Wonderful pictures, Steve. Chloe is beautiful as is the Kestral. The kestral kept using its beak to try to untie the knot and free itself.
Going thru emails and wanting to check out other photos that have been posted. Be right back

Train ride was GOOOOOOOD!

Costume Lady said...

DANA--STEELERS ARE MY SECOND FAVORITE TEAM---REDSKINS FIRST, OF COURSE!

Mema Jo said...

Great photos of the Momsters, Wanda

Costume Lady said...

JO--Glad you enjoyed the train ride. Please let us know if Norma got her ticket. We have been in suspense all day!

movin said...

The hog of cyberspace just snapped up my comment as I hit "enter"!

I thanked both Bob and Steve for their great pictures. Said I could use some I.D.'s on many of them.

I asked Wanda for the link to her blog spot.

And I asked if you are all recovering from yesterday by now.

Jim

Mema Jo said...

Blog Hog just ate my comment I want to repost this link


Bob Quinn's photos from Open House


JIM Just click on Wanda's name & then click on her listed blog at the bottom of her profile

Costume Lady said...

SORRY JIM--As I said, I am not very alert today. Maybe I had too many Eagle Talons & Poop Shooters. LOL
Click on my name and then on my "Profile" click on Wanda's Wishes. There are just a few photos so you all can see Anne-Marie and Glo, whom none of us had ever met before yesterday.

Mema Jo said...

No, Wanda, Norma did not appear. I think she planned to stay at Lisa's.
I now have her ticket from Anne and will mail it to her.It will be honored for a year.. We'll get her on that train yet! Had I been able to have been contacted, I had Lisa's home number. It just wasn't meant to be, I guess.

Costume Lady said...

JO--Did Anne-Marie go on to Williamsburg?

MITS said...

It is what it is!!!GOODNIGHT EVERYONE!

movin said...

Good night, Mits. Thanks, Mema Jo. I will go to Wanda's pics next.

Did you read about the wildfire in Malibu?

We are really getting some humungous Santa Ana winds with LARGE GUSTS today, so if a fire breaks out, watch out!!

Jim

Costume Lady said...

Jim--We did hear about the fires. Are they very close to you?

Costume Lady said...

JO--Did Glo, Vicky & Iris go to the nest this morning and if so, did they see Lib or Belle?

Mema Jo said...

Placing Wanda's photos of nest visit Saturday am into Momster.. I'll let you know when finished......

Anne was headed straight to Williamsburg.
Glo,Vicky & Iris were to be at Iris' for the night before heading home.

movin said...

Well, Wanda, the Malibu fire is not very close, but there are approx. a dozen wildfires in So Cal, the winds and temperature are very high, the humidity is very low.

We all used to go crazy from the winds, the heat, the sandblasts to the face and the tumble weeds blowing everywhere and piling up against the houses during the Santa Ana Winds when I lived in the country in San Diego County!

And you should have seen the way it affects cats...you've heard the term "nervous as a cat." Well, multiply that by at least 10, and you can imagine the time.

Mema Jo said...


Wanda's pics of AM hr 10/20



Dana's pics of PM hr 10/21

wvgal_dana said...

I guess we will hear more tomorrow about the train ride. Whether they seen eagles or not. Everyone is probably tired tonight.

NillaWafer said...

Even when i didnt win anything .. sniff but my own pieces of pie that were left..lol Actually they were divided up... Am so looking forward to a Christmas Party.... as i was looking back on last years party and only afew of us were there NOW bunches n bunches of Momsters have joined in!!! Sorry to say my Jasmin is sick and her mother is now taking her to hospitol as she is wheezing badly... Diana is behind me laughing out loud her daddy is playing with her... Thanks for all the love you showed the babies, but they are little Momsters too.... I just cant wait to see all the pictures in the albums .. I hope we find out if Glo 7 Vicky 7 Iris seen the eagles this morning too...

wvgal_dana said...

Oh Nilla I'll put Jasmin in prayer. I know others will too as they read your comment.

Costume Lady said...

NILLA--So sorry your little angel isn't feeling well. Prayers for her, of course. She and little Diana were an absolute joy last night. Never have I seen two babies so good for so long. They are both adorable.

paula eagleholic said...

Bob -thanks for the awesome pics. Great shots of the raptors and Momsters!

Wonderful picture of Norma!

And Wanda - great pics, I'll get them posted on Momsters, too!

Still waiting to hear about the train ride!!

I got pics posted, but have yet to do descriptions!

paula eagleholic said...

Wanda - Ditto! They were adorable!

Costume Lady said...

DANA--Prayers too, for the C.O.Ps
group (is that right?) that you were telling us about last night.

wvgal_dana said...

Paula it is just COPs WALK which of course stands for families of policemen/policewomen that have died in the line of duty. The ladies (might be men I didn't see any but could have been) are going into different towns doing a walk. There they were doing a 25 mile walk for their charity. Jo said I think they were in Harpers Ferry too. They will be going other places too. Thank you for prayers for them.

wvgal_dana said...

