We have been seeing a small number of comment spams recently. While there have been less than five in the past several days, that's way more than we ever have had in the past couple of years.
So, I'm going to turn on word verification for a time to see if that stops the spam. This will require that you type in a code that blogger will randomly generate before you are able to submit your comment. We'll do this for a few days and see how it goes.
The next step would be a requirement that folks register with the blog in order to comment. I'd like to not have to do that right now.
You regulars know my email, so feel free to let me know what you think of this. If it turns out to be just a pain for everyone, I can turn it back off.
Sorry for this.

Sounds like gobbelydegook when you press that handicap button !
Thanks, Paula..I love your eagle crossing sign pic, too. I have some other eagle ones, too, but this one is my fave.
I am trying one more time
Ok, I finally made it on. How frustrating. I can't get on at all on Safari, made it on in Firefox, then couldn't post.
Hey There Deb - You're back.
WOW Look at PA wildlife cam
SNOWFLAKES or what?
I was just going to give up, when I got in. that is the first time I had that problem, hope it is the last.
It is really coming down. If that keeps up, Suzanne won't be in to work in the morning.
Karen - I also have a 3yr old in my life - Great Granddaughter- Alexis.
She keeps me hopping!
Buck on the PA cam now
I don't think it is supposed to snow that far east in PA
Big Buck is back!
I think that Murrysville PA is up in the western part of the state..
It wouldn't be close to Suzanne as she is right up Rt 81 on the east side of PA.. I think.. PA is a pretty big state!
That's good. I didn't know where the cam is compared to where Suzanne is.
Road are really snow covered in Bluefield and it's still coming down!
Murrysville is just east of Pittsburgh. Suzanne is near Emmitsburg isnt' she?
mema jo...boy, that is the truth! my granddaughter lives with us and she wears me out LOL! I have so learned why God gave babies to young women and not old ones like me LOL!
Welcome back deb!
Thanks, Karen. Where in So. Cal. are you? My sister is in Huntington Beach.
Suz is nearer to Waynesboro...
Couldn't think of it Paula. Thanks.
I map googled her, so now I see where she is. That is a long drive she does everyday to get to work.
Suzanne is up above Chambersburg - Greencastle that area.
Yes, Karen! She is one intelligent little gal & remembers everything & will remind you of what you said in case you forget! She is like a breath of fresh air! One day I'll tell you about the other 4 grt-grandkids... Ages 6, 4, 3, 1.
Love them all!
I am going to bed early tonight, I am tired. TTYT
Early for you Deb but right on time for me to close down.
Good Night!
Pleasant dreams & restful sleep
Prayers for all our needs being said
Actually, she is right between Waynesboro and Chambersburg...I won't name the town...
deb, I am about an hr. south of Huntington Beach, 40 mins. north of San Diego...don't ask me miles LOL...HB is a very nice place...used to go to the beach there in the summer with my cousins who live up that way.
mema jo..would love to hear about your others. You must have started very young to have great-grands ;-) I tell you I can't even imagine what life with be like now without my granddaughter.
Have a good night mema jo...sweet dreams :-)
Good night, Karen and Jill...gonna let ya'll close it down...

It's quiet here and so I am going to watch tv. Night to those of you still reading. Sweet dreams :) Will be back tmrw.
I have been sooo busy this afternoon and watched Idol and Brothers on TV, so I didn't get a chance to chat and find out what all was going on. I guess I will catch up tomorrow.
Karen must live near JIM?? Tell us JIM...
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS FOR ALL
(Extra prayer for Dana)
I was just reading Karenincali's comments about her location, and that sounds about where my sister lives and 10-15 miles north of where I grew up ... near Del Mar.
What town do you live in, or near, Karen? How long in the area?
[:~)]
Jim
JIM. How hard is it to put a new hard drive into a computer? I have put in modems and memory. My sons hard drive went out and he is getting a new computer so I thought I would put a new HD in his old one for my youngest
GOOD NIGHT, EVERYBODY...
