Thanks Steve for the new thread.

Any hope on getting any of the cams up? Everything is down. Thanks for anything you can do.

carolinabeachmom said...

Doesn't look like a very good day for tiny watching. Just got home from school and couldn't wait to get on. Did he or did he not fledge> Anyone?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Thanks Steve for the new thread and please HELP, HELP, HELP!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Candy, we have no clue. The cam has been frozen for a while now.

carolinabeachmom said...

Hi Paula, Our cams are in a sad state of affairs, I guess. We had such high hopes for this season.

paula eagleholic said...

Thank you Steve!! RP is on!!

paula eagleholic said...

I believe tiny is still there at 6ish

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

LIVE FEED IS KIND OF UP!

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks SHARON. Thanks Steve for the new thread. Guess I'll go get myself a sandwich for lunch. BB

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Baby Littley is still there!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Thanks for all you do Steve. We sure do hope we can get a camera of some kind before Baby Littley fledges.

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks again SHARON AND PAULA for the heads up.

paula eagleholic said...

A glimpse is better than nothing!!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

not knowing is killing me, very nonproductive day for me at work.

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks for the reboot, John! We Love You!!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

omg!
i can live again!!

Mema Jo said...

Sometimes "patience" isn't around..

Thanks to ALL of you who made our day brightened up!

Mema Jo said...

BBL

Really getting some late lunch now

That is your cue Tiny - do your thing when I leave....

glo said...

Thanks for the reboot John . Sorry to hear your internet is messed up Steve . Glad you were able to get that new thread started.

I took Dexter down to walk at the Marina this morning and discovered road is closed to the docking areas, many of the park areas are all under water. Even trying to walk the jog trail is underwater and the Crest right now is scheduled for Sat although we have major weather in the forecast again tomorrow . They are now saying this years flooding has potentioal to be worse than the record floods of 93. So yep I know about the storms . Gone from Snow in the Midwest for winter to rain deluge for spring.

Indiana Nesting Eagles----Dave

wvgal_dana said...

Good Afternoon to all my feathered friends ( :

I'm caught up on comments.

Loved the pics ty all that was involved in taking and sharing them with us.

Enjoyed Larry's video of the Loons.

So glad we cam see Tiny now instead of guessing where he/she was.

Prayers still for Chrissy and Frank. Anyone get an email from Chrissy?

wvgal_dana said...

Daveis you basement a finished basement?

wvgal_dana said...

Glo was you living there is 93 when the bad storm hit?

wvgal_dana said...

Paula I have WE up in case the band there.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Baby Littley is preening now. Getting rid of the old stuff and making room for the new!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

COME ON BABY LITTLEY, U CAN DO THIS

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

OMG. He really wants to go. Nope, chickened out again.

Lolly said...

Good afternoon!!!!!! What! Tiny still here?!!!! I just knew when I was gone all morning he would fly the coop!!! He is doing wingersizes! GGGGGGGGGGooooooooo Tiny!! You can do it!! Soar like the grand eagle you are!!!!

Will bring Joseph and Jacob in here to see him when they get here. Maybe that threat will help!

Have not heard from Chrissy today. Did get two wonderful emails yesterday. I do love reading her emails and she sounded great. Supposed to see doctors today, I think, so I will inquire.

Go Tiny Go!! Go Tiny Go!! We believe in you!!

paula eagleholic said...

Wow Dave - how much water did you have in your basement. Sounds awful.

Mema Jo said...

FOOD I hope from the adult

Mema Jo said...

Adult flew out

Mema Jo said...

lol Lolly
Joseph & Jacob may do it!

I guess that

Tiny Baby Littley will go
when he goes

Mema Jo said...

I had an email from Chrissy today - she was expressing her concerns and prayers about SSG McCoy's passing.
I responded and inquired about how she was feeling & if Frank was doing better - no response yet. Lolly, I love Chrissy's emails also!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

We will fledge no eaglet before its time!

Mema Jo said...

