Jo sent these pictures she took today when she visited the base of the nest tree. John was there installing our fuel cell for the cam system.

This was a very special day and John was really doing a good job showing us how the system would work! We just hope he can get to and find the box when it snows! lol John was one of the staff that was out trying to fix it this year in 10 degree weather!
Dolly is right at the edge of the ledge looking out over her domain.
Mr Patience better known as Lonely Louie is still at BW
Kent Nest is MT
On the other thread is a link Jo put in and one Paula put in. Jo and Paula can you please put those "blue places to click on in here for everyone".
Now everybody needs to go to the picture album link Paula put there. WOW Mits, Jo and Roby of course John with the solar panels.
The Momster girls sure represented us all down at NCTC today. GREAT JOB!!! ( :
Check out more of Jo's pics in the
Momsters Photo Album
Dolly is on the move...she is nowhere to be seen!
Jo did you see where on the other thread Steven came in and thanked you all for coming over to NCTC?
Dolly is up on her feet and about!!
Hi Dana It was a good day.
I did read Steve's comment & I had sent him a 'Thank You for asking Us' message earlier.Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Paula just sent out email thru Momsters of the photo album link - I think everything on this thread is good to go for anyone coming online since this afternoon.
I didn't get a Panda Nap - Bet I sleep good tonight-if I make it
WOO HOO! Dolly is back in her
corner again! But it won't be very long now until she is in flight training.
I've decided that that is Dolly's
Comfort Corner
Have to go start the dinner, wake Ed (he got more than a panda nap). bbl hope to see L & B at the nest this evening.
Snow is all gone in Oregon!
HELLO!!!! no panda nap here, bet I crash tonight trying to watch TV. Was a fun day, and all the people were really nice, thanks Steven for letting us come up. I went to the nest about 8:45 a.m., and then back again 2 times with Jo and Robyn, but didn't see any eagles. John was out there with the gnats for several hours, and he did see the eagles around 6:30a.m.
Mits - If you crash, I will fill you in on Grey's and ER :)
Heading home, catch ya later!
MITS, JO & ROBYN, I am proud to know you gals. All Steven had to say was, "would you" and you all said "how soon". We momsters are good people. I know you had fun and good for you!
Thanks Wanda! Like you said the other evening when you noted that we all got along so well and it was because we all valued the same things!
Time for me to have dinner.......

EAGLE ALERT OUR NEST
WOW i was not paying attention and there it was look slike Lib?

He has been found Dana BUT no big time news event! Only a small mention.
i think spideys got a web across the center looks kind of shinny and a small glimer..
EAGLE
Nilla - me too - since 6/26.. He just popped in!
Thanks Jo
Yep think that is Liberty
Still have that wavy like line right thru the center........
Just hanging out like the other night
No, that is wavy cam, not a web
the lines are getting bad on cam.. thru the picture once again
Looks as though Liberty would like to see Belle come on down into the nest
hmmm i dont know now could be Belle sure is big across the shoulders
hahaha are we all snapping the same pictures?
Almost looks like he doesn't have an eye on the side facing the cam. Due to the fuzzy line.
not shoulders chest looking like might be taking off soon
Don't know how But that now looks like Belle.
Gone!
MT
I hit refresh to get rid of line and also got rid of Liberty eekkks
gone
6:37:41
or Belle ???????
KEEP AN EYE OUT I BET THEY WILL BE BACK
Dolly is up moving around !!
Dolly just went back to her "comfort corner" as Jo calls it.
Guess I was hoping for a clearer view when they visited
Nice poem, Nilla!
Dana you and Ed are coming saturday right??? Read above the pies i have made tell Ed he has his big sloppy smooch coming for his birthday..lol
I need to put the AM PICS in that Suzanne sent to me... Give me a few before anyone puts in the pics from the visit a few minutes ago.
Thanx
Thanks Paula i am hoping that maybe the lurkers will read it and think hey this bunch aint so bad.. I go to NCTC and share the good time.. Join the Momsters and eat some of those pies...lol
BACK
Eagle back in our nest
back
Beak open like calling to the other one.
EAGLE IS BACK!
GONE
Gone again
BACK
Do you think they are playing with us
Well we know that the "launch pad" has not changed. Eaglets will see parents coming and going that way they will too.
Back!
GONE
Image is really distorted! Darn!
%@$^%#&%^#& BLOGGER BACK N AND OUT TONIGHT OF NEST AND OUT ONCE AGAIN
gone might come back
DO YOU THINK THAT BLOGGER THING HAPPENS WHEN WE ALL ARE TRYING TO POST AT SAME TIME?? COULD BE HUH>?
