floralgirl said...

Hello:) Thanks Steve- I can't get the page to open for the 30 sec. cam or the live feed. I had to get the feed open from my real player.

paula eagleholic said...

Boy, I hope so Steve..that would be great!

paula eagleholic said...

My 30 second cam is working, Megan.

floralgirl said...

The live feed is working fine- I just can't seem to open the page to get the 30 sec. cam up and the link to live feed. I used the link in the file of my real player to get to the feed.

paula eagleholic said...

Hmmm,seems to be one of those differences again, Megan. I have the 30 second up just fine, but only sound on my RP

normabyrd said...

floralgirl said...

Weird, I've been watching the live feed since 6:45, but could never get the 30 sec page to open.

paula eagleholic said...

I use the direct link also to open RP

Looks like Belle is on the chicks.

floralgirl said...

YEs, both were there a little while ago, someone brought a fish, I'm asssuming lib,. then he was back with a stick, then a short feeding by Belle, whcich tiny seemed to sleep through.

normabyrd said...

MEGAN---I have the same trouble!!

paula eagleholic said...

I see a parent is on the chicks now at BWE

OK Megan, so I can come over to your house to watch!

floralgirl said...

Well sure Paula, come on over, but please bring the donuts:) Lets hope John gets up early on Saturdays and can reset the feed for everyone who can't get it.

paula eagleholic said...

I can do that! Frosted or filled or both? LOL

floralgirl said...

oh yes, both:)

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD SATURDAY MORNING TO ALL OUT THERE; ATHENAA, MEGAN, NORMA, PAULA, GUELA,WHO IS BACK TAKING HER NAP AND GLO.

I think we are finally getting the cloudy day down here today. :( Oh well, can't have all sunnys. :)

carolinabeachmom said...

Congratulations NORMA for being our #1 Eagle MOM on the new thread for today. You were on the ball! Thank you for the heads up. Thanks Steve for the new thread. It was getting to be almost a record for blogging, it was soooooooo loooooong. :)

carolinabeachmom said...

WAIT A MINUTE! No fare getting together up there for donuts of all kinds. I'm sitting here with just coffee and nothing beside it. :( Do you ladies want to ship some down to me, PLEASE? :)

carolinabeachmom said...

I know: Keep your mouth shut.
Show up.
Wear beige. :):):) I can tell that I will get through this will all you ladies giving me the good advice. :)

paula eagleholic said...

LOL Candy - no beige required this morning. PJ's will do just fine!

floralgirl said...

Hello Candy:) are you able to open the live feed this morning? oh, yeah, BWE babies had some fish for breakfast about 7-7:30.

carolinabeachmom said...

MEGAN I left the live feed on all night Megan and it is still working. I cheated. I am so glad to hear that the BW eagles had some breakfast this morning, no matter how big or small. It was at least something and lets us know that the parents are still trying.

floralgirl said...

Still chilly here, 33°, but the sun feels great. running out to the GH in my jammies to spray cuttings.. brb

carolinabeachmom said...

Geez PAULA I was hoping that I could wear something splashy wit big giant flowers, etc and long dangling bright flowery earings! Beige, how dull. LOL Yes, I am still in pj's, but I WANT DONUTS!!!! :)

carolinabeachmom said...

BEFORE I FORGET How exciting for DAVE to have his own eaglets now. If there is a fish in the nest, then there must be chicks. Congratulations DAVE.

carolinabeachmom said...

Another food drop in our nest, it looks like

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Candy! I can hear it, just can't see it..and of course the 30 second cam is slow

carolinabeachmom said...

I just love the way the look at it and converse over it. They must be telling the story of how it was captured.

Oh look at those little chicks look up. They don't miss a trick. Does it look like another groundhog?

carolinabeachmom said...

On no PAULA. I thought you were ok. The chicklets settled back down and now parent is bring the fresh catch over to the feeding spot and up come the chicks.

carolinabeachmom said...

