The 'LITTLE PRINCE' is outside enjoying his bamboo & this cold weather-----MEI is eating her bamboo too!---

deb said...

Good Morning, Lisa, Norma and Candy. Yes 5 is cold, but yesterday morning it was -5, so today is 10 degrees warmer!

Costume Lady said...

BLOGGER COP GOT ME AGAIN!

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Candy see you when you get back...

Lisa I am taking it as a hopefull sign. Since last year we nor Tesoro had success. Since Tesoro now has 2 chicks/eaglets. That your nest and our nest and others will have egg/eggs and hatchlings.

deb said...

Since we don't have any eagles visiting, I am going to get some things done. BBL.

Lisa said...

We don't do anything with the osprey nest other than make sure it's sturdy and the cam is working.

So if all the sticks blow out, then we just leave it, and the ospreys fill it up when they return in March.

It doesn't take them long to have it filled with sticks again. I guess it's better that way, because then the nesting material is fresher and cleaner.

A first osprey egg should come around the first week or two of April.

Regarding the eagles, yes -- let's hope luck is in the air for everyone. :-)

DEB---PEGGY'S COVE---looks like a picture postcard---it's so beautiful!!

wvgal_dana said...

Wanda we were suppose to hear about Brayden Ed's great grandson on Friday night. Didn't get the call. So I am hoping they call today. If not I am having Ed call his daughter. So hopefully I'll have some good news to spread.

normabyrd said...

I noticed in the paper----ATLANTA, GA has snow!!---Would like to see if BUTA BUTA gets to play in the snow!!----Bet she loves it!!

floralgirl said...

Been standing at the end of my lane waiting for the Eagle Express to take me to Florida....cold here-12°and windy. Glad to see BWE eagle sitting in nest, she looks comfy. Birds here are gobbling seed, just watched a blue jay eating banana, mockingbird was ticked about it and let him know. probably my last post until new thread. I could walk to all your houses and greet you personally and it would be faster than this dial up connection. Have a good day, stay warm everybody.

Costume Lady said...

Can't wait any longer on a visit.
Time to get ready for church.
Have a good day ladies.

wvgal_dana said...

Morning Megan....get in out of that cold gal! Have you heard anything about your internet cable?

Wanda see you when you get back lady.

If I snap a picture of our nest it will be of something usual ( : but I'll be commenting Wanda so you can read about it.

wvgal_dana said...

Yes Norma when we lived in Georgia. They said we had brought along with us from West Virginia snow flurries. The store we were in closed up. They are NOT use to getting snow in Georgia!!!

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' MEGAN---Well just walk on over----would love to have coffee with you!!---I am so upset--I have always had DEER!---never really bothered my feeders!!---Within the past mo.---They have destroyed--broken them---two of my best feeders!!---There has been a housing dev.---20 acre lots--built about a mile up above me!!---I guess they are coming down!!----They have always come down to my house & up to the windows---chewed on the shrubs, etc.---But NEVER have destroyed any of the feeders!!---THANKS MEGAN FOR LISTENING!!---ho!---Needed that!

wvgal_dana said...

I feel for you Norma I really do...I know you love seeing the deer. They are being trambled upon my developing. They keep it up and a deer will only be seen in a "zoo".

wvgal_dana said...

CC I is really having a rough ride in the nest this morning. Picture foggie due to humidity and possible rain showers there with wind gust.

wvgal_dana said...

Well the storm has passed at CC I still a little windy. Foggie/cloudy gone. Looks like no rain now.

Hope someone else is watching our nest to make comments if our eagles come in. I have to leave bbiaw

normabyrd said...

Thanks DANA!---Deer are being pushed out!---No place to go!---I don't want to start feeding them!--Might hang some soap on the feeders!!---Forgot about that!!!

floralgirl said...

Hey Dana- still waiting for the cable company to tell me when they are ready to get cable to my house, hope to hear something this week. Think I can get phone service, cable tv and broadband all from them and save some money . Norma, no problem, you can rant about deer anytime, I feel your pain. Wait until summer, then I'll have everyone over for a cool drink...

normabyrd said...

ME NEST---MT---Some wind!!

wvgal_dana said...

Soap huh Norma never heard of that...hope it works.

Megan a cool drink in the summer and hummingbirds landing on my arm/hand sounds good to me. ( :

floralgirl said...

Geez, Dana, I'll see what I can do.... Soap, if I put that out they would just eat it. None of that stuff works here, only solutions are electric fence and weaponry of your choice. Course there is no hunting here in my development(what a great idea) so bb guns and paintball guns are the weapons of choice. Sorry deer lovers, I feel sorry for them, but it's survival of the fittest in my yard, and man(or woman) rules.

wvgal_dana said...

Well Norma I hope your soap idea works for you..like I said never heard of that.

Ok ladies I have to be gone for awhile. So I be checking comments to see what I missed.

MITS said...

GOOD SUNDAY A.M. EVERYONE Light dusting of snow here last night, rare in these parts....cold today, but not as cold as Deb's place.....puter still running kinda of slow, ...been updating and scanning hoping that helps...have a good one...sorry Candy.....Go Maryland:) Fear the Turtle!!!

grannyblt said...

Morning everyone. It is 3 degrees here, but sunny. I am very thankful for central heating.
Deer emptied my feeder last night too, Normabyrd.

normabyrd said...

I let the DEER eat all they want at my place MEGAN---Just don't destroy my feeders!!!----Now MEGAN if your husband would come over & put my feeders up high like yours--that would be fine!!--ho!---

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' HELEN & GRANNYBLT---GRANNYBLT---You have the coldest weather so far!----But HELEN I bet it feels colder where you are---at the BEACH!!----Did you & husband join one of those "polar bear groups"----We want pics of you all rompin' in the surf!!----ho!----
GRANNYBLT---I don't care about them eating the birdseed---But they "BROKE" 2 of my best feeders!!
I ENJOY THEM!!!

floralgirl said...

ok, Norma, but then you would have to climb up a ladder to fill the feeders. That's the only way we keep squirrels and deer off our feeders, hang them up high and way out from the tree trunks. Hello Grannyblt:) brr....balmy 14° now, sunny and very windy.

MITS said...

lol, Norma, our son is actually doing a Polar Bear event for Special Olympics this coming Saturday, he is going into the Chesapeake Bay, trying his best to raise money in honor of "our" Maggie, and the Special Olymhics...anyone wanting to donate just contact me:)....son always had a dare-devil streak in him.....I will be standing on the beach with rest of family routing him on!!!
