Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Hello everyone again. Thanks Steve. Eagles looking like they are munching on something at BWO.

Bob Quinn said...

Hey Dana! Say hello to Ed. Will the raptor exhibit be back at the NCTC Open House this year? I'll try to be more sociable this year if it is :)

floralgirl said...

Hello again:) Hey Paula and Jo. I haven't looked at Bob's pics yet- still in laptop h*ll-trying to fix kid's computer..running spybot now.

MITS said...

it was a big fish, Sissy....

MITS said...

hey Bob....quick quiz....where are we having dinner:)?

Mema Jo said...

Even though our cam is stuck at 8:26
it is better then just green. Thanks
Mits for emailing Steve.

paula eagleholic said...

Got it, Mits. Thanks!

Megan, you can also try adaware

Mema Jo said...

OK is Bob having a Brain Freeze

You best answer up to Mits, Bob

lol

floralgirl said...

OK, Paula- thanks- spybot is still running right now, and it has located many problems.

MITS said...

Paula, e-mailed him, Jo:)

floralgirl said...

Hey Bob- it starts with R....
Really he better follow someone- it is so esy to miss the Clarion entrance-it's not well marked.

Mema Jo said...

I think someone should be the designated navigator and ride
with Bob........

MITS said...

we should just put him on the EAGLE EXPRESS:)

Mema Jo said...

Paula - thanks for emailing Steve
Helen - thanks for keeping me straight lol

MITS said...

no worries, Jo;)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

But he has to get to the Clarion to climb aboard the Eagle Express! :)

Mema Jo said...

Cool thinking Helen
However;the Eagle Express leaves from the Clarion parking lot -

Don't think Bob can find that

MITS said...

almost forgot.....HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY MY DARLING MOLLY

MITS said...

LOL....GOOD POINT:)

Mema Jo said...

Hey Hey Sharon my Eagle Buddy

Mema Jo said...

Donna Cox aka Mauley needs all our prayers concerning her
....Ultra Sound tomorrow. All prayers so very much appreciated. Hugs donna

paula eagleholic said...

Steve has our cam being checked out!

Thanks, Steve!

floralgirl said...

We'll just meet him somewhere at NCTC at the end of the open house- he can follow us to Clarion.

IF you hear a loud noise, it is me throwing a laptop out a 2nd story window-

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MOLLY!!

deb said...

I have some information on our osprey finally!

Wayne--The last to leave Yankton has made it to the Platte River in Columbus, NE. Not far at all yet.

Avista: The first to leave is in Phoenix City, GA.

Deb: Second to leave, Grand Isle, LA (yes, this is my bird)

Drag Queen: third to leave is near Laguna Morales, first to leave the US!

We always worried about Drag, she started off so slow with her leg dragging in flight. Whatever was wrong, she overcame it and appears to be doing great!

The 5th bird with long distance tracking has a bad transmitter and can't be tracked. We tried to catch her and take it off, but that was not successful.

No updates until after the 10th of October, Wayne seems to think he needs a vacation.

Silly man, doesn't he know we want to know where our birds are!!

Mema Jo said...

Ok Megan - Bob can follow one of us but I suggest 2 other cars right behind him - just to be sure there
are no wrong turns or as you said about missing the right turn up to the Clarion......

I just remember that when I pass the Grave Yard to get ready for that 2nd
right hand turn!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

TO THE #2 M OF THE FAMOUS M&M GIRLS,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR MOLLY!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!

AND MANY, MANY, MANY, MANY MORE!

MITS said...

thanks for the update, Deb......Jo, maybe we can get him a police escort:)

Mema Jo said...

Deb - I bet the reports you get are welcomed news. I hope they all make it and perhaps next year a few would return.

deb said...

I signed up for the train today. I can't come to WV and not meet Norma! I am looking forward to the beautiful scenery and eagle spotting!

deb said...

Jo, osprey stay south until they are two years old, then they migrate yearly after that. At 2 years old they start a nest, but usually aren't successful the first year in egg laying or hatching. Mostly, it seems to be a year to establish a nest.

deb said...