Jo the lines are above the nest on my comp.. i see nest clearly but very shinny in mddle glowing
I'd like to be down there right now and talking to Nilla on the cell. Probably telling her ok anyone in the nest? Nilla says, "No". I say, "Your right they both are sitting on branches above the nest." lol trying to fool with the Momster/Dadsters
That is where my lines are also, Nilla but when eagle's head is up in those lines, the whole body seems messed up
I thought i saw spidey movement up left corner on that thin branch.. just a small movement of leg..
Look at the cam ok it looks like a hand in the left corner reaching out and a shoulder left bottom corner... just noticed that... the trees blessing the nest....
I think those lines maybe are from dusk settling in? Then when night light is on...wavy at top...maybe all that will go away now that the fuel cells are in.
Yes, Nilla it usually does happen then.
WOW CLOSEUP OF EAGLE IN TESORO
Are the new cells functional now?
OK, someone is fooling with the controls
Got it Mits
I am bringing my grandaughter Rosa with me on Saturday.. She is 8 .. my sisters are coming bringing my 2 great nephews Julian 11 and Donnie whoes 7 and Stinky Butt Aalehia... who Mits will remember from the zoo... wait til you see her she growed a alot... Roaslinda is coming to with Diana and if my son has no plans i will bring Jasmin too... Full family circle coming to NCTC... i have had the kids over to the tree .. they have seen the eagles fly in the air and in the nest... they are exicted about building a nest...
I think not sure both eagles are in the nest in Florida
I believe so, DANA, but it was not the sunniest day today, might have to store some cells up, wish we had more time to ask John some more questions.
Saw the tesoro eagle, but not quick enough to get a pic
oh my our cam just went KAAAAA BOOMMMM terrible sight hurts your eyes... is someone fooling with it???
Tesoro eagle in other tree...zooming in now.
Looks like they are both sitting on the branch
they usually stay close to their nest at night, which I think is what Lib and Belle do......Paula, caught a short 20 min. pand nap, so hoping I can make it to tonights shows, but thanks for taking notes it I don't:).
Jo not a word from you about the pies??? Hmmmm the Peach pie is especially for you... remember last year you said you loved it... If i can squeeze in making an applesauce cake i am... Dont worry going to cut pie n cake into pieces n a holiday plate and cover... Ya'll can fight about who gets what...lol
Nilla, are you all coming in a bus:)???????
Forgot to say that today they had locked down Musselamn High School in Inwood... something about ashooting or someone with agun in school... MTBR
My sister's will be coming from Hagerstown... I'll bring the rest...
Yes, I think they are near the nest at night also.....early morning and late evening visits seem to indicate that...
So, Jo, did the find the boy alive and well???
never mind ...just found it on FOX NEWS:).
GOING TO BE A NEWS CONFERENCE SOMETIME TONIGHT
Paula How do you get a pic from Tesoro?
Mits - I have a program that can snap pics from video...would you like to try it?
Mits Ed told me he had heard the brief comment about finding the young man safe & sound. I hope they get him one of those tracking bracelets for his safety! My heart went out to that family.
Nilla PIES! Magic word to me
Robyn brought me an Apple pie (so sweet) today and on Saturday I'll be choosing my dessert from your tray before ordering any dinner! Love It!
I've only put on about 20 lbs with my medicine but it is curing my lung inflammation!
Can't give it up...
Paula Mits might want to try it and I know I would love to try it.
Is it simple?
i agree and said before up on a higher branch where they set watching the kids...
Going to work on album
You sending me anything Nilla?
Be back later - I'm a slow worker
since I had a busy day..........
well i got 17 pictures of that visit...
geeezz Jo i bet we all have about the same??? Go ahead and put and ill look if i have any thats different ill send ok...
windy in Oregon..
Jo the earliest i got was 6:28 and they are clear pics before cam messed up
6:46 ws the last time for me
Jo did Glo and Vicky leave today? and from my understanding Anne's plane arrives at 5:30 am in the morning at Dullas? She is heading for a tour of Washington and then on to Martinsburg? Staying at Econo lodge out on 81??? Thats Dana's exit is right Dana? I know Glo said Vicky was taking her to the nest before she did anything..lol
Nilla - you got it.
Glo was going to Vicky's & I think spend the night there & get an early start tomorrow morning.. Staying in Washington PA (?) Friday and then headed down 70 east to Shepherdstown
Saturday morning...
