Live feed is working, and the chicks are settling down to snooze somewhere toward the center of the nest...

GOOD NIGHT, EVERYONE/GOOD FRIDAY MORNING TO THE EARLY BIRDERS.

Hey all... still no live feed.. sigh... just saw your question Norma, I can't say I have LOTS of flowers because I have LOTS of deer (bad on anything with a bloom), LOTS of squirrels (bad on bulbs and satellite dish lines..lol) and LOTS of fluffly bunnies that eat anything green. I am restricted by voracious apetites and have to plant stuff that they don't like and won't eat... which leaves me with lots of mums and marigolds. But I love flowers and one day will actually have a flower bed (with electric fence around it).

Good Friday morning, world. I see whatever spidey caught yesterday is still on cam. He needs to clean his pantry! Kids are sleeping, one was on his side a sec ago. BW kids are sleeping, there is a male osprey in the Finland nest, and Finney's nest is MT. One jackdaw is on eggs, the other is in the entrance, so it's too dark to see much.
Nice out, 49° in PA, 60° here, but think we're supposed to get rain starting this afternoon and going through Sunday. There goes the weekend. Darn.
Did not see my Indigo Bunting last night, nor did I see momma bird in the nest on my door. But got home late, lots of running around to do, so may have missed the bunting. Not sure if mom had just taken off or what. Didn't want to look thru the window and disturb her.
All have a great eagle/panda day. Another busy day coming up. I'll be in as much as I can. Eyes to the sky, see thr raptors fly!

Suzanne said...

Forgot, Scotland osprey on eggs. Looks comfy today, it's not raining.

Suzanne said...

One of our eaglets is sleeping on his tummy. Who knew eagles did that? Never thought of it, but did not know they slept on their tummies!

Suzanne said...

Osprey in Finney's nest!

Suzanne said...

Oh, Scotland osprey got off the eggs, stretched wings, and looked at the cam. Just now took off and flew over the nest. Can see the eggs and fluff in the egg cup. Oh, here comes the other one. Turning eggs, and wiggle wiggling down.
Think blogger cop is awake, it's taking forever to post a comment on here. Took a long time for this to come up this morning, too.

Suzanne said...

This is funny. Mom was on the eggs in Scotland, and dad came in with a fish. Her mouth started going. She got up off the eggs, walked over to dad (mouth still going), and tried to steal his fish. He pecked her head a couple times, but she still was squawking and trying to steal his fish. He finally gave her a last peck and took off...with his fish in talons. She just sorta watched him go, and walked back to the eggs and got settled on them. She's quiet now, but she sure is looking around. What a hoot!
Osprey still in Finney's nest. Feathers are really blowing, so it's windy there.

Suzanne said...

Osprey just arrived in Finland, but slow piece of junk computer wouldn't let me take a pic. Darn thing!

Suzanne said...

Osprey has arrived, BWO. Still one in Scotland, and Finland, and Finney's. Both our nest and BW eagles are still sleeping. to the best I can tell, still 3 eggs in Jackdaw nest.

floralgirl said...

Morning Suzanne and Dave:) live feed is down, but mysteriously enough I can now open the 30 sec cam page. Chicks are all lined up sleeping.

Suzanne said...

Jackdaw is sitting on eggs, and has 2 crab legs hanging from her beak. At least she's eating well. Darn, mate just arrived and is blocking the light! Our kids are awake, one is standing other two are still laying there. Ok, one is walking, other two still laying. BW kids still asleep. Don't think hubby has returned to wonder woman after she gave him heck last time. Osprey still in BWO, and both Finland osprey nests MT. Blackbird in PA, but haven't been watching closely to see if deer have been there or not.

Suzanne said...

Morning, Dave and Megan! Yup, Dave sometimes I talk to myself a lot!
Megan, congratulations!!!! I'm so glad you can get the 30 sec cam again. Hope Helen and the others can too!

ceil said...

Good morning Suzanne, Dave and Megan and everyone coming on today. The wood ducks will fledge today. Will not be on today. Going with Mits to watch her granddaughters.Have a great day.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning everybody. Suz, I think all of us outcasts finally got the still cam yesterday. Don't have a clue what was up with it.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Ceil, I am sure you and Mits will have a blast with the M&M girls today. What precious babies they are!

Suzanne said...

Hey, cool! Good morning, Ceil. You two will have a blast with the M&M girls! Give them hugs for me. And you and Helen have a great weekend!
Sharon, glad you got the 30 sec cam. Did anyone come on and say what the problem was?

floralgirl said...

Hello Ceil and Sharon:) have fun with the M&M girls, they are so cute!

Suzanne said...

Check out PA, they have a new cam. Very cool pic! Deer on more salt licks in the woods in the fog.

Suzanne said...

Well dang! Deer went off cam, turkeys came on. Ok, deer are back. Man, that deeer on there now looks way too skinny!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Nobody said anything that I know of but I had an email last night from Mits telling me to check mine as hers was back up.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Boy, I wish the live feed had as clear a picture as the still cam! It even has a little color.

Suzanne said...

Sharon, the still cam has always had color. It gets too bright when the sun is out, though, and you get a lot of glare on the nest. But now that it's actually updating pretty close to 30-60-90 seconds, it's nice to have.

Suzanne said...

Belle has been feeding all 3 of her kids for a while now. I'm still waiting for BW parent to show up. Then to show up and actually have food and share the food!
This is such a very cool pic on PA cam now.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING SUZ, SHARON AND MEGAN..
I thought I got the 30 sec. cam due to having the viruses cleaned out of my puter. But, I think it was just coincidence because Helen, Megan and Sharon also was able to get it. Weird.

Costume Lady said...

