hi Steve Thanks for the new thread. Will go get the folks

hedgie said...

My youngest daughter and I are driving, Deb. Usually takes me 14 hrs., but she claims we can do it in 12.....right!! Avoiding rush hour traffic at Indianapolis and St. Louis is the only way to make it that fast, and that means leaving at midnight, which we can't do because she worked a 12 until 7 this am and needs to sleep and get ready...kids always wait til the last miute for that!

hedgie said...

Hi, Glo! How's everything w/ you? Glimpses aren't in my spam, so after I get back I will "sign-up" again and see what happens!!

Funny, I emailed a niece this morning and sent here the BWO site, told her it might be a "little while" before BWE is up and running. Voila! Somehow I missed Jim's note too..what great news this is!

Hedgie: Get Well prayers for you and pup, and Happy Traveling prayers too ! Remember us at the internet cafe and/or library: take the website addresses you need...xox

MITS Just checked ISS schedule...oh yeah! There are some very bright showings coming up! I see a few -4's in there, that's the highest magnitude I've seen so far.
Thanks!
Hope Paulleo is watching the Blog!

Watch for our celestial trio tonight again at sunset, South, South West....should be interesting to see how everything is changing positions. ☺

magpie said...

So nice to see our cams up and running again...so, the Birds have given us the slip so far today?

Hope it is a Great Evening for all...

wvgal_dana said...

I usually don't get a milkshake...but got one at Chick-fil-a. It was the Peppermint with choc. chips...wow was that ever good!!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Hedgie - have a safe trip and a great time!

paula eagleholic said...

Peppermint ice cream has been the subject around my family lately.

glo said...

Well Hedgie I am in the process of getting snowed in. But I can't get snowed in today so this could get interesting.

I skimmed back quickly for like 3 pages of the Blog. Please tell me where you are going and when you are leaving etc.
I do wish you a wonderful trip/

glo said...

Both eagles at BWE cam

glo said...

poof

NatureNut said...

Wow, didn't realize it was this late (was really working! LOL)
Guess our birds did not come by.

Lynn have a wonderful, safe trip!!!Hope you can give us an update now & then!

Mits said...

HELLO....great day at the zoo, all the animals out on the Asian Trail, and no people:)

Mits said...

have a safe trip, Lynn:)

NatureNut said...

Just went out & saw the celestrial trio! The 2 planets are further away from the moon tonight.

paula eagleholic said...

Hey our cam is still on!

Mits said...

so nice to see BWE up and running.

paula eagleholic said...

Cool that BWE eagles were in!

Mits said...

beautiful male and female on OKIE cam, they like coming in at the end of the day

hedgie said...

THanks for missing me, Dana!! No, it was me and peppermint!!! Love it! But not crazy about Chick-fil-a!
Thanks, Paula and Loretta. Just hope the weather holds!
Glo, leaving in the morning for Warrenton, Mo...about 70 mi. NW of St. Louis. Mom and sis/b-i-l live about six miles from each other.

Mits said...

moose on the moose cam.

glo said...

Well then that shoul dput you about 3 1/2 hours from me. Let me know if you want contact info to see some eagles and meet up. From me you can get on 74 east and head right back over to 70 east. Do have a great trip.

Mits said...

Luney is strecthed out on his back....lazy boy:)

Mits said...

he sleeps with his mouth open....hmmm reminds me of someone

Mema Jo said...

Back home and have rested eyes. Well the one was numb so it rested all by itself.
I have your number Lynn - not sure when Luney's official name will be announced. Maybe not until the 100th day at the ceremony.If you look at Luney now you will flip

Mema Jo said...

Dinner time

BBL

Mits said...

December 8th is 100 days, Jo

Mits said...

deer coming into view at PA, actually a buck

Mits said...

wow he ran like the wind when the raccons came on the scene, or, perhaps he heard something, racoon ran too

NatureNut said...

Getting ready to shove off from work & put stuff in car---heard a loud chorus from all the Canada geese bedding down on the pond for the night! We'll have to stay one night---would be like camping in the wilderness!!
Oh well, home to TV noise and the welcome thundering of kitty feet playing chase!!LOL ☺ ♥ ☺ ♥ ☺

hedgie said...

Thanks, Glo...would love to meet you, but momma is funny about me doing other things when I come...she thinks I should devote 100% to her...maybe another time!

paula eagleholic said...

How are the 2 kitties getting along, Loretta?

Mits said...

eagle at Caltran cam

ceil said...

Lynn hope you feel better. I know this summer when we went out to Oregon it was hard. I wanted to just go to sleep but did not want to spoil everyone else's vacation.

deb said...

Lynn, hope you have a good time. My dad is the same way when I go to California. Luckily, he knows the trip in January is for my niece's wedding, so most of the time will be for her.

Mits said...

nestorations at Caltran eagle cam

Mits said...

both eagles there now. Caltran

deb said...

