Jo, cute video. I see the black birds. I was reading on the Wildwatch page, you can't get into where the heron are, but you can stand on a bridge and use binoculars.
Jill & Mits I think they are saying that they would limit comments to only those registered on the blog ( Not limit the # of comments of people that are registered on the blog)
Remember that Anyone can register onto this blog. Like Jon and all the other spammers......

Awwww, mema jo, thanks! I will look at that tmrw. Hubby wants to watch a movie with me. Sorry it took so long to get back to you! I took some homemade chicken soup over to my mom's and dad's. My mom has not been feeling well and my dad has been doing all the cooking so thought I'd give him a break. I am off now for the night. See you all tmrw! Sweet dreams to you all :-)
Had a nice afternoon of shopping with the college kid. Bought him 2 nice coats for his birthday, one dressy, one casual. Then we went to Macaroni Grille for dinner. I'm still stuffed!
Good Morning, world. Another Monday. Wonder what new things this day will bring. I see we a)don't have an NCTC cam, the entire FWS website is down, and b) we don't have a BW baby yet. I was wondering, nobody called, so I didn't think so. Sure hope those eggs are viable!!! Yesterday was day 36 for egg #1. Maybe this morning!!! Not so bad this morning, 37° in PA, 39° here. Nice weekend too, and no snow/rain/ice/wind. Not too shabby a day. Have to check out other cams, and try to see what I missed. All have a great eagle/panda day. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
Seems like I've been to bed longer, but the clock says it's only been a bit more than an hour!
I hope you had a wonderful weekend, Suz. No, BW didn't hatch, yet; and no, Norfolk didn't lay again yet. WV cam was down all day, Sunday. Don't know if they're starting up the ancient curse of the weekend cam again or not. What do you think?
Some of the other nests like FL are moving along as expected.
The Santa Ana winds are back tonight and are roaring through apartment buildings.
Humidity, which is normally in the 70% or higher range, has dropped to 6%!
Went out to my Dodge 'pocket rocket' last evening to go to the supermarket...the battery barely cranked the engine over, but it did start. Battery is having its 5th birthday about now...4 yr. warranty. But it's too early to tell if it is the battery or the fact I haven't been driving it as often and haven't charged it up. I'll either be able to charge it or will have to replace it in the morning.
Jim, sorry I missed you. But I hope you do get some sleep! After an hour in bed for me, I am totally out. Usually sleep pretty good, just sometimes it takes me a while to get to sleep. I don't have a cam on NCTC, or a couple of the other owl/eagle cams (CO) is down, but the rest I watch are up. BW eagle hasn't moved much since I brought the cam up, so s/he's not restless, so not hearing an egg crack or feeling movement. Sorry about your car battery! Try to run it and charge it for a while, maybe that will help. But it will only postpone the inevitable. Once they're down, hard to keep a charge in them. And they die at the most inopportune time! OH, BW eagle just woke up. Wiggly pic, but head is up. Now let's see what they're gonna do. Still a little early yet for them to be staying awake. Looks like egg turning. Yup, turned eggs now head still up kinda looking forward. Too bad not looking down at eggs soon to be babies. Oh, head going back under wing. Or maybe not. Just half way towards back. Time will tell, I guess. Ok, gonna stay awake and look around. Let's hope for a hatch soon.
Tai is just now waking up, he stretched and grabbed a piece of bamboo. Now he's gonna sit down and lean against the rocks and eat it. Tesoro just had some big wing flaps by the oldest eaglet. Can't hardly see them, only silhouettes. ME is MT. Can't get NBG up. It was up this morning, now just black screen. PA is MT, and the flamingos are waking up in the water. Our BW eagle is still sleeping, and BWO is MT. Oh, more wing flaps in Tesoro. Wow, that guy looks ready to go any second. They're banding them today, aren't they? Owl in hotel, but half awake, half asleep.
Good Morning to all; News from Wanda.. They headed south Saturday morning - got as far as Mt Jackson VA when extremely strong winds ripped the awning off the motor home. Daddy's hands got cut up pretty bad while trying to fix the awning in the wind. They had to wait 2 hours for Roadside service to come and temporarily attach it so they could drive on. They reached Tennessee yesterday around 2:00 - headed for Chatanooga to fix the motorhome. She was is great spirits considering..... She says not to worry because they have 16 days before they need to be in Vegas. She is taking good care of Daddy's hands and will get him to a doctor if need be. Never a dull moment with our family. LOL!!! I'll keep you posted on their travels. Have a wonderful day!!!
Hey, Butterfly, long time no hear! I'm sorry to hear about problems already! Hope the rest of the trip is worry free!!! Hope your dad's hand heal quickly! At least they're on the way, I know Wanda was really looking forward to this trip. Thanks for the update, keep us posted. Maybe they won't have any more wind down south and out west! Morning, early bird Dave.
Good morning everyone. Sorry to hear Wanda and Gene have started out having such a time but hopefully it will be all good from here. Hopefully our cam will be up some time this morning.
It is supposed to be a beautiful day today in Bluefield!
BWE just turned eggs again, but right back down. Lost the PA cam, but got it back opened right away. TEsoro eaglets have settled down, now just waiting for food, I'm sure. I keep getting a message press SPACEBAR, etc across the Tesoro cam, and I can't make it go away. Not a good day for cams at my end!!
Something is in ME nest, but no idea what it is. Just popped up, looked like it is in the nest. If I didn't know better, I'd swear it was an eaglet, fuzzy one. But they don't even have eggs yet, so that can't be. Sure wish it would stick it's head up again.
Suzanne, BW rolled the eggs several times last night. She would lay on them for a while, get up, turn around, lay down, get up peak at the eggs, lay down, get up, turn them, lay down, then start over. 15-20 minutes was teh most she spent "asleep"

