New thread.
We passed a milestone a couple of weeks ago that I didn't notice at the time. We are now at post 1017 for this blog. Thanks to all who help make the NCTC Eagle Cam Daily an active and vibrant world-wide community for folks interested in eagles and all other critters as well. A thousand posts about a nest in little Shepherdstown, WV is a lot!
We did some work yesterday to cut back trees that were interfering with the microwave signal from the nest. In addition, our guys are planning for the next season, which will happen sooner that we all think. We're working on some technological improvements to allow more reliable video. More on that later.

Hi Mits . I guess I should be watching the debate too. I just cant find the interest. Maybe its just being tired.
Well Im dressed and made up for a dinner date and here I sit.Mr Santa Barbara is in the area and wanted to go out.
oh, Mr SB in town.....have fun
I'm going to grow old and ugly waiting for that man to get it together. Oh well....

got to go...BBL
Anne Marie...you're probably gone, but....are you wearing your red dress????
I was wondering that also Hedgie! lol
Maybe we can find out tomorrow..
Mits, what's Ace of Cakes??
FOOD CHANNEL NETWORK...ACE OF CAKES....is a bakery in Baltimore, Maryland specializing in custom made cakes....they did a viking ship for a wedding cake, also a 50th anniversary cake, they put a digital photo frame in it with pics of the couple through the years, and they made 75 small replicas of the cake for their guest....very talented, eclectic group of people
Sounds pretty neat...and expensive!!
Calling it a night. Magpie is missing tonight! Her hours are probably catching up w/ her and she is getting a real panda nap!!
Sleep well everyone. Sweet dreams.
yes, Lynn....VERY EXSPENSIVE
Yummy Too!
Gosh, where does the time go?
Thx Jo for informative email. Appreciate all the work you and others do for the group.
Deb, the nest videos are great. Good to see those beautiful birds moving around again!
I am going to bed! You know I'm not an early riser.
Good Night Everyone
Peace to you & yours
Prayers for all
((hugs))
I lit a candle for Mason's recovery!
ps:Loretta - Natl Harbor looks like a place I would like to visit. The sculptures are awesome.

Margy may have been arrested for TRESPASSING...looking for that baby moon!
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS FOR ALL
WOO what a great evening.
Looking forward to open house, did they put the activities up yet?
I am off to bed. I just realized I leave in two weeks, not three!! I lost a whole week. I go to Pierre next weekend, get back on Monday and leave for Omaha on Thursday. All along thought I had a whole week and a half in between. Silly me. I will have to redo my schedule.
**GOOD NIGHT, BIRDERS**
aNY new or interesting animal cams lately??
I guess you read that Frodo & Frieda are likely nesting on a nearby building, which is higher than the Admiralty Towers...and newer. No Frodocam this year.

Jim
Jo, don't know if there's more art at the Harbor, but lots of it is still under construction, so who knows?
Good Night to all. Pleasant Feather Dreams!! ;>)
Anyone Awake?
Sea Eagles at Finney's
There were two, now just one...
Spidey has consumed the nest view now.
I just took off and went to Morgan County Thursday evening...heard a nice Barred Owl and saw a TON of deer.
xo Good Morning Everyone. I can tell you right now I am going to sleep in a little Friday...
* REMEMBER TO WEAR RED TODAY *
Good morning all my fine eagle friends!
I found a web page that has 5 panda cams going at one time, stays on all the time. It is http://home.comcast.net/~dreidel/pandacams/index.html. It saves me alot of work refreshing the cams at NZ and bringing them all up separately.
Good morning Sissy
GOOD MORNING SISSY AND ROBYN...
Is your Live Feed up this morning?
Morning Wanda, I'm not getting a cam today.
Good morning Robyn and Wanda. No, my live feed isn't up this morning. It was good while it lasted though, huh?
But I got pandas everywhere!!
Well, it was good to see our 2 Mountaineers LIVE for a little while. Hopefully, we will see them LIVE AND IN PERSON in a few weeks.
GOOD FRIDAY A.M. EVERYONE
Good morning Mits!! How the heck are ya this morning?
great, Sissy....cool panda site
Good morning Mits
It is ain't it. I think I like it. Of course, still have to put Lun and Luney on a bigger screen!! But I love all the cams being right there.
I tried the Panda Site and my screen froze...had to shut everything down and start over. I have that happen with other sites...don't know what happens.
I'll try again later.
Hiya, Robyn.....not good if it froze your puter, Wanda, might be a virus attached to it..:(
got to hit the showers...bbl
I haven't had any problem with that web site. I have a really good virus scanner on my computer.
panda chasing going on at NZ
Right Mits, panda rasslin'!!
I love to watch them. We watched that Growing Up Panda again yesterday, makes me hungry for em. What wonderful animals they are!!
panda out down in Memphis
Good morning:)
brrr... chilly morning here again, definitely feels like Fall. Still have at least one hummer this morning, it was out early hitting the flowers.
I have had a couple of hummers out here this morning. Bet they are freezing their little hummingbutts off!!

