Nice to see you still flying around Candy. Hope you get to drop back in.

Moose cam is on.

Suzanne said...

2 moose locking horns, other male is totally ignoring them.

floralgirl said...

Ooh, food fight!! I am so hooked on that moose cam.

Suzanne said...

Very wierd looking bird on Africam. Have NO idea what it is.

Suzanne said...

Oops, that's the second time the cam operator found it and it flew off. Oh, landed in the water!

Suzanne said...

I like watching them too, Megan. they are awesome!

Suzanne said...

http://www.africam.com/nkhoro_cam1.php

Look quick at above link. Anybody know what that bird is?

normabyrd said...

I see the top of the EAGLE'S head at the TEROSO nest!!!----Those eggs should hatch within the next 6 days!!----Can't wait!!---Don't know how we could ever see them!!!

wvgal_dana said...

Doors unlocked for Jo and Wanda to come on in. ( :

Florida 28 degrees yuck

It was really awesome wasn't it Norma? I loved it when they did our flag and the eagle so inspiring.

normabyrd said...

ME CAM is down----I heard the wind howling!!---

Suzanne said...

The tour "buses" have arrived and are watching the zebras and wildbeestes. Impalas are there also, but off cam at the moment.

normabyrd said...

Have you all seen anything but small birds in PA?

wvgal_dana said...

Couldn't get the Atlanta cam to work.

Suzanne missed the bird. Do see the tour vehicle and animals.

normabyrd said...

Hey DANA!!----I love your little "pink" cat!!---Did you watch the whole game?----

wvgal_dana said...

Yeppers I did Norma Ed was yelling go go go

normabyrd said...

SUZANNE---Have you seen PRECIOUS SQUIGGLES this a.m.----Isn't it quiet with out the BONGO DRUMS??-- I see BAI by herself!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning, everybody. It is a balmy 12 degrees in Bluefield this morning and everything is all white!

GO MOUNTAINEERS!!! Awesome game last night. I had no doubt we would win after I saw the eagle flying at the beginning!

Suzanne said...

Morning, Sharon.
Norma, I saw Precious and Bai about an hour ago playing tug-o-war with a piece of bamboo. In fact, if you look, you can still see it on the floor. Squigs lost that one, so she walked out the door you see at the top of the cam. The bamboo is that long piece laying inside right of the door. Squigs has been outside ever since.

normabyrd said...

ATLANTA CAM is showing the usual!!-----'LITTLE BEAUTY' asleep atop the tripod!!----Want to watch her explore & move around!!---All that must happen before 10:00 a.m.---ho!

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' BLUEFIELD SHARON!!---I wrote earlier that when I saw the EAGLE---I knew that was a good sign!!----Wasn't it GREAT to make those announcers eat their words!!! Kept saying WV was out classed!!!! ----WHITE is so COOL!!---

normabyrd said...

SUZANNE---I missed SQUIGGLES again!!---Just see BAI by herself at the table!!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Normabyrd, did you see Owen Schmitt crying on the interview? I thought that was so cool! Andrew got a mohawk like his last month but had to get rid of it for the East River Mountain Town Band concert.

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' DAVE!!----Sounds GREAT!!---I very much look forward to see your new photographs!!!---Thanks!!

normabyrd said...

indiana nesting eagles dave said...

I forgot to tell ya to click on
the nest photo.

Dave

Costume Lady said...

DANA...You have email.

Costume Lady said...

Good Morning Norma...
That was an excellent game, wasn't it? Kinda made up for the Pitt game!

SHARON...There is something special about seeing a BIG,BURLEY football player cry. Lets you know they have a good heart.

Jill said...

Norma-Defensive Player of the Game Reed Williams is from Moorefield. Way to go Reed. What a game. Hubby's friend is from OK. Told me a bunch of hillbillies couldn't beat the likes of OU. Pretty sure we kicked butt. LOL BWW was WILD. And somewhere in the midst of the crowded of blue and gold was one OU Fan. Think he got off the bus at the wrong stop. LOL

normabyrd said...

WANDA---Did you tell the BLOG that when I was in Shepherdstown to see my "beautiful" grand-kids---That we bumped into each other at the video store!!---CARM--(grandson)- --was QUITE impressed by meeting CAPT. EAGLE!! ho!---It was nice seeing you all!!

wvgal_dana said...

Morning Dave ty checked out the new photos. Big nest.

Morning Sharon you have snow on the ground there?

Jill nice hearing from you gal. Glad you was with us all watching WV game. Well sorta we were all together ( :

Costume Lady said...

