I meant for this to be the last one on the previous thread... Hopefully no one fell through the split! lol

Good Evening Everyone!

Love your Picture Anne
Glad your home Sharon

Need to read comments since I last said BBL

Anne-Marie said...

OK Jo it worked for one picture but how do I get more on there like Donnie?

Anne-Marie said...

Jo does this mean that because the eggs didnt hatch this weekend that there is a problem?

Lolly said...

What do you know....I finally get the live feed and Belle is asleep! I just walked away from the computer, left real player loading and it finally got on.

Anne-Marie said...

eggs alone on PH

wvgal_dana said...

wvgal_dana said...

Deer on deer cam

deb said...

I am home from my trip and see I didn't miss a hatching. What about BWE? How are the feedings going?

Eagle at LW.

paula eagleholic said...

LOL - Jo, I fell through for awhile!

Poor Loyola got beat by 2 at the end of the game!

paula eagleholic said...

No, Anne, there is no problem because we didn't have a hatch this weekend...I think most of us think this weekend would have been on the very earliest side of the hatching dates...Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday would be more likely

paula eagleholic said...

BWE seems good, Deb

deb said...

I see CO has three eggs. Did BC lay another one?

deb said...

Both eagles at LW.

deb said...

I saw our eggs for a few seconds.

wvgal_dana said...

lolly glad you got the live feed up yeahhhh ( :

Deb welcome back

Paula if I would have known you fell through too. We could have used the same fire department truck and guys ( : lol

paula eagleholic said...

Yup, BC has 3 now also...

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle awake

paula eagleholic said...

Diggin and rolling

paula eagleholic said...

Wiggle wiggle :):)

paula eagleholic said...

Boy she really works those eggs under her

paula eagleholic said...

Tucked that head right back in...

deb said...

Thanks, Paula, for the info.

Lolly said...

Dana, thanks! Now I want to see some action!

Mema Jo said...

I bet you all thought I feel through the split.. Too much to read ..
Welcome back Deb - I thought you were here when CO and BC had their 3 egg count. BC always has 1 vanilla & 1 dark brown chocolate & 1 light brown chocolate eggs! lol

Lolly- You better let our tired bird sleep! lol I bet you won't put that real player down tonight!

Anne - you're talking about making a blog page --NatureNut is doing a great job on hers & Paula is an expert & can help you. I am just now starting to think about making a blog page.

Mema Jo said...

I am not changing my previous comment just to correct the spelling of
FELL THROUGH THE SPLIT........

Lolly said...

Okay, I'll be very quiet and let her sleep. lol I remember the nights staying up with babies and grandbabies. And, you're right, I do not want to turn it off!!!!! Have any of you just let it play all night?

Mema Jo said...

You just gotta be watching Lollie

floralgirl said...

She just rolled the eggs again, nice shot of all 3. Now she's getting comfy...back to sleep.

Mema Jo said...

Lollie on Real Player under VIEW

ON TOP You have 3 choices



I don't remember getting up, taking care of an infant and just wiggling right back to sleep as fast as our eagles do!!

Mema Jo said...

Lollie - you know I meant to type
Lolly....... right?

I may need a break if I make many more typos!

Lolly said...

Right! No problem1 I have been called worse! lol

Lolly said...

I love watching Momma Owl on cam2. Makes me think of the old lady who lived in a show, that had sooo many children she didn't know what to do!

wvgal_dana said...

Racoon on deer cam

wvgal_dana said...

There's his striped tail

carolinabeachmom said...

Hey Lolly. now you are right up my alley. with the nursery rhymes. I'm a kindergarten assistant for many ears and a little nuts because of it.

wvgal_dana said...

Did anyone see the raccoon on the deer cam?

carolinabeachmom said...

As I have been reading blog, I see we don't have a hatching yet And you poor people that got lost in the split. If you had let me know I could have had my husband call out the jColington Fire Dept from the beach that he belongs to and get you out. I guess your fire dept. did ok tho.

