Hi eagle & eaglet lovers. Nice sunny day here on this mountain. What is that black thing in BW nest. Hey, Dave - I figure that you are gone, but wanted to let you know I looked up your black astralop chickens. They are very pretty. Have you ever seen the Murray McMurrary Hatchery catalog? There are lots of rare breeds of chickens and other fowl in it. Check it out at www.mcmurrayhatchery.com. I order a calendar from them some years. It has pictures of beautiful rare breeds of chickens.
No, eagles don't pee. The poop shoot contains both.
good to know:)
Thanks for the notes on raising cain!
Looks like she chased something off
Hey thanks, Carol, that is a cool website.
I want to ask PAULA??---HOW DID SHE RAISE CAIN???----------------My MOTHER raised 3 'CAINS'---ME--MY BROTHER & SISTER!!---ho!---CAIN is my maiden name!!---Yeah!--we started it all!!-----(back to check writing)
Hi Carol still love your pic gal
Norma - She will be raising "3 Cains" as well! HO!
Hummm what is the new brown thing at BWE?
I agree with the answer that was given. It is included with the "poop shoot".
2 for 1 Dana? LOL
Dana - I'm in the mood for Spring - so it was time to change the polar bear to flowers. Since the rain on Tuesday, I can see that my grass is getting green and is growing. Nice to see, but I hate mowing!
Well, I sort of figured it was in the poop shoot but just had to ask! You never know until you ask!
Is Norfolk still down?
Norfolk is working now.
FEEDING TIME AGAIN BW
BW eaglets visible. Norma - they do look like little bandits with their black eyes. I don't remember past eaglets having such black eye markings.
egg turning our nest
humm Megan I have a black screen for Norfolk.
Norfolk ok here.
BOTH EAGLES OUTR NEST
both our nest
LOL.....LIB IS TAKING OUT THE TRASH.
EAGLE AT NORFOLK
Nope leaving with a snack
MY nORFOLK JUST WENT DOWN
That Norfolk cam goes down a lot... eagle sure is focused on something in the sky right now.
Two at BWE!!
Female eagle has flown into Norfolk nest again.
[:~)]
Jim
Both in nest at BW. One left. Looks like something was brought. Can't tell for sure. Feeding now.
Back on eaglets now.
Hey, everybody, I don't know if you know it, but I just found a fresh news article, blog entry and video on Bai and ZZ at the SD site.
Check them out.
[:~)]
Jim
I see at least the front part of Dad eagle is perched at BWO, and if I'm not mistaken, there a feathers in the bottom of the box that weren't there earlier, so maybe he caught a water fowl for the family dinner.
[:~)]
Jim
She was at Norfolk nest for quite a while. She flew out, looked like for the night. Now both are at the nest again.
[:~)]
Jim
BW chicks are visible and might be getting fed soon.
[:~)]
Jim
our eagle looking around
I still have 5 1/2 hours until I have to give up on my eaglet birthday present. I have to go out for a while. I will be back a little past 9, so keep a close eye for me and get pictures in case my birthday present is hatched!
looks really antsy tonight, Sharon
well, not so antsy now, sleeping
I must report that Genie(Jewell) and I had a really GREAT time and I enjoyed meeting her hubby Rudy too!
Even Gertrude and Ralph came to the back door to meet me. She said it was the first time they have been there together since Jan. 27th. BOY, do I feel special!!!
More later, time to have some supper.
The #$%&** Goggle Guy got me!
And all I said was the Mits you have your evening planned out for you - at least until 9:00. If the egg were laid on the 1st or 2nd, I'd say it really could hatch.
Ok trying to get past the Google Guy
Iris If Gertrude & Ralph came to greet you -
Who was on the eggs?
how do you save a pic on the video
ok Iris, I know you mention some type of bird this a.m., but can't remember who Gertude and Ralph are?
our eagle is awake
that was a big egg-roll
she is calling or she has a furball caught in her throat
Hi, aj, I don't know, all the knowledgeable people aren't here right now, sorry
our eagle asleep, and, now BW is awake
Mits: Gertrude & Ralph are the 2 sandhill cranes that Genie (Jewell) has had around her home for quite a few years down in Florida. Little General was the last little one she kept us posted on & did a good many videos.
nope BW went back to sleep
Hi AJ I'm here but not knowledgeable on the Live Feed pictures. I think you have to have a special program. Paula or Glo could give you the info you need. Paula should be on later.
