Thanks for the Monday thread, Steven. I hope the cam comes up this morning!
Morning, Glo. Should have a BW baby soon!
Good morning. I am watching for the site to pop back up.
WCEHP!! Hanky panky must be involved! :)

Good morning, Norma. There were a lot of flamingos out earlier this morning, but now there is just one lone flamingo walking around.
Guess what!!----My COFFEE doesn't taste as good this a.m.!! ho!---and SUZANNE---I guess you arrived home safely Fri. evening!!
You all might want to keep an eye on Cape Coral 1 this week too. I htink there will be a fledging there any day now. We know it ususally happens in the morning.
SUZANNE---I have had a hard time this a.m. figuring out TAI & MEI!!! ho!---I think the 'LITTLE PRINCE' is eating bamboo with both hands---as fast as he can get it to his mouth!!!---
THANKS GLO!---I thought sure BWE would have hatched by now!!!---LISA thought that Saturday!!
Turkeys in PA.
Good Morning,
I'm having eagle withdrawl... What happened to the web site? It was a wonderful day yesterday and i hear it's going to be even bette today. I have lots to do, but I'll be done by 2:30 this afternoon and then I'm off to the woods with the camera again.
Made it home at 1930 Friday night, Norma. Only took 2 1/2 hours to do a normal hour and 45 to 55 minutes. Though it was a parking lot, 495 took the brunt of it at the 270/495 split. Glad of that! Made for a very long day, 11 3/4 hours at work! Will NOT do that again!
I really need to find these other cams you all are watching. No... I just changed my mind. I would sit here all day and look at everyone of them.
Hey, Donnie! The FWS web is down. Steve said they're working on it. Enjoy your afternoon taking pics.
Donnie, BW eagle is gonna hatch any day now. This is day 37 for her first egg, so it's due to hatch like any minute. Hopefully!
In the CORALI silhouette it appears the eaglet is getting some instructions from a parent!!!
Keep your fingers crossed guys. I don't think we've had a first egg this late. It really needs to hatch today.
If not, we might need that second egg. :-)
MORNIN' DONNIE!----Did you win any BINGO games over the weekend??
Thanks Suzanne,
Are you out in the country or right down town Mt Alto? I've lived up that way before. On the Waynsboro MD state line, Fayetteville, and Chambersburg, Smithsburg MD, I've been all around. You have some great places to go and watch for the birds.
Noooo Bingooooo
I never win.
LISA!!---I will cross my eyes too!!---Thinking of your BWE eggs!!
Hello all:)beautiful sunny day today. Got my fingers and toes crossed, Lisa, waiting patiently for that first egg to hatch.
ANY POPS YET SHARON!!!---
MORNIN' MEGAN!!---I see you are planting inside now!!---Supposed to be a beautiful day today!!!
NO POPS YET, NORMABYRD!
Lisa, I was thinking the same thing when I saw egg number 1 hadn't hatched yet this morning! Second egg is due to hatch 5 or 6 Mar, right? Keeping my fingers crossed!
Donnie I live on 997, and that's as close as I care to say on this VERY PUBLIC BLOG. But yes, lots of birdwatching places near me! Not many eagles, though!
SUZANNE---Check the PINK FLAMINGOS now!!----They are 'almost' dancing---heads are held high & they are moving back & forth!!---(don't see any duckies either)
I loved it up there, I was to young to really appreicate it though. I just wondered if you were in town.Ther ewas a Ice Cream place with a couple of white deer. Is it still there?
Can't get a picture on the Tesoro cam. anyone else having that issue?
They are pretty, Norma.
Good morning, Megan.
Donnie, you have been around that area, sounds like. What made you decide to move where you are now? The wildlife? I have skunks, possums (even babies, which are almost cute), and deer occassionally. I see the tracks in the snow, but have never seen the deer. Also have rabbits and chimpmunks, and they are too cute to watch. Sure can make a dent in bird seed in a feeder, though!
Donnie, Twin Kiss! Yup, they just opened for the season last week! Megan, Tesoro went down earlier this morning! Been down a while!
BOTH IN BW NEST!!
NO TESORO here MEGAN!
Never mind! In and out in 1 refresh. But whoever came in didn't bring any food, and same eagle is still on eggs.
Good morning! Wow! What a pretty picture at Norfolk, both in nest! Anyone know if there is an egg yet?
Must not have lingered SUZ!!---I missed him!
I found 4 acres of woods with a little cabin on it. I call it a cabin but it is really a dump. I froze my --- the first year. I was looking at the place and right outside the kitchen windows 6 deer walked out of the wood and I was sold. I had to have it. It's warm in here now and the deer are still outside the window. Coons, opossums, fox, squirrls, no rabbits or chipmunks (To many cats).