The two babies were to me "two little eaglets" getting lots of attention from the Eaglet Momsters. lol

Mema Jo said...

The Potomac Eagle Train
I left home at 10am and returned at 7pm. Due to Iris' cane for walking & my oxygen for breathing, we were given the privilege of boarding the train with our guests at a separate car. Glo,Vicky,Jennifer,my hubby boarded with us. We spread out & had enough seats saved JUST in case we could find the other 6 Momsters. Jennifer walked through the cars & found them. Carol,Anne & Diane, Megan, Robyn & Tori were the other 6. The foliage driving up was breathtaking! We sighted an eagle's nest and about 2 that were flying high. When Robyn,Glo,Anne & Megan were out in the open car they sighted a Juvie flying along the river. And that is the clickety clack, clickety clack of the story.
Hopefully Megan, Carol, Glo, Vicky, Iris & Robyn will add their thoughts. Anne & Diane will have much to tell when they return.

Costume Lady said...

Thanks, Jo, for the update on the Train Trip. It was an absolutly perfect day for the outing. As NORMA would say: God is good.

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP WELL

Jill said...

Bob-don't you dare take down Norma's picture, she is a beauty. She fusses at me for posting them so now she can fuss at you. LOL.

Glad everybody had a good train ride, wish I could have been with you but duty calls. Even if they didn't call me in all day. Figures. Going to check out some more pictures.

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Everyone
Peace to You & Yours

wvgal_dana said...

Night Wanda sleep well.

Thank you Jo for the update on the Train. I'm sure others tomorrow will add some too. Glad Jennifer found everyone. ( :

Jill said...

Wanda-Zach loved the hat. He is trying to figure out a costume to go with it. They had it over behind Buffalo Wild Wings riding skateboards with it on. They were hilarious.

wvgal_dana said...

NIght everyone ^l^ ^l^ AOYP=Angels On Your Pillows

floralgirl said...

Jo summed it up well, and the open car was really cool,with no roof you could really see everything. I saw one red tailed hawk, a heron, 1 juvenile eagle and about 3 adults. The lady working on the train said the eagles were seen flying more on Saturday:( And the car right before that had large open windows you could hang our of(shh..don't tell JO I was hanging out the window again) And one of the ladies working on the train wants one of Wanda's beautiful necklaces quite badly! She gave me her name and adress to see if she could get one. She was really checking out Anne's necklace. Bob Q's pictures from Saturday are great. That is such a nice picture of Norma. What a great weekend with such a wonderful group of people. Off to bed, up at 5 tomorrow ,cause darn, it's Monday again..

Bob Quinn said...

Night all! Nice reading everyone's comments. Sounds like a great train ride. Type at you tomorrow!

Q.

movin said...

GOOD NIGHT, EVERYONE. PEACEFUL SLEEP. GOOD MORNING TO SUZANNE AND THE EARLY BIRDS ...

If there are any after all the fun this weekend.

Thanks for the impressions of the two days, as well as the pics, ladies. Sounds great.

I will look at the remainder of the pics, but maybe I'll wait until morning.

Jim

Suzanne said...

Good morning, world. Had a wonderful time at NCTC Open house Saturday, and we had absolutely beautitul weather! See Steve put up a couple pics, awesome! Loved that wolf, he was beautiful, as were all the Raptors and other animals. I love Lemurs, and they had one, it was the cutest thing!
Will have to go see what everybody blogged, and try to catch up. Don't have my pics developed yet, will do that today or tomorrow and post them.
It was super to see everybody again, and so nice to meet Glo and Annie, and Bob Quinn and relatives! Bob, we lost you after the Raptors did their tunnel, which was awesome! Megan and Robyn helped with that too, how cool was that! Safe travels home everyone!
We have a nice pic on our cam, but of course MT, and too much activity on Sat to see Lib and Belle. Hope everyone saw lots of eagles on the eagle train yesterday.
F&F cam is in color, but new view, and only see MT ledge. No idea where Dolly is. Bai and Squiggles and sleeping, and looks like mom is on her tummy, and can't see Squiggles at all.
All haave a great eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

NillaWafer said...

Thought i better drop in before going to bed... Its almost 4:30am and just got home from hospitol ... Jasmin gave us quite a scare... being apreemie they did test for RSV (hope thats right the lung thing preemies get) and they also tryed to cather her for urine sample and after 3 times trying i said NO MORE... they agreed and they took Xrays of her lungs.. all this time i am praying and she didnt have what they thought and was put on Amoxicillin twice a day... She is still a sick lil girl but she just smiles... Well i am so tired ... Hope everyone has agreat day and eagles in the morning... Hugs, Nilla

Suzanne said...