Yes I did, Norma. They were BEAUTIFUL children. It was really special to see you and Lisa.
Glad Carm was impressed with Capt Eagle; most kids are... (He is wonderful with children).

normabyrd said...

JILL----That was AWESOME!!!----No one thought WV had a chance against OKLAHOMA!!!!----VICTORY WAS SWEET!!----I can't remember our old coach's name!!----ho!--Now it's COACH STEWART!!!---Players love him!!!!----I think I heard the EAGLE was wanting WVU to win!!----ho!!!---I have to stop this stuff!!---I think it's because I didn't get must sleep!!!

Costume Lady said...

Dana, did you get your email?

normabyrd said...

SUZANNE----Forgive us WV people!!!
ho!-----WV takes FOOTBALL seriously!!!----We will all be sane tomorrow!!----You can join us if you like!!!---ho!---I know you like the TERPS!!

Jill said...

Our local boy and two others were here over Christmas for the day. They said heck with Rodriquez we have a bowl game to win. And that appeared to be the attitude last night. I think White said it all "Stewart should be our coach" I look for an announcement Monday.

Costume Lady said...

SUZ...Safe trip home.
Have to get ready to take Mom for her Treatment tody. After a year of pain, this is her last hope. Please throw in a little prayer for her after Sandra's Power Prayer today.

normabyrd said...

LOTS of SNOW & wind at the OREGON site!!!

normabyrd said...

JILL----That was said last night by PRES. GARRISON after the game!!
STEWART is COACH!!

Jill said...

Missed that Norma. Thanks. He deserves it.

normabyrd said...

SUZANNE---SAFE TRIP HOME & LOVE PATS FOR "GYPSY" & HER HOUSE MATES!!---

I am just anxious to get back to the old routine---paper & mail every day, etc.----TIME TO BEGIN 2008!!!---

normabyrd said...

SD ZOO---GAO GAO was on the screen-----Then she went out the door!!

normabyrd said...

Want to see DAVE'S photographs!!!

Suzanne said...

You WV folks remind me of Indiana Hoosiers during basketball season! No worries, I'll just listen tomorrow, but glad you all had a good game. I like the Terps because that's my alma mater! UMD grad. But gotta admit, don't follow them either.

PANDA ALERT. Squigs is climbing!!! She's adorable.

Suzanne said...

Look at her go! What a cutie.

Suzanne said...

Look at her working! HOpe she's careful, can't work those back legs like she'd like to, I think! Oh, she's turned around and is now sitting.

Suzanne said...

Oh, she's gonna climb down! Look at the big girl go!

Suzanne said...

Uh oh, she either got down very fast, or fell! Oh, musta fell, but she's only about 2' off the ground. But there she goes back up. Man, she's gonna take a big panda nap later! She's really working on this.

Suzanne said...

Time for me to hit the road. All have a great eagle/panda day. Squiggles is still trying to climb, but she's slowing down. Getting sleepy. Looks like she's getting ready to take a nap now. She made it up top again, such a cutie!
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

paula eagleholic said...

Morning, all...ooops it's afternoon!

wvgal_dana said...

Afternoon Paula nice to see you came in.

Wanda I am going to kitchen to be with Ed. Will check mail later ty
and I have your mother in prayers also. Hope they help her today.

wvgal_dana said...

In our nest with food!!!!

paula eagleholic said...

OOOOhhh,,,,looks like road kill!

paula eagleholic said...

Looks like Lib is trying to woooo his lady love!

Mema Jo said...

Don't give up Lib - your Lady Love will be there in a little while!!

wvgal_dana said...

hee hee I was thinking the same thing. Maybe they had a quarrel and this is Liberty's peace offering ( :

paula eagleholic said...

LOL - you snooze you lose!!

wvgal_dana said...

Well I guess it is going to take more than a piece of burger to bring Belle to the nest. lol Liberty's got his work cut out for him.

paula eagleholic said...

Maybe she was in the mood for fish!!

Mema Jo said...

Our cam has been freezing up every now and them. Then it goes!!!

Mema Jo said...

BBL Lib is still enjoying his lunch...........

normabyrd said...

EAGLE ALERT!

movin said...

GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE~~

Got to sleep late, woke up late..........

Good to see an eagle eating on the nest, assuming it means the same thing in WV as it means at BW.

Jim

normabyrd said...

That's the 3rd time I have tried to get in----

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' PAULA!!---WELCOME BACK JIM!!---Sorry Jim--I never know if you are getting up or going back to bed!!----SO---I'll just say MORNIN' every time you come back on the BLOG!!!--ho!

wvgal_dana said...

JIM Would you have any idea why my sister-in-law would be on Pete's Pond and everything is showing in 10 seconds. Birds walk then stop 10 seconds then start walking again. Same with water moving. ????

normabyrd said...

