Thanks for the new thread, Steve, and welcome back from Connecticut!

paula eagleholic said...

Welcome Back Steve. Hope you enjoyed your time off!

paula eagleholic said...

Where did Jill go?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

EAGLE ALERT, OUR NEST!

MITS said...

wow, just got back from store and another visit

MITS said...

That was a fast trip, Steven.

paula eagleholic said...

I see him!

Was just going to say I guess they did their nest check earlier...although still light out there without the clouds.

paula eagleholic said...

And Gone

Mema Jo said...

Going to be one of those evenings - here again - gone again! lol

Mema Jo said...

This is about the time they had dinner in the nest last night.


It was snowing big time on the Moosewatch.com in Utah a while ago.

MITS said...

what a nice visit:)

MITS said...

Snowing at the OREGON EAGLE NEST

Mema Jo said...

Well the old tracks are covered so that is how we can tell if something has been in the nest.

Mema Jo said...

There was a deer reported by Sandra at 6:02 on the PixController cam in PA

MITS said...

I saw it:)

Jill said...

Paula, had to run to work again.

Anybody seen Dana?

Costume Lady said...

Precious just got dragged away by the scruff of her neck by Mom, but camera does not follow her. So we sit and look at a bare hallway until the camerman wakes up from his Panda Nap. lol

Costume Lady said...

Jill, I havn't seen her on here for a while. Hope she is alright.

Costume Lady said...

She is usually on here every morning when I get on sometime after 6am. Didn't hear from her yesterday or today. Don't remember if she was on Sunday or not.

paula eagleholic said...

Dana popped in real quick on Monday night, which was last night.

She was on here on Sunday, too.

Costume Lady said...

You would think with the money the San Diego Zoo must have, they would have a better camera system than they do. The cameras must me manned by aliens.

paula eagleholic said...

Off to walk the dogs.

Charlie Brown Christmas on ABC at 8pm :)

Costume Lady said...

You'r right Paula, she did come on for a moment to say she was watching thre WVU game with hubby, Ed. Thanks for the reminder.

Mema Jo said...

Now I am hoping that Jill catches what you just remembered, Wanda. I think that is the reason that Jill wanted to get in touch with her.
JILL PLEASE READ WANDA'S LAST COMMENT

MITS said...

Wanda, as far as I know, there is no other zoo besides the National Zoo in DC that has voulunteers that man the cams 12 hours a day. Most of the others are usually positioned by keepers or other staff when they get the chance to do so.

Costume Lady said...

NCIS also on at 8:00. I really like that show (think Mits watches it too). Dancing With The Stars comes on at 9:00 and the new champions will be announced. Hope it is the race car driver. Spice Girl, Mel, has made a career of dancing and singing, so I feel she is a professional, whereas, Helio (sp) was never a dancer or preformer.

MITS said...

you betcha, Wanda, one of my favs, NCIS

wvgal_dana said...

I'm here I'm here sorry everyone. I took the day and we put the doggie in the car. Took him (doggie)shopping. He got a new coat; which he modeled for all the customers in the store. Then we looked for a car seat. Didn't like those. So he (doggie) got this bed with sides blue; with matching blankie and doggie pillow. We went riding up into Pen Mar Park, in Pa.

Didn't mean to worry everyone.

wvgal_dana said...

NCIS is our favorite also. Bones comes on another channel at same time so we tape that one. Watch it later.

Just Vicky said...

Hi everyone! Where has this crew gone today? Seems like a slim thread!

wvgal_dana said...

Hi Vicky nice to see you here. ( :

MITS said...

Vicky, that's because we didn't get this new thread til almost 4 this afternoon, the bulk of todays' stuff is over on Mondays' thread

wvgal_dana said...

Boy you all are right! That hole in the Kent nest looks like it is getting bigger. Oh my...

Just Vicky said...

Thank you Mits!! Shame on me for NOT paying attention to the time it went up! Hi Dana, Hi Mits!

Jill said...

Dana, Wanda and I were discussing getting together to watch WVU somewhere this weekend, wanted to know if you were interested? That is why we were looking for you. Nilla has to work. Is anybody else interested? Wish Norma would come over and join us. Would be fun.

MITS said...

no problem, Vicky:)

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Jill but I'm going to watch it here with Ed. Darn I thought you all was just missing me lol

Jill said...

We were missing you Dana. Wanted you to come out and play with us. LOL

movin said...

Well, what happened? Did we have multiple visits while I was away?

