GOOD MORNING MARGY...
I see you have been up most of the night and were joined by Loretta at 4 o'clock. Good thing you both take PANDA NAPS!
We missed you yesterday. Hope you got important things done.

Costume Lady said...

Oh, we just SPLIT. I was not expecting it and got confused. So, here I am all alone.
Hope we can see our morning visitors, even though the cam is messed up a bit.

magpie said...

Hi Wanda - sorry I missed you before you hit the pillows!

Spent the day with daughter transfering things out of storage bin, and had some personal business had to take care of but it was all I could do not to log on and Blog, believe me!

Yesterday marked a year since my sister died, and I spent some time getting something for, taking it to the cemetery, and spending some time there and on emails with family about it.

No birds for us this morning...it's going to get wet, soggy and cold at that nest in the next 48 - - glad there are no eggs in there yet!

xo ♥

magpie said...

I liked your photo of the fire truck , Wanda....(I can find out who that cute driver was! )
(don't let the captain see this email ! ☺

magpie said...

I sure hope Jim and Anne-Marie are not in area affected by the awful rains in California.

I Hear Eagles at Maine....

Costume Lady said...

Yes, Margy, the driver was very cute...young enough to be my grandson;) Gene said he thought the truck was from the VA Center. It came from that direction. Heard one coming from Shepherdstown, too. Could have been police or fire chief.

magpie said...

Yes, Wanda, Engine 82 is from the VA Center...they run that area with Baker Heights, and sometimes Shepherdstown Fire Department will get called to run also, and Engine 90 - the Office of Emergency Services .. the latter gets dispatched on ALL fire calls.

Costume Lady said...

I don't think Jim was on at all yesterday?? He at least, comes on to say goodnight...he may have the bug that has been going around. Anne-Marie pops in every once in awhile. She's busier now than when she was working.

Costume Lady said...

I just noticed that the STILL cam time is right on with real time. It had been running about 10 minutes ahead of time. Don't know what that means, but, there, you have it:)

Costume Lady said...

Time to turn the furnace up and coffee pot on.
BBS

NatureNut said...

Came up from wrapping on pool table for coffee! Fubby let kitties downstairs!!!I really need their help!
No eagles yet--pretty dark here.
There may be ice in evening--hope none on beltway at 6:30PM when I am going to other party!!!Guess what will be will be!(Think Doris Day sang that tune!)

magpie said...

When you see those rainbow lines at the top of the still cam, Wanda, that means we are kaput for now..

Okay Loretta, let's join prayers because snow and ice are really going to mess a few things up for last birthday visit for Grandson and his Ma....she leaves to return to Florida late Wednesday night, and his birthday is Wednesday so they are planning one more Special Visit ♥

magpie said...

Two Eagles at BWO - - looking kinda soggy already

magpie said...

And squawking big time! One other time, they did that, and mated immediately thereafter ! ☺ ♥

magpie said...

How nice of Fubby to send the Cats down to help, Loretta! ☺

magpie said...

Nice hungry red squirrel at Scottish Wildlife

Costume Lady said...

Our weather alert has changed from 6am this morning to 6pm this evening. You may be alright for a few hours, Loretta, but keep an eye out on the roads.

Costume Lady said...

Glad the alert has been moved to this evening, cause the Capt. is shopping for my Christmas present today!;)

magpie said...

The Eagles at BWO look Grouchy!

And I don't know what that "thing" is in the grass at RDHC but it is yucky looking!

Good, Wanda....are you thinking, Lap Top by any chance ??

Just don't let him get you a vacuum cleaner with dual bags!
(that was a yahoo from Geula...you might not have been able to view that one....)
xo

NatureNut said...

Think Live cam IS kapoot---should be lighter out now.

magpie said...

Yep Loretta...kaput and kaplooie...those rainbow lines are a "dead" giveaway on the still cam, and the same spidey strand has been flopping in the breeze since 4:30...:(
Guess we better tell Steve...

magpie said...

I'm going back to bed for a little while...maybe things will look better when I get back up.