Well she can just look at the nest Sat morn when she get to NCTC for the open house.
Yes Nilla Anne is staying at my exit that is where Vicky and hubby stayed last year. I gave Anne my cell #'er. Also made sure Vicky still had it.
Jo is right for how Vicky and Glo are traveling and driving in to Shepherdstown on Sat AM
Every Thursday night when Suvivor is on I get to see a Panda bear this one was asleep in the tree. I loved it.
Suviror in China
Survivor that's how you spell it.
Just talked to my sister and the kid are really excited... For anyone who possibly is going to come into Martinsburg this weekend to Apple Harvest... Be sure to look at the scarecrows hanging on the telephone poles and signs ... Most are really cute!!! Jill fire works at the park at 9:45pm i can see them from the store i will be working but can see up on this hill ok...
Okie Dokie just making sure everyones got phone numbers and directions... I have seen Vicky in the middle of the road flaggin me down for a ride in Shepherdstown in the jeep...lol Can i say EXCITMENTS IN THE AIR AND HOPEFULL EAGLES WILL BE TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Link to 10/18 Nest Visit

Dolly has found a new place to lay her head!
She sure does Jo....the wall the wall hope she doesn't try walking on it.
Mom seems to be watching over her..
Squiggles is moving around - little legs kicking!
OK - I'm going to take a break

If not back tonight
Good Morning Suzanne won't be in Ed has Dr. Appt. Fri. early AM
Going to call it a day
Good Night Everyone
Peace to You & Yours
Good Friday Morning
all you Early Birds
Good Night everyone... Time to close and head home... sorta tired and legs achey... See ya tomarrow and if Vick took her lap top maybe we will hear from those to travelin chicks..lol Nitersss
Wish I could have made it today JO. Sure you guys had a blast but I was too sick to even drive Joey to school this morning.
The boy has been found safe and sound. They fed him and took him to the hospital for observation. he was within a mile of where he went missing.
Vicky and Glo got directions from me for a scenic route from PA.
I can see the fireworks from my house Nilla. But I will be downtown, friends band is playing at the new irish pub at 9.
Well actualy Vicky hasn't started her traveling yet but I did bring my laptop and am at vicky's for the night. We will be off from here in the morning headed for Washington PA tomorrow. I couldn't get a wireless hookup here at Vicky's for whatever reason but did get plugged into a dsl . Saw all the great photos from today. Looks like a great time and great lunch was had by all.
Forgot. Musselman was on lock down because a student got a call that another student was bringing a gun to school. Nothing found in the school. Other schools were in code orange which means that visitors weren't allowed to roam the halls. (Pretty much though that was the rule anyway, not that they enforce it.)
JILL....Sorry you haven't been feeling well. Hope you can make it to the Open House. I'm not sure if I will be there for the Nest Visit, but Gene and I will be at the Clarion for dinner.
Good night, all.
Hope you feel better Jill.
Safe travels Glo and Vicky.
Wanda - hope you can still make it to the open house!
Good Night PAULA. Not sure about Open House, but Dinner for sure.
GOOD NIGHT EVERONE
SLEEP WELL
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
Wanda, I am working this weekend but will spent as much time as possible in Shep. Shouldn't be too bad Saturday with the parade and all.
Don't forget the fireworks tomorrow night. Nilla-if you would like to join me Friday at Limericks I would love the company. Not really looking forward to it but I promised my friend I would go and see his band play. (He is single). LOL
GOOD NIGHT, FRIENDS/GOOD TGIF DAY TO SUZANNE AND THE EARLY BLOGGERS....
Isn't it great that the kid lost in Dolly Sods was found, and in good condition!
It's prime time at Pete's Pond, but they've got the cam fixed on one Weaver's nest, which is in the process of being built.???? Why?
I saw the keepers cleaning out the Panda den today, and Bai Yun and Squiggles seem happy all curled up in there.
Sleep easy,
Jim
By the way, I haven't read "all" of the comments today, but in case you didn't read the Catalina report today, it has been published and has some interesting stuff in it.
Jim
And now for the super long 'catching-up' post! I've been offline for a couple of days, and will be the next couple of days as well, so....
JILL: "Anybody want to sign up to dissect owl poop?"
