Did you see our visitors?
Way to go, Steve!!!! Great pic for our new thread! Thanks!
Thanks for the heads up, Wanda, hope the others get here soon.
Oh darn, just left!
Hello again WANDA and SUZANNE and JIM. Someone came so had to get off and then when I tried to get back on I had trouble.
Contratulations WANDA on being the NO> ! Blogger for Thursday. Thanks Steve for the new thread for these talkative people and for the great cam pics this am.
Candy, we love having you on the blog! Talking about your last comment on previous blog.
OMG, EAGLE BACK!!!!!!!!!
Great shots of Belle. Thanks much for the the new thread, Steve.
She's in...she's out...she's in...she's out..........SHE'S IN!
Jim
GOOD MORNING CANDY & JIM
I left for a minute to get coffee, did I miss anything...did Lib ever bring Belle breakfast?
I guess if he did, she would still be there.......DUH.
Her feathers are really blowing! Windy here too.
Well, I had better be on my way and look like I am doing something. All you lucky ducks have a good day; Suz a safe trip home to your kitties, especially Gypsy.
NORMA Hayyp Belated Birthday on the blog and Happy Birthday to you Belle. Hope you come back to this blog to stay. I think I saw you on the other night.
A little eagle chick told me that someone else has a birthday this week. I wonder who that could be? :) All have a wonderful day.
Also an eagle on BW now.
Jim
Morning, Candy...meant to say it as new thread was announced.
Haven't seen Norma since Tuesday. Musta had a great birthday.
Jim
Jim, Norma has Bible study on Wednesdays. She was here very briefly yesterday AM.
Candy, you have a great day too! Hopefully, blog at you tomorrow.
You are right, JIM, about Norma. She hasn't been back. Too much partying.
Just looked in on our fuzzy Dolly, and she is still alone. Been over an hour, can't be a good thing! So where did the parent on the ledge go?
Eagle still hanging out, looking at cam now.
Liberty or Belle just waiting. BW flew the box. Fatty the croc is sunning on the bank of Pete's Pond.
Jim
Poof...gone.
Missed the eagle at BW, Jim, so glad you saw it!
Well, 3 very fast visits this morning. Wonder if they're gonna shoot for 5 visits again????
Bai is back with Squiggles, but they're sleeping.
SORRY NORMA---I didn't see you yesterday. Shop is keeping me busy. Try to keep up reading the blog, but just skim through sometimes.
Ok, gonna take a breath. BB in a few, then I'll do pics.
Suzanne, it's like 74° at 11 p.m. down in Aussie Land, and the chick is getting somewhat older...
Note the bright lights are still on, and the ledge is much brighter ... let's see if they get turned off at midnight down there.
Jim
Going to read my e-mail.
TTYL
If you keep up with the S. Cruz and Catalina updates weekly, you are in luck this morning. There are new entries in both areas, take a peek when you get a chance.
Jim
Bai Yun and Squiggles are sleeping in the den ... first time I've seen Bai with her back to the little wiggle.
Jim
Now they're in a more usual position.
NORMA!! Where are you, we miss you.
Jim
Guess I might as well get some coffee....
Talk later.
Jim
Jim, Bai actually pushed Squiggles away from her this morning! Didn't last long though, Squiggles didn't like it and kept moving around till she could touch Bai again. Then Bai just rolled back over and held Squiggles. She's a good mommie!! Adorable to watch them.
Glad it's that warm in Brisbane, I just worry now since we've already lost 2, don't want to lose a third!
Beautiful sunrise on the Great Smokey Mountains cam! Sun coming up over the mtns.
Good Morning Suzanne, Wanda (1st today wax for you), Jim,and Candy, and all watchers.
I got computer up running to see them. Then heard doggie so then.
I didn't get to see the L or B in the nest. Would have but oldest doggie needed me. Help her outside and carry her up steps back in.
Norma usually comes back in when she is finished Bible study group. Didn't see her back yesterday. We know that Norma the Birthday Girl Yesterday Was probably PARTYING. hee hee
GOOD MORNING DANA--
Did it ever rain down your way? I think you said it was brewing up a storm. We didn't get anything here.
I just watched the video of the Dancing Bird from the Momsters e-mail. That is sooooo funny. LMBO
Yesterday no rain Wanda...very windy. Leaves was going everywhere.
Thanks Steven for new thread and putting up that neat pic someone took.