Everyone seems to be very polite this morning yet, and one is not eating yet.

carolinabeachmom said...

All heads are up and looking now.The last chick to wake up is getting a little antsy. Looks like Little Bit is in the front, getting his share.

paula eagleholic said...

Hey, My live feed picture just came on!!!

YAY!!

carolinabeachmom said...

Oh oh, here goes MOM going to try and sit on them again. Squish

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks to whomever fixed it!!

carolinabeachmom said...

GREAT PAULA!

paula eagleholic said...

It's still chilly up here this morning, Candy. It's 34° here still.

carolinabeachmom said...

PAULA It is 49 here but the wind is really whipping and with no sun out, it is chilly to me here. Our hottest day was supposed to be yesterday with a cool weekend. I just wish it would hurry up and stay warm, not hot, warm.

floralgirl said...

What did I miss? Another fish drop?

carolinabeachmom said...

Maine nest MT with snow on it, but could hear eagles calling in the background.

SUZANNE'S Falcon is sitting on her eggs and was still sleeping when I looked in.

Couldn't get NBG. It was still black.

YEP, the geese are sitting in the osprey nest in MN> I guess they just want a better view of the area. This is the first time I have seen them.

deb said...

Good Morning, Norma, Paula, Megan and Candy. It is 34 and sunny here today, may hit 50!

carolinabeachmom said...

MEGAN They didn't eat much as I guess they were still full from last feeding.

Parent off the BWE nest and two little ones sleeping close together.

carolinabeachmom said...

MEGAN How are your seedlings coming in your HH?

floralgirl said...

Hello Deb:) that's our forecast here and at the nest also. Sunny and high's in the lower 50's.

carolinabeachmom said...

Good Morning to you too DEB. Nice to see you up and about.

floralgirl said...

Things are realy sprouting in GH, Candy, gotta go get some work done out there, saw some tomatoes and calendulas that need transplanting!bbl:)

carolinabeachmom said...

MEGAN I know it can get hectic at times, but I would love to be able to do what you are doing and see the beauty that comes from it.

carolinabeachmom said...

I think the MN geese just like to sit together on the osprey nest and watch the sunrise. I wonder if they are there all night. It is sure safer than being on the ground.

Lolly said...

Good morning Paula and Candy!

Paula, got on late last nite and looked at yesterday's videos. They
are great! Boy, they really had a disaggreement in front of the children! Shame!!

Then I was looking at the owls in Co. when I heard a kitty cat on our cam. Really clear! lol

Candy, know what you're going through with the wedding. Everyone is giving you good advice!
I've been through weddings with daughter and son.

Lolly said...

Whoops! Good morning Megan and Deb, sorry I missed you!!!

It is 52 here this morning, cloudy and damp. Yuk! But will still get out and work in the yard.

Oh, and if there are any doughnut left, would you pass them to me, please! :)

floralgirl said...

Glad the live fed is up for you now, PAula:) mine is still working ok, for some reason though, I still can't open the 30 sec. cam page and in trying further, can't open any FWS website... c u later

floralgirl said...

oh, that's live feed- not fed.. hello Lolly- that reminds me of a song... ok, gotta go soak up some sunshine:)

floralgirl said...

Oh, and we may need a bigger box of donuts, I require a minimum of 3..oink..oink.

Lolly said...

Watching the owls in CO was a riot last night. I was watching two sweet little babies huddled together when Mom arrives with a mouse! One of those sweet babies immediatly pounced on that mouse. Then Mom took it away and looked as if to scold the baby. ha! And, the baby, looked like it was saying "But....Mameeeee!"

MITS said...

GOOD SATURDAY MORNING EVERYONE

MITS said...

44° and partly sunny here

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD MORNING to you LOLLY. Nice to see you up and cheerful this morning. Thanks for the encouragement on the upcoming wedding. I have until October 5th, so I have to stop stressing or I'll be a nut case by then.:)

carolinabeachmom said...