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 283 of 283Jo, that was awesome!!!!!!
That was cute JO. Did anybody watch the rest of the videos? Not as cute as the eagles but........
I had another idea on the word verification.
I don't believe there's any need for it after you have signed in the first time, and just doing it once wouldn't be too much, for me anyway.
Why all these silly reps when a SPAMMER can't get past the first one???
Somebody might ask Steve if he can cut it down to the first comment only.
[:~)]
Jim
Eagle looking under her again at BW
Deb, you can see the blackbirds on cam 1 and 2
My friend has it on her blog and I don't think you can adjust it.
I vote just get rid of it!!!!
FBQSH!!
Jo, cute video. I see the black birds. I was reading on the Wildwatch page, you can't get into where the heron are, but you can stand on a bridge and use binoculars.
Eagle at LW.
Now both at LW.
I checked my blog, either you have WV or you don't. You can however limit comments to people registered with the blog.
LIMIT COMMENTS.......LOL!!!
daxil, hmmm think I had some of that in the hospital:)
BWE is awake and alert
Yeah Jo 20 day per person. (Yeah that will work) What I meant was only allow those who are registered comment
And just like that the birds all leave. I assumed they stayed all night, but most of them left. Eagles left LW.
Jill & Mits
I think they are saying that they would limit comments to only those registered on the blog ( Not limit the # of comments of people that are registered on the blog)
Remember that Anyone can register onto this blog. Like Jon and all the other spammers......
Jill, isn't that what we are doing already with the I.D. and password??
If it's "all or nothing", I'm with Mits and the others. Get rid of it!!
(iznfabej, I think it says!)