Before I get busy and forget:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO BELLE OF WV
NEED YOU TO JOIN US MORE OFTEN.
HAVE A GREAT DAY!
Time for me to get my day going.
Will check in on you all when I get my break. (The Capt. gives me a break)
Eagle on BW again (smaller one).
Good morning, Dana, and, yes, Norma IS a party animal, I guess.
A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO BELLE, INDEED.
Jim
Oh boy, Suzanne, look how much darker and blurrier it looks at Brisbane now that the lights are out!
Jim
Good morning all. 3 visits already today, that is ownderful. I am off tocoffee and dog treats then followed by a Staff Meeting and major dog food shopping at Walmart...who has just redecorated or remodeled and I can find nothing but other lost shoppers from the moment I enter the store.
Happy Birthday Belle Hope your day is very special indeed. So good to see you on the BLOG...I am so hoping to meet you next weekend at some point. I will bring the deck of cards :).
Another Birthday this week you say!!!!!! Hmmmm... well I love Birthday parties, Bring on the Celebrations.
Morning Glo you go girl ( :
Brisbane temp. says 22C I checked it didn't say below so that is about 70 degrees there.
Things are blurry there but looks like chick "Dolly" is near the far corner.
Just read the reports from IWS on Santa Cruz and Catalina... I recommend them to you.
Jim
Now Frodo cam is clearer again ... More light again?
Jim
Alright Jim if your talking to me going there now.
Morning Dana and Glo and everyone. Had my computer locked out and couldn't get back on. After several calls to various people, seems I am working again. At least for a while.
Jim, think the light is still on, you can sorta see it by the ledge and the building. Chick hasn't moved though, hope she's just very very tired. Pic is fuzzy, gets worse during the day. Mits told me yesterday that after it goes to B&W, pic gets fuzzy for about the last week or so. Noticed yesterday getting worse as our day progresses, and their night progresses. Guess we can't do anything about that.
Now, before this %(*)*%&$% goes down again, I better send pics from this morning's visit!
Don't understand Frodo cam...
When I wrote that comment is was very clear for nightcams, but now it's back to blur and more blur.
I think I can see Frieda's tail on the wall which edges the ledge.
Jim
Jim, I think you're right! Someone's tail feathers are showing on the cam. Phew, sure makes me feel better knowing one of the parents is SOMEWHERE near.
See, Frodo cam is clearer again!
Jim I was able to see the video on Hyde the immature eagle and Pimu the mature eagle. Awesome eagles.
I also got to see the pics of them trapping the eagle. Looks like they got the perfect one. She is beautiful...transmitter on now and they should get good information I'm hoping; ie diet, DDT and etc.
Good Morning, Eagle Land!
Thanks for the lovely picture, Steve!
Hyde is a Golden Eagle!
Oh ok thank you Paula she is beautiful. They both were...They are really busy out that way. The trapping was very interesting.
WOW, Jim, I didn't realise you hadn't seen Lib and Belle "in the feather", so to speak. Good for you!!
Paula did you see they are calling for 38 degrees Friday night...eeeekkk
The eagle they trapped was just gorgeous! I loved that head shot!
And the way Hyde takes that pork right from Dr Sharpe's fingers...amazing. Funny though, he does sound like a chicken!
Guess Autumn is finally here, Dana!
Paula are those two Hyde and Pimu injured?
Weather forecast for Sat Oct 20 in Shepherdstown is Sunny and 68 degrees...not that anyone is getting anxius at all :)
sounds perfect...
Morning, Paula. Nice out, but chilly.
Pimu was injured and cannot be released. I don't know the full story on Hyde yet, but apparently he can't be released either.
OH DOLLY IS AWAKE! And moving, I think. She did move, phew!!
Parent hasn't been there long while. Parent now on ledge. Dolly turned. Her head is pointing towards the ledge.
Thank you Paula for the information on Pimu.
Woo got the 10 second cam on Dolly head turned towards wall. Suzanne is she moving around that much?
If Squiggles keeps on she will be out of the nest bed lol
Morning, Suz and Glo.
Glo, don't count on that for next week! The weather can change in an instant around here!
Dana, I've only seen her kinda look up at parent, then move head back down to go back to sleep.
This morning's pics are on the way...
Here comes Bai back in den. Squiggles sound asleep. No, Bai is covering her with bamboo, and Squiggles is now awake!
Did you see that???? Mom sorta threw Squiggles out of the way! Too funny. Bai is making her bed with bamboo or straw, and just moving Squiggles like she's part of the bedding! Poor thing!