Actually, it's owl BARF...they regurgitate pellets made of the bones and fur (or feathers, etc.) of the animals they eat. Dissecting owl pellets can be interesting; usually a drawing of a rodent (or other prey) skeleton is provided, so the dissector can identify the bones and (mostly) complete the skeleton. The owl pellets are collected under the authority of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, because all owls are protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and/or other laws. A permit is required for every individual feather, pellet, body part, nest, egg and/or the bird itself, anyone without a permit cannot collect anything related to a Migratory Bird or native species (check your local Game & Fish office for specifics)! I know, being BARF doesn't make it any better than POOP. LOL!!
And yes, a wine tasting at a day care center sounds like poor planning and zero common sense to me.
MITS: Which zoo do you volunteer for?
I have to get my rear end aligned a lot. My chiropractor loves me! HAHAHA!
ROBYN: Sorry you had to see a dog that had caught a cat. It would have troubled me, too. If only people weren't irresponsible with their pets, we wouldn't have to see things like that. I wouldn't have shot it, though; some people encourage their dogs to chase and attack cats, which of course is stupid. If the cat got away and ran up a tree, it might be okay. Unless the dog punctured the skin, then abcesses will likely develop and if the cat isn't taken to a vet for antibiotics, it will not survive. I hate stupid people.
You mentioned your "cop mentality" in a previous post -- are you a police officer?
I know what you mean about the parents of the autistic boy not being more careful. I don't think it would have been unreasonable to keep one of those child-leashes on him, considering the problems he has.
Isn't it amazing how BIG Red-Tailed Hawks are???
NILLA: My junior year in high school, back before fibromyalgia took over my body, I climbed Gray's Peak, which is a 14k+-foot mountain on the Continental Divide. It was so beautiful! And I was amazed that a small family of mountain goats grazed on the tundra vegetation while hikers came and went, and I even collected some shed fur that had attached to a rock. It was humbling to comprehend that I was standing on the place where water is directed by Nature to the East and West. And the view -- OH! THE VIEW!!! And the cliff -- HOLY CRAP, THE CLIFF!!! LOL
WANDA: Didja get a new rear end yet?? HAHA!!
WVGAL_DANA: Milkweed is what Monarch butterflies feed on, mostly during their annual migration; the sap is poisonous (not to the butterflies), and the butterflies become "nasty-tasting" as a result. (Any plant with white sap should be considered poisonous) That's the main reason why there are so many Monarch-mimic butterflies out there! Just be careful about planting it -- milkweed can stir up serious allergies, and the seeds are attached to a little fluff-parachute so they can float on the wind long distances. Check with your city's master gardner about whether or not it can even be planted in your area.
As far as attracting hummingbirds, if it has bright, trumpet-shaped flowers, it's a good bet that hummers will like it. Popular plants are butterfly bush, fairy duster, aloe vera (yes, they bloom!), trumpet vine, morning glories, lantana (birds love the berries, too!), etc. Your local garden society will be able to tell you exactly which plants to put it for your USDA zone (I'm in Zone 9-10, which can be tough for flowering plants -- they tend to be "poky").
ABOUT DEER: Deer are herd animals, it's true. All Cervids are. Did any of you know that deer used to be diurnal (daytime) animals? They adapted to being twilight- and night-foraging animals because of humans hunting them!
HIDDEN ANIMAL PICTURE: what hidden-animal picture are you guys talking about??
NORMA: the hummingbird feeders that people put out are not going to keep hummers from their natural food sources, and will not keep them from migrating. Feeding while on migration is simply a necessity, not what drives the migration; that's something that's hardwired into their teeny little brains, along with where and when to go.
STEVE: thanks to everyone involved in improving the cam's picture and overall performance. I'll bet when the project was started, no one thought it would attract so many obsessed -- I mean dedicated -- people, and that those people would help support the cam project! it's an amazing thing you're doing, and we're all so proud to be a part of it! I sure wish I could come to the Open House this weekend. Perhaps next year, I'll be able to afford the trip from Phoenix??!?
MEMA JO: why doesn't the FINDING of the lost boy warrant the same news coverage as the search for him? i think it should have been just as important.
then immediately followed by the parents being whipped with wet noodles for not being careful enough with their child!!!
will search & rescue, etc., charge the parents for their services?? if someone is stupid enough to drive into a flooded wash or underpass here in Phoenix, and have to be rescued, the rescuee has to pay for it -- officials got tired of people being repeatedly warned and doing it anyway.
EARTHQUAKES: go to http://earthquake.usgs.gov for recent earthquakes; the main page, www.usgs.gov, has a lot of links to interesting things, too, all over the world!
