1 – 200 of 217 Newer› Newest»Thanks Steve. 45° here, overcast. Looks like another cloudy day here, we need sunshine.
GOOD MORNING AND THANK YOU STEVE...HAVE TO GO SEE WHERE EVERYONE IS.
GOOD MORNING MEGAN...
Thought I was all alone.
It took me a while to get the Live Feed up this morning, so I don't know if our babes have been feed or not. They sound hungry.
It is 43° here in the Martinsburg/Shepherdstown area, only going up to 64° today...tomorrow will be 78°...Hooray!
Good morning Eagle Friends! Our kids are sure growing. I feel a nest visit coming on!
Thanks for the new thread, Steve, and thanks for the heads up, Megan. Good morning to you both, and good morning to Wanda too. Haven't seen the kids get breakfast yet, but haven't been watching 100% of the time, either.
Good Morning Vicky...it has been a while since we have heard from you. Yes, a nest visit sounds good to me.
Good morning, all. Hope it's a great day for all of us and our feathered friends. Are we talking a literal nest visit? To WVA?
Morning, Vicky! Didn't mean to miss you last time. Morning, Melvsmom. Yes, we do real nest visits to Lib and Belle's home. Probably do one when the kids get a little bigger and either start branching or fledging. So very cool to see them in the feather, so to speak!
Food just arrived, our nest.
Adult in nest- looks like breakfast is served.
Didn't last long, Megan!
Those little falcons in SanJose are vicious! One pecks one, the one that was pecked turns around and pecks the little one, the little one pecks the biggest one. Vicious circle, and just too funny. Now they're all gonna snuggle and go to sleep. What a hoot!
Good Morning all. I love seeing and hearing the Live Cam when I start my day.
Good morning Eagleland!! Been watching our younguns this morning. I am so glad that unidentified object is gone from the lens. That was starting to become problematic.
I live in the city limits of Bluefield. Beverly lives 3 houses out from me and she had a doe in her yard this morning. We have lived in this neighborhood for 40+ years and have never seen a deer before. It is so exciting!
Good Morning Everyone...HAPPY MAY DAY
56° here and partly sunny:)
Morning, Glo and Sharon and Helen. Glad the live feed is up. Kids had a very short breakfast this morning. Happy May Day to you too, Helen! If we were overseas, we would have gotten a memo to stay off the streets today! So nice to be in the States...can go where you want when you want!
I always remember the parades that they would show on TV of the old
soviet Union and how they would bring out all of their fire power
Good morning, everyone, from the state where winter won't leave. This is what we get for a forecast today:
Northern Black Hills of SD 2-3 feet of snow tonight into tomorrow, Southeastern SD rain today and tomorrow, turning to snow tomorrow night.
Good thing I went to the Black Hills last weekend.
Geez, Deb....Happy May Day....:)
just checked Oregon nest....not snowing, and no eagle, see the egg hole, but don't see an egg:(
Good Morning Megan, Sharon, Mits, Suzanne, Wanda, Deb, Glo, Melvmom, Vicky, and Other Eagle Watchers ( :
feeding at NBG
Love watching the San Diego falcons, must be close to the airport, you can see the jets landing in the background
The eagle left Oregon about 5-10 minutes ago.
well that is not a good sign, Deb
Maine didn't get any laid this year yet have they?
Morning Deb and Dana. Good grief, Deb, is spring ever coming to your state? I don't like all this rain we're getting but sure prefer it over the snow you're getting! Helen, you should have seen those babies a while ago, it was too funny. Playing pass the peck, I guess. One one peck, and then they'd just pass it on till the instigator got it back again! Now they're all snuggled together tryig to go to sleep. What a pile of fluff!
No, Dana, their year is over:(
I guess that is Tai looking through the screen with his paws up. Wanting to be with his Mom, they were smelling through the screen. Now he is trying to get the door open.
I too am sad for Maine (: 2nd bad season for them.
I saw them do that yesterday, Suzanne, it was so funny, and Mom/Dad just stood there watching them
hee hee Tai is now laying on his back moving around messing with the door. He is a hoot!!
oh good, Eagle back in OR nest
Suzanne, spring is kind of here, it was 73 yesterday, but winter doesn't want to give up. I have to mow today before it rains, so the moisture is good for the grass!
Morning, all. :)
Busy day here...cloudy weather is nice for viewing the cam, but I sure wish it would warm up!
And if you haven't checked lately, I have some videos on the Eaglet Momsters Blog. There are videos that can be viewed right on the blog...
Eagletmomsters.blogspot.com
GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE...
I'm heading toward San Diego today for the funeral. Be talking to you tomorrow probably.
