Just had a big line of strong storms, including tornadoes come through here. The two eaglets are wet, but acting normal. No sign of the adults or the fledgling right now. Live feed is down.

1 – 200 of 280 Newer› Newest»Thanks, Steve, let us know when you see it!
oh i sure hope he's ok. what a way to start your first day out of the nest!!
Thanks for the update, Steve. I hope he found his way to safety!
RP is back on...hopefully as the weather clears, so will the pic
Eaglets still at 1 and 10 in the nest
REally, BG, welcome to the world outside the nest!
hope the storm keeps moving on! all i have is snow on the still and live cams :(
OOH! I see flapping! eaglets at 10 and 12, the 10 is flapping!
Pic is back...eaglets look wet but good!
those babies are NOT happy! lOL
is that tree parts next to the cam?
what is that thing in the nest at 5 o'clock?
I wonder if something shifted in the storm, BG. Whatever it is, it wasn't in a picture from earlier today.
looks like the 10 o'clock eaglet is trying to dry out
maybe it's part of the camera housing or something? Steve, is there something around the camera that could have come off in the storm?
Hi all! Can not believe that I missed all the action. Thanks for the video.
I feel so bad and can only see out of one eye, so really it is hard to get any interest in this. Yeah, that bad!
The one at 12 o'clock has not folded its wings all the way back in yet.
West End nest was attacked by ravens earlier. Both chicks are fine, no video yet.
Just dry off those wings, don't get any flying ideas!
Lolly, I was hoping you were feeling better today. Make sure and take it easy!
Do you think they are out looking for Pearl?
I've been to the eye dr. this morn. He said there is no infection in the eye and he is "watching it like a hawk". LOL (I'd prefer "eagel eye") The infection in in the lid etc., swollen shut, hurts, matted, itchy, yukky, my head hurts, my throat hurts, I feel awful. waaaaa!!!!
Wow, sounds bad, hope you feel better soon.
Eaglets trying to dry out their wings
Yes, it is bad. Jack is taking good care of me. He had to cancell a trip to Houston and NASA. Felt sorry!
Well, I am going to go back to my chair and close my eyes.
Will check back later. Poor little eaglet, what a time to fledge. Hope he didn't blown too far from the nest.
Sorry you feel so poorly, Lolly. Cool cloths will help ;)
I have just been able to get back on to the Blog. Storm must have tweeked my 'puter. Couldn't get anything up. Internet was completely down. Had awesome winds and rain was blowing around in circles. We were prepared to go down to the basement. Really bad lightning strikes. Worried so much about Pearl. Hope Mom & Dad were very near for comfort.
Lolly, let your hubby take care of you. You need his TLC now. Glad you are under the Doctor's care.
Okay, heading out to Bedford now. Will check in later on. Keep posting.
Oh my they are switching to flapping mode again
COSTUME LADY:
I just went in for a one-hour stint at 911 during the worst of the stor; Inwood, Bunker Hill, and parts of Jefferson County got it the worst for around here, also places in Virginia. Hope you get back on-line soon. Watch it for me: I report back at 7 pm for 12-hours. Woof!
UPDATE FROM MEMA JO & MEGAN
Mema: power was out 3pm to 4:30pm. Winds & downpour was outrageous to say the least.
Another storm to come through around 7pm.
Megan: called me on her cell - DAMAGE BIG TIME. 30ft tree down - tops of trees all shaved! Yard in a shambles! Power lines down - hard to tell when they'll get them back up.
I am wondering about Hedgesviller's area. Wanda you guys ok?
SO SO WORRIED ABOUT OUR EAGLET!
Magpie Thanks so much for the update. I hope this one coming thru is lighter then the last!
You may have your hands (ears) full
on tonight's shift.
Stay Safe!
Oh no, Jo, so sorry to hear about Megan's yard. I hope the house is OK and the greenhouse. What about Dana?? She lives in a mobile home, doesn't she? I hope there are not injuries.
