MEMA: Full report on my vegetable "garden" on the prior blog....
wish I really had produce like what's in this little crate...
HAVE FUN TODAY AT YOUR FAMILY GATHERING!

ANY NEWS ON PATRICK AND RYAN AND THE LITTLE GERMANY FAMILY ?

magpie said...

NATURENUT: I like your expression 'MOISTY MORNING" - that's exactly what it is...here too, clouds, cool, no rain yet.

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Jo ( : been awhile huh?

wvgal_dana said...

Dang gone I forgot Atlanta doesn't show the panda cam on weekends grrrr

MITS said...

I haven't gotten any bulletins from the AJC either

wvgal_dana said...

White boat at Finland no sea eagles there now

Mema Jo said...

Thanks for the new thread, Steve
Hope your Dr appointment had a good healing report on your knee!! We need you up and about!

Nothing from the news concerning our pregnant panda! Just that the BIG winning lotto ticket was sold in GA!

wvgal_dana said...

I sent an email around to all in Eaglet group. Hope you all send me back your opinions or what you know about the question.

Mema Jo said...

Still doing some of my many emails...
Yes, Dana! It has been awhile - you know we miss you. Have you found any jacuzzi yet for rehab?

SGT Ryan is SSG Ryan as of 9/1! Go ahead and congratulate him on your next card!
SGT Patrick goes up in Oct for his review! Very proud of my guys!
Germany gals are doing well - still has her Aunt visiting until 31st. Samantha is doing very well in school - 1st grade - and Elizabeth is growing and growing!

wvgal_dana said...

It was an indoor pool close by that I was looking for Jo. Like I said McCormick bldg by City Hosp. would have been great. But they put the charge in with all the exercising equipment which I can't use. Won't reduce just for pool even with dr's perscription.

wvgal_dana said...

Contgraulations on your guys Jo. I know you are a proud (which you should be) grandmother.

MITS said...

Dana, I have not heard of the term LPN since the 80's, they have been called something else, same job, different title as far as I know, left my volunteer job on the cardiac floor of Suburban when we bought the condo

magpie said...

DANA: That lucky little boat has been there all night! Whoever is on it saw the Sea Eagles at first light !

Bummer about McCormick Center...maybe we can get a group of us "oldsters" (sorry, but we're a special old breed) - could get together and approach them again! It is three blocks from me, and I love to swim...they have tethers you can swim and swim and not go anywhere!

How about the Woods Resort ????

Let's keep some ideas rolling on this one....

xoxoxo

magpie said...

MEMA: GREAT news, thanks! How exciting... can you send us any pictures of Samantha and Elizabeth, or have I missed something somewhere?

HEY - What exactly does SSG stand for? I told him I thought it was Staff Sergeant, or SPECIAL SERGEANT IN HIS CASE !!

xoxox Love you Guys !

magpie said...

One proud Osprey at Wild Watch, and the Burrowing Owls are having a Saturday morning Party !

magpie said...

Sailboats at Finney Water Nest, Mema !

They are calling your name !!!

PAULA: I really wanted to make Brownies for you....just didn't think I could cook two things in one day...! Maybe next time, or "nest time" for the October Open House, to go with the Cheese Cakes !

xo

Mema Jo said...

Margie - it is Staff Sergeant
A little more pay and a lot more responsibility!

Mema Jo said...

I just saw the sailboat... The other boat was there last night - I can't determine the size of it up against the other island.......

paula eagleholic said...

Magpie - yum for the brownies too!

magpie said...

Just being in the military is a HUGE responsibility, MEMA - God Bless them All ! I am glad to hear a little more pay is part of the package!

That boat looks like a pretty good size, probably has cabins in a lower deck somewhere, maybe we will see it if sets sail today.

Cranberry Orange muffins from a box mix just out of the oven! Not bad....

I have a great Oatmeal Raisin cookie recipe with extra spices thrown it, will have to pass that one along one of these days.

xo

Mema Jo said...

Ferry boat just passed through the island!

paula eagleholic said...