I would have loved to have see SQUIGGLES get down the log or up the log!!---She's an independent little thing!!!---Would love to hold her just once!!!

movin said...

Dana, I'll check how it is on mine ... it's dark there now, so I don't have it on.

Good morning to you too, Norma.

Jim

wvgal_dana said...

Jim mine has been running ok I checks days ago when she told me. I don't know what to suggest to her. I did resend the link but that didn't help.

movin said...

Pete's is working continuously on mine, Dana... a thousand bats chasing a million flying insects.

Does your sister have a broadband (high speed) Inernet connection? A dial-up will cause the flow to stop.

Otherwise, she might restart her computer to refresh the RAM (Random Access Memory).

Jim

normabyrd said...

DIVERS--DIVERS----2 or 3!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Liberty just left. He was there for quite a while.

normabyrd said...

ME CAM is still down!!!

wvgal_dana said...

Jim she is on Verizon.

Turns it off at night when she goes to bed.

Norma I see 3 divers

paula eagleholic said...

Lib is gone. I didn't see him leave because 'puter took a crap...

wvgal_dana said...

4 divers !!

wvgal_dana said...

nope 5

wvgal_dana said...

now 6 lol

Chrissy Beahan said...

Goodevening all,

Hope you are all ok and happy,,

Just watching Pete's Pond, and there are elephants there right now

Love Chrissy
XXXXXXXXX

normabyrd said...

6 DIVERS!!---NOW!

wvgal_dana said...

Ok I give up THEY ARE EVERYWHERE !!

wvgal_dana said...

Chrissy I was watching them also. The smaller ones didn't seem to want to leave. Until the larger ones made them.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hello Chrissy! How the heck are ya?

Chrissy Beahan said...

Arnt they lovely Dana,
I can't get enough of them, they are so reagal, and as for those babies,,, well,,, so very naughty, I wouldnt like to be their mum, I think smack on the bottom with a long trunk comes to mind here.

Love
Chrissy
XXXXXXXX

movin said...

Chrissy, I think both elephants are male, and they're practicing their sparring in prep for the rut.

Jim

Chrissy Beahan said...

Hi Sharon petal,

I'm ok thanks pet how are you getting on now girl, better I hope,,

All I seem to have done is panda sit for a long time, what with Betty Boop in San Diego and Princess at Atlanta, and ofcourse I can't forget our very own little bundle of joy Gobbo at Washington,,
and then now and again I pop over to Memphis, but most of all I love my darling girl Mei Xiang, she is so special, one of a kind, I know Bai is a brilliant mother but it's Mei for me all the time.

Love anf hugs
Chrissy
XXXXXXXX

movin said...

Dana, I think your sister would be better off contacting Verizon. There are too many factors involved to assess it here ... age and features of her computer, amount of RAM, etc., etc. Also, it could just be something temporarily wrong with her line.

Jim

wvgal_dana said...

JIm what I am trying is I sent her the Africam link and ask her to watch when daylight. See if there is a 10 second delay. If not I am thinking it is her realplayer which is what run Pete's Pond.

Chrissy Beahan said...

DANA,

The link below is also a link to Pete's Pond, it throught Nat Geo,

if her realplayer is playing her up she might get to it this way,,I hope ??????

Love and hugs
Chrissy

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I just heated up vegetable soup that my sister made yesterday. It is absolutely scrumptious.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Eagle in our nest and something does not look just right?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Is anybody else watching?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I don't see white tail feathers.

floralgirl said...

IT's really windy here again, I think the wind is ruffling his feathers.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Megan, do you think that is one of ours?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, now I think it is. Somebody else came and then left.

Steve Chase said...

We think they're both ours.

Mema Jo said...

I guess it is the wind like Megan suggests that makes the eagle look different..... Best keep watching.

floralgirl said...

Looks like it's cleaning up leftovers from earlier. Again, the wind is really gusting here.

Mema Jo said...

Oh thank you Steven!!

I was going to say that whoever - they knew right where the leftovers
were!

Chrissy Beahan said...

Hi all

SORRY JIM !!!!!!

I missed your comment pet, please forgive my bad manners pet.

I thought the same thing,,, but I think they were playing too, they only looked like young boys to me, but I did wonder about the walking backwards thing !!!

BUT I can't watch for too long with those insects flying past the camera, makes me go crosseyed.

So I go back to my beloved Pandas,,,,,,

Been some lovley play tonight..

Mei up her tree playing upside down, and the son an heir running up and down his tree with his new ball strap,, and little ZZ playing with Bai and jumpping up and down off her big blue cotton reel..
Aint life grand.

