WE DID TOO, STEVEN, THANKS FOR NEW TUESDAY P.M. THREAD:)!!

floralgirl said...

Thanks Steven! Paula, lib came in with something small and wiggling, Belle gulped it down, then flew away.

MITS said...

I'M REALLY CONFUSED, thought it was Belle earlier today, then at the last switch thought it was Lib coming in....

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks for the new thread Steve...I think we're close...really restless today!

Yes there was a switch - down the hatch that fish went! Gulp!

floralgirl said...

ok, who's in the nest now? isn't that lib?

deb said...

It is so nice to know that you all get confused about who is in the nest, too. I don't feel so clueless anymore.

MITS said...

eagles still squawking up in MAINE, AND THE DOGS ARE BARKING

paula eagleholic said...

Yes, that's Lib

paula eagleholic said...

Yes, Deb, it's not hard to get confused....I can tell when Belle is incubating, she really does the wiggle wiggle wiggle. Lib just does a wiggle.

floralgirl said...

Thank you, I thought so.

MITS said...

CLUELESS IS MY MIDDLE NAME,DEB.:)

deb said...

I can usually tell if I see them up, but once they are down in the nest, forget it. The nest is so deep, they get lost in it. I will remember the wiggle hints.

According to the list from Judy, the eggs in OK should be hatching soon, too.

deb said...

Helen, you are way ahead of me in eagle knowledge. I am trying to catch up.

floralgirl said...

both -our nest

floralgirl said...

or not,guess he just got up-sorry

Lolly said...

Paula, did not know if you received my last email. I had an appointment and was gone for a couple of hours. But, yes, we are using the correct address, no, we do not have a firewall. Considering calling a GEEK tomorrow.

MITS said...

off to fix dinner.....bbl

IrisF said...

I came over with you guys, just been looking and lurking today between appointments....

Hurry little one, we want to meet you!

floralgirl said...

info from Reese Lukei: about NGB pair- Today about 11:00am another eagle landed near the new nest at NBG. The female adult followed the bird and landed in the nest. Looks to me like a male Basic III transitional eagle. It stayed around the nest for about an hour. The male showed up about 11:30 and about 11:50 the two adults chased the visitor off.
About 2:00 as I was leaving NBG I got a call that the two adults had returned. I wanted to see if the transitional eagle came back - it did not - so I turned around. Joe Foreman and I were watching the two adults soaring over the north end of the runway when a 737 jet took off. The female was right in the planes flight path and dove at the very last minute. The plane came within 100 feet of the eagles

Jill said...

Megan, I think there was a switch at 7:15. I was on the other thread talking to myself. LOL

Mema Jo said...

Sounds as though Reese & Joe could have had heart failure or at least an eagle rescue.

LOLLY Before you call a geek go ahead and send me your email & I'll see what I can do to get you some help.

Are you using FireFox and do you have Windows XP

floralgirl said...

Thanks, Jill, was doing something else, all I saw was one in the back of the nest, didn't see one leaave or come in..

MITS said...

wow, Megan, just shudder to think what would happen to the jet if it had sucked them in.

Jill said...

http://i.realone.com/product/help/rp11/en/R1P.htm

Lolly, I don't know if you have tried Realplayer Help but the link is above for connection issues.

Lolly said...

Jo, I sent you an email. Thx!

Paula has been fantastic trying to help today.

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks for the heads up, Jill. And your welcome, Lolly...sorry I couldn't help...

IrisF said...

That runway was where NBG's female's first mate was killed a few years ago... Dangerous place and at that time their nest was at the end of the runway.

And 7:15 was about the time that Lib left and Belle came back.

MITS said...

:):) and they tell us humans to stay away from the nests so we don't scare them....all of us together don't make the noise a 737 does....up at the Maine nest, I hear dogs barking, car doors slamming, think I even hear guns at times....

Mema Jo said...

Head tucked under wing......
Spidey's web swinging in the breeze..

WHERE IS OUR BOBBLE HEAD

Jill said...

Megan, it wasn't easy to see if you weren't looking directly at the nest. Outgoing just popped up and the side and jumped. It literally looked like it took a flying leap towards the ground. Other one was immediatly in the nest moving things.


Paula-how can I extend my viewing time more than 30 minutes.

Jill said...

Was I the only one here last night when Spidey crawled across the lens. EEWWWW. Creepy big white spider. YUCK

deb said...

Eagle at LW.

Mema Jo said...