WE
We still seem to be having problems with the mainland computer internet connection, although the provider says there is no problem. I'm going to leave SR off for the rest of the day so that all the available bandwidth is used for the WE nest. We are leaving soon and should be out there between 2 and 3.

Dr. Sharpe & team should be at WE between 2 and 3 PM! (CA TIME)
Around our dinner time - 5-6:00 PM

Mema Jo said...

I love that Sharon!!!!

We will fledge no eaglet before its time!

hedgie said...

I got an e-mail from Chrissy. Her blood work was okay--too many cough drops caused the elevated glucose. She had a chest x-ray and goes for breathing tests later in the week. Frank at home, doing much better but not allowed back to work yet.
Thanks for new thread and for cam, Steve & John!

paula eagleholic said...

WE banding - they should arrive between 5 and 6 our time

hedgie said...

Looks like Tiny is chowing down on a late lunch.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, Baby Littley is oblivious to her surroundings when eating. Parent sneaked in there on her and scared the dickens out of her.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks H-viller for Chrissy's update!
Puts our minds a little at ease knowing she is focusing on getting herself better!

wvgal_dana said...

If it is 6 I won't be here to see WE banding oh well....

Glad Chrissy and Frank are doing better. ( :

Mema Jo said...

LOL I bet she/he thought that
Pearl had her/him!

wvgal_dana said...

Parent just came into WE with food eaglet took it right from parent and goobled it right down. Other eaglet didn't have a chance.

wvgal_dana said...

OH NO Crow is after eaglet at WE

wvgal_dana said...

Dad with tag on wing just flew after crow. Now parent is in nest. Crow flew by nest and parent squawked.
This crow is not giving up. Before this is chased Wray (f) out of nest.

wvgal_dana said...

It just grabbed twice one of the eaglets with it claws.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

$*@&%!)^&%$?!!! Camera!

paula eagleholic said...

Those are raven attacks at the WE nest. Neokast up and working again.

You'll probably find lots of freezing on the non neokast link.

paula eagleholic said...

Tiny is enjoying that sushi snack.

She's never gonna fledge at this rate! :)

paula eagleholic said...

My 30 sec cam is still stuck...anyone else's stuck?

Mema Jo said...

My 30 sec still show Tiny under the cam even though the clock is running

wvgal_dana said...

You would think the 2 eagles would have them for a meal.
Wouldn't you think Paula?

paula eagleholic said...

They are quick, Dana. They did catch one last year :)

glo said...

Tiny is full now and quite content with life at Home...all is well.

movin said...

Paula, my 30 sec cam is frozen, I can see feeding eaglet on the live feed when it clears.

Boy, those ravens could do some damage afterall!! 01 has shown up now, but it sounds like a raven might be perched on the camera equipment.

Anyway, the ravens kept dive bombing the eaglets until they got so tired they could barely turn around, and then I believe they got in a couple of pecks on the younger one. They could probably kill the eaglets in that way, which answers some of the questions on the IWS blog recently.


C(°ï®¡°)D

Jim

wvgal_dana said...

Dr. Sharpie is going to have to check out those two eaglets. The one almost rolled over from one attack.

movin said...

Forgotten for the moment, but earlier, with no warning, Explorer decided it had encountered a problem and had to shut down!

It's been acting better since the crash a month ago, but I think I might be trying FireFox again soon.

C(°ï®¡°)D

Jim

wvgal_dana said...

The male Eagle just took off after the one raven on the cam.

hedgie said...

20 sec. cam still frozen but live feed is in and out--Tiny resting below cam.

movin said...

By the time Dr. Sharpe and the crew finish banding the eaglets today, they will have had a real, terror-filled day today!!

Probably not the best day for banding.

C(°ï®¡°)D

Jim

hedgie said...

Whoops! Meant 30 sec., of course!

Mema Jo said...

I agree with you Jim.
Not the best time to have Mom & Dad
leave that nest with unprotected babies.

Mema Jo said...

Oh Man H-viller
I thought you were 10 up on us! lol

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

That was a beautiful landing!

Mema Jo said...

