORNING STEVE--
Thank you for the new thread.
Good Morning Megan
I was just trying to read the Momsters email and was wondering why I can never view the Panda Cam Postcards that some of the Members send in the column. Can you see them?
Hello Wanda:) HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you Delphia, our very own Bird Girl Hope things are going better for you and you have a wonderful day!!!
Thanks for the new thread, Steven. Finally got to see both of them in the nest this morning! What a wonderful sight!
Thanks for the heads up, Megan, and good morning.
Not sure Wanda, a lot of times I can't see things you guys can view, I live in a dial up world:( I already have 6 screens open and if I open another to check I'll probably crash the computer.
Wanda, sometimes the pics don't show up for me either, I get a little red x. But if you scroll all the way to the bottom, the pic may be there. I couldn't see some pics like that either, and sometimes they show up, other times they don't.
SUZ--Can you view the Panda Cam postcards sent in the Momsters email? I have pushed every thing that can be pushed and clicked, but no postcard view.
Now I am speaking of the Momsters email that was just sent out a short while ago.
GOOD MORNING BIRD GIRL--Hope you are with us this morning and are feeling well for this special day.
I don't sing very well, but here goes:
Happpppyyyyy Birthdaaaayyyyy Toooo
Youuuuuuu.
Have the best ever day!!!
Wanda, that's what I was talking about. I can't view them from the original sender, go figure. But if somebody responds to the email, SOMETIMES, the pic is at the very bottom. I mean very bottom, scroll down as far as you can. That's the only way I can view the postcards of Squiggles. I did get Crissy's original pic, but it was at the bottom. Don't know why that is, and it drives me nuts.
One eagle left at BW. Bai and Squiggles still sound asleep, lucky girls!
Bai waking up, dragging bamboo and covering Squiggles. That is so cute! Then she'll pick Squiggles up and nurse!
Yup, there she goes, has Squiggles and all the new bamboo down by her foot. Snack time...
GOOD FRIDAY MORNING TO ALL OF YOU!. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DELPHIA.
Good morning, Mits! yeahhhhh, we made it to Friday. Both kids were in the nest this morning, what a joy to see!
It is sooooo nice to see them again, Suzanne, someone said last night, can't remember who, but you can really see the size difference between them.
SSSSSHHHHAAARRRROOOONNN!!!!!!!! Good to read you this a.m.!!!!
Mei and Tian are having an early a.m. playtime...
TGIF
Thank you Steven
Morning Suzanne, Megan, Wanda, Sharon, Mits, Candy... chilly morning but tolerable unlike the past few days. Foggy in spots taking T to school.
Missed the nest visit this morning yet again.
Happy Birthday Birdgirl :)
Good Morning all. Off to coffee and dog treats. Happy Birthday Bird Girl
So happy to read that Lib and Belle have already made a visit. I think they wanted to check in with you Suzanne
GOOD MORNIN' EAGLE BUDDIES!!!!!---WHEN I SAID GOOD MORNING' TO BELLE & LIBERTY TODAY---THEY SAID TO ME!!-------
GOOOOOOOOO EEEEEEEEEEEEEERS!!!!!
THESE EAGLES ARE LOYAL TO THEIR STATE!!!!
SAT. ESPN--12:00----LOVE THESE EAGLES!!!!!
Morning, Robyn and Glo! Yes, it was so nice to see them this morning! I was excited! And I saw a Great Blue Heron in BW very early this morning, and that was exciting. It's a good day!
Hello Suzanne, Mits, Robyn, Norma and Glo:) Hey Norma, when do we leave for Vegas?
HEY THERE, MEGAN:).
bEAUTIFUL SUNRISE AT sENENCA rOCKS.
Good Friday Morning To All of You EAGLE LOVERS
Suzanne - Sounds like you at last have had a great viewing morning!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
DEAR DELPHIA AKA BIRD GIRL
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
Good morning, Norma! Norma, do you know what an addiction is???? In your case, your ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSS. Did I say that right?