Lolly I have not yet received your email to my knowledge. I realize it will come into my junk mail because of not having your address... I hope I didn't delete it in error....
Want to send again? Give me a clue if it is aol, hotmail, comcast...??

MITS said...

looks like it is playing hide and seek behind the tree trunk, Deb

MITS said...

now it is front and center

MITS said...

a question....this is all new stuff the we saw them put up at NCTC, how did spidey find his way back????

MITS said...

both at LW

MITS said...

our eagle awake

paula eagleholic said...

I've posted some videos on the EM Blog

Eaglet Momsters Blog

deb said...

I hope they lay the eggs so they are not hidden by the tree.

Our eagle is up.

MITS said...

true, Deb, can't seem to find the egg cup in that one yet.

paula eagleholic said...

Those spideys are something else!

MITS said...

he must have been hiding and watching the whole time they were up the tree.

MITS said...

I'm starting to sound like I have been on the computer too long...

MITS said...

ok.....was that part of a shell the eagle pushed away...?

MITS said...

I don't want to go back on the live-feed, did that the other day and got into trouble

Jill said...

She keeps digging in that egg cup our eaglets will have to be full grown to crawl out of it. SHEW

paula eagleholic said...

Just saw that egg roll....looks like her talons show up as really black next to those eggs...

Jill said...

MITS If I am looking at the same thing you were I think it is a leave or something. Eggs looked pretty intact to me.

paula eagleholic said...

No Mits - I've been watching that white thing...not a piece of egg shell...it was to the left of her and Lib earlier

floralgirl said...

Daughter came up and I was looking at the pic with a magnifying glass- she said you're crazy-I said I know.

wvgal_dana said...

Evening all ... yes Steven we thought there would be some action today too.
See Spidey's web blowing and strung across nest. He stay hidden down in the nest. When they were up there fixing the cam probably.

Mema Jo said...

I thought the white thingy to the left of them was an egg shell at first.. Then I saw an egg roll with all 3 much earlier - so I don't know what it was.

wvgal_dana said...

Big white hump on deer cam is a raccoon.

Jill said...

Megan when I was on earlier, son was here eating dinner. He asked "What if some kid climbed that tree and stuck his face in the camera, you crazy people would be heard screaming all around the world" I just said "Won't happen the tree is 70 feet in the air" He just shook his head and said "you all are crazy." But he has a point. If something suddenly flew into the camera the screams would be heard around the world. LOL

Mema Jo said...

Megan- Tell daughter you are playing I SPY

Mema Jo said...

LOLLY When you return - resend me email
jo_lennox@hotmail.com

deb said...

Unless we get some real quick hatching action, no one is going to win the first poll. No one guessed later than today.

floralgirl said...

It's no good, Jo, she thinks I've lost it.

Jill said...

The good news is someday she will have kids of her own and they will think she is crazy. LOL

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks for checking that Deb! I know a bunch of people voted for yesterday....

working on videos, BBS

NatureNut said...

Holy Moley, No, there's not a chick, but got one late present----THE REAL PLAYER came ON for the first time!!!!! I had searched thru their Help ??s & answers 'til about 3am one night & found nothing that applied. There were some things to check under Tools, but I thought it meant on the 'puter toolbar. I just checked Tools on top of the Player, then Preferences>Internet /Privacy & at bottom it had space to enter your zip code. I put it in. I really think this is for them to find out things from YOUR end. However, then went to File on Player & used the inserted Eagle cam address & it LOADED!!!!! Don't know if this is what fixed it or not, but maybe it can help some others.
My machine may stay on all night even tho I'll be at work!!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Watching Idol - some good performances tonight...

paula eagleholic said...

They are doing Beatles songs

NatureNut said...

We're watching Idol, too. I keep checking Birds during commercials.
Correction on previous note===I won't be at work all night! Meant to say I'll be at work tomorrow, but want to leave Player on so I can check it in AM!

paula eagleholic said...

I was wondering, Nature!

Love the Osprey pics!

deb said...

both eagles at LW. Our eagle is up.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

We can change our vote until the first egg is hatched, right?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Y'all let me know if I changed my votes illegally! :)

floralgirl said...

What, you can change your guess??

Mema Jo said...

CHANGE UNTIL THE FIRST EGG HATCHES


I did my change the other day but guess I'll do it again....
Thanks for the reminder Eagle Eye

floralgirl said...

Well, good grief, don't everybody pick tomorrow...

paula eagleholic said...

OK, videso for today are done!