Debate was good last night...got home just in time to feed the dogs, grab a bite to eat and watch the debate.
Windy at Maine, sounds like someone banging nails!
Looks Windy at BWO also..
Lost my live feed but got it back, like the rest of you.
WANDA - my computer used to freeze up when I went to the Black Storks!
Great wonderful day here in WV...
Sorry I didn't tell you I was heading out last night....just had to get that Kid Fix in, and it was a GREAT ONE! Saw the Baby Moon and heard a Barred Owl...
Getting the morning cranked up...
xoxo Good Day to All !
(Gotta find my RED CLOTHES for the day....)
xo
I'd like to be at NCTC if or when those guards give our Momsters and Mr. Ceil a hard time at the GATE!
HO! As our FAVORITE NORMA WOULD SAY!
xoxo
...no offense intended...just trying to crack a funny! We are Blessed that we have security at these important sites! Don't want any danger to our Feathered Friends!
For some reason the guard always gives me a hard time, makes me feel...violated lol
Paula it was a GREAT debate *grin*
MORNIN' MAGPIE---DEB---PAULA & JO!!---------HEY!!!---another reason I wish I lived in SHEPHERDSTOWN----then I could be invited to visit NCTC with JO!!----
ROBYN---I think you have to have 'clout' to get in there!!---PAULA visits there often for pic taking---
Maybe Robyn needs your cane, Norma.
I think basically all the guards need in advance, is notice from Steve that someone is coming...
I learned that through naivete a few weeks ago...They are good people....
xox
I spent most of the day yesterday----HUNTING A PLUMBER---Forget my remarks about wanting to marry a computer geek!!----NOW I 'VANT TO MEET A PLUMBER!!---ho!---

Sissy, great new cam page! TY.
Loretta, hope you don't mind, but I saved your pics of National HArbor to print and send to my mom! Looks great...I know she'll be impressed.
My eldest turns 36 today... in an hour and a half! I feel old. I feel really nostalgic! Where does the time go? Taking lunch to her..she works both jobs today, and is "in charge" at the bank as the manager is on vacation, so can't even leave to eat.
Talk to all this evening!
PAULA----still sending your good thoughts----------
My Mom says "Thank You" for the hugs and prayers :)
Whoa, need some dramamine to watch Maine this morning !

BBIALW.
THANKS RED!!---It so nice to have someone understand what I am talking about!!----without explaining!
SISSY----You must quit that foolin' around with your husband---ho!----then you could see that little WHITE BUTT all cuddled up by herself!!----
ROFLMAO, Norma...
food time---later!
But Norma, he is fun to fool around in the basement with!! HO!!
Happy Lunchtime, Everyone!!Checking in for a moment here at work (farm office). It's chilly here----sunny outside. Guys are working on the furnace---pthey don't have it on yet but stinks like burning oil!
Lynn, fine for you to use pics!
Checked Atlanta---said Baby has belly girth of 11" !!!!
I'm not gonna fool around in this basement!!!! LOL
Howdy! beautiful day out there... met some of the eagle pal gang at NCTC for lunch- guards at the gate are always nice to me... gang was headed to the nest when I left- had to get to the bus stop. Oh and Norma is definitely fibbing, she is beautiful!!! later--
For your viewing pleasure...the Pelican Harbor cam is finally back up and running!
Nature - love your National Harbor pics...
LOL, don't see any Momsters in the nest...yet!
OK,OK,OK.....this is when I step up and yell....I am on my soap box! Being raised by a lady, I was taught to recognise a lady. Norma is the ultimate southern lady. With all the dignity and grace that goes with it. Take it from a California gal.
Jo and Hedgie, no I didnt wear my red dress! I would have been arested! I did wear a red top but I did behave myself. :)
*GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE*
Just to make sure we are on the same page here... My 30 sec. cam does not seem to be refreshing (as well as the clock being off);
BUT, surprise, surprise, my live feed seems to be working very well today. I haven't seen that working in a couple of months, I don't believe.
Is that the same as yours??
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Jim, that is what it is.
P.S. It seems to be pretty windy at Shepherdstown today. Is that right?
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Taking a lunch break and saw your question. Yesterday or day before...Live Cam started working again...isn't it wonderful? Read Steve's comment on The Daily page for Thursday.
It is a little windy, but a beautiful day (67°).
Back to work.
Jim, is it raining down there yet? over cast here and rain tonight. Our first since spring.
Steve has a new thread up now. Y'll come over.
Hi, Anne-Marie. No, no rain yet, although we did have some surprise showers on Monday.
It "is" cloudy and supposed to be a lot cooler today ... we've had a long series of 80's and 90's lately.
Tomorrow...and tomorrow night...we have a good chance for rain down here.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
I saw Lun Lun doing something I didn't know Panda's could do....
She was scratching her own back just ahead of her tail with her hind foot. They're like contortionists with those rear legs. ]:~D]