JO is still having trouble getting her mind straight for spelling since the split. It will be ok in a bit JO. :)

carolinabeachmom said...

I would have liked to be with Jim and Karen with their nice warm weather today. I looked like an idiot in Winchester, as I was the only one it seemed walking around in a winter coat. They think the forties is like springtime.m and I was freezing;

carolinabeachmom said...

Went to Olive Garden to wind up our weekend up here. Will start back for the Outer Banks after eating breakfast with Josh at the Cracker Barrel. that has been tradition.

Glad to see that Sharon and Deb got back from their trips in one piece. All is right with the world.

Lolly said...

Candy.....I am retired from kindergarten teaching. Know what you mean....gotta be a little nuts, but don't you love it?!

Lolly said...

Yes, Dana, I saw the raccoon. He stayed around for quite a while.

carolinabeachmom said...

:)As you can still see. O sill haven't located the refresh button on Josh's puter.

carolinabeachmom said...

Well Lolly, this is my twenty fifth year in K. Mayabe you and I should open up a preschool! I really wish I was a little younger so I could keep going for many more years, but then again, I want to be able to get on with these people full time and enjoy. I have maybe a year to go yet and can't wait to be on here full time. I have learned soooooo much and seen so much; it has just been a wonderful experience.

carolinabeachmom said...

:)

Lolly said...

I retired 8 years ago. I just chase after three grandsons now. That enough for me! Teaching left me so tired! I put my all into it!

wvgal_dana said...

Well ladies I am out of here for tonight. Take care everyone. Night...

Mema Jo said...

I did take a short break. Hi Candy - I think your Winchester trip has turned out very nicely for you and your family.Did your new intended DIL do anything with you all and Josh?

I was wondering when you and Lolly would see that you both had the same profession

Lolly said...

Nite, Dana!

Mema Jo said...

I see BWE and NCTC Eagles are sleeping with head tucked under wing.

I bet by tomorrow this time
we have a little grey fuzzie
bobble head in our nest!

Mema Jo said...

Nite Dana. Rest well

carolinabeachmom said...

carolinabeachmom said...

Lolly That is where I am at this year. You are on the go every minute and I just come home nights so tired I can lay down and sleep the night away.

Mema Jo said...

Candy You mentioned about the computers refresh button.....

CTRL F5

Does that do it for you.

Jill said...

Candy, I don't wear a coat until it gets in the 20's. OR very windy like last night. Remember laying in the sun in college when it was 50. No I don't do that anymore. LOL Was a very sunny day here. Not too bad.

Dana-The wind last night destroyed the sign at the Sprint store by the mall, knocked it completely down.

Lolly said...

I feel like I have a life again. My first grandson was born 5 months after I retired. I love being able to help out with them when needed. I retired early as Jack retired the same year. We now travel, read, babysit, garden, sleep in. Retirement is wonderful!

carolinabeachmom said...

Good night and peaceful dreams DANA.

JO my future DIL is graduating from East Carolina in Greenville, NC this May. She is home now on spring break. So this was the last birthday as a single for Josh, and thanks, we did have a wonderful weekend with him. There is sad part and a good part for me. The happy part for me is, I think he will be moving back to NC after they get married, BUT out in the middle of the state somewhere. His future is from the beach area and Mom lives just up the road a little in Currituck co. The sad part is that he will no longer live in the beautiful Shennandoah Valley and close to our eagles. It will ge a hard time for him as he will be finding a new job and starting over. The nice part for me will be that they will be closer to home than he is now.

Lolly said...

Hi Jill! Got on the live feed this evening. Tried on and off all day. Finally, just walked off leaving real player loading. Sometime later walked back in and WHOA, I had a picture. I may never turn it off!!!!

