Jim

MITS said...

Morning ,Jim, you are up early.

movin said...

Good morning, Mits, Suzanne, Candy, Wanda....

There's an eagle at BW.

Jim

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING STEVE, JIM AND MITS--
We saw Lib (or Belle) for a moment this morning at 6:45.

Costume Lady said...

I am really having withdrawl symptoms from not seeing Squiggles. I havn't seen her for several days.

glo said...

Good mornign everyone. Off for coffee and dog treats. So glad Lib and Belle are checking in :).

Got a sinus headache and a half here and wanted to take Dex to the Marina this morning to practice taking pictures of seagulls, since I don't expect any eagles to be in sight anyway for another 6 weeks or so. mTBR on that I guess. Enjoy your day. SO nice of the kids to drop by even for a minute, must have gottent he word we were gettign a little ......well you go ahead and fill it in .

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING GLO--
Did you take a pic. of the sparrow and how did it turn out?

movin said...

Just gave Robyn and Suzanne another "heads up" as to the new thread.

2 eagles at BW now.

Jim

Suzanne said...

Thanks for the new thread, Steven, and thanks for the heads up Mits and Jim, and good morning to all of you!
Morning, Glo, how's the picture taking coming along?
Thanks for the heads up about the eagles in BW, Jim. I brought the site up this morning, and it was kaput again, so just closed it. But it's open now!! Watching those beautiful eagles. Sure can see a size difference.

Robyn said...

Morning Mits, Glo. Thanks for the heads up Jim and Mits, just studying for mid-terms pulled my B to an A this week and want to keep a hold of it for 4 more weeks till next semester. I am getting so sick of school *blah*. less then 2 yrs left hopefully I can finish in 1 year.

MITS said...

ROBYN......you go girl!!!!!Saying a prayer for Tori today.

Suzanne said...

Way to go, Robyn! It's hard work, but worth it in the end.
yeah, Wanda, what's up with the SD cam? I'm thinking Squiggles is now Scooter, and they can't keep track of her....or mom, for that matter. Did you see them yesterday? Bai was out throwing that bamboo around, and every once in a while, she'd go get Squiggles and carry her around for a while, then put her back, get her again, then nurse. Too funny.
Glo, hope your headache goes away!

Suzanne said...

And poof, Mrs Eagle just left.

Robyn said...

Suz I saw squigs last night before I went to bed about midnight, she was all alone in the middle of the room sometimes moving other times still. She is getting BIG

MITS said...

I can hear the eagles up in Maine, but don't see them:(

Robyn said...

Thank you Mits, the only reason tori is edgy is if she passes she may have to change some of her class schedule and she likes her clsses as they are.

Suzanne said...

Ok, thanks, Robyn. She is getting to be a little round, isn't she? That's a good thing!
Jim, how come you're up so early? Can't sleep?

normabyrd said...

FULL HARVEST MOON TONIGHT.....NORMA, don't be far from the boiling water:).....the eagles up in MAINE are really vocal this a.m.

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning EagleLand
Hey there #1 Mits - hope your day at the Zoo goes well..Hot it will be!
Thanks Sharon for the early bird pic. Mits, you and Paula stayed up until that little eyass got into the world - You two were good coaches!

MITS said...

I should have stayed up longer, couldn't settle down til 1 a.m., now I can hear the geese going by up in MAINE

Robyn said...

Morning Jo. Norma the moon was a bright orange-red this morning at 6:15 took a pic with cellphone

Robyn said...

For some reason Mits the Maine live cam seems to be running on a 15 sec delay for me.

MITS said...

That's odd, Robyn, mine stays up for hours at a time.

Robyn said...

never had ths problem before and my player is up to date

Suzanne said...

Morning, early bird, Jo! Glad you got a pic from Sharon of the very short visit this morning. but oh so nice that they were there. Well, at least one of them, and I said Belle earlier, but have no clue which one it was.
Robyn, the moon was bright white when I came in, did it change color later? I loose it around 6ish, it goes behind an appt bldg behind my building. Bet taht was cool.
Mei Sheng is awake and eating bamboo, but I want to see Bai and Squiggles!

MITS said...

ROBYN, the one thing I have noticed at MAINE this year, more planes going over.

Robyn said...

I may need to attach my external speakers to get a better sound quality Mits I can hear it but not all that well

MITS said...