I keep thinking the Eagles will land at Maine...I can still hear them, but no action!

Be careful everyone, have a good day!

xo

Mits said...

GOOD A.M. EVERYONE....

Mits said...

Wanda, time on still cam has been working for awile now.

glo said...

Good morning everyone. No cam and weather stuff to deal with yesterday today and by Thursday here...oh well one day at a time. Right now off to coffee and dog treats. Then groceries and mail off a few cards. Not sure I can even get to the river but I might have to try.

Enjoy your day. Hope the cam is on when I get home to hibernate.

Costume Lady said...

Good Morning, Helen and Glo. It is 38° and light mist here. Looks like not weather concerns until this evening.

Mits said...

NORFOLK EAGLE CAM IS UP AND RUNNING.;)

ceil said...

Que sera sera. Morning all

Mits said...

NORFOLK CAM

Mits said...

NatureNut said...

Just checking for birdies :(
Megan you are TOO COOL---you found it!
Were 2 eagles at BWO, some turkeys at PA, squirrels at Snowman Cam.
I've gotta check Ecuador---should be bright & cheery before I finish wrapping 2 more for the UPS box!

ceil said...

Helen you sure do find some interesting articles. Spider story was amazing. Off to do errands before it gets too bad. Got a little shopping done for my neighbor. She has 3 grandchildren and gives them money but always gives them a little gift. BBL

NatureNut said...

Uh Oh!! Fooling around at BWO ☺

ceil said...

Mits you know I can't sing. Blog would be shut down.

floralgirl said...

Oh, cool, Norfolk cam is back up, thanks, MIts.. but I'm gonna get seasick..

NatureNut said...

Maybe that's fighting w/food?! BW

Red said...

I see what you mean Megan. Sure is windy there.

Mits said...

I can't watch it, til it calms down a bit....

normabyrd said...

Red said...

Looks like our cam site is completely down now. Can't even see the broke cam.

paula eagleholic said...

Morning, all.

I can't even get our page up...

paula eagleholic said...

2 eagles at BWO

Mits said...

they might be working on re-setting it, I had e-mailed Steve about it

Costume Lady said...

I'm having problems too, Paula.

paula eagleholic said...

Sure nice to see Norfolk on...

Red said...

Nice snowman Paula.

Mits said...

turkeys in PA

Mits said...

he's a keeper, Paula:)

Costume Lady said...

I can't get a video on Norfolk, anyone else having that problem?

Red said...

Norfolk is working for me.

Costume Lady said...

Not a video...a live shot.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good eagle morning everybody. Wanda, my Norfolk cam is working okay.

Red said...

I'm heading to town now to the barber. Gotta get this fuzz off my neck. If rains stop I'll do some shopping too. If not I'll be home sooner. lol

Mits said...

Norfolk fine here,

Mits said...

our cam page is back up, but with interference

Costume Lady said...

Still just a black screen for me at Norfolk???
Our cam is just about ready for action.

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' PAULA---(love your SANTA)-----MORNIN' SHARON!--Read you are back at work!!---so COOL!----Can't wait to hear from SISSY!!!

floralgirl said...

MY Norfolk cam works, just too much movement for me....weak stomach...
Well, crud, was planning on hibernating today and decorating baking cookies, but MIL just came over and is panicking cause she was headed to town and now is afraid to drive in the weather, but needs to go to the bank...sleeting on and off here now, but the ground is still warm and the temp is 34°..SO I shall reluctantly put the butter and eggs back in the fridge and head out for a little, consider this my good deed for the week...hope the cam is fixed soon..

paula eagleholic said...

My cam is up working now...but not sure if it's live or if it's Memorex :):)

Mits said...

your a good d-i-l, Megan:)

normabyrd said...

MEGAN!!----I can see your 'HALO' shining all the way to my house!!---You are the kind of neighbor I wish lived next door to me!!-----COOL!

deb said...

Two eagles at BWE!

deb said...

