CEIL---That CT site is funny!--All those chicks lying there makes it look like MOM OSPREY has a patch-work quilt!---

normabyrd said...

Must fix dinner!!---Hope NCTC doesn't get that storm---I think it may have moved up toward PA!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good evening all. I have been in Beford for about 3 hours. Had a little work to do to catch up for this week. They had golf ball size hail in Bluefield and the best I can tell, it is heading toward Bedford. Lovely!

Mema Jo said...

I am enjoying watching the flamingos. One just stood up and had its tail feathers grabbed by the one nesting beside it. It looks as though there is a storm with lightning in DC.

Mema Jo said...

Hi Sharon - So you're saying that the storm is following you!

magpie said...

Good Sunday Evening Everyone.
Sounds like lots of Sunday fun, and good Flamingo watching. They were still pink when I first got home, now they are just white...guess it's the hour of the day or something. I should be home long enough in the morning to spot for chicks like many today seem to have seen.
The Okla Eagle Nest site looks like it is all akimbo...a high up view of the ground and power lines, and surely, no eagles in sight from this view.
Heron cam, empty as can be.
And I am still puzzled about the Finney Nest..anyone have any ideas? Osprey parent is in the exact same position as when I left early this morning.

Costume Lady said...

Hi, ladies...grandson was playing solitaire all evening. I finally told him his time was up and it was my turn. He said it was OK, because the game was giving him a headache. LOL

magpie said...

Osprey adult at Ferry Boat Finney's
and OUR nest is rather empty looking isn't it? Glad to hear they were at the nest during the day.

Costume Lady said...

ROFLMBO at Norma and the hatching of the Red Pandas. She is a GEM!

magpie said...

On second thought, what is that BLOB in the middle of OUR nest?

Could it be ......???????

MITS said...

Magpie, infra-red light kicks on around 9 o'clock at flamingo cam, Finny nest is stuck on yesterday's view

magpie said...

Y E S !!! IT HAS FEATHERS!

MITS said...

someone needs to tell Norma the story of the "birds and the bees" :)

magpie said...

AND, it's moving !!! Now closer to the "top" of the nest. Making room for more children?

deb said...

yes, Magpie, there is a juvie at 12.

deb said...

Now it moved and is blurry.

MITS said...

why yes, it does, Magpie

MITS said...

ok, now I don't see it after the refresh

deb said...

I don't see if anymore either.

Mema Jo said...

Watching the flamingos - they use their beak like it is a vacuum cleaner by rubbing it all over their feathers...

MITS said...

shutting down for tonight, doing laundry....talk to you all tomorrow, saw my dolphins today, and a bunny in the sand dunes...GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE

magpie said...

Well, the eaglet seems to have disappeared...was it an Eagle Dream?

MITS - Thanks, your information is always top-notch. I have been worried about Finney's Nest, and must admit I opened it up before the BLOG tonight...I ALWAYS open up the NCTC Nest cam first, though.

Okay - I will be all ready for PINK in the morning. Supposed to be off. Backwards isn't it? Work on Sat and Sun, off during the week.

West End is looking rather magical too.

magpie said...

I thought WEST END cam pic was frozen too, a cool shot of a babe on its tippy toes with wings spread, but he is back down in the nest now.

magpie said...

I'm still dreaming I think an eaglet blob in our Nest....maybe it came back, or maybe darkness is just playing with my eyes. It's more like a shadow or an apparition.

Lolly said...

Good evening all! Can not believe I have not been on all day!! I have done some flamingo watching though. Looks like Momma flamingo may be sitting on the baby down in the ditch.????

Hey, CANDY!!!! YOU GET A FACIAL!!!!! You can get beautiful and the kids will not recognize you when you go back to school.

Guess what our conversation was about at supper. Our trip to WV in October!!!! Wahoo!!!! So, we are talking about it!!!!

magpie said...

'Night MITS - Happy Panda Fur Dreams!