They are very welcome news. When we didn't hear anything for so long, I was imagining the worst. One day we might get news like the wayward osprey, that will be a sad day for us. As of now, we can all pretend that all 18 birds are still flying high, but deep down know that would be very unusual. My theory is that until someone tells me different, they are all still alive!

Bob Quinn said...

I'm back. Starts with an R. Hmmm.... Riccardo's? Ruffio's

Mema Jo said...

Deb - I can tell that this past year's experience for you has brought you a great amount of satisfaction. You have been so very fortunate and possibly this will make a difference as to what lies ahead in your future. I am happy you found us.

Mema Jo said...

You're not even close!
Mits says we are getting you a police escort! We are going to have fun at this dinner cause you are going to be there for sure - one way or another. lol

paula eagleholic said...

I'm sure one of us can grab Bob and toss him in someone's car :):)

deb said...

Now you are all worrying me, Will I miss the turn, too??

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Some of us will be at the Comfort Inn so you can come there and then we will go to the Clarion.

deb said...

Sounds good, I think Margie and I may drive over together, also, save gas and visit on the way. We are waiting on her work schedule.

paula eagleholic said...

Deb & Bob...we will make sure you get to dinner!!

MITS said...

no deb, you will not, but if you are with Bob....hmmmm, might be anoter story.....we love you Bob.

Bob Quinn said...

... Raymond's, Randy's...

Mema Jo said...

I hope you get in the Eagle Express, Deb. I think Margy's work schedule is coming around that she will be free Saturday. Deb as long as you don't forget the name of 'Clarion' or 'Rumsey' you won't get lost.
Bob just can't remember the names!

Mema Jo said...

I loved your SkipJack pics, Bob.
I love lighthouses!

deb said...

You all are too funny!! Can't wait, it is getting close now. I am off to do errands, etc.

2008 Season Diary Updates

Thursday September 18, 2008
The picture you see if you click here will be a familiar one for the next few weeks as the eggs are rarely left uncovered, rain, hail or shine. For Peregrines, the incubation period is 33 to 35 days from the date the last egg was laid. A quick calendar check and it looks like an expected hatching day will be around October 5 - 7.

**gOOD MORNING, EVERYONE**

Jim


Take a look. There's a new comment on the SD Panda blog.

Fresh blog


Mema Jo said...

ZZ is quite the cub! I hope LL will be doing the same. We have a lot of pandas to be watching. Thanks, Jim for the link. I love their new post card page.

I need some late lunch.....

Keep working on it Bob - This is only the 1st of Oct - you'll get it in time not to miss dinner. You almost had it with the Rum......

floralgirl said...

Well, personally I am ready to go to the rum runner right now..kid's laptop is driving me to drink...

Bob Quinn said...

Rum... Rum.... Rumpelstiltskin's!

movin said...

Excellent!! Love your Bay pics, Bob. Great views, great people.

Thanks.

Jim

Costume Lady said...

Just popped in here and you all have made me smile. You are such a great bunch of people. BOB...I like your name of the restaurant better than it's real name (Rumrunner is great!) Love photo of Thomas lighthouse. I'm not familiar with that...must find out more about it. SMILE MEGAN, WE LOVE YOU. Come see the Capt. and maybe he will give you and Eagle Talon. LOL

paula eagleholic said...

ROFLMAO, Bob!

Costume Lady said...

DEB...I think the Stink Bugs have all disappeared now. I haven't seen a new one for two days.

paula eagleholic said...

Eewwiiee at BWO

Costume Lady said...

SUGGESTION....We can hook Bob's car up to the tow bar on the Eagle Express and take him to the RUMRUNNER with us!

floralgirl said...

Cold weather slows down the stink bugs- that's why they are trying to get inside to escape the cold.
I ain't smiling yet, Wanda- I know you can relate to computer issues- I don't know what is in kid's computer, but it has got a hold on it. I may need a geek...

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle at BWO now

paula eagleholic said...

Hey!!!!

Our cam is working!

Thanks, Steve and Crew!!

paula eagleholic said...

Fish crows at BWO now.

movin said...

It is getting very hot here in So Cal this morning; so I did an emergency water run to try to save my Geraniums and Bougainvillea. :~D

I think I might have brought them back from the brink, but while I was out there, checking the Hummingbird feeder and finding it low but not empty, I happened to remember I wanted to see how the birds would do with plain water...

