GOOD MORNING STEVE AND THANK YOU FOR THE NEW THREAD....WE NEEDED IT!

Suzanne said...

Thanks for the new thread, Steven. Did you see our eagles this morning? Still waiting for an appearance in the nest.
Thanks for the heads up, Wanda.
Eagles in BW are sharing the same fish, how cool is that!

Costume Lady said...

Megan, do you make your wreaths inside or outdoors?

Costume Lady said...

Suz, weather report for here calls for a light Wintery Mix and a high of 32° on Saturday; so keep an Eye to the Sky.

Costume Lady said...

Going for coffee. BBL

Suzanne said...

Oh darn, thanks Wanda! Hope it hold off till the afternoon! If it doesn't, no haircut and no wreath for me. Don't drive in that junk!

floralgirl said...

Make them inside in my basement, Wanda. Off to the bus stop.

Suzanne said...

Well, maybe if I leave.

So....gonna go downstairs, BBIALW.

Costume Lady said...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadillac_Mountain....Check this out; it is where the first rays of the sun hits the U.S. in the morning. So, that is why the Maine eagle cam can be seen long before we can see ours.

Costume Lady said...

Sorry, it is not printing fully; but the last part is Mountain.

Suzanne said...

Very interesting article, Wanda. You learn something everyday!

Suzanne said...

Oh, you can see footprints in the snow in the Maine nest. Didn't see who was there to make them, though.

normabyrd said...

GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDDIES!---HELLO--SUZANNE--WANDA---CANDY & MEGAN!!----It's a cloudy foggy morning here in WV---temp. 43°--expected to rise!---SUZ is trying to FOOL the ROYAL FAMILY by making them believe she is not watching for them--ho!--Think HELEN tries that every now & then!!---MEGAN--I am so happy you are working inside---(i worry about you)---REMEMBER LIFE IS GOOD!---ENJOY!

Suzanne said...

LOL, Norma, I tried. Just didn't work, they're too smart for me! Little buggers are AWOL this morning!

floralgirl said...

OOh, that's interesting, Wanda, here you go... Cadillac Mountain

floralgirl said...

Hello Norma, heading out to gather some greens and get back to work. one more week of this madness for me, then I'll have to do some serious shopping! Have a great day, sure do miss the sunshine..

normabyrd said...

The MAINE site looks nothing like it did yesterday with all the falling snow!--Sun is shining!!

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Wanda, Suzanne, Megan, Norma and All Watchers.

Going to check emails.

Suzanne said...

Don't work too hard, Megan! (Yeah, right!!)

Suzanne said...

Awwwww, look at Tai all curled up next to his grate. He's too cute.

Suzanne said...

Oops, morning, Dana. Didn't even see you!

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING MISS NORMA--

Suzanne said...

Got so excited I hit publish twice! Morning, Deb! Soooo cool to see an eagle in the nest, huh????

floralgirl said...

Oh, cool Deb, there's an eagle at BW in the nest and 1 on the osprey platform. Later evrybody!

deb said...

Very cool. I was surprised to see it there.

Suzanne said...

They'res another eagle on the osprey platform! So where are ours this morning???

normabyrd said...

Thanks WANDA!--That's very interesting---I think that one of the things that's so great about our blog!!----We learn so much from each other!!

Suzanne said...

LOL, all eyes are on BW this morning! That's funny.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING DEB...
Are you expecting any of the Ice Storm that is going to hit the Mid West today?

deb said...

Gone!

Suzanne said...

Poof, gone. Sure was nice to see! One is still on the osprey platform.

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' DANA & DEB!!---BW has an EAGLE in their new nest & one on the OSPREY stand too!!----Where are BELLE & LIBERTY??----Bet they are admiring BW'S new nest!!!

Suzanne said...

BACK!!!

deb said...

No ice here, I just looked at the radar before the eagle sighting and there is stuff just south of me. Now that the excitement is over, I will have to go see where it is going.

Suzanne said...

Awww, check out parent panda. Looks like s/he is sunning themselves, and our boy Tai is chowing down on bamboo. Cam is zoomed in, cool pic.

normabyrd said...

The 'LITTLE PRINCE' was sleeping on his grate!!---Woke up rambled over to his BAMBOO stash!!---Now attempting to eat while lying on his back!!---What a "SHOW OFF"!!

deb said...

EAGLE is back at BW!

Costume Lady said...

You know, we have become so spoiled with these cams that I had to laugh at myself. Our cam refreshes every 30 sec. and that is too long after watching the live feeds; then when you watch the ones that refresh every 60 sec., it seems like an eternity!

normabyrd said...