Earlier, after I had closed down the blog, I saw the largest Hummingbird in the nest raise himself up a bit and start practicing flexing his wings. Better watch closely starting tomorrow for the fledging.

This Mozilla browser seems much more stable than Explorer, AND ... I think it has its own spyware filter. I used to get spyware and adware by the gross every time I opened a site, but now when I manually scan with my anti..... software, there's nothing.

Now, I still get a lot when I'm using AOL, especially if I use something on the Internet...like the radio feature, or snopes.com.

I tried snopes with this browser... no pop-ups or spyware got through, but one pop-under was animating away on my desktop when I closed the browser.

Jim

movin said...

Look at Bai Yun and Zhen zhen sleeping front to back next to each other...Bai Yun doesn't have the baby between her paws anymore though.

Think I still like "Squiggles" better by the way.

Jim

Jill said...

Jim-we should have had Squiggles translated to Chinese and sent that in, with all of us voting we were sure to win. LOL

paula eagleholic said...

Awww,,little precious is sleeping.

Pete's is quiet except for the crickets.

paula eagleholic said...

Dana - I just love Pen Mar Park. What a view!

Jill said...

A friend took us up to the rock where they hang glide near Penn Mar, that was beautiful, unfortunately I didn't have a camera with me.

Anne-Marie said...

Hi everybody. I just put a big pot of turkey soup on the stove and now I'm letting it do its business. I will have a good lunch tomorrow.

wvgal_dana said...

We did not go on back to High Rock. Just a Pen Mar Park. Boy was it cold...

I want to go back in the spring and go on up to High Rock. See birds.

MITS said...

Sounds dee-lish, Anne

wvgal_dana said...

What are the eagles at Kent going to do about that golf size hole that is getting bigger??

Anne-Marie said...

Dana I'm worried about that too.there doesn't seem much activity around the nest either but the east coast eagles seem to start earlier than the west coast eagles. I have noticed that in past years.

wvgal_dana said...

logging out hopely see you all in am

movin said...

Am I seeing things? Is Squiggles eating bamboo now?

Jim

Mema Jo said...

Squiggles is moving around pretty well I'd say.

Goodnight Everyone
Peace to you & Yours
Prayers being said for all your needs

movin said...

GOOD NIGHT, ALL/GOOD MORNING TO SUZANNE AND THE EARLY CREW....

GOD BLESS YOU.

JIM

Costume Lady said...

DANA, Glad you are OK. We have missed you in the early morning chatter.

GOOD NIGHT TO EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT

Jill said...

Dana, I will be glad to ride back to High Rock with you if you need someone to go. Would love to see birds up there again.

Suzanne said...

Good morning, world. Hump day. Seems like it ought to be Friday, though. Darn, 2 more days to go.

Welcome back, Steven! Hope you had a good time.

Not too bad out, but cold. 37° in PA, 44° here, but only a little wind so far. Moon is out there, and a few stars, so clear.

Will try to go see what I missed yesterday.

Oh, Jim, I got my Old Man and the Sea book and DVD yesterday. I'll probably start the audio book either this afternoon going home, or tomorrow morning coming in. Perfect timing, current book is almost finished.

Ok, all have a great eagle/panda day. Gonna be another busy one here, and someday very soon, gonna have to move cubes. Have a new government guy, and he doesn't have a cube, so we're all moving and some are doubling up (like some of us already are), and that entails a big cube shuffle. Don't know when, hopefully this week, but then if this network remains as usual, don't know when I'll get connectivity back.

Bai just left Precious, who is half way sleeping on her side and her back, little arms up above her head, she's so cute.

Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

Suzanne said...

Well that was quick. Bai just came back, hugged Precious Squiggles to her and laid back down. She sure loves that little baby!

Suzanne said...

Our Precious Squiggles is trying to play with a stick of bamboo. She tried to cross over it, and couldn't, so now she's sitting there trying to play with it...no, she's got an itch, scratching, that little back leg is just a going! Looks like she has her right foot and arm over the bamboo, and she's kinda sitting, and sccratching her side/back with her left hind foot. Mom hasn't woken back up yet, and Precious is still fighting that itch. But she hasn't let go of the bamboo stick, which is too funny.
Now, she's leaning back against mom...still has the bamboo, oh, now it's over her foot.... she's moving it, but still scratching. Ok, leg down, now both legs back up and we're trying to kick the bamboo with hind legs. She's so cute! Gonna work at this a while looks like.

