Weather is looking the same for Scotland and Shep-town!
Wow, quite a lot happening. It's better when things are not as dramatic.
I've been playing witha wide angle lens I got for my birthday. No wildlife in these shots, just a couple of sunsets at BW from Sunday night:
Sunday's photos
RAINING here too PAULA!!---I imagine if it keeps it up-- we will see mushrooms popping up in their nests soon----
thanks, Bob....beautiful pics.
ROFLMAO Norma!!
I guess the eaglets are sleeping. I started the live feed, could see a couple of things moving, but it was like five minutes before any eaglet moved.

Beauty receiver her new beak yesterday!
Article and Video
Great article, but make sure and watch the video. How amazing and wonderful that so many people have the ability and desire to help Beauty.
Thanks, Paula, for sharing that with us.
Been out filling the bird baths, and watering plants. Gonna be another HOT day!
Enjoyed the video on Beauty. Neat!
Oh Paula, thank you. What a story!! She laid there fully awake the whole time. Unbelievable!
she is a BEAUTY.
The video on Beauty was unbelievable that she lie there for 3 hrs!I hope we can get hold of the follow up to see if she is able to eat with the new beak.
I got caught in a downpour while coming home. Love the video on Pearl Catching Air!
Early afternoon Panda Nap may be called for....... BBL
Here is praying for you DANA!!
Lots of wingersizes today!
Boy, when they are up front like that they really blend into the nest.
Lolly, what happened to your Stars?:(
LOL look at that footie sticking out
DID you all know TED KENNEDY has BRAIN CANCER----sending prayers---
The feed pic is really nice at the moment..clear, some color! Wish it were like that all the time!!
Another lawn mowing is done, it seems like the grass is slowing down already, YEAH!

Paula, did I see right - clear pic?? Where? :)
Evening all my friends,,,
Sorry to just pop back in like this but i think the drugs are wearing off, I'm feeling absolutely awful again, I've coughed so much I think my head is about to explode,,, and I think I ought to go to bed.
It's been a wonderful day, full of laughs and fun I wouldn't expect less from all of you, Thank you.
So I'll say goodnight God Bless, and if the drugs do the same tomorrow,,as Arnie says " I'll Be back",,,,,,
Thank you all for your company today it's been smashing.
love and hugs
chrissy
XXXXXXXXX
Chrissy, I have enjoyed your company today too! Take care of yourself and I promise not to rat you out to Frank! :)
my pic is awful....
turning off the cam:(
Mine looks whacky now too!
We need some sunshine!!
I sent Steven an email!
Paula, from your fingers to God's ears!
thanks, Sharon, I turned it off and then back on to see if that would help....cam looks like one sick puppy
Chrissy,
Welcome back...we were wondering where you'd been. Sure hope you get well soon! Don't overdo!! All that housework can wear you down, girl! Just watch and blog...the work can wait!
OOOHHHH, I just heard the little Scottish chick chirping. How sweet!
Oh, my goodness, Chrissy; I didn't know we weren't suppose to say anything to FRANK. I just emailed him and told him what a GREAT day we had chatting with you! MY BAD!!
roflmbo, Wanda
Very good, Wanda! :)
Getting some more air today! Too crappy to tape it
I can't believe what happened at PH and am very saddened :-( I know these things happen in nature but it doesn't make it easier. I didn't have time to watch the cam yesterday except in the early morning and when I turned it on today and no babes were there I thought they had succumbed to the heat. I then came here and saw Steve's note on the main page about a ruckus so I rushed over to the Channel Islands site. I haven't had much time to read the blogs but I have been watching the cams everyday when I can. I will be praying for the 2 babes and for the people taking care of them. I went back to the PH cam, why I don't know, and saw dad on the nest looking around as if to say "where are the babies?" I started crying and clicked off. At least the babes are in the best hands possible in order for them to come out of this! Hooray for the IWS!
i'm getting sound, no pic at nest...
Mine was like that for a minute and then the pic popped up.
ok back up seems better:)
Mit, we can not talk about the Stars! :( Very Sad! Season is now over. :(
Chrissy is now gone. It was great to have her back today. Prayers are with her to get better fast!
Wanda, for shame! Ratting on Chrissy like that! :)
I'm beautiful now! Got my hair cut and fixed! Beauty shops are great for making you beautiful!
Barbara, the lady who does my hair, was telling me about the roadrunner nest she has on her property. She just moved to this new place and she is just discovering what she is going to find on her land. She says is is about 10 feet up in a tree, but has not gone close to it. Doesn't want to stress the birds.
Is it just me, or does our cam have a new tilt?
I can see more on the right
Yes, there is a new tilt. And, may I ask, where is #3????
Ok, I see all three. One was hiding, hiding very well!
That is NOT NICE to hide. A little paranoid after yesterday!
Going to go do a little work out in Jack's shop. BBL
landing was aborted by parent...ok came in the other side
hope the right side of nest is not falling apart
adult gone, didn't see any food come in
and the chicks, are not happy about that
You would have thought the biggest fish ever had been brought into the nest!
yeah and all I saw was some leaves.....maybe appetizers
looking around, and flapping around
Thanks for the great links, Paula. I've been busy between checking those out, lunch and a short nap, but I think I got the essential info on the recent happenings ... thanks to your links.
Has anyone seen the promised photos and video from the team on the scene at Santa Cruz yesterday??
Got to get some normal work done, sorry to say. My nieces birthday is today and her mother's is tomorrow ... a first cousin's is next week and mine not long after that. My Grandmother's was May
10th, so we had May pretty well covered.
Got to send cards and gifts...talk to you all later. :~)