Good morning everyone. The snows is coming down here. I had to go rescue one dog this am, the snow gets in their paws and freezes and then they don't want to walk anymore. I have to run out and get them and clean out their paws.

Bonaire is working this morning!

paula eagleholic said...

I think it's Memorex :)

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning!
WOW I am up early enough to see the Gobblers in the PA woods and the BWE in the nest! Keeping an eye on this weather - expecting a daughter to visit but hope she calls first.
Didn't read all emails - just came right over here this am!

I hope all is well and I will now read to see what has been going on this am.
I can see our nest - still cam isn't too bad if it is updating.

deb said...

Divers at Bonaire

deb said...

You can only see their legs so far, but maybe they will drop down.

deb said...

No, maybe they were snorklering instead of diving.

deb said...

snokerling, what kind of word is that. Off to feed the birds. BBL

normabyrd said...

BW---BEAUTIFUL EAGLE

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' DEB!!---I have been watching for the DIVERS!!---CURSES!---Missed them!!

magpie said...

Oh, thanks for the Blue Link to Norfolk, MITS -
Oh, yes, Nausea City for sure!
Eagle at BWE looks great and busy...
Well, we had sleet here for a little bit...I like the update that maybe Wednesday won't be so awful after all.

So, do you think we are up? The rainbow lines on the still cam is throwing me off...thought that meant we were not up there on that... ?? Okay, experts, help me out....

Good to "see" everyone.

Mits said...

that cam at BWE is money:)

magpie said...

Beautiful sunrise at Lake Washington...☺

normabyrd said...

'LITTLE PRINCE XI' is SLEEPING again!!---Don't think I have seen him awake for weeks!!!---Wonder what makes the red-brown ring around his neck!!----LUN LUN???

magpie said...

Megan - Ceil :

So very special that you can help out those in need. You are early Santa Clauses ! Or, special Elves !! xo ♥

And I know there are a bunch of you out there doing the same.

God Bless Us, Every One.
xo ♥

magpie said...

Couple of Mooses at the cam...snowy looking there...

Mema Jo said...

Company has arrived along with extra large snowflakes coming down!
Beautiful out there right now!

BBL

magpie said...

Time to make ready to brave the weather, my 91 year old shopping buddy is on the schedule this morning. She's close by and so is the store...and the sleet has quit!

Norma: Please keep all the cold stuff on the other side of Romney for a couple of days...please?

See you folks later. xox ♥

paula eagleholic said...

Margy - our cam isn't working....just looks like it!!

paula eagleholic said...

We need more sun!!

deb said...

Birds are fed, it doesn't feel that cold out today, will have to check the temp.

Lolly said...

Morning all! 26 here but no ice, thank goodness. Laurel is an hour north and she got a little last night, but apparently not enough to close things down. Gotta get Jack to get the fire built, time to start baking.

Deb, you left your freezer door open...I feel it down here. LOL

Wanda, I am concerned about you and that cute young fireman. LOL I once had my purse stolen in Portugal. The young policeman was sooooo cute. Then we had to go to the American Embassy and the guard there was soooo cute. Man, they turned a bad experience into a cool memory. LOL

Thanks Mits for the blue link to Norfolk. I now have it added to this cool new laptop. I am loving it! I have not even touched the paper this morning.

deb said...

Lolly, it is warming up here, we are above zero!!

DIVER, Norma!

normabyrd said...

OH MARGY!!--The "WINTERY MIX" has started here---Must trudge out & fill the feeders----Darn squirrels cleaned them out this am!!!---
LATER---

Mits said...

they have changed the cam view at Lake Washington eagle nest.

Mits said...

it is beautiful, you can see the water and town nearby:)

deb said...

The view at LW seems like the color is so much better, too!

Mits said...

I am really loving it

hedgie said...

Morning all. Mixed bag of sleet and snow here...yuk! After those spoiler 60+°'s yesterday...bummer. Just heard they ae closing schools 2 hrs. early.
Norfolk cam is a mover and shaker...it doesn't look close enough to nest to really show much...is it zoomable??

Mits said...

now if they could just get Kent going:)

Mits said...

