Now Belle is hollering at something.
SUZANNE---I think MEI holds the record for scratching----LUN LUN coming in a close second!!---ho!
With his chest puffed like that. He looks to be saying, "well then do it your way".
I'm not snapping pics just enjoying.
CC I has our chick in it
CC II has an eagle sitting there. Possibly a chick??? Don't know.
Teroso is due tomorrow but good be today or any day.

DANA!!!----Yesterday---I thought TEROSO may have hatched!!----1st time I had seen the EAGLE standing in the nest!!----Then another flew in!----Don't guess we will ever get to see them until they fledge ho!----
WOW!!----It's eerie looking here all of a sudden!!----The fog just moved in--fast--- now it's hard to see across the lawn!!
I think I saw a little hanky-panky going on.
Good morning all. Looks like everyone has already been enjoying lots of eagle action. Great way to start the day for sure.
Time for me to get dressed and head on over to the neighbors. Don't know what I would do without this start to my day. Special people to start the day and feathered friends all around. How lucky am I. OOOOps me and pooches will need an umbrella today, no bother I can handle that. More pennies from heaven. Have a good one.
TESORO is a deep nest and the cam angle is not good.

Corrections can be made if I have something wrong. Also additions to that can be added by anyone.
Looks like alittle more nest material has been brought to our nest.
I think you are right Dana. It looks softer and softer all the time.
BBL
ME CAM IS UP!!----NO SNOW TODAY!!
SUZANNE----Do you think this "freakish" warm weather will effect the egg laying time?---Probably not?????
The 'LITTLE PRINCE' is all tired out!! ho!-----Eating all that bamboo just wore the little thing out!!----The LITTLE IMP is sound asleep----near his grate!!
2 DIVERS!
He always adds to your smile Norma.
I don't know, Norma. Probably not is my guess. Thanks for the heads up about the divers, saw the last of them coming down.
Bai is just pacing! I have no idea where Zhen Zhen is! Bai was carrying her around from den to den in her mouth earlier.
Eagle BWO.
BAI'S & SQUIGGLE'S room needs---"ROOM SERVICE"---It's MT & a mess!!
neat I like the divers too Norma
Feeding time at CC I Gracie and George II
Norma, there was some of that bamboo on the floor first thing this morning, but most of it right in front of the door came from a HUGE bunch Bai tried to fit through that small door! The bundle was too large, and it broke apart. That's where all that mess came from. She was determined she was gonna get the whole forest in there at one time!
Here she comes again. Bet she can't find Squiggles! Bet Squiggles is buried under that ton of bamboo in the den!
Normabyrd, check your email.
That wierd very long fish is hanging out in front of the cam again. Gone now, but he'll be back.
Changing shifts at CC II
And the fish came back and went away cause here come more divers! Two of them.
Never mind, that's the original 2 leaving.
SUZANNE----Is that the long brown & tan FISH!!----That FISH is huge & stays in front of window---which makes it look larger!!----Also notice some of these divers are coming straight down----our old ones swam toward us!!---right up to the window!---These don't!!
Good Morning everyone; Today it's
windy with rain.the temp.is 51
I hope everyone is doing great
today.
Indiana Nesing Eagles----Dave

Morning, Dave. Think we're supposed to get rain tomorrow. Supposed to be warm again today.
Norma, yeah, that's the one. He even gets his eye right up to the lens, wierd looking when he does that.
I haven't seen Squiggles for hours, I'm...never mind, she just peeked out from the den on the right. Phew, I was getting nervous!
Morning Dave
Watching several eagle nest
Maine is windy, no snow in nest. Not raining as of yet.
Both eagles are again at CC I Gracie and George II
SUZANNE----THE "Checkerboard EEL" is back----BIG TIME!!
Thanks, Norma. They'res a couple of them. Don't look to bad from a distance! LOL, it's when they get REALLY close that scares ya.
I just posted some pics from this morning's visit in our momsters album.
Norma, they must have heard you about Bai's area, cause they have dad on cam now! Maybe they're gonna clean all that bamboo!
Can't get the OREGON CAM to open!!-----Yesterday it was just SNOW--SNOW!!---W/TRY LATER!!
