Jo I can trap him...did my sister's for her but we are in farmer country here....don't think they would like my trapping him.
As long as he keeps his hole small enough my dog can't go through. God's groundhog can run through my yard too. I'm the only one on this side with a fence up. So I guess I AM IN 'HIS' WAY LOL
I got a letter from City Bank today stating Howard had a savings account I didnt know about. How about that. I just got my trip in October paid for. thank you Howard.
Welcome home from your tiring day of work, Anne Marie! You mentioned going to your son's for the weekend - How long will DIL be hospitalized - or is she coming home already?
they will let her go tonight as long as she stays at the hotel across the street. If she has no problems tomorrow she can go home and back again in two weeks.
Anne-marie, Hope everything seems a bit brighter for you and yours today. As a survivor, all I can say is keep hope and faith alive, and thank God from whom all blessings flow...I think everyones prayers are what have gotten me this far.
Magpie said earlier -- Meteor Showers predicted for tonight, the Bootids....should start around 10:30 and last through the night. Hope there are some to see...Make Wishes on the "shooting stars" if you see them.
Looks as though if you can find the handle of the Big Dipper you may see some. Not sure how clear out it is tonight. Didn't go out yet to check..
Yes, Paula, and THANKS! This time of evening we love to sit outside. We walk around the yard (call it "overseeing") and admire our work. Seems like I have been doing more recently, but it is so rewarding.
Hi Jo! Jack had taken over the computer last night. LOL Going to have to leave in a minute...late dinner. We were out watering pots. Have to do it every other day in this heat.
I'll be darn, little buggers came in late....have to check out for the meteor shower here, but with the city lights it is usually very hard, need to be out on my facial boat
I think I see a shiny eye up at the noon position where the one just laid down. I know he's hoping there will be some nestovers! I just wonder what it is that was caught in the darkness of this evening hour......

Great news today. We decided to start exercising the eaglet's tendons by providing a perch in the enclosure. As you can see by the picture, the bird thought this was a fantastic idea and now spends many hours of the day perching and grasping the new furniture.
We are continuing to provide supportive care and the patient continues to gain weight. From a surgical standpoint, the stars are aligning and I feel comfortable to report that we should have the mass debulked within the next two weeks. This has been a long process - longer than we had intended. However, in the interest of doing the very best for this bird, we've been consulting with the very best avian surgeons. The spring/summer is a very busy time for everyone and arranging schedules and the necessary equipment to perform the surgery (laser and radio surgical instruments) has been a challenge. The downfall of waiting is that the beak may be more deviated than if the surgery took place two to three weeks ago. On the other hand, the surgery would have been more risky as the mass was still in the growth phase and the immune system was not as effective.
I think they are still having problems at Finney's nest. The picture goes away frequently and you get the "connecting" message. Also, I think it must be very stormy there....it is really dark.
I just received a call from my teacher friend in Texas that we prayed for that had the knee surgery. She is home and in wonderful spirits. She says thank you so much for all of our prayers. Her doctor said it was the easiest surgery he has done in years and she is doing very well.
Cam and Live Feed is Stellar tonight, nice clear pics.
Which is more than I can say for the SKY: a ZILLION clouds and no stars. But I am still wishing on shooting stars because I know they are out there...Imagination.
Might try again at 0430...
Good Night All, Prayers for all, for peace, wellness, joy, serenity, comfort,safety, and REST.
We have tornado and thunderstorm warnings all over central SD tonight, I hope they die out before they get to me. We have flash flood watches out for my area from last night's rain. Just when the fields were starting to dry out.
Check you e-mail Magpie! Stay safe, Deb--hope storms miss you. Vicki, you must stsay longer! Mits...what did you think about Hopkins? So similar to "Trauma: Life in the ER" at Shock Trauma, huh? Good night everyone! Blessed peace to all.
Don't know when you will see our posts today, maybe not until well into the split and fresh thread: Hope you feel better fast.. It's always nice to see your "early morning greetings" .
Have you been checking out the Wood Duck Cam? Different nest, 13 eggs I think, and hatching, probably pretty soon.
Clouds ate up the meteors here, rained in middle of the night, I think if I had gotten up at 0430 like I was gonna do, I might have caught a few...There should still be some residual ones over the next few days anyway....
Yep, 66° here right now, I'm going out to cut flowers, gonna be a hot one today:( hope the sun stays behind the clouds for a while. LAter- have a nice morning!