Lynn, I think they might tinker with it some more, it just came up this a.m.

hedgie said...

Glo, your dancing eagle show was great!! And that beautiful pic of the eagle above was a gem!
Megan, Margy and Ceil...you are so good to your in-law/neighbors!! Halos for sure.
Lolly, I haven't finished the paper, either....getting ready to get a fire started, since guy came last pm and got my new pile of wood split and stacked. I was out of anything that I could handle.

hedgie said...

Not sure whether I have a link to Lake Washington or not....can someone please post??

hedgie said...

Snow is really coming down!! Better than ICE....
BBIALW....gotta make a phone call.

Mema Jo said...

Just popping in and right back out BUT
I didn't know they changed the LW view
IT is GREAT!.
BBL

Costume Lady said...

Thanks, Deb...I was looking for that too:)

Costume Lady said...

What a beautiful, sturdy nest in Lake Washington!

Lolly said...

Yeah, Deb, you are having a regular heat wave.

Now I need a link to the diver cam.

Have finished the paper. Had a good cartoon. I am going to scan it and send it around.

Jack is in on our computer and I am sitting here in my recliner. Oh, life is rough! I really do need to go start baking as it will take all day. Dough has to rise twice. I will be making 8 coffee cakes. They are so yummy. It is our traditional Christmas morning breakfast. I also freeze 6 of them to have during the year. Have been making them for almost 50 years. Yikes! Learned to make them in home ec in high school.

deb said...

Divers

hedgie said...

Thanks, Deb! When I went to save it as a favorite, it said I already had it! Just overwrote, so now I hopefully can find it easier!
Lolly, my grams' cinnamon roll recipe is my responsibility....I've been doing it for the last 25 years...my youngest has been helping for the last few, tho' looks like I'll be on my own this year as she has to work. It also has to raise twice. I make about 15 pans of rolls....everyone wants some to take home, and I even still give the girls some to take to their dad. It was always the traditional Christmas morning breakfast, along w/ sausage and grapefruit.

paula eagleholic said...

Love seeing the Bonaire cam back on :)

Lolly said...

Thanks Deb! That cam is just beautiful!

Okay, I am really going to leave. I can not sit here all day, but I sure would love to. BBL

I wish a happy, warm cozy day for all you!

normabyrd said...

DEB!---I sit here & wait for the DIVERS---soon as I go off---You yell---DIVERS!!----ho!---I love that site!!--

deb said...

Norma, check your mail!

normabyrd said...

HEY LOLLY!!---Did you watch DALLAS Sun. night?----COOL!!---

normabyrd said...

BERKELEY---MORGAN & FREDERICK CO. SCHOOLS ARE CLOSING EARLY!!

Geula said...

hi.....I've been trying forever to get in!

Geula said...

Apparently, whatever I did worked......like changing my password twice and kicking the computer a few times...Good to be here!

I hope that you are all well!

normabyrd said...

HELLO GEULA!!---Good to hear from you!!---Don't KICK too hard!!---You might break a toe!!---HEY!---What's happening with your DONKEYS?----We haven't seen ours for a couple of days!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Hi Geula!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Geula, so good to hear from you!! How are you?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

We have missed you!! How are things in Israel??

hedgie said...

Hi, Geula! How is everything in your corner of the world??

normabyrd said...

PAULA---Could you please send me the XMAS ADDRESS LIST?----Please!--I will owe you BIG TIME!!---norma--

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Our live feed is back up and it is snowing on our nest!

hedgie said...

Attention Computer Gurus.....want to change my avatar, but everytime I click on Remove Image, it just flickers and nothing else will happen. Any ideas?????

Mits said...

looks like a cam is working again, with a little precip in the nest

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Don't know if this will help or not, but try holding down your ctrl key while you click on remove image.

deb said...

Snow in the nest, nice to have both cams back up.

normabyrd said...

SHARON & DEB!!---YEP!---Still snowing here---Flakes are getting larger!!--

floralgirl said...

Mix of sleet and snow here right now, as you can see on the cam.

deb said...