Morning, Nilla! Sorry to hear about Jasmin, hope she's ok! Go to bed and get some sleep! Wish I could, always have a hard time getting to bed on Sunday night, and then sleeping and trying to get up on Monday mornings! Give Jasmin a hug for me.

Glancing back at the blogs, I did see Bob's photos! As always, Bob awesome pics!! I didn't know you didn't know where we were going, we would have taken you in hand!!! We were all asking for you, and of course, nobody had your cell number. And I love the pic I bought from you, it is absolutely beautiful! I didn't notice, but that's the metal paper or whatever it was that was discussed on here a while back. I think that is georgous! It really does bring out everything. Need to get hold of you, or will have to go back and look for your link, that was just the first of several I'd like to get of your photos!!!

F&F is not B&W, but fairly in focus, but still no Dolly.

Uh oh, PC just locked up, so gonna post this before blogger cop gets it!

Suzanne said...

Wow, this upgrade amazes me every day. I have the Africam up, and there is a couple ducks, zoomed in on one, and she/he is just quacking! You can see throat moving and mouth open. How cool is that. And wind is blowing. Have no clue what kind of duck, but it's just resting and making noise.
Bai and Squiggles still sleeping.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING SUZ--
Wasn't Open House wonderful. I went to the Animal Show (in the auditorium) while waiting on you gals to show up. I enjoyed that sooo much. I have some photos that I will post later from that show.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Wanda, yes, it was wonderful! And we were so lucky with such wonderful weather! Megan, Norma, and her daughter, and I did the Battson's Critters too, but not till end of the day. Watched the raptors, then the critters. Awesome! Wasn't that wolf beautiful? Georgous creature. I'll post my photos sometime before Wednesday...

Almost time for our kids to drop in!

Costume Lady said...

I am so sorry that you didn't know about our little Eagletailgate Party. That was my fault, because I posted the invite the EVENING of Friday, not thinking about you not being on here. Could have told you at NCTC, but just wasn't thinking.
We had Eagle Talons again and Poop Shooters (they tasted better than they sounded).

Costume Lady said...

Did the Python (or was it a Boa?) wrap around the leg of the holder?
That was hysterical. Don't know if it does it everytime someone holds it or not. Hope it did when you watched the show.
I went into the auditorium too late to catch anyones names. Do you know the name of the man and his wife handling the animals?

Costume Lady said...

Going for COFFEE before our pair visit.

Suzanne said...

Wanda, yes, the Python was tightening around the legs. Didn't get first names, but show is Battson's Critters. Megan says they are there every year, and bring different animals each time. Only thing they ALWAYS bring is a snake, rest are all different.
BBIALW, gotta do something before kids arrive.

Suzanne said...

Come to think of it, was her name Cheryl? No clue what his name was. I'm terrible with names.

Suzanne said...

Squiggles is nursing. Dolly is back in her corner, cam back to normal view. She sure is getting big! Ducks still on Africam. Looks like that gigantic pen is still in our nest. They're due any time if they're coming. Still kinda dark out yet, though, so maybe in a few minutes.

Suzanne said...

Eagle in BW! Hope our make an appearance too!

Suzanne said...

Ok, guess our kids are either sleeping in or having another cup of coffee! Eagle still in BW.

Costume Lady said...

Maybe all the visitors and excitement of Open House has their routine messed up. I wonder if anyone saw them yesterday morning.

Suzanne said...

BW eagle took off. Ours still sleeping in...

Suzanne said...

Wanda, there are some pics on the momsters page of evening visits on Sat and Sun. Think they're evening, don't remember the times. Wait a minute, didn't you post some pics? Think Dana has a couple out there too, from yesterday.

Suzanne said...

Just opened NZ. Looks like someone wants out of that door. Ok, change cams that quick. And Squiggles was alone, but mom's back now. Oh, she's holding squiggles with all 4 legs, how cute is that! I think that panda just got out the door. Looks like he/she's moving a big wire cage or something.

Suzanne said...

2 BW eagles sitting in the sun! Beautiful.

Suzanne said...

Oh, door is opening, and panda is gone.. Now showing one on the rocks. Don't know the areas yet, so no clue where this is or who this is. Just a cutie, that's for sure!

Suzanne said...

Panda came outside, white butt, so must be Tai.

Costume Lady said...

NEW THREAD SUZANNE--COME ON OVER.

Suzanne said...

IGGLES gone from BW. Ours are no shows this morning!

Suzanne said...

IGGLES BACK, BW!

Suzanne said...

Oh, thanks, Megan! I knew you'd remember. Good morning, to you.

Suzanne said...

Both eagles still in BW, one is in and out.Two pandas in NZ eating and arguing over bamboo. They both want the same stalk!

Suzanne said...

Ok, those 2 pandas, one is now on his back. Thought Tai did that? Is he in with someone else, like mom? One is sitting eating, one is on his back eating.
