Hi Jo and Mits,
Looked in on the NBG nest and there was no parent. It came back.

ceil said...

Sorry I didn't see you nature. Have a good day.

MITS said...

Ceil, have you looked at the eagles in Pigeon Forge, Tenn, that Paula put up....remember when we were there?

Mema Jo said...

I missed wherever Paula had it......

THanks

Thanks Pauls & Mits just looked in on Pigeon Forge. Mom & Dad are watching baby.

ceil said...

Sorry Paula finger slipped. Love your Mother's day picture. BBL

MITS said...

Jo, you have mail

Mema Jo said...

Ok I'm good to go - I wasn't connecting with TN but I have been watching Liberty & Justice. Cool how they are both visible in the cam at the nest.

Mema Jo said...

Going to run an errand (new watch battery)with Ed. BBL

paula eagleholic said...

Is there only one eaglet in TN? I was out at the store, haven't had a chance to look.

Gotta do house cleaning today...way overdue...

paula eagleholic said...

Our eaglets look like one big clump

Mom's Day is never done at the nest! Must be snacking now!

NatureNut said...

Amen, Mauley. My Mom and Grandmas are up there too. God Bless all.

paula eagleholic said...

Raining lightly here now...more on the way

NatureNut said...

Been checking Norfolk & that little bundle of fluff is sure getting big already!!
At Park yesterday, our osprey cam was down,(they HAD gotten it online), so I couldn't see if 3rd egg had hatched. Go there tomorrow, tho, so hope to get a peek!It was in color last week, but no sound. Can't have everything!!

paula eagleholic said...

Nature - so I should keep checking the park page to see if they get it back online?

NillaWafer said...

Just a quik note to say Happy Mothers Day to all... So much going on in my life been very ill and athough i dont blog much i peek in on nest now and again.. Yesterday was my sister Linda's 3rd birthday in heaven she would have been 59... Today is my moms 51st Mothers Day in Heaven and the pain of missing her still lingers... Happy Belated Birthday to all i missed also.. Jazzy is growing so much 4 teeth and standing alone .. til she relizes she is doing it... Miserable day here raining so what better time to clean closets huh?? lol Take care everyone, Nilla

Mema Jo said...

Nothing is so good as to hear from those you miss on such a special day.
Nilla -you are always in our thoughts and prayers here on this blog. Jasmin is beautiful - favors you more and more as she grows!
Love ya!

paula eagleholic said...

So good to hear from you Nilla, prayers from the heart for an improvement in your health!

ceil said...

Hi Nilla. Wishing you good health.

paula eagleholic said...

Wet parent our nest w/ 3 wet eaglets!

paula eagleholic said...

Getting ready to head out to dinner w/ son and dil and grandkids...nice and casual...

Mema Jo said...

Ho Ho!! Rain is steady here in the valley as it is over at the nest.
I think Spidey has a will of iron - he never gives up! I can see his smudges starting! Almost looks like little zebras in the nest! Poor wet Parent doesn't look so cool either.
I think it is Lib.. Well dad & the kids are being very sweet to Mom-Belle today!
Hope everyone Mom is having a good one - rain or shine!

ceil said...

Paula, egg at Oregon has been left alone for quite awhile now. Hi, Jo.Raining buckets here and windy.

ceil said...

Lots of wet birds again. Norfolk wet.BWO wet. Can only see one BWE eaglet and not the whole bird. Other must be in the upper corner.

Costume Lady said...

HI LADIES...
Yes, it is raining here in Martinsburg/Shepherdstown and it is 52°. It actually feels colder than that. Don't those eagles of ours look pitiful? Maybe this rain will help wash some of the mites off them and clean the nest out a bit.

Mema Jo said...

BWO keeping her 3 eggs dry
BWEaglets may be branching somewhat

The WIldWatch Heronetts are in the nest & their feathers have started to darken.
The WIldWatch Osprey is at nest but no eggs to date.
The WIldWatch Lake WA family is at the nest celebrating Mother's Day

It is finally Pitch Dark at Finland's nest

Isla in Scotland is sleeping..

Mema Jo said...


Fantastic view of Hummer

Mema Jo said...

Wanda - I just hope all this rain doesn't WASH AWAY the nest. Those sides don't have much left of them for launching....... lol

ceil said...

Hi Wanda. It does feel cold. Jo, this nest does not have the sides like the 2006 nest did.

Mema Jo said...

Wishfully just tried Live Feed BUT
NO GO

Hi Ceil - Did you have a good day?

Wanda - did you see your girls today. Hope your mom is starting to
feel the effects of the shot soon & her pain may be relieved! How old is your mom, Wanda.

