Indiana Nesting Eagles----Dave
It is funny how we notice our own spelling errors, but don't always notice others. I read forware as forward. I think your mind just processes what it should be, instead of what it sees.
Thanks, Steve, have a good weekend.
I am off the the store, the squirrels broke one of my bird feeders. It was just a cheap plastic ones, I think the cold and the squirrels snapped it.
Dave, we had that cold yesterday, today we are already up to 32. Hope it goes away for you quickly.
Howdy New Thread People...
I am hoping I'll have better luck on this one.
Nice Eagle, Deb.

BACK FROM LUNCH SISSY!!---Oh--I loved that movie just for the COOL music!---I watched it more than once---I'll remember his name now!!
Talked with NURSE VICKY at lunch!!----She says need to get the FOOT ELEVATED when you can!----She said a soak in EPSOM SALTS water might help some of the swelling!!---bottom line-- MUST stay off ankle as much as possible!!! -- sorry--take care!!
I suppose maybe it has been there awhile.
I am going to pick up my Blazer again - Heater system had an air pocket and quit on me.
I look forward to reading back through (I hope) to see what I missed.
Good Afternoon. TTFN xo
MORNIN' INDIANA DAVE!!----We are up to 31° now!---but no snow yet!!--STAY WARM! ho!
RED...if you are one here, I need some advice (again). The counter spy is still running, but nothing is changing. The numbers are staying the same and nothing new has happened. At this point, nothing but chocolate chip cookies are flying through the top of the screen. Should I turn it off, or let it keep running? It has been about 3 or more hours.
Hi Miss Norma...I am having 'puter problems, so I must tend to that. If it doesn't stop scanning soon, I will be eating crab legs while it is still going and going and going :)
Wanda, It sounds like it is hung. Should not take more than one hour to run the first time. I would stop it and try again.
OKIEDOKIE:)
There is an Eagle at BWE -
Eagle at BWE!
I heard there was an eagle in Maine earlier.
Mmmm choc chip cookies....where's Megan :)
Buddy News !!!
UPDATE: December 5, 2008
by Dr. Dave McRuer, Director of Veterinary Medicine at the Wildlife Center of Virginia
The Norfolk eagle (08-0887) will undergo another dremeling in two to three weeks to further correct the curvature in the beak. During our daily rounds yesterday, we decided to move a Red-shouldered Hawk from our large flight pen to a smaller one. This move had a snowball effect on other patients; the Norfolk eagle is now back in the medium-sized flight pen he was in one month ago.
The bird continues to eat with great enthusiasm from the rat, mice, and fish delicacies we provide. His weight currently stands at 3.6 kg (7.9lbs) and he continues to stay in good health.
Was...an eagle.
I'm pretty happy just seeing avatars at this point and reading a few comments.
Norfolk News!!
The Va. Dept. of Game and Inland Fisheries has given the OK to relocate the cam and IR light to the original nest on Wednesday Dec. 10 (no rain please!) A few problems to work out before we go live on WVEC but getting there.
Our volunteer tree climbing experts Tim Nuckols from Nuckols Tree Care and Chad from ODU are volunteering their time for the big move. Joe Flanagan from WVEC plans do do a TV spot again about the relocation. I hope some eagle papparizzi can make it. Duane said he will be there. Shelly???
The time is tentatively set for 10:00 but may change for Joe Flanagan's schedule and it will take a while for the three climbs. Reese Lukei and Steve Living (DGIF) will be there.
The eagles were around for a short while this morning working on the nest.
You gotta take a look at the two Panda sites.
It's Mom and son cuddling and sleeping at Atlanta.
And I think it's Bai Yun sleeping on the ground at SD; and while she's trying to do that, flies are bothering her ears.
I've never seen a Panda move its ears before, but she's waving them around like semaphore flags!

Jim
Thanks for the Buddy Update, Paula...☺
Back at BWE
Oh Boy BWE has eagle again.
Going to visit a sick friend at the hospital.
You'uns have a good afternoon.
Hope there is lots of wildlife at all the cams you are watching.
xo ♥
Poof Eagle Gone BWE. :(
Poof Magpie gone.
Now, Bai and ZZ are rolling and frolicking in the pine shavings the keepers put in their enclosure.

EAGLE ALERT OUR NEST!!!
Eagle alert! Just flew in w/ Tiny Stick in beak!!!
Stick re-arranging time!
And off we go off the back!
AND GONE.
Like your avatar Deb
Great to hear about Buddy-wish they would sent out another short video of him......
Margy went POOF ???
Lot of reports of Tree Climber and cam fixers in the news - Should be a great viewing season coming up!!