Bai is just dragging that poor Squiggles all over! Too funny!
Bai is back and throwing straw all up on herself lol. I guess she'll be feeding Squiggles soon. Man is Bai really digging at the straw. Bam caught Squiggles with her paw while digging at straw. Squiggles rows. Hey Mom watch out there..Remember I'm in here too!
After all that nursing time now. Bet Squiggles is glad all the straw throwing is over with lol
Too funny. Now mom has picked Squiggles up very gently, and gonna nurse. Well, after bath, that is. Dana, she was really throwing that straw around, wasn't she?
Now Suzanne if we see Dolly get fed we'll be set. ( :
Boy that was a short nursing time Bai. Squiggles feet are really moving. Bet she is yelling at Mom since she left.
EEwwiiiieee at BW
Bai gave up, left the den and let Squiggles go back to sleep.
4 Ewwies in BW! They're having a PARTY!
Eewwwiiie party at BW now.
Dana, I think you'll have to wait awhile to see Dolly get fed....tis still the middle of the night...she usually does bring in breakfast around 6-7am tho.
Dana, I won't see her get fed, it's night over there, and the falcons only hunt and feed during the day.
The night sky belongs to the owls!
LOl, Suz.
Hey Suz, you doing the eagle train?
Ok Paula ty again for information lol you seem to be my time reporter today ty lol
Is that 5 at BW now.
Man, they're all over the nest, aren't they? Must have good music going on...
Would love to Paula, but I can't. With my hours I need at least one day to get stuff ready for the next week. Wish I could, I wanted to go cause I've never been, but laundry, and other exciting things will be waiting for me. UGH!!!
Ok, this must be the Ewwwiiieee version of musical chairs. Looks like food in the center of the nest, so guess they're trying to see who can get it? Or not...
they are all over that nest!
Wow, 2 eagles chased those Ewwiiesss away in a hurry! How cool was that!
Eagle pair at BW now
Check out the feet on the one on the right...
LOL, they are getting a new hairdo today!
They are yelling at something!
Those Ewwiieess wanna get back to their party!
Spoil sport eagles won't let them (thanks, guys). Too funny.
Yeah, Paula, what's he got on his foot?
Suzanne I wasn't even looking at the time duh me. I have to get into the swing of things for this season.
Up close and personal to cam, how beautiful is that!
Wow, too cool, up close to the cam. Beautiful face shot.
Man, I could watch these guys all day!
Well that eagle that was hunkered down ready to go, went. One still left.
pretty pair!
BW eagle gone...
Vulture back! Look at those wings!
Suz, I hear ya on trying to get things done in one day....guess I'll be trying to at least squeeze my laundry in sometime that weekend!
GOOD THURSDAY A.M. EVERYONE!!
GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDDIES-----I have missed you all!!!---Lady who helps me---got my wires crossed--ho!---at my COMPUTER----Finally got it on this a.m.----WOW!---KIDS!!---"LIFE IS TOUGH WITHOUT A COMPUTER!!----It's a CLOUDY COOL day in WV this a.m.--temp. 54°---But maybe some rain!!!----Haven't read the BLOG yet---DID CHECK THE EAGLE PICS SUZANNE sent!!!---THANKS!!
Missed the vulture returning. Didn't stay long, I guess.
Yeah, Paula, I have no time during the week to get anything done. Home for only a little over 3 hours before I have to go to bed to start all over again! And the first hour is taken up with feeding and watering the various animals/birds and plants that live at my house. Maybe if we do it again next year.
Hi Mits! Hi Norma! You guys missed the Ewwiiee party this morning! Must be 5:00 someplace in Ewwiiee world...
Morning there Mits...things go well at the zoo yesterday?
Friday night it is suppose to get down to 38 degrees here. eekekeke
Suzanne is that a bird laying near Dolly?
Hi Norma party gal ( :
You have better eyes than I do, Dana, but yes, I see something that wasn't there earlier. See parent has also moved closer to Dolly!
Interesting day at the zoo yesterday, Dana. Had not one but 2 kids get their knees stuck in the railings in the panda house....got the first one out with soap, but the second one was later and the cam room was locked, and could not get the soap, but lucky a man was there who said to lift the knee towards the top and knee came right out, also had a very disgrunted woman who didn't like anything.....that's why I get paid the big bucks:):):).