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks Jo for the info, but I'm not touching his puter any more than I have to. Tomorrow night I will be back on my own. I was so glad that he asked me if I wanted to use it. I was brought up on the times when youo didn't mess around with anything that wasn't yours.

Mema Jo said...

Candy - When things change, we can usually find something better happening. Just need to keep our eyes and ears wide open! And our MINDS !

Mema Jo said...

Scarface is still hanging out at
Pook's Place.

carolinabeachmom said...

Lolly, the way you and others talk about your retirement, it sounds better and better all the time.

JILL You people up here must be one sturdy bunch. I guess I have been in the south too long. I think it will be 26 years this July. We get cold at the Outer Banks, but not for long stretches of time do we go into the 20's; Maybe the 30's.

Mema Jo said...

Going to take a break - don't know how long it will take me to get use to the time change. Didn't take long when I was still working... With no set schedule I don't know how long it's going to take!
May get ready for bed and force myself to go after our 11:00 news.

carolinabeachmom said...

Well, we have to be up early tomorrow. We are supposed to stop outside Richmond and have lunch with friends of ours from the Outer Banks. amd then head for the beach. All seems quiet in the animal world.

I'll say GOOD NIGHT for now and hopefully will be on tomorrow when I get back home. You all have a wonderful day tomorrow and a peaceful sleep tonight. Tomorrow brings a new day with new things to happen.

GOOD MORNING SUZANNE AND THE PJ CLUB.

Jill said...

Candy I used to live near Norma, up in the mountains then went to school farther up in the mountains. Used to spent my winters in the MTs and summers at the beach as my parents were both from DE. Never learned to ski but I did surf a little when I was younger. Not many good waves that far north tho. Funny I don't mind the heat either. Anything above 20 and lower than 100, I am okay with.

Jill said...

Lolly, I leave mine up all the time now. Seems like almost everytime I shut it down I have a pain trying to get it back..

carolinabeachmom said...

:)

Lolly said...

Nite Candy!

Lolly said...

I do plan to leave it on, however the other night it was on and while Jack was on the computer he said it "timed out".????

Lolly said...

Momma owl is really struggling to keep all those babies under her! lol

NatureNut said...

Lolly, Hooray for you!! How long did you leave it on to "Load"? I tried that & went away for about 15minutes & it was still doing the 1/2 circle of spokes on right side of the word Real. On the bottom left corner it flips back & forth from "loading" to the Eagle Cam address.
DUH?!

paula eagleholic said...

An exciting Basketball day here....sons team won as well, they play in the MAAC conference championship game tomorrow night on ESPN2 - Rider Vs Sienna - Root for Rider!!!

He's on the bus and headed back to NJ from Albany.

Lolly said...

Our problems sound exactly the same. I think I was away for about 45 minutes. I really do not know though when it started up. I have tried that before and it did not work. Keep trying!

Jill said...

If it says loading and doesn't have a percentage beside it after a few seconds,it probably won't load.

paula eagleholic said...

LOL Jo, my time is all screwed up - was not the day to sleep in late! I ate breakfast at 3pm and dinner at 9pm - still ready to do stuff- hopefully I can get to bed by midnight!

paula eagleholic said...

Gotta go clean the dryer vent...

Lolly said...

Paula, sounds like you have a pressing job to do. lol

NatureNut said...

Thx! Good to see it's the same problem & maybe not our 'puters.
I'm going to let it run for a long time & if it doesn't work, I'll remove it tomorrow & reinstall. Seems that worked for some.
I did see it the first day, but that was on the older Real in the 'puter. Like a dummy I dwnlded the new one!

Lolly said...

Daddy owl paying a visit!

Lolly said...

I down loaded several times. That did not work. I just do not know what the problem could be. Talked with an "expert", but he was no help. Did say he had some diagnostic tools if we want him to come out. He is a friend, but not going to have him drive over as we are out a ways.

Mema Jo said...

WildWatch Owl Cam 2

You can see some of the newly hatched owls - pretty large!