Have a great day...
C(°ï®¡°)D

Best wishes for a safe journey, Jim.

AMEN:)
I guess they are expecting the hatching up in PA, with the peregrines any time now
I'm beginning to think all of our eaglets are females, they are so big
Biggie and Middy look the same size to me....and now that you mention it, Tiny is about the same size, too
Glad she came back at OR....yes a lot warmer tomorrow
bbl
Morning, Paula and Jim. Jim, have a safe trip.
These kids this year may all be the same sex. They're all pretty much the same size. Even the little one has caught up with the other two!
Helen, when are the Kestrals supposed to hatch, do you know? Or have they?
OMG, one of the san jose chicks was getting out of the box. Look at mom draggin him back with the other 2! Wow, she's telling them to stay put!
wow, look at that very full crop! She's gonna sit on the chicks now. Maybe they'll go to sleep and won't wander. Nope, he wants to go again, this is too funny!
Good Morning this Marvelous May Day!
It is so very 'still' out today.
I read the remark "Nest Visit" - won't be long before that should happen!
Paula - Videos are great from yesterday's activity!
I want to read earlier comments & check emails - BBL
darn, had it on full screen, but was out of the room, and missed the great escape by the SD chick.....I have not been watching the kestrels, Suzanne
Oh darn, Helen! It was too funny. She's really standing guard over them now. Little toot was all the way to the far end on the left of the cam. He was scooting.
Thanks for the Kestral info, maybe Norma knows.
Morning, Jo!
LW eaglet being fed.
Okay, I am going to try to post! Yesterday every time I hit the publish button, I got the message that the web page was not available. ??????? I got frustrated and quit!!
Good morning everyone! What I really wanted to say yesterday was these eaglets will always be Pearl, Middy, and Tiny to me!
It is so windy here I might end up back on the east coast in no time at all! :)
Today have a project of planting approx. 300 caladium bulbs here at Hawkwood Gardens. LOL
Have a great day eagle watching!
Wahoo!!!! It posted!!!! Hi! Everybody...I'm back!
yes, Suzanne, Norma watches them.
Suzanne, what is going on at Finny's nest???? I really miss those osprey cams.:(
Lunch time, our nest.
and what do we have for lunch?
Helen, female has been in the nest most of the day. She left for a while, next time I looked they were both there. Haven't been watching too much today, been on other computer. Look at cams when I can. Right now she's there alone. She is so beautiful in the sunset! it's 1830 there, and I love the way the sun shines on that nest when it goes down. Other osprey nest is still down, but saw the 5 jackdaw eggs a little while ago.
LOL, not sure, but one of the kids is stealing a bite while mom feeds the other kid.
Well, don't think it's a fish...
thanks, Suzanne
I didn't think so either, but was not watching when it was brought in
Looks like a fish now?? Pearl is really hungry.
yeah, those guys act like they haven't eaten in a month!
You're welcome, Helen, anytime! Should have some time tomorrow (hopefully), I'll give you blow by blows. Sure wish whatever it is would stop and let you get that site again!
Whatever it is, you can hear it being torn apart and you can hear chick gulping it down. Suz, you can't hear it can you?
The sun is reflecting off of something in Finny's nest and looks like it could start a fire.
I just realized, I can't tell them apart now!
Good grief, look at the time. Time has just flown by today! All have a great eagle/panda day. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly! Hopefully tomorrow won't be quite so busy!
Jo, I just stumbled across this info re: the Dennis Pulston osprey cam....
At approximately 1:14 PM on Saturday, April 12, a lightning strike near the camera knocked out the video signal from the camera. Attempts to recover the signal failed. After discussion among the people responsible for the camera, the consensus is that we attempt to retrieve and replace the camera. We are very early in the process and do not have an estimate as to how long we will be without video, but the process has started. Updates will be posted.
Thanks, Mits! That explains it all. I do like that nest..Maybe they will get it up/running before the season ends.
Rain drops falling here in the valley. It is cold out there.
Getting ready for regular Dr app't - just to go over blood work.
BBL
Tiny and Middy just about twisted their heads off watching something flying overhead. Pearl is sound asleep. I think I got them right this time....it is really hard now.
Jo, hope all is well. I, too, am waiting on blood test results.
My test was just a yearly thingy.
Good Morning Paula
Eagle just flew into our nest now flew out....
12:40 Live Feed went down
Adult was in nest - Pearl mantled whatever was brought in - adult flew out - pic froze - could not restart.
30 sec cam is ok
EMAILED STEVE CONCERNING LIVE FEED DOWN
Jo Same thing happened to mine dang
shut mine down before it went down, it was acting like a 30 second cam, so turned it off:(
Washing clothes...maybe it will be back on when I get done.