Bet LISA is elated to see that BEAUTIFUL EAGLE still in the new nest!!!----& another EAGLE at the OSPREY post again!!!

Suzanne said...

Looks like today is gonna be an in and out day. Keep your eyes peeled!

Suzanne said...

LOL, Wanda, I agree. Was thinking the same thing!!

normabyrd said...

DANA---I see a head at the CAPE CORAL nest!!

deb said...

You are right about in and out. Back again.

normabyrd said...

The SD ZOO is showing a PANDA--but it doesn't designate which one it is----CERTAINLY ISN'T SQUIGGLES!!!

normabyrd said...

NO DIVERS TODAY!---Screen is black!!

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Deb.

I see while I was into my emails. There was a visitor to the BW eagle nest.
We are going to have to define them maybe as BWO and BWE lol so our fingers don't have to type so much.

Well I did check and BWE did lay their eggs near end of January.

Our nest still needs housekeeping to straighten it up hee hee

paula eagleholic said...

Morning! Look at the eagle at BW osprey

Suzanne said...

Norma, I have Squiggles on the SD cam!
Paula, awesome pic on BW osprey!

paula eagleholic said...

Lisa already has the pic up on BWE of the eagle...

normabyrd said...

A CLOUDED LEOPARD at the NZOO is out!! Eating or chewing on a bone!!---This usually takes a while!! Such a HANDSOME animal!!---

Suzanne said...

I've lost Maine! Can anyone else get it?

paula eagleholic said...

They are watching something!

normabyrd said...

Thanks SUZ!!---I see a little white butt!!---ADORABLE!!

wvgal_dana said...

Morning Paula

Deb I just looked at your pics for Dec 10th. Let me tell you my face was up against the screen. Waiting to see if that eagle each snap shot was going to get a fish lol
Those pics are awesome gal. You need to find a contest to enter. Thank you for sharing.

This is great Deb on one end and Glo on the other end of the country. Snapping pics of eagles just for us to see coming in to feed. Now just how good can it get !! ( :

normabyrd said...

SUZ---I have ME up---but don't have sound or movement!!!

Suzanne said...

I got it finally, Norma, thanks. Don't know what the problem was, but it sure wouldn't come up for quite a while.

wvgal_dana said...

Maine went down earlier Suzanne.

Teroso was down last time I checked.

Paula where is the pic of the eagle for today at the BWE nest?

glo said...

Good Morning all. I have missed you the last 4 days but my I have had quite the awesome experience in my life. Anyway all is gone now and I am back to normal .Except for this ice storm I am now dealing with so no work for me tonight. I will be working to post some pictures of what happened in a surprise way in my life this weekend but for now I will just say nice to get on here and wish you all a Happy Day with lots of wonderful eagle viewing.

wvgal_dana said...

Got it Paula duh I needed to refresh BWE to see it.

deb said...

Thanks, Dana. It was exciting. There were about 10 eagles in sight and 4 fishing. I couldn't decide where to look, so finally concentrated on one. I was on the wrong side of the river, so next time I will know which side to go to, so I can get better close-ups. I am no good at getting more than one eagle to a picture.

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Glo. Have A Great Day!

Can't wait to see your pics. I was just talking about them. See my comment at 9:21am today.

normabyrd said...

SUZANNE---Have you clicked on DEB'S name?----Such beautiful pictures---W/blow your mind!!---Yesterday's is AWESOME---So many EAGLES!!---Great photography too!!

deb said...

I mean when they are flying, I am no good at getting their picture. Just read what I wrote and it didn't come out right.

deb said...

Glo, I read where Davenport was getting ice, so figured you would be too. Hope it isn't as bad as Oklahoma and Kansas.

normabyrd said...

I have busy day--Dr. appt. in Winchester--(1 hr.)--- back for dentist here!!---w/take most of day!---might be in & out!!

deb said...

Sun is just coming up on the hummingbird nest and it looks empty. I wanted to see hummer #2 take off, but see I missed it from Jim yesterday.

deb said...

Turkeys on deer cam.

Suzanne said...

Thanks, Dana, didn't realize Maine went down this morning. And of course can't get Tesoro, wouldn't load at all. Finally closed it.
Norma, I've tried to look at Deb's pics, and from what you all are saying, I'm missing quite a few great pics! But I don't have flash on this (CENSORED)PC, so can't view them. Darn, and darn, and other things....

Suzanne said...

Moose cam is on.

deb said...

Suzanne, I just tried Tesoro and got it to open. I tried earlier and couldn't get it either.

deb said...

As fast as I typed that, I lost Tesoro already.