Eaglet Momsters Blog

paula eagleholic said...

Hmmm...that is what I said....

paula eagleholic said...

Oh, well!

deb said...

Ooh, I didn't know we could change our votes. Raccoon on PA cam.

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks I changed mine also. Thought that is what you said before Paula. Could change until 1st egg hatches then can't change.

deb said...

Eagle in Kent 2!

Jill said...

Did anybody see the last egg check? Looked like a crack but might have been grass. Belle didn't move her butt enough to see all 3.

deb said...

Eagle moved up to Kent 1, I missed the in air shot.

deb said...

No, I got it. Thought for sure I was too slow.

Mema Jo said...

I love the daily videos you have been doing, Paula.

NatureNut said...

Paula, Love your videos. Don't know how you get them on so fast.
Got some surprise osprey shots today & 3/4 of an eagle in the the nest this PM. Haven't dwnlded yet to get a good look. Will let everyone know when they get on this blog.G0o back to Park Sat. Tomorrow I work at a different property where mostly geese and deer roam!(Fox families in the spring! Can't wait.)

IrisF said...

Saw that too Jill, but wasn't sure if it was a crack or not

They are sure being secretive today!

Jill said...

We sent them a memo telling them to use the other side of the egg cup when turning but apparently they didn't get it yet Iris. LOL

Lolly said...

Hi All! Fixed dinner, then sat down to eat while watching Idol. Happy to see some more of you were watching it as well.

Had to laugh at some comments about being crazy watching the cams. I've been known to have the magnifying glass as well.

Jo, sent you another email.

Mema Jo said...

Our eagle was awake - for about 1/2 of a minute. Thought we might see eggs - they do show up very well in the night light.

Mauley said...

I, too, love your videos, Paula. I must have missed your reply about your eaglet on the cloth that is so wonderful. Which eaglet is it. Did you take it. I absolutely love it. I have it right up there with Dana's pink kitty. Sure hope the first egg is fertile and we get a little piece of fluffy soon. mauley

floralgirl said...

Those videos are great Paula. Thanks-

Mema Jo said...

Got your email Lolly.


BWE site - Neat new T-shirt with eagle cam pics! Anyone going down
on the 15th?

deb said...

I just finished the videos, great job, Paula. I liked watching Lib fly away from the nest in Lib is out, Belle is in.

paula eagleholic said...

Mauely - I didn't take my avatar picture...found it on the WWW somewhere!

And yes, that flyout by Lib was great!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle awake = calling?

paula eagleholic said...

No roll, just up and back down

paula eagleholic said...

And thanks everyone for posting when you see stuff, then I can go back and find it on the video and tape it!

floralgirl said...

I loved when lib brought her a live meal, she kept moving toward him to get it, Ithought she was gonna push him out of the nest.

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Paula I too loved the videos. I enjoyed so much seeing Liberty fly out of the nest and swoop downward still flying. They are an awesome pair.

paula eagleholic said...

I think Lib scared the crap out of Belle when he arrived in the nest with that fish...she was getting ready to settle back down on the eggs


eagle up and looking around!

paula eagleholic said...

And I loved the way that fish was still wiggling....


Still looking to the right

paula eagleholic said...

Back to snoozing

paula eagleholic said...

Time for snoozing here, too.

G'nite, all!

wvgal_dana said...

Time for me to close and hit the hay. Night all....tomorrows another day to hope for a hatch at our nest ( :

Lolly said...

Wahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yipeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM ON!!!!!!!!!!
Whoopeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!

Jo, you have to kiss that grandson of yours for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jo and Paula, you too are the greatest! Whoopee!!!!

Now let those babies hatch!!!!!

Lolly said...

I do wish she would wiggle so I can see some movement.

Naturenut, so happy for you, that you got on as well.

MITS said...

Good for you, Lolly, Jo's grandson is a genius when it comes to puters......GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE

floralgirl said...

Yay, Lolly! now you'll really be hooked. Now don't you go waking that eagle just so you can see it move...sshhhh

Jill said...

And he works a lot cheaper than Geek Squad. LOL

deb said...

Congrats, Lolly, too bad it's night and Belle is asleep. You might get to see an eaglet tomorrow!

Jill said...

Mema Jo said...

Just watch Spidey's web, Lolly!

Tomorrow you might just be watching
A LITTLE BOBBLE HEAD

deb said...

I think I am done for the day, also. TTYT

Jill said...