SLEEP EASY, REST WELL, GOD BLESS YOU.
TALK TO YOU IN THE MORNING, SUZANNE AND YOU OTHER EARLY BIRDERS.
By the way, there's an excellent Catalina Report posted today... a lot of new action, new pics.
Jim
Hi, Jill,
I believe it's pretty easy. Get advice where you buy it to make sure it's compatible with your machine.
Make sure you get one with thorough instructions...physically you just unplug the old one (a couple of screws maybe) and plug the new one in. But you might have to format the drive and I don't know what before you load your operating system etc.
On the other hand, it might all be taken care of on your installation CD these days. Then all you would have to do is follow its instructions.
I've done CD drives and such, but I've never had a hard disk drive fail (Knockin on my noggin).
Jim
I went to look for the latest Santa Cruz update and found this. I don't know if any of you have seen it but it is so wonderful what these two ladies did for our Limuw.

Thanks Jim.
Did you check out the link I sent about Limuw. There is also a post about the trip the ladies took. I just sent it out in an email
Jill, is that the complete link? I get an error message.
Jim
Should be. It is included in the email I just sent, did you get that?
Good Night Jill and Jim, that was a wonderful tribute to Limuw!!! I'm so glad they made that trip!
Good Morning Suzanne and early birds!!!
Prayers being said for all....
Sweet dreams

Here it is again Jim. Doesn't look like it copied right the first time
Yes Iris, I had tears in my eyes. But we would probably do the same for Liberty and Belle if we could track them and their offspring.
Is the email on the momsters site, Jill?
Jim
I reused an email Jo sent me. Does that automatically post to Momsters.
If you go to the discusions page where you found the Catalina Update, there is another is on called A-63. Go to around page 16 or 17 and you will find it.
Jim, Jill's mail is on Momsters mail... but just in case you don't find it here is another link...this one is to Glo's For The Love of Eagles Forum, but it takes you to the same place.
http://www.hostingphpbb.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2902#2902
Take some kleenex with you...
OK, Jill, here's a clickable link that works... got it from momster's site.
Jim
Limuw’s grave site
Thanks, Jill, that is a very touching tribute to Limuw.
Jim
Thank you. I went looking for the Catalina report that you mentioned. Found this instead. Went back and found the report tho.
Well, Jill, Iris,
I think I will say good night.
Jim
Good morning, world. Blogger didn't ask any questions, so think I'll save my post before I attempt to post it just in case!
Very cold, and wind down here, and some flurries coming down. 20° in PA, down to 15 enroute here, and up to a big whopping 21° here with wind. Bundle up!
Gotta see what is going on. All have a great eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
Our eagle is sound asleep on the eggs, and it's snowing in Maine. That looks really wierd in the IR, snow is coming down right in front of cam, and looks like bugs flying by the cam. Looks like tree has quite a bit of snow, but in the light, can't really tell. Can't see anyone in NBG either, but that doesn't mean anything. I see they have mating pics up from yesterday, but they wouldn't load this morning. I'll try later. BW eagle is also sound asleep.
Not sure our pic is updating. Eagle should have been up and turned the eggs by now, cam has been up about an hour. Very unusual to still be sleeping in same position. I'll have to go back and read to see if it went down yesterday sometime.
Looks like it stopped snowing in Maine, but still looks like flurries in PA.
Well, glancing back at the blogs, I see the cam was up and down yesterday. Right now, it's down.
Also saw the comments about where I live. Paula, you got it exactly right, and I want to THANK YOU for NOT naming the town. After looking at the new counters here on the blog, and some of the details, I really don't want to post any personal information on the blog anymore. Just way too many eyes are reading this blog! Which is good....but NOTHING is private. REMEMBER THAT WHEN POSTING.