Suzanne said...

Uh oh, my bad. Good morning, Glo! Glad you had an awesome experience. Norma, drive carefully, and talk to you later!

Suzanne said...

LOL, thanks, Deb. Sometimes it works like that, soon as you post, something changes. I'll try later, maybe it will be back up.

Suzanne said...

Well darn. Our Precious is gone, but didn't see if mom came and got her, or she left on her own. In any case, den MT.

Suzanne said...

Mei and Tian are getting ready to rumble! Tian keeps giving her a wide path, but she's watching him. Oh, maybe she cnaged her mind, he walked away and she's not following. Tai is back to eating bamboo. Uh oh, here they both are again...
will they or won't they?

normabyrd said...

Checked HUMMERS again!!--MT Nest!!

Suzanne said...

Oh, keeper giving Mei and Tian treats! You could see her oncam.

Suzanne said...

Tai is pacing, and the moose that likes to lay down and eat out of the bowls is there. Forget what Jo said they call him, lazy eater or something. Looks like he's gonna take a nap and use the bowl as a pillow!

Suzanne said...

Very foggy dawn in Kent. Cool pic on cam 1.

MITS said...

GOOD TUESDAY MORNING EVERYONE Just remember your maps and see how far out Maine juts into the Atlantic. When I'm at the ocean the sunrise is about 10 mins sooner than when I am in DC.....Lynda White at Tesoro says they are still working on a few glitches with their cam.

MITS said...

also, don't forget to use the convenient pop-up can at the BWE NEST

paula eagleholic said...

I'm sure Tesoro is getting a lot of traffic now!

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning - Blogger cop has been eating my comments - but I am in here reading all your remarks & surfing all the cams. Headed over to emails in a minute.

Keep that holiday spirit in your hearts...........

Suzanne said...

BW eagle just arrived back at BW eagle nest. Can see tail only.

Mema Jo said...

Eagle in Cape Coral nest incubating eggs I would think. Looks to be rolling egg(s)

Suzanne said...

Morning, Mits, Morning, Jo. Welcome Dave!!! We're all a little nuts about eagles on here!! You'll fit right in!!

Suzanne said...

Love your Juvie pic, Dave! Is that the one raised at your nest? How cool to watch up close and personal.
Eagle still in BW eagle...

MITS said...

WELCOME DAVE:):)

Suzanne said...

Awww, look at Tai up close to the glass ignoring his adoring public! Kids are right there watching him eat his bamboo.

Suzanne said...

BOTH EAGLES IN BW!!!!!

Suzanne said...

OMG, how exciting!!! Hope that's our Lord and Lady BW!!!! How cool!

MITS said...

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL COUPLE.

indiana nesting eagles dave said...

Thanks for the welcome.Suzanne
yes that is the young they raised
this year.The adults have been
working on the nest adding more
sticks getting ready for next
spring.

MITS said...

I can't believe how close we are to the season beginning:):)

Suzanne said...

Oh that's exciting! So your eagles stay for the winter too?
Our NCTC eagles stay year around, fish out of the Potomac, and it doesn't freeze. And our Blackwater (BW) eagles also stay. Their cam came on yesterday, and both eagles are in the nest as we speak. Ours usually stop in in the early morning, but think they slept in this morning, then just hit the Potomac Diner and forgot to come home!

Suzanne said...

Oh Mits, isn't this great? I'm excited!!! And lucky Dave! Right in his backyard more or less, how cool is that!

Mema Jo said...

Welcome Dave The picture of the juvie is breathtaking!

Suzanne said...

2 deer and 1 moose, still laying down guarding that feed bowl!

Suzanne said...

Wow, make that 4 deer and 1 moose!

Bob Quinn said...

Question.

A teacher left this comment on my latest gallery:

"My students and I at Lynbrook ES in Faifax Co, Va, love the pictures. They are budding eagle watchers!"

Is there a link I can send her that has links to most of the various eagle cams?

Suzanne said...

Eagle back, and look at Tai laying flat on his back eating bamboo. He's adorable. Well, eagle gone before I even posted this.

Suzanne said...

Bob, Jo can give that to you. It's a bird something, has links to gazillions of cams! (To include ours and BW.) Beakspeak or something, can't remember.

Suzanne said...

Man, sometimes I do remember things. Here ya go:

http://www.beakspeak.com/birdcams/

They will have a blast!

Suzanne said...

BW eagle back.

Suzanne said...

Both in eagle nest!!!

Bob Quinn said...

Thanks Suzanne! Just sent it to them along with a couple of links to some eagle photo galleries. You have to get the youngsters involved early!

Suzanne said...