I poured maybe a cup into the second feeder and took it out there and set it in the shade on top of the a/c, and it didn't take more than a minute after I got back inside for the young male to notice it and give it a try. Then he flew to the regular one and tried about 3 of the flowers to learn if they still had nectar; and then right back to the water, where he took a nice long drink....

That's success. ]:~D]


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

paula eagleholic said...

Neat about the hummer and the water, Jim.

Poor Deshar :(

paula eagleholic said...

Now an eewwiie again at BWO

Busy place today!

Mema Jo said...

Thanks John & Steve - I see the cam ticking away. Later this month you
won't need to change it to Eastern Standard Time because it is already there! You fixed 2 birds with 1 stone so to speak! lol

paula eagleholic said...

Ha, you are so right on that time, Jo. But the time changes back in November now!

paula eagleholic said...

I think the cam is stuck again! :(

Mema Jo said...

Yepper! Cam has stopped dead!

When in November?

paula eagleholic said...

It's a week later....November 2nd

Costume Lady said...

PAULA...the UPS man just stopped here with that order I was telling you about. WHEW! I was afraid it wouldn't get here on time.

Mema Jo said...

lol Let's see if the FedEx man can get here with my order in that record breaking time !!

Mema Jo said...

That is great about the time change!
Now the children going out to Trick or Treat will have more daylight. It used to be pitch dark before they even started around 6pm.

Costume Lady said...

Jo, last week, I ordered SOME THINGS, on a Monday and they got here on Tuesday. How can that be possible?

magpie said...

Baby Luney All Alone...a Must See !

Hello Everyone...

paula eagleholic said...

Kewl Wanda!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I just have to tell you I would be so fired from my job if I worked at the Atlanta Zoo. I would not be able to keep my hands off of that precious Little Luney!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Deer in PA!

magpie said...

That's a pretty long stretch for Luney with his Momma...

magpie said...

I mean WITHOUT HIS MOMMA !

deb said...

Loraine and Gary's cam is up and working at Wildwatch and Loraine posted a few pictures of Star and Spirit. Not the best pictures, but until they get the new servers hooked up, it is better than nothing!! Loraine takes pictures of the monitors, then posts the pictures.

Kent Eagles

Mema Jo said...

I'm gonna go get him

deb said...

We have frost warnings out for tonight. :( Come back, summer!!

wvgal_dana said...

Margy even though he is still a baby. He is getting older and mom can stay away for longer periods. Oh my did I say that "he is getting older"....cry cry Don't you sometimes just wish he could stay a baby. Then we would miss his tumbling and climbing episodes if he stayed a baby.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Jo, will meet you there!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Going to Sis's for supper. BBIALW!

magpie said...

I love the way that little bottom part of his body fills out when he breathes, kind of like a balloon! He seems pretty content but I wish we could cover him up with a sweet little blanket

magpie said...

Two eagles at BWO now..

deb said...

Two eagles at BWO.

wvgal_dana said...

His "blanket" just came back lol

magpie said...

deb said...

Hi Margie. I noticed we doubled up on comments!

magpie said...

DEB AND DANA :

Love your Avatars !!

magpie said...

DEB - I don't mean to be ignorant, but what bird is that on your Avatar?...I'm embarassed not to know...but I guess the only stupid question is the one I don't ask...

magpie said...

I think Luney has an ITCH !!

Mema Jo said...

Going for dinner.
Then I want to ask some questions about Kent.....

BBL

deb said...

A red tail hawk, tail isn't red at this angle.

ceil said...

Thanks Deb. Nice to know Star and Spirit are still around. Loraine said they spent the night. That is great.

magpie said...

HAPPY BEAUTIFUL FIRST BIRTHDAY TO MOLLY, A QUEEN OF HEARTS!

magpie said...

paula eagleholic said...

Another handsome eagle at BWO :):)

paula eagleholic said...

And now for the bad news....

Tesoro and Cape Coral cams may not be operational this season, due to lack of funds... boo hoo

Mema Jo said...

Love the hawk pic Deb
He is really beautiful

I looked at your slide show late last night - Such a variety you had to take in in one afternoon!
Get your Kayak - S'town is famous
for the Potomac kayaking.

