MITS said...

OK Sharon, think I have one of them not to far from house, thanks

glo said...

Mits The local chiropractors around here carry it. Maybe you could call them. Hopefully they will sell it to you without snap crackle pop first.

glo said...

Sharon Hope you are doing well. I am sure you are glad your surgery is over.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Glo, I am really grateful the surgery is over and I am doing better than I ever anticipated. So grateful for that.

hedgie said...

How are you feelig this evening, Sharon? Hope your trip out wasn't too much for you...did Tom avoid the potholes, etc.?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Lynn, my outing was okay but think I walked a little too far. Tom did a good job avoiding potholes, but around here it is impossible to avoid all of them. I have kind of felt a little feverish this evening although I have not been running a temperature.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good night and sweet eagle dreams, my friends of fine feathers and fur.

MITS said...

Thanks, Glo,and Megan...got me an icy-hot patch, and aleve has been working really well, still have some good stuff from my surgery, but don't like to take anything that will make me more wacky than I already am

hedgie said...

Good night, Sharon. Keep an eye on the temp--activity can make it go up, and not unusual for especially an evening elevation after surgery....but call Dr. immediaitely if it stays over 100°!!

MITS said...

Glo, I have to tell you how much our Maggie loves the eagle blanket I won a couple of years ago....I take it when I visit them, or, it is at the the beach when they come down....Maggie immediately lays down on it and pats the eagle:)

MITS said...

Sharon, don't make me come down there, stay put, ok to move around because you have to, but it has not been a week yet, since you had 2 majors surgeries

glo said...

Mits Thank you so very much for telling me that. I am so glad that she loves that blanket. She has good taste :)

Mema Jo said...

Maggie was always our littlest eaglet
and she still is in my book.

That is very touching Mits.

Mema Jo said...

And Sharon - NO POPCORN

Very very proud of your not smoking!

MITS said...

even if she is not tired, we lay there for awhile, just relaxing and talking about eagles....well, I do most of the talking

magpie said...

...Sounds Dreamy, MITS - I still replay (in my mind) your voice saying "And this is the Baby" from your television spot from the Zoo..... ♥ ♥

MITS said...

yes, Tai really is still the baby to me....I really try now to say, "and this is our youngest Giant Panda, Tai Shan our 3 year old"

glo said...

Well that is an awesome picture in my minds eye Mits. I bet we can all picture it in our hearts. How very special.

magpie said...

Just talked to (step)daughter who lives in Fort Myers Beach, Fla. She is not far from Cape Coral...she also said she sees a lot of white ibises in her neighborhood, and also there is a local "Scarlet Ibis." I referred to the "Intercoastal Waterway" a few days ago regarding that Osrpey nest...wrong coast! It's just a canal which connects to a bunch of bays and other waterways...

Friend in New York saw the Tundra Swans flying over a few days ago, said they are "headed my way..."

Good Hello Evening to everyone...
Hope things are good in all the Eagle Corners...☺

magpie said...

One of these days I will spell OSPREY correctly, more often at least....I'm about 50-50 when I type it.

magpie said...

Someone called in last night about an animal which had been struck on the highway, said she thought it was a coyote....said she looked several times and ruled out Big Dog. Officer who went to remove it could only say it had "Big Teeth.." I suppose it could have been coyote, we do have them hereabouts...Poor soul, wish it had stayed in its field.

MITS said...

make sure you get outside and look for them, Margy....I am soooo missing the beach this time of year.

magpie said...

It was a chance encounter when I heard them in Dec 2006 - - went outside to check the full moon sky, and heard the beautiful sound....waited, and above, a beautiful white fleet flew in from the North West...heading South East...

MITS said...

they called 911, because they saw an animal with big teeth on the side of the road??

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Dr. Bombay, Dr. Bombay, emergency, come right away!

MITS said...

bbl, going to do a few things to puter to get it ready for the big hookup tomorrow with Verizon FIOS...hope it goes better than it did when Comcast came to give me high speed Internet, that took about a week.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, really good night this time. See you all in the morning and sending lots of love!

MITS said...

lol....Sharon, say Good Night:)

magpie said...

Nighty Night Dobule E-S - If you have the Magpie Syndrome you will be back on one or two more times, but you just better have the Get Well Syndrome!

The call to 9-1-1 was mostly because it was a hazard in one of the travel lanes...