Look at NZ, panda totally relaxed and sacked out on back laying in the ... well, sun(?).

Suzanne said...

You're welcome, and I agree totally, Bob! I try to do that with my young relatives!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle at BWE

paula eagleholic said...

BWE gone

MITS said...

TESORO IS BACK ON

MITS said...

BUT OFF AGAIN...

movin said...

GOOD MORNING, ALL...

THANKS, SUZANNE. HAVE A GOOD DAY.

JIM

Suzanne said...

Bai is in her garden den eating. Don't see Squiggles. Haven't seen much of her today, darn. NZ pandas are panda napping. Moose cam not updating. Very foggy at Kent, but hole still in nest.
Time for me to hit the road. All have a great eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

Suzanne said...

Morning, Jim. See ya later, Jim! Glad you are getting in your sleeping groove!

deb said...

Welcome Dave! I enjoyed your photos. I wish I knew where eagles stayed year round here in SD.

glo said...

well actually I am not sure how far apart Deb and I actaully are from each other. A couple of states away isn't too bad but can certainly be a challenge in the winter time,

Bob Both the Eaglet Momster Blog linked from this NCTC site and my For the love of Eagles BLOG have very up to date links to eagle cams around the web. My Blog however is only eagles on the left side and the link is here

For the Love of Eagles BLOG
For a classroom this is an excellent choice as I search the net daily and several times a week update this site with current happenings at the nests arount the web, with links to lots of pictures and videos. I have several subscribers to the info coming out of this site.Take a look

wvgal_dana said...

Dave welcome to the Eagle group. I click and seen your pictures. Can't believe we have another great picture taker. Wow are we ever blessed ( :

Bob Quinn said...

Thanks Glo! Your site looks perfect for young eagle watchers. I've passed it along.

Welcome Dave!

movin said...

Everybody has colorful new icons next to their comments ... very beautiful.

Jim

wvgal_dana said...

Eagle in Teroso if the cam stays up.

MITS said...

MEI AND TIAN are playing battle of the pandas.

wvgal_dana said...

The visitors are loving the show that Mei and Tian are putting on.

glo said...

You are very welcome Bob ..glad you took a look and sent it on.

Carol_in_WV said...

Hi, eagle lovers. Seems like I don't get much time lately to get on here. Not even enough time to read past blog entries. It's great to see new bloggers on here! Welcome to all of you who make comments and to those who just read. (Many of us were lurkers for a long time before signing on.) I met a woman at my brother's house at Thanksgiving who is crazy about bald eagles and other raptors. She was unaware of all the various webcams, so I sent her some links, including this one. If you are reading this, Paige, welcome to you too! This warm weather is strange for December. I hope those ice storms don't make it this far East. They are the worst! Gotta get back to work. Bye for now.

deb said...

George is in the Kent nest!

deb said...

Darn, he is gone. I should have taken the picture, then came to tell everyone. He was too fast.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

EAGLE ALERT, OUR NEST!

MITS said...

wow, nelly look at that look it is giving us

wvgal_dana said...

Is she eating or working on nest cup??

Mema Jo said...

Did our eagle fly in with anything
Would seem to be eating....

MITS said...

looks like eating

wvgal_dana said...

I am thinking she is eating.

Hi Jo

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

As a matter of fact, one brought in a fish. I have the pic!

wvgal_dana said...

Yep you can see alittle piece of it.

Mema Jo said...

Hi Dana, Mits, Sharon, Deb & all others

Think it is Belle - the length of her tail feathers......

Maybe her late lunch is still alive..............

wvgal_dana said...

No Jo it is redish color.

wvgal_dana said...

Sharon did you put the pic in the album??

Mema Jo said...

Great Sharon - a fly in with a fish!


And now a POOF!

wvgal_dana said...

Sharon what time was the fly in with fish?

Mema Jo said...

Love the photos of both eagles Lisa put up on BWE........ There are 2 eagles at the BWO platform now....

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Dana, check your email!

wvgal_dana said...

Jo the closest one to cam at BWO has a fish.

Thanks Sharon.

Mema Jo said...

Sprig of pine in BWE nest - by Lady Blackwater I presume!

Someone caught Spirit in the Kent nest yesterday. Hope he figures out how to 'plug the hole'...

MITS said...

must have been hungry...

wvgal_dana said...

Good shot Sharon ( :

Mema Jo said...

The male is sitting on the far back side of the platform while the female is eating

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

He might just plug the hole with George! :)

MITS said...

yeah, George better watch his P'S AND Q'S

wvgal_dana said...

They'll be stuffing soft squirrel fur down in the hole to fill it up....