roflmbo, Megan!!!
Hey There Seed Sower: I was wondering where you were
It is so good to have our Preaching Meteorologist back!
dprvy!
AMEN
You think it is almost Spring ?
Jo sorry I thougth you made the comment it was Mits. There appear to be two levels of verification that you can use on the blog when registering.
In Bedford, I saw robins all over the place! I got so excited!
Yes, it is good to have her back, but it makes me wish that was my forecast!
Sounds like a good day to go look for eagles. HUMMM
get out there, Jill
hee hee Jo I love it....showed it to hubby he cracked up lol
Have a few things to do in the morning then heading north to "McDonalds"
Well, folks, I need to do some grocery shopping, plus get some dinner, so I think I shall sign off for tonight.
Jim
GOOD NIGHT, EVERYONE. HAVE A GREAT, RESTFUL NIGHT, AND GET READY FOR THE NEW EGGS AND THE NEW CHICKS PROBABLY DUE NEXT WEEK.
[:~)]
Jim
shutting down for tonight...GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
BWE sound asleep.........
Who is getting up at 3am and leaving a comment about BWE ?
Forget it - I don't think anyone would be wide awake enough at 3am to
type the word verification letters lol
Good night JIm and Mits.
Well Jo if I were working I would probably be up. Hubby gets up at 4 and usually wakes me up, would that be good enough? O
From the looks of the eggs earlier, I think it will be well after everyone is awake.
Time to turn off the computer and call it a night. TTYT
Night all
Momma BW is awake again.
Awwww, mema jo, thanks! I will look at that tmrw. Hubby wants to watch a movie with me. Sorry it took so long to get back to you! I took some homemade chicken soup over to my mom's and dad's. My mom has not been feeling well and my dad has been doing all the cooking so thought I'd give him a break. I am off now for the night. See you all tmrw! Sweet dreams to you all :-)
Good night, Mits Dana and Karen.
Had a nice afternoon of shopping with the college kid. Bought him 2 nice coats for his birthday, one dressy, one casual. Then we went to Macaroni Grille for dinner. I'm still stuffed!
I see we still don't have a hatch yet at BWE
And our cam is still down...booo hoo!
Headed off line for the night
4 am comment will be great Jill! lol
Good night anyone who is still up
Pleasant dreams & peaceful sleep
Prayers for all needs being said
Remember that Wanda is down the road
Good Morning all Early Birders.....
BW up and moving, maybe rolling eggs. And of course the cam will go off shortly
Paula, BW has been restless all night. Far as I can tell no hatching yet.
BWE is up
Looks to be turning eggs...
Offline. Next to last refresh showed something at her shoulder, looked a bit fuzzy but couldn't tell.
Gnite Jo! Suz will be here at 4am to comment on BWE!!
Buogf - Yay!
BWE off for the night
As much as she has turned them tonight, they are getting dizzy
YAY, I don't have to get up. LOL
Back to the other page to catch up...
Paula, you will find that we nominated you to tell Steve to turn off the wv. LOL. Oh and Dana saw an eagle. That was about all the excitement today.
Yup, I read it all!
I'll send Steve an email....I think he was just thinking about it for a couple of days, anyway.
It apparently was a royal pain to almost everybody today. Had to enter it multiple times. I haven't had a problem but it is a little inconveniet.
Oh crap. Didn't even see it til I hit enter.
wv sux. HUMMMM.
We are supposed to get 1-2inches of rain Tuesday. Should we take Belle an umbrella tomorrow?
Good Morning, world. Another Monday. Wonder what new things this day will bring. I see we a)don't have an NCTC cam, the entire FWS website is down, and b) we don't have a BW baby yet.

Not so bad this morning, 37° in PA, 39° here. Nice weekend too, and no snow/rain/ice/wind. Not too shabby a day.
Have to check out other cams, and try to see what I missed.
All have a great eagle/panda day.
Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend, Suz. No, BW didn't hatch, yet; and no, Norfolk didn't lay again yet. WV cam was down all day, Sunday. Don't know if they're starting up the ancient curse of the weekend cam again or not. What do you think?
Some of the other nests like FL are moving along as expected.
Maybe we'll have better luck today..

Head back under wing, going back to sleep. (BW)

Now the other Tesoro eagle has decided to do wing flaps. Our BW eagle is awake and waiting for either a switch, or breakfast.

It's good to be here.

Hey, Butterfly, long time no hear! I'm sorry to hear about problems already! Hope the rest of the trip is worry free!!! Hope your dad's hand heal quickly! At least they're on the way, I know Wanda was really looking forward to this trip. Thanks for the update, keep us posted. Maybe they won't have any more wind down south and out west!
Morning, early bird Dave.
Lots of deer in PA. Still can't get NBG back up. Bummer. The flamingos are all up and about.
Good morning everyone. Sorry to hear Wanda and Gene have started out having such a time but hopefully it will be all good from here. Hopefully our cam will be up some time this morning.
It is supposed to be a beautiful day today in Bluefield!
Oh, here comes out 6-point!
BWE just turned eggs again, but right back down. Lost the PA cam, but got it back opened right away. TEsoro eaglets have settled down, now just waiting for food, I'm sure.

In looking at the 10-day forecast for Shepherdstown, it does not look like there is any snow in the forecast! YEAH! I hope it stays that way!
Oh, both mom and dad are in the hotel.
Morning, Sharon.
Eagle, BWO.
Something is in ME nest, but no idea what it is. Just popped up, looked like it is in the nest. If I didn't know better, I'd swear it was an eaglet, fuzzy one. But they don't even have eggs yet, so that can't be. Sure wish it would stick it's head up again.