Morning, Jo. YES! I finally got to see our Liberty and Belle in the nest this morning! I was thrilled!!! So so happy they made an appearance. We have a decent cam pic, now it would be nice if they popped in again, but probably not until tonight. They don't visit during the day. And never mind about the decent pic...it's going south again.
EAGLE IN BW!!!
Suzanne, you sound like a Pirate...eeerrr:).
Morning Mits and Jo
Eagle at BW
Bai is sitting up, and was looking up at cam. Squiggles still in all that hey/bamboo sleeping, but think mom's gonna wake her.
Uh oh, Mits, is that good or bad? I was trying to do the Eeeeeeeers thing Norma does so well. I got it right here, went back and looked at hers!
What is Bai doing? She reaches down and wakes Squiggles, but Bai is sitting there wathing her. Oh ok, as I type that, she picked the little one up to nurse.
Oh my, that is watching her, not whatever I typed...
The Roll the Squiggles game is now in progress...
Some great morning pics sent to me from Suzanne and Sharon... Isn't is GREAT to have an important reason to get out of bed and turn on the computer? Gets you up & going for the day - Talking about us of the non-working retired generation!
MOrning all. So they showed up this morning! How wonderful!
Don't forget the PJ CLUB:)!
roll, roll, roll, your panda gently cross the floor:).
Sometimes I have troubles with the pictures like Suz described...they show up at the far bottom of the email. Also, if you right click on the small red x, and click on show picture, sometimes that works. The other thing to do is to go ahead and save or open the picture, and then maybe you can see it.
LOL!!! Mits, too funny! Look at her, she just grabs Squiggles and pulls or pushes her whereever she wants her to go. Hilarious. One of these days, Squiggles is gonna really get mobile, then Bai won't be able to roll her anymore.
Beautiful regal eagle still in BW.
Morning, Jo! Yup, beautiful morning today!
Morning, Paula. Thanks, never tried to save the pic. The open pic doesn't work for me.
HEY CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Hear you're going to California again next season! Awesome!
Beautiful eagle at BW.
Especially the PJ Club! That says it all! Thanx Mits!
Yes, the postcards' pics are a hit & miss with my emails!
Yup, Suz, it's "California Here I Come"
HAPPY BIIIIRTHDAY TO YOOOUUUUU!!
HAPPY BIIIIRTHDAY TO YOOOUUUUU!!
HAPPY BIIIIIIIIRTHDAY DEAR BIRD GIRL!!
HAPPY BIIIIIRTHDAY TO YOOOUUUUU!!
Delphia, I hope you have a wonderful day and things look up for you in the coming year!
GOOD MORNING BIRD GIRL!!! WISHING YOU A HAPPY---HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! TODAY!!!---MAY YOU HAVE A "GREAT" YEAR!!!!
It is a GLORIOUS day here in WV--temp. 59°---expecting warmer weather!!----MEGAN have you started your "PUMPKIN TOURS"?--I still have pics of Grand Kids in a 'pumpkin patch' when they lived in Shepherdstown!!!---
I love watching SQUIGGLES too & I have noticed that I am getting more "blank" pics lately than in the beginning----But isn't she just too--too much!!!---I agree SUZANNE---she has a mind of her own & when she gets stronger---WOW!!----CHRISSY'S pic was one of the best!!!
77° here in Bethesda already.
REALLY ENJOY the BW EAGLES!!!---One is there now & seems to move around the stand!!
Jo, panda eating bamboo in Memphis:).
MITS----Does that mean you are "HOTTER" than I am!!!---Only 59° here!!----ho!
Hey Jo:) Can you send me Jill's email? I have had 2 employees change their mind in the past 2 days about working, and I need to see if she wants to help any days.
Sea Otters: Yesterday afternoon I was able to spot all 6 Otter Brothers playing around at the DC zoo cam!
Sea Otters DE Zoo
They are fast little critters
Then I went to the Monterey Bay site
and watched their otters!
Sea Otters Monterey Bay Aquarium
You know me, I like little critters like burrowing owls and such!
Bookmark the sights
Hi Paula:) Norma, we'll start the first week of October. Now I am scrambling to find more help.