Here is hoping Lolly can fill her monitor with them all....
Late for Turkey to be in the PA woods but there he is - maybe he is the one who is digging holes....
Whoops! It is a hen.....
Back from shivering in my bones :) but it was a beautiful trip well atleast I think so. Dex loves to ride no matter where he goes.
Oh hmmm new thread here and unless you were up early this morning you probably didn't even miss me LOL.
Well more snow tonight and work tomorrow. Got the nest on. Sounds are great. Hoping to see a visitor soon. Looks like I just missed one.
You made a day of it Glo. Was beginning to wonder what time you were coming home. lol
Eagle at BWO platform.
There were 2 at BWO, one must have poofed!
Tribute to the Puppies
RED...I'm back and (whispering)..shh..I think counterspy did the trick. I have to get ready to take my Mom for Crab Legs, so I can't test my new, cleaned out 'puter right now. I'll try it out tonight. Thank You, Thank You!!!! Shhhhh. (don't want to jinx it) :)
Awww the puppy tribute was sweet indeed. Its the hard part time as those cute and cuddlies all adjust to a new life and us to life without them. I am glad they kept one and hope some of the other owners will say yes to the web cam offers.
Wanda, did it clean lots of files?
BBILW
Kewl tribute! They were in a carrier at first...interesting!

Missed the visit...is our cam humming now?
Got excited and was typing the alert..my manners
Good Evening Everyone
Sorry you missed the visit Paula and here you was making sure that people like me. That missed the other visit got to see it. Thank you for sharing.
I love you "fishies" ( : I fed them...
Thanks Paula for the update on Norfolk Eagle Cam and the update on
Buddy. Who sounds like he is really doing well. Happy Happy !!
Whispering to Wanda...when you get back from Crab Legs I hope
you have a improved working computer...
Yup, it's humming :)
Catch ya'll later!!
After shutting down my browser for the umpteenth time today, I uninstalled Adobe Flash player and reinstalled it. I sure hope it helps. Our cam kept freezing and the only way I could get it started again was to start over. It seems to be working and the picture is clearer.
Yes Paula it is humming..
Thanks, for feeding my fishies, Dana. LOL
Wanda - hope you enjoy the crab legs w/ GEEGEE
OK really outta here now (sorta pulling a Margy!)
I have video of the second visit, but you will see why I uninstalled Adobe when it loads.
Deb are you running version 9 or 10?
I'll check back later for the answer...thanks!
Looking at BWO CAM to the right back corner of the nest. Is that a full moon or some kind of shadow??
bbl supper
I had 9, now I have 10, Paula.
The Sharp-shinned hawk just made another attempt at food. This time he left empty taloned. I was watching the birds and, poof, all gone. I finally found the hawk in the pine tree, then it swooped after a bird and missed, perched for a minute on the lamp post and left.
Must have been a shadow Dana. Moon is not even close to full.
Well, I am sure sorry to have missed all the Eagle fun at OUR Nest today, but look forward to what some of you have saved.
So, Sharp-shinned Hawk it is Deb?
Has anyone got good South skies for Our Celestial Trio? Is it not amazing how the positions have changed this week. Moon is no surprise, but the two planets, so cool.
And, I have a good sky for ISS tonight...around 6:39 MY TIME in from the West North West, at 28-degrees. Can't Wait!
Hello Hello Hello it is so good to have a somewhat zippy computer for a change.... ☺
I need to chase downb Paulleo and Mrs. Paulleo for the ISS...
Emphasis on "somewhat"
Nice deer at Pix Pa - -
Bull Moose resting in the snow....Brrrrrrr ! xo ♥
Visit video is posted on Nest Pictures and another picture of the hawk on Deb's Pictures.
Yes, Margy, it is a juvenile Sharp-shinned.
Couldn't raise Paulleo on email...got a Python Error Message. Woof.
Here is the site again if you'uns want to punch in your zip code:
Satellite tracking
only one problem, it won't open up...not for me anyway....says I am not connected to the internet.
Oh yes I am...I'll try it again later.
Okay DEB, I am going to watch!
Spaceweather.com is down Margy.
Great Video and Photos, Deb !
When I looked at your pictures yesterday, I only saw the last three of four, did not see the full frontal puffy view until now, or I guess I might not have guess Fox Sparrow! Yes, I think that rascal could eat some birds....
xo
I didn't get the other picture until later, when it was done with dinner.
Ditto That, Red !
I checked it a few hours ago thank goodness so I could see when I can see things tonight...