Don't know why mine is working, I hear cars starting up, dogs barking, people yelling.

Suzanne said...

Squiggles is on cam and alone!

Robyn said...

hmmm I heard some banging

Suzanne said...

She's getting big and fat! How cool is that! Little cutie pie.

Suzanne said...

Here comes mom...

Suzanne said...

LOL, mom woke her up! And she was sleeping so peacefully! Geez, woke her up and moved her, now mom is gone again. She's scooting...

MITS said...

Jo, the male otters are out at the NZ

MITS said...

Yes, Robyn I do hear constuction going on sometimes.

Suzanne said...

So where is Wanda? Squiggles is alone, and you can see half of her face!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

So, Glo, is Dex going to be practicing taking pictures of seagulls? :)

MITS said...

How adorable.............

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning everybody. Hope all is well with you!

MITS said...

Mei is sleeping and Tai is roaming.

MITS said...

HELLO, SHARON,

Suzanne said...

Mom's back...

MITS said...

EAGLE BACK AT BW

glo said...

LOL Sharon Well lets see I am sure it says somewhere in this book that this camera is simple enough for anyone to learn to use it so sure I will share with my Buddy Dexter..and let him take a few pictures if we go. As you know he is fairly good at he computer already. tech savy critter

Suzanne said...

Glo, how's he doing? Feeling better, I hope!
Thanks for the heads up, Mits! Beautiful eagle...

MITS said...

TAI SHAN is headed back inside.

Mema Jo said...

Missed the NZ otters so I went to Monterey Bay & watching those.
Watching eagle on osprey platform
LunLun & ButaButa sleeping outside
Inside treat time for one NZ panda-another one is outside sleeping
..& we have an MT nest
Camera zoomed in on Squiggles..

MITS said...

Jo, the female otters have names...they are Asha and Min, and the boys are called "the six-pack".

Mema Jo said...

I had read about the '6 pack' name.They are something else. Love the little gals names..

glo said...

yes Suzanne Dex is doing good. Daph is the one that was sick on me in August and off and on this month as well. She is on lots of steroids...that snot so good, but does seem to be feeling much better the last week to 10 days...now to get her off the steroids and not have the condition flare back up, whatever is cuasing it. I on the other hand am gonna lie down for a while and possibly head to the Marina later.

Hope you all get to see soem eagles today...including more of you know who

Mema Jo said...

Robyn-may have missed a comment BUT
are they your kittens on your Avatar?
You know - Tori's ornery kids?

Suzanne said...

Oh, sorry, Glo, got the puppies names mixed up. Anyway, glad Daphnie is doing better. I hope she continues to improve. It's no fun having a sick baby! Specially the 4-legged kind, they just don't understand why they don't feel good.
Sleep tight, Glo! There's an eagle in BW, in case you didn't see the comments.

paula eagleholic said...

Good Morning! Work is keeping me busy. Thanks for the heads up on BW. Found this note on there.

09/25/07:
Technical Note - Well, our charging problem seems to be back as we are having issues with the image again.

It might mean there's a problem with the controller or the solar panel. We'll try to work on it.

MITS said...

Jo, there is a panda on the cam at Memphis.

paula eagleholic said...

Heard we had another minute visit. Cool. Better than nothing! They are letting us know they are still around.....

Whew, pooped from all that coaching and crashing computer last night :)

MITS said...

Paula, you made an excellent, falcon mid-wife.

Mema Jo said...

Time for me to get moving around here this morning... IF I want to make it to Tony's this evening!
Won't see you, will I Suz?
One of these days!

Suzanne said...

Morning, Paula. Hear you did a good job last night!

Suzanne said...

Jo, have you tried your daily clicks today? They work, but what a pain it is waiting for them to come up! Been like this all day, I usually do mine first thing in the morning, and that didn't work today, so started again about a half hour ago. Still not done. Least I can do something else while waiting for the pages to load!
Squiggles hasn't moved, she must be tuckered out!
Poor Frieda is not resting well, those babies must be wiggling all around under her.

Robyn said...

Morning Paula.

Yes Jo those are Tori's brats, I have more pics on my blog.

Suzanne said...

Jo, just saw your comment. No, sorry, can't make Tony's tonight. That's way past my bedtime, but thanks for the offer! And yes, one of these days I'll join you!

Mema Jo said...

