Good morning, it is a cold day in Vermillion today at 10, with a high of 16 expected. BRRR! It is snowing lightly, with 5" yesterday. I am dreading going out to clear off the driveway. Some nice soul did the sidewalks for my neighborhood, so I don't have to rush outside. It is nice that the men of my street like to play with their snowblowers, so I rarely have to do the sidewalk!

normabyrd said...

PRECIOUS SQUIGGLES is sleeping alone in her "dark" den!!!---She was certainly active yesterday!!

paula eagleholic said...

Happy Birthday Cindi!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Beautiful moose!

Both hummers still there!

normabyrd said...

HEY!!---I think they may have moved in----BELLE has gone for food!!

MITS said...

PAULA, you have mail.....CINDI, HAVE A GREAT DAY DOING WHAT YOU WANT TO DO.

Mema Jo said...

Moosewatch - must be the youngest bull when comparing to Pook's comments & pictures. Younger then Bull#4 and I think he is the one that usually is down on his front knees when eating......

Lib really clings to his perch! Maybe Belle will return again....

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Mits!

paula eagleholic said...

Lib turned around and faced in towards the nest, and then he was gone!

Mema Jo said...

MT nest for now

Moose even disappeared! lol

Guess it is time for lunch!

Good Afternoon Eagle Friends and Watchers.

I check the album to see if Belle & Libertys visit today is there.

I do still have to check email.

Late today....did a BIG boo boo....I ate a salad and loved it at Ruby Tuesday. Did I even pay for that last night....never again will I eat a salad. :(

Bob photos are great praying you get in there.

Wanda I love Violet.. ( :

wvgal_dana said...

Wow Paula that worked out great. Got a video of Belle & Liberty's visit this morning. Thank You ! ( :

Mema Jo said...


Link to Moosewatch cam Sidekick checking out the bins again

Mema Jo said...

Paula, Video is great! Thanks! Love watching Belle do mostly everything as Lib sits on his perch giving his approval. LOL

Mema Jo said...

Dana - sounds like the salad (or the dressing) gave you a rough night! Hope your stomach has settled down.. Soup & crackers today! lol

movin said...

GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE, FROM SO CAL.

Showers were a possibility for this morning, but instead we have a coooool NE to E wind. Humidity is not too low yet though.

I see the younger hummer hasn't fledged yet, but it's hovering a bit now. Probably later today.

Now the elder hummer returned ...hahaha.

Jim

movin said...

One BW eagle just returned ... with a nice fish it looks like.

Jim

movin said...

Anybody know about the hole George dug at Kent?? It looks like it might have been covered or the camera moved ... can't see nearly as much of the nest as before.

Jim

wvgal_dana said...

Jo I can't eat salda's; oh my I do love them. But I try hard to stay away. Since I got the new medicine. I decided to try Ruby Tuesday's because I just love their salad bar. Nope can't do salads. That is all there is to it.

wvgal_dana said...

At the dinner at Rumsey I gave away alot of what was in the salad there. Still got sick. Although at that time I didn't have this new medicine. But I now know I can't eat salads again. darn I rather have a salad than a dessert lol Oh well at least I know for sure now.

movin said...

Su Lin is doing some wind sprints during her excercise regimen today.

Check SD cams.

Eagle preening at BW

Costume Lady said...

PAULA, thank you for the TIP on posting on the Blog. I will work on it. Is there anything better than Picasa? I think I recall you mentioning Photobucket.Thanks also for video of today's visit. I think we all know who wears the pants in that family!

Anne-Marie said...

Hi all, got my chores somewhat done and 15 presents wrapped. Still have allot to go. I just wanted to check in and see what you guys were up to. Wish I could go to the Rumsey again.. :(

Mema Jo said...

Hello - I bombed off of here all afternoon - My body just said Do It & I did! Wanda - would love it if your Wanda's Wishes articles would stay on your website rather then just the new items you put up. Is there a way for you to archive the previous things on the blog to be opened & viewed?

Mema Jo said...