Look at the one sitting on the very edge of the OUTSIDE of the nest!!
Oh no I am so sorry to hear about Megans yard. OSunds like folks are OK Did she say anything about the Greenhouse? Is she doing OK. MeMa Jo I take it this means you are not napping.
Yes, Jo, we are OK here. It was a powerful storm but now real damage.
Heard on TV that tornado was in Sharpsburg area. Glad Megan is safe. MEGAN DO YOU NEED HELP?
I don't think Dana had been on yet today. I pray all our Momsters are ok. Megan didn't say any damage to house or gh - she would have said so if there was. It was mainly her yard area.
I hope Helen gets home from the zoo safely.
Sharon I know you have left for VA - I pray you are traveling in between the storms - safe journey & pray for a good report from surgeon tomorrw
BG - They are getting bolder every day! Evidenced by today's fledging!! :):)
NO NAP IS RIGHT! lol
Mema Jo--Hedgesville okay! Heard on scanner that Morgan County got some bad hits, as did the areas that Magpie mentioned. Did spend some time in the basement, tho', when they issued a "seek shelter now" warning! Grandkids were held at schools for about 45 minutes late; my Charles Town daughter was stuck on the tarmac at Dulles for over an hour waiting for all-clear to take-off for Vegas. Just heard that my "hometown" of Annandale got hit hard.
BirdGirl- There must be a balcony over there were Tiny sits all the time.
Great news. Hope which ever one it is had a good flight. Just hope they are around on Saturday.
Great Hedgesviller to hear you are ok. Didn't want a repeat of a few years ago.
I'll let everyone know if I hear
from anyone else. You all do the same.
I remember when Big boy came back in the one time not too graceful. Lib or Belle looked at him as if too say didn't I teach you better.
LOL Ceil I posted a link to Big boys landing back a couple of threads ago.... It has been such a busy day. I would ove to see 3 young and two adult eagles about now BUT I don't think we are gonna see our new fledgling back in the nest today for sure. Probably one of the parents is very close by...my guess is they know the weather remains unsettled in the area as well.
Remembering the 5 of them after the fledging in the nest. Knowing they were okay.
CEIL - It is probably one thread back, Glo found her video of the landing.
So funny but I would sure love to see a replay from the one that left today!
I looked at it Glo. Thanks. I don't think it will be back tonight. Just wishful thinking. Want to know it is okay.
Memory Lane - There is also a link I posted to the PhotoBucket pictures of 5 in the nest after fledgings a thread back
Ceil - they will still be there for our visit Saturday!
Tornado or shearing winds could have lopped off those tree tops at Megans.
is that the turtle shell i see in the nest at about 5 o'clock? wish we could zoom in!
Practice time!
If it is, it's the underside, BG
Heart just skipped a beat, thought Middy was leaving!
BB in 10 min
Well by June 12 all 3 had NOT yet fledged. And after seeign Big Boys landing my guess is Spunky could have been having second thoughts aobut ever leaving. But real life took over
I remember when Ms InBetween fledged and little Spunky was all alone.. I guess we'll feel that way with Tiny if he's the last to go.
Yep they are gettign restless again
I wish Lib or Belle would bring in a fish and tell them to stay put tonight!
geeesh can they sit any closer to the edge of the nest.
I want them to stay put too. We don't need 2 new fledges out there and another in the nest to ride out a storm alone if more storms are coming in this evening.
I never did leave nor did I take a nap - even when the power went out!
Must find some dinner and then I
will return.
I haven't seen a weather forecast yet for later this evening to see if anything has changed. It is very light out and still now!
BBL
All the birds are out chirping now
Looks like there are more storms on the radar...just entering far western MD - don't look to be as bad as first batch at this point...
Great pic on the cam at present....
Heading home, check ya later!
Hi all! Now I am worried about Megan. Has anybody else heard anything more from her? Oh, her yard!!! All the work she does, and after a great day yesterday!