Coming at you Megan.......
One PANDA in DC is "sunning his tummy"----One is taking a nap--with face close to camera!!!---Both are ADORABLE!!!----Can't tell them apart in these pics!!---
Jo, the girls were out this a.m.
We need to name the regular visitor at BW as Mr Patience
Norma, pandas are on the move at NZ
Tai is on cam #2, and Mei and Tian are on 1, and snarling.
Mits - are there 3 girls?
When all 6 boys get out they are all over each other! Yesterday they had a little boy watching them & it was delightful!
closeup of Mei on 1
only 2 girls, Jo
Just want you all to know that OUR
nest is JUST BEAUTIFUL!
I like the view we have now. The cam is picking up a great image for us.
Going to place am photos in album..
BBL
Ditto, that sentiment, Jo.
looks like they are getting ready for playtime with otters at Montery
New pics of SD baby on their site...her eyes are starting to open.
GOOD MORNING, EVERYBODY... TGIF!!
ELEPHANTS ARE SLURPING IN PETE'S POND.
JIM
Mits, what is Bai doing? She kinda pokes Squiggles, then sits and watches her. Is she trying to get Squiggles to start crawling around?
Morning, Jim!!
Door just opened, did you see the light? Think Bai's gonna go check it out. Uh oh, covering Squigs up first!
Morning, Jim!
Looks like Squiggles is starting to walk...
All the baby elephants are getting a bath too.
Jim
She is probably telling her to be quiet....she will not walk for a while yet.
Great photos. Thanks Suz and Sharon and Jo.
Suzanne Send me an email sometime and tell me about
Grafenwoehr, Germany. Orders are now definite for Patrick.
I hope everyone is well. I'm up early to go to the Dr.'s, but I'm thinking I should start getting up earlier again. I think I probably get more done in the morning, and it's sunnier and funner to kick back in the afternoon anyway.
Have a great day.
Jim
The photos of Squiggles that Paula mentioned are adorable! She sure is growing.... lol They are under the news tab on her panda cam page
Talk to you later, Jim!
It's still 57 degs. this morning and overcast... 60% chance of RAIN! today. Thanks for the rain dancing, everybody.
Jim
Already time for the Fruitcycles for Mei and Tian!
And YOU KNOW WHO has his very own and doesn't need to share!
Good morning, Norma, Mits, Mema Jo, Paula, and our early reporter, Suzanne.
Good morning to everybody else likely to sign on to the blog this morning.
Jim
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR DELPHIA,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.
AND MANY, MANY, MANY, MANY MORE!!!!
Graf, huh, Jo? One thing to say, that is a training area for the Army, and he should be VERY GLAD HE IS PERMANENT PARTY!!!!!! And not a trainee. Say THANK YOU, GOD! It's not a bad area, but they get LOTS more snow than where I was! That's why the trainees don't like it so much. Too much snow. It is a beautiful area, though. A tad north and way east of where I was, on the other side of Nurnberg, but close to the Czech border! Just think of all the crystal he can buy in Prague!
Nuff for here, I'll send ya an email.
Morning, Jim. I hope your Dr's appt is just sort of a follow up or something, but nothing serious I hope.
Jo, like the name Mr Patience for the BW eagle. He sure is that, he sits there for hours! But that is so nice to see!
Squiggles is still alone, and as dark as it is, you can almost see her about 12 o'clock. Have to look for the contrasting black, or you'd miss her.
barking Mei and Tian.
I can hear one of my volunteer buddies on duty.
oh, Lord the chase is on with the happy couple.
Jo, the link you posted here brings me to a boston map
Morning dear Friends, and a Happy Birthday for our Very Own Bird Girl. blessings, donna
The "LITTLE PRINCE" thinks he is in "HEAVEN" right now!!!---WHAT COULD BE BETTER!!!---Just lying back & ENJOYING his FRUIT-ICE!!!!--
LOL, me too, Robyn. Are we planning a trip to Boston, Jo?
That's odd, Robyn, so does mine.
soccor at the panda house.