I did my daily clicks - took a little longer... The menu bar was different looking... I finally got them all in.

Mema Jo said...

Check out our eagle cam - mine seems to be jammed.... I hit refresh & may have done it myself......

paula eagleholic said...

Hey, Robyn & Mits, I checked out Bird Girl's pics on the third chick. Looks like she got the same ones I did, so they must have had problems getting the pics over the net...

Mema Jo said...

Forget about our cam - Must have been something I did - Up & running clear

paula eagleholic said...

Candy We will miss you at the Open House, but have a great time with your son. I would love to go for a hot air balloon ride! Enjoy the time with him.

paula eagleholic said...

Mits - You and Robyn did good too!

Suzanne said...

DIVERS!!

Suzanne said...

Mits, check out the Smokey's now. Beautiful, sun is up.

MITS said...

Thanks, Paula, OFF TO THE ZOO...TTUL

Suzanne said...

time for me to hit the road. All have a great eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly! Or watch the divers, they're still there.

paula eagleholic said...

Safe travels, Mits and Suz. Have fun at the zoo, Mits.

paula eagleholic said...

NillaWafer said...

Good afternoon looks like a big storm is on the way here... Awww those white lil fluff balls.. but i only see 2 ??

NillaWafer said...

NillaWafer said...

NillaWafer said...

paula eagleholic said...

Looks like a bone in the pebbles next to Frieda!

paula eagleholic said...

Heading home, catch ya'll later...

Mema Jo said...

Headed up the road to Greencastle for pizza CU Later tonight.....

NillaWafer said...

I saw that Paula.. It s raining sos hard here you cant see across the parking lot.. Oh my lightening just hit near by...

Jill said...

Nilla was that a storm or what? I was going around the mall at the worst point. From the backside,turn behind Walmart, you could not see the building. When I made it to Wal-Mart there was a beautiful waterfall coming off the building, landing in the middle of the road. When I dropped Joey off I waited at BWW for a few minutes when I came back out, the road was completely flooded and a car was stalled. I went around the back side of the mall and that intersection was flooded too. Had to cut through the parking lot, come out on the Sears side and go out Foxcroft that way.

NillaWafer said...

Hey Jill i can tell you it hit close by here my electric went out here at store and came back on, so i had to reboot both comps. The battery back ups did kick in.. Hey i didnt tell you but i have not heard a peep out of Tonna for weeks now.. she only stayed 1 night.. I am going to BWW and tell her she needs to get her things i am not a storage bin!!! And since Ken is moving i am really doing alot of cleaning and perhaps painting...

NillaWafer said...

Jill son came in and said the traffic lights were all out and blinking red.. Winchester Avenue is flodded and customers just said the entire steets in Martinsburg are flooded.. i wonder what the under path railroad bridges looks like???

NillaWafer said...

Hey Jill i think another storm is on the way.. was outside a minute and strong lightening bolt in the sky towards 81 area

NillaWafer said...

I have the nest up and ready to click if they appear.. so far nothing happening...

NillaWafer said...

EAGLESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

NillaWafer said...

BOTH IN NEST

NillaWafer said...

OMG THEY ARE BOTH THERE JUST BEAUTIFUL TAKING PICTURES!!!

NillaWafer said...

LIB FLEW OUT BELLES IN THE NEST

NillaWafer said...

MT NEST AT 6:49PM:02 WOW THAT WAS GREAT MAYBE THEY WILL BE BACK

NillaWafer said...

LOL 2 new leaves in the nest looks like maybe they brought them in...

glo said...

Hey Nilla.

glo said...

not staying to BLOG but wanted you to know someone else was excited to see them while you were enjoying there visit. Bad headache today not gonna read much but did have the cam up.

NillaWafer said...

I am so sorry you have 1 of those headaches again Glo... I sent the pictures i took... Hope you get to feeling better.. Hugsss

NillaWafer said...

And they did bring in those new leaves as Belle was working in that area right where she lays her eggs ...

NillaWafer said...

I know its really early for them to begin working like that but last season when i went over to NCTC 1 of the guards at the shack we were chatting and he said once he saw 1 of the eagles fly over and land near by and thought it had killed something but it was like jumping up and down and when it took off had its talons full of grass.. So they pull it out of the ground...

Costume Lady said...

HI NILLA--
Wow, you got to see our beauties and were all alone. Thanks for sharing their photos.