Well, DEB and MITS - I guess
"It Was What It Was."

Mema Jo said...

Sounding good, Lolly! You bring that b-day boy with you or celebrate a week or so ahead with him.

Lolly said...

That's what we did last year....celbrated a month ahead of time as we were going to New England. We will do the same this year. That way he has an extended birthday!!!

Costume Lady said...

Lolly, my mother was always torn by the fact that she always planned her vacation during my Karla's birthday. (Sept. 1...perfect time for vacation) She handled it very well. She bought her a gift ahead of time and gave it to me. On the day of her birthday, Mom would phone her and Karla would open her gift while on the phone. It was a very special birthday moment for Karla; she loved it that way.

Costume Lady said...

Yes, indeed, Candy is going to get a FACIAL...and Magpie is due to be put on the line-up.

Lolly said...

Great idea Wanda. I told Laurel to have her children in the Fall. Being a kindergarten teacher I wanted my grandchildren to have that advantage. Well, she did, Joseph Oct. 18, Jacob Sept 8. For several years we could not travel in the fall. Can not leave new babies or one year olds on their birthdays!!!

Lolly said...

Hey....and when I come to open house. You guys will recognize me...I'll be riding my horse. LOL

Costume Lady said...

OK, Lolly. We will make arrangements for your horse. Our neighbor has horses, I'm sure he would be glad to board the horse of such a beautiful lady for FREE!

Costume Lady said...

Lolly, I was really thinking more of seeing you with three grandbabies and a popsickle stick stuck up your neck and stuffed into a beer bottle.

carolinabeachmom said...

LOLLY I just came back on to close out and saw that beautiful pic of you on your horse. WOW! That should be a sight gallping up to the NCTC center for open house. Lovely pic! :)

carolinabeachmom said...

WANDA I finally got on your site and you have some nice pics on there along with the funny ones. You are getting as funny as NORMA. You go girl.

Costume Lady said...

Candy....be sure to check my blog tomorrow for your AFTER FACIAL photo. Have a good, restful sleep.

carolinabeachmom said...

Jey WANDA. How does one stick a popsicle in ones nec?

Costume Lady said...

Norma and I are one of a kind...we both have a lot of Senior Momens!

carolinabeachmom said...

WANDA A facial wouldn't help these wrinkles, but thanks anyway. Why am I due for a facial?

NatureNut said...

Good Evening Everyone! Had 'puter off for awhile. WE got the storm at about 8PM when it was supposed to be over!!!Sheets of rain, lightning, thunder coming from the South??!!That's unusual. Did nest get rain? I can't see it well enough to see if anyone there.

carolinabeachmom said...

It was supposed to say HEY and NECK?

NatureNut said...

I'm hungry now for dessert. I'm getting a popsicle!!!

carolinabeachmom said...

Welcome NN. I wish you hadn't said popsicle again. I just have one left in the freezer that I forgot about. :(

Costume Lady said...

OK, Candy. Check your email...sent you a photo of Lolly with a popsicle stick all the way up to her neck and stuffed into a beer bottle.

Costume Lady said...

Loretta, no rain to speak of and no thunder or lightning at all here (near the nest).

magpie said...

Fantastic photos, Lolly. I love the gardens, and the grandsons are precious. And of course the horse photo...priceless.

Lolly said...

Candy, you earn a facial if you post at 100, 200, etc! You were #200.

And, you saw what that 2nd facial did for me! I have earned a 3rd but have not done it yet!

Lolly said...

Well, what can I say. I would really rather ride my horse that be stuck in a bottle! ROFLMBO

Costume Lady said...

CANDY...remember when at 100, 200, 300 comments you got WAX? Well now, you get a Bird Poop FACIAL. Dana started it. So I have been haveing a little fun making up AFTER FACIAL PHOTOS. I have been posting them on my blog. You know how crazy I am sometimes!

Lolly said...

Than....not that! Excuse the typos.

NatureNut said...