Suzanne said...

One of the adult NZ pandas is up and pacing. Think it's Mei, cause Norma said Tian has the whiter butt. This ain't so white. Squiggles got tired of the bamboo and is on the move...she's over by the door, and Bai has moved to take up most of the den, and Bai is also OVER the bamboo stick. Precious has now scooted back and is on Bai's head, looks like she may be trying to get the bamboo stick again. What a riot! Mei just went back in her enclosure, and back out she comes. We have different views on both cams this morning.
Oh, looks like Precious may be gonna go back to sleep, she's now laying on her back, but wiggling. Has her little butt on toop of Bai's nose! Oh, she just turned over and is now kicking the wall of the den, but still kind of has her butt on Bai's nose. What a hoot! She's just ready to play, and poor Bai is ready to sleep!
Don't know where the NZ panda went, out in a yard off cam.
Our nest is still MT, but they showed up so early yesterday, I'm trying to keep an eye on it.

Suzanne said...

Bai gave up and walked out of the den. Precious is still wiggling around touching the bamboo. Looks like she's slowing down though, and bet she's go back to sleep in a sec now that Bai has left.
Ok, so that won't happen...Bai just came back and picked her up. Guess it's time for midnight snack. Or a cuddle, but no, Precious not ready to settle down. She sits up, lays dwn on her side, now her hind feet are kicking mom in the face, and she's got the bamboo between her front paws.
NZ panda is back and forth, pacing on and off cam.

Suzanne said...

Bai is a bit more determined than Precious at this moment. Bai has her in a bear hug up by her head, and she's not letting go. Squigs tried a time or two to get away, but mom didn't let go. So now maybe they're both gonna go back to sleep.
Sweet dreams Bai and Precious!

Suzanne said...

Panda in NZ still pacing, and Bai and Precious are still sleeping... nose to nose, too cute.
Did you guys see the snow on the Moose cam yesterday? Looks pretty.
Owl in hotel, came in about a half hour ago, I guess.
Still nobody at our nest yet.

Suzanne said...

Something is on Africam, and I have no earthly idea what they are. They are hanging out and eating grass with the Impalas, but don't think I've ever seen this animal before. Larger than Impalas, brown with white stripes 3/4 of the way down their back and neck. Cam is following whatever it is. There were 2 of them. Looks at least 3 times larger than the Impalas, but they're laying down and some are still grazing, so they're not afraid of it. Strolling back to the other one. One looks like it has a bird riding on it's back.

Suzanne said...

BBIALW...

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD WEDNESDAY MORNING SUZANNE AND ALL YOU WATCHERS OUT THERE. It sounds as if you had an uneventful ride into work today SUZANNE; just glad you made it ok.

It looks like I am too early to see our eagles and too late to see our Precious/Squiggles. Haven't been on lately as I was in a funk once Josh left to go home and school has kept me later nights. Starting to change over for December.

carolinabeachmom said...

Last night, I finally sat down and got all my email caught up, read the last couple of blogs to get kind of caught up, and got cheered up at listening to all the chatter that I was missing on here.

carolinabeachmom said...

I guess I am too late for SUZANNE too. :) Well I think I will go on to school nad look at our nest from there.

WANDA, TIME TO GET UP AND WATCH FOR EAGLES!!!!!! WAKE UP WANDA!!!!

AND WHERE IS DANA? I have to get into the Kent nests and see the giant hole you are all talking about.

All is quiet here as of now.

carolinabeachmom said...

JIM I am on Mozilla Foxfire and love it so far. Don't get as much bulk mail either.

BW MT and no action on Pete's Pond. I'm out of here for school.

wvgal_dana said...

ALERT EAGLES IN OUR NEST

Suzanne said...

EAGLE ALERT, BUT YOU PROBABLY ALREADY KNOW THAT.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Candy and Dana. Had to leave for a minute, just got back. Looks like our Beautiful Belle.

Suzanne said...

Just hanging out looking around. Wonder if Lib is around and that's what she's watching.
Candy, hello again when you get to school. Sorry I missed you this morning!

Suzanne said...

Well, poof, all gone. Nice to see her, though!

wvgal_dana said...

Good Wed Morning Suzanne and Candy.

When I put up the ALERT both were in the nest. I had just a second before came online.

Suzanne said...

2 owls in the nestbox, Jo, when you get up. They were nuzzling a while ago. This is the first time in quite a while I've seen the 2 in there again.