HEY MITS, GOOD MORNING TO YOU TOO.. It is good to see everyone getting up and getting on the blog. Still no sun here and gray skies. :(

paula eagleholic said...

Belle calling out!!

MITS said...

It is chilly here, but, we like it like that now, makes the cherry blossoms last longer, and no wind please, that rips them right off the tress and it looks like a pink blizzard.....tried all day yesterday to make a tiny url for the cherry blossom web-cam, but just got to nps.gov and use their search engine, it is easy to find, and click on the live cam at the tidal basin.

deb said...

Morning Lolly and Mits. Time for me to leave. I want to be back in time for the game at 5, my time. I am not sure if any local channels will carry it, since it is on ESPN 2. TTUL.

paula eagleholic said...

Cool, Mits. Didn't know they had one. Guess there is a web cam for everything!

Cherry blossom web cam

paula eagleholic said...

Up off the chicks now...looks like picking at nestovers

paula eagleholic said...

Take off to the right

carolinabeachmom said...

Well there goes Belle. Dad didn't come soon enough, so she just took off.

paula eagleholic said...

And the kids are fighting ...

MITS said...

PAULA, it was so frustrating yesterday,I could get the tiny url made, but could not get it to blog looking like yours....:)

paula eagleholic said...

Then a poop shoot

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks PAULA for helping MITS eith the URL. Now I have another thing bookmarked. It has got to be beautiful when they all come out.

Lolly said...

Thanks Paula! Have never been there during cherry blossom time, must put that on my to do list!

Time to go read the morning paper!

And, this will be time time I miss the fish drops!!! :(

Have a great day! I'll be popping in for a peek! BBL

paula eagleholic said...

Mits - you have mail

carolinabeachmom said...
This comment has been removed by the author.
carolinabeachmom said...

Parent back into nest, but doesn't look like a food drop.

MITS said...

THANKS PAULA for during the tiny url, and I will practice more when I get a chance....I can get sound but no live pic at nest

paula eagleholic said...

I have lost my live feed picture again....noticed I heard peeping but no movement....still have sound, but black picture

carolinabeachmom said...

Oh no ladies. I still have mine. I wonder what is up.

MITS said...

same here, Paula:(

carolinabeachmom said...

Well Parent is just sitting at 12 o'clock in the nest. One chick is starting to wiggle and peep a little while the others sleep.

MITS said...

well, I always shut my puter off at night so it can rest.:)

carolinabeachmom said...

Everything calm at the nest now. We have three sleeping chicks for the moment.

carolinabeachmom said...

Paretn is on chicks and working with the egg cup. I stil see two heads bobbing.

MITS said...

the Dennis Pulston osprey were just mating,

MITS said...

Tai is acting like a goof ball, and Mei is happily eating her bamboo.

Geula said...

Oh My, Oh Dear...the real player acts like it's going to work but all I get is a black screen and no sound!

Mema Jo said...

Hello Everyone! Black screen live feed with sound & Eaglecam refreshing with picture. I hear those guys!
Do they peep or chirp?
Those of you watching live feed - are they all getting fed. Concerns for the middle eaglet...

Sunny here in the valley but down right cold!
Mits- I can open the tinyurl for the blossoms but when I click on the link for the live cam - I can't get it. What am I doing wrong?

Mema Jo said...

I haven't read back yet on the comments but I see Lisa/BWE has update with the additional comment for us worriers that there was a feeding.

Geula said...

Jo, it seems that you're not doing anything wrong......I have the same problem! GRRRRR...

Mema Jo said...

Candy-Megan tell me what is going on in the nest - I think my pic on the refreshing cam is frozen...

carolinabeachmom said...

Sorry ladies, a friend just called and we got to yakking. Yes there is a feeding going on in our nest.It seems that I missed it while I was yakking. Chicks are settled back down in egg cup; just on ET sticking up yet. :) Parent is off sitting back at the 12 oclock position.

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD MORNING TO YOU JO! Nice to see you up and about this morning.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Geula! It must be a
universal problem we're having!

