Good Eagle Morning Everyone!
No eagles spotted yet here at Park & my osprey buddy that sits in a nearby tree hasn't been around lately, but we have plenty of hummers, goldfinches & squirrels!!
LAST evening news----A Ranger found a little bear cub that had been left behind in the forest fire!---his mother was no where to be found!! His paws were burned & the Ranger said he was all 'teeth' when he picked him up!---ho!---They are treating his burns (which are severe on the bottom of his paws)---Don't want him to get attached to them---so he is sedated when they pick him up---No contact when awake!----prayers for 'LITTLE SMOKEY' (they named him)!!----Such a tiny little bear attacking every one!---ho!--Handsome little cub!
MORNIN' NATURENUT!----I have several birds at my feeders too!---This is my first real year with hummers---They are like magic--aren't they?----I have several animals--(I live on the edge of woods)-----SQUIRRELS!!---I bet when I die one will be in the casket before I am!!---ho!----Don't you love all these feeders that say---'squirrel proof'!!!!
INDIANA DAVE!!----We all MISS SUZANNE!!!----maybe some day she will be able to join us again!!!
TAKE CARE!!
Oh yeah, Norma. That is the truth about the squirrels. I have come to the conclusion there is no such thing as squirrel proof. That is like kid proof, just wishful thinking.
SISSY---I read that if you put red pepper in your bird feed---it won't hurt the birds---but squirrels wouldn't touch the feed!----(1 child was crying--I was hurting the squirrels)---ho!---1st 2 days ok---3rd day the squirrels seem to LOVE the hot pepper!!---ho!
Hi Ladies and Gentleman..just hopping on to say Good Morning, and have a Great Day - Grandson and I are going to take a train (Amtrak) from Martinsburg to Harpers Ferry and Yak it Up with another Grandma for a few hours...going to be a busy day, so I'll catch up with everyone later on..
Love to All....xoxo

JO---6 BURROWING OWLS (count them) are waiting to greet you this am!!!!---
August 18
Every day behind-the-scenes at the panda building has been identical to the last. Lun Lun continues to spend most of her time sound asleep in the dens. She tends to get up about two to three times to eat and/or drink in a 24-hour period. We are keeping a close eye on her while she gets the rest she needs. Yang Yang and Mei Lan are also doing great. We put together a large plastic toy car over the weekend for them to enjoy. Yang Yang was standing completely on top of the car, to retrieve some bananas we placed on the top of it yesterday. Mei Lan has been eating bamboo very well in the past week, and she has even put on a couple of pounds, which Is good because she is feeding her growing body. Last night she weighed 52.8 kilos, which converts to about 116 pounds. She is getting to be a big girl! Today is her turn to check out the toy car. So for those of you tuned in to PandaCam … enjoy!

Wake up Mason
Hope your train comes soon, Margie!
Technical question:
Besides the beautiful frame and the new label, how does the "Pop-up" cam differ from the old 30 sec. cam we had??
C(°ï®¡°)D
Jim
Well, Jim, the benefit I see is it is more easily maneuverable on the screen.
We still have the 30 second cam, this one just takes up less space when it is displayed, and it stays up for some people
I was just noting that it's pretty overcast still in So Cal, and it's still only 70°, but it's slated to climb above the 80° mark later today.
C(°ï®¡°)D
Jim
WILD WATCH OSPREY CAM....MT, guess they fledged....
Thanks, Sharon, Mits, but I don't see the difference on mine...
I can't move it all over the screen like I can the one on Frodocam for example, and I don't see the old 30 sec cam, Mits.
Anyway, it's a beautiful update. Maybe there's more functional difference coming.
C(°ï®¡°)D
Jim
Mine moves all over the place, Jim....just sent you link to 30 second cam
The hoddies have taken over the finney on water nest
Re: Pop Up Cam--I've noticed that once it's up, it will minimize to your bottom deskbar when you go to another page. Therefore it's always available wherever you are someplace else on NCTC. Before, I had to click about 3 times on the Back arrow to get back to home page & still cam.Of course you could open an xtra IE window to keep access to more than one page.
You may not believe me----PLUMBERS were back----now need lunch!