Question Red - can too many emails cause this computer of mine to slow down so much today? And I would be embarrassed to tell you how many... but it is a lot. I keep wanting to get in there and save and delete, but seem to spend more of that kind of time watching wildlife and yacking on here!
☺
I would not think email would slow it down unless you have limited disk space. Do you know how much disk space you have remaining?
Just got home to check Cams I left up & lo & behold BOTH were on the Live Cam---sun was out & pic not moving. I'm afraid to refresh & lose them!
Red
I have capacity for 55.8 GB and am using 10.9 GB -
as many have commented about today (I think, not really being able to access the Blog very well) - that I probably need a better Spyware program, and I will be cleaning up the email files, soon (I hope).
I delete cookies and temp internet files often, shut down computer, and all that, but today has been horrible ! Thank you.
Hi Double N!
Welcome Back.
I gotta shut this thing down...it is getting on my last nerve....
Back in a little bit..
xo :(
Margy, You might want to try Counterspy too. The free download is the full blown version they just limit the days you can use it without buying it. I think the full price is $19.95 for the first year and then its even cheaper. And PC magazine says it's the best one on the market.
Time for ISS soon anyway....
Maybe I will have a sparkling report when that is done! xox
Also Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 had problems. If anyone is using it I would go back to version 6.
UPDATE ON PUPPIES LEAVING FOR NEW HOMES
Q. Which pups are going to new homes this weekend?
A. We are still working around the schedules of the new owners but it currently appears that Akoni and Ando will be heading to their new homes on the afternoon of Sunday, Dec 7th.
Look for the boy with black collar
and boy with the blue collar
Mrs. Red is on her way home so I'm out of here. My night to dine out. See y'all later.
I was watching the pups this afternoon and they sure were rambunctious. First time I had seen them going outside.
Great word, Rambunctious, RED - reminds me of this computer!
Got your tips, and also Deb's -
will work on some of that in a little bit.
ISS was pretty good, pretty bright, but only rose its 28-degrees then poof! out like a light bulb.
I think I am going to check that puppy cam now, then rustle up some bath bubbles.
See y'all and you'uns later, I hope....! xox
Extremebirdfeeding - some action
Man oh Man! That site takes so long to come up and I don't have any idea
what the password is... Maybe Dana
told us when she found it - can't remember. Really wanted you to see the whole herd of deer at one of the
feeders..........
Puppy nap is going on now, Margy.
Go get your bubbles and then return
I just opened it, Jo, and it didn't ask me for a password. It did take forever to open.
Good evening everyone! Hope all is well with you this evening.
It is a cold 23° in Bluefield. I am freezing!
I'll try it again later, Deb..
Yepper it is a very cold night out there! So thankful that the wind isn't blowing around here.
Put some fuzzy socks on Sharon & get your hot chocolate. Glad your are feeling a little better! ♥
Whoo Hoo Sharon - you got wax I think! Been so long since we played...
Lights are out on the puppy cam.
Maybe they are just introducing them to darkness......
hey Sharon how ya feeling:)?
adios to the puppies:)
Hi Mits - the black & the blue collars are the two little boys that will be first to leave.....
Howdy, all. Had a great time out shopping for toys for the grandkids! Didn't find an eagle for Cohen...I might have to settle for a beanie eagle!
Sharon - it's 19° here! Mighty cold!
Awww, did some puppies leave?
Man Magpie, wish I had all that room on my computer! I am constantly backing stuff off of it onto CD's.
Ok, so we still have all the puppies...
My computer is all nice and clean! Ran two different scans!
Puppies are finally pooped!
Oh my, there is a chef's hat on the snowman! LOL
OK, gotta go sort out the toys!
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SEE YOU IN THE MORNING
PRAYERS FOR ALL
Margy is trying to clean up her 'puter
Her message to all is:
please tell our Eagle Buds Good Night for me, Peace, Love and Prayers, and that I hope to "beat them to the nest" in the morning!
Have fun Paula!
Good Night Everyone
Peace to you & yours
Prayers for everyone's needs being said
((Hugs)) ♥
Gnite, all!
Hugs for all.
***GOOD nIGHT***

Okay, Okay, if you insist!
I will be the last one on! ( Maybe - you never know on a Friday night what folks are up to !
Things are looking a little zippier here....whew! xo ♥ ☺
Thanks to Jo for delivering my message !
And thanks to Deb for the tutorials...and all of you for your suggestions and tiops. still got some things to plow through. ☺ xoxo
do not ask me what "tiops" are ! ☺
Margy, I will just get on long enough to let you know that you are not the last on......☺ It is 2 AM here and we just got home from Dallas. We were baby sitting, not late night partying. LOL
I know where I am going on my surprise trip!!!! Tell you all in the morning. I am so excited!!!!!