Love and hugs
Chrissy

Chrissy Beahan said...

See what you think ?????

Chrissy
XXXXXX

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Just that first impression of seeing the eagle didn't look right. Skeered me!

Mema Jo said...

Sharon - I am still staring at the eagle... It looked the size of Lib but now it looks the size of Belle.


Chrissy - turn on our eagle cam..

Mema Jo said...

Chrissy Beahan said...

Mema Jo said...

wvgal_dana said...

wvgal_dana said...

What is going on at Bai and ZZ cam?

wvgal_dana said...

Buta Buta laying on her back eating bamboo reminds me of when Tai does that.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

EAGLE ALERT - CHRISSY COME BACK!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle eating in our nest

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Appears to be eating.

Mema Jo said...

Well just who do you think it is???

Mema Jo said...

What is the marking on the left wing?
Is it just sunlight shadow.....

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

And POOF again!

paula eagleholic said...

gone

Mema Jo said...

POOF

That sure wasn't the norm place for take off...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Didn't see it, Mema Jo.

paula eagleholic said...

Jo, - I was just looking at that...I thought it was sunlight at first also...looks like more to me than sunlight - sun was hitting the back of the eagle in the pic I have....

Any thoughts, Steve?

paula eagleholic said...

I only have one pic - I sent it to Steven....eagle turned before I could get another one.

Mema Jo said...

I only got a pic of the take off from the nest.. Didn't think to take one of him in the nest......
My pics are in the album......

Going to be meeting Germany Bound crew for dinner...... BBL

Mema Jo said...

Oh yes,,,, Christine's exam shows a
new little gal will be coming into the family in May!

paula eagleholic said...

Congrats, JO

Steve Chase said...

I wouldn't worry too much about the white patch. looks like a few feathers may be gone due to a scrap of a crash or something...

Steve Chase said...

My typing is really bad... try again

I wouldn't worry too much about the white patch. looks like a few feathers may be gone due to a scrap or a crash or something...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Thank you Steve. We are worry-warts!

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Steve! I had to come back to look for your comment ---- Out the door to dinner.........

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Steve. Appreciate you taking a look.

paula eagleholic said...

Look at the moosecam...cow up close

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

EAGLE ALERT - OUR NEST!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

BOTH THERE NOW!

carolinabeachmom said...

Eeagle Alert in our nest. Now 2

wvgal_dana said...

Wow this has been exciting. Glad Steven was here to help us out. Thank you Steven.

carolinabeachmom said...

PAULA That sure is a closeup of the moose cow. Pa. has deer feeding on it's cam again.

carolinabeachmom said...

dOh BTW I want you people to keep your cold air up there in the north. :) It was in the 20's here today with a good stiff wind blowing. We were told not to go outside for recess with the kids.

Some people said they even saw snow flurries, although I was too busy in class to look out now and again. We did have some black looking clouds in the sky that looked like snow clouds.

wvgal_dana said...

You can see ZZ nursing it is a close up of Bia and her.

wvgal_dana said...

ZZ was under something and must have been yelling for Mom. Bai came pulled her out and left her upside down on her back. Now she just came back to her.

deb said...

Can anyone else get into the cam? I can't get it to open.

Mema Jo said...

Thank goodness it isn't just me!
Not sure when it went down - I tried about an hour ago when I got home...
Guess we'll have to look at the moose and the deer.
Dave has some new photos - just click on his name from today... I am just now going into look at them.

There are also some pics from today's visits on the Momster site.....

deb said...

I saw the pics from today's visit and just found one new pic at Dave's, did I miss some? I went to Fort Randall dam today and got some pictures, but I am just working on them now. I finally got some halfway decent pheasant pictures, I hope.

Mema Jo said...

I think the one Dave posted was the Eagle's nest.. Don't think you missed any others.

deb said...

Jo, I am going to send a picture through momsters. Tell me what you think, I can't decide if it is just the way the sun is hitting the eagle or if it's feathers are really that reddish, golden.

floralgirl said...

I can't get the cam page open either:(

paula eagleholic said...

I can't get our cam up now either. Earlier, I couldn't get into the blog to alert for the late visit.

Haven't looked at Dave's pics, either!

deb said...

If you get a chance look at the email I sent. Is it a young bald eagle??

paula eagleholic said...

Deb - Looks like a Juvie to me...their feathers get bleached out by the sun...maybe 1-2 years old?

paula eagleholic said...

Dave - nice nest picture

deb said...

Thanks for looking--I was hoping for a young golden eagle, but the pictures I looked up on the internet didn't look anything like this one.

Mema Jo said...