Paula, as my luck would have it, I can see the videos I was here to see in the first place, the ones I didn't see won't open. Figures. Youtube on this computer is sporadic. maybe tomorrow. The two I could watch were great. Wiggle Wiggle .

Lolly said...

Paula, finally got around to watching the videos. They are great!

NatureNut said...

YAY, Lolly! So glad you're on!!!!
I don't know if you got on like I did (my inappropriate "techie" report was about 9:15PM), but if it messes up, I might be whining to Jo in the future.
I have been able to see the spider's web blowing - - it does appear on the 30 sec. cam as a line - - don't they know it's NOT Halloween?? LOL
Now how about a chicklet??!!

Mema Jo said...

NatureNut - Lolly & I will share our info anytime you need it!

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


Suzanne - First thing you do
is check for a Bobble Head

NatureNut said...

Wiggle Wiggle, Left leg & wing stretch, & a Wiggle!
Now bedtime! Might do one more check after Jay Leno!

Lolly said...

Yell Naturenut if you need help. I will send the help to you that Jo sent to me. Bless her grandson!

Nite....time to turn in!

NatureNut said...

Thx Lolly. I just came back & it's "Timed Out". Has been on for over 2 hours. Don't know if it will come back on, but not fooling w/it tonight.
Good night all.....

Jill said...

Nature mine has timed out twice in the last hour or so. About every 20-25 minutes it appears. I thought it was because I change from 30 minutes to 60. I went back and changed the setting back. Will see what happens. This is the first time this has happened to me.

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

Changed my setting back to 30 minutes no more time outs.

movin said...

GOOD NIGHT, EVERYONE.

TOMORROW'S THE DAY!



Suzanne, no hatchlings as of this hour, so, please look for one the first thing in the morning. [;~D]

Jim

Jill said...

Just had an egg check. Wiggle Wiggle and back in the cup. She is being very stubborn about letting us see those eggs.

movin said...

Belle just turned the eggs, but I could only see 1-2, you know how she does it.

She really did it quickly with no special attention, and then she rocked and rocked on them, trying to settle down tight.

I'm pretty sure they are still in egg form.

Jim

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Up for a bathroom break. Was watching Belle. She woke up, looked around, jumped up off the eggs and was watching something with great displeasure. Three times she did wing flaps, not stretches, as if she were trying to chase something off. Then she went back in the egg cup, checked the eggs and wiggled back into the cup. Now she looks like she is on total red alert. I did not get to see all the eggs.

Suzanne said...

Good morning, world. Morning Sharon if you're still up. See we still don't have a hatching! Bummer! Eagle is sound asleep now, head under wing. BW parent is awake.
Oh, back in a sec.

Suzanne said...

Back, had a problem with one of the doors this morning, and had to wait for someone else to come in. Knew he would know what it was! He did, so good to go.
Not bad out, still cold, but no wind, no precipation! 36° in PA, 40° in VA.
See we have lots of posts, will have to attempt to see what I missed yesterday. I'm sorry I didn't miss a hatching in our nest! Darn.
All have a great eagle/panda day. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly! Oh, BW parent is back to sleep, so both eagles have head under wings snoozing!

Suzanne said...

Our nest has had an egg turning, eagle awake and looked around for a bit, then went back to sleep. BW parent also woke up, checked the kids and went back to sleep.
Nobody in Maine, Tesoro still too dark, and guess we still don't have an egg in Norfolk. Had a juvie pop in the nest yesterday to say hi to the Mrs, then the juvie left. Cam is up, nobody home. Wonder how long it will stay up today?
Oh BW checking kids again.
Can't get WDF to open, so can't check the owls, herons or much of anything else. Scarface returned last night about 8pm, Pook's time. NZ Flamingo cams are also down.
Ok, back to the ol' grind. AC is on, so time to get my coat on, it's freezing in here. BW chick is peeking out from under parent, can see a little head by eagle's right wing. Ok, never mind, parent left, chicks alone. Geez, it's too cold at this hour! Parent left at 0531.

Suzanne said...

Parent just returned, thank god! Only gone 2 minutes.

Suzanne said...

Egg turning our nest, can see all 3 intact eggs. Darn! Want one to hatch.

Suzanne said...

Our 30 sec cam is updating every 90 seconds. Not good. Hope the live feed is up and running!

Suzanne said...

Head back under wing, so eagle is relaxed, doesn't hear anything. This is day 37 for egg 1, and day 35 for egg 2. We need a hatch today!

Suzanne said...