Didn't actually see the landing
Guess the nestovers are being eaten.

What is Tiny doing? lol

Inspection I think

Mema Jo said...

Sharon --- ???

Did the eaglet bring his/her own lunch? I thought Tiny had eaten all
of his?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Fish was laying there in the nest when the other one arrived.

wvgal_dana said...

Sharon so it is just cleaning up leftovers?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Is that Pearl or Middy?

paula eagleholic said...

Think it was most of a fish, Dana.

hedgie said...

Pearl or Middy really working hard on nestovers. Pretty green and purple screens intermittantly!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Yeah, it was leftovers but it was almost a whole fish.

paula eagleholic said...

Don't know Sharon. I can't see the tail

Lolly said...

Heard from Chrissy. Same report that you received. Sounds like Frank is doing much better. Chrissy needs to stop smoking!!!

Head is hurting going to rest a second before J & J get here. LOL
They are spending the night and all day tomorrow. More fun!!

Like the suggestion that was on here a couple of days ago. Have the water balloons ready to be filled. It is a declaration of WAR!! (Yard need watering anyway!)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Live feed gone again!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Must have been doing a reset, it is back now.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

She has had lots of company this afternoon.

wvgal_dana said...

Grandma going to get wet....lol

movin said...

Everything, including AOL, is moving like it was wading in deep molasses on my puter now.

I'm going to shut down and restart everything....

Later, everyone.

C(°ï®¡°)D

Jim

wvgal_dana said...

Good Luck Jim

wvgal_dana said...

I heard men talking so I think Dr. Sharpie is at WE

wvgal_dana said...

Tiny is at the launch pad

glo said...

That bird is a riot geeesh

wvgal_dana said...

Maybe Tiny does want to stay in nest until Flag Day....wants to hold up the image that Spunky started lol

wvgal_dana said...

I guess I'm talking to myself....hum I've done that before ( : lol

Mema Jo said...

NZ Cam How about that Panda Nap!!

I was trying to find MITS on the Asia Trail
I have WE cam up/running
Hope I can catch the banding of
Miracle & Surprise........

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I was reading Dana but was also working. Sorry.

Mema Jo said...

WE UPDATE AS TO TIME OF ARRIVAL

QUOTE (Eagle Guy @ Jun 11 2008, 02:17 PM)
We are just leaving Two Harbors now. It is about a half hour drive and a 45 minute hike, so it will be closer to 3:30-4pm.

OK Take a break! That's 6:30 - 7 pm
our time here in the far east! LOL

glo said...

I think Pearl just came home for supper.

Mema Jo said...

I think so too, GLO! She never misses a good meal!

Mema Jo said...

I saw Tiny lighten his load
I hope he doesn't think he is on the
launch pad at 10

wvgal_dana said...

Well I must have been hearing things. Truly I did hear a man's voice. Only thing up is our nest (no sound) and WE (with sound).
I won't be here to see banding.
Will be leaving before that.

Mema Jo said...

Others have heard the voices, Dana
They are thinking it may be an IWS crew setting up and waiting for Dr Sharpe

wvgal_dana said...

later

glo said...

That is one impressive young eagle that just took off.

ceil said...

Great pictures Paula.

paula eagleholic said...

Those voices may be people on boats....sound really carries over the water. We used to see lots of boats going around that area last year

Lib just brought Tiny a fish!

Costume Lady said...

Ceil...you got WAXED!

paula eagleholic said...

Tiny is playing with the fish. Put her talons on it and hopped with it to the back of the nest.

Costume Lady said...

EXCUUUSE ME, Paula got waxed!

paula eagleholic said...

She must be hungry again! Now munching on it at the back of the nest.

ceil said...

Bummer I needed the wax Wanda.

Mema Jo said...

I was on the West End sight....
Try to reset as it was frozen on the
non-neocast

Mema Jo said...

It is refreshing every 5 sec but it takes a minute for the refresh to happen........ lol

Mema Jo said...

ACTION NOW AT WEST END

Mema Jo said...