Just switched over to my Thayer's Guide and listened to the Tundra Swans....aaaaaahhhhhh !

xo ♥

Mema Jo said...

Deets on the Snowman Cam

PA woods MT tonight for now.

floralgirl said...

Margy, when we were outside around 4 pm today , we saw 2 flocks of tundra swans fly over us- later just after dark I could hear them again, but couldn't see them.

hedgie said...

Finished watching the PBS show...fantastic! What wonderful photography. And so fun watching the eagles play "rugby" with the food! I'm taping it on VCR in the morning if anyone needs to borrow it!!

magpie said...

Oh Megan! You lucky gal..isn't it magical, and that soulful sound they make....I should have been outside listening!

Tubby time, back after I drown a few thousand bubbles...

xo

hedgie said...

Margy, I saw a coyote here back in the late winter....nearby farmer told my daughter there's a whole pack... that he's had to kill some who went after his cows. He said that when coyotes first reappeared here in Berkeley Co. it was right back here on Rustic Tavern Rd.

hedgie said...

hedgie said...

Mits...LOL...wasn't sure whether you were telling Margy to go out and look for ibises or coyotes!!!

hedgie said...

Daughter got an inch of snow "down" in Shanghai--it's about 15 miles south of me. All I got was a little rain and sleet!

hedgie said...

Early morning vet apptmt....Cinnamon having an ear problem....shaking her head so-o-o hard and scratching at them. So time for bath and then news and bedtime!!
Don't forget Mason's candles!
God bless us every one. Good night!

paula eagleholic said...

Awww Mits I can imagine Maggie patting the eagle.

When Cohen was over here on Halloween, we ended up down here in the basement, with the other little boy. Cohen wanted to see animals on the computer. He would tell me which one, and I would look for that animal pic online, and we would look at it. Then it was on to the next one!

Costume Lady said...

Lynn, we have seen Coyotes in our woods three or four times in a two year period. Not as pretty as a fox.

Costume Lady said...

There is nothing quite like fun time with grandchildren. My favorite memory is reading to my first two...it was the only time they were quiet ;)
Dustin wouldn't sit still long enough for me to read to him.

deb said...

Paula, my dogs like the kennel for the most part, the people at the vet treat them so well and they like to see the other animals. Sam is blind (for about 2 years now) and they are very good with him, make sure he doesn't bump into anything, etc.

deb said...

I have only seen 5 coyotes, 2 in NE and 3 here in SD.

Mema Jo said...

Snowing in the PA woods
Snow on the ground in Bluefield...

deb said...

I just got updates on the osprey and everyone is still in the same basic locations.

A15 is in La Coma, Mexico
A04 is north of Empire, LA
A00 is near Steinhatchee, FL

Mema Jo said...

Checked out Panda cam Atlanta

Lun Lun and Luney -- Like mother like son.......... lol

Mema Jo said...

Time for this sleepy eyed gal to sign off!

Good Night Everyone
Peace to you & yours
Prayers being said for All

(((hugs))) ♥

paula eagleholic said...

Aww Deb, I had forgotten Sam can't see. Best to take them to the same place so he is familiar with the sounds and smells at least.

We heard that Coyote on our cam this year, too.

paula eagleholic said...

No snow here yet...

Nite all!

magpie said...

Nighy Night Mema and all heading for the Feather Pillows...

Rest Well and Dream....
of your favorite things..

xo ♥

magpie said...

Wanda the unknown animal was on Shepherdstown Rd near Files Cross Roads....wouldn't surprise me if it was a coyote...just sorry it had to be anything to die like that....but mostly hope it was not a family pet...

Hedgie - we have had reports of coyotes near the GM plant in past years....

Sure enjoyed hearing all the grandchildren tales today....

magpie said...

I have an Eagle blanket, and now I will Always think of little Maggie...

Time to go to sleep...at night? it will feel so unusual...

God Bless Us, Every One...
Peace, Prayers and Love,
xo ♥

deb said...

Paula, Sam gets around so well, most of the time I forget he can't see. He won't jump down and doesn't like going down stairs. For stairs he will only go if he is on a leash and you walk right with him.

deb said...

Night, everyone.

Costume Lady said...

Whoa..time got away from me tonight, or this morning.

