deb said...

Darn, I missed them again!! I thought about coming and checking awhile ago, I should have listened to myself.

wvgal_dana said...

That was a nice closure for the evening ( :

wvgal_dana said...

Going to watch some tv

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, I sent the evening visit out from Sissy's computer but hers does different than mine. I couldn't get it to open when I checked just now.

Mema Jo said...

Sharon - I had captured 2 photos that I also sent out through Momsters. I was able to open the one sent under Bev's name.. It was
an 8:45pm one. Mine were at 7:51 & 7:55. I cannot see the eagle on the
8:45 pic. I may be blind!!!!
You are the eagle eye!!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mema Jo, I can't even see the pic so don't have a clue! There were 2 eagles there when I saved the pic.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, I just pulled it up and it was 8:53, so it must have just sent the link to the popup cam and not the actual picture. I sent it at 8:10 so it is definitely not the picture.

Mema Jo said...

I took mine off the still cam

ANYHOO! Was sure great to see them & I am glad you saw them.

Does Andrew have your car this evening? You may just lessen up on your chauffeur duties!

ceil said...

Good night everyone. Pleasant dreams.

T-Bird said...

In the middle-I wonder how long Belle or Liberty has been there?

T-Bird said...

Must not have slept in the nest 'cause did not wait for the sunrise.? That is didn't wait to leave.
I don't know it makes sense to me. LOL When will they start sleeping in the nest again?

T-Bird said...