W E Camera has been zoomed back
Good view of entire nest now

ceil said...

Here comes Dr. Sharpe

Mema Jo said...

I see Dr Sharpe approaching the nest WHoo Hoo!

floralgirl said...

Whoa- parent isn't real happy about Dr Sharpe's visit!

Mema Jo said...

One bird in the bag

Mema Jo said...

This is funny from the IWS Forum

one eaglet grabbed and bagged!

floralgirl said...

Darn it- cam is stuck for me- at 16:04:09-the point where one was put into a bag

Mema Jo said...

2nd chick has also been bagged

I think my WE cam is frozen right now

floralgirl said...

Empty nest now-

Mema Jo said...

Now I have the WE cam with the

MT NEST.......

Mema Jo said...

Megan - do yo have the neocast
program? You mentioned sound.

floralgirl said...

No, Dana mentioned sound earlier- I don't have NEocast- watching the other 5 sec. cam.

Costume Lady said...

I just tuned in to the WE banding and see nothing. I assume the babes are in custody. Are they going to show the banding?

Mema Jo said...


IWS FORUM PICS OF BOTH EAGLETS'
REMOVAL FROM THE W E NEST

floralgirl said...

Adult just arrived in nctc nest- now both-

paula eagleholic said...

Parent in our nest...and just saw a shadow..and another parent has arrived!

paula eagleholic said...

Lib was there, and Belle came in...she must be hungry

paula eagleholic said...

Off goes Lib...Belle is eating, Tiny in the middle peering off to the right

paula eagleholic said...

Wanda - they can't show the banding...the cam is stationary....but they may have someone else along to video and take pictures...in fact, I'm sure they do. Hopefully they will post it tomorrow!

Costume Lady said...

OK, Paula.

Mema Jo said...

Harpo got some short video clips
Go to the link I gave you before & just go to the page 60

paula eagleholic said...

Eaglet just landed in the nest!

paula eagleholic said...

Belle left!

paula eagleholic said...

Nothing like having your dinner stolen by your kid!

magpie said...

MEMA JO - thanks for the West End Site, just watched the flyover video, and looked at all the stills.
PAULA - your photos are fantastic.

Mema Jo said...

I see 2 in our nest
I will be honest with you and say
that I don't know who is who!

NatureNut said...

We have LIVE cam!!!

Someone on CHIL forum said a little more than 1/2 hour before chicks are returned to nest.If so, hope we can see that.

Costume Lady said...

Paula, did you get to meet Dr. Sharpe when you were in California?

ceil said...

I think my WE cam is froze. It says 16:37 Tried to refresh. It won't

Mema Jo said...

Ceil - mine is the same.
It will start again whenever
I don't think refresh key does anything...

ceil said...

Jo they must be back in the nest by now.

Mema Jo said...

I think the WE cam started to refresh itself again..........

ceil said...

It did.

NatureNut said...

My WE cam went the way of "webpage not avilable"-----
Reopened IWS & same thing!!! #$&%#*@*&SU*(

Mema Jo said...


This might get you to West End

NatureNut said...

YAY!! Got WE cam back!!

Mema Jo said...

Looks as though the 2 in our nest
are relaxing... At least one of them is. Sure was pleasant weather for them today.

ceil said...

Think I will call it a night. Have a good night everyone.

Mema Jo said...

Going to water some plants on the deck

BBL

NatureNut said...

Thx Jo, I got it w/another link I had in My Fav. Let the show begin!!!

magpie said...

Only see one falcon in Harrisburg, really wolfing down on a bird dinner.

magpie said...

A very large bird dinner. Hope it's not another falcon. Over near the nest box.

Mema Jo said...

Miracle & Surprise being placed back in the nest now

NatureNut said...

COOL!!!!!

Mema Jo said...

Now we wait for the adults to return to the nest. Let's just hope that the Ravens do NOT return today!

Mema Jo said...