They finally changed the snow prediction from 1-2" to 3-5". We had 3" at least by noon.

Costume Lady said...

Gene is out in this mess shopping for my Christmas present...hope he doesn't wreck and break it:)

indiana nesting eagles dave said...

Good Afternoon everyone;
I have been working outside and
herd a flock of sandhill cranes
about 100 count,they were flying
lower than normal so i ran inside to get my camera but when i got back out they had moved into some
low clouds i could still here them
but couldn't see them.The bad weather to the northeast has put them on the move.We had a dusting
of snow this morning but it has
stopped for now.I will keep check
to see if more fly over.

Indiana Nesting Eagles----Dave

NatureNut said...

Back from work luncheon party. Part-timers didn't have to pay. Full time paid $10!!! for lasagna, salad, garlic bread slice, cake & cookies. Not worth it!
Now 1 thing to wrap for tonight's party if we don't get ice.Post Office had NO Xmas stamps!Guess liberty bell is good all year!(at least ours are!)
See nest has snow in it, so it must be working.
Wrap & then Panda nap ☺ ☺

Costume Lady said...

Lynn, RIGHT CLICK ON THE "DLETE IMAGE" LINK ON YOUR PROFILE. SELECT OPEN AND CLICK. NOTING SHOULD HAPPEN. THEN CLICK THE DELETE IMAGE" LINK AGAIN, AND THE OPTIONS OF EITHER LOADING TO BLOGGER OR IMAGE URL SHOULD APPEAR AND STAY THERE, ALLOWING YOU TO CHANGE YOUR PICTURE

Costume Lady said...

These are instructions that Paula gave me. Hope it works for you.

Costume Lady said...

Hi, Dave. Hope they fly over again. Keep that camera ready:)

Costume Lady said...

Geula, now that you are able to get in here...come visit us more often!

Lolly said...

Dough has risen, so I just have a minute to peek in.

NORMA, yes the Cowboys were watched in this household. WOW!GO Cowboys!!!!! Especially exciting as SIL is from Long Island and a Giants fan. HO!

LYNN, sorry you are having trouble removing the avatar. I had that very same problem. I could not remove it even following Paula's instructions. I finally sent Paula my username and password and she was able to get rid of it.

Up to 29 now. Fire is doing wonders to help the dough rise. Problem is it is hard to put all 8 coffee cakes in front of the fire to rise. They have to take turns! LOL

I want a white Christmas. Somebody send me your snow. I want it to snow in NYC too, but I want to be able to come home! Yikes!

Mema Jo said...

Time for an afternoon cup of coffee & a cookie or two!
Our precipitation has stopped for now but when temps lower there will be icy conditions I'm sure. Some of the snowflakes were soooooooo large!
Daughter is safely home & panda nap has been taken......

It is Winter WonderLand!
Everyone relax & think about Christmas Love!

Mema Jo said...

Our nest is beautiful but I bet Lib & Belle don't think so..... lol

Take a look at the Moose cam - WOW!
The moose love it!

hedgie said...

Neither idea worked, Sharon and Wanda. But thanks for trying. Paula.....where are you???

hedgie said...

Lolly, I think I can smell that warm yeast aroma!!! Hey, local gals, remember driving down Winchester Ave. and smelling the baking bread at Schmidt's?

hedgie said...

My eldest worked there one summer (HOT job!) after she first got married.

hedgie said...

Precip had stopped for a little while but is coming down heavy again...still snow w/ a bit of sleet mixed in. Glad the school kids are home before the "rush hour" traffic starts.

NatureNut said...

Eagle at Norfolk

NatureNut said...

VA gone, but 2 at BWO.

Red said...

Hedgie, Don't know why you want to change your Avatar cause it's a good one you have. If you want to send me your username and Password I can remove it too. But I will understand if you want to wait on paula.

deb said...

It is really snowing on the moose cam today, moose is turning white.

deb said...