Well Jo, that is the 64,000 dollar question.
Genie and I stopped by the place where the nest is and guess what?
At that time Ralph was on the nest! We may never know what is going on there, but the eggs are way past the date for hatching. As Gertrude and Ralph left Genie's back yard they did a fantastic "dance"! I swear they look like ballet dancers - so graceful. MTBR I guess concerning the eggs and if they will hatch.
We had a terrible storm when we were coming back to Genie's house after our lunch. High winds and buckets of rain. Had to wait awhile to leave so it would be safe to travel home (usually about an hour) Today it took nearly 1hour and 45 minutes!
Anyway, when it slowed down a bit, Genie went over to the nest site and one of the Sandhills was on the nest and the other was no where to be seen.
Hope they are both OK and that they have another clutch of eggs if these fail to hatch.
I was so thrilled to see them up close and in person - they are soooooooo beautiful.
Good luck t G & R...our eagle awake again
Helen, I'm sorry, Gertrude and Ralph are the Sandhill Cranes that Genie sent pictures of last season. Their baby was Little Gen. or Little General...
They had two eggs this year, but so far neither one has hatched and they are past due by about 4 days or so.
AJ I use Snag It. I bought the full version but I there is a trial version you can test out.
I am not sure what Paula uses, But I think I have read that its not Snag It. Perhaps she will be in later to give you here suggestions on how to get captures fromt he live feed.
oh dear.....:(
Iris - You got to see their dance!!
WHOO HOO
I remember the video of them dancing!
I loved it. Like you and Genie, I hope they are wise enough to know if those 2 eggs are NOT going to hatch so that they can get on with another clutch or even just 1 good egg would do the trick!
Mits: I wonder what is keeping
our eagle awake! Talking Eggs?
Hi all. I have a question. I have some current eagle and osprey pictures I'd like to share.Is there anyplace to email? How does that work? I saw Paula's info about videos & pics on Eaglet Momsters. Would that be the place to go to do this? Thx
P.S. My B'day is the 10th & I'm hoping for a chick too!! :-)
LOOK AT THOSE 3 EGGS WOULD YOU
Good evening everyone and thank you sooo much for the many Birthday wishes! :) I just got back from a shopping trip with my husband to Dulles Town Center. I had a blast. :) Too bad I have to go back to work tomorrow. :(
Thank you for all your cards too!:)
I'm so excited about the hummingbird! I didn't know she would lay another clutch of eggs.
Does anyone else get an error message when you click on the link for the live feed?
Danelle, Happy Birthday. Love Dulles Town Center. You know that is where somebody saw an eagle last week. Well about 2 miles from there.
I have had my live feed up all day, no problem.
holy toledo!!!! did our eagle lose its head??
gee, I haven't been to Dulles Town Center in years...glad you had a great BD, Danelle.
ok see the head now, But Jo, its been a tad restless tonight
So to get the live feed, you are just clicking on the link?
That is the way it is supposed to happen, have had my up all day.
Hello Naturenut! We would all love to see your pictures - especially of the eagles & osprey! I am not certain where Paula would suggest them to be placed. I know that Bob Quinn has his albums on display on a separate site - Deb on this blog has us double click her name & go into her blog page to view her photos. You may wish to do that.
I would invite you at this time to join up to the Eaglet Momsters site
Click on this link & sign up as a new user
maybe my version of real player is old. I'm installing the one they recommend right now.
Hey naturenut! My b-day is on the 10th, too. We sure have a lot of March b-days on here.
I can't get the live cam. Are you all watching it? I don't see where anyone mentioned not getting it.
Yes sunny I am watching it
Well after I said mine was up all day, something killed my internet explorer and now I can't get live feed back. If you have it up, don't take it down, might not work.
With my luck, an egg will hatch tonight.
Danelle/Sunny does it say "an error has occurred, network administrator will be notified"?
My live feed is up Sunny.
AJ - if you're still on
I cheat & keep the eagle cam up along with the live feed. I snap pics from the regular eagle cam.
Jill thats what I am getting..
Jo has yours been up for awhile? MIne was up all day then IE shut down and now I can't get it back.
Sunny & others- Can you put your real player up - then copy & paste the url address from the NCTC site
It may start then rather then click on the url address - I started mine the way I just described because I got the Error On Request & that
The details of this error have been emailed to the web site administrator.