I just looked at your pic, Deb - I was away from the computer....
I had just never seen any juvie other then darkish brown. I was also thinking that maybe it was a golden eagle but didn't take time to look them up. Whatever - he is beautiful!

paula eagleholic said...

Deer back at PA

glo said...

I had a good day out watching eagles too. I am busy with pictures but caught a cute clip I wanted to share first thing.

"Hi" Drama

Mema Jo said...

Ho Ho! He was getting his talons into a little bit of everything! Glad you had a good day & will look forward to some more clips!

I don't think those deer ever stop eating... Must be corn or some kind of feed right there in front of the cam. I thought we might see the young buck from last evening returning.

Mema Jo said...

I am going to call it a day!

Good Night All
Peace to you & yours
Prayers being said for all needs


Well, Early Birds,
it is already Friday

Costume Lady said...

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT

paula eagleholic said...

Night, all.

deb said...

Night, all. I gave up on the shivering snowman and put on an eagle picture.

movin said...

Good evening...

I couldn't get onto the blog through beakspeak.com or through direct links I made this year, but the old reliable that I made to the blog last year came right through.

I see that Santa Cruz had nearly a full day of the male, K-10, rebuilding the nest ... guess he read the weather report suggesting that we are in for 5-6 days of rain here, and he's trying to get some building in ahead of the storms.

Pete's Pond is mostly a new bloom of yellow flowers over the land and swallows hunting flying insects. There was a shot of a small heron (Green Heron, I think) frozen in place peering into the shallows for a looooonnng time.

The Panda cam in SD is on the ante room, which is lined with bamboo now, but both mother and daughter are in the den ... ZZ did struggle out to the camera view briefly then crawled back.

Jim

movin said...

GOOD NIGHT, EVERYONE/GOOD MORNING TO SUZANNE AND THE EARLY BIRDERS....


Is it Friday already?? You'll probably want to work Saturday and Sunday just to keep the momentum that you've built up going. [;=)}

Jim

Suzanne said...

Good cold Friday morning, world! Bitter out, 14° at my house, 20° here, but again, no wind, so that's a big help.
We made it to Friday. Four day weeks always seem longer than 5-day weeks. Wonder why? Anyway, all have a great eagle/panda day. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
Oh, Jim, saw 2 deer this morning, but far enough off the road didn't have to beep or flash my lights at them. Nice to know they're still out there somewhere! Besides at Megan's house, that is.

movin said...

GOOD MORNING, SUZ...

I didn't realize it was this late, but now that I do, I decided to say good TGIF morning to my friend.

I guess we are going to get some healthy rain in So Cal for a few days ... predicted to be the heaviest since Jan. 2005 ...

Great for most of us, but potentially another disaster in the areas of the recent fires.

I just looked outside, and it hasn't started yet.

Jim

Suzanne said...

Bad news, the FWS sites are down, so that means unless it comes up before our eagles drop by, we won't get to see them this morning! That's a bummer on a Friday morning! It's not local, it's the entire FWS. Error message is their servers may be down.
And the SD cam is out in the hallway, which is covered in a bamboo carpet, but no pandas in sight. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Good morning, Jim. Glad you're up, well, at least I have someone to talk to, but you need to get some sleep!
I heard about the rains, our weather / news is saying that since the fires burned the trees, they're now worried about mud slides! Scary place to live if you ask me. RU going to be alright where you are?

Yes, Suz, I had to come to the blog directly using a bookmark I set up last year. Nothing else would load, but I received no messages at all.

Wonder what they might be up to ... sometimes they shut down networks for routine maintenance, and if that's what it is, it should be up again by morning.

Yeah, I also have 2 URLs, one for blogger, one for the cam. I hope that's all it is, but the gov't usually tries to do that on weekends when there is less traffic, or come to think of it, at night. Guess this is still night for normal folks! I tried our cam, then when it wouldn't load, I tried the fws.gov main page. That will give you a Network Error. Bummer.

We should be alright in this particular area, since we weren't affected by the fires, but a great many areas to the north, east and south of here are in danger of mud and debris slides, if not flash floods.

These storms will be moving east and probably picking up more steam, so all parts east of here could be affected next week.

Unreal, but glad you're going to be alright. Don't know if we're supposed to get rain next week or not. Do remember it's supposed to warm up a lot. Think by next Thursday, it's supposed to be 57 in our area. Do you believe that? Unreal! 57 in Januray. That's a tad warm for this time of year here!

I will be very grateful if the drought is broken and doubly grateful if we do not suffer a lot of slide damage.

We did have some lighter rains earlier, which probably helped a little with growing ground cover.

Jim
