MORNIN' STEVE---THANKS for the new thread!!---Hope your house repairs are moving along----Keep you & family in my thoughts!!---Will bring 'em over!!!!
Thanks, Steven, for the new thread and thanks, Norma, for the announcement.
Osprey in Finland.
MORNIN' GLO!!---How is weather in IL?---I think it may clear here today----SUN is coming up!!!--Wee EAGLETS survived the rain!!---Most of their bodies where under BELLE'S wings & parts were hanging out!! ho!
Thanks for the new thread, Steven, and the heads up, Norma....you are #1:):):)
DEB---I still haven't gotten on the FINLAND site---I was checking the site everyday---no problem--Then the day it came back--I GET ADS ON LEFT & BLANK PAGE!! I am still unable to pull it up using all sites SUZ & HELEN have given me!!----Do you have any suggestions???
we have 2 osprey Finland sites, Norma, you can get onto the one overlooking the water, correct??? Its Finny's you can't get on right? Finny's take awhile to download, are you waiting long enough for the cam to come on?
Weather in Illinois where I am today anyway is to be in mid to upper 70's. I am out to work in the yard :).
On breaks though I will pull up the nest. I so want to see some dried out eaglets smiling with their weather.
Do you mean the Finland nest where the sea eagles were for awhile, Norma?

I have been trying to post some photos on my blog and someone has made a comment and I assume it is Freeloader. I have to try to remember how to remove it.
Photos are all screwed up; can't get them in order. They make no sense if they are not in the proper sequence. I'll keep trying.
Wish Steve would let us know how repairs are coming along on his house. STEVE, WE ARE TRULY CONCERNED; LET US KNOW.
Good Morning dear friends, We have a new lurker. I am trying to get her to join in. Her name is Loretta, and she is my only sister in law. I put NCTC as a favorite for her. She is so excited about all the wild cams. She is a new computer owner, and she is doing great figuring out things. Blessings to all of you today. donna
HELEN & DEB----It's the FINNY site--I can't get now!!---Watched it last year---HELP!!---Same one you couldn't get for a while HELEN!!
Wanda, I, too would like to know how Steve's repairs are progressing. Steve, you are our number 1, and our go-to guy. Praying for you daily, too. donna
I don't have the Finny site, Norma. I know I saw it on here one day, but I must not have saved it.
MORNIN' MAULEY---Tell LORETTA to just start by saying HELLO!!---I am still a NOVICE---but lots of knowledge on the blog & all are more than willing to help!!
WELCOME LORETTA!!
Norma, try it again, if you get the writing on the left, sounds like you are good to go, do you have high speed internet, if not let it run for awile should come up....maybe:)
DEB--You all are watching the site---FINNY was our nickname for the surviving OSPREY in the nest last year!! HELEN had trouble with it too for a few days---but she has worked it out!!---Thanks for offering!!---
W/DO HELEN!!
This is the one I watch, Norma.
Finland nest
Is that the one you can't open?
Norma