Suzanne said...

Hi Dana. I missed Lib.

Costume Lady said...

MY GOODNESS, I HEARD CANDY CALLING ME. SO I GOT OUT OF BED AND NOW SHE IS GONE.
GOOD MORNING SUZ & DANA.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Wanda. Quick visit this morning, but nice to see a visit!

carolinabeachmom said...

EAGLE AT BW

Suzanne said...

Thanks, Candy! Sorry I missed you this morning!

Robyn said...

Morning Suzanne, Dana and Candy,

Candy I will down your way this weekend.

Szanne thanks for the morning pictures, lately all I get to see are the pics that come in as I seem to have no time to watch cams of late.

Robyn said...

Morning Wanda

carolinabeachmom said...

Back at you SUZANNE, DANA, and WANDA. Missed our eagles but amlooking at BW eagle in school. I have both nests up now in case our returns.

Have Pete's Pond on the other computer for the children to watch also.

Have to finish taking down chairs.

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD MORNING ROBYN. Nice to be able to talk to you too. If you get in my area my home number is 441-1111. Maybe we could meet for lunch or something.

Where are you going to be? I live in Colington Harbour,but use Kill Devil Hills for my address.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Robyn. Was a short visit this morning, only took a few pics. Maybe they'll come back.
Candy, can you get the Africam too? That strange animal is on cam, I have no idea what it is! Neat looking, though.

Robyn said...

Candy I will be more inland at Lancaster SC just outside of Charlotte NC.

Suzanne said...

That animal, or both actually, have small humps on their back, above their shoulders. Wish I could take pics!

carolinabeachmom said...

ROBYN ok, just got a little excited. Charlotte is way to the SW of me on the outer banks. Hope you have a nice time. Take warm clothes.

carolinabeachmom said...

Robyn said...

No worries about me dressing warm Candy, I need to remind Tori to dress warmly as she thinks a hoodie is winter wear.

carolinabeachmom said...

Well it is getting close to the children coming in, so I guess I had better hop to it. You all have a great day today; only two work days left after today.

Safe trip home SUZANNE to your kitties.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING ROBYN
You lucky girl. You have a boyfriend in such a beautiful state. Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy! (the state, that is).

wvgal_dana said...

Welcome this Wed morning Wanda and Robyn.

Costume Lady said...

Thanks for calling me awake,
Candy.

Suzanne said...

Thanks, Candy, and you have a good day with the kids!!

carolinabeachmom said...

ROBYN Teenagers. I can remember my son not wanting to wear a jacket or coat to school; wasn't the cool thing to do. I guess time doesn't stop those ideas. You and Tori have a safe and fun trip. Later gator.

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks SUZANNE. Talk to you tomorrow.

Costume Lady said...

Dana, it is good to have you on here early morning. Miss you when you are gone.

Robyn said...

It is so pretty where he lives Wanda, he has a creek running thru his property but I am guessing it is dry due to the drought.

wvgal_dana said...

Safe trip Robyn.

Wanda how is Karla doing with that cold?

Suzanne said...

Little birds are in and out of our nest, so guess Liberty and Belle went down to the river for breakfast.

Robyn said...

Thanks Dana

Suzanne said...

Adult and Tai both laying on their back eating bamboo. So cute, 2 peas in a pod!

Suzanne said...

Somebody is freezzing, jumping to keep warm outside watching Tai. Good luck to them!

Robyn said...

Eagle at BW

Costume Lady said...

Karla is still not doing well. Seems each time she gets a cold, it settles in her chest, then she coughs until she spits up blood. She is going too her doctor this morning. She should have gone a week ago. She is truly a busy person and it is hard for her to find time for herself. (to go to Dr.)

wvgal_dana said...

I have been keeping her in prayer Wanda. I've been so worried about her. Glad to hear she is finally going to dr.

Costume Lady said...

Robyn, that sounds like my dream property...to have a stream running through it.

Robyn said...

I hope Karla is doing better Wanda, sry to hear she is sick. The weather isn't exactly being kind to us, warm, cold and so on

wvgal_dana said...

CarolIf you see this. Did you get any deer meat yet?

normabyrd said...

GOOD MORNING!!----STEVEN IS BACK---NEW THREAD---COME ON OVER!!!!

Costume Lady said...

Thank you for the prayers Dana.
That should do the trick. I have been praying for her too.

Robyn said...

croc sunning himself on land, he or she is huge

Robyn said...
