Paula, are you so excited you can hardly stand it? I can't wait to get home and watch the live feed. Is anything special going on I have missed. Do we have a poll for names? You can see hard far behind I am. donna
Well, it let me publish on new page anyway. Go figure this blog. Just happy we have it. Blogger cop had me early this morning. I could lurk, but not publish. It finally let me in. donna
DANELLE----What a BUMMER!!---you aren't supposed to get sick!!!--Bet you just wanted to stay home & watch the 'little crew'---ho!---AREN'T THEY GREAT!!!---"chicken soup"----HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER VERY SOON!!!
I just hung up the phone from calling SHARON She is A-ok She is having internet problems. Like you said their town site is also down & so is her sister Beverly's down.
I gave her the news about the 3rd hatching & she is a very happy nestor
UPDATE ON MEI XIANG AND TIAN TIAN March 17: Pacing, Power Walking, Napping, Bleating Over the past four days the pandas' behavior has been fairly consistent. Tian Tian is pacing, power walking, and pirouetting around his yard and checking the mesh windows for an opportunity to check on Mei Xiang. When Mei is nearby, she alternates chirping provocatively, with her higher pitched “stay away from me” squeal. Tian watches intently with his ears forward, sitting on his haunches with his face pressed against the mesh. As soon as she scolds, he usually gives up and walks away, returning to his bamboo, if only for a short time before going back and checking again. Mei Xiang is also pacing. She is spending more time on the ground and less time climbing in the trees, since she does not need to avoid or deter any advances from Tian.
We shift her indoors in the afternoon for urine collection. She has filled her afternoons with long naps on the rocks. She is declining to eat most of her bamboo. When given a fruitsicle, instead of consuming it with her usual pleasure, she used it to anoint her entire body and once the remains melted, she rolled in it. What a sticky mess! Thankfully, she still enjoys her produce, which enables us to collect swabs for vaginal cytology each morning.
Mei is also bleating at her keepers. She seems to be withholding this vocalization when Tian Tian is near. This is the only time of year we hear Mei bleat. It should be only a couple more days....

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 258 of 258Oh I'm sorry, that was Belle that brought the fish in and she was eating the old carp. Lib took the fish to the back of the nest, not Belle.
And then Belle took off again...Lib still with the chicks.
Good afternoon ya'll! I've been away all weekend, and off work sick today. So I see we have a 3rd chick today? How awesome!

Good Boy! He's finally sitting.
Thanks Norma! I'm getting plenty of rest and panda naps today. I'm glad I can watch the little eaglets on live feed while I'm home.
Time for peanut butter & jelly

Mema Jo, you are a woman after my own heart. I could live on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!
Time for another panda nap. Talk to ya'll later.

My dad's wife's surgery is over, lasted about 3 1/2 hours. The doctor said he was very pleased with how it went.
be nice if we knew what was going on in the KENT NEST?

Me, too, I wish we could see the nest, instead of a head once in awhile. Come on, Chuck, we want a server for Cam 3.
Oh, that's good news Deb!

Deb, Great news about the surgery!
Hope her recovery is quick.

She grabbed one of the many fish at the front of the nest and was eating...then Lib took off to the right...Mom feeding chicks
All done eating for now. They are sure cute, too bad we can't hear what is going on.
Back on the chicks