This is the one I think you are speaking about. Not active yet
Good Morning Everyone
It sure is another WET ONE!
Was so anxious to spot our hump of eaglets! Looks as though they have
really bonded.
Turkey Gobbler in the PA woods.
They are sooooooo large! Doesn't look as though any rain has been there.
I see the rain is down at Blackwater
I was so happy to have had Belle there with her little ones during the rain last night. Norma gave her credit for being a WV MOM!
Adult eagle back at NCTC, I have no idea who is who there
Thanks DEB!---I have that one---The other one is high up in a tree & we can see other animals (which look like that are an inch high) down on the ground!!!---Beautiful HUGE nest---(which we found later was an artificial nest)
That's the site JO!---Are you saying that site isn't ACTIVE yet??
there are no eggs there yet, Norma, but the osprey are back
are we eating nestovers at the nest???
Thanks KIDS!---I'll just do what my ole' friend 'SCARLETT' would do---"I'll worry about it tomorrow"--
HAPPY TIME at the nest!!!----FOOD!!
LIFE IS GOOD---even when it rains!!!
Norma, can't even send pics from Finny's nest this year:(
Tiny is a hoot! Wants to tuck the head under something - anyone - does not like the rain I suppose.
BELLE flew away!!---Did you all notice---During the so called feeding---#3 reached across & pecked on #1---& he didn't peck back!!!!---She is WOMAN--TOO FUNNY as SUZANNE says!!
Pearl is maturing
DEB--reminded me of the one she is watching & I have that one --- I am good!!---
Checked the STORKS earlier!!---MOM is on the nest with a clutch of 5!!
She is so beautiful---all those white feathers covering the nest!!
BBILW
Anyone seen DANA---I don't remember her being here yesterday!!---She has been having back trouble!!
can't beleive how big the one chick in OK is already, do we know how many actually hatched from that clutch of 4??? might have asked this before but my mind is mush this a.m.
osprey back in Finland nest....maybe ready to get down to business
"ESTRUS HAS officially started for LUN LUN" at the ATLANTA ZOO!!----Haven't see our 'LITTLE BEAUTY' this am----But read she has gained weight!!!----SHE'S ADORABLE!!---
Hello Everyone. See chicks were huddled together and don't look too wet. Hope we have a drier day.
Tornado was spotted in our MD county about 10 miles outside DC. Place called Chillum.
Mauley, my name is Loretta too! Have your sister-in-law join---there aren't too many of us!
GOOD LUCK TO LUN-LUN!!!!!
I saw that report, Loretta....
I was watching earlier and saw 2 chicks there. Since the cameras were down for so long, no one knows how many hatched.
Belle has arrived to protect her kids from the forces of nature......
She looks as though she has dried out
MORNIN' NATURENUT!!---LORETTA---That was scary last night---Our county in WV was on that tornado list too!!----But was removed about 9:00!---Thank goodness!!
Hey all...
Watched the Kelly Clarkson video, she did pretty well..I would have preferred that she sing the entire song in Latin; I sang classical and medieval music in an all-girls acappella group in high school and college, so I guess I'm biased ROFL
TY for the wood duck link...24 eggs!??! OW! Haha.. I like the other cam links too, pretty cool -- maybe the chimney swifts will show up, I've never seen those before.
hope all is well with everyone! gorgeous morning here in Phoenix, I have the front and back doors open and listening to the neighborhood birds (the mockingbird dominates) and my birds...
Parent covering the wet eaglets in our nest.
all together, now: awwwwwwww!
JO---I saw 2 BURROWING OWLS this am---Did you see them?
MORNIN' BIRD GIRL -- and my "FAVORITE CHICK"!!--She looks so happy she makes one SMILE too!!---
ENJOY YOUR GLORIOUS DAY!!
I lost my live feed. :(
Sun is out in Oregon!!
SAFE JOURNEY HOME SUZANNE---LOVE PATS TO GYPSY & HER FUZZY FRIENDS!!!
hope i haven't missed you!---we missed you on the blog today!!
JUST LOST LF!!
lost mine too.
well I would e-mail Steven, but since his address is fws.gov, and I can't get into any of their sites, doubt if he would get my mail
Safe trip home, Suzanne. Good day.
Jim

Hate to do this, but hello everyone, and good bye everyone. Busy day today, and think tomorrow is gonna be worse. Good grief!
Anyway have a guy coming to the house this afternoon to give me an estimate on some 2x4s and potting soil or dirt or something, and I have to beat them there. This should be fun in the pouring rain! All have a great eagle/panda day. Oh, Belle just arrived with our soaked kids. Osprey turning his eggs, and poor BW kids are drenched. Did they eat today? Been on other computer and can't even watch. Ok, outta here. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly!
Thanks, Jim, you have a great day too. I'm gone...
BBL
I sent an e-mail about live feed.
thanks Deb....
Mits, you should try to email Steven anyway.
If it gets through, you will know the cause of the site blockage is something else ... e.g. your security settings or privacy settings in "Internet Options."
[:~)]
Jim
Jim, I have tried to e-mail him before, and no response from him
all my settings are fine.
I see the head of eagle laying in KENT nest #2
You have a real mystery block, Mits.
Have you tried reinstalling your browser, Explorer or FireFox? Sometimes that will fix a lot of problems, and your "Favorites" will be saved.