Mema Jo said...

I had to turn on some heat in the house early this afternoon...feels good now. I just wanted to get the chill off.

ceil said...

I had a great couple of days Jo and I know you did also. I was going to turn the heat on but have not so far.As you said just to get the chill off.

Costume Lady said...

Yes, Jo. Family came over to Mom's. They are all so wonderful...Karla (Butterfly Mama) brought dinner over: Grilled Ribs, Dilled Potato Salad and Coconut Creme Pie. I really enjoyed not cooking the meal nor cleaning up after! Karla is a wonderful cook.
My Mom walked into church this morning without a limp and said she slept pain-free last night. THANK YOU JESUS!

Costume Lady said...

Now, Jo, you know he did have something to do with that! LOL

ceil said...

Wanda glad your mom is doing better hope it continues. Going to watch some TV. May talk later

Costume Lady said...

Jo, Mom will be 88 in July. She is a very young 87! I am so grateful to still have my mother in my life. I will do anything to keep her here for a long time to come. Her mother lived to be 94...

Costume Lady said...

Survivor Finale is on tonight.

Mema Jo said...

Off you 2 go to TV...

BBL

Mema Jo said...

I swear I just lost an eaglet
Can't wait for the refresh to see where he went
Adult is in the nest & I can see the
other 2 (at least their talons)

Mema Jo said...

Now my 30sec cam is going
psychedelic on me........

Back and ok

Still only see 2 + adult

Mema Jo said...

I wish someone else were watching
the eagle cam & voice an opinion.

Ceil & Wanda are watching TV
Paula out to dinner
Mits out to dinner

Anyone out there in Eagleland?

deb said...

I am home, Jo and see a parent, one eaglet at 1 o'clock, one at 12 o'clock and on right next to that one.

Mema Jo said...

Hi Deb

I think our pic is frozen but the
time is running ok......

Mema Jo said...

Last I saw #3 she was right by
Adult to his left at about 10:00...

deb said...

I think you are right about it being frozen. I haven't seen anything new since I turned it on. I found the Tennessee site and see the OR eagles have apparently abandoned the egg. Too bad, after everything they went through.

deb said...

Time for Survivor for me. BBL.

Mema Jo said...

There has been some moment on the cam in the nest - Spidey's web is not helping with clear viewing.......
WHOO HOO I see 3 set of talons plus the adults!

All Wet & Accounted For

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I see all three of our babies now. Had a nervous few minutes though!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hello all my eagle buddies. I am home. We had a very spiritual weekend, remembering Patty, feeling her spirit everywhere. We had a memorial service this morning and shared our memories of her. There will be a formal one at her hometown on Tuesday afternoon.

Patty was just a giving and loving woman, giving up through the end -- She donated her body to WVU. That is just the kind of woman she was.

Thank everybody for all your kind words of comfort! You truly are such blessings to me!

Mema Jo said...

ME TOO! When I take a pic and they are up at 12noon - you really just need to look for their talons.

Glad you are home! Thoughts and prayers from everyone were with you!

Mema Jo said...

Taking a break since I have had confirmation from Sharon that she now sees all 3!

ceil said...

Glad they are all there. Think I stopped breathing for a minute. Glad you are back Sharon.

wvgal_dana said...

Just checking in with all my Eagle Friends here ( :

Happy Mother's Day to all that are Mothers and those that serve in some way as a parent. God Bless ALL

Suvivor see you all tomorrow

Costume Lady said...

What a special thing to say Dana...Just for that, you get WAX!!

paula eagleholic said...

Back from a very nice relaxed dinner. Youngest son showed up as a surprise! That was really cool!

Gotta go pay the bills!

MITS said...

Hello everyone, had a nice dinner with the M&M girls....rain was awful coming home, eagles look drenched, glad one of the adults are with them.

MITS said...

well I did see one of the adults a little while ago, now I don't

MITS said...

see where Nilla was here, sorry you have not been well.

paula eagleholic said...

How sad on the Oregon nest...she was off it yesterday too. I guess that was the beginning. Poor things, they tried so hard. I wonder how unusual all this snow is for them.

MITS said...

looks like a rainy day at the FINLAND NESTS TOO.

Lolly said...

Hi All!!!! Hope your Mother's Day has been the greatest!!! We had a great time. The boys love swinging in the tree swing and we blew bubbles. Went through three bottles!!! Dinner was grand and Jack cleaned up. I am now enjoying the last of a glass of wine and enjoying the peace that follows having everyone here. LOL

MITS said...

good night everyone....ttut

Mema Jo said...

I love it when there are surprises!
You must have had a perfect evening, Paula.

Mema Jo said...