EAGLE still at BW-----& DOWN IN GEORGIA----LUN LUN & BUTA BUTA are "SAWING LOGS" on the LOGS!!!---ho!
Big Eagle at BW
Moring, Donna!
Jo, are you trying to tell us all something by sending a Boston link?
I had the same thing JO!!----BUT I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING!!!---ho!----That's why I love you JO!!!
Jo's just trying to see who is actually paying attention!
It's working...
Maybe when we get back from Vegas we're heading to Boston.
HEY JIM!!!---Wishing you a GOOD report from Dr.-----I heard that it never rains in Southern CA---(ho) SO what's with this RAIN DANCE---Did you invite MEGAN to dance!!!--She brought us RAIN!!!
Sounds like fun...
YOU GUESSED IT MEGAN!!!----JO got our attention!!!!
HAHAHA - I see what link you are talking about...I went in the regular way and checked out the pics...
I just came back on -- been on the phone with grndughtr who will be going to Germany.
Now who is in Boston? lol
I am looking for the link - Did you get the photos? the sea otters?
I'll find it.... Tricky, aren't I
Funny, Boston is my birthplace!
I would like to go to Salem and Cape Cod :)
Megan, guess you didn't see my post the other day asking if you needed help? email me @jztaxi@aol.com. Also do you have mums? If so what color?
SOMEBODY MAKE SURE MEGAN SEES THIS. I have to go back to work.
Well, I do love Boston and haven't been there since I was sbout 12. I'm glad Jim's getting the rain, now we need it back... we are still 6-7 inches down for the year.
Jill sending you a message:)
Fingers crossed all, Tori gets tested for Honors Math next week she is apprehensive as it may change her class schedule but I can't see her acing a class she already took last year when she needs to be callenged.
Jo I thought it was me so I opened it twice. I had friends who would fly to Boston to get bagels then return home with them. I still prefer NY bagels :)
SEE WHERE THIS GETS YOU
The SD site looks like a white spot light----Can't see anything else!!!
Ok, took a while and didn't really write a book, but Jo, you have mail.
CURSES HELEN!!---I missed the fighting---but check out "LITTLE PRINCE"----He is so enjoying that stream of water---Attempting to make the water flow faster!!!---LITTLE IMP!!!
SUZANNE---Do you still watch the DIVERS?----or what is available now???
that works, Jo.
Jo, that link got us to the login page of Yahoo groups.
Norma, I have it up, but don't watch it steadily, just glance occassionally.
Actually working, and watching BW and Squiggles mostly. Have other cams open but minimized.
Norms, are you cursing again?:):):)
Bai's den door is open, and she's watching something out there.
Where is squiggles?
Bai has her in her left arm, she's holding her close, so I'm guessing a keeper is out there cleaning up. She's really watching!
There, Squiggles just moved. If you look at Bai's left shoulder, there is a "bump" That bump moves every once in a while.
Thanks Suzanne. Link are great also!
Mits - you have mail.
GO TORI
You sure are making your Momma Proud!
ATTENTION---Just talked with DNR person & he says he doubts an EAGLE or HAWK will pick up a cat or dog--(because they will put up a fight)---But he said the GOLDEN EAGLE probably would & at night HORNED OWLS are dangerous!!!
Moon must be shinning down under because it's 1am and you get a pretty clear view of Frieda.
Good info Norma. Hopefully all the outside cats are fighters!!!
You're welcome, Jo. If he has any questions, let me know. He will love that area!
Robyn, that's great news about Tori! I'm sure she'll do quite well. You should be so proud!!! But of course, you are!
We have a hawk that comes around every once in a while, but he can't get the birds at my house, cause his wing span is too big to get between the house and where the feeders are. And I don't think I've ever seen the outdoor kitty around when he is. He comes in and stands and looks around on my fence, then flys off into a tree next door. Well, in winter. He would never get in that tree now with all the leaves, he can't land. They do have large wing spans, and they have to fit.
Haven't seen the guy for quite a while, though, but my neighbor saw him about a month ago. Evidentally he makes the rounds in the neighborhood!