GOOD NIGHT(MORNING) EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS FOR ALL

Alcoa Eyasses

There has been a lot of "branching" activity by all three eyasses at Alcoa today, involving at least short flights to the top of the box, to the 'ledge' that surrounds the tank, and they have made it completely around the tank at least once.

Right now there are no birds in the nest box, so they could be branching more, or they could be all fledged today.

Take a look at Froona's blog, which has many pictures of their exploits today...and earlier if you scroll down. Also the small photo boxes are slide shows, and you might enjoy looking at those.

magpie said...

Well It is almost 5 am...and I am hoping that the Eagle Program is going to be on...I got PBS Channel 25 on...
T-Bird...are you up? Do you have snow?

magpie said...

Yes ! It is On ! thanks Hedgie !
I love you !

magpie said...

Nice Segue - I hear Eagles in Maine

magpie said...

I loved the Ice-Skating Eagles....and the Jumping Eagle reminded me so much of Baby Littley when we visited the nest June 7 - Yeah, what a show...

Whew - those naturalists, the two film guys - they were good weren't they??

magpie said...

And now I am just waiting for OUR BIRDS - and my Eagle ♀ and ♂ Buds

xoxo ♥ ♥

magpie said...

floralgirl Saw some Tundra Swans on the show....sitting in the water and flying and their song too...

I went outside a bunch of times overnight - listening, listening...

xo Have a good day with your work...♥ ♥

wvgal_dana said...

Margy you still here

magpie said...

JIM that Link to the Alcoa Eyasses is Fantastic! Thanks ! ♥ ♥

magpie said...

Yes, DANA - - Watching OUR Nest, Maine, and Finney's - -


Good Morning to You !!

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning

Did you watch the show on PBS?

magpie said...

Oh, Yes.....It was Great!

Have you seen it ??

wvgal_dana said...

Do you have DirecTV?

magpie said...

Oh Dear, I see the time on OUR NEST cam is not advancing....

carolinabeachmom said...

GOOD MORNING MAGPIE and all other feather and furry friends. Rats, I was laying there and forgot to turn on the PBS channel at 5am this morning. Missed the eagles again. :(

I was just about to say that not a creature was stirring, but Magpie and then looked in on the BWO nest to see the first eagle there. All other places seem MT; our nest, Maine, Pa woods, and snowman cam.

magpie said...

We do have an Eagle at BWO - -

carolinabeachmom said...

Hey DANA, what gets you up so early?

wvgal_dana said...

Morning Candy

Catching an eagle fix before school?

wvgal_dana said...

Hee hee Candy I fell asleep on the couch early watching the football game. Got some good sleep then.

magpie said...

Hey there Candy! So good to see you...

I have so few TV channels, DANA - Hedgie posted that it would be on PBS this morning so I got up to watch it!

Watching our nest right now is like watching grass NOT GROW !

carolinabeachmom said...

It sure does look like our cam is stuck on the 17th at 5:58 in the pm. :( Someone needs to go out there and give it a good kick to get is working again.

wvgal_dana said...

I thought so too Candy and Margy when I turned it on. Quit cold out there. Maybe the cell froze.

magpie said...

I'm hoping for something in Maine-
funny how the OUR cam just....Stopped...wonder what makes that happen??

Have a good day with the children today, Candy - I'm sure it will be a good day for them!

xoxox ☺ ☺ ♥ ♥

carolinabeachmom said...

DANA Trying to see an eagle or two and say HI while I get time for once. Guess I'll have to be satisfied with the one at BWO. I fell asleep on the couch for the first time in awhile last night, but woke up early and hit the bed. Sometimes the couch is just so comfortable and cozy.

wvgal_dana said...

They will replay it. Usually do have replays on these shows. Right now I'm watching to beautiful polar bears on the Science Channel.

magpie said...

Ha Ha - all our messages back and forth are "crossing in the mail."

magpie said...

BWO is pretty reliable for an early morning show, that's for sure..

magpie said...

The link that Jim posted has some Fabulous slide shows of the fledgling Peregrine falcons at Alcoa!

wvgal_dana said...

Brayden's first year party was so great. He was a blast! He really didn't like touching the icing. He was given his baby spoon and bounded away. I cut a piece and put on top of cake and that did it.
Hands and all he couldn't resist then. lol

carolinabeachmom said...

I just lost my comment. I was saying that the kids will have a good day at school, but I will have a better day when it is Friday afternoon.