Costume Lady said...

It rained down here on Shepherdstown road about an hour or so ago, but was not very hard and only lasted about 5 minutes. It is thundering again right now. Hope we get some more rain. It is still dry under our trees.

NillaWafer said...

Well maybe a slight chance of them returning once more but i doubt it ..its thundering and lightening now here once again... Jill had a call from Tonna we had along talk.. MT nest still at 7:15pm

Costume Lady said...

Just checked in on Squiggles--sound asleep all by herself.

NillaWafer said...

Howdy Wanda yes i was not paying attention to the cam and looked up and there they were... Just beautiful... I heard many places here in Martinsburg have no power.. News said we got over and inch in less than a few minutes here it rained so hard...

Costume Lady said...

NILLA--Did your son get feeling back into his legs yet? How is he doing?

Costume Lady said...

My Mother lives in town by the City Hospital. I will have to check in on her.

NillaWafer said...

He is doing fine Wanda thanks... Oh and he sold that racing motor bike the other day, he had his accident on, so thats 1 less worry..lol

NillaWafer said...

Well i dont think they will appear again but i would bet they are roosting up on a higher branch where they like to set.. I hope Mema Jo made it to pizza ok without getting drenched...

Costume Lady said...

Yep--one less worry. My two daughters are both in their 40's and I still worry about them. My Mother is 87 and she still worries about me. You just never stop worring about those you love.

Costume Lady said...

Isn't it good to hear Jo's getting out and about now and feeling so good?

Costume Lady said...

Clean up time. BBL

NillaWafer said...

Sure is great Wanda she is 1 tough ole cookie... Oh my loud thunder once again... Battin down the hatches!!

movin said...

Good afternoon, Folks...

I watched Frieda feeding the chicks in a break from the drizzle...cute little fuzz balls. Only trouble is I could only see two fuzz balls. I hope there hasn't been any bad news.

It's possible to hide one amongst all that fuzz though, I'm sure.

They've got the WE cam and TH cam up again, but you can see the clouds of fog rolling over the nest areas. Better pictures though when you can see.

It's still like 80° and sunny in Santa Ana, but we are a few miles from the coast.

Boy, I used to see those giant "rolls" of fog coming in from the Pacific and up our valley when I lived in Del Mar Terrace...awesome.

Jim

paula eagleholic said...

Howdy, all. So glad some of you got a peek at our eagles tonight!

I am beat, was mowing the backyard...

Not a drop of rain here...

Jill said...

Just came back in. From Winchester Ave back to Raliegh doesn't have electric. The State Circle area is out. Wanda your mother probably lost electric but only briefly. I was out at King's Pizza and they only lost electric for a second. Most of the town was flooded. Not many limbs down that I could tell except WV Avenue or NY Ave. Crews were working in there when we came by

WANDA- I was on the phone with the other mag. when the storm hit. He was coming by Gosling Marsh and said the sun was shining bright. I was sitting behind Walmart and couldn't see the mall for all the rain.

Jill said...

NILLA-Joey said she has been at work most of the nights he is there. Could be the others she is off, so at least she is trying to keep the job.

MITS said...

What happened to the falcon cam...Jim, it is 8:15 p.m. here and still 87°.

MITS said...

ok I just got it back...

paula eagleholic said...

How was the zoo, Mits?

MITS said...

It was pretty quiet, Paula, and very warm.

MITS said...

Paula, I love the West End cam, beautiful fog was rolling in before.

paula eagleholic said...

Isn't it a pretty view?

paula eagleholic said...

I did a short video of the West End Nest today, there were some ravens and eagles flying around.

Birds 'n boats

paula eagleholic said...

Was hotter than the devil here this evening...well humid actually. Had to take a shower after mowing the lawn.

paula eagleholic said...

Nilla's pics are in the album...

MITS said...

Well, that was really neat, Paula. Looked like they were playing tag.

paula eagleholic said...

Man I am having IE issues again tonight....

Jill said...

Brace yourself, another storm coming through Martinsburg. Lightning bad. Some places still without electric but have no fear Allegheny Power is on it. Two of their trucks are sitting at Outback. Go figure.

Jill said...

Mits-did you guys get any of these storms? Looks like they went NW and missed you. OC isn't getting anything either.

paula eagleholic said...

I am hoping to see the eyasses...

Jill said...

Paula, are you getting bad weather?

paula eagleholic said...