How are the donkeys doing?

MITS said...

I can't even get on the still cams

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Candy - Sounds as though my cam is refreshing!

carolinabeachmom said...

Welcome back GUELA. Sorry about the black pic you two are getting. I left my site on last night when I went to bed, so I guess that is why I have a live pic with sound. I almost feel guilty about having a pic when you all don't.

floralgirl said...

Shhhh... I'm not here- I'm working.. I caught the end of a feeding, #1 must be pecking, casue #2 was laying flat, while tiny gobbled food. I still have live feed, but still cannot open any FWS webpage, including 30 sec. cam.

MITS said...

Jo, are you clicking on the launch button, mine works fine

MITS said...

Geula, are you having a heat wave over there, thought I heard something on the news last night?

paula eagleholic said...

I sent Steve an email...

Mema Jo said...

I can't open the Dennis Puleston Osprey Cam. I am not having a very productive morning.

paula eagleholic said...

Still have the 30 second cam here

floralgirl said...

well, slight disagreement over seating arrangements in the nest cup, and I #1 woke up both the others just because she could...

MITS said...

this has been happening to me for several days, at times, I can't even get into the sites, at all, very frustrating.

Mema Jo said...

Shhhhhhhhh - didn't mean to holler at you Megan. Thanks for the info.

Mits - I did click on the launch button..... I think Geula said she couldn't get it either.
Oh Well! I'll just go to the Tidal Basin and "take a hike" lol

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Paula for getting the up-to-date word out to Steve.
My player buffers to 100% and then the sound comes on but still black screen.

floralgirl said...

ha ah that's ok, just came in to get seeds out of fridge and wake up teenager... the live feed is like a magnet, have to look at it when I walk by..those chicks just can't get situated, every time they all settle down, one wakes up the others trying to get comfy in the nest cup.

Mema Jo said...


Dennis Puleston Osprey Cam

normabyrd said...

HELP! HELP! EAGLE BUDDIES!!!---I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SEE THE NEST OR THE EAGLES THIS MORNING!!!---I AM ABOUT TO GO INTO AN "EAGLE STUPOR"!!!!!!

any suggestions?????????

Mema Jo said...

WHOA! Osprey was on the nest
Another Osprey flew in FIGHT
1st Osprey grabbed foot of 2nd & was almost drug out of the nest as the 2nd one tried to get away

MITS said...

sure Norma, watch other cams:)

floralgirl said...

A lot of people are having the same problem, Norma. The only way I could get to the live feed was to open my realplayer and click on the link saved in the file there. I can't open the 30 sec. cam page.

Mema Jo said...

GO TO THE PULESTON SITE

TO SEE THE ACTION


Link is above a couple comments

MITS said...

poor osprey, fly all that way from South America, and have to fight for their nest

normabyrd said...

MEGAN---When you go past your live feed----Stop & Listen!!----Do you hear the EAGLETS calling my name------NORMABYRD====NORMABYRD=====WHERE ARE YOU NORMABYRD???????

Mema Jo said...

I guess I ran out of time on the osprey cam...

MITS said...

I tried doing that Megan, and it still brings up sound, but no pic:(

normabyrd said...

JO---If GEULA can't see the EAGLES or EAGLETS----She isn't worrying about a heat wave---SHE IS A FIXIN' TO GO INTO AN EAGLE COMA TOO!!

GEULA---i feel your pain!!

floralgirl said...

Well, sorry you guys, don't know what the issue is.. hopefully they can fix it. Sorry, Norma, had to turn my sound down, was getting complaints from the dog and the kid. Parent is still perched on nest and now feeding babies again, tiny is in back this time, trying to climb over the other two.

MITS said...

doing the sloth bear demo at the national zoo

floralgirl said...

OH, little bit of a fight between the older two, but when one got pecked he gave it right back, poor tiny is boxed out, he cannot get to the food source, he has laid down.

floralgirl said...