MITS said...

is that LONESOME LOUIE, at BWO????

wvgal_dana said...

Did you all know that the names of the eagles at Cape Coral is George II and Gracie?

Mema Jo said...

I don't know Mits - I am almost tempted to say it is the Lady & Lord!

Mema Jo said...

George & Gracie --- Oh my that brings back memories........ Ho Ho !

Mema Jo said...

Good picture on MooseWatch Cam...They really love lying in that snow - the deeper the better!

I have yet to catch those wild turkeys....

I think our hummingbird viewing has ended....

ButaButa is in the hammock den room..she is really getting large..

Otter Sisters are out at the NZoo
Fishing cat is actually lying down and not roaming.......

Eagle in Teroso nest

wvgal_dana said...

2 eagles in Teroso

Carol_in_WV said...

Wow - it was good to see Belle - even if for only a few minutes. Also - good to know that the BW eagle cam is back on. Do the BW eagles have names? I can't remember - old age creeping in, I guess!

wvgal_dana said...

I was checking my papers Carol. I could be wrong but I think they are called: Lord & Lady Blackwater.

By the way nice seeing you gal ( :

Carol_in_WV said...

Yeah, Dana - it's nice to have some free minutes to drop in. We're experiencing some staff turn-over at work, which is resulting in extra work for me and my co-worker, so I don't have much free time to blog or surf. As a result, my job duties will be increased, so I may not have much free time in the future either. I'll be so glad when the holidays are over. I'm not a Christmas person. After New Year's Day, I always say to myself "Ahhh, now I have the rest of the winter to myself". I'm really looking forward to watching all the eagle activity starting in January!

MITS said...

2 eagles at BWO

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle at BWO

Been working on broken computer....GRRRR

paula eagleholic said...

Make that 2 at BWO -maybe I couldn't see the other one.

paula eagleholic said...

Dana - George II and Gracie are at Cape Coral Cam 1 - which they are hoping to get up in December. CC 2 is what we can currently see.

paula eagleholic said...

Welcome Dave

How lucky you are to have a nest so close. Wonderful pics!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle up at Tesoro

paula eagleholic said...

Hmmm, has anyone been watching Tesoro? Eagle looks like it is in egg laying position. Well, maybe not....just settling on egg - standing over first..turning....

paula eagleholic said...

Now settled in at Tesoro

paula eagleholic said...

And as soon as I said that, eagle is back up again.

MITS said...

pretty much evertime I can get on, I see her sitting low in the nest.

MITS said...

now up and fluffing, or is that the male that just came in?

paula eagleholic said...

And off eagle went at TES

paula eagleholic said...

No, That was eagle fluffing, then left. Don't know which one came back! I can't tell them apart.

paula eagleholic said...

Beak way open

MITS said...

my tesoro, keeps going off and on

paula eagleholic said...

Yes, it does. Looks pretty in the late afternoon sun

paula eagleholic said...

CC, Tesoro dark now...

deb said...

3 eagles at the West End cam at Catalina.

deb said...

Two left.

deb said...

Now the last one left. I took a picture will see if it turned out, that camera doesn't have the best picture.

MITS said...

racoons at PA

Mema Jo said...

The moose are bedded down for the night..

MITS said...

I never realized racoons were that big, unless the cam adds 10 lbs to them, like TV does

Robyn said...

Good evening everyone

Megan I followed your link to Cadillac Mountain. It is a rather beautiful yet rugged place. Acadia National Park has some very astounding scenery. I would love to go back to Bar Harbor again.

Costume Lady said...

HI ROBYN, It's been a while. I thought you might have moved to South Carolina! LOL

Costume Lady said...

We were up in that part of Maine and I didn't even think about Cadillac Mountain at the time. It would have been a good place to spend some time.

Costume Lady said...

I guess I will disappear along with everyone else. Must be a good night for TV...(only NCIS for me).

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT

Robyn said...

NOOOOO not moving anywhere...yet, but Tori and I will be in SC for the holidays sharing it with his family. Some day we will want to close the gap.

Costume Lady said...

I'm glad you have someone in your life that you care about. So important.

paula eagleholic said...

Hi Robyn - good to hear from you!

I came home and played couch potato tonight.

MITS said...

GOODNIGHT EVERYONE Sorry I missed you Robyn, sounds like the holidays will be fun:).

MITS said...

Good for you, Paula...

Mema Jo said...

I got lost into Christmas this evening.
Good to see you, Robyn! I know you'll have a very merry Christmas!!

Good Night All
Restful sleep & peaceful dreams to all


Good morning all
Early Birds!