It might work for you
Here comes Spidey!
Is Sharon home yet?
Hi everybody, I'm home. boy I wish it were Friday. I have decided that as soon as I get this knee fixed I am going to retire. I will be 66 next month and its my turn.. I have worked since I was 16. Even through pg..
that man has asked me to marry him. A few months will give me time to decide.
Welcome natureNut. You would fit right in here . We are all nuts of different kinds. :)
does that mean I should keep it up all night.....Paula will be happy as we are....Mt. St. Marys' University won 80 to 70 in their 1st playoff game tonight, our son used our tickets tonight...GO MOUNT!:)
I would leave it up Mits. Going to try Jo's idea.
It worked. Thanks Jo.
Whoo Hoo! MT St Mary's just advanced to the NEC semi-finals!!
Go Mount!!
Whoo Hoo! Mits~
I forgot to ask you if he was going to the game!!
he would have, but he had to be in NY today, so our son took the tickets.....the Mount called the other day to see if we wanted to sell our tickets, we said h#$% no.
WOW Hedi!!!
Here is the direct link that you can copy and paste into your real player

Oh Boy! Anne What You Gonna Do?
Are you nervous! How many months before you have to say Yes, Maybe or No?
You know you don't like ticks! lol
YES, ANNEMARIE, what is up with that?????
sorry didn't comment sooner, been cleaning out mail
Naturenut - A good place for your pictures would be Photobucket or Picasa....then you can post the link here, or join the momster group and send the link through the email
HA! I got WAX and I'll Take it!!
PAULA, just found out , my son, and d-i-l and the girls went to the game.
Well, I am back and I do not see any comments that we have an eaglet! :( Really thought it was too early for a hatch but a girl could dream, you know?
Birthday cake was wonderful. Yellow cake with buttercream icing and she even decorated it for me and Becky. It was nice!
sounds deelish

Egg rolling
AJ your the best. I have to hit the sack.
Yes Belle is pretty restless. I don't know if there will be a hatch tonight BUT I do think we have some little ones letting MaMa know to get prepared as hatching is not at all far away. she hears them. JMHO
my security was blocking google io have that changed now . thanks

Good night, all!
Thank you AJ for being our eyes throughout the night! Suzanne should be coming in around 4am... Rain won't start until tomorrow pm hrs so they said. Oh happy days of hatchings!!!
Good Night everyone in Eagle Land
Pleasant dreams & restful sleep
Prayers for all being said
Suzanne - Ms Owl at the WildWatch Hotel had a hatching.....
Link to Ms Owl
Anne, that is fantastic news!!! You take all the time you need to be sure, but your heart will know!
((((Hugs))))
Wow Live feed is great. I can go back and see what I missed.
Checking eggs @ 1:19 am
Egg check around 2 am.. (was reading mail, used rewind to see it)
bell has got off the nest twice and looked at the eggs i think she is expecting a little eagle any time
Good Friday morning, world. Morning Jill and AJ if you guys are still up. Lib just woke up, so guess he's still restless. BW eagle is sound asleep, head under wings. Wonder if we'll get a chick today? Wouldn't that be cool!
Not bad out, no wind. 36° in PA, 39° here in VA. But guess we're gonna get more rain today and tonight. They said about an additional inch on top of what we got the other day. So that should make for some nice flooding! What isn't already flooding, may be this time tomorrow. Sure glad it's Sat and I don't have to go anywhere.
Gonna go open cams, see what I missed. All have a great eagle/panda day. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
Ok, our eagle has head back under wings and going back to sleep.
Oh my goodness, Tai's up eating bamboo! Gives new meaning to midnight snack!
GOOD MORNING, SUZ.
I slept earlier, got up to visit the facilities, and I'm just about tired enough to sleep again.
I peeked in to say "hi" and see if our eggs have begun to hatch yet...
How are you doing? I forgot to ask how you made it home last Friday after getting off later..middle of rush hour, actually.
[:~)]
Jim
Just glancing back from yesterday, I see where Mrs Owl hotel had a hatching! You sure called that one, Jo! Few hours early, but very good call! How cool. Now we can watch baby owls. AT least for a little while, don't watch them after maybe the 3rd one has hatched. They're vicious to each other, I'd rather not watch.