Whoa Norma! Can't keep em away, eh? :):)
Mits, are you using Explorer? Because it doesn't move around at all in FireFox.
I'll try the minimize thing, NatureNut. Thanks.
C(°ï®¡°)D
Jim
Well, I've been having troubles with either the computer or software this morning.
I should shut it down and restart; and I've got to take care of other business.
Talk to you all later.
C(°ï®¡°)D
Jim
Feather fix - 3 osprey at CT
yes, Jim, I am.
Good evening ya'll!! Anything exciting happen today?
well, Sissy, hubby and I have been together under the same roof for 4 days, which is such a rarity, and have not killed each other:):):)
Mits, I totally understand what you mean. I love Tom with all my heart, but we just ain't meant to be together 24/7. Somebody has to die after a week.
You might not believe this. I just watched the highlights of Tai's first year. Lord, nothing should be that cute.
It is such a shame we aren't having a baby this year. I can't tell what I am looking at half the time on the SD cam.
Gotta go out for a while, Sher is blowing the horn. BBLW!
News Flash---NBC has pre Olympic show on now & they will be showing PANDAS in a couple minutes!!!!
ON NOW!
yippee, thanks for the headsup, Loretta
Good evening, friends!
Heard that the panda cub born on 08-08-08 in China was named Olympic Games--how imaginative!...oh, well...it's their panda!
No fun train trips here...had to drive gd to Winchester for follow-up w/ dental surgeon.
Jo...awfully hot day for you to be out and about, girlfriend!!
Was very short clip---2 US lady shooters from Olympics were dressed & allowed to go in outdoor area w/young male who was sitting on bench eating a treat. As each girl sat down, he patted their backs w/his paw!!! They had to leave as the food was almost done!
well how cute was that.....Lynn, that surprises me about the naming of the pandas....the Chinese are very superstitious, that is why there is a big naming ceremony at 100 days, because they think by then cub will survive
Eagle alert!!
EAGLE ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
STILL THERE, LOOKS LIKE LIB
Helen, there maybe was alot of pressure on them to name it because of the games or the alleged luck of that date!! Don't know.
Gotta go walk the dogs, they are driving me crazy, jumpin on lap, can't watch like that...BBL
Eagle still there!
Lib or Belle is competing with Spidey! I imagine that folks with bad cataracts can relate to how our cam looks at night!!
Both now!!! Yea!!
LOL....LYNN, no one pressures the Chinese Government
Now one...what a great frontal view.
what a nice visit.
both
poof
And all gone...boo!
Nest is really beginning to show a bowl/cup shape now, isn't it?
they are excellent nest maintenance eagles, Lynn
off to do some laundry...later
good evening everyone
How are all my fine eagle buds?
hey Thelma how goes it/
good, how bout you Helen?
fine and dandy, did you see the eagles in the nest tonight?
Well,pooh, missed the visit this evening. Oh well, tomorrow is another day. Did China really name a panda Olympic Games?
No I wasn't home.
I saw the eagle at 4 this morning though. The moon was so bright.
that what Lynn heard, so out of character for the Chinese government
Not to mention a pretty crazy name for a panda. When was it born? Sorry, I reckon I missed something here.
8/8/08, the dayt the games started
Oh, duh, I remember. Hence the name, huh. So, Mits, are you and hubby both still alive?
yes, Sissy, we are at our respective computers in different rooms:)
shutting down for the night...GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE....WAKE UP MASON
Good night, Mits and all my beautiful eagle friends. See you in the morning light.
Back from walking the dogs and watering....it's really getting dry out there...need someone to do a rain dance!
OH, I've been dancing- maybe I should stop...we really need rain here, too.
good night all-sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite-see ya in the morning light
It has been quite a busy day!
Peace to you & yours
Prayers for all being said!
Feels like rain tonight but sky sure doesn't look like it! Beautiful Moon.
(((hugs)))
Mason - Wake Up!
Goodnight all. Peace and blessings! Margy, hope you and grandson didn't decide to keep ridin' those rails!!! "Did they ever return? No, they never returned, and their fate is still unlearned..." LOL!!!! Hope you had a fun day!
I just finished watching the balance beam finals, Gold and Silver, Shawn was so happy as were her parents.