Mei Xiang is inside snacking on veggies
Headed for the shower
CU
LIVE FEED IS BACK. HOORAY FOR STEVE!
Oops, lost it again.
I hate it when my happy fingers hit the post twice.
No live feed here- needs a reset.
My lawn is mowed and I am ready for the rain. There is already a foot of snow in the Black Hills and I am glad it is on the other side of the state!!
LIVE FEED and it is dinner time!
Mom is there with food. I guess it's mom. Anyway, live feed again (in every sense of the word).
Can anyone explain to me what Belle is doing? I'm lost.
Whatever she has isn't fish, I don't see feathers flying, so I am guessing it isn't a bird. She has to remove the fur, etc. to get to the meat.
probably a bird for lunch, looks like she is plucking the feathers off
When it is a bird, feathers go everywhere!
then maybe a squirrel
Am I missing the feathers?
After watching a moment, I got it. But thanks for taking the time to let me know. It's the first time I've seen them eat anything but fish.
At this rate, we will never know what it is. They eat so fast know, it will be gone before you know it.
Now, not know!
wait to you see them eat turtle......crunchy:)
I re-winded, but did not see the delivery
Oh, I can do without the sound effects! How big of turtles do they get?
I rewound and found the chick getting pulled back into the nest in San Jose, but, for some reason, I can't load videos in the day on Blogger. I am not sure if it is too busy or what, so I will load it later tonight.
just regular size turtles...they really have to tear to eat them...
Off for a haircut, bbl.
eating again our nest....
CONGRATS TO BWO
Nest Update
05/01/08:
Egg Alert!
We have three eggs. We don't really expect a fourth, but that is a possibility. If it comes, it will be in 2-3 days.
Well, can't get 30 second cam or any fws/gov sites again!!!!
Oh no, Mits!
yes, sad to say, I'm blocked from Finland to the USA:(
Yeah, me too, no FWs sites again. What is up with that??
Sharon, can't get into the sites either.....aaarrrggghhhh!
Mits & Floralgirl
Neither of you have any info whatsoever in your profile - Could that be why you can't get into sites?
Interesting to see if Wanda can get in - she has her profile but before she couldn't get into the sites either.
Just A Thought
No cause I'm trying to open a FWS site and none of them will open for me, has nothing to do with blogger.
don't think so Jo, took down my profile long before I could not get onto the government sites, its not just NCTC, its anything with FWS
Then we can eliminate that thought!
Thought Google Got Ya!
I am beginning to notice that "PEARL" maybe isn't the largest anymore....
Maybe PEARL should be a PAUL ???? lol
Will never know!
Man I could eat some chocolate!!!!
May need to take a break here shortly
Megan Your new pic
What bird is that one & where was he?
Pileated woodpecker in a holly tree outside my kitchen window eating hollyberries . Chocloate- need to make a chocolate cake in a little while- daughter's birthday this weekend.
I thought you might be interested to know that right now in SD we have a Blizzard Warning for the Black Hills, a winter storm warning for most of the rest of extreme western SD, a Blowing snow advisory, a thunderstorm warning for some of the counties in southern SD and a tornado watch for eastern SD. Now you know why we are the "land of infinite variety". (One of our nicknames)
gee, Deb, makes for interesting living....:)
Deb, My husband and I have gone to Montana for the last 2 yrs for vacation. Only place we've ever been twice. The area is absolutely marvelous. Of course, we've only gone in May and June. We may try the fall this year.
Well I see we are back to a Denver screw up again...........grrrrrrrr
no fws sites grrrrrrrrrrrrr
Jo are you getting the 30 sec feed?
Boy Deb - no wonder you can't put your snow shovel away the first day of spring! Too much variety for me to handle. Does ND have the same weather conditions?
Yes Dana & my live feed is up/running
Usually only the spring is this strange for weather, sometimes the fall, but this year is taking a prize for extremes. Today 80, tomorrow snow.
I keep losing my live feed, but I think it is because I am moving pictures from my laptop to this computer.
Eating some leftovers
Is that the turtle you all saw?
I can't tell the two darkest feathered one apart anymore.
Is that TINY sprawled out sleeping=I see more light feathers on her but she is really large..........
My live feed is running smoothly
North Dakota can be really bad, especially in the winter, it gets so cold there. I don't think they get as many tornado watches as we do, but I don't get much of their weather reports down in this part of the state.
Melvsmom, I have been to the southern part of Montana, but have been to Wyoming more often and through the majority of that state. I have always wanted to see more of Montana, maybe one of these days.
no turtle eating today, Jo, we were just discussing when they might eat a turtle
I guess the server out there just likes you ISP or server Jo
Where has Norma been?