BW parent just left after watching the kids for a sec. Kids are sleeping. Our eagle was awake, but head went right back under wing again. BW parent back. Must have had to take a potty break.

Joanne said...

At 7 am Mom is pretty attentive to what is under her, prob listening to peeps inside the shells.

Suzanne said...

BW has a fish in the nest, but did not see how it got there. Had to minimize the screen for a minute. Our eagle still sleeping.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Joanne. My pic may not be updating, I show our eagle sleeping, and has been for a while.

Suzanne said...

Lady BW ius now feeding the kiddies the fresh fish!

Suzanne said...

BW parent is awesome. One chick gets a bite, then the other. She rotates them with each bite. She held back on the incubating for chick #1, and they only hatched a matter of hours apart, so they are really close in size now. Think they hatched about 38 hours apart or so.
Feeding over, mom back on babies.

Egg roll our nest, can see all 3eggs clearly. Pic is having a horrible time updating.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, Belle just got up and did a little stretching. Thought Lib might be on his way but she just turned the eggs and wiggled back in. All three eggs still intact.

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD WEDNESDAY MORNING SUZANNE AND SHARON. Just had the cam come up here at school and got all excited. I thought I saw a brownish spot by the eggs; not yet:( Oh well, the cold weather could possibly put off the hatching for a few days, couldn't it?

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD MORNING TO YOU ALSO JOANNE.i MISSED YOU ON HERE EARLIER. I just had to check on our nest before leaving for school. I think if today isn't THE DAY
we are going to have some excited expectant ealgemomster parents with the jitters; me included. The waiting is killing all of us. :)

carolinabeachmom said...

Well kids will be coming in so I have to say later gator. Don't understand why it let me in to blog today, but I am not complaning. :)

floralgirl said...

It's 40° now, it's gonna be 53° here today, should be sunny this afternoon. I don't think there is a problem, the problem is we are just impatiently waiting for a chick, cause we just can't wait to see it. Today is day 37- they are right on schedule. egg should hatch today or tomorrow, everything is fine, we have seen how attentive they have been to the eggs. The mighty OZ has spoken....

glo said...

Good morning everyone. OK so now we know today is the day! Right? OK so MTBR. I predict today is a great day to watch very closely.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Candy, Megan and Glo. Sure hope today is the day! But guess she is on schedule for the way the eggs hatched in 2006. Hopefully first one will at least start before I leave today!
BW kids getting fed again.

Suzanne said...

The deer with one antler is on the PA cam.

Suzanne said...

Darn, deer strolled off and birds have arrived. Belle is awake again, and BW chicks still eating.

Suzanne said...

Awesome shot, our nest.

movin said...

Good morning, everyone...

Suz, Glo, Sharon, Candy, Megan.

Well, the female was in the nest cup at Norfolk, but now all I see is a largish amount of soft grasses, etc.

BW Mom was feeding the chicks and Dad was on the Osprey nest, but it looks like Dad on the chicks now...

Belle's gawking around looking for Dad I guess. Has he delivered breakfast or spelled her on the eggs yet this morning?

Hope we get a hatching this morning. Everybody have a great day...

[:~)]

Jim

movin said...

Both in BWE.

[:~)]

Jim

Suzanne said...

Morning, Jim. Glad you saw someone in the NBG nest. Haven't seen an eagle there all morning.
Lord BW is now on babies, he just spelled mom.
Belle is eating, Liberty on eggs.

floralgirl said...

Hey Suzanne, Jim, Candy and Glo. They've really built up the egg cup in Norfolk. There was another juvenile eagle there yesterday, it even got in the nest-female chased it away. I guess they have until the beginning of may to lay more eggs or it's not gonna happen this year.

Suzanne said...

Awww, Tai is eating a tree of bamboo, and Mei was at the treat window looking for goodies. Guess she gave up, she got down and walked out the door. He's outside, she's still inside.

movin said...

I just saw Dad (I think) land on nest at VA.

[:~)]

Jim

floralgirl said...

Both eagles in the nest at Norfolk

Suzanne said...

Megan, saw the pics of the juvenile visiting the Mrs. That was too cool.
Both parents in BW.

movin said...

Now, both are in nest at Norfolk.

[:~)]

Jim

normabyrd said...

GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDDIES!!---HELLO! SUZANNE---JOANNE---SHARON---CANDY---MEGAN & GLO----(not going to say--- you know what---hasn't worked)---It's a grey--blue--pink sky here in WV--"HOME OF BELLE & LIBERTY"---temp 41°---may have some snow showers!!!---GOING TO BE A GLORIOUS DAY TODAY!!----LET'S all ENJOY!!!

movin said...