NO egg at Norfolk yet. Lot of avticity in the nest with both birds, so maybe they will try agin this week.
WOW!!---The VA SITE---is AWESOME!!---Don' they make a beautiful pair!!!!
Both eagles at NBG! They finally came up.
I use to have goats and chickens rabbits, caged birds, guinea pigs, pheasants, quail, all kinda things. Had to give all that up. Now I have one dog and 5 very old cats.
EAGLE ON NEST---BC SITE!
everyone have a great day. I'm outa here..
Anyone heard from Bob lately? He's been kind of quiet.
AS ususal, didn't read back far enough. Guess you all knew the NBG site was up and both eagles were there. Yup, sure is a pretty nest!
Donnie, I have a stray cat that has been hanging around for about 6 or 7 years now, but he comes every morning for breakfast, and meets my car in the afternoon for pets and dinner. I get other strays every once in a while, but still have the little critters. He used to catch the birds (bad cat), but he's also a very good mouser (good cat)! He doesn't seem to bother the birds much anymore, but I also have a RedTailed Hawk that has taken it upon himself to keep the sparrow population down a bit. He doesn't get excessive, but sure know when he's around...the little birds have a fit! Sounds like you have an awesome place, Donnie!! Love to watch wildlife, and outside my windows?? That would be so cool.
oh, good grief- avebiufwz-too early in the morning for all these letters... too nice outside, can't stay by computer any longer. Hope that BW egg hatches soon. Norfolk pair is really hanging around nest this morning. Have a great day everybody, going out to take advantage of the sunshine and warm temps.
Lisa, haven't heard from Bob in quite a while! Think the last time was the last pics YOU posted on your BW site. That's been what, a month or so??? Hope he's alright!
LISA---I think of BOB most often when I am viewing EAGLE PICS!!---I wondered where he has been too!---Thought maybe his job at BW was part-time!!---Miss him!
BIG TURKEYS!! PA SITE!!---
Eagle at BWO. Eagle at BWE yelling at someone in the trees above her. "I'm HUNGRY!"
EAGLE ON NEST!!---CO Site!!-----
The GREAT HORNED OWL "known as the TIGER of the sky"---is on the nest-----2 eggs!!
Just looking at a spreadsheet I was keeping this year... our first egg could hatch as early as Friday! For dates on this thing, I used the date the cam came back up, after being down from 1-4 Feb, so used 4 Feb as laying date for egg #1. We'll see.
Good Morning, everyone. I have all the cams open and need to catch up on the blog.
DIVERS!!!
Suz, the first egg will hatch on Thursday! My b-day!
Ok, walking outside now..so beautiful out there. Robins everywhere, pileated woodpecker eating holly berries. Mockingbird is attacking everyone, until I open window and yell at him and throw him a piece of banana. He goes right to it as soon as it hits the ground. Off to get some work done. oh please, really...mtlikxfx
OK EAGLE is on the nest!!---This site is new to me---HELEN gave it to me SAT.---before the CAM went down!!----4 EGGS!!
I SEE A DIVER!----WAY UP THERE!
GOOD MONDAY A.M. EVERYONE....little concerned about the egg at BW, hope it hatches soon
both eagles BWE
just one now...
FSV eagle has a fish or something in the nest with her. Wish somebody would feed our BW eagle!
Good Morning Eagle Friends ( :
Have to read comments although I do see BWE has had a hatch yet. Here little chicky Here little chicky Come on out were waiting to see you ( :
Oh I see we still have those dear words...........
Morning, Helen! Hope you're feeling good this morning. Going to be a beautiful day. Norma, are you talking about the Lake Washington eagle nest? WildWatch? I can't get it this morning, just dark.
Owl hotel eagle turning her eggs. Well that was quick. One quick turn on a couple eggs and right back down.
Morning, Dana.
Word Verification is a pain in the butt, but it has stopped the spammers!
its only 6:20a.m. at LW
Dawn in Kent, and I guess dawn at Lake Washington too.
Two eggs at BC!
Good Morning Glo, Suzanne, Sharon, Norma, Donnie, Lisa, Megan, Lolly, Deb, Helen and Dana...
Lisa, we sure hope that first egg hatches today!
OK, will go catch up on reading and will come back..
Sure hope we get OUR cam back today!
anyone know what time they are banding the chicks at Tesoro today??
MORNIN' HELEN & DANA!!----
ATTENTION BWE EAGLETS!!---DO NOT---I REPEAT DO NOT---COME OUT OF YOUR SHELLS UNTIL THURSDAY, MARCH 6, 2008!!!!---
(sharon--that should take care of that)!!