GARY (DNR) Says there are small animals like coyote, etc. might attack at nite----
OOh, keep your pets inside, ladies, the boogeyman might get em..... We have coyotes around our area. Never seen one myself. I always keep our little dog in sight. I know the hawks won't pick up cats, I can't even get them to take these darn squirrels.(sorry squirrel fans)
Gonna hit the road early. Get ahead of all the accidents that seem to happen on Fridays. Maybe I'll get home in time to take a nap before Meerkat Manor, and I won't fall asleep tonight. Yeah, right. Sure glad it's on on Saturdays too!
Take lots of pics of our babies this weekend. We've got a nice start on the 2007 eagle cam season in Momsters!
Bai fell asleep, but just woke up and is looking out the door again. Oh, there she goes, keeper must have left. Yup, Squiggles all alone. Give her a sec, she'll be bringing in more bedding!
All have a great weekend. Blog at ya Monday.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
MITS---I always call on you to cuss---I don't know how!!!!---But I so LOVE to watch those two!!!---HE usually runs & she chases!!!---THEY DON'T SET A GOOD EXAMPLE FOR THE "LITTLE PRINCE"------ho!---HE IS SO "SWEET"----
I seem to be having trouble getting the NCTC cam back up.
SAFE JOURNEY HOME SUZANNE!!!---GIVE MY BEST TO THE LITTLE "FUR BALLS"-------ENJOY WEEKEND!!
HELEN----I had that trouble when I was attempting to get back on after I talked with DNR!!!---KEPT REFUSING ME ENTRANCE!!!----Thought you folks had VOTED me off the BLOG!!!!!----(don't ever do that)
never in a million years, Norma.
MITS WHAT HAPPEN ?
ME TOO
I sure hope they are just doing some adjustments or maybe putting the fuel cell in..............
Steve - what are you doing?
MAYBE THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SUZANNE LEAVES.....LOL
I have also had that problem. The only way I could get in here was through my NCTC bookmark.
That's what I was thinking..
Pic is good for me...MT nest
I can open the NCTC cam, MT nest.
Norma You are the Blog
Did you see the comment that hubby & son were in Romney yesterday. Maybe in 2 weeks I will also come up..
BTW, it's TGIF as I am OFF tomorrow :):)
ok its back...
Don't try to refresh the cam.
That is what I did just before I lost it. It has come back on but it is
not clear - lots of lines.
Now it is clear and beautiful...
Hey all! I stumbled across a nature photographer with some nice eagle shots if anyone is interested - E.J. Peiker. All his stuff is good but here's a link to his bald eagle shots:
E.J. Peiker
If you have time check out some of his other stuff too (Including other types of eagles).
How did you get a Saturday off?
That will be your long weekend!
mine came back on but had the time of 40 minutes ago, refreshed cam back with lines, now it is ok.
BBL....
Good morning all. Just a quick note to tell you that squiggles is now a bona fide movie star. Just saw her on Fox news. She is beautiful and so roly poly.
Bob That is quite a 'find'.
Very impressive and interesting bio.
Those photos are breathtaking--sure had good subjects to capture.
Wow! Those are some great eagle pictures he took. Thanks for sharing the link, Bob.
Time for me to leave the PJ Club room. BBL
OMG, Bob, those eagle photos are beautiful! Some of the best I have ever seen.
I couldn't get shots of an eagle that close unless it was stuffed. He has a great feel for capturing the light on his subjects in a marvelous way.
I bookedmarked the eagle pics, how beautiful!
I have no problem getting into the NCTC site but at times it will go black but next reset it comes back.
errrr bookmarked
Afternoon My Eagle Friends
Bob used the link and went in to see pictures. Thank you for sharing the guys work. Great pics.
Jo I didn't go back in other pages comments to see. How did Dr's appt turn out?
Paula the animation reminds me of actually the "live feed" great work ty.