Wish I lived closer....would head over with my rake and trash bag!!!
My heart aches for Megan. I know I hate it when a storm takes out any of my flowers and ocmpared to Megan I put in aobut 1 of the time she does. I also have aobut 1 % of the skill. I too so wish I lived closer. HInt she will possibly feed you choc chip cookies if you head over there.
Then its also time to hear form Dana and Nilla...come on guys check in.
And it is an eerie kind of still goodness!!!
As Paula mentioned earlier today, it is going to be in the mid 90's Saturday. I just wanted to remind all of you coming for the nest visit, the Eagle Express will be there for your comfort and convenience. We will have cold drinks, snacks, movies for the kiddies and the bathroom if needed. The capt. checked out the air conditioner and it is working very well. We will pick up anyone that wants a ride to the nest at the Clarion. I don't know if Jo has set a time to meet yet or not, but it will probably be 9 or 10 o'clock. HOPE TO SEE EVERYONE THERE!
Parent in our nest!
Yeah a big flopping fish and an adult
Now both parents!
and here's Belle to supervise the feedign is my guess.
Back to one!
I think its a good sign we saw both adults at the nest. If our fledge had any problems with the storm I think one of the parents would be staying right by it.
I wonder what the one eaglet is watching, a sibling??
There is only a small piece of fish left, Dad must have taken the rest to feed Pearl.
could be Lib and sibling are very close by as well.
Tiny was just on the POOP DECK. LOL
I think Middy was thinking of following Belle.
Left for a lii while. Is that Middy at 10?
Yes Lolly we think so :)
I think I hear pearl and a parent very close by.
Kids are calling out...can hear a parent!
Glo I think you are right. I hear a parent and sounds like a young one. I saw a wing go by and I don't think it was a parent.
There is something on a branch above. The tree moved.
I meant the cam shook. The ones in the nest keep looking up.
Its OK Ceil We won't tell your baby sister that you said the tree moved.
Thanks Glo. Won't be the first time I have seen things.
Yep I bet those two know right where Pearl is.
Where is Helen, she should be done at the zoo?
I talked to her a little while ago Deb. She is home.
Goodness what was that about
Eaglet calling out like crazy and flapping!
Thank goodness for sound. I was in the other room watching the news and heard the rucus! So, you think Pearl is close by? Hope so!
Thanks, Ceil!
The weather over your way was on the news.
Oh, I think I just heard Pearl!
Are you feeling any better Lolly?
Not really, Ceil. I am just trying to distract myself from my misery!
LOLLY, YOU GOT WAX!
That's what I thought. Prayers that you will feel better soon.
Ok, I give up! What is WAX? LOL
They are very quiet now. Like babies. I am going to get some work done while they are quiet. TTUL
I have returned
No email from Dana waiting for me
I will try to call Norma & will get a call into Megan...
I have had so much excitement today that I have neglected to send our the email for the Nest Visit! BAD JO!!!
Until it comes out --
Meet at Clarion by 10:00 OR
Go on over to the nest. I'll calm down after making some phone calls and send out the email
With the heat wave I think - The Eagle Express will have full occupancy
Has anyone checked on Norma? I don't have her phone number. Jo...Paula?
Lolly, Wax is when you post on 50, 100, 150, etc. I think it is good luck.
Thanks, Deb! I certainly do need luck right now!
Check you email Lolly
Wanda Check out my comment before yours about Norma.......
DEB I will email you the WAX joke - I just sent it to Lolly......
What is this commotion?
Thanks Jo! Going to go rest my eyes for a while. All seems fairly calm. BBL
NORMA ALERT
Called & she is safe & sound!
The severe storm did go through her area - she appreciates all of your concern for her. She was up at Study Group earlier today. She is home now.
Thanks, Jo, for checking in on Norma.
I am off to the grocery store. BBL
Hi All--Finally got on where there's electricity!!Lost it & phone at work. Stayed til I couldn't see enough anymore.