Update of sorts from Cape Coral eagle cam that Judy from Maine got:


Our IT Department is working on getting a camera at the site. Technical problems have plagued many of our WildCam cameras. Please keep checking back."

Lolly said...

My other Santa I had was cute too. But I began to think it may not be cute in July. I think it had something to do with the animation. Who knows!

House does not have the wonderful smell yet....have to wait until they are baking for that. Have four made and rising, now to make four more.

Mema Jo said...

Lolly you're on your Baking Binge!

glo said...

Well I bet I missed Geula But want to say hi to her anyway.
Hedgie Glad you enjoyed the dancing eagle video. I really think the ice was melting or cracking under his talons making him jump off the ice. It was like 50 that afternoon and 6 degrees with freezing rain hours later. Crazy day for sure.

Today is beautiful I went to the grocery and post office now I can get snowed in and not worry about it. Got some younger blood and stronger muscles to work for me tonight. Expecting several inches of snow. But the really problem forecast is Thurs with an inch of ice. if that happens my guess is no power in many a place here. I want that one to be wrong so bad. I have a fireplace and gas stove but the shelter is all electric. Santa Party isFriday and we have so many kids in shelter and returning for a party. We do not need an ice storm on Thurs. mtbr. yes I know It is what it is. I don't think I will be telling the kids that though. It needs to just not happen.

deb said...

From the Kent forum and Tom Otto:

Yesterday we did a our annual Lake Washington nest maintenance climb.We adjusted and replaced the camera. The birds were back to the nest at 4:30 PST. Also the new camera has IR. Enjoy!

The Kent nest is next on the list ( early Jan?).
Tom Otto

magpie said...

Oh, Wow - I am just getting back home, getting dicey out around here!
Checking out pictures first, starting with OUR NEST - Yay! - then I will catch up on reading.
I thought Lake Washington Eagle Cam looked a little different at sunrise....thanks DEB for the updates... ! ☺

paula eagleholic said...

Cam is up...snow in nest.

Blogger cop hanging AROUND!

paula eagleholic said...

Hedgie, you have mail

magpie said...

Hedgie: I most certainly DO remember the smell of fresh baking bread from the bakery on Winchester Ave, and one time got a hot loaf, and slathered it with butter....Yum!

WANDA ! I had to do an update of Adobe to get the live view at Norfolk, took just a minute or to, and Vouila! Live Action, Nausea and all! ☺
xo I am so glad to be off the streets..

magpie said...

Vouila is another name for Voila! Just a little misspelled...Hedgie is going to get me for this !!

hedgie said...

Thanks, Red. You have email!

magpie said...

GLO :
If I could have a prayer answered right about now, it would be to have the temperatures rise and keep the roads from getting nasty...so I sure hope the same for you! I would give up anything regarding Christmas plans for it right about now....

AND GLO I bet you can still run circles around anyone else that works at the shelter, younger stronger or fresher notwithstanding, especially if Dex is with you ! ☺

deb said...

The snow is done and I need to get out and clean it off. Sidewalk is done, my neighbor must have done it!

Red said...

Hedgie, I neve got email. Did you use wigleyb36@mchsi.com

magpie said...

DEB : It might have been one of Santa's Elves !

Paula, like your new snowman, but I sure liked the other one too...

Hedgie, I have always like yours, too, but if you want to change it, well, I guess I will have to just get over it ! ☺

magpie said...

Your Avatar that is, Hedgie...

magpie said...

Imagine hearing from Geula from so far away! Technology is so comforting sometimes...even though it can be a pain in the hiney sometimes too... :(

hedgie said...

Red, I used the link on your profile......I'll try again.

hedgie said...

Red, copied and pasted it into an AOL mail this time!

hedgie said...

I know, Margy, but I just love Christmas trees and found some really nice ones to try!!! Thnx for nice card!

magpie said...

Oh Yes, before I forget!
Got some new stamps at the post office today: Great Lakes Dunes.
Here are some of the treats on there:
Red Fox, Merlin, Eastern Hognose Snake (some might not think of this as a "treat"), Common Merganser, Red Admiral Butterfly, Evening Primrose - there are 27 flora and fauna things on there....worth every penny!

hedgie said...