If we're lucky and it holds together, maybe get some here...saw some lightening a little while ago, but nothing yet :(

Jill said...

Looks like it might be heading your way, you didn't any of the first one? It was nasty. This one is a little calmer.

paula eagleholic said...

Harvest Moon is still out here...pretty.

paula eagleholic said...

Nope, not a drop earlier...little bit of wind...was great when I was mowing.

MITS said...

Not a drop, Jill

MITS said...

They have changed the view at Brisbane.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Either the eagle spirits have arrived or Spidey is one busy feller tonight!

MITS said...

nope, now it is back, must be checking cam out for the future.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Or maybe it is a storm?

MITS said...

I just looked at the radar, those storms are really loving it up in Martinsburg.

MITS said...

look at that little fuzzy face

movin said...

Frieda is feeding chicks again.

See how many you count.

Jim

Jill said...

Yeah Mits I don't think the thunder has stopped for at least an hour. Loud bangs and booms. And bright lightning. No harvest moon here.

Robyn said...

I see all 3 :).

WOW, it is really storming outside thunder, lightning I really shouldn't be online and my satellite just lost signal :(.

It really came down this afternoon, was getting my manicure and we lost power a few times thought we were going to need candle power to finish up lol

signal back

Robyn said...

Jill my windows are vibrating with the thunder, as much as I love storms like this I hate them when alone, especially if the power were to go out, you know where I am, NO neighbors that are visible

Robyn said...

good thing I have some candles lit, lights just dimmed *shudder*

movin said...

I believe Frodo may be protecting the chicks now.

Jim

MITS said...

chicks in view....

Mema Jo said...

Hello! Pizza was great but we almost got 'drowned' getting up 81 into PA.
Like you Jill, it was bad enough that you wanted to pull over. Very torrential downpour! Then I saw a rainbow when we turned into Greencastle. Coming home I don't think that MD got even a drop! The harvest moon was beautiful coming down over the mountain! Bet you in WV
can't see it with all the storm activity! Really orange & BIG

MITS said...

It still looked like Frieda to me, Jim, didn't have the white dot on its back.

MITS said...

Frieda is back.

Mema Jo said...

Hey there, Robyn! We're here for you
Just hope you don't lose power! You could go to your sister-in-laws-Right?

Robyn said...

I saw the moon leaving my sis in laws tonight but it soon vanished behind clouds.

I can Jo but if I lost power I would just go to sleep, cellphone is charged for the alarm in the a.m.

MITS said...

What kind of pizza, did you have, Jo?

Robyn said...

my 115 lb lb is more afraid then me lol, had to go to basement to reset the wireless modem,now that was scary lol it is dark down here at night, good thing we didn't lose power then

Mema Jo said...

I was different this evening-
I had spaghetti/meatballs. The others had plain cheese and then green peppers-olives-mushrooms...
It was really good - we go up about once a month.

Robyn said...

that was Lab not lb

Robyn said...

Where in greencastle Jo?

Jill said...

Sterling radar says it is almost out of here, you may still be getting some of it Robyn and Wanda. Heading almost due north little east.

Mema Jo said...

Went to Tony's in Greencastle right on RT 11 going into town.

Jill - I can hear the thunder!!!

Robyn said...

Italian restaurant? I love italian food

Costume Lady said...

It is raining cats & dogs here now.
Like Jill & Robyn, we are having thunder and lightning one strike and one boom after another. Just goes on and on. Wonderful rain. I hope everyone is getting this. It is great for my Fall crops.

MITS said...

mmmm, I love Italian...no rain in Bethesda.

MITS said...

still 85°

movin said...

Yes, Frieda is back on the fluffies.

Have you read the Catalina report for this week yet? Lot of info on what they're doing to the cameras and pics of the eagles and nests.

Jim

movin said...

Well, you made me hungry. ladies. Now I've got to go bake some fish sticks or something ... which reminds me, the Dr. said my cholesterol has dropped about 50 to 178 and the good cholesterol is back up in the green zone. Mostly the medicine he gave me, but I have been eating more fish lately.

GOOD NIGHT, EVERYBODY/GOOD MORNING TO SUZANNE AND THE EARLY BIRDS.

JIM


paula eagleholic said...

Good for you Jim!

Couple of sprinkles here, but I not much.

MITS said...