SCREENSHOTS: if you can't save a picture, or use Fraps to get a picture, you can do a "screenshot" (also called "Screen capture" or "screencap"). Just push ALT + PRINT SCREEN at the same time; this will make a snapshot of the entire window which is currently active. you can then paste the picture into PowerPoint, etc., then save it as a JPEG via right-click on the picture. I can do up a cheat sheet if anyone wants one :-)
OPEN HOUSE-ERS: I wish I could be there with you! I hope everyone has a wonderful time :-) be sure to take a lot of pictures, and someone needs to be designated as my surrogate eater! i love apple, cherry and peach pies and cobblers, chocolate, chai tea, coffee with cream and sugar, pasta, veggies, Angus steaks, breads and good salads. So, someone will have to enjoy for me! I hope to make it next year ;-)
I HAVE A FINCH BABY: a pair of my Society finches have a chick! It was born on the 12th, and has already doubled in size! i've done up a little presentation for all of you to see, i'll send it later tonight.
Have a great evening/morning/day everyone, and be safe on the trip to the Open House!
Good Friday morning, world! Cool pics, Jo! Will have to go back and see if you saw Lib and Belle in the area. Probably not at the nest with human activity, but they may have been in the neighborhood. Hope you guys had a blast yesterday at NCTC. Such a cool place, how can you help not!
Beautiful out tonight, wow, 69° in PA, 72° here already! I had tons of stars, but there is cloud cover shortly after Thurmont to here. Passed Dulles Airport this morning at 3:13, was thinking Anne is in the air, isn't she? Doesn't she arrive this morning? I'll have to go check, but think that's what I read.
Saw absolutely NO wildlife this morning! That's a first, I think. Saw one female calico cat, but that's it, and she was in an area with houses, so she may have belonged to someone. Hope so, anyway.
We have a beautiful pic on our cam, but also have the squiggly lines at the top.
Bai and Squiggles are sleeping, little fuzzy Dolly is alone in her corner, using one of the walls as a pillow. Still in color, and still half way light. Kinda neat!
Ok, gonna go see what I missed.
All have a great eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
Dolly just put her head down, and she's out of it. Somebody said on here the other day she looks like a flattened fuzzy pancake, and she sure does. She also sure likes that corner. See where some of you have seen her away from it, but I haven't seen her out of that corner for days!
Bummer. We have Brisbance in B&W, and out of focus. Parent on ledge, Dolly using the corner as a pillow again. Oh, just cleared up a bit, wow what a difference!
Squiggles is awake and squiggling, Bai is sound asleep. Dark everywhere else.
Tried to add an avatar, want to see if it worked.
Well, guess it didn't. Oh well, back to work, then.
GOOD MORNING SUZ--Not much going on this early in the morning. I have so much to do today..couldn't sleep. Went to sleep at 12am and woke up at 4:45. So I have been catching up on the blog and my e-mails, hoping I would get sleepy and could catch another hour or two. Hasn't happened yet. Can't function on 4 and a half hours sleep. If you hear a CRASH around Noon coming from this direction, it will be me.
Wow, Wanda, you are up early! I hope you get sleepy soon and can go back to sleep. Babies are due in about 45 mins to an hour, if they show up this morning. Not much else going on, even in Brisbane. Dolly was awake a little while ago, but she's sleeping now. Mom is watching her from the ledge, but that's about it. Bai and Squiggles are also snoozing.
Did you read Bird Girl's comments, just above your first comment this morning? She is and interesting person. She sure does love animals. But then, I guess we all do, that is one of the reasons we are on here. We have that in common. I differ with her about shooting the dog. A dog that vicious needs to be put away. Our neighbor has a dog that nearly killed one of his goats and he is still living; chewed up pretty badly one hind quarter. The goat is OK now, but I am scared to death of the dog.
I'm going to make coffee now so I can have it while watching our first visit this morning. Cross Fingers!
Wanda, I just read it. I said yesterday that I would shoot him too, but also said in the next sentence that I would yell at the dog loud enough to scare him to death. I wouldn't shoot him, but I don't know what I'd do. Certainly wouldn't like it, that's for sure. But she's right about one thing, people do very stupid things! I do hope the cat turns out alright.
Wanda, what is in our nest, right in the top of the glare? Kind of looks like a pipe or something, but I hardly think ol' Lib has taken up smoking a pipe!
GOOD MORNING, SUZANNE...
Good morning to Wanda too.
Just wanted to say that and "have a good weekend" if I don't get on-line before you go home, Suz.