NatureNut said...

Jill, No percentage showing. I went on RP Help/Support yesterday & sent in about prroblem, but have no reply yet.
Oh well, as Scarlet says, "tomorrow is another day"!

Mema Jo said...

I had trouble getting the real player to work. I have firefox & I knew I recently did an Upgrade on the real player. I had to get my grandson (IT knowledge) to fix mine. I have a
Media Player Classic ... no problem since he worked on it.

Jill said...

The times that mine just said loading with no percentage it did not load. I noticed when it says % it seems to load everytime.

Lolly said...

Blogger through me off!

Lolly said...

Tried to make comments about the baby owls and couldn't, but I'm back now.

Lolly said...

Momma owl is back now, but while the babies were uncovered I tried to count them. No luck! I just love watching her try to keep them covered. Wish it was live feed.

Mema Jo said...

The player will say Playing
then change to Buffering with a percentage.. 100% & picture is there

Lolly said...

Nite all! Time to get away from the puter and ready for bed! Maybe tomorrow more action!

Mema Jo said...

Well I am taking a chance & turning mine off for the evening.

Good Night everyone
Peace to You & Yours
Prayers for all needs being said

Good Monday Morning
All of you Early Birders


Is this going to be our first
hatching day???? I hope!!!

KarenInCali said...

Got an email reply from Dr. Sharpe at Channel Islands. He estimates Mar. 26 for the 1st egg and the 30th for the 2nd of eagles #10 and #26 at PH so Paula was right. #10 (male) seems to be on the nest more than #26. Wish they had infrared so we could see at night like NCTC. Oh well, maybe someday :) They sleep mostly at night anyway LOL!

paula eagleholic said...

Well got the dryer vent cleaned...

Dishes...not!

Oh well, tomorrow is another day!

Our eagle is snoozing!

Night all!

Jill said...

Okay Belle just gave me a heart attack. As I brought the camera back up, she was rolling the eggs. One looked like it had a dark spot on it. After I rewound it, I figured out it was something on one of her talons. Live feed with rewind is great.

Jill said...

Another roll around 1:30 or 1:45

movin said...

GOOD NIGHT, EVERYBODY...

Hope, now that everybody has returned from a trip or gotten rested up this weekend, that you all have a great coming week. [:~D]

P.S. Good pic, Anne-Marie

Jim

Suzanne said...

Good morning, world. I see we still don't have a baby at our nest yet. I was kinda thinking one would hatch yesterday, but guess not. Glad to see they made it through the horrible wind storm Friday, and we had flurries Sat, but just little flurries. Adult eagle on BW chicks, cam is fuzzy, so I'm thinking rain drops? Had some serious rain over the weekend. But... not too bad today, no wind, and 23° in PA, 33° here in VA, so not really bad. Had to scrape my car this morning. Ugh. I'm ready for Spring!
All have a great eagle/panda day. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!

Suzanne said...

Our eagle just woke up, turning eggs. Can see eggs, don't see any fuzzies.

Suzanne said...

Darn, brought Norfolk up and don't see an eagle in the nest, so guess we don't have an egg there. Hopefully soon!

Suzanne said...

Have to say...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SUNNY
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

Sunny, hope you have an absolutely wonderful day today, and get just everything you want!! Maybe we'll even get a chick for your birthday, who knows?

Suzanne said...

Reading back blogs, didn't I read that it's NatureNut's Birthday too? Happy Birthday, NatureNut! Hope you have an absolutely wonderful day today!

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD MONDAY MORNING TO YOU SUZANNE. gLAD TO SEE YOU MADE IT IN SAFELY. I am still at Josh's,but getting ready to head south after breakfast at Cracker Barrel this am. I hope you had a very nice weekend.

carolinabeachmom said...

Before I forget, I'll join in Suzanne's chorus and sing:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
hAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SUNNY AND NATURNUT,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU BOTH!