Good Thursday Morning Everyone
Boy oh Boy! The blog is as busy as Belle & Liberty have been visiting the nest. I just want them to be around Open House Saturday! Suzanne 66+ pictures and about 10 more hours to watch for return trips! WHOO HOO
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELLE OF WV
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!
Hoping you visit us today to get all these well wishes!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BELLE:)!
Good grief, somewhat exciting day yesterday, Mits. Glad the kids got out alright!
How can you go to a zoo and not like anything?
Good Thursday morning, Jo! Wow, did I take that many pictures? Geesh, I had no idea.
You know, to see them make their early morning visit at the nest we're all gonna have to be at the nest Sat around 6:30, don't you? That should be fun. We can watch their early AM visit, then help NCTC setup for the open house!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL BELLE!!---HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!-----AND MANY--MANY--MANY MORE!!!!----GREAT to have you back!!!----ENJOY YOUR SPECIAL DAY!!!
The "LITTLE PRINCE" must have had a "busy nite"---He's sleeping on his GRILL!!----LOVE HIM!
Happy Birthday our sweet Momster Belle
Wow you were busy. Yep you earned those big bucks yesterday. Maybe the woman didn't realize she was really at home at the zoo lol
SUNNY IN ATLANTA!----BUTA BUTA asleep on the logs---LUN LUN is pacing!!----This is what they do before they start "rockin' & rollin"----ho!
Looks windy at the zoo Norma...They had an up close of his face earlier this morning. You would have loved it NOrma....Tai's a cutie.
HELEN---Did you see the "LITTLE PRINCE" yesterday??----Bet he recognizes you!!---ho!!----I know if I went to see him & he ignored me---I would be offended---KIDDIN'-----
Never thought about that, Dana....was wishing I had the cane then.
Suzanne, just talked to Ceil, she has no idea, why you mails aren't getting through.....?
Eagle back at BW
SUZANNE---Maybe the "nasty" lady saw a relative inside the ZOO!--Only reason I know!!!!--ho!
LOOKED AT BOB'S PICS---He makes the VULTURES look beautiful!!!----I so enjoy your photographs!!---Looking forward to see you at OPEN HOUSE!!!!
THANKS PAULA----I missed him!!!
I am really amazed at some people from sheer joy at seeing the pandas to complaints about when are they going to wake up, when are they going outside, when are they coming in, and on and on and on!!
Squiggles up close and personal. She is such a little doll!!!
Mits, I don't either. I had 7 delayed delivery messages this morning, all of them to Ceil, and one to Ceil and Wanda. The one to Ceil and Wanda was the Lib and Belle pics from yesterday. So I wrote her a note here on the blog, and she sent me an email. I responded to her email, but asked her a question too. Never received an answer, so she probably didn't get that email either, though I don't have a delayed delivery message for it.
Thought her mailbox was full. Guess not. Did she get the pics of the Lib and Belle visits this morning?
Squiggles is alone, and they were zooming in on her, but now she's in a little ball!
She is adorable, butt in the air just like mom!! How precious is that??
Eagle just appeared in BW.
Jim
EAGLE in BW!
When I talked to her she was not at home, and hasn't had a chance to see all her e-mails from this a.m.
Eagle at BW is eating
Good morning again, everybody..
Happy Birthday, Belle, and Norma, again too.
I felt an opportunity to go back to sleep earlier, took it, and it worked... Until the gardener with the loud mower struck again.
I see the Frieda-chick pic is a lot better right now.
Jim
I looked in on SQUIGGLES----WHOA--the little 'LOVE BUG'---was doing JIM'S dance----She was "MOVIN'"---She is a SPUNKY little gal!!---Not long before BAI will be chasing her!!!
SUZANNE---SAFE JOURNEY HOME & LOVE PATS to "G" & FRIENDS!!!!---
See you tomorrow Suzanne take care
Talk to you tomorrow, Suzanne.
WOW! SUZANNE!---WE ARE ALL NOT ON YOUR EARLY SCHEDULE----ho!---DO YOU SUPPOSE WE COULD MAKE AN APPT. TO SEE BELLE & LIBERTY LATER IN THE DAY?????---ho!-----JO WHAT TIME ARE YOU PICKING UP JIM AT DULLES ??? OR IS HE RIDING WITH ANNE-MARIE????
For sure, have a good day, Suzanne.