Margy, blogger cop ate my message that said: You make me sound like the blogger cop!!! LOL!! I make mistakes, too!!! I don't correct...I just inform...LOL!!!! ♥♥♥

magpie said...

I think my naturalist friend in New York deserves a whole page of these! He is on Lake Erie, probably iced in good right about now.... :(

hedgie said...

Just had a thought...what if no one can fix my avatar? I'll look pretty silly in July w/ a blinkin' reindeer!!!

magpie said...

That's okay Hedgie ! - now, did I spell "hiney" right ? LOL ! ☺ ♥

Lolly said...

Hey Margy....I climbed one of the Great Lakes Dunes. i don't like heights and it was scary to do, but I was determined!

hedgie said...
This comment has been removed by the author.
deb said...

That was a nice and fluffy, easy to clean off snow. Gotta like them. Margy, whoever the elf was did the whole street!

Red said...

Hedgie, you have mail.

Lolly said...

Don't worry Lynn, I am sure Paula can help you. But if it is still there in July, I will go get the high kicking Santa I had and join you. Okay!! LOL

magpie said...

Well, folks, we just had a very quick visit by an Eagle...gone now, but maybe, will come back!

magpie said...

It was that quick, by the time my Blog refreshed so I could tell you, I watched it fly off to the right...... Sigh .....

Mema Jo said...

I see Borris' Web starting off to the right of our cam.......

Watching in the background in case our eagle returns......

Costume Lady said...

I still can't get Norfolk...message tells me Internet Explorer has to shut down, then I have to reboot:(
Our beauties should be coming soon:)

magpie said...

So don't you all go taking your Panda Naps yet, as I was about to do...maybe, maybe, another visit.

Friend in New York just reported, that the Tundra Swans are still headed South, although the big flights have already moved through. They will continue to head South through January, then start returning in February..."long journey for only a month or two trip, but the only way they can survive" ..so, Megan, listen up and watch the skies for us !

Lolly said...

So when did Spidey get named Boris? It is undoubtedly a female.

hedgie said...

Wanda, sure hope that Gene got all the hints and got you a new computer (laptop??!!) for Christmas!!

hedgie said...

As you can see, Red got me fixed!!

magpie said...

Funny Lolly
I never imagined a dune as being a "height" - shows you what I don't know ! (Of course there is a lot of that!)

Wanda: did you see that I saw a fleeting image of an Eagle? I think it was Belle...

magpie said...

Lolly, thanks, but I'm okay now! Don't remember who named him Boris...maybe Jo??--it's been awhile back! Good name for something spooky and eerie!! How about Boris Karloffa? Sound more feminine? I don't even remember how he spelled his name!!

Jittery as in nervous energy, Margy? Or too much caffiene???

Railroad and cars at NCTC -

Not much in the sky to see tonite, Margy, was just out in the muck, did see a large group of robins today, looking for food.

Boris = I think Megan provided a youtube link to some sort of song about Boris the spider...was it a Beatles song. Have CRS at the moment

floralgirl said...

NO, it's a WHO song, Boris the Spider...creepy crawly..creepy crawly...

magpie said...

It was bound to happen! I was going to dig on you Hedgie about Caffiene...but I didn't get away with it! Yes, jittery as in too much caffeine (Hey, I went to Saint Joe's - they made you learn how to spell, not type maybe, but spell ! ) ☺ xo

Like your tree Hedgie

I was afraid maybe it would be too late so I was real happy to hear the Swans are still headed this way...

magpie said...

a very plaintiff sound at NCTC - maybe, could be Canada Geese...wouldn't it be something to hear the Tundra Swans at that cam??

magpie said...

Nice Buck at Pix PA - and some weird precipitation things..

magpie said...

3 deer there now...

floralgirl said...

I don't have the sound up on cam, too much interference-drives my dog nuts...

magpie said...

Loretta! Hope your evening party is more swanky than the noon time one...Some crab meat would be nice....
