I'll just have me some more WAX

paula eagleholic said...

Ha, missed it!

paula eagleholic said...

All yours, Jill.

paula eagleholic said...

Aha, they found them...lunchtime in OZ :)

floralgirl said...

mosquito eaters?

paula eagleholic said...

Yea, those things with 2 wings and big long legs like daddy long legs....flit around

paula eagleholic said...

skeeter eaters

Bob Quinn said...

Do they really eat mosquitos?

paula eagleholic said...

Well I just learned they don't eat skeeters! They are actually a fly!

floralgirl said...

Ok, never heard them called that, I haven't seen many of them, just still have stinkbugs everywhere.

paula eagleholic said...

No stinky bugs here! Just skeeter eaters!

paula eagleholic said...

Hope Dolly is fully, has her head against the wall again....starting to look fluffy...Frieda is finishing lunch

paula eagleholic said...

OMG she really is DOLLY NOW!! LOL

floralgirl said...

Ah, they are bird food..lol

paula eagleholic said...

LOL, looks like Frieda is sitting on Dolly

paula eagleholic said...

Has her covered up now....70°, but must be cool, there was rain this morning.

movin said...

Skeeter eaters that don't eat skeeters....

I think everybody around where I grew up thought they were giant mosquitos.

How's everybody tonight?

Jim

paula eagleholic said...

Good Jim how are you?

Yea, they do look like big skeeters.

paula eagleholic said...

Sorry to say Hi and run, but I'm beat. Heading to bed, catch up with everyone tomorrow!

floralgirl said...

I've only heard them called crane flies, but gollywhopper is much cooler..

Bob Quinn said...

Jim - Went back and saw your questions from the other night after I crashed for the evening. I did have a couple of people say the metallic paper gives a 3D look. Personally I don't see it. On the matting figure about an extra 10 bucks but if you intend to frame it I wouldn't bother with the mat. We have craft stores around here called Michaels. You can get a decent frame for an 8x10 for about 14 bucks including a mat. You can get a really nice frame with mat for about 30.

Robyn said...

and I thought they were just GIANT skeeters

Mema Jo said...

Bedtime for me
Good Night Everyone
Peace to You & Yours


Good Cool Morning Early Birds

Robyn said...

Night Jo, guess I am out too.

Night all

movin said...

Thanks for the price info, Bob. I am interested, but I'll contact you through your site.

I just got going looking at your latest pics when my IExplorer crashed...need to get back there.

Jim

MITS said...

GOOD NIGHT

Robyn said...

Dolly is awfully close to the ledge, has me sitting on the edge of my seat

Costume Lady said...

JILL--To answer your earlier question about my shop hours: We open at 10am and close at 8pm.
I won't be there in the morning; have to take my Mother to several appointments. Probably will be back after lunch. Gene will be there. Come on over and look around. We still haven't gotten our main order yet and I don't think we will. Our racks are getting bare.
About our SIGN: Gene called Mrs. Abe on Monday (Knowing it was a Holiday) and left her a message asking if it was alright to put the sign up again this year. He didn't say when. Told her to call if there were any objections. It sure did help. People who don't know there is a shop back here see the sign and come and look out of curosity. Usually like what they see and bring a friend next day.

Waaayyyy past my bedtime.
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP WELL & Prayers for Anne & Family. Hope it's not serious.

Costume Lady said...

Hi ROBYN, I didn't see you sitting there and I walked right past you.
TTYT

Bob Quinn said...

Night all!

movin said...

GOOD NIGHT, EVERYBODY/GOOD MORNING, EARLY CREW...

I really think your pictures from this weekend are great, Bob. Always a pleasure to look at them.

If you haven't read the latest, take a look at the Aussie site again. Greg addresses the heat and disease and natural weaknesses, etc.

Jim

John Grey said...

Hi
Just dropped in to pay my respects and to thank you for your interest and participation in Frodocam.

Bird Girl said...

Hey guys! Check out the comment from Frodocam! I don't know if it was b/c of me or not; I sent an email earlier that gave our blog address in case anyone there wanted to stop by :-)

Speaking of Frodocam and, to Jim's point, the entry in Q&A about the heat, etc., I sent around an email to the Momsters group about it. I'm afraid I was on my soap box, but you'll forgive me, I hope!

Almost 1:15 am here (can't sleep) and 18:15 for Dolly. Parent is on Dolly, can't see her except for a tiny fuzz sticking out from under.

Bob, love your pictures! I still need to look through all of them and consult with my "crew", I'll give you a buzz...

costumelady: why don't/can't you have a sign up all year for your store?

heading off now to have some chamomile tea and snuggle with my "kids"... goodnight and good morning!

thanks again, John Grey, for stopping by!!

Bird Girl said...

p.s. John Grey: glad to see another Virgo in the blog!!