Norma, I'm thinking, may have had the Thompson family funeral today - I'm just guessing.
The one eaglet likes Lib's perch
Is that Tiny looking for nestovers?
I get the LF but not the 30 sec refresh now....had it and pic froze. Then all gone..........outspace or blackhole
Western Montana is absolutely the most beautiful place I've seen. Everywhere you look it just takes your breath. We found the best blackberry cobbler in Idaho and the people there are the nicest I've ever met (and I'm from the south; a G.R.I.T. you know). Still we keep going back there and want to continue.
melvsmom - I think it is Tiny with his tail end towards us - farthest over on the right.
I am off to CVS - cards I need....
And of course my prescriptions! Couldn't live without 'em!
BBL
Good Evening, Eagle Buddies.
Been away for awhile to Pittsburgh for my uncle's funeral, sorry to say.He was 80 & the last of 6 siblings on my Mother's side.
There were snow flurries Wed. AM there!
Saw a few interesting things on trip such as lots of dead pine trees on the roadside of the Turnpike btwn Breezewood & Pitts. Didn't look like forest fire as other trees & grass were ok. I know there's a caterpillar pest of pine, wonder what?! We saw a few hawks & in S. PA & N. MD, LOTS of beautiful redbud trees!
Noticed this PM in nest that there's a "whole lot of flappin' goin' on"! Scary, too... sometimes close to the edge!
sorry to hear about your uncle, NN, crazy weather running hot and cold everywhere
Thank you, Mits. You know it's true that many times you don't see friends or family except at weddings & funerals. So it's good to catch up w/all those that live far away.
Read about Deb's winter weather on May 1!? And saw about flooding in ME. Guess there's no drought going on this year yet.
Just heard a motor cycle---hope chicks aren't that wild already!!
BBL-dinner time
Sorry Nature about your uncle
ok which one of our eaglets is driving that motorcycle?????
hee hee Nature same thought ( :
If anyone can turn tv on channel 9 or your channel for CBS they are going to show rescue a pelican hanging by wing 40 ft up
eating again our nest
LOOKS LIKE A HATCHING GOING ON RIGHT NOW AT PA....BOTH FALCONS ARE THERE
NOPE thought I saw a chick, but guess not, just a changeover
The pelican was rescued and sent to a wildlife rescue to be nursed back to health. If I caught it right. There was a hook on fishing line in a pine tree and the pelican got wing hooked onto it.
This took place in Florida did not say where in Florida.
Adult fly in
Another adult fly in
Adult fly out!!
Second one in has the food (I think) up at Lib's perch
I'm watching
Whoops Adult flew out....really don't think there was any food brought in......
I think that was just a quick
"Nest Check" before bed time......
Great that it is 8:00 pm here & there
is still a good bit of light out..
Is one of our babies sneezing tonight?
Saw that Dana. Gene and Son-in-Law caught one in Sanabel Island, Fla. many years ago. Took a long time to get him undone.
WOW What a wing span!
Wingercises being done big time.
Jo, got my Blood work results today. Cholesteral was l82...down from 250's or 260's a year ago. 6 months ago it was 211. Hooray!
The one in the middle is definitely sneezing.
Gosh, babe in the middle is sneezing. Is that Tiny?
I see Spidey's trash is finally gone..hooray! Boy, I love SOUND!!
Good for you Wanda. Mine was over 200 & got new meds & last test in Feb. said 114, which I don't believe!
I tried for years to get my cholesterol down on my own...didn't want to take meds, but finally had to. Glad I did. I take a half of Lipitor. ll3 is really low.
Sound is unbelievable. You can even hear their P. S. LOL
there go the geese:)
Meds can really bring your count down! I'm like you, Wanda and I thought I could do it myself.
Took me off Zetia- they found that drug was not doing all it should have been.Put me on generic Zocor low dose. I will get blood work in 6 weeks & see if it is working. I was up to 212 without meds. But the LDL shot up - so meds are needed. Not smoking helps but I'm not exercising enough.
Pearl is looking like she is thinking, someday I'm going to be out there flying
Wanda, can you get the 30 second cam????
Howdy, all.
Thanks everyone for their nest reports today...I got to watch very little today.
Started back up walking the dogs...I've been slacking...so gotta get back exercising. My legs can feel it tonight!
Sounds like a parent up above, wings and mike noises...
Love the comment about the eaglet on the bike!
The bikes belong to the farmer with the labs....2 bikes and 2 dogs.