Page 69 on IWS Forum for still pics of the eaglets return to the nest.

magpie said...

three birds our nest, the children.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I see food a'plenty in our nest tonight.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Oh yeah, and eaglets a'plenty!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Or should that be "o'plenty"?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Baby Littley right at the cam again.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I need her to keep that white spot on the top of her head for a while.

magpie said...

One just took off...it wasn't Tiny.

magpie said...

And back again, that was fast!

Mema Jo said...

Here I am wrapped up with IWS &
all 3 of OURS are in the nest!!!

What a home coming! Hungry Birds!!

Mema Jo said...

Must be Pearl near the cam cause looks as though she is eating!!

Are the other 2 going to rush her??
lol

magpie said...

mema - did you see that take-off?

Mema Jo said...

I think SPIDEY is starting to do the WEB.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

All 3 were there, one was eating. One took off, came right back and tried to steal the food. I am going to say that was Pearl. That is Baby Littley below the camera. See the white spot on her head?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I am going to venture to say that is Pearl that just stretched out in the middle of the nest because there is no white left in her tail.

Mema Jo said...

If Sharon's "white spot" id's Tiny
then it's him under the cam....

I got up to answer phone Magpie & missed the take off! argh!!!

Mema Jo said...

lol Sharon
I was typing & agreeing with you as you were explaining!

magpie said...

Amd I'm bouncing between the cams like you are...gonna take a peek at IWS. Still one lonely falcon at Harrisburg. it does not want to share that awful bird meal with the parent..

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mema Jo, "Eagle Buddies" think alike! :)

magpie said...

I don't have Neokast so only see all the stills and the little one video from IWS but the stills are great, Jo, thanks for passing posting those sites. Our two little buddies settling in for the night...sounds like a good idea. Wonder where the third one is?
Good Night, All. Prayers for peace, joy, serenity, and comfort for all. xo

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

And the same to you, Magpie!

paula eagleholic said...

Awww, 2 in the nest tonight. Nice that one of the sibs is keeping Tiny company

BTW - If we had a poll for fledge dates...I don't think anyone would have guesed Tiny's date correctly!

paula eagleholic said...

I see spidye, I see spidey

Mema Jo said...

I'll return after I watch my Hallmark movie.

paula eagleholic said...

Wanda - I didn't meet Dr Sharpe when I was in California last year...I didn't do a tour...I was offered one by a forum member...should have done it when I was there, but didn't feel I could accept at that time...so I just met forum members...and went hiking on Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa

MITS said...

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE Going to read this afternoon's thread and hit the sack...beautiful, but long day at the zoo, got home around 9:15, so was there almost 12 hours....

Costume Lady said...

Paula, that's too bad. Dr. Sharpe must be a fascinating man.

MITS said...

loved the pictures, Paula, thanks:)

MITS said...

and Wanda, Dr. Sharpe is easy on the eyes:):):), if you get my drift, ok got up on the posts....goodnight again

Costume Lady said...

Now that you brought it up, Helen...I was going to say "Dr. Sharpe is very sharp", but decided not to. I just eluded to the fact that he is quite an interesting man. I am happily married, but not BLIND! lol

paula eagleholic said...

Yup, no one minds pics of Dr Sharpe!

Have a good night, hitting the hay!

Costume Lady said...

GOOD NIGHT HELEN AND PAULA.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS

NatureNut said...

Back to watch news. Been reading email---we only have 400!!!!(Most have been read-just saved in new)

Good Night to those who are hitting the hay! ;>)

Mema Jo said...

Checked out the nest
Not sure if that is Tiny in the middle of the nest.. Must be dreaming of flying because I see that wing stretching!!

Good Night Everyone
Peace to you & yours
Pleasant dreams & restful sleep


I sure miss telling Suzanne Good Morning!

movin said...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good morning my eagle buddies. Is today going to be the day? Only Baby Littley and God knows!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

AND THE LIVE FEED JUST WENT DOWN!

magpie said...

Yup, my live feed just went down too, and off to work I go...

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, live feed is still down, still pic is still frozen. No way to see what is happening. AAARRGGHH!

floralgirl said...