They have the wrong video on here...it shows Delta Dawn falling out of the nest...but here's the article about Dan's release...

I'll find the release pic next...

Delta Dan article

paula eagleholic said...

magpie said...

That's precious, Paula, thank you guys so much for posting all this stuff for us...you are TRUE EDUCATORS for all us Happy and Eager students...

need a recording of that to go with my Eagle Picture....

magpie said...

Turkeys in the PA Woods..

have not seen many racoons at night-time anymore, guess they have FLEDGED too.

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks for the reminder, Magpie...gotta check out Deb's video link and pics!

paula eagleholic said...

Deb - I have seen those Missouri videos....he did a nice job...webcam there would be great! Nice pics, too!

Mema Jo said...

Those boats must go through every half hour........Another one just went by! Would love to know the names of those islands......

paula eagleholic said...

Ok, gotta grab some breakfast...then off to the junkyard....Small part broken on Son's car that I didn't have mechanic fix yesterday.

Margy - the car did get fixed yesterday!

magpie said...

Oh, Glory Be, Paula...what a relief, and better son travels on Sunday, misses more traffic that way, but one less day with you...

GREAT UPDATE ON MASON'S JOURNAL:
YESTERDAY WAS SYLVIA (HIS MOTHER'S BIRTHDAY) AND THE WHOLE FAMILY GOT SCORPION TATTOOS !

wvgal_dana said...

Paula did you see the SPLISH SPLASH video on the Hancock Forum page 255 it is really cute

magpie said...

MEMA - I googled some things but some of it is in Finnish, uh, not my second language...I think someone will jump on here with the answers, but we can keep looking...

paula eagleholic said...

No Dana, haven't seen that one yet...heard about it tho...

I think that was taken from the estuary cam, which is supposed to be back online....I tried that cam this morning but couldn't get on...

Really got get moving! BBL!

Mema Jo said...

I need to finish some picnic food that I am requested to bring.....

BBL

wvgal_dana said...

Just go to Paula's blue link Hancock Forum at time of 11:29 AM this page. Go to page 255 and click on the RED SPLISH SPLASH it is so cute and funny.

movin said...

GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE.

hOPE you are having an enjoyable Labor Day Weekend so far.

Still no sighting of Finney's chick by me. How about you?? Can we declare her "done migrated?"

If you check the GPS of Nethy and Deshar, they appear to be moving a little, but only within England yet.

iT'S still pretty overcast here in So Cal, but it's gotten to 75° already ... will be well over 80° before the day is done.

How's everything in your neck of the woods??



C(°ï®¡°)D

Jim

magpie said...

HI JIM - I HAVE BEEN WATCHING SINCE LATE LAST NIGHT AND ALSO THIS MORNING, NOT A CHICK AT FINNEY'S NEST TO BE SEEN, AND NO OTHER BIRDS EITHER.

GOOD MORNING TO YOU, GOOD AFTERNOON FROM US !

XO

magpie said...

MEMA: You're a Doll...will you be my Grandmother ???

I never knew mine, as the last of 8 - they had all passed away before I was born...

xo Enjoy yourself this afternoon !
I know everyone else will enjoy you !

xoxox

movin said...

Good article and video of Delta Dan, Paula. Did you find a clip of his release yesterday though??

As you were, Paula. I did a google and came up with this video....

ALERT BIRD AT FINNEY WATER

wvgal_dana said...

ALERT BIRD AT FINNEY WATER

wvgal_dana said...

I'm sure it is one of the sea eagles

ALERT BIRD AT FINNEY WATER

wvgal_dana said...

Oh Mr or Mrs Sea Eagle your alone and I think I am too on here ( :

wvgal_dana said...

BOTH ARE THERE NOW

wvgal_dana said...

One is flying out of nest now

wvgal_dana said...

NOW I'VE GOT 3 BIRDS ON THE NEST AT FINNEY ON THE WATER

magpie said...

They might be the Hooded Crows...
have seen three of them there, but only two Sea Eagles....they are a fine looking bird too !

Costume Lady said...