Mema Jo said...

We just had a few rain drops but it
is too dark for rainbow!

WOW Paula - we better get ready to sell our things at NCTC table. Don't
want them telling us our cam is
financially not on for a season..

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, I am back. Good supper - BBQ chicken and buttered noodles.

I just had an adult and a juvie cardinal, song sparrow and a towhee out here. Love it!

Mema Jo said...

I think that is the Lord Blackwater of the nest we watch. I hope this weekend they visit this platform because then all those at Open House
will look right out and see them!

magpie said...

Lord BW is staying a looooonnng time tonight...

I think you are right JO

magpie said...

Luney is all alone again in a Bed of Straw...

magpie said...

Check out the Eagle Eyes on BWO - eerie !

ceil said...

Margy he is out late tonight.

magpie said...

Yes, Nice, Ceil...since we cannot see OUR Eagles tonight..

magpie said...

I think the skies might clear up enough here to see the BABY MOON ..I hope so..

magpie said...

..And that's it for BWO...

ceil said...

Yep he left. It is cloudy here.

magpie said...

Well, if not Baby Luna, at least we have Baby Luney...

ceil said...

Your right Margy. He is precious. Jo I hope the eagles stay long at the platform for people going to BW. I hope ours are around on the 18th.

ceil said...

Update on Atlanta cub. I'm pretty sure Mits did not put it on today yet. Want to stay out of the corner.I am on an ice cream kick. Going to get some. BBL

Mema Jo said...

I checked our NCTC/FWS site today but advanced notice of events at Open House have not yet been posted.
Steve said that the programs are not yet ready - thought I could get an early one so we would know what we had to look forward to and didn't miss anything. They always have the program at the Admin Bldg when you pull in. They also have shuttle buses that go between the bldgs where the events are held.

Mema Jo said...

It's safe to post the update, Ceil since Helen has been at the zoo all afternoon. Not sure if she also had night meeting......

magpie said...

Well, I saw Venus, Jupiter, the handle of the Big Dipper, Antares in Scorpius, a bunch of airplanes and, One Great Blue Heron flew over the neighborhood. Honest! Gonna go prowl the streets to see if Luna will peer through the clouds..it might just be too NEWBORN to see...regardless of the clouds...

Mema Jo said...

Well if you are prowling - take a
flashlight and give us a call if we
need to come over there and bail
you out for just being suspicious
looking! I bet you are wearing your
bibs! They are going to come get you

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Good evening my wonderful eagle friends!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Been sitting working on the calendar for staying with Tom's mother. That is a full time job, I tell ya!! But, we have just about got the month of October covered. That is a miracle all by itself. Not alot of cooperation but we got it.

Robyn said...

Good evening.

Seems like it will be a cold night as they are calling for lo 40's. Hope everyone stays warm tonight

magpie said...

Hi Robyn and everyone else!

Yes, cool it is.

SISSY - I actually decided to drive around on my second search. I did have my pajama bottoms on! I know the little rascal is out there, but too many clouds, and now, it has set for sure. But I saw a lot of campaign signs, one gaudy church marquee, and a few pretty nice Hallowe'en decorations.

Wish I lived close to you folks...I would take a few tours with Eppie for sure! Hope it works out and that all come into the fold...Many hands make light the work!

xx oo

MITS said...

HELLO, EVERYONE quiet day at the zoo during my interpretation shift....and it rained cats and dogs.....all the Asian Trail Animals are fine....came in and did the cams from 4 til 7, got home made a quick dinner and am now going thru posts and e-mails:)

Robyn said...

Hi Magpie, evening Mits

hedgie said...

Well, Deb, OF COURSE the pics are great. But I want to see you in the kayak!!!!!

hedgie said...

Criminal Minds taping...watching the finale of America's Got Talent...keeping my fingers crossed for my choice!!

hedgie said...

Jo, is there anything that we momsters do at the open house besides the sales table???

hedgie said...

Am I all alone??

MITS said...