Aren't they pretty! We will get a good view of the nest when there are eaglets there.

deb said...

Did you see the male grabbing her feathers?? How funny!

glo said...

oh sure Lynn I totally understand not interupting your family visit. I was thinking maybe swinging 3 hours north on your way home and heading east from here 74 to 70. With all the wildlife you get to enjoy that is a long way out of your way even for eagles especially at the end of a trip.

Get well quick and enjoy your time with family. Be safe in your travels.

Mits said...

they are pretty:)

Mits said...

love the way they pick up the same stick and move it 5 different places

Mits said...

these eagles sure do not work long.

Mits said...

she is going to change everything now

Costume Lady said...

I have finally settled down from the FREEZER FIASCO. It was delivered around 2pm. Gene placed the frozen food into the new freezer as I handed it to him. It didn't take very long with us working together. It is wonderful to be able to SEE everything in the upright freezer (can't see anything but the top layer in the chest type!) I found my long-lost Corned Beef (2 of them). They were on the very bottom. Not to worry, Lynn, they aren't 10 years old...just 1 year. Going to put them both in the Crock Pot soon.
Visited with GeeGee after work was done. She is MUCH better since we took her off Sertraline. She said she is sooo HABBY!

LYNN, have a wonderful and safe trip. Seems like everytime we go through Indianapolis, it takes two days to get through there.LOL We usually stop and shop a bit...a lot of shops that we enjoy.

Costume Lady said...

NatureNut said...

Gotta STEAK in the oven---no turkey!
Wanda, glad you could salvage your corned beef! Also glad to hear GeeGee is Habby!
Paula, cats are great. Now that I see how they play, Binky, the older one, maybe should have jhad a playmate before. She used to be wild & crazy & sometimes grab & bite us, now they do that to each other!

wvgal_dana said...

Loretta so glad you cats are getting along now. Funny how they attack us but when they have a playmate. Their attention is diverted.

Glad GeeGee is HABBY...

wvgal_dana said...

Wanda when we went to Winchester today on I 81. Seen where just before the exit for Inwood. The grass just off to the right was all tore up from that accident they had. Didn't see anything in todays paper.

wvgal_dana said...

Deer on Snowman Cam...boy not eyes for the goose and snowman has a bakers cap on lol

Costume Lady said...

Dana, our paper seldom puts things that we are concerned about on their pages. It is filled with politics, commisioners and planning committee and all sorts of things that will cost the taxpayers more money! Don't know how they win all those awards that they brag about???

Costume Lady said...

Loretta, we need more photos of your kitties. Loved those photos of Bob's new kitten, Chloe. Or was that Timmy;);)

hedgie said...

Thanks, Wanda. I'm all packed except for the last minutes cosmetics. And I am tired...cough med is making me drowsy, too. THink I'll head for a bath. BBL.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good evening friends. I just watched Christmas at Rockefeller Center and now I am going to bed. Have to leave at 7 in the morning to head back to Charlottesville. I am hoping at least 1 drain will come out tomorrow but that will probably be the only one. It is going to be great to be free of those whenever the time comes. Becky is going to take me.

I hope everyone has a wonderful peaceful and restful night.

Costume Lady said...

Prayers for a good trip and good outcome, SHARON.

Lolly said...

Nite Sharon! Know you will be happy when all drains are out. Keeping you in thought and prayer.

Jo, loved the video....until they cheered for the skins! LOL Beautiful girls! So "habby" for you that they are coming home.

Wanda!!! You are snakeless!!!! I am so "habby" for you!!!! Do you know what kind of snake it was?

We had our fall color this week and it has been wonderful, and now they are falling like crazy. Used to be that most leaves have fallen by Thanksgiving, now it goes into December. Global warming?

Going to Laurel's tomorrow. My baby is turning 36. Taking her dinner and cherry cheesecake pie. (Her request)

Then Friday going to Dallas to babysit Zach. I think Michael may tell me where we are going for my Christmas mystery trip. All I know is our flight leaves at 7 AM on the 19 and returning the 21 at 9 PM. He said "We will have 3 full days. I am still thinking NYC. We'll see!

Costume Lady said...

We are all excited for you, Lolly. What a wonderful son you have...aren't you ready to burst with pride? You know you must have done something right:)

Snake was a young black snake. EEEEWWW!

Costume Lady said...

Jo must be bursting at the seams, waiting to hold the new baby. What a sweet family....glad they can stay here and not have to go back to Germany.

Lolly said...

Yeah....we did do something right. We have two wonderful, responsible adult kiddos. Michael and attorney and Laurel a teacher. Very proud of them. And, dying of suspence, wanting to know where we are going. He has never done anything like this. But, he said, "We will have time together, Mom." WOW! DIL is always there. Now I like her....but time with Michael. WOW! I am gonna cry!