Weather Plus just Beeped--Severe Alert-T-storms just about everywhere. Gal working w/me today got cell phone call that tornado hit where she lives-Chesapeake Beach.Neighbor called her & said house right across street from her was destroyed!She finally got hold of hubby & he was OK-out in neighjborhood collecting pets & checking neighbors & that there was lots of damage. I'm waiting for a call from her.
WHAT a day for babies to fledge!!!
So glad Miss Norma is OK. Thanks, Jo!
Loretta, is the power off at your house? Or just your work place.
I just went back to the archives and Mr. Big fledged on June 7th and Ms. InBetween June 9th and of course our Spunky Flag Day June 14th.
Glad Norma is okay. Hope Megan's flowers are okay. She needs them.
More Weather Beeps--T-storms & tornado warnings for NBC - 4 viewing area.As well as VA & MD, listed 4 WV counties--Pendleton, Hampshire, Berkley, & Mineral.Gotta check for HOW LONG!
DANA ALERT
Just spoke with Dana & Ed and they are safe & sound! They will be at
the Clarion for dinner on Saturday
Good news. Thanks, Jo.
My house power is fine!In fact I don't think it went off at all.
There is a tall grassy field at work(the Largo farmhouse place) & a deer was stuck in the middle during the awful thunder, lightening.It was afraid to run for the trees and just sat down and waited it out! We could see ears thru binoculars.
BTW, hope Lolly feels better soon.
I think that Magpie was going to be working the 911 dispatch this evening.
I hate to do this but I need to get just a few groceries right down the road here...... BRB
BTW - Megan's home phone was busy. I will try when I get back.
Computers can be so frustrating at times....trying to make a movie...program decides tonight it doesn't want to work! No easy fixes out there!
WHOA! I was just about to check on you before leaving the house, Paula.
Glad you're home!
BBL
Don't know if I will be able to get back on later. So wishing everyone a good night.
I'm finally home and watching live.I cant wait until the weekend so I can tune in during the day.
Got Live Cam on. It's so bright!
Hope other Baby comes home for bedtime.I've heard some sneezing, too.
BTW, don't know if anyone mentioned it, but the BC teddy bear story got on the Global TV news a few times yesterday.The main 6:00PM news is called News Hour.It's on their Discussion site.
Gotta go eat.
My pal just called & there are pieces of splintered wood, shingles, etc. imbedded in her siding!3 houses next to her are demolished. While outside she saw something move==was green heron w/injured leg. She spent 1 1/2 hours finding wildlife help and a lady turned out to be 1 block away from her picking up an injured osprey!!!
I can hear sparrows or small birds but its getting really dark. Wish I could see our fledger.
I hope everyone is weathering this round of storms okay. Glad you are home, Anne.
some movement but I cant see what it is.
Eagle at Kent 1. They were both there when I turned it on.
thanks Deb. Its still warm and light here. I put dinner on the stove. I'm not eating right and gaining weight. Back to Dr. Atkins.
wind is blowing and sneezing going on. Do eagles get colds? :)
That's It, Spidey!You're gonna get it now! Cam was clear when I started writing before phone call.
I'm gonna do it---put my pic on here w/my hiking stick to knock down that web!
You go for it nature. I'm with you!
Dog barking kids settling down for the night. Parents out of sight
I wish the Delta cam weren't down, we would have something to watch while Spidey ruins our view.
Oh well I am going to leave you for a while and finish my dinner before I burn it. BBL
OK, Kids, I'm ready to go!!
LOL
Thank you everyone. You all are nice to care so much. Thank you Jo for the phone call. In to just let you see "WE ARE OK". Had a bad storm. We were in it going south on I 81. It missed our area thank God. Sorry for the areas it hit. Uprooting trees and causing any destruction.
Trying to figure who fledged?