#1 is lunging in and getting wevery bite, hopefully it'll be full soon. And there goes #2 grabbing some, but tiny is still trying to vault himself over the other two using his wings to steady him... parent moved in closer , tiny got a bite, and #2 also.

floralgirl said...

ok, #2 is getting lots of bites now, older one has calmed down a bit, tiny is still reaching... flapping those little wings, now he's laying down again.

glo said...

argh!!! Nice to see middle get some food without too much pecking but gosh dern feed that baby

glo said...

ok other two are full parent reached around to give tiny a couple of bites. Middle now sitting on him :(

glo said...

well I would say 100 or so bites for the biggest two. Maybe 3 or 4 bites for tiny that time. Parent I htink had plans to feed when others were stuffed but tiny is on the bottm of the pile it seems right now.

Geula said...

Wonder of wonders! I had audio all the time but no live video AND I can't connect to the stills cam.

Thanks for the play by play!

floralgirl said...

ok, feeding over , now all 3 are laying down parent perched at 11 o'clock position. All's quiet, I"m out of here again. And the first feeding I saw this early morning, tiny got most of it:) My live feed is still working, but on the right side, it has weird looking blacklines where you should be able to see below nest. hard to explain, but odd looking.

IrisF said...

Good Morning (for a few minutes yet) Everyone!! I'm with the crowd that has sound, but no live picture, AND the refreshing cam is not refreshing even id it does say it is....arghhhh - Painful is the word for it! Glo, hope you can get some video to show all of us later....

Meanwhile, off to the grocery store.

Lolly said...

Lovely! Just lovely! I come back and my cam is frozen, so I get out of it and now I get the black screen with sound. Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!

Read all the comments, so I see I am not alone.

Lolly said...

Eagle on Maine cam and snow is once again falling!

Lolly said...

Two eagles on Maine cam...chowing down!

paula eagleholic said...

Osprey at CT

Geula said...

YES! while I was away, pulling my hair out one by one.......the live video cam back on! YAY!!!

paula eagleholic said...

So far, so good at NBG - still incubating

paula eagleholic said...

Glad you got yours back, Geula - there may be hope for the rest of us!

Still nothing here yet...

carolinabeachmom said...

OK LADIES! WHICH ONE OF YOU MADE MY SCREEN GO BLACK. LOL I came back to find my live cam frozen. Went to do it again and I now have sound and a black screen. So it looks like Glo and Megan are the only ones with pics.

paula eagleholic said...

2 osprey at Puleston

paula eagleholic said...

Osprey at Puleston has a fish

paula eagleholic said...

Tesoro kids just hanging out

Puleston osprey just left with his fish

paula eagleholic said...

BBIALW

carolinabeachmom said...

What a way to end my spring break. I guess I should be thankful for what I did get to see and be quiet.

Geula said...

I spoke too soon....the pic is black again! BWAAAAAH!

carolinabeachmom said...

Parent just flew into BWE. Don't know if food came in yet or not.

carolinabeachmom said...

Parent gone and nothing where it stood. Must be checking in on the chicks is all.

glo said...

Well I did get a short video I will post on the feedblitz for today. Just so we have something fromt he 29th. Nothing too spectacular really. I now join the rest of you who have sound and a black screen. Time to do something else with my day for sure. I am glad to hear Tiny did get a good feed this morning. They are all having a good enough day then I guess.

MITS said...

Candy, BWE chicks got fed some this a.m.

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks mits for the heads up. I can relax then on them for a bit.

carolinabeachmom said...

I have the 30 sec. cam on that I can keep refreshing, but still not the same.

WE are having new flooring put into the living/kitchen sometime this week, so I have been trying to clear out some of the furniture to be easier to move. When I came back, that was when I noticed the live screen froze and done for. :(

paula eagleholic said...

Looks like they are eating again

MITS said...

I was looking at pics of the eaglets at this time last year (BWE), basically the same age, and I just wonder why they are not as active as ours who are much younger. I know there are more people who have a more positive spin on thIS than I do, but I just seem to have questions, but no answers. JMHO

carolinabeachmom said...