SD is showing GAO GAO in a dim light!!----A few min. ago--I saw BAI walk through the messy room!!-----Still haven't seen the PRINCESS!!!
Awww.look at panda cam 1, treats, but looks like the panda is drinking a bottle!
Oh, baby on Africam, zoomed in very close. Ok, never mind, we'll just check the entire nursery! Cool, back to close.
The GRACEFUL FLAMINGOS are out in the sun---preening---I haven't seen them in the water yet!!---Beautiful just standing there!!!
Ok, now they both have treats, but still looks like Mei is drinking from a bottle the way she's holding her treats, and the shape of it. Think it's something that has honey on it. Ok, now they both look like they're holding their own bottles.
BBIALW...
Nosing around visiting different cams today.
Haven't even checked my mail. lol
NEWS from ATLANTA-----MEI had her first BAMBOO POOP yesterday--ZOO states this is a very "important" step!!---She is eating mostly bamboo now---which will make it easier to wean!!!---They have pics of both LUN LUN & MEI----They look like they are almost the same size!!!!!

LOL, Desperate Norma, didn't see them get fed, but have been watching them eat. They're adorable! HATE it when you have to sign in all the time!

DANA---I think SHARON is the EAGLES' AGENT!!---ho!---Don't know how much they pay her!!!!
Morning, all!
Can't believe there is still an eagle in the nest!
UH-OH heading to the left...
In addition to NCTC of course....Keep Your eyes on Norfolk Live cam today:)
Good Morning Quite some busy birds here this morning! I love it when I put the cam up & I am greeted with an eagle in our nest.
Aha - I see she just returned...
Morning Jo and Glo.
Glo when I check Norfolk wasn't up yet. Do you have it up? What link if so?
Anyone get pics of the bonding today??
Belle gone!
They are relocating their nest at Norfolk. When I was in there earlier this morning. Cam will come on when they relocate it to new nest. Anything I missed?
Still would be nice to have sound and live feed at our nest. It looks like he is just sitting there. I am sure he is turning his head more than we can see with the refresh time.
One can only wish and hope...
Belle gone. Nice of her to stop by again.
Mei is climbing a tree, and coming down it backwards. Now she's scratching her butt on a branch, too funny.
MORNIN' JO & PAULA!!-----JO---If you had checked in most any time this a.m.----there would have been an EAGLE in the nest!!---I was greeted by BELLE--(i think)!!---ISN'T IT A NICE CUSTOM---Being greeted every a.m. by a member of the ROYAL COUPLE!!----WHOA!---LIFE IS GOOD!!
Mei is running and climbing all over the place. Good thing Tian isn't in there, she's in a very playful mood!
Yes Dana it isn't exactly up yet but it is being worked on stuck at the moment...so do keep an eye on it today.
put
http://beloint-wvec-push2.wm.llnwd.net/beloint_wvec_push2
Into Open Url in either Real Player or Windows Media Player
OMG, standing on our head in the tree! She's funny!
SUZANNE---She's as much fun to watch as PRECIOUS SQUIGGLES!! ho!
So, GLO - does that mean it is up, or will be up later today? It is certainly not on for me either...
She sure is, Norma. She's down one tree, ran to the next and up it in no time at all! She sure has a lot of energy this morning! Oh, here she comes back down. Wonder where we're off to now?
Morning Jo and Paula! Mei is in a mood this morning!
Oh, let's try this tree...
Moose cam is on. 3 there now.
NEVERMIND GLO - I FIGURED IT OUT MYSELF...
Dana - Put this link directly into your WMP - I see they are working on the cam....

Copy and paste = the cam is pointed to the sky currently.
Man, somebody gave her too much coffee this morning! Gonna have to go to decaf!
One in the nest, one on the branch to the right at CC
SUZ!---You mean WITCH MEI?---Don't tell HELEN I said that!!!!!--DIDN'T MEAN IT!!!!!!!
I think the ZOO workers need to check her chart!!---I think she has been hittin' the bottle!!---She is FUNNY!!
It means keep an eye on it they are working on it.
Hopefully will be up and running very soon. Same url as last year if you used real Player or Windows Media Player. I never can get the other page to load in my computer at home .