Anne- I would not tell you to order the crab again - We would go for the steaks!

Costume Lady said...

Jo, you have got to be kidding. I can barely post my photos on my blog and as you can see, I haven't mastered the wording yet. BUT, you have given me a new challenge. I will see what I can do. You realize that there is not much hope for someone who loses their vehicle in a parking lot! LOL

movin said...

Does anyone know if the second Hummer chick has fledged yet??

They are both being fed in the nest yet.

Jim

Mema Jo said...

Wanda - you will always have friends with helping hands!
The pictures on your blog now are fantastic! Those guys really roughed it - right??? lol

Mema Jo said...

Hi Jim - Don't have your answer. I wish JOE would come in and tell us what his videos show. I am still working on the update of the hole in the Kent nest. I think the camera is tilted upward but cam 2 still shows that hole as far as I can see. I keep looking over on the kent forum for comments.........

Link to Kent forum Nest Restorations

wvgal_dana said...

Jo if you go in on the Kent page and click on manual cam 2 it shows the hole is till there really shows up well

Mema Jo said...

Dana - Click on the blue link in my last comment Let me know if that is the photo at which you are looking..

wvgal_dana said...

Yes Jo that is it. It does show the hole very well. I mentioned it one day I think it was this past week.

Mema Jo said...

I'll be back later this evening...
Stay warm & dry!!
BBL

wvgal_dana said...

Take care Jo. I just dropped in for awhile.

Maybe tomorrow I will drop back in.

Take care everyone

Mema Jo said...

Calling it a day!

Pleasant dreams & restful sleep
Prayers for all being said


This weekend surely did fly right by!

Good Morning Early Birds - Should still be raining!

Costume Lady said...

Yes,Jo...this weekend did fly by. Hope time slows down a little; I have done nothing to prepare of Christmas. Must do that this week!

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE...
SLEEP TIGHT

paula eagleholic said...

Sorry I wasn't around this afternoon and evening...took my son and DIL to dinner and a movie for his birthday.

Good night, all!

Morning Suz!

Suzanne said...

Good morning, world. Extremely foggy out, be careful if you have to drive! But fairly warm, 35° at my house, 42° here. Well, maybe warm is a bit of a stretch, cause it's not gonna be "warm" till probably April, but it's not bad. Love the pic of Lib and Belle Steve posted! Love seeing them.

Have to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to CINDI who had a birthday yesterday!!! Not connected at home, so I'm late, but I hope you had an absolutely WONDERFUL day! Happy Birthday, Cindi!!

All have a good eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

Suzanne said...

Well, our little ZZ Bear started to walk out of the den and mom dragged her back and had her in a bear hug, Squigs couldn't get out. Then mom picked her up to nurse, ZZ wasn't hungry, but seems she's in the mood to play! She's all over mom, and mom's trying to get her to nurse. She's a wiggly little thing! Oh, maybe she decided she was hungry after all. Yeah, ok, one for mom.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING SUZ
Hope you had a good weekend. It is foggy here also. According to the weather report, it's foggy everywhere. 37° and headed for 50°. Going to be around 50° all week. That is a good thing for this time of the year, especially for those of us who haven't done our Christmas shopping.

Butterfly Mama said...

Good Morning Suz and My Mother,
Foggy is when you stand on your porch and can't see your driveway.

Suzanne said...

Good morning, Wanda. Yeah, I still have some shopping to do too. I'm usually better prepared than this, but just can't seem to get into the spirit this year. Hopefully that will come soon! I'm glad it's warming up this week, and I really am glad it's raining! Poor birds water keeps freezing, this way it won't! Haven't been watching too closely, but haven't seen any visitors yet.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Butterfly! Yup, sounds about right for this morning!!

Butterfly Mama said...

Haven't seen the eagles much lately but I kept the SD panda cam on all day Saturday. Dustin and I enjoyed watching Bai, Gao Gao and ZZ.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING MY KARLA--
Oh my goodness, I'll bet it is foggy on your Mountain. Stay put until it clears, if you can.

Costume Lady said...