MORNIN' IRIS & LOLLY!!---It truly is a GLORIOUS day here in WV!!!!
Good Monday morning, friends. Looks like a nice spring day out there!
Here are the two eggs at Barton Cove.
Barton Cove eggs
No Mits I was wondering also about the banding time. I don't think we will get to see it like with Dr. Sharpie. Would like to though.
I see our friends had some traveling wind problems. She'll see he sees a dr. if necessary. They been together too long. Glad it hasn't dull their fun time. Got on their way I see and made it further down. In my prayers.
Morning Iris that just came in.
Oh no, is Tesoro down?
OREGON NEST----Less snow on trees ----BUT STILL LOTS OF SNOW ON NEST!!
Mits - Lynda said she was going to post the info on the website, but I have yet to see it.
Jill might travel this way. Trying to get to see the eagle I saw yesterday. Hubby was really nice about his sandwich being cold. Good old microwave ( : I wished ours were banded so I would have known without a doubt it was Liberty. It was a fully grown big adult. I feel I've been kissed by the angels above ( :
yes Paula, it is:(
Morning, Iris, Paula, and Lolly! And welcome, Lolly, haven't talked to you before. Paula, Tesoro has been down since early this morning. Bummer!! I'm wondering if they turned off the cam to prepare for the banding. They have to get up to the nest to get the eaglets and bring them down for blood tests and banding. At least that's what I'm hoping! There was lots of wing flaps before it got really daylight.
HERON CAMS #1 & #2 are open!---#3 is open--foggy!!
BET you are right SUZANNE!!---But haven't seen time of banding!!!
SHARON----Still waiting for POPS!
I've been wondering where has Bob been also! C'mon out and play, Bob.
WHAO, check out the herons on cam 2 in WDF!!! Awesome. And the eagle nest is now showing on LW, but nobody's home. So Norma, where did you see a nest with 4 eggs????
Hee Hee -
Anyone notice something different about the blog???
YAY, Thanks Steve!
Oh thank you Steven:):):
Good morning, Deb. Think I missed you earlier! Sorry! Oh, no word verification.
Karla, thank you for the update on Wanda and Gene
WHOO HOO!!!
Still waiting on that pop, Normabyrd.
Hey everyone. Sorry I've been invisible the last few weeks. My Dad passed away last weekend. He would have turned 85 this past Thursday. He had been in the hospital in NY for about five weeks as a result of a gallbladder attack. He had been fine before that. He went downhill pretty quickly and in the end it was best he didn't continue to suffer. I made a couple of trips up including for the services. I got to see him before he passed although I don't know if he saw me. I think he did.
I made it out to BW yesterday for the first time in a few weeks. Unfortunately I was in a bit of a fog and didn't realize I had the camera set at 800 ISO so everything came out pretty grainy. I'll see what I can salvage.
I'm off to a long meeting. I'll check back in this afternoon.
Suzanne just sent you the link to the 4 eggs cam
Bob, so sorry for your Dad's passing, will keep you in my prayers
Bob - So Sorry to hear about your Dad. My sympathies to you and your family. I'm glad you were able to see him. I'm sure he knew you were there.
I am so sorry to hear about your Dad, Bob. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Bob-so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. It's not easy to lose a parent at any age.
I might be going to BW this weekend for my birthday. Any tips on the best places to get some good pics? We'll probably be there mid-day, when the lighting isn't the greatest.
Hello to everyone else!
OH, Bob, so sorry to hear that. So difficult to deal with the loss of a parent. My sympathies to you and your family.
Darn, no word verification!
Bob, so very sorry to hear about your Dad's passing. I'm sure he knew you were there! You're in my prayers.
Got it, thanks, Helen!
OUR CAM IS BACK, OUR CAM IS BACK! YEAH!
Oh look at Tai. He's trying to kill a tree branch... that's still attached. Oh, he just let it go and it boinged back up. Now he's trying to stand on his head. He's a hoot right now.
YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!
http://www.fws.gov/nctc/cam/eaglecam.htm
Thanks for the heads up, Sharon.
And the pic is frozen!
LOL Sunny!
Welcome Joanne!
Yay Cam is on!! Life is good!!
Thanks, Sharon for the heads up! Isn't it wonderful to see the nest again. Welcome, Joanne!
Sorry to hear about your Dad Bob. I am glad you got to see him and sure he saw you. Prayers for you and your family. We love your pictures. Your fog will lift with time.
WONDERFUL!!!---LIFE IS GOOD!!---
THANKS YOU STEVEN!!!