Jim
I didn't know Jim was coming to open-house???
hee hee cam angle makes Squiggles look like she is sleeping on her head lol
Really Norma is Jim coming to NCTC Open House?????????????????????????????????????
GONNA READ YESTERDAY'S BLOG!!
(i don't think jim knows it either!)
Check out Pete's Pond. It looks like a small group of Ibises perched and preening on a tall snag.
Jim
Jim what are you doing on Oct 20th, 2007?????????????
Happy Biiirthday to Yooouuu!!
Happy Biiirthday to Yooouuu!!
Happy Biiirthday Featherless Belle!!
Happy Biiirthday to Yooouuu!!
:-)
You guys are too funny. I'll be more than happy to call you folks to get you up on Saturday! Don't want you to miss seeing the early AM visit of Lib and Belle! Just let me know, I'll have been up hours by that time..........
Too funny.
All have a great eagle/panda day. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
I think someone put something in Tai's panda water/food. He hasn't moved for a long time sleeping like a baby "the prince"
Lisa sent me this note with info from one of the BW Rangers:
I asked Tom Miller about the big fish in your vulture photo:
Most definitely a carp. Big one, too.
The drought is drying up a lot of the water in our pools. Well, our pools were already dry for the summer, but there are some areas that hold water at all times of the year, which are now going dry. There are usually fish that dwell in these areas, and most get eaten as the water goes down by heron, egrets, etc. These carp got in there somehow, and as the water gets lower, they use up their oxygen and die. Since these carp are exotic and cause bottom damage, we don't shed any tears over their deaths. More food for the vultures and eagles.
Thomas J. Miller, Park Ranger
Whose this "Jim" who's flying to the far East Coast??
Hahaha... Very flattering, ladies, but this "Jim" doesn't have his retirement act together enough to fly much farther than San Diego right now.
I hope you all have a great time there.
Jim
Norma - you better remember that I have the cane ROFLMBO
I was over looking at the IWS video - Man - what a life Dr Sharpe & Stef have! Doing what they love best!!
Thanks Bob for sharing that info. Oh could we ever use some rain

Thank you Bob Quinn also you have an email from me hope you got it
The WE camera is clear and beautiful this morning, but the other two are not great owing to the fogs.
Jim
Thanks for the info, Bob. Interesting!
They've got a close up of Squiggles sleeping, and it looks like she's smiling in her dreams.
Jim

Jim
JO, THE CLOUDED LEOPARDS ARE BACK ON THE ZOO CAM!
Have a good day, I'm headed for other works for a while.
Jim
Afternoon dear ones, been reading over the blog. Mid term here and up to eyeballs in essays. My Daddy and my dear Aunt loved to fish and told me a wonderful way to fix carp. I just have to share it. Step one: catch carp step two: go to nearest hen house and collect chicken poop. Step three: roll carp in chicken poop. Step 4: Bake in oven 2 hours on 460 degrees. Step 5: remove crust step 6 and 7: eat crust throw away carp. I have heard the other version too. Bake on poplar plank, throw away fish and eat plank. We got a few sprinkles of rain day before yesterday. Not enough to satisfy the thirst of a good sized praying mantis. Please help us pray for rain. God Bless You all and Happy Birthday Belle. love donna
WHOA KIDS!!----It's getting really cool here----temp. 55° & wind is blowing!!!----TAI is sleeping on his back with feet in the air!!!------PRECIOUS LITTLE IMP!!!
A Nature show I was watching last weekend mentioned that the "clouded leopard" hide made into a coat sells for $80,000!!!---Why do women wear fur??
DONNA---You are too funny---I was reading your recipes----on the first one I thought---WHAT?---DONNA wouldn't lie to me--ho!---Yes---I BET SHE HAD HER FINGERS CROSSED!!!!
I wouldn't want to see a naked clouded leopard - without his beautifully marked fur you wouldn't even recognize him... they are still sleeping at the log on the cam.
Yep! Sure does look like Tai is sleeping on his head! lol
Dolly was all alone - Frieda with her now - Dolly is sitting like a real falcon!
Well how about that today is Belles birthday... i am sure she will celebrate... Kick up her heels and eat a great meal... topped off with a cake saying she is 28... and laughter will roar... because we all adore and could not wish her more than a BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY FROM ALL YOUR EAGLE BUDDIES...Now come to Open House and get all the hugs... but best of all SEE BOTH EAGLES WE LOVE!!!! Best Wishes To A Wonderful Friend, Love, Nilla