ZZ is such a little IMP, I could watch her all day!

Butterfly Mama said...

We had awful ice up here last week and had to leave the truck at the top of the mountain. The next day we ventured down an road that isn't used much. Or should I say we slid down. After we stopped sliding and got straightened up - Dustin says "Oh I lost my breath"!

Suzanne said...

ZZ Bear is funny, isn't she? And she's discovered her hind feet, what fun to play with. She wanted to get out of the den this morning, and Bai pulled her back then hugged her. Tried for a whle to get her to nurse, and then she finally did. But she wanted to play! It's so dark now, I think Bai took her out and they're sleeping elsewhere, but I can't tell for sure.

Butterfly Mama said...

I have new fog lights on the truck - so it really doesn't bother me too much.

Costume Lady said...

It's a good thing his "breath"is all he lost! LOL

Butterfly Mama said...

ZZ slept most of the afternoon on Saturday outside in the Garden room. All alone - she was so sweet.

Butterfly Mama said...

Mother - so true! He is usually quite chatty - but he was real quiet for that ride home.

Costume Lady said...

I wish ZZ had a twin to romp with. That would really be entertaining.

Costume Lady said...

Karla, did you see the photos of Lib & Belle in the snow-covered nest? Awesome....

Butterfly Mama said...

Suz - I think alot of people are having trouble getting into the Christmas spirit. It is so commercial anymore. It's not supposed to be about buying presents - but we all fall into it every year.

Costume Lady said...

Karla, check out the new photos that I have on my "Wanda's Wishes".

Costume Lady said...

Yes Karla, we are so busy rushing around buying presents that we don't stop to enjoy the season for what it is. Maybe we need to change the rules.

Costume Lady said...

Time to turn the coffee pot on and the heat up.
KARLA, have a nice visit with Daddy today.

Butterfly Mama said...

Dustin is the only little one left (for now) and he's okay with a trinket.Maybe each group of our families can't draw names next year. We'll see.

I've got to get ready for work. You ladies have a wonderful day.

Butterfly Mama said...

Oh - Mother I forgot. Dustin has a dentist appointment to get a babytooth pulled at noon (I think) but I won't be long. Have Daddy call my cell.

Suzanne said...

You do the same, Karla! Drive carefully!

Suzanne said...

Wanda, I checked out your new pics! Looks like the "boys" were definately roughing it! LOL, yeah, right. Cornish Hens? How cool is that. And love the pic of Gene feeding the deer, too cool. Nice pics, all of them.

Suzanne said...

Stepping out for a sec, Wanda, but BRB.

Costume Lady said...

EAGLE ALERT!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I was just going to say the same thing, Wanda!

Costume Lady said...

SUUUUZZZZZ! COME BACK....

wvgal_dana said...

This makes a nice early morning view. Doesn't it ( :

Morning Suzanne, Wanda, Karla, Sharon and Watchers.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING SHARON. SUZ left a second too soon!

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING DANA--
Yes, this starts our day off right. Just like a good cup of coffee.

Costume Lady said...

I think it is Belle. She's looking over the side of the nest at something.

Costume Lady said...

Hope she comes back. That visit was way too short!

wvgal_dana said...

Short but sweet!! ( :

Suzanne said...

Wow, morning Sharon and Dana. Guess I missed our lady bug, darn. Hope she comes back and brings Lib!

Costume Lady said...

Going to have coffee with the Capt.
BBL

Costume Lady said...

Oh, Suz, did you see "Violet"on my Blog photos? Can't remember if I posted it while you were here or not.

Suzanne said...

The eagle has landed in BW!
Is Violet the deer? I'll have to go back and check, but yes, saw the deer.

Suzanne said...

Yes, Wanda, saw Violet and the deer in your back yard. That's cool! I see tracks sometimes in the snow, but have never seen a deer. The tracks go right past my car and to the bird feeders!

Suzanne said...

ZZBear is back and so is mom and her bamboo!

Suzanne said...

Eagle in nest in Tesoro!!! Cool.