Loch Garten nest, parent has been out for awhile, two remaining chicks seem very restless...don't think they have had a meal for many hours now....tough situation there.
BTW, I got this e-mail after I sent Loraine the pic of eagle in KENT tree......
Hi Helen, It's nice to hear from you again. Yes I love seeing them in the tree too. They are both here every day, they don't always perch on this branch like you have here but they are in the area.. I hear them all the time and under my breath I'm telling them "GET BACK TO WORK!". Take care, and have a great weekend. Loraine :)
I saw that that beautiful visiting bird at Ferry Boat Finney's last night and tried to capture it in a photo, but it left too fast. Looks almost like a grackle with some yellow on it...or a variation of some kind of MAGPIE! Will have to study my overseas bird books to see if I can find a match.
Ta Ta For Now. Time to get ready for the salt mines.
Good morning everyone! Yes, Magpie, our baby girl is coming home today!! Now if my sister would come home. I have been without them both all week, had about enough of that.
Good morning everyone, Yes I have had Sharon all week and it has been great. Beverly she has decided to move here. :') Hope everyone makes a great day. I just loved the talons yesterday!!

Paula Is that a flower from your garden? It is beautiful.
I saw that Dana - lol Quick in & out
How's your ground hog? You need a
good ground hog trapper! Then they can take him away to a farmer's field.
Hi family, just got home and I need to do chores but wanted to touch base.
The little Wild Watch Bluebird
should be out of there before he grows to large to make it out of the opening!
I dont think the Kent Lady could convince her new boy friend to set up house keeping. I know just how she feels. Poor thing.
ANNE-MARIE, so good to have you with us...we would be there if we could...and would do those chores for you !
I cant figure out how miss bluebird hasnt broken that other egg. She bounces all over it.
Your a sweetie Maggie. Dishes to load and garbage to take to the curb. that kind of stuff. I still have time. Its still light and warm.
Jo I can trap him...did my sister's for her but we are in farmer country here....don't think they would like my trapping him.
As long as he keeps his hole small enough my dog can't go through. God's groundhog can run through my yard too. I'm the only one on this side with a fence up. So I guess I AM IN 'HIS' WAY LOL
They are so big. Dont they distroy your gardens?
I got a letter from City Bank today stating Howard had a savings account I didnt know about. How about that. I just got my trip in October paid for. thank you Howard.
Welcome home from your tiring day of work, Anne Marie! You mentioned going to your son's for the weekend - How long will DIL be hospitalized - or is she coming home already?
they will let her go tonight as long as she stays at the hotel across the street. If she has no problems tomorrow she can go home and back again in two weeks.
WOW, isn't that something, Ann, he is looking out for you
Mits I agree with you. Everytime there is a money problem something comes up from Howard. bless Him.
Now that I think about it he paid for last year too.
off to watch CSI, and the the premiere of HOPKINS, based on the hospital of my hometown, BALTIMORE:) BBL, MAYBE. If not, GOODNIGHT EVERYONE
My home office doesnt have a window so I have to keep a watch on Washington to see how much daylight I have left.
Hugs Mits....
Its still so smokey I had to use headlights to come home.I have the filter on the air so I wont breath the junk.
I am going out to do chores. BBL
Dana...that was Magpie, not me. I knew you were a "local"!!!
Margy...everything okay..got your message and responded. Check your e-mail!
Yep, Jo...answered your e-mail. I think everything is fixed now!
Dana, bet the farmers wouldn't mind a bit...they just would want you to take it far away from the farms!
Anne-marie,
Hope everything seems a bit brighter for you and yours today. As a survivor, all I can say is keep hope and faith alive, and thank God from whom all blessings flow...I think everyones prayers are what have gotten me this far.
Anee Marie - just saw some lightening bugs out tonight while I was doing some late watering!
Thanks, Mits for the heads up on Hopkins.
Jo, that is a lily from out front. They are just coming into bloom.
Magpie said earlier --

NEST ALERT
Yes, Paula, and THANKS! This time of evening we love to sit outside. We walk around the yard (call it "overseeing") and admire our work. Seems like I have been doing more recently, but it is so rewarding.
I can see 2
How about everyone else....
WHOO HOO! I wish someone would have caught that "STEAL" It was
beautiful
It is really late for a snack!