May our eagle, Liberty and Belle, present you the most precious gift for your birthdays; a new baby chicklet, bobblehead or fuzzy. Whatever you want to call it.
Hope you both have a lovely day. I think this is the first time we have had two birthdays on the same day.

floralgirl said...

Hope you have a very happy Birthday Sunny! and happy Birthday to you Nature Nut

carolinabeachmom said...

JILL I saw the motions at lam an saw the black spot too and got all excited. I just happened to wake up and wander over to the computer in time to see her getting up. Then it looked like she put some more fluff on top of the eggs and settled back down again. I am so glad you reran it and saw it wasn't anything. Then I could go back to slep.

carolinabeachmom said...

Good morning MEGAN. You are sure up early today. Our parent eagle has gone back to resting this morning. All looks quiet at our nest.
I wish you would get the weather warmer and get some of your pretty flowers blooming. That will be a happy day.

floralgirl said...

Morning Candy and Suzanne:)

carolinabeachmom said...

Well, Josh has finally come back from the gym. He meets a friend there every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings to work out at 5 am. He must be nuts, but that is the only time they can do it. I can think of better things to do with my time at that hour. SLEEP!

Suzanne said...

Good morning, Candy and Megan! Candy, I know you've had a good visit with Josh, and you be careful driving home! At least you'll have decent weather, no rain or snow.
We don't have any chick yet, s/he has been up a couple times, and eggs are intact. Thought sure one would hatch yesterday, but guess not. They'll hatch when they're ready, I guess.

Suzanne said...

LOL, I'm with you, Candy! I would be sleeping if I could!! Had a terrible time going to sleep last night with the time change. My BR has a west window, so it stays light until the sun goes down. Hard to get used to every year.

carolinabeachmom said...

:)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning everyone.

Happy Birthday Sunny and naturenut!

I hope all have a wonderful day.

carolinabeachmom said...

SIZAMME. The only thing I like about the time change is that I can come home from work and have some daylight time left to do things. I can imagine how had it is for you to get to sleep with it still being daylight out, and then having to get up and drive to work the way you do. Now you know why we all worry about your goings and comings.

carolinabeachmom said...

Good morning to you Sharon. Good to see you are up and watching. Your eagle eye might just spot something at the nest that none of us can catch. :) Now if their is a hatching, you'll surely see it.

carolinabeachmom said...

That parent of ours is wiggling down on the eggs again. Does it look like she is tenting or is that a normal pose for this early?

carolinabeachmom said...

Hey SUZANNE, can you tell I am typing in the dark? Boy did I murder your name that time. It kind of looked like one of the word verifications. :(

carolinabeachmom said...

;)

carolinabeachmom said...

Well, I think I had bette start geting dressed and thing packed into the car. I hope you all have a wonderful day today and I will talk at you when I get home later.

SUZANNE you have a safe trip home today and give Gypsy a litle hug for me; the rsst of your kitties also.

See you all later back in No. Carolina.

Suzanne said...

BW parent FINALLY got up and the chicks are both snuggling in their sleep. Adorable!

Suzanne said...

Candy, I knew what you meant! You be careful driving! Enjoy your breakfast.
Morning, Sharon.

Suzanne said...

BW chicks are so close they look like one big fuzzball.

floralgirl said...

Both our nest.

Suzanne said...

Eagle in nest, eagle on branch at NBG. Our BW chicks still alone. Snuggling to keep warm.

floralgirl said...

Wow, those wings are so huge! Still see three intact eggs. They're finally switching places, think she was too comfy to get up at first.

Suzanne said...

Megan, check out the extreme birdfeeding site you posted the other day. There are a whole bunch of deer on there eating seeds! Wow, very cool.

Suzanne said...

Parent back on BW chicks! Sure glad, bet they were getting chilly!

Jill said...

Megan are you sure that was her on the eggs? One that flew in looked awfully big and wing feathers crossed the tail.