OW, SHE JUST GOT UP, baby is laying over some eggs, and mom is looking up at the entrance. And out of the corner of her eye to the cam, that's wierd! "Do you see my baby?" 2:08 there.
She's keeping her eye on the entrance. May be waiting for a food delivery.
Both our eagles are sleeping well. Mrs owl in hotel is really keeping an eye on the entrance, but don't see any shadows on the wall, so maybe she hears hubby getting breakfast..
Wow, good morning, Jim. Hope you sleep well when you go back to bed. I was really sleeping well when that ol' alarm went off this morning! Didn't want to get up, but kinda had to.
Oh, last Friday I got home at 1930! Through the parking lot!! But it wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be, only took an extra 45 minutes or so. Less than I thought it would, so was grateful for that!
Egg turning our nest. Could see 3 beautiful eggs!
Blogger ate my last post. Lady BW just got up off her babies, and they're both sound asleep. Too cute.
Morning, Suzanne;) Ican't get the live feed going this morning- do you have the same problem?
Morning, Megan. Can't get the live feed here at all, never could. But the 30 sec is not always refreshing at 30 sec's either. Takes 60-90 sometimes.
Tesoro chicks are up, and there is now an eagle in the NBG nest. Nest was MT when I first brought it up, so guess we don't have an egg yet.
I see there is an eagle in the Norfolk nest, not sure how long it's been there.
Tesoro eaglets are feeding themselves and doing wing flaps. NBG eagle is up and looking in the nest now. Wonder if she's ready to lay an egg yet? She should be!
Both eagles at Norfolk now
Mate just arrived at NBG. If that's was the Mrs in the nest, she's sure wiggling her butt. Standing over egg cup now, and hubby looking in it too. Did she lay an egg? Looks like she's pulling grasses in around the egg cup. They're not too zoomed in, so can't see what's in there. Oh, he has his head down in the cup. Sure hope she laid an egg! Now they're both looking and moving grasses, and there are our BW babies, parent just got up!
parent arrived in Tesoro, parent BW left, babies snuggling and sleeping, and one eagle flew to the left branch in NBG. Oh, parent in Tesoro just took off. One NBG parent still working around the egg cup. Now the other eagllet in Tesoro has whatever the food is. They're still in silhouette, so can't see who is who.
Well, that answers that question. Both NBG eagles flew off, nest MT. So guess no egg at the moment.
BW parent back and feeding chicks.
Deer are coming out in PA, wing flaps in Tesoro, wow, beautiful! BW chicks still eating, and Mrs owl still waiting for food. Oh, the Tesoro twins are funny, one flaps as big as he/she can, then the other one does it. They are each watching each other doing flaps, how cool. Oh, now first one's turn. NBG eagles are in and out of nest, and BW kids still getting fed.
Our eagle flying off, eggs visible!
Our pic is stuck, but what an awesome shot to get stuck!!
Well, Megan, they are looking for the NBG eagles again...
yep, they're gone again, those eagles are keeping us all guessing...
Megan, look at the buds on the trees! Spring is coming!!! How cool. Oh, NBG I mean, they're still looking for the eagles.
#@*%*#@-why is the cam stuck.... we're to close to an egg hatch for this problem.
Eagle at BWO.
I see thta, Suzanne. They are a little warmer than us, my sister in law lives near Norfolk, she always has stuff blooming in the spring before us. My daffodils have really shot up in the past couple of days. We are expecting some heavy rains today and tomorrow.
cool, I see lisa says osprey have been spotted in southern MD, that's definitely a sign of spring.
Did you see the pic of the osprey she posted? It's beautiful!!
With this warmer weather, and rain, lots of things are going to start shooting up! Hope we don't get another severe snow storm, though. The forsythia down here has been out (last warm spell), then died off when it got cold again. Some may start coming out again, not all of it was out couple weeks ago.
Something is really flying aroudn the Tesoro nest, you can see shadows as it goes by. Sometimes the eaglets watch it, other times they ignore it.
Good morning everybody. I guess I didn't have a birthday delivery last night! Overslept this morning so I have to get my butt in gear and work!
Norfolk cam is down again:( Hello Sharon! no live feed this morning.
Morning, Sharon. I coulda overslept this morning, but then I would have had to deal with traffic. Amazing what a motivator that is to get you up!
both parents at BWE.
Megan, I have had live feed all morning.
NEW THREAD IS UP...GOOD MORNING EVERYONE