Tai is surely a hoot....Hello Joanne:)
MORNING JOANNE!!---Where are you from?---
It's a little slow, but the pic is updating here.
SUZANNE---Do you have the OK SITE NOW?---Noted HELEN was going to send it to you!!
WOW!!---56° here in WV now---just beeped---going to 60s today!!!---Hope your temp goes up to DEB!!!
Steven wrote me back. He said our eagles flying time is only 10 minutes to here. I knew it wasn't long. Since we moved here I have always been watching the skies around here. Didn't think though I good sit in my car and watch an eagle right through my windshield. No looking up ... still an experience I'll never forget thank you Liberty (or Belle still feel it was Liberty). ( :
Sorry welcome Joanne
Good morning all you critter lovers! Beautiful morning in sunny So. Cali!
Ok, someone mentioned a nest with 4 eggs!! May I ask where that is?? Tried bring the PH nest up here at work but gives me a page error. Don't know if its the site or this computer because of all the blocked sites from the school district :-( A neccessary evil unfortunately. Well, hope to check back occassionally here at work but sometimes gets busy.
Thanks, Sharon for the heads up! Isn't it wonderful to see the nest again. Welcome, Joanne!
I hope my temp goes up, too, Norma. It is 16, headed for 28.
Eagle just flew into Maine went to nest then up into tree. humm
Morning Karen
Today is suppose to be beautiful, tomorrow might get some lightening eekkk
Our poor BW eagle has not eaten all day. Where is that lazy bum with some food? She's got to be starving. Wonder if we can get a chopper and drop off a bunch of fish for her...
Karen - some people are getting into PH - others are not.
BWE up and looking
She was just up at BWE but couldn't see anything. darn
Our cam is off more than usual from my clock. I refreshed and it is still off more than usual. Waiting to see if our eagle moves.
Banding of the eaglets is scheduled for March 3rd, depending on the weather. The youngsters will be handled gently and returned to the nest as soon as possible. The parents will return and all will be back to normal. Birds live in the moment, and since these eaglets have spent weeks with their parents, there is no chance this brief encounter with humans will have an adverse effect on their ability to survive in the wild.
Found this info on the Tesoro updates page....
Whipppee our eagle just turned its head !!!!!!!!!!!!!
BWE seems to be looking under again
Thanks Paula for the update on Tesoro.
Oh my, I'm missing everybody. Let me just say good morning, all, AND welcome all you new folks! Glad to have you.
Pics seem a little sticky...but better than No Pic!
THANKS PAULA!---I was reading all of that too!!---but isn't it interesting that they aren't giving a time---at least let us know if it is in the a.m. or afternoon!!
DANA!!---i think maybe your are hooked!!!!!!----ho!---STAY COOL!!
Go away to read the paper, come back and no cam at VA but cam working here. I can not keep up!
Bob, I'm so sorry to hear of your father's passing, but I hope that at the end he was relieved. I know for sure he is at peace now....
I count our first egg's 35th day as March 10th...so still a week to go for ours, perhaps?
Would someone please send me the address for the heron cams?? Puhleeeze??
Lurking today, might post again later :)
Good Morning - all kinds of news on here this morning. I still can't get myself to post first & then read.
Thank you Steve for the new thread without the word verification!
Tai is in his pond
Karen, the Oklahoma nest has four eggs.
http://www.suttoncenter.org/eaglecam.html
turning eggs at BWE
HELEN!!!---That 'LITTLE IMP' loves the water!!!----
Did Glo or anyone mention anything about Tesoro banding NOT being on the cam?
YES, HE DOES, NORMA
NBG is back up for now.
MORNIN' JO!!---EVERYONE has noticed the time is not posted anywhere!!-----
Morning, BirdGirl. I'm thinking Belle laid her first egg morning of 4 Feb, when the cam came back. Her first egg should hatch somewhere between 7-11 Mar! Figuring 32-36 days, so yes, you're right on the money for 35 days. Getting exciting now, isn't it?????
Just wish egg #1 would hatch for our Lady BW!!
SAFE JOURNEY HOME SUZANNE!!---LOVE PATS TO YOUR FUZZY FRIENDS!!
bridge today--
Thanks for the heads up there Mits he is a rascal lol
Seeing 2 eggs at SR both eagles in the nest. They just let the sun hit the eggs for a time. Then get back on them.
Oh my you all that know my husband will get a kick out of this. I told him that Steven said only 10 minutes flying time to here. Hubby said you should be glad it (eagle) didn't take a dump on the car. You see I am always after him to get it washed! I told him if the eagle had. I would have told him he better hadn't go wash it now. I'd have to scrap some off onto a stick and put a clear glaze to harden over it lol DON'T WASH THE CAR LOL
Delphia, the herons are on same cam as eagles and owls at WildWatch.
http://www.wdfw.wa.gov/wildwatch/live_cams/heroncam2.html
Open that and then you can see all the other cams available.