LOL, all that running and climbing made her hot, Mei had to take a short dip in the pool to cool off!
Good Morning all. It is cool and cloudy here today, only 27. I wish we could get some of your warmth. The good thing about it being colder, the dogs don't sink into the snow anymore. It is hard enough for the to walk across the top!! You can always find a positive if you look hard enough. (HA)
Oh my, now it's Tai's turn. He was running around a sec ago. Hum, wonder what was in those treats they both got earlier!
Ahhh, the Ray Charles dance!
Did you Redskins fans see that Joe Gibbs resigned??
Oh, a turn! Aren't we fancy???
Morning, Deb! Mei has a lot of energy this morning, running, climbing trees, swimming. Somebody finally gave her a carrot, so she's slowed down a tad! Hilarious to watch!
Oh, I did go look at your 3 pics of the blond raptor. Beautiful pics! I still think it may be a Golden, but what do I know.
So far from experts, it is 2-2. How can we know when the experts can't agree? Whatever it is,I am lucky to have been able to see it and get a picture of it.
Oh switching out cam 1 with both Mei and Tian. They've both got treats, but in different containers. Tain is rolling his, Mei is laying on her back shaking them out in her mouth. Nice to see Tian for a change.
Tai is running around...
Eagle turning eggs in Tesoro. Or feeding???
LOL, you sure are, Deb. Guess if the experts can't agree, you can say it's whatever you want it to be!
Tesoro eagle still standing doing something in the nest.
I am wondering if something is happening at the Tesora nest today. The eagle is sitting up higher in the nest and one of them brought in some fluff. The fluff didn't make the nest yet, it is hanging from the top of the branch outcrop on the left.
Just put Sharon's Hanky Panky picture of Lib & Belle from this morning into the Momster Album.
MORNIN' DEB!!---SORRY you aren't getting any of this warm weather---we broke a record yesterday---in the 70s!!---I am not a REDSKIN fan---but lots of the bloggers are!!---I have been a DALLAS fan too many years---I had read he might resign!!---We have seen our EAGLES in the nest---several times---this a.m.---THAT'S A GOOD THING!! ho!
DEB----I thought something was happening yesterday!!---I saw the EAGLE standing---I had never seen that before!!----They are due 1/9---
COOL JO!!---SHARON sent me a copy!!
I got on to see the end of the last visit, but have been doing laundry, etc, so just getting time to visit. It isn't so bad being in the 30's, much better than the single digits we were having. We can put away our heavy coats for awhile.
Dern...have a mandatory meeting that just came up. Goes till 12, so I'm gonna say have a good eagle/panda day. Blog tomorrow.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
Safe trip home after your meeting!
Oregon cam is still down, maybe it is covered with snow!
Deb - I have another expert that says your eagle pic is a juvie bald eagle...LOL...Well, I guess you know it's an EAGLE!!
Tesoro - Seems like Mom sits high and Dad sits low....up now.
Wow, Mom just called for Dad...he flew in...she took off with a big hunk of fiush
Eagle at BWO & BWE - 1 each
Hmmm, eagle left BWO now 2 at BWE
Errands later
DEB---I checked the OREGON cam yesterday!!!---It was beautiful---I bet the pine twigs had a couple of inches of SNOW!!---Couldn't guess how deep it was in the nest!!----Wouldn't open for me today!!!!
GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE...
In case you don't know there's an eagle at BWE nest.
JIM
I have a lunch date----later!
SAFE JOURNEY HOME SUZANNE---LOVE TO THE LITTLE ONES!!!
Close up of ZZ climbing tree now.
Jim
Yes, that looked like some Hanky Panky this morning...
Hmmm they were just zooming out at Tesoro...now eagle flew back onto the nest...
Just to add some more confusion to the eagle question, I sent the picture to the Minnesota Raptor Center and to the National Eagle Foundation. We will see if I get an answer. The National Wildlife Refuge here in SD hasn't bothered to answer me.
Lightening and T-storms at Pete's Pond in the early evening hours.
Jim
Deb, is your picture on momsters, or do you have a link to it?
Jim
Click on Deb's avatar and go into
her blog
Thanks, Jo. Have you heard anything new from the Kent people lately?