Re: chol., I started w/Lipitor-worked great but got led pain, so had Zetia. It did nothing. On Vytorin now.
just heard adult fly into the tree.
I wanted to watch Survivor tonight, but TV is all tornado stuff. I wish there was a way they could just play the tornado stuff for the areas it affects. (not me, everything is north of here)
There have been touchdowns and damage in western Iowa, no word yet on how bad.
I'm overdue for my blood tests, supposed to go every 3 months, haven't been since January..
that's terrible Deb, glad you are in the clear
sp. ----leg
I thought you meant leg cramps, NN
lol
Deb Does your dwelling have a basement area?
You can see the 3 CO eaglets right in the middle of the nest for a change.
They are so dark for being so young.
off to watch Grey's and ER
Very few houses around here DON'T have basements. I don't know anyone who doesn't have one. It sounds like lots of people are down there now. Tornadoes all over north of me.
BE BACK SHORTLY
Going to do some TV - OR
Computer games!
Ewwww...spidey is crawling by...
SPIDEY IS AT IT AGAIN
Early appointment for my Mom tomorrow...turning in now.
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS
Hi Anybody home.....?
naturenut, I have tried all of them and spend my nights walking the floors in charlie horses. It was terriable. Go to the health food store and get Non Flushing Niasin. It works. I brings the col. right down and there are no side effects.
Well pooey, You guys are party poopers. Its still light here and I'm ready to party not go to bed.

Anne Marie - don't stay up too late waiting for our party to begin!!!!
You have to work in the morning!!!
((hugs))
Good Night Everyone
Prayers for all our needs being offered up this evening
Good morning, world. Happy Friday! Nice out, 52 in PA, 59 here in VA. Our 3 and BWE kids are sleeping. Jackdaw on eggs, and congrats BWO! I see we have 3 eggs now, how cool!! Parent on the eggs, she just turned them. Both Isla and Angus are in the nest in Scotland, and osprey in the Finney nest, but can't see if it's the male or female. Female spent most of the day there yesterday.
All have a great eagle/panda day. Eyes to the sky, see the raptors fly! Oh, Isla is leaving, so Angus is gonna take his turn on sitting on the eggs. He walks from way up with his talons curled. Turning eggs...settling down and doing the wiggle. Now it's time to move the moss, that is so funny! Oh, he's not moving much this morning, that's a switch.
OMG, we have a hatching in PA. In fact, there may be two! I see 3 egg shells, 2 look like halves, and the third looks like a part of one! How cool, we have new babies!!! And oh, there is another piece of shell. Mom just wiggled down on them to get more comfy, but she didn't get up to show us! Congrats, PA!!! She's wiggling again, maye more are hatching or the babies want out.
PA falcon just can't gete comfy, or the kids and eggs comfy. She stays in place for a couple seconds and then wiggles again. Looks up, wiggles some more.
Oh, hubby just arrived and she's talking to him. Think he brought breakfast. he's talking to the breakfast, she's talking to him. Darn, didn't bring this up right away this morning! Sure wish I would have. Don't know when the babies hatched and if he's even met the kids yet.
BWO osprey is off the 3 eggs standing on the side of nest. Our kids are awake, sometimes doing wing stretches. Looks like BWE kids may still be sleeping. Jackdaw looking up, she must hear something on the roof. Osprey back in Finney's nest, and osprey still on eggs in Scotland. Haven't been watching to see if it's him or her. BWO osprey just got back on eggs.
Oh, mom talking to her babies, looks like she's talking to her tummy. Some serious wiggling going on!
OMG, we have a hatching as we speak!!! Thought she was eating shells, but it's NEW shells, weren't there a sec ago. Saw part of a baby, OH THERE IT IS!!!!!! Sticking out from under he chest. No wonder she was wiggling so much, he was hatching. So good grief, do we have 3???? I didn't think they hatched so close together. Man, now I can't wait to see what's happening. She was eating part of the shell, but she didn't eat all of it, just a little.
There is a baby right up under her chest, and it sticks his head out a little, or tries to. Every time he does that, mom takes a bite of the shell.
GOOD MORNING SUZ...
Where are the babies you are looking at?
Oh hi Wanda! The PA falcon is hatching as we speak! I have her on the whatever it is, media player I guess.
http://www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/falcon/
This OH, WHITE CHICK JUST POPPED HEAD OUT, how cool!!!! Oh there they are!
Oh man, I have GOT to go down the hall, and this is killing me. Wanda, can you bring her up on the live cam and keep an eye on her?
Both BW and out kids are awake and exploring their nest. PA falcon still wiggling, but not like she was. Waiting to see some more white fuzz, but have to take a sec off. Wanda, it's all yours, back in a minute!