I wanna see a popsicle stick in a beer bottle on Lolly's neck!! Put it on the blog!! LOL

Lolly said...

Thank you Magpie!! My horse photo is a good one...it got my best profile. :)

carolinabeachmom said...

Got it WANDA. I see what you mean. :)

Mema Jo said...

Lolly & Naturenut I sent you an email

Costume Lady said...

Loretta, I was going to send you a photo of Lolly with her popsicle stick, but I don't have your email address.

NatureNut said...

Let me check email--Jo sent something. I bet that's it!

carolinabeachmom said...

Can anyone tell me how to get a pic off my blog. I was playing around trying to figure it out and a pic of my wonderful face came on and now I can't get it off. Help!!!

Costume Lady said...

Candy, go to edit post and delete it.

carolinabeachmom said...

Oh well, it is getting late anyhoooooo. Guess I had better hit they hay before I do something else foolish. I was just trying to see how you all got your pics and videos on there for us to look at. All have a peaceful and restful night. Tomorrow brings a new day with new surprises. Good night all.

HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY GYPSY!!!!!!!

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks WANDA. I'll try it tomorrow when my mind is in better shape. Sleep tight.

Mema Jo said...

Candy That is a beautiful picture of you! Let it on there!!

Mema Jo said...

Time for me to close it down
I won't be on until later tomorrow - Ed and I will be busy most of the day.

Good night everyone
Peace to you & yours
Prayers for all needs for everyone being said

Mema Jo said...

Happy Birthday Gypsy!
Meow! Meow! Meow!

NatureNut said...

Email froze, had to reboot, etc, then this one wouldn't take Password %*&#S05T
NOW I got the stick, beer bottle!!
You guys are so clever!!!

deb said...

Night all, I agree, leave your picture on there, Candy. It is fun to see what everyone looks like. I want to know whose voice is whose on Paula's video, too.

Night, all!

Mema Jo said...

I'll never tell lol

NatureNut said...

Night to all those leaving...Pleasant Feather Dreams

Stay on there, Candy!

Was checking Nat'l Zoo & they have nightovers from 6PM to 9AM!!! Looks like most of the dates are taken & you have to join FONZ.Think my membership ran out.

Costume Lady said...

Loretta, you had a popsicle stick stuck into you also and stuffed into a beer bottle. Did you see that photo? We had so much fun with your photo, and Deb & Lolly's. We ordered you steaks and talked to you once in a while. Really! We are a CRAZY bunch of Momsters and no one has anymore fun than we do!

Costume Lady said...

My houseguest is sound asleep now and I think he has the right idea.

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS

Lolly said...

Oh, dear! Not to sure about the open house now. You talked to our pictures?????

NatureNut said...

Yes, Wanda! I saw all the NCTC visit pics Paula put on her site!! Outrageous!
Night all!!

Lolly said...

CANDY!!! Love the picture! You should see me studying the pictures of the group, trying to figure who is who. Isn't it funny how you picture people just by their personalities!!!!

Costume Lady said...

Yes, Lolly. We actually talked to your photos. We asked you if you were enjoying your steaks and when none of you answered us, WE ate them!

Lolly said...

Yeah, I know!!! I'm not too sure about this group.

Lolly said...

So, what do I say to Jack? I want to drive across the country to see this group of women that talk to pictures, orders them steaks and then eats them themselves. Not only that they give themselves bird poop facials. I could go on and on about this group. LOL

Lolly said...

Time to call it a night. Good night one and all....sweet dreams!

magpie said...

Good Monday Morning Eagle Friends ( :

I see the little flamingo chick didn't have to get to the parent. At some time the parent went to it. Cause I see the parent down in the hole area on the chick and not on the mound where the parent had been laying on an empty nest. GOOODDDDDD!!!!

wvgal_dana said...

I see at 9:25pm last night Lolly commented on the same flamingo laying on chick down in the ditch....( :

wvgal_dana said...