October 1
Last week was an eventful one for Tai Shan. Tai was given a complete physical under anesthesia. Recently, he had been reluctant to eat leaf-eater biscuits. This is the time of year when pandas can be picky about their bamboo, but they usually continue to consume their biscuits. They never lose interest in the sweet and juicy produce (apples, pear, carrot, and sweet potato)! We decided to give Tai a physical so we could get a thorough body assessment. This exam also gave us an opportunity to evaluate a panda during its seasonal period of low energy and appetite loss.

Tai is in excellent health. His body condition, from his nose to his tail, with special attention to his teeth, checked out just fine. Of course, we already knew that he is just perfect! One interesting finding was some inflammation of his esophagus, similar to the condition called acid-reflux in humans. This was discovered by using an endoscope to look at his digestive tract. Similar medications are used with zoo animals to soothe the irritated esophagus. Although a lot is known about this condition, especially in people and some domestic animals, we are providing new information to our medical database on pandas. And I'm happy to report that Tai Shan is chomping on his biscuits like a champ again!

Zoo animals get physical exams as part of a comprehensive preventative health-care program. Scheduling is dependent on many factors related to the need to monitor health, based on knowledge of the natural history and health of particular species, experiences in zoos, and individual medical history. Every time a procedure is done, we build upon a comprehensive and ever-growing body of information on exotic species.

UPDATE ON TAI'S CHECKUP

Mema Jo said...

Hi Lynn, Nope! Paula will be asking for some help at the table.
We visit any and all exhibits and just mingle. Lunch is a fun time when we all get together.
And then we round up Bob and head over to the dinner.

magpie said...

NO, HEDGIE ! You are never alone!


I am digging through piles of things looking for one little article! I guess I keep too many things....

Glad you had a good day!

xoxo

MITS said...

Rounding up Bob.....are we going to take shifts, watching him????

MITS said...

AND FROM ATLANTA......
Wednesday, October 1
All four pandas are doing just great. Yang Yang and Mei Lan still show no signs of interest in the newest little addition. I am sure that occasionally they are able to hear some of his vocalizations, but they have not shown any response. They continue on with their normal daily lives of eating bamboo, sleeping and the occasional play bout. Lun Lun continues to eat more bamboo each day and has even started to eat bamboo without receiving a reminder from her keepers that she has more than just leafeater biscuits and fruit as a dietary option. The cub continues with his daily routine of nursing and sleeping -- things that all babies do best! His weight at yesterday afternoon's checkup was 1088 grams.

Mema Jo said...

MITS: if I had to eat bamboo and more bamboo I bet i would have inflammation of my esophagus! lol
As the article said
TAI IS PERFECT FROM HIS
HEAD DOWN TO HIS TAIL/TOES

Mema Jo said...

Some pictures of Star & Spirit are up on the Kent Gallery - Deb had the link. The cams are still not hooked to the server so we can't see them but they are still there.

Mema Jo said...

News Article says: Senate passes revised bailout bill

Mema Jo said...

Did you find it yet, Margie?

hedgie said...

Good updates on the panda, Mits!
Okay, Jo...can I ride on your cart w/ you?? I know, YOU are the driver! LOL!
How was your day, Margie? Didn't get to lsiten to much! Please be careful on your little evening excursions....I worry about you.

floralgirl said...

Brr.. had to turn heat on in a couple of rooms. Senate passed a bailout bill- went from 3 pages to 451....

hedgie said...

Got thrown off...see cam is still stuck on this afternoon...so it's obviously not going to reset itself! Oh, John....guess what???

hedgie said...

Me, too, Megan...just for a little while..and then warm bath and electric blanket in bed!!

magpie said...

Negative, Hedgie, and I am getting thoroughly disgusted, so I am quitting the search for tonight...
have come across a number of intersting things though....

Good Warm Evening to all...
Time to get cleaned up...

TTFN - xo

Mema Jo said...

Deer at the salt lick..in PA woods

I must be the slowest typer in the world. He is gone.....and so is
the salt lick

MITS said...

I saw two deer by the side of the road on zoo property near Connecticut Ave when I was leaving tonight

hedgie said...

Happy here!! The young opera singer, Neal E. Boyd, WON AGT!!!!
Second year in a row that my fav has won. Now Chrissy's countryman Paul Potts has a new contemporary!

Lolly said...