Hi, Megan...welllll. I understood it to be closer to early April for Norfolk. But it looks like they will be able to do it by then.

[:~)]

Jim

glo said...

Awww did you see that? Li comes in with fish. belle gets right up and heads over to eat. After just a few bites she then reaches over a couple of times to give Lib a few ites of the morning catch. How cool. Belle surely does reach back to care for Lib too. What an awesome pair. Can't say it too many itmes when its a FACT!!!

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' MOVIN'JIM!-----------GREAT TO SEE the 'LITTLE PRINCE' is a HAPPY CAMPER this morning!!---HOW HE LOVES HIS BAMBOO!!----WOW!--I LOVE HIM!!!---"little imp"!!

Suzanne said...

Mei is begging and doing her Ray Charles dance again.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Norma. Mei is still inside, and she wants her treats! Or out.

glo said...

Suzanne I was busy filming the food exchange. Gosh got a movie started first thing even if it isn't an eaglet.

Megan Did you also see that at NBG the female missed being hit by a plane by about 100 feet yesterday. Joe Fore I think it was was watching.ITS on NBG thread of Maine forum. makes me just shiver. awful frightening to have seen it

normabyrd said...

YEAH GLO!!---That is 'PRICELESS'--ho!

floralgirl said...

I saw that Glo, I posted it here yesterday after I read it. Gives me the chills, too. Part of the dangers of living right by the airport, it would be awful to have one get hit again there.

movin said...

Liberty-Belle do seem to be an extremely well matched pair, Glo.

They never seem to have conflicts, and they both do their part without a lot of delay and screwing around.

BW has gotten a lot better since the eggs hatched, more like last year. Maybe we were inventing problems there.

[:~)]

Suzanne said...

Good grief, are they that close to an airport? I didn't know that! Glad you got the food drop and Belle feeding Lib. That was precious! I couldn't tell what she was doing on the supposed to be 30 sec refresh but in actuality 90 sec refresh! So glad you told me. Did see her eating, then move up by Lib, but didn't know that's what she was doing.

floralgirl said...

Sorry, Jim, I meant to write April, my brain is still on standard time. Hello Norma:)

movin said...

Both still at the NBG nest, Mom's very active fixing the nest up.

[:~)]

Jim

Suzanne said...

Jim, I agree, Lib and Belle never seem to have problems, unless Lib tries to put a stick somewhere and Belle wants it somewhere else. She does get possessive about how her house is gonna be decorated!
Glad BW is doing their thing, too. Both those chicks are really close in size, and I've watched both parents feed them. They alternate bites for them, that's adorable! They don't feed one till it's full, then the other. Each chick gets a turn.

Suzanne said...

Look at the female in NBG, she's going through contortions getting more bark.

normabyrd said...

SUZANNE---How are your little fuzz balls!!---SORRY I missed saying hello to them!!---TAX lady called & I had to go!!----

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

The Norfolk Botanical Gardens is right next to the airport in Norfolk. They have a bench you can sit on to watch the planes come in and take off.

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Suzanne, Jim, Megan, Joanne, Norma, Candy, Glo, and Sharon.

Now I need to catch up on comments.

Suzanne said...

Oh, Mei is now out. She's a happy camper now. Well, maybe, looking through the screen window and begging for treats.

normabyrd said...

EAGLE ON NEST--BC!!---IN A SNOWY NEST!!!!

Suzanne said...

Thanks, Sharon. Didn't know the gardens were that close to the airport!
Norma, my fuzzballs, if you mean the kitties, are fine. One kept getting sick yesterday, found it when I got home, and I threatened to send all of them to the animal shelter! They still didn't tell me who it was, but think it was Gypsy! She does that almost daily!
Morning, Dana.

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' DANA!!---What's happening at the DONKEY site!!--ho!---I'll check!!

normabyrd said...

WOW!!---HERDS of them again today---as far as you can see--DONKEYS!!---Must be a DONKEY REUNION!!----Do they have FAMILY REUNIONS????

Bird Girl said...

Three whole eggs as of 5:13 am AZ time...

C'mon, chickies!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Suz, I threaten my dogs all the time to have them arrested!

Suzanne said...

LOL, Glo, does it any better for you than it did for me???? They all totally ignored me!

Suzanne said...