If I could WHISTLE
really loud - I bet that would get everyone's attention on the NEST!
We usually don't expect to see any action this late in the evening.
Hi Jo! Jack had taken over the computer last night. LOL Going to have to leave in a minute...late dinner. We were out watering pots. Have to do it every other day in this heat.
I SEE TWO TOO - THE LITTLE RASCALS, WAITING SO LONG TO COME HOME !
Lynn - got your yahoo...it hit SPAM folder of all things, kookoo, I sent you one back so it if hits SPAM, you will see that is from me.
Mema JO: You are right, BOOTES cluster pretty near to Big Dipper all righty.
Lots of city lights here, but I am gonna give it a shot...from the back yard..
Off to eat! BBL
Little ratfinks! I turned the live feed off! Eating in the nest!!
Man oh Man, that one eaglet is chowing down!
off to get a cappucino...keeps me awake longer to watch for shooting stars..
TTFN xo
I'll be darn, little buggers came in late....have to check out for the meteor shower here, but with the city lights it is usually very hard, need to be out on my facial boat
and they are hungry!!!!!!!!!1
Such a nice clear pic!
I think I see a shiny eye up at the noon position where the one just laid down. I know he's hoping there will be some nestovers! I just wonder what it is that was caught in the darkness of this evening hour......
Aww all done and 3 in the nest...it looks like for the night.
Someone is in the nest don't know who...
I think it's Pearl and Middy Dana. Neither one looked like Tiny to me.
Posted today about BUDDY

Hey we have a camper tonight!!!
Hi Vicky - There are 2 campers!
Be back in about an hour.......
2 tired and glad to be "home" juvies ( :
Watching NY Animal Rescue
I see two in our nest, sacked out.
Two eaglets at Okla perched on rail.
Three chicks at Finneys, growing and feathering out.
One Osprey at Ferry Boat Finland.
And one magpie about to go check for meteors...partly to mostly cloudy, we'll see what happens.
past tense Ferry Boat Finneys - he's outta there.
Buddy pictures
I think they are still having problems at Finney's nest. The picture goes away frequently and you get the "connecting" message.
Also, I think it must be very stormy there....it is really dark.
Have not been to the stork nest in a very long time....so much to see, so little time! Anyway, those two little storks are so cute!
Kitchen is clean and garbage in at the curb,
Well, Anne Marie, what do you think of yourself after the facial?
I just received a call from my teacher friend in Texas that we prayed for that had the knee surgery. She is home and in wonderful spirits. She says thank you so much for all of our prayers. Her doctor said it was the easiest surgery he has done in years and she is doing very well.
boy Lolly dont I wish I looked like that.
Where does she live in Texas?
Thanks for the update and link for Buddy, Lolly. He's so cute!
Good news, Anne.
Aren't you impressed....I have learned to make the "blue thingy". LOL
Lolly she lives in Athens.
Paula, how many are in the nest tonight?
Oh, that's right! I remember you told me that! Forgot!
Paula, you saw lighting bugs?
Lolly your gardens are beautiful. So are you babes. The look like mine.
Thanks!! Proud of the yard, work hard in it. Very proud of my boys!
Laurel told me tonight Jacobs's newest word is "actually". He is three.
My three grandsons are 7, 3 and 2. How old are yours?
Going to go read for a while. BBL
I put Brandons picture in my album with his two broken arms. poor little guy.
Lolly I have 8 grand. 22, 21, 18, 10, 7, 4, 2, and one to be born nest week.
If you want to see another Buddy picture, take a look at the Norfolk forum. Buddy has quite the aim with his poop shoots:

We have tornado and thunderstorm warnings all over central SD tonight, I hope they die out before they get to me. We have flash flood watches out for my area from last night's rain. Just when the fields were starting to dry out.
DEB - take care, we have you in our prayers.
Love this little blurb at the end of the Buddy Pics:
"Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or play with it, pee on it and walk away" (no author cited)
Good Night again, this time for real. xo
Poor Brandon, at least they are casts that are below the elbow.
Check you e-mail Magpie!
Stay safe, Deb--hope storms miss you.
Vicki, you must stsay longer!
Mits...what did you think about Hopkins? So similar to "Trauma: Life in the ER" at Shock Trauma, huh?
Good night everyone! Blessed peace to all.
Kent eagle left, it was nice seeing one again, it has been a week or so since I have seen one there. Night, everyone.