We are pretty sure it was #1, Dana. Glad you are fine, hoping the Megan's damage isn't too bad, beyond the tree.
I finally have the Black Stork in the nest. It is very beautiful with all its little white storks. Will have to look and see when they get their black feathers.
Black Stork
Is one just flapping around? Or did the little traveler come home?
I didn't see anyone fly into the nest. They have been restless the last few nights.
So so sorry for Megan and anyone else that had damage.
Good evening everyone. I am in Bedford. It is pretty hot down here but the weather was good the whole way and is now. Hope it stays that way.
Oh, my! Such noise! Went to the black stork cam.....thought it sounded like a horse! LOL
Thanks Deb! Had not gone to that came before.
I am glad you arrived safely, Sharon. It sounds like a pretty big system.
Make that "cam". Hey! I can not see!
HELLO SHARON
HELLO THELMA
HELLO BEVERLY
HI THERE MATTIE!
oh yes ! WOLF WOLF BUDDY!
I think Magpie told us about this site, hope that is right. I had the sound turned down, so I missed it. From what I read the feathers will change by the time the birds are one year old.
Birds are vocal tonight. So happy to have sound!
Well, there was a lot of strange sounds coming from that stork!
Is this black stork cam in Germany as well?
Sharon "good luck" wishes sent your way..
Lolly hoping you soon get better..
Do we know what time it is at the black stork nest? Like is there a chance we may see soem action or are they going to sleep LOL
It is in Estonia. Female is Donna, male is Padis
Dave if you read back on comments "Happy Birthday Dave"..
I can't read what time the clock says at the top of the cam, it is too small. I'll google it.
It is 4:40 tomorrow morning, according to my search.
There he is--Spidey!!! He didn't hear my warning. Now I'm on the blog w/my girlfriend & Big Stick!
BBL
Sharon, will have you in my prayers tonight for a good outcome tomorrow. ((Hugs))
That's what the clock says. Sure is light for four in the morning.
Same time as in Finland on the water.
well maybe there will be breakfast soon then :)
Well, hello there. One eagle on our cam!
Not even a terrible storm would take down spidies web dang can't see much
Now they are waking up. funny noises!
There goes the stork again! I swear...at times it sounds like a horse!
See you all tomorrow
Gods speed Sharon and those who are or will be traveling.
** Remember that on beakspeak .com it will give you the current time for the cam.
Black Stork Kurepesa Estonia 4:58 am
Time to go rest my head again. BBL
Can only do this for short spells.
Lolly - I have yet to hear the noise you are hearing on the Black Stork.
I have the volume up and I even stopped the volume on our eagle cam so that it wouldn't interfere.
I am shutting down for the night. Stork just flew off, maybe to get some breakfast.
Night everyone.
Good night and sweet eagle dreams, my friends of fine feathers and fur! Blog with you in the morning. Hopefully we will get some news on our fledgling tomorrow!
I am going to follow you Deb.
Good Night Everyone
Pleasant dreams & peaceful sleep
Prayers for all and especially for
Sharon to get good report from Dr
((hugs))
Good Night All
Pleasant Feather Dreams
Best Wishes for Everyone's Good Health.
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS...SPECIAL ONE FOR SHARON AND ALL THOSE AFFECTED BY THE STORM.
GOOD NIGHT, EVERYBODY...
Glad to hear everyone came through the big storm without personal injury or home destruction. God bless you.
I don't think No. 2 will take off until Friday, so maybe we can look forward to No. 1 returning for a visit or a rest.
C(°ï®¡°)D

Trying to look at the 30 sec refresh to see who is in the nest.
Live feed for me is down.
I'm hoping when Steve gives us a new thread he'll have good news of our fledging (Pearl).
Good morning Wanda, Dave and Dana. Still two in nest. Dana I hope Steve can give us some info on fledging also. Cloudy here. Looks like sun on the nest. Sharon if you are on. Good luck today. Dave Happy Belated Birthday.