Guess I'll go back and continue for a bit. BB

MITS said...

The only NCTC site I can get on is the blog...

MITS said...

osprey landed ever so briefly at BWO

trishintennessee said...

trying to set up the eagle cam. receive message invalid address for the tc/pip address. please help. thanks

carolinabeachmom said...

Just went back to where Steve set the new thread. He said he hoped that John could reset the live cam from home. Good luck!

carolinabeachmom said...

JOHN, JOHN where are you??????

carolinabeachmom said...

Well MITS I was on the still cam and able to refresh, but now I can't seem to do that. Clock keeps ticking.

carolinabeachmom said...

trish We all seem to be having a problem with that site this am. Don't know what is going on there.

floralgirl said...

Well, not to be left out of the crowd.. my live feed screen is now black also. What a drag!!

MITS said...

maybe that is a good sign, that it is being worked on:)

paula eagleholic said...

Candy - that message was from early this morning...I did email Steve...

paula eagleholic said...

I see one chick is way over to the right! Adventurous little boogers today!

paula eagleholic said...

And I believe that is Tiny way to the right.

paula eagleholic said...

Parent back at BWE - may be feeding

paula eagleholic said...

Looks like Dad at BWE

OUr chicks look like they are napping, parent standing guard at noon

carolinabeachmom said...

Parent back at BWE. Waiting to see if there is anything under her.

Mema Jo said...

I'll be away from computer for awhile
Keep an eagle eye on the Live Feed!!

carolinabeachmom said...

Looks like a feeding doesn't it?Yes, I have the parent mouth to mouth with a chick. Lunchtime for BWE

Lolly said...

Just taking a peek! Still no live cam!!!! Back to the yard work! :(

carolinabeachmom said...

Well maybe I am mistaken. Parent has moved away and I don't see anything under it. AND now gone, but a couple of refreshes they had their mouths together. If it was lunch, it was short but sweet.

movin said...

Good morning, everyone, from sunny So Cal, which happens to be 63° and overcast today.

The live feed still isn't quite opening, although it loads a black screen 100%...

I just caught a pic of a female Osprey on the BWO nest again, and this time I think it's the same one, so .....
[:~)]
Jim

movin said...

Just tried live feed again and got the sound only???

[:~)]

Jim

Angie said...

Good afternoon! Thank you for the link to the osprey site! I am thrilled to have found Osprey cam. So neat! I'm wondering if the eagle's nest has a live cam? I am able to get the 30 second updates from the website: http://www.fws.gov/nctc/cam/eaglecam.htm

Is there another site? Thank you!

movin said...

The chicks are being fed in our bunch.

[:~)]

Jim

floralgirl said...

There is a live feed cam with sound but it is not working correctly right now. The link for it is on the 30 sec. cam page, live video. You have to have real player installed to run it. It has been having some technical difficulties today.

Jill said...

Live Feed Link

http://www.fws.gov/nctc/cam/videoinstr.html

Angie said...

Thank you! If it was a snake, it would have bit me! :) hopefully it'll be up and running soon. I look forward to sharing it with my students, too! Have a great afternoon.

Angie said...

There are two ospreys in the nest now... Beautiful! They are noisy, too!

Carol_in_WV said...

Hi, eagle lovers. I came to the office today to do some filing (can't seem to do it when others are here) and I see that we don't have a picture for our live video. Bummer! I'm going to a pot luck dinner at a friend's house and am baking a quiche with asparagus and cheese in it. Never had one with asparagus before, but thought it sounded good. When I got to the office there were 9 turkey vultures sitting in a tree right down from the office - a "colony" of vultures, to be more precise. I watched them for a while, but they all flew away when I started whistling at them. Was it something I said!? I wish I could see our babies. :-(

Carol_in_WV said...