I love the Pa. cams. Haven't watched them in a while. Hope we get to see the babies of both the turkeys and deer. Fawns should be born soon, but don't know about turkeys. Exciting.

floralgirl said...

hello Wanda:) did you get a virus protection program installed in your computer? I think the FWS sites had set their security settings and it was blocking a certain set of computer IP numbers. It was about a month we could not open the sites.

Suzanne said...

Buck on cam in PA getting his new antlers!

Suzanne said...

Morning, Wanda. glad you got the cam too! They have a new cam in PA, a salt lick. Very cool.

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Suzanne, Dave, Megan, Mits, Wanda, Sharon and Ceil.

I can get the 30 second cam also now ( :

Suzanne said...

Back to other cam in PA. 3 tom turkeys strutting!

floralgirl said...

Hey Dana:) I have 2 male hummingbirds in my yard since yesterday!

wvgal_dana said...

Neat Megan your a lucky gal ( : I have to wait till around Mothers Day and get some plants from you. To get my hummers....( : But with your plants they will come.

wvgal_dana said...

Read back Mits and Ceil are going to have a great time with M & M ( :

wvgal_dana said...

Suzanne who is Jackdaw?

Costume Lady said...

Megan, yes, I did get a virus protection program. The tech installed it right after he cleaned up my computer. He gave me some great tips while we were going through the cleaning (we were on the phone while he did his magic).

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING DANA...
Do you have the 30 sec. cam now? It seems we all have it now. Try it.

wvgal_dana said...

Isn't it the female osprey her name starts with an "A". That the male won't bring her fish and she won't leave the eggs. So they said she isn't get any food?

wvgal_dana said...

Yep Megan ty when I first entered I had mentioned "I can get 30 second cam" ( :
I said what you said on here today a long time ago. It was at their end. They weren't resetting some of our numbers.

wvgal_dana said...

Ooopps first part was for Wanda
2nd part for Megan lol

Suzanne said...

OMG, BW adult is actually feeding chicks. How cool!

wvgal_dana said...

hee hee just kidding here >>>> I want a refund for my paid ticket for that month lmbo yea right and then a refun for times the LF is out really lmbo

Costume Lady said...

Hooray for Dana! (sorry, I didn't read back far enough in your comments)

Suzanne said...

Morning, Dana. Think you may be talking about Isla(?) female osprey in Scotland I call Wonder Woman. Her mate's name starts with an A, but can't remember what it is.
The Jackdaw is a bird nest on cam 2 of the Finland osprey cam.
Both parents in BWE, and chicks are being fed.
Dana, Isle (it's either an 'a' or an 'e' on the end of her name) almost had a fish this morning, but she was harping at mate and tried to steal it. He pecked her a few times and flew off...with the fish! Best as I can tell, she's been on the eggs ever since.

Suzanne said...

Oh, 2 osprey in Finland nest!

wvgal_dana said...

I just read back it is Suzanne Isla the female and her mate won't bring her food. Chrissy was talking about it yesterday. I which Isla would have pecked the fish right away from that fool male.

Suzanne said...

Dana, he is bringing her food. Most of the time she is nice about it. This morning, as once before, she was not, so he took it and left her. Read her daily diary.

Suzanne said...

wow, both adults in nest at BW and NCTC. Never mind, BW left.

wvgal_dana said...

Feeding at our nest with that nice fish we seen laying there. I think it is # 1 and # 3....I think # 2 is still laying in the back.

Suzanne said...

Jackdaw turning eggs.

Suzanne said...

Whoa, osprey actually LAYING DOWN in BWO! Are we gonna get a real live egg??????

wvgal_dana said...

OMGoodness something is flying over Lola at CT Osprey. She once started to go straight up out of nest. Back down.

wvgal_dana said...

Still 4 eggs at Osprey CT nest ...

Suzanne said...

Eggs just got turned, Scotland. Belle just left our kids, and believe it or not, adult still in BWE nest with kids. Jackdaw looking out her "window" eggs visible. Sal lick cam on PA, with deer. Back to it.

wvgal_dana said...

This is my 1st year to have "Bluebirds nesting in my bluebird box"!!! Every year different other birds have taken the box. I am so excited ( : ( :

They are so beautiful...I can sit on my porch and watch them going in and out.

normabyrd said...

GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDDIES!!---I have been lurking this a.m.---attempting to follow SUZANNE'S explanation of the nicknames of the birds in Scotland & Finland---DANA---do you have all of them straight!!---ho!

normabyrd said...

SUZANNE---Where do you find the JACKDAW?

wvgal_dana said...

I don't believe from what I read that Norfolk has had a hatch yet.

wvgal_dana said...

Morning Norma ( : No Norma some I don't think I will ever remember lol

floralgirl said...

Hello Norma:) I sent Steve an email letting him know live feed is down. Hang up your hummer feeders, they are here and more are on the way. Looks like a cloudy day today, but warm. Gotta go get some work done, oh my aching back.....

Suzanne said...

Morning, Norma.
Norma, the real names of the Scotland couple are Isla(F), and Angus(M). I called Isla Wonder Woman when she laid her 50th egg of her career. Never called her mate anything.
Have no names for the osprey in Finland, either Finney's parents or the other osprey couple.
Dana, the Jackdaw cam is Cam 2 of the Finland nest. The osprey cam is on Cam 1.
Outta here, back to work. Oh, haven't named the jackdaw's either. They have 3 eggs.

wvgal_dana said...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, Normabyrd. What is your secret to always staying so positive and upbeat? If you could bottle it, you could sell it and make a fortune!

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING NORMA...

Costume Lady said...

Norma, I thank God that we were able to take that trip at a time in our lives when we were still able to enjoy all the things we did. Lord only knows how much longer we will be able to climb mountains (small ones) and walk through the hot desert.