I see a small boat is still at the waters edge in Finny on Water. Is that the one you have been looking at Margy?

wvgal_dana said...

Wanda that is the boat that has been there all day. It is a rather large boat. At one time it was not as far towards land. You could see it better then.

paula eagleholic said...

Back already...junkyard was closed, guess they don't do much business this weekend! Checked the other local ones, they are all closed up for the weekend...glad it can wait!

At least I found something good for dinner while I was out and about...having everyone over for bbq tonight, found some nice looking ribs, yum.

wvgal_dana said...

Going to go play a game for awhile.

MITS said...

off to the beach...later:)

magpie said...

** HEY BOBBI **

It's still your birthday, lots of hours left to Celebrate...some of your greetings are on "Thursday" - we had no "Friday" this week!

HOPE EVERYONE TREATS YOU LIKE ROYALTY TODAY....HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!

XOXOXO Magpie, still in Wild and Wonderful West Virginia...

magpie said...

Maybe MITS got the alert that the dolphins were about to swim by !

LOL

Off to the mailbox.
TTFN
Good Day to All.

Mountaineers play today....

HEDGIE: Did you see I found Hydrox Cookies! Yummy ! They ARE the best....

xoxo

Costume Lady said...

I do remember Hydrox cookies. I think they were just as good as Oreos and a lot cheaper. I have been wondering what Charlies Chips are; potatoes or cookies?

paula eagleholic said...

Found some interesting info on the Finney over the water nest area (ie natureit.net nest). It is a shallow area of the Baltic Sea, marked by many small islands.

You can read more about it from the link below....and click on the "nature" link on the left...it lists the plant and animal species....interesting tho, doesn't mention osprey but does the white tailed eagle

Archipelago National Park

wvgal_dana said...

You can see the light shining from the boat that is achored at the island. On Finney on the water nest.

magpie said...

I think they are cookies, WANDA, Charlie's Chips. You might to ask WANDA again, or MEMA or JIM, I think they were all familiar with them. The rest of us are too young! OUCH! I'll PAY FOR THAT ONE ! (Hope they know I get senior discounts at some restaurants too !!)


PAULA: You are TOO GOOD TO US finding our answers.


Yep - the boaters are spending the night again! Maybe it is a honeymoon cruise?

Bath time, then nap time, then work time!

Good Rest of the Day to all.
PAULA: My mouth is watering at the mention of home-grilled ribs !
Bet the dogs will be salivating too !

xoxo Take Care, and Big Prayers.

Costume Lady said...

Home is the best place to eat ribs. There is no way to eat ribs without making a mess of yourself and everyone around you! Oh, sooo good! You go Paula!

Costume Lady said...

Margy, hope you have a quiet night....or maybe a busy night will go faster???

paula eagleholic said...

LOL Wanda...will have the napkin holder out for sure!

Costume Lady said...

Paula, a napkin won't do for me, I need paper towels. Lots of them!

paula eagleholic said...

You're right, Wanda. Maybe I should get out the washcloths, LOL

NatureNut said...

Busy here at the Park!
Gotta get closed out & leave!!!
BBL

Costume Lady said...

Paula, some finger bowls would be nice too. Enjoy your cook-out. Gotta get dressed...going to a friends cook-out (hope they don't have ribs!)LOL

Costume Lady said...

Enjoy the rest of the weekend, Loretta.

magpie said...

All tubbed and scrubbed now, just a little computer fun before the Panda Nap, going in at midnight (I hope NOT BEFORE THEN!) -
WANDA: This is why I sometimes keep such goofy hours...stay up late and get up early my days off so I can sleep before going in.

Slow as Roast is the way I like it at work: some like it rockin'. What I like, is an old abandoned building fire with no harm done, but training for the FireFighters (and the dispatchers) - a medical emergency that can be treated at the scene with no transport, no one has to leave their homes, and some Bites out of Crime by the officers with some friendly miscreants, no pursuits, fights, DUI wrecks...I can find something to do to while away the time...as can the others.
When I eat anything, I have a double paper towel with a little hot water on it, I am THAT BIG of a SLOB. Should just get out a BIB. Remember in the old days when parents would order Lobster at a fancy DC Restaurant, they wore bibs and we ALL had finger bowls.
Well, I hate to leave the fun, gonna check out the Archipelago site, DEB's video once more, and hit the Pillows!
Good Day to All. NATURE NUT: It's almost FRIDAY for you.