Still glancing back, Jill I went to your link for the memorial for Limuw, and that was very touching. Brought me to tears, but what a wonderful thing they did! Aren't eagle people amazing??? Thanks for posting the link... And Jim for the tiny URL.
I feel like I'm working in the Twilight Zone! 2 of my other 4 o'clock co-workers called in this morning, so I was alone till about 5. Then finally figured out our cam wasn't updating. Now, finally figuring out the BWE cam isn't updating either! Good grief, how wierd. Least the pandas are working, AND MAINE EAGLE!!!
There is an eagle laying in the nest, and one on the branch. NOW HOW COOL IS THAT!!!!!
Oh my, AND both eagles in NBG nest! Rennovating, looks like. Ok, gonna be a good day. Gonna be a better day when our cam gets back up, tho.
Eagle that was in nest in Maine is up and trying to get comfy again. Still quite a bit of snow on the nest. Now standing there thinking about it. Oh, never mind, flew off. And there goes the other one right behind her.
GOOD COLD EAGLE MORNING TO YOU SUZANNE AND ALL OTHERS THAT WILL BE GETTING ON TODAY.
Got up a little ahead of time to see if our cam was back working and to say hi to everyone, since I am blocked from blogging from school now.
It is a windy 29' here this morning at the Outer Banks. Brrrrrr. I had better bundle up for recess duty today.
Both eagles sitting side by side on a branch in NBG. I guess they have made up. Read where there were more nestorations going on and HP. I'm glad the other female finally left them alone. They make a cute couple. One just flew away; hopefully maybe making the gesture of getting breadfast for both. Hmmmmm? :)
Well my NBG cam went black for now, eagle nest in Maine is MT with snow like Suzanne said. BWE seems to be working fine. I just saw the parent eagle turning it's head on screen. Now if only ours would move, Must be still sleeping. At least if it is going to freeze now, it is showing a nice pic without snow and a bird in nest over eggs. :) Everything seems to be working.
Good mornnig, Candy. I had minimized our cam, but see it is up now. Eagle has moved, and it's getting daylight, so glad to see that! But did bring up NBG, and nothing but a white screen there. Good grief, guess I'm not gonna be looking at too many eagles today! BW is also back on, so that's a good thing!
You better bundle up, it's very cold out there! Don't want you getting sick!
Well, SUZANNE, you have a wonderful day chatting with all the others. Had better head out the door and get to school. Wanda should be getting up soon, with Mits, Dana, Sharon, PAULA, Jill, Norma, Chrissy, Jim, Deb , Iris, JO and all the rest of your crew. You all and all I have missed have a good eagle blogging day. IBoth eagles Just in our nest. It is still working and must be a change of guard. One there now.
Switch, Lib left and Belle is checking eggs before getting on them. They must be alright, cause she didn't waste any time sitting on them! Pulling grasses in around her now to keep her warm.
Candy, you have a great day at school! Stay warm during recess!! Blog at you tomorrow.
Glad you saw the switch.
Good to see you are feeling better too SUZANNE. Gotto go for now. Miss talking to the gang in the PJ club in the morning. I can go now knowing that our nest is still in business. Have a good day and a safe trip home to Gypsy and her friends.
Later gators.
About 5 deer,including the BUCK in the snow in PA!!!! How cool is that!
You too, Candy, have a good one!
My gosh, there are 7 deer in PA, including the buck. Wow, have never seen that many at this hour.
Good morning everyone. I went to bed very early with a sick headache so I am now up very early but the headaches is gone. I do think I will actually have some time for breakfast before coffee and dog treats AND I don't think I will start the day out close to a computer screen. I will catch up on the bLOG comments mid morning or so. Hope there's lots to see and enjoy for each of you.
Wow, something spooked the deer, they all took off running. Neat to watch for this long, tho!
Good morning, Glo. Hope you continue to feel better! Our cam is working and there were 7 deer on the PA cam, including the buck. They all took off, but they're back now, including the buck! Have a great day, Glo.