Happy Birthday sweet Delphia Happy Birthday to youuuuuuuuuu
Eewwiiieee at BW
It has been interesting to read the various replies about whether a hawk would take a kitten. Some say "yes" and some say "no". Maybe it depends on the type of hawk, the availability of food, or how hungry it is. If it happens, maybe it is something that has not been observed and communicated very often. I'm sure that there is a lot that we do not yet know about nature. Today's communication technology, including webcams, is sure to greatly increase our knowledge and understanding of this world we live in and share with other creatures! Aren't we lucky to live now and have access to these wonders!
Hi CAROL---
DANA--What did you think of Kid Nation Wed. night?
Carol, are you coming on the 20th?
Eagle at BW
THE WWF (WORLD WILDLIFE FUND) HAS ANNOUNCED THE WINNER OF THE CONTEST FOR THE WORLD'S "CUTEST ANIMAL" IS THE PANDA!!!!!
"Mr Eagle" at BW
Wanda, Hi. I'm not 100% sure yet whether I'll be able to be there on the 20th. I'm going to be away the 2 weekends before that one. If I do come, I may not stay for dinner. I'll let everyone know the week before the 20th.
Think Mr eagle has lunch...which is where I'm headed...
CAROL---I'm glad you read GARY'S remarks about the HAWK or EAGLE carrying off a dog or cat----He retired this year from DNR---You are certainly correct about so much info available to us now!---I marvel when I happen to see one of the Grand Kid's text books----WOW!!
Looking forward to seeing you 10/20!!!!!
BOB!!!---Those EAGLE photographs are UNBELIEVABLE!!!!----BEST I have ever seen!!!!---I also glanced through his other photos---How could ONE choose???---I appreciate your sharing them with us!!!---
Hi Carol Remember we'll get together for LUNCH in the NCTC cafe!
RIGHT ON!!HURRAY FOR THE PANDA
Panda Nap Time ..........
Check out Frieda.......still darkness
However, looks as though her head is down and maybe checking under her.
Off to the left of her wing
can you see any white fluff?
Norma - I love finding gems like that. If you look at his scenic shots he lists over 20 states and 19 countries in his index but none from WV, VA or MD. Maybe we should invite hime to the NCTC Open House! LOL
I just quickly checked out Peiker's home site. He is some talented photographer. I could not believe all the photos he has on that site. The photos of some of the National Parks and of Arizona and Utah are breath-taking. I'm going to have to spend some serious time looking at his site. Thank you, Bob, for the link.
OK, I wasn't gonna look, was gonna save it for later....Exquisite!
Did you see the eagle swallowing the whole fish?
I didn't know eagles would swallow a whole fish like that. That surprised me.
Bob, I was watching Limuw on the Santa Cruz nest this year, and he did that! Then he chucked it back up! It was too funny!
Now that I think of it, I think K26 swallowed one whole too!
From Lisa if anyone's interested:
Tonight BILL MOYERS JOURNAL (PBS) looks at the life and legacy of Rachel Carson. Rachel Carson and her most famous book, SILENT SPRING, are often credited with inspiring the modern global environmental movement.
The program will feature writer/performer Kaiulani Lee and her 15-year journey to spread Rachel Carson's ecological message to the world.
Ahhhh - eagles swallowing whole fish - technology showing us things about nature we didn't know before. I remember when we watched our 3 eaglets that I was totally amazed to see that eagles (and other birds?) sleep on their side. I loved to see them laying on one side, with their upper wing and leg stretched out. Remember when we were all amazed to see that eagles catch and eat turtles?
Just a quick hello again, then off to get Tori at the bus.
Since the falcon incubates her eggs approx. 36 days they should be hatching around the 25th of Sept. Just a few more days. Been curious so I looked up some of their info about F&F. I may have over or undercounted my digits (forgot to count my toes) lol
Getting light in Brisbane...Jo, thought I saw white fuzz earlir, but think it was just her feathers.
that's earlier.......
So I guess 4 more days before hatchings....Bob, great site, thanks...
My guess would be Monday for F & F
Frieda is wide awake and in color
Frieda looks stunning today. I would have to say the motherhood agrees with her.
Awwww, baby eewwiiee at BW
WAX
:):)