MEGAN: Hope you had good day at Market ! Miss you, little flower lady...

WAKE UP MASON...This ole' planet needs you back !

xo

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Hey Eagle Buds!! Me and Mattie have had a day all to ourselves at the lake today. It has been great, went down to the beach, went swimming, straightened up the camp. She is a great camping buddy!!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

We lost our ballgame last night but it was a great game. We were 2 points behind, on the 1 yard line, 30 seconds left in the game, and tried a quarterback sneak. Our quarterback was not sneaky enough though. We lost but it was really a fun game. Me and Tom bickered back and forth (good naturedly) for the whole game. I love a good close competitive game.

MITS said...

ATLANTA PANDA CAM IS BACK ON, LUN'S WATER BROKE AT 1:25P.M......BIRTH CAN BE ANYTIME

MITS said...

Lun Lun's water broke today at 1:25 p.m. Birth could occur at anytime between now and the next 48 hours. You may also view live streaming video of Lun Lun at one of the following websites:

hedgie said...

Good afternoon!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BOBBI!!!!!
Loretta, before I forget again, thanks for nice pics, and I really like the hedgie!!
Mits, we still have an LPN school here in Mtsbg.
Wanda, Charles hips are potato chips...the only kind we ate as kids...a tan w/ brown delivery truck went door to door in the DC area back then...think they are out of PA. Cracker Barrell sells them...still in big tin cans! Getting some next time I go and see if they are still as yummy!
Still haven't gotten any Hydrox...hopefully they will be on Food Lion shelf next week!
Still catching up on todays blogs.
Got sound okay on TV now!!!
Paula, very interesting page about the Archipelago! TY.
Hope everyone enjoys their picnics/get-togethers today!
Jo, know you are proud of your newest Staff Sgt.!!

MITS said...

Sissy...don't have your e-mail...hope you are watching

hedgie said...

Go Lun Lun!!!!!

hedgie said...

Thanks for heads up, Helen!!!

MITS said...

breathe!!!!!!!!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Got it Mits, thanks so much. My images are a little slower here but I can still get it. She is laying like a little kid with her arm over her face.

MITS said...

I was shocked, just was looking to see if there were any updates, even though it was the weekend, and there she was:)

hedgie said...

Can't get anything but black on cams!! It is just now 5 so guess they are shutting it down for the night....awwwww...pooh!

MITS said...

mine is still on..

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Mits!!

paula eagleholic said...

Mines on too, Hedgie!

MITS said...

Paula, you can have a panda cub watch BBQ

MITS said...

I'm also watching that menacing Hurricane Gustav...just got a bulletin it is a Cat 5

MITS said...

Dolphins have been around alot today:)

hedgie said...

Still no luck!! Argh!

paula eagleholic said...

Checking on Lun, nothing yet poor baby

BBL, gotta get some grilling done!

MITS said...

Lynn, even my blue url is not working now, because of the 5 minute time out, but cam is still going and Lun is still resting

hedgie said...

Perfect weekend for panda labor!!

NatureNut said...

I'm Home from the Park Zoo!
What wonderful Atlanta news!!!!
On old 'puter--new one is getting a free MS scan for bad bugs, but NOW they tell me it could take hours!!!
Gotta get Atlanta on this one if it's still up!

MITS said...

its still up, I'm assuming they will keep it up til the arrival...at least I hope so

MITS said...

Lynn, are you on the panda cub cam page....?

MITS said...

if only they had sound....you would hear that little cub, before you saw it

NatureNut said...

Rats, Atlanta cam is black on this 'puter. Told me I needed Windows Media Player 11, so downloaded & still black. Duh.
Other 'puter not done scanning.
Helen, you will be our eyes!!!