Don't get too relaxed Lolly! Tonight is your night for the ferry ride!

Mema Jo said...

Despite the rain, Mits you must have had a great time with your M&M's being with you.

Lolly said...

I can not believe I missed the boat last night!!!! All my sister's fault! Sisters!!!!! LOL

paula eagleholic said...

I can see our parent in the nest

paula eagleholic said...

Poor things are so soaked...I can make out 2 eaglets and a parent

paula eagleholic said...

BWE eaglets are soaked too

Mema Jo said...

No sunshine in forecast until Tues.

Mema Jo said...

Ready to call it a day!

Mema Jo said...

There went that Ferry Boat -
Did you make it Lolly?

Lolly said...

Wahoo! I made the boat!

Lolly said...

I was in the other room. Glanced at the clock, came running in, pushed hubby aside, clicked on the cam, and there it was! Wahoo! We're on there together Jo. More fun! Look at that view! LOL

Costume Lady said...

It sounds like we all enjoyed our special day. It is wonderful to be a mother.. best job in the world!

Madeleine! said...

I am building an ark......

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
I wonder where Suz is...flooded roads maybe?

Costume Lady said...

Loretta, your Rhododendron is beautiful. Is it blooming now or is that an old photo? Mine isn't even close to blooming.

Costume Lady said...

Maddie, when you get that ARK built, can we join you on it?

normabyrd said...

GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDDIES!!----NATURENUT---MADDIE & WANDA!!---I guess everyone is in MADDIE'S ARK!!----It's a WET--SOGGY--GREY morning here in WV---"HOME OF BELLE & LIBERTY---PLUS 3"----temp. 39°---with scattered showers in EASTERN PANHANDLE!!----Looking forward to tomorrow!----a beautiful SUNNY day is forecast!!---WOW!!--Miss SUZANNE'S cheerful morning updates!!---Hopefully she will 'saunter' in later!!----Let us all ENJOY this GLORIOUS DAY!!!-----"LIVE" & LIFE is GOOD!

normabyrd said...

WOW!!---BELLE & the 'AWESOME 3'--are REALLY--REALLY SOAKED!!--Just standing in the nest---probably waiting for the SUN to dry them off!!!---bless their little hearts!!

Costume Lady said...

Yes, Norma...we sure do miss Suz when she is not here. It's like "What's wrong with this picture?".

normabyrd said...

WANDA---My rhododendron started blooming this weekend---Bet yours is ready to burst into bloom!!--So BEAUTIFUL!!

normabyrd said...

WANDA---How is your MOTHER?---Hope you both enjoyed MOTHER'S DAY!!---

Mauley said...

Good Rainy Morning dear ones. Wet here, too. But after last summer's drought it is hard to complain. Our poor feather babies and parents are so wet. BBL have a blessed one. donna

normabyrd said...

OREGON NEST!!---I'm so SORRY!!!--I have been watching that nest everyday--as we all have---waiting for the EGG to hatch!!---I guess they have abandoned the nest???

floralgirl said...

Hello all:) using daughter's computer- mine died.. didn't realize I was posting in her name..lol...too much rain at once here- 41/2 inches and counting.. supposed to plant outside all day today-not gonna happen....going to be too wet to get into the garden for days.

normabyrd said...

MORNING DONNA!!---Oh yes!!--EAGLETS & BELLE are just soaked!!--so very sad looking!!---We are expecting SUNSHINE tomorrow!!---Lots of it too!!!!--- ho!

Costume Lady said...

NORMA...My Mom is doing well. She is walking without a limp (almost) and said she slept all night without pain. I pray that it continues to go so well for her.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning everyone!! Very wet, windy and cool in Bluefield this morning. I have to keep reminding myself that these eaglets and eagles probably are not thinking "whoa is me, I am so miserable". This is just part of it for them. I am so good at giving them human emotions though!

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' BEAUTIFUL FLOWER GIRL!!---I haven't been on my computer for a couple of days----had guests!---TOMORROW'S BROADCAST----Lots of SUNSHINE!!----WV has school closing in 2 counties!---Storms knocked out electric!!!

Athenaa said...

Morning everyone...new thread that I happened in on....come on over!

Costume Lady said...

SHARON...I was thinking the same thoughts last night. They probably are not as miserable as they look. I don't think they have the instinct to "feel sorry for themselves", (unfortunatly, we do!).

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' BLUEFIELD SHARON!!---Have had you in my thoughts & prayers all week end!---Did you get lots of rain at CEDAR LAKES??---SHARON--I not only think they feel & act as we humans do---I talk to them!!----They do lighten some of our burdens when we are watching them!! One of GOD'S gifts to us humans!!!---