George was just in the nest. I snapped a picture, so will try to send it out.
I sent picture of George through e-mail.
Deb - Here is the detailed response on your Picture that I submitted to the expert I was talking about. He said the bird was a "sub-adult"
A sub-adult is not a juvenile.
Juvenile Balds are almost dark brown/black on the top side of the contour and flight feathers. The same as when they fledge. Sub-adults can range from the juvenile coloration to varying degrees of tan especially the contours.
To me the photoed bird has a mix of tan on the contours and flight feathers. Goldens only have "golden" plumage on their "mane". The length of the bill and the leg plumage doesn't appear to be Golden in nature either. Bill
Placed your "George" pic over on the Kent Forum, Deb.
Link to Kent Forum
Thanks, Mema Jo. I viewed the beautiful bird Deb snapped, read what I could in Wikipedia....
It is a "Surfer Bird" with a bleach job. I am sure of this.
Jim
Jim, I love your idea!! It fits perfectly! Thanks again, Jo. Thanks Paula, I will add your guys opinion to the rest!
LOL, Jim. Good Description!
Seriously, I think it is an unusual "blond phase" of the immature Bald Eagle.
The size and shape of the head and beak, and the fact that the top head feathers are not at least as light as the back and wings make it a Bald Eagle. Plus if you look at it without thinking of the blond feathers, everything about the size and shape of the bird says Bald Eagle.
It could be "going Hollywood" next summer...watching too much TV you know.
[:=)}
Jim
A bald eagle makes the most sense, but I find it funny that the experts can't even decide which it is for sure. It leaves it open for debate. Gotta get going. BBL.
Mema Jo, have you heard anything from Kent about whether the eagle pair (Starr and what?) are now working the nest, or whether they have shifted to another nest??
Also, the cams and computers obviously need some attention ...even the ones that do still focus on the nest don't cover it very well. Have you heard of plans to bring them back into the good condition they had last year?
Jim
JIM You had me looking all over the web for a Surfer Bird! LOL Jokes on gullible me!
Kent Nest - the last Spirit & Starr were seen was in OCT. I will email Loraine for any update - in Nov she had said she would hear them in the early morning hours.
I sent the email to Loraine and Garry at the Kent nest. I'll get their reply out to everyone.
Thanks, Mema Jo. I haven't been watching Kent much lately, because I can't see anything this year.
Jim
Both eagles have landed at the BWE nest!
Jim
BW couple is also a beautiful pair!
Must be warm at CC1 today....parent shading chick(s)
Both flew out at BWE.
And I need to take care of business...
Talk to you all later.
Jim
OK Out of here for awhile.
Preparing last meal for my kids who are going to Germany.
Word on Sgt Ryan's latest call home
Regrettably, they have lost a soldier in a mission 2 days ago-Not
within Ryan’s platoon, but w/in Alpha Company, close enough. Ryan was doing well, and he sounded so, but said the new guys were pretty shaken up.After a debriefing, he said he sent them to their rooms to clean, which was way to give them some time to process, but a job to keep them busy.They are headed right back out today-Ryan sends his thanks and appreciation for all of the boxes, letters and e-mails of love, care and support that have been sent.It has been deeply appreciated by Ryan, his platoon and all of Alpha Company
I think I read on another forum that an adult had been at Kent recently....brb
Here is picture from Jan 3 on Maine forum of eagle at Kent. Not sure which eagle it was.
Main Forum
Both parents feeding at CC! - ONe rips off pieces, Gives to other parent, then parent feeds chick
That was Starr - The main concern is the whereabouts of Spirit. The pair hasn't been seen together since Oct. Since this is the last nest to have eggs I hope there is still time for him to show.
Thanks, Jo.
Parent very restless at CC2
I see 2 chicks at CC1!!!!
Cape Coral 2 chick pic
PAULA, way to go!! Wonderful photo of CC babies.
Woo Hoo
2 little bobble heads
Good Going Paula
I think we may have a chick at CC2 also.
Well if they have another one then my guess is no good since I guessed two chicks for there. lol
Great pic Paula....
Glo's video and music is awesome. You must go and check the eagles out
http://fortheloveofeagles.blogspot.com/