Suzanne said...

good morning, world. Beautiful night out, same temps as yesterday, 65° in PA, 74° here in VA. Somewhat foggy in places though, and we got a little rain last night! Super. Not a lot, but outdoor kitty food was wet this morning, but not floating, so a nice soaking rain.
We have a beautiful pic this morning, wow! Even Spidey's web looks good, it's on the border of the cam! Bai is feeding Squiggles, she came in a few minutes ago.
I have an email in regards to the one I sent to the Frodocam, just says more on their Frodocam forum. Makes for interesting reading, if you get a chance.
And Delphia, did I see where you thanked John Grey for stopping by? How cool, welcome, John. I'll have to go back and see what I missed yesterday...or earlier this morning, given the time difference. Frieda and Dolly are still in color and looking beautiful. Baby is facing cam, looks like she's getting big. That's a GOOD thing! Anyway, read the forum if you get a chance.
All have a great eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

Suzanne said...

Delphia, are you still up? Or did the tea put you to sleep.
Bai is playing roll the Squiggles, too cute. Sure hope we have a visit this morning, cam pic is awesome!

Bird Girl said...

Hey everyone, here's something from the Synchronicity aka Twilight Zone files: MSNBC has a slide show called Animal Tracks (Health>Pet Health>Animal Tracks is usually on the top right corner); I checked it a minute ago and they have a photo of a dolphin with her calf. What's so Twilight Zone about a photo of dolphins, you ask??

The dolphin's name is DELPHI and the calf's name is DOLLY!!!!!

Suzanne -- I sent an email to the Momsters group with the Frodocam forum articles from 10/5 and 10/10 regarding the heat, etc. and this year's clutch. I prefaced the article with a bit of "sopaboxing" from me... Yes, I thanked him for coming by -- it's cool that he did! I sent them our blog address earlier today, don't know if that's why or not...

Bird Girl said...

Dolly is out from under parent right now.. getting big! So plump! Just what I like to see :-)

Suzanne said...

Morning, Delphia. Haven't checked my yahoo mail yet, but will. Glad he stopped by. I sent an email when the 2nd chick died, said we were a bunch of eagle watchers in the States, but didn't give blog address...never thought about it. Jim told me yesterday they posted both your letter and mine on the forum. Cool. But glad you gave him the address...maybe he'll pop back on every once in a while!
Cool names for the Dolphins! Just like you!
Dolly is looking good, isn't she? Cute little fuzzball, but getting bigger! Love that the cam is still in color!

Suzanne said...

Bai is rolling around, and taking ?Squiggles with her. She has Squiggles in her arms. Too cute. Bai looks like a child sleeping with their teddy bear. Course I guess it kinda is...mom sleeping with her panda bear cub. Adorable! Bai has her on her chest, holding her with both paws.
Still have a beautiful pic on our cam, Frieda and Dolly are still in color, how cool is that! Frieda is standing by Dolly, and Dolly is towards the cam sound asleep.

Suzanne said...

Arrrrggghhhh....Lost Frieda and Dolly!!! Ok, they're back, phew. And still in color. Must have forgotten to change it to B&W, but I'm not gonna tell 'em! Oh, Frieda looking up at cam, she sure is beautiful.

Suzanne said...

Dang, knew it was too good to be true. Shoulda kept my mouth shut, Frieda and Dolly are in B&W now, bummer.
And our cam now has psycho lines on it, what's the deal with that?

Suzanne said...

Steven, we had the most beautiful pic I've seen on our cam this season early this moring, now we have those psycho lines and terrible pic. What happened?

BRB...

NillaWafer said...

Good Morning Suz... Just popped in a minute to check the nest and its horrible cant even see the nest at all.... Checked Oz and Dolly is asleep with mom... All is well at the zoo Tai is sleeping... Thats what i am going to do for awhile .. Thanks to John for stopping by and leaving a message.... Have a good day everyone, Hugs, Nilla

Suzanne said...

Hi Nilla. Sleep tight, Nilla.

Bai is nursing Squiggles, Frieda standing over Dolly, who appears to be sleeping.

Our nest is nothing, can't see a thing through those lines, and BW is MT... Just darn.

Suzanne said...

Well, almost time for our kids to visit is they are going to, but sure won't be able to see anything if they do arrive.
Also don't think BW cam is updating, it's awfully dark there now for this time of day. Time is correct, though. Frieda and Frodo cam is very very fuzzy, hard to see the falcons. Very out of focus, darn. So...back to work for me.

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD MORNING SUZANNE, BIRD GIRL AND NILLA. BOY SUZANNE, YOU SURE HAVE AN EARLY CROWD NOW; EVEN JOHN GREY FROM THE FRODOCAM. You are getting quite popular! :)

Just wanted to check in and say hello to everyone and wish you all a very nice day. AND SUZANNE, you have a safe trip home. Your kitties will be waiting.