Night, everyone.
I don't think I have been on here all day...not sure. We've been busy at our house and Mom's and spent all afternoon looking in Winchester for cars. I dislike haveing to do that imensley! Looking for something with good gas mileage...hard to find at a good price.
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS FOR ALL...WAKE UP MASON
Hope Safe and Sound. Train from Martinsburg was 120 minutes late coming in from the West, and about 15 coming in from Washington to Harpers Ferry. When the conductor stepped out, he said "We'll be leaving shortly, after we check out this one motor...." Uh, not exactly encouraging, so we were about 15 mins late leaving Harpers Ferry. It was a fun trip, child is asleep - and I'm not going to be far behind. "Slam Wore Out..."
Won't be back on Wednesday until later in the day probably. Came home to feeble air conditioning...gonna have to wait on a repairmen I guess. Sigh....Grrrr....
Blessing to all, miss everyone..
xo
GOOD NIGHT, EVERYONE/GOOD MORNING TO THE EARLY BIRDER CREW.
JIM
P.S.
There's a REHAB Update for Buddy posted.
No Channel Island updates so far for this week.
Jim
Godd morning-eagle in the nest.
It just got there about 20 till 5 'cause I have been keeping a good eye since about 4:15 so I could tell if the eagle was sleeping in the nest.
As the sun is coming up just a little I can tell they are both there. I tried to send you all a picture but it went to my windows mail and I didn't have time to figure out what to do before getting ready for work. I've asked sharon to email the pic to you "fine folk" in eagle land. :)
looks like they're still working on the egg cup-I don't know about you all but I feel a sense of pride about the perfection Belle and Liberty appear to demand of themselves-the cup and the nest are looking good, huh
Think both are still in the nest- hard to tell-someone needs to squish that spider...
got to get ready for work-feels like rain here in Bedford-hope you all make a good day
oh yeah they are there
Ah- now you can see better- one still in nest.
Good Morning everyone...
Yes, Thelma, I think you put it perfectly...we feel a sense of pride in our eagle couple.
Lib is still there looking around and wondering what Belle wants him to do next. GONE NOW.
BELLE IS BACK!
Not sure now, I think it is Lib.
He's in the "bedroom" looking around for Belle, maybe. No, Lib, it's not time for HANKY PANKY!
Megan, if you are still on here...the flower in my Avatar is the double morning glory that I spoke of a while back. Photo is not representative of how pretty they really are.
Lib is gone now...I guess he got tired of waiting.
Hi Wanda- your flower is gorgeous...getting ready to go to the bus stop- first day of school here today:(((((((
He looked so majestic, standing there with the first rays of the sun shining on him, making him look as if her had a gold stripe on his body. EAGLE FIX IN PLACE FOR THE DAY. THANK YOU LIB AND BELLE!
Good morning Thelma, Megan and Wanda,Good to see the adults. Wanda I think it took us 2 years to find a new car. We live in the city street parking. Jim wanted a cadillac we got a Ford taurus and it was great travelling out west. Got good milage.Busy day today. Going on a boat trip to eat crabs. Have a great day.
OH, NO...Didn't realize it was that time of year already. Poor child. Hope this is a wonderful year for her!
BOAT TRIP TO EAT CRABS???
WAIT ON ME, CEIL!!!!!!!
Enjoy.
Summer is going to fast. Wanda gorgeous flowers. Have a good day. The day that Mason will wake up. Check your candles.
Speaking of a Cadillac; we saw a beautiful pearl white Escalade within our price range, but I would feel uncomfortable driving such a FINE car. I'm more the Jeep type.
Thanks for the MASON candle reminder, Ceil.
Guess it already was a Happy Eagle Day for the earlybirds!!! Have a Good One. Gonna try to get to work early, so I can get out & finish house for daughter's arrival. Plan to pick her up TH AM downtown at her hotel & go to ZOO!!Guess Helen will not be on Asia trail.
Good morning, my beautiful eagle friends. It is beautiful here in Bluefield, supposed to be in the low 80s today. Missed the eagles this morning but maybe I will see them in a bit.
WAKE UP MASON!!
Would someone put the link to the candles on here, I lost it!!??