Hi All!!! Got home Sunday but have not been on the computer. Jack has had teleconferences both days, so I have let him have our study and puter.. Have spent two glorious days outside. Apparently not having as cool weather as you, but it is beautiful and oh so pleasant out.

Deb, so glad you are going on the train ride. We are really looking forward to it.

Now, I am getting a little concerned about Bob, or should I be concerned about finding the Rumrunner Inn. LOL Hey! We do not even know how to find NCTC!! We are in big trouble!

hedgie said...

Hi Lolly. Where did you get your camping reservation for??

Mema Jo said...

Lolly Can you get to Harpers Ferry?
We can send you the best local directions like to the NCTC, Clarion and up the road to Romney.

I know you are experienced travelers!
You're the navigator aren't you???

Mema Jo said...

Most important is that we get some
telephone (cell's) to you upon your arrival. Deb too.

Mema Jo said...

Lolly Megan & Lynn are turning on the heat this evening!
BRING YOUR INSULATED UNDERWEAR GAL!

Robyn said...

Magpie thank you but that cute waving little is a terror, and to think he was smaller then a beenie when we found him.

He is my creeper reincarnated in every respect

Robyn said...

Jo maybe it will be cooler this year then it was last year

hedgie said...

Having a bad time w/ blogger cop or internet...giving up for tonight. Peace, prayers and blessings for all. See you fowl folk tomorrow!

Costume Lady said...

LYNN, I, too, am a happy camper...I thought Neal would win the first time I heard him. Absolutely beautiful voice! When he sang MAMA..it gave me goosebumps.

Costume Lady said...

We will have to work something out for you, Lolly, to guide you to NCTC. I live only 3 or 4 miles from there and probably 8 miles from Falling Waters campground.

Lolly said...

Whoops! I was typing a letter to Chrissy! Forgot about the blog. Sorry! Yeah, I am the navigator and we get around pretty well!

We did not get reservations. We plan to stay at Falling Waters RV park, but when we called they said they do not take reservations. We plan to call them again a week before we leave.

Ok, I'll pack my long-johns!! LOL
I am getting excited!

Tell me....what do we do about lunch at Open House?

Mema Jo said...

Robyn Watch out for the Indian Summer in Mid October.. I love the cool weather but I closed the whole house up for this evening..
COLD OUT THERE

I'm not sure where the little stray cat goes at night.. I can't track him/her.

Costume Lady said...

It could be very warm or very cold Oct. 18...some years, at that time of October, we have the heat on in the shop and other years, have the A/C on.

Costume Lady said...

LOLLY, you can bring Pizza for all of us! LOL

Mema Jo said...

Lunch at Open House - You Just Eat!

Ok I am being a smartie.
The cafe seating area will take your breath away if you like the woodsy look. The food will be anything you could possibly want. The prices are
usually reduced for the event and they are low to begin with.

Lolly said...

And, what time is dinner?

Lolly said...

Oh, yes! You guys are getting cute this evening. I do make a good pizza, but sorry, no deal!!!!

Mema Jo said...

We go over around 5:00. Only 10 minutes away from NCTC - don't tell Bob how close it is... We want to surprise him......

Mema Jo said...

Lollie - we plan to get you up to S'town Friday evening. Others will
be arriving.....

Mema Jo said...

But Lollie you do remember your prize winning dessert - right?
We'll have a special place on the dessert table for TX.

Lolly said...

Okay! Just tell me what, when, and where! We plan to arrive Thursday to rest and get a feel of where we are on Friday. We figure three days of driving to get there.

Lolly said...

Now I could bring that million doller cheese cake.....but are you sure the Rumrunner Inn will let me bring it in? :)

Robyn said...

Lolly I live near Falling Waters Campground, you cn meet up with me and follow me to NCTC

paula eagleholic said...

No problem, Lolly!

Lolly said...

Thanks Robyn! I really do think we can find it, but will holler if we need you.

MITS said...

give me a few days, and I will see what we can do at the Comfort Inn Friday night, I was thinking if they had a room we could all get together and we could have pizzas or subs brought in.....I'm going to be up that way in a few days

Lolly said...

Paula, how is your Mom doing?

Costume Lady said...