Sorry about that, cannot get the link to go where I was trying to. When you get to the bird feeder - then go to "See Live Images." Scroll down, there are about a dozen choices, -
Check out the Santa Two, especially, and then the very first box: Saw reindeer on there overnight.
LOLLY !
You have us on the edge of our seats !
Can't wait to get your update!
xox
Some of the sites take a few seconds to open up, it might say you need Active X to open it, but I didn't..
This was one of the Scottish Osprey sites from last year..was just checking out some of my favorites and found what's there now.
Good Morning to Everyone, hope your day goes really well....
xoxo ♥
Ha - wait until you see the ducks waddle past. And there was a big round something on the feeder, not a guinea hen but big and round
Wanda! Deb ! There is a pheasant at that feeder now ! I cannot believe this!
GOOD MORNING MARGY...ARE you talking to yourself again?
It's a male, cannot see its whole tail
Eagle is vocalizing at Maine.
Can you give me the URL, Margy?
http://www.thewebbroadcastingcorporation.
com/swt/swt.php
Bunches of chickadees, goldfinches in their winter colors, and a great little bird with a red and white breast ..☺ ♫
Pheasant has left...please tell me you saw it...I can't get a screen grab off the site...
Deb and Loretta will have some bird identifying to do for us! There is one that Looks like a chickadee, but it has some eye stripes....
Good Morning Wanda! How is the computer working this morning?
Mine, so far so good....
but it is still fragile....
There went two mallards, waddle waddle...
Squirrels got the feeder now...two little red ones...with big bushy tails
That's what you call a Cacaphony!
But I'm watching OUR NEST mostly
Margy, I couldn't find the site you were watching...there are so many.
'puter is much better, so far.
Holey Moley ! I lost ya' Wanda !
Eagle in the nest at Maine....
.. Was in the nest at Maine...
Wanda - we can work on it later...
Blue link didn't work either?
xo
I'm still here, Margy...trying to find the site with the pheasant.
OUR NEST is so inviting for a visit! And color is up at Maine...
No, blue link shut me down. Had to re-boot.
I hear people sounds now, maybe someone getting ready to put more food out. I fell over when that pheasant showed up, he was there about 5 minutes ♥
Today is one of the days that Mema Jo mentioned is blackpowder hunting day at NCTC - - those will be some Loud Gunshots !
Well, maybe I should delete that comment then - don't want anyone $%@@!!&%-ing me out !
It's the old Scottish Osprey site, Scottish Wildlife Trust, or Web Broadcasting Site either one..
Back in a minute
Eagle Alert our nest !!
bOTH OF THEM!
Nestorations, both ♥
Look out below! There went some sticks overboard !
Dogs barking....
OMG ! Eagle sounds at our nest, both out of the nest but I think they are real close to the microphone.... ♥
Boy am I glad to have some company for this !
Darn, I went to get some coffee and now they are gone :(
I removed the blue link to Scottish Wildlife Trust, maybe will play around with it later.
I think I just heard a red-shouldered hawk at NCTC too...
Wasn't that Great Wanda!
Hope the Captain is making the coffee this morning ! xoxo ♥
Weird, that you have sound and I don't???
I turned off Maine to make sure it was OUR Eagles, and it was !
The Capt. was sitting right here with us watching our Royal Pair.
He doesn't very often get to do that.
I saw two different kinds of boats at Finney's this morning, and a great little bird that looked like a Evening Grosbeak.
And THAT was a Blackpowder rifle at NCTC !!!
So I don't think I would be near that nest if I was an Eagle.
The Captain might find it interesting to hear some of that, Wanda...
Oh, well, It is What It Is...
♥ I was hoping you would tell us that the Captain was watching! ♥
I got a pile of stuff to do today...expect my step-daughter in sometime (James's Mother...) - up from Florida. Told her I would get out some cold weather clothes - she's gonna need them ! xoxo
Every time I see those two in the nest...I want to get in the car and drive down there and see them FOR REAL! It is just a magnificient experience to see them, there really live.
She's been gone for 18 months. Her son cannot wait to see her...
Wanda, Gene, it has been Greeaattt sharing the morning with you!
Little Wren chirping near the nest now...
Good Day, Catch you Eagle ♀ and ♂ folks a little later on....
xoxo ♥ ♥
Hope you have a nice visit with James' Mother and probably James too.
Thanks Wanda!
Hens for Gene at Pix Pa...maybe the Gobblers will come along soon... ☺
Good morning. I was watching them. How beautiful. After they flew off, you could here one of them calling right near the camera.
Good morning everyone.