Just up in the early morning to go to the boys' room.
Jim
Suz, I'm thinking the object may be something left by the workers. Or, who knows, maybe one of our MOMSTERS threw it up there!LOL
GOOD MORNING JIM..THAT NIGHTLY VISIT TO THE POWDER ROOM IS A KILLER ISN'T IT?
It is raining here just a little, that may delay our visit a bit.
Morning, Jim. I hope that's a short trip and you can go back to bed and actually go back to sleep. Looking forward to the weekend, the Open House is gonna be fun! Maybe next year you can join us!
Wanda, you may be right...wonder if that was Jo practicing her pitching arm????? Or maybe Mits??? Or Robyn? Ok girls, which one of you threw whatever it is into the nest???
Oh, kids should be here shortly.
Wish they would hurry, my coffee is almost gone...
Here comes the rain again.
Hope the sky empties itself out today so tomorrow will be perfect.
I do believe that is the forecast. To rain today and into the night and be in the low 70's tomorrow.
So ok, where are the kids?
Eagle front and center in BW! Beautiful!
Is it raining now, Wanda? I didn't think it was supposed to start until this afternoon. I didn't even bring my umbrella. Darn. Guess I'll use the one I have here at work...it's just smaller. But we sure do need it!
Well that little toot just disappeared! Darn. BW MT. Still waiting for our kids to show. Maybe they don't like whatever it is in the nest...
Frieda is up right next to Dolly.
The rain comes and goes. Not very hard. It is supposed to rain hard this afternoon, maybe even a thunderstorm.
Good morning Suz, Wanda
Sorry I didn't post at all yesterday but I didn't go straight home fom NCTC. I ran into my best friend, took tori for her manicure and when I finally did get home I had my best friend and her daughter over for supper.
Yeterday was an awesome day. Getting to meet up with momsters Rocks :). It was great to see Mema Jo and Mits and to be able to help out NCTC, I feel honored :) (We missed you Jill). It was good to get to meet some of those wonderful folk responsible for allowing us to have a chance to view Lib and Belle. I will never take for granted the opportunity we are given by being able to view the cam. They put time into the cam out of their regular duties and I am grateful to all of them, From steve to John to Scott and so on. I am sorry I forgot the names of the two Ladies I worked with but they were super nice and put up with me :).
It was cool to see Jhn setting up the meth experiment ;),that is the methane gas reserve for the fuel cell, what a process and the ability to go green
Lunch was delicious as usual but way to big, Mits and I could have split the sandwich and still be full, I have half in my fridge and couldn't eat much supper due to that monterous sandwich lol.
The highlight was seeing Jo and Mits and getting to be at NCTC, that is such a beautiful place, I wonder if I can take some environmental classes and/or nature classes there?
Suffice to say, I didn't get anything moved yesterday or last night and I was starting to stress this morning but for what I am paying these guys to lay the floor they can move the heavy things I can't.
Once again Thank you Steve for the opportunity to be user friendly :), anytime extras are needed I am available to help.
Mits did you find the white-tailed deer?
Jo I hope the pie was ok, it wasn't one of my best creations
Eagle back in BW!
Morning, Robyn! Sounds like you had a wonderful time yesterday at NCTC! Wish I coulda been there, but work interfers with a lot of stuff I'd rather do! Unfortunately, stuff I'd rather do doesn't pay too good!
Eagle still looking good in BW, and our kids must be working on their second cup of coffee!!
FINALLY!!! JUST ARRIVED.
Musta been good coffee. May be Lib, but hard to tell through the lines at the top.
Morning ladies:) looks like a day of showers here. Glad to see it, but it will complicate my day, have 6 schools (around 250 kids) scheduled for today, have to wait and see who will cancel. I read Bird Girl's comments, no worries, it is fine to grow milkweed(asclepias) here. The native variety grows all around our area, you can also grow asclepias tuberosa, which is a perennial withy beautiful orange flowers. The variety I sell is an annual here, asclepias curassavica, it usually does not winter over here and it is not invasive. As far as hummingbirs plants, I consider myself to be pretty informed as to what plants will bring them into your garden.
Good morning Megan. we have a new thread. Come on over........
Morning, Megan! Sounds like you're gonna be juggling your schedule today because of the rain. We need it though, and hopefully it will rain itself out by tomorrow!
We have an eagle in BW, and one in our nest, but very hard to see, we now have 2 or more squiggly lines. Jo, not even taking many pics, terrible pic. Looks like eagle has leaves in it's foot.