As you can see - I changed my picture. The other one is cute,but hard to see on the blog. Hope this one doesn't scare anyone! I wanted to tell you all about the turkeys I saw yesterday morning on my way to work. I came on a back (country) road. There is an area where I've been seeing a flock of wild turkeys ocassionally, so I was watching for them. I came to this little meadow and saw 3 or 4 turkeys in the far end of the meadow, just out of the trees where a steep wooded hill starts. As I drove by, I looked into the trees and there was a long line of turkeys walking down the hill. They were actually walking one behind the other. There were probably 25 or 30 of them. It was a strange, but beautiful sight!

Mauley said...

Good afternoon all eagle friends, and Carol, we have wild turkey here, too in se KY. My husband was cutting hay and turned up a nest of turkey eggs about 10 years ago. Our oldest son wanted to try to incubate them and took them to my Mother, and of course, my dear Mom put them in her oven on warm on a towel she kept dampened, turned them several times a day and believe or not in 7 days we had about 15 wild turkeys. We raised them and turned them out at the barn, and they kept pretty close to the barn for a long time. It is amazing what determination and prayer can accomplish. Today is Mom's 6th birthday in Heaven. She loved anything that had life in it, and tended sick or injured wildlife back to health with love and prayers. Forgive me for rambling. and I humbly thank you for for listening. huggs donna. BTW My live feed is out too, but I can get the still cam if I refresh evry few minutes. Can some one tell me how Tiny is?

paula eagleholic said...

Back - I guess that was a no go on the cam reset....at least the 30 second pic is still working!

Mauley said...

Jim, Paula, did little Bit get fed at the 2:30 ish feeding? Did anyone else get it.

floralgirl said...

But I still can't even open the 30 second cam page!

Mauley said...

I wish I could help you Megan.

floralgirl said...

Doesn't anyone have the EASY button?!

Jill said...

That was great Donna. Zach was one of the lucky ones in Kindergarten that got to bring home the "chicken" they had incubated and hatched. I don't know what that thing was but it wasn'ta chicken. UGLY. But it followed Zach ever where. We kept it in a dog carrier out back and when Zach was home he would let it out and it would follow him.

Mauley said...

Oh no, I can't even get the still cam now. What is going on?

Mauley said...

Jill, my husband is the county 4-H AGent here. He has 50 dozen eggs incubating in all the elementary schools in the county. He finds homes for them before the eggs hatch. Local farmers may apply for the chickens (free) only if they have facilities for them. No student is ever allowed to take one home. Pretty little chicks grow up and become a big responsiblity for parents and might face abuse or neglect. The students know this before their class is given the incubators and eggs. It is a big project here. Kids learn how to "candle" the eggs to actually watch the embryo becom a chick. They love watching them hatch. They get to keep them in the room and watch them in their brooders for two weeks. The project allows students opportunities to chart development, journal information, and watch the growth. One class made a special brooder as a class carpentry project, because they had a couple of Pecking Pearls. They placed them together and the pecking stopped on the smaller chicks. Why am I still rambling? How is little bit of fluff?

I am headed out of here for Mass
I'll be sure to pray for all the right things - We have so many in need. Maybe though I will light a candle for the cam since it brings the happiness of nature into our lives. Life is Good!

well I still have a still cam. I do nOT hit refresh. I just wait and hope that is will and so far so good. Been kind of a long tough day. We must all be spoiled and in love. Tiny appears to be in front on the still cam now Mauley and I hear loud peeps on the live feed so I am going to assume that peeping mouth is in great position for food. Best I can do.

Still shows feeding. Tiny holding onto that front spot. Think he will get fed. Mellow middle seem sin submissive mode on left and Pecky Pearl is of course right there with her mouth open too.

Thanks Glo and all. We are spoiled. I am so thankful that we get to see and know what is going on even if it is not perfect. donna

glo said...

And now a bite for Mellow middle

parent is doing a good job getting to everyone from what we can see.

Mauley, ramble all you want, I think that is a terrific program for the children. I'm sure my grandchildren have no idea where eggs or chickens come from. Or milk either for that matter. :)