LIVE FEED IS BACK WITH SOUND!
thanks for update, Deb
Look at Pearl, she took the fish from Belle and is trying to eat by herself.
OMG did our eaglets sprout in all that rain?
Live feed is up with sound?
THANKS STEVE!!!! --YOU ARE #1---SOUND too!!-----
both adults at the nest
well they both were there
Hooray! Just checking back & we've got sound! Saw entire family eating lunch awhile ago.
Now looked like Lib was rearranging fluff---getting dry blankets?
BELLE & LIBERTY---Both in nest!--Think I hear THUNDER there!!---LIB does love to move sticks----Might protect our little explorers!! Aren't they a RIOT!!!
LIB must think they are ganging up on him!!----He keeps moving backwards---- ho!---Is it feeding time?
poor Lib, had enough and left...
STILL SNOWING in OREGON!!---Poor EAGLE MOM has snow on the end of her beak----
FUNNY HELEN!!---He looked down at those THREE FACES & he knew he was out numbered!!----ho!
Good Afternoon; well it's time
for me to head home and to check
on the eagles.I have posted more
photos on webshots page 9 and 10

Eaglets all snoozing in the nest...Tiny's dark feathers are starting to show more and more. The oldest one's tail feathers are really starting to grow....just lurking today, busy Monday....but I did get a short video done from visit to NCTC yesterday. I'll try to get pics posted soon...I was disappointed, I had a wrong setting on the camera at the end, and the later ones didn't turn out :(
NCTC Visit Apr 20
short name for clickable link
Please ignore the second blue link above that say "short name for clickable link"
Belle at the far end feeding, I didn't see her arrive, my RP went down for a moment. Lib stopped by too, don't know if he brought food or not...
NOpe he brought fluff I think!
Belle is feeding Middy, Oldie is laying in the middle playing with fluff
Now 1 and 3 are at the back
ready, aim ,fire!!!!!!
WHOA! Adult back in nest with a big one (?) Both are there now &
Belle is mantling while Lib takes off and while the little ones sleep
on with already full crops.
Really a gimpy leg walk to get the prey over to the serving table.
Lib in with a fish....listening to that peeping!!
Belle is a happy camper!
I love the way she does that too, Jo. Reminds me of a person walking with one shoe on, one shoe off.
LOL is she really offering those stuffed little piggies food...teenagers!!
Nope, middy was full...Belle's turn for some lunch, that's nice :)
Belle took off to the left
Awww... the little ones are almost as big as Liberty and Belle. Just wish they would stay away from the edge!
Merina
Male must be in Oregon nest. He is pulling everything out of the egg cup.
Welcome, Ceil and Merina!! The male in OR is definitely a re-arranger, isn't he? I think it is snowing again.
I got the heron cam to open today. I haven't been on it for awhile. I want to see how big the heronettes are.
Deb my son just moved to Oregon I will have to see where the nest is to him will send him to shovel the snow off
All I could see was a big ball of fluffy gray chicks, the sun is in the wrong place to see any detail. Maybe later today will be a better view.
They certainly need a snow shovel this year. I can't believe it is still snowing so much.
Ceil - Hope he has his hiking boots on!
Hiking boots and snow shoes!!
chicks do not like the rain, started to cheep and adult came a-runnin
Mom is back...I think the rain has started again.
not sure if my nephew is the hiking type, likes the outdoors, but don't know if he likes it that much
She did the exact same thing yesterday too....
Herons are changing places, I see three heads, trying to find #4.
There they all are, they are so cute.
one of these days I will see the heronettes
Steve started a new thread! COME ON OVER!!