Jo - Lynda didn't say it wouldn't...
Thanks, Norma. I gave them lots of pats Friday. They went nuts when I finally got home! Whenever I'm really late (not too often!), and finally get home, they run all over the house, all excited. Then they want very quick pets, then dinner!! After all, I can pet them after they've had food put in the ol' tummy!!! Gonna try to sneak out early, too. Like any minute now. Not sure that will be possible, but we'll see.
BW head's down under
Tai is trying to get Mei's attention, but she is going to take a panda nap
Back up and looking outward
Was hoping she/he would get up
BWE
<{urp}> that webcam stirs up motion sickness -- the one on the water
Is that an eggshell or a feather to the fight of the eagles head at BWE
Tesoro cam is down so I am thinking that the NBC Nightly News that comes on at 6:30pm EST and is when Brian Williams will show a short video clip of the banding....... :(
Lynda White has made no announcements on the home page yet.
we were watching that yesterday Paula
Great blopper cop ate my comment.
'
Mits what is that round thing Tai (if it's him) keep look through?
Eggs were just turned our nest...couple minutes ago.
Ok, Mits, thanks. First time I have really noticed it today.
just a part of the fence that looks into the other yard, Dana
I love the way BWE looks down towards her/his breast as though a little bobble head could be there.
I sure wish it would be.........
my 30 second cam is reloading every 60 to 90, sometimes longer seconds:(
Mei is awake, let's see if she comes over to say hello to Tai
off to take a shower....BBL
Tesoro is up, but has a funky picture
Mei is barking and growling at TAI
Does anybody else think the backside of our eagle looks a little strange?
Eagle at BWO
Ha Ha , yes it does Sharon!
yes, Sharon looks like fins from a 57 Chevy:)
Maybe that is what happens when you only have 'fish' in your diet. lol
Helen, was that her on the other side of the screen window? Or was that Tian? Tai was sure trying to get their attention, then the parent walked away. Poor baby!!!
NBG cam is still down, but they have some new pics from yesterday! Eagles mated twice, how cool.
Heading out the door on tiptoes! All have a great eagle/panda day. Let me know and send pics if our BW egg hatches.. Sure hope it does!
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
Isn't it time for a switch at BWE!
I so wish that their camera could have been tilted just a smidgen so we could see the edge of the nest.
It is great about BC having 2 eggs.
Tesoro working!!
thanks, Paula
Our eagle hasn't gotten up since the cam came back on.
Parent just passed nest with food or something in talons...almost landed, then took off again at Tesoro
Suzanne, know you have left, but that was Mei Xiang barking at Tai Shan
Yes, Sharon there was an egg roll earlier
Hope they will do the banding at Tesoro - weather looks decent...
They apparently blocked the banding at Tesoro on purpose. I just went to the Maine forum and found that much out. They are a mad group there from being blocked. I haven't read why yet.
No Word Verification YAY. Now if we just had a little bobble head the day would be perfect. Think Steve can fix that too. LOL
Hello Everybody
too bad, Deb....Hello Jill.
BlackWater eagle moving around
Your kidding. Well that really sucks.
sure does:(:(
Two eagles at BC. Dad just checking in to ask if all is okay!
Sounds like they didn't want to scare school kids, but am still reading backwards to find out more.
From what I read Glo got an email explaining they were not going to show it for fear of scaring students or others who might be watching that might not understand what was happening and be scared?? But the fact that NBC is going to show it on the mews, sounds like they got the exclusive rights to show it first:( Such a great learning opportunity to watch these things happen live.. 84° in the GH:)
now why would that scare school children, they see much worse on TV, just watch the news.
Thanks, Megan. I can stop looking for answer.
Apparently the information that the banding would be blocked was circulating as of last night, but I never read it until just now. Thanks Deb.
Glo had info on the blocking of the banding on her FTLOE. It was transferred over to the Maine Forum. I mentioned earlier that the NBC Nightly News that comes on at 6:30pm EST and is when Brian Williams will show a short video clip of the banding.....
Maybe the Audubon Society will have a special video for us....
Duh - this is an opportunity to educate people.
I thought you were joking Jo, I didn't know you were serious.
sounds like $$$ talks- can't imagine they didn't realize how upset devoted cam fans would be. Back outside
jmho, but lame excuse, don't they think the kids will watch it tonight....glad Dr.Sharpe doesn't have that opinion