Moon still shining here, GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE,,,TTUT!

paula eagleholic said...

Maybe I'll get to see the fluff balls...

Costume Lady said...

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE--
SLEEP WELL

paula eagleholic said...

There they are...eatin' time!

paula eagleholic said...

Their feet are so cute....

Hmmm...seems the pop up window at Brisbane keeps crashing me IE...ARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!

Robyn said...

Night Mits, Wanda

paula eagleholic said...

Good night Mits, and now Wanda. You still working on schoolwork, Robyn?

Mema Jo said...

Got about 10 rain drops - thunder and lightning has stopped. Perhaps it will return before morning!
Paula I enjoyed watching the ravens/eagles over at the WE nest. Such a great view!
See those fluff balls! Can't wait until they sit up......

paula eagleholic said...

They are on big fluff ball at the moment...looks like Mama is eating.

Mema Jo said...

Guess I have a dental in the am. SO
best be heading in to bed soon.

Good night everyone out there!
Peace to You & Yours
See you in the morning all you
Early Birds

paula eagleholic said...

Have a good rest Jo.

paula eagleholic said...

Good Night, Robyn. I was up too late watching the hatching last night!

Happy Thursday, Suz!

Robyn said...

My post disappeared

No I'm finished for the night Paula, was out most of the day with tori and friends. Was worried I lost power too when I got home saw my dusk to dawn light was on...phew

Robyn said...

Here is a real intersting story on birds and them seeing magnetic felds which aids in migratory nirds

http://www.livescience.com/animals/070926_birds_see_magnetism.html

Robyn said...

migratory Birds :)

Robyn said...

Night Paula I'm heading to sleep to

Bird Girl said...

there are only 2 eyasses now, i'm sending a pic to the Momsters group email...poor thing. perhaps it just wasn't strong enough?

movin said...

Good morning, Suzanne.
I slept a couple of hours and then had to get up ... turn everything off for the night.

Thought I would give you a "good morning" before hitting the rack again.

I see Bird Girl thinks there are two Peregrine chicks too. I wondered on here last evening, but I couldn't be 100% sure how many there were with all that fluff.

Have a great day,
Jim

Suzanne said...

Good morning, world. Just saw BirdGirls last comment, so went to read the webpage. That's too bad, they have a chick they don't know what happend. It's missing. Let's hope the other 2 eyasses make it just fine!
Beautiful night out, got a few drops of rain last night, almost made the roads damp. But 68° at my house, 72° here, so guess it's gonna be a warm one. Had my seranade coming down, so all the crickets and some locusts were out and about.
Will try to glance at blogs, see what I missed.
We have a beautiful pic on our cam of the nest, but MT at the moment. BW is down again, and Bai's nursing den is totally MT. So Bai and Squiggles are sleeping elsewhere tonight. Even looks like a lot of the bedding is gone also. Hum, wonder if somebody cleaned house???
All have a great eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

Suzanne said...

Good morning, Jim. You must have commented right after I logged on and started commenting. You need to work out your sleep, you're gonna be dragging! I hope you can go to back to sleep.
I read the comments on the webpage, they have been updated. They even reviewed the cam logs from yesterday, and one chick has totally disappeared. They don't know what happened to it, there were no predators, and either Frieda or Frodo were very near the babies at all times. So it's a bit of a mystery. I'm sorry to hear it, I was hoping all 3 would make it with no problems! Sure hope this is going to be a good year, and no nesting problems like we had last year...they seemed to never end.
Sleep tight if you go back to sleep!

movin said...

On the Frodo site, they think it was the second chick that went missing, but I saw that one live and healthy, but I don't believe I ever saw the 3rd one ... just that shell with the strange hole in the side.

I agree with one of the people who sent questions...I think Frieda found the third one unviable, made that unusual hole in the shell and disposed of the dead contents.

Jim

movin said...

Yes, Suzanne, I have to get back to sleep...good news is, I'm feeling really sleepy right now...

Until later in the morning, have a great time.

Jim

Suzanne said...

Jim, sorry I missed you! I went to check my Yahoo mail, and found some articles and pics of pandas, to include our Squiggles on their main page. Well, stop the world, had to look at that. Quite a few pics of Squiggles during her exams. Also read where the Chinese government has now stopped giving/loaning pandas to any other foreign government, as of last Thursday. That sucks! Didn't read details, will have to do that.