KENTUCKY OSPREY CAM
that is the cam Lisa's had on the BWO update
Sounds like their peeping at a parent for a snack :-)
They're NOT their...geesh!
Pearl seems hungry:)
wow, my gas station is selling gas for $4.01, shouda bought it the other day when it was $3.97:(
That is awful, I thought it was bad here at 3.69, glad I am here. Check gasbuddy.com, maybe you can find it cheaper.
Mits, I see regular gas (all kinds) selling from $3.71-$4.15/gal in So Cal.
I looked up the avian pox the Norfolk chick could have, and it a nasty related to chicken pox, etc. It can be fatal if left untreated, but Norfolk's eaglet should probably be alright. I doubt they will return it to the nest, but I'm not 100% sure of that.
Read up on it, unless you're depressed from current happenings already. Just do a google.
C(°ﮡ°)D
Jim
Kentucky osprey cam is awesome.
lol.....that is where I checked it, Deb...I might find it cheaper on the Eastern Shore tomorrow when I head to the beach....but I usually don't waste time driving around, been going to this one gas station for 24 years.
did you watch the videos of the chicks, Ceil?
We paid $3.73 at the Royal Farm and they are usually higher than out the road but it seemed today they were about the same as everyone else
I don't drive around either, but definitely watch for cheap prices while I am driving. I got gas yesterday at 3.61 in SF when I drove by a station that had that price. I saw stations at 3.73 and kept going.
I watched mom feeding the one the others were sleeping.
Was just watching the loon cam. Water is rocky. Got dizzy and almost fell out of the chair.

CT osprey looks wet.
hey Ceil, were you watching the loon cam???
UPDATE FROM THE NATIONAL ZOO
MOST OF IT WAS THE UPDATES FROM SAN DIEGO
May 20
We have heard more about the situation at Wolong from a colleague at the San Diego Zoo's Conservation and Research for Endangered Species, and are relieved that there have been some improvements. Food and medicine have been brought in, and the road leading out has been opened. At least two emergency shipments of supplies for pandas have been delivered, and because of damage caused by the earthquake, many of the pandas are living in smaller makeshift enclosures.
We cannot confirm the number of people at Wolong who were killed, but none were staff or caretakers at the breeding center. Our source says as many as five people who lost their lives may have worked at the Wolong Nature Reserve. He also said that a few pandas escaped from the breeding center after the earthquake, but he thinks that all but two have been caught up and are safe
Think they are going to eat sticks soon, if no food is brought in:)
Isla is resting...
Off to watch the Oriole game Talk tomorrow. Have a good night everyone.
Go O's:)
hubby is home with dinner:) NCIS is 90 minutes tonight, Wanda
DINNER HAS ARRIVED...
AND IT IS A DANDY
Hello Finally Everybody! Couldn't find a turned on 'puter at work to look at all day! Was dying!!!
Tried to read most of today's. Guess we found out most pertinent PH info last night.
Just saw 2 of our babies standing like soldiers at attention!
So glad to see Chrissy was on--thought about her and what a blimey fit she would be having watching the first osprey chick hatch! (We'll have to use "daft as a brush" when she's on)
At the Park---our Osprey Cam nest resident male whose mate & 3 chicklets disappeared has finally accepted the advances of a new sweet young thing.If they both stay at the nest, we should be able to add a foster chick to their care when bobbles are larger.
Opinion on the female's loss is probably predation--same as last year. (But we don't see that at night time, that's why yesterday's PH incident seems so gut wrenching)
On way out, tried to see a littl of eagle nest & there was MAJOR wingercises. The wind was so strong, it was movinging the leafy blockage for a few seconds.Got to dwnld cam to see if anything shows. I def saw one large eaglet.
Enough for now----Idol starting soon if I can stay awake! DUH
Screams for arriving dinner!
Nature, you had me ROFLMBO! Using "Daft as a brush"! Love it! Chrissy is just so wonderful!Time for American Idol. I'm off to watch it. BBL
Just checked in an mom was feeding all of them. She ate a little and then feed the ones that wanted more. Such a nice picture.
WANDA, NCIS is 2 hours, not 90 mins. like I thought...
NEW THREAD
Update On PH chicks, from founder Dave Garcelon
4:49 PST
This message was sent to Annie Little and Kate Faulkner ... from Dave Garcelon ...
Hi Annie and Kate,
I spoke with Pete who had just left the vet's office. The one bird does
have a fractured humerus as we had thought, but no other injuries. He is
going to have an orthopedic surgeon look at the bird and do the surgery
(probably pinning and wiring the bone). The other chick has been grabbed
in the bill (probably how it was drug out of the nest) and it has a deep
puncture wound in the upper mandible. The vet wanted to keep that bird for
additional treatment and observation to make sure no infection started.
So, that is the news for now. I will keep you posted when I hear more.
Dave.