I had to go to school this Saturday for a half day as we missed a day two weeks ago due to the noreaster. :( Sooooo I only had Sunday to enjoy peace and quiet.

Sure hope they have that eagle show on PBS again.

wvgal_dana said...

It's a wonder the blogger cop hasn't gotten one of us .. funny.

carolinabeachmom said...

DANA That must have been a precious moment. Kids are wonderful to watch and be with, no matter what age.

Two Eagles at BWO

wvgal_dana said...

We have lite snow on ground. Did you get any Margy?

That will be a nice weekend Candy.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING LADIES...
I just got up...have I missed a visit?

magpie said...

I've been waiting to hear about the Birthday party, DANA, sounds funny - the bigger the mess, the more the fun!

Candy - I can post what Hedgie had about the other broadcasts, let me go find it again...

carolinabeachmom said...

And with that, I had better hit the road for school. I get in there early and set things up before the kids arrive. You both have a wonderful day. It has been good to finally be talking on here to someone. I don't get much time now that school has started. Love and hugs!!!

magpie said...

Two Eagles at BWO now, drink it up !

xo

Costume Lady said...

Not a drop of snow here, Dana. How about in town, Margy?

carolinabeachmom said...

WANDA Hi to you too before I sign off. Good to see you are up and getting ready for the PJ club. It is school for me. Later gator

magpie said...

from Hedgie: The techno-gal: (yesterday afternoon)


FYI: Nature's "American Eagle" will play again tomorrow morning at 5am on Directv Ch. 384 & maybe Comcast Ch. 25, and on Sun. 11/23 on DC PBS Ch. 42 on Directv (may be 26 or 44 on Comcast).
Don't know what programming Dish or Verizon, etc. may have.

magpie said...

Nope Wanda - we all have missed a visit if there was one...the cam is frozen at 5:58...Sigh !

xo

Costume Lady said...

Glad you told me, Margy...I would have sat here for another half hour before I realized it :)

wvgal_dana said...

Later Candy been good! Have a Nice Day..

ty Margy for brinning that over for us and thanks Lynn.

You don't have any snow Wanda? Looks cold (it is) and slippery out.

magpie said...

Yep - to borrow an expression from you Wanda - "Like Watching Grass Grow "- NOT !

Here I was all excited that I could watch in time without missing it like I usually do...
Sigh.....

Costume Lady said...

Thanks to you, Margy for posting that rerun information...anyone who hasn't seen the show, it is really worthwhile to watch. I enjoyed it very much.

wvgal_dana said...

Nice fish at BWO

magpie said...

Got some pretty little birds at Pix Pa, they got some snow overnight...
nothing here, but I just watched my neighbor scrape ice off her windshield...what an unpleasant task...

Oh, nice large fish in the platform with the Eagles at BWO -

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Good morning wonderful eagle friends. We have about 3 inches of snow on the ground and still snowing. No school today. Mattie will be tickled. Waiting on a morning visitor. Lun Lun is pacing alot this morning.

Costume Lady said...

Dana, it is cold (30°) but not a flake of snow here. So glad...have to take Mom to doctor today, and I don't drive in ANY amout of snow.

Costume Lady said...

FROZEN CAM, SISSY :( :(

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Sissy

Hope all is better at your house.

magpie said...

Hey there Sissy-Gal -
Yay for Mattie ! Snow days are the Best! I guess Justin won't be too disappointed either, unless he has a gal pal that he won't get to see at school ! ♥ ♥

Yes, we are frozen up here....Wah!

Costume Lady said...

I emailed Steve...hope he can help us :)

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

My cam has the right time on it but has the rainbow at the top. Poop!!

magpie said...

But Wanda - you have your cool little SUV now....you are going to have to test drive it in the snow, but glad it is not going to have to be today ! xoxo Best wishes on the doctor visit with GeeGee, please give her a Magpie Hug for me ! ♥ ♥

magpie said...

Beautiful golden nest at Cape Coral...reminds me of one of the fairy tales...Sleeping Beauty? Rumpelstiltskin ? (try typing THAT twice) -

magpie said...

Well you got more than we do, Sissy. I have already reset it once and don't have the rainbow yet...

magpie said...

Well, we can always Watch Arthur on PBS - - -

magpie said...

Crows and or Ravens making a racket in Maine...