Saw a pic of Squiggles on the news the other night for the first time getting her checkup. She was talking to the doctors. :) Have been pretty busy the lasst couple of days so will try to catch up on the blogs and emails tonight.

ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!

carolinabeachmom said...

SUZANNE Do I see an eagle alert in our nest?

Suzanne said...

As I said that, someone is in the nest, but terrible pic.

carolinabeachmom said...

I sure do. Just one is there through all the lines!

Suzanne said...

Nice to almost see somebody. Can see the white head, uh oh, now both. Look hard!

carolinabeachmom said...

Two in nest now. :) Happy day for all.

Suzanne said...

Now we not only have the psycho lines, we have half a pic. Oh well... someday soon.

carolinabeachmom said...

It is sure nice to see that they are still here. Have they been making visits this week? Too bad they don't stay the night.

carolinabeachmom said...

SUZANNE are you trying to get some pics? I can't here at school.

Suzanne said...

Pic is improving, both still in nest.

carolinabeachmom said...

Enjoy our birds. Have to get busy. Wish I could watch longer, but can't. Again you all have a nice day chatting.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Candy. This is the first time I've seen them this week.
Getting pics, such as they are!

Suzanne said...

I'll send ya pics, Candy! Enjoy your day with the kids!
Both Lib and Belle still in nest, sleepyheads. And now, just Lib.

Suzanne said...

Pic is getting clearer as daylight arrives.

WOW 2 eagles in BW! Beautiful pic.

Suzanne said...

Hey sleepyheads! Lib still hanging out in our nest, and both beautiful eagles are in BW!

Suzanne said...

We have a decent pic on our cam, and a beautiful pic on BW. You're missing the eagles, guys!

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING SUZ--
Cam cleared up just in time didn't it?

Suzanne said...

Lib just left, eagles at BW were just squawking at something. Nice visit this morning!

Suzanne said...

Hi Wanda, it sure did.

You can have the com, have to go down the hall!!!

Costume Lady said...

Eagle Back!

Robyn said...

Morning Suz, Nilla, Candy, BirdGirl, Jim, John thanks for visitng us :)

Eagle in our nest still :)

Chilly morning and with Tori back home we can sleep a little later

Whoops eagle gone

Costume Lady said...

And she is gone.....

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING ROBYN--
Is Tori back home for keeps now?

Costume Lady said...

Isn't amazing how this system works---That we can sit here and read comments from people all over the world. It was thoughtful of John to take the time to comment to us. This Blog is a wonderful thing for all of us.

Costume Lady said...

The Capt. is up.
BBL

Robyn said...

Taking it one day at a time Wanda, so far so good.

She learned about the eagle train in her WV studies class and is now looking foward to the ride :) we all (mom, dad, me, Tori and the ex) took the train 9 years ago when Tori was 4. She doesn't remember it all that well.

Suzanne said...

BOTH IN NEST, nestorations! Both moving the same stick!!!

Hi Robyn.

Suzanne said...

both dropped the stick and they're in each other's faces. Guess they're discussing where that stick is gonna go! Look out Lib, Belle always wins these discussions.

Suzanne said...

wow, close to cam.

Robyn said...

Actually they learned about the trough :)

Robyn said...

Wanda where is your store, we would like to visit

Robyn said...

Eagle Back :)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Wow, that stick looks like a new perching limb!

glo said...

Good morning all. Nice to see an eagle as I get up today. I see they have both been there this morning earlier. I am happy to hear that and that the cam is working well enough that you can enjoy them. Yep we have hauled a nice long limb up to the nest today for sure; and are holding it donw. It goes right here LOL.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Sharon. That's the stick they both had a while ago, then dropped and had their discussion! Maybe Lib is trying to figure out if that's where he wants it...

Suzanne said...

Poof, Lib gone. Nice couple visits this morning!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

And just flew off!

Suzanne said...

Morning, Glo! Good commentary!

Suzanne said...

Ok, sent pics out, but there are a bunch! Ones after daylight are much better, cam cleared up nicely!

Suzanne said...

something is on the corner in BW, but all you can see is a small black tail.

Suzanne said...

Never mind, just flew off, whatever it was.

Suzanne said...

Bai just picked up Squiggles and is nursing her.
Eagle in BW.

NEW THREAD IS UP

Costume Lady said...

ROBYN--
My shop is 5mi. down Shepherdstown road--pass a little tavern on right side of road (Alto's Club). Start slowing down there and make a right turn onto Gosling Marsh Rd.
Sign on highway shows you where to turn. You don't go very far after you turn. We are third on left. Sign in yard.

Robyn said...

Thanks Wanda, we may take a ride there around 4 if you are still open :)