MITS said...

mine went black too, but I hit my refresh button and it cam back on

paula eagleholic said...

Showing another panda at Atlanta??

paula eagleholic said...

Or is that still Lun?

MITS said...

that is LUN's den

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Mits...looked like she wanted out...

paula eagleholic said...

BBL

MITS said...

and she is on her head....epidural please

hedgie said...

Yes, Mits. Also tried the links through the other sites. It connects and says it's playing, but stays black...wonder if there's too much traffic??

MITS said...

have you tried just double click on black screen or refreshing, just sent you a WMP that Sharon had giving me, maybe that will work

hedgie said...

I even went in and re-set Windows Media Player as default--it already was--and still no luck.

hedgie said...

Have also rebooted 'puter.

MITS said...

did you get my e-mail I sent to you?

MITS said...

have you tried some of the other sites that they have on their page, below the cam?

wvgal_dana said...

I'm watching but I wished it had sound also.

hedgie said...

Thank you, dear Mits...that works!!!!!

wvgal_dana said...

Cam moving in closer

hedgie said...

Are they going to make her drop it on the bare floor again?? No bedding????

MITS said...

well that was up to her to bring stuff into her den....I'm guessing she likes a bare floor

wvgal_dana said...

full screen is nice
it goes back to small when times up
just click ok and it goes again

wvgal_dana said...

scratching now

MITS said...

all you WVA fans will be happy to know Michigan just lost to Utah 25 to 23

wvgal_dana said...

WV won their game also

hedgie said...

Guess it's a good feeling for WV fans that they beat MI, considering the coach snafu! I don't follow it much...I pay more attention to VA, MD and DC college ball! Sorry 'eers....guess it's a non-native thing!

hedgie said...

Okay, Helen...thought they were trying to prevent a lost butterstick!! Lun is going to do her own thing, huh? Most all animals provide some type of nesting material!!!!

MITS said...

well MD beat DEL, don't know who WVA was playing

wvgal_dana said...

WV played Villanova 48 to 21

MITS said...

yes, Lynn it is puzzling to me, why there is not something nice and soft for her...and this whole water breaking thing is new to me....how can they tell the difference from just plain urinating,,,guess it come out in a gush.

wvgal_dana said...

Somone is at the gate with a light looking at Lun Lun

wvgal_dana said...

Now she has moved to other side of den where the other gate is. She is looking through it.

wvgal_dana said...

Mits do you know why they didn't do the artifical on Mei?

MITS said...

ok easy win for them

hedgie said...

There was most likely some blood in the amniotic fluid.

MITS said...

Mei was artificially inseminated on March 18th two times, they are thinking she just miscarried this time, but will never know for sure, so they are calling it miscarriage/false pregnancy

hedgie said...

So this is a natural fertilization, huh? Good for them!!!

MITS said...

ok we are off to dinner...bbl

hedgie said...

Too bad everyone isn't here to watch!!!

wvgal_dana said...

Lun Lun was artificially with Y's semen

MITS said...

I talked to Sharon, and Thelma is with her, and sissy knows, but lap-top isn't quite as fast at the lake, but they know and sure they are checking in...believe Sharon saw the actual birth last time.

wvgal_dana said...

Same father that was used and out came Mei Lan

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Mits I did forget they did do that. Then thought she had a miscarriage.

wvgal_dana said...

Ok fine don't give me any pain meds Lun Lun says. I'll just bite the heck out of this here thing!!!

wvgal_dana said...

Wonder if Sharon seen Lun Lun act like this before?

hedgie said...

Were those people feet on the other side of the bars? Dana, did you see it?

wvgal_dana said...

Yes Lynn they were on the other side. They used a flashlight putting the beam down on Lun Lun.

NatureNut said...

Wow, back on reg. 'puter & have Lun cam up. Don't know if she's comfy or not--oops they just changed the view. She had been laying on side, now she's almost on her head!

wvgal_dana said...

I guess now that I think about it. They were probably looking to see if the cub was coming out. Or maybe if Lun Lun was dialiting more or whatever Lynn.

hedgie said...