LOL, Anne...you said "nest weekend"
I think this bird watching is rubbing off on you!
OMG Anne, poor Brandon. At least they are both below the elbow.
Gnite, Deb.
Hedgie, you won a facial!!
Just for fun!
My Howling Dogs
And yes, Lolly, I am impressed!
You really got the blue thingy down!
Paula, loved the howling dogs! LOL
Anne, poor Brandon! Our school secretary once had two broken arms. Just imagaine all that had to be done for her. Not good!
Deb, thanks for the additional pictures of buddy. Had to laugh at the fan....brings to life the comment "when ______ hits the fan!"
Keep seeing Osprey at the nest on the water. Right now there are two. Wonder if they will try again?!
Gnite, all!
LYNN, gets a facial!!!
Nite all! Sweet dreams!
Sweet dreams everyone!
Good Night
Prayers for all
Here I am again...waiting for sleep to come to me....no nap today, too much iced tea, I guess.
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS
GOOD NIGHT, ALL IN EAGLE LAND....
I must have crossed paths with a flu virus or something, and I've been feeling down from the effects most of the day.
Doesn't feel like a class A sort of virus, so I should be better soon.
I hope you are all well and having fun on the netcams...
C(°ï®¡°)D
Jim
Two in the nest when I got up 15 mins ago, one gone, second one at the launch pad.
Good Morning Everyone.
Wow, just before I finished the comment, second one bailed.
..And just like that, two back in the nest again..same two? Trying to figure it out....
I think it is Pearl munching on last night's leftovers, and Middy, trying to sneak a bite and being rebuffed...
GOOD MORNING MARGY, AND ANYONE ELSE THAT COMES ON
HEY MOVIN JIM -
Don't know when you will see our posts today, maybe not until well into the split and fresh thread:
Hope you feel better fast..
It's always nice to see your "early morning greetings" .
Have you been checking out the Wood Duck Cam? Different nest, 13 eggs I think, and hatching, probably pretty soon.
xo
Margy, did not see meteors last night, but woke up this a.m. and decided to watch Mr. Sun wakeup:)
HEY MITS -
Good Early Morning to You and All Others...
See our kids in the nest?
Clouds ate up the meteors here, rained in middle of the night, I think if I had gotten up at 0430 like I was gonna do, I might have caught a few...There should still be some residual ones over the next few days anyway....
HAVE A GREAT DAY! XO
Wow, one took off while I was gabbin....
one just took off at the noon position, the other one ran over and I thought she would take off, but didn't
you too:)
the other one is thinking about it
..And Take Off from the opposite side of the nest....Beautiful....
off goes the other one....have a good day at work, Margy
ANd then there were none...morning all:)
Yay! Floralgirl! Hope it's cooled off some for you too, feels pretty nice here this morning.!
Happy Flower Day to you...and all.
xo
Hope you saw the chicklets this morning, Megan...a good send-off...
Yep, 66° here right now, I'm going out to cut flowers, gonna be a hot one today:( hope the sun stays behind the clouds for a while. LAter- have a nice morning!
some darn nice takeoffs this a.m.,morning Megan....see the blog has our own M&M ladies, Megan and Margy
Loch Garten nest, parent has been out for awhile, two remaining chicks seem very restless...don't think they have had a meal for many hours now....tough situation there.
think I might go back and get a little more sleep, later
Double-E S and Double E Sissy:
Your Little Pocahontas returning today? Bet it seems like forever to you...
BTW, I got this e-mail after I sent Loraine the pic of eagle in KENT tree......
Hi Helen, It's nice to hear from you again. Yes I love seeing them in the tree too. They are both here every day, they don't always perch on this branch like you have here but they are in the area.. I hear them all the time and under my breath I'm telling them "GET BACK TO WORK!". Take care, and have a great weekend. Loraine :)
I saw that that beautiful visiting bird at Ferry Boat Finney's last night and tried to capture it in a photo, but it left too fast. Looks almost like a grackle with some yellow on it...or a variation of some kind of MAGPIE! Will have to study my overseas bird books to see if I can find a match.
Ta Ta For Now. Time to get ready for the salt mines.
Good, Safe, Healthy day wishes to all.
xo
Good morning everyone! Yes, Magpie, our baby girl is coming home today!! Now if my sister would come home. I have been without them both all week, had about enough of that.
Anyway, TGIF!! Hope everyone has a great day!