Love the cute way they try to sleep on their heads!!!

Anne-Marie said...

Hi everyone. Does anyone remember the name of the hotel where we at dinner last October at the "Momsters Fling" I am looking for a motel/hotel.

Mema Jo said...

Exciting evening going on
Turned Atlanta Panda cam on as soon as I saw the emails... Thanks Mits for getting the word out on the Momsters' site!
Really great that they turned the cam on for the event!

Mema Jo said...

Hi Anne Marie - I'll email you the site.......

NatureNut said...

Looks like they're giving Lun some tidbits of food thru the jail cell door. Then she takes it to other end & chews.

Mema Jo said...

36 hrs labor would take us up to 1:30 am Monday -- am I calculating correctly?

Mema Jo said...

This is worst then waiting for an egg to hatch - At least we can see the crack in the egg!!! lol

Mema Jo said...

YIKES THE CUB IS HERE!

NatureNut said...

IT'S OUT!!!!

Mema Jo said...

LUN LUN HAS THE CUB IN HER ARMS

LICKING AND LICKING AWAY

LIFE IS SOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!

Costume Lady said...

HELP!!Where is it???

paula eagleholic said...

Wow, I was just gonna ask!!

paula eagleholic said...

Just walked downstairs and saw her licking

paula eagleholic said...

Did they black the camera out? Or did you see it being born?

Mema Jo said...

Sharon also saw it born - Loretta & I were watching and just all of a sudden there was a cub! Talk about easy labor!
The little cub was squirming all around the place and LunLun was looking at the cub - she took her paw
and like touched the cub - then finally picked it up (I think) with her mouth - her back was towards cam-but then she had it in her paws up against her and was just licking away!

NatureNut said...

Camera was on, but I didn't see it shoot out. Saw it laying on the "bench" & then she went & picked it up!

paula eagleholic said...

You could just see it!

Now she has turned her back to the cam

NatureNut said...

Every now & then you can see it's back feet & tail.

hedgie said...

10:10 was the official time...and I missed it!

paula eagleholic said...

Cool, glad you were able to see as much as tht!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Oh wow!! Did anybody see the actual birth, cause I was looking, saw something flesh-colored at her right hand and then she backs up and the little squirmer was doing just that.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Called Sis to inform her of the birth and she is flipping out cause she can't see it! :)

Lun turned right around and said, "okay, private time now!"

hedgie said...

Give me privacy while I bond with this baby!!!

NatureNut said...

I wasn't watching 100%, but when I did look, that's when I saw it trying to crawl on the bench. I bet they'll show video. Lun may have been just sitting or lying there when it came out.
I took photos of the screen when she was licking it. If I'm lucky, might see a foot or tail!

Mema Jo said...

By now I think there are NOT twins.

Mema Jo said...

Sharon I think we saw the same thing
A NAKED BABY PANDA!! lol

Isn't it wonderful!

What are we going to call it, Sharon!

You did ButaButa
I think Suzanne did Squiggles

Do you think this will be Squirmy from what we saw!

paula eagleholic said...

OK, maybe we'll get another peek now, got a glimps!

Mema Jo said...

The cub will be in her arms continuously from what I remember for some time. Lun Lun will not leave for quite some time (days) to get food or drink.

Well I can sleep tonight!

WHOO HOO A NEW CUB

paula eagleholic said...

LOL Glimpse

Mema Jo said...

Remember how that camerman used to swing us all around that den.

I wonder if a night light will go on soon - they will probably keep the lights on just to check on them.

paula eagleholic said...

I don't know how quickly a twin is delivered? Does anyone?

NatureNut said...

Boy, she's not gonna let anyone see it now.

MITS said...

WHAT WONDERFUL NEWS.....CONGRATS ATLANTA......:)

MITS said...

IT COULD BE ANYTIME FOR A SECOND CUB TO BE BORN...when was this one born about 30 minutes ago?

Mema Jo said...

OK That is Picture Perfect
Don't move the cam!

Lun Lun always did that rocking and rolling!

You did really good Lun Lun!