Costume Lady said...

I know what you mean, Lolly. One on one with your offspring is so very special. You don't have to divide your attention.

Lolly said...

So, how are you doing with your Christmas shopping, Wanda? I think I have the grandkids covered, just have a little more to do. Having a big dinner here next week...Thurs. When it is over I will be ready for Christmas.

hedgie said...

The way I understood it was that Patrick was going to Germany to have Christmas with his family. I didn't take it to mean that they were coming back stateside. Jo...?????

Mema Jo said...

Wanda it was a pretty darn long
Baby black snake!
Lynn is right about the return of
the grandsons from Baghdad - oh how I wish it were both of them headed for the states. Wanda, Patrick will be over in Germany for another 2 years & that is where he is headed to celebrate Christmas. I see Elizabeth & Samantha almost every day on the web cam. Elizabeth has her 1st new tooth to show her dad and also will be able to crawl towards him! Samantha is counting the days for her dad to be home!

hedgie said...

Hope you have a safe trip tomorrow, Sharon and get a drain out!! G'Night.

Mema Jo said...

The Retina Specialist said that the 1st shot I received is showing some improvement - Received the 2nd shot today. I'll go back in 6 weeks to be evaluated and possibly a 3rd shot.

Mema Jo said...

Puppy cam has 2 humans in the pen

Mema Jo said...

Each puppy is getting a very good
rub down!

hedgie said...

Jo, guess I've missed something....what is wrong with your retina, dear friend? I thouoght you were dealing w/ something like glaucoma or cataracts!!!

deb said...

Here is a follow-up story on the pelican that was rescued in the Quad Cities that Glo talked about awhile ago.

Rescued Pelican

hedgie said...

Lolly, if I were you, I'd be so excited about this surprise trip that I wouldn't be able to sleep!!! It does sound like NY...and it's such a special place to be at Christmastime.
I would like to go to Gatlinburg, TN at this time of year...it's supposed to be cool, too.

Costume Lady said...

Jo, I'm glad the shot has helped improve your condition. Sounds like it was caught in time.

Now, enlighten me about which young man is coming home. Ryan or Patrick. Which one is the father of the two grandchildren?

Mema Jo said...

Lynn - I have the condition known as
AMD Age Macular Degeneration. It was
picked up by my optometrist & she sent me to the specialist. Most people don't realize they have it until the start to lose their center vision. In other words a blind spot or blurry vision in the center of something where you are looking.

Costume Lady said...

I am going to take my leave now. The events of the day has set me up for a good night's sleep. See you all in the morning.

NITE ALL
PRAYERS

Mema Jo said...

Wanda: SSG Ryan (unmarried) is coming to Ft Stewart for 1 yr training and then to Ft Benning for, we hope, at least 3 years as a Drill SSG. His home is Catonsville - daughter Susan is his mom.

SGT Patrick is the father of 2 beautiful girls - Samantha 7 yrs &
Elizabeth 6 mos. My granddaughter Christine is Patrick's wife & mother of his children MY GREAT GRANDDAUGHTER! They are stationed in Bamberg, Germany - be there another 2 years. Patrick is just on R&R Leave over Christmas. Samantha's b-day is Christmas Eve.

Mema Jo said...

Our Panda Boy is really growing.

I've had a busy day...
Time to close down...

Good Night everyone
Peaceful sleep and pleasant dreams
Prayers for all our blessings and all our needs...
((((hugs)))) ♥

hedgie said...

Jo, glad that the injections are helping. Have known several people w/ macular degeneration...years ago...when there was no treatment.
Smart optometrist (like my grandpa!) to pick up on it.
Got a long day ahead of me, so I'm turning in. Will miss you all terribly! Even if I find a puter to log-on to, I won't have time to read through all the comments...boo...or look at cams!
All be safe. Love to each of you.

paula eagleholic said...

Have a great time, Lynn.

gnite, all

Hugs to everyone

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Good morning eagle friends!! Waiting on an early morning visitor this morning, none yet though.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Spidey needs to get his house out of the way.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Our visitor is here!!!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Can only see the tail right now. Don't know who it is.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING, SISSY...
Spidey needs to get his house in order, because he will be evicted soon as that bucket truck is deployed :)

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

I think both are there now. Darn spidey!!!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Yep, it is both of them. Can't get a good pic of them though.

Costume Lady said...

It seems like Spidey's web is extra big this morning.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Good morning Wanda!!

Costume Lady said...

Belle is moving around like she may be doing nestorations. Can't see her head.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

I like the zoom thing on this new live feed. But I can't save an image, don't know how or if you can.

Costume Lady said...

I think she is gone now.
Sissy, you have to bring up the "still cam" and then SAVE AS.

Costume Lady said...

One is still there...picture is getting a little better.

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Everyone

They both are still there!

Red said...

Goodmorning Sissy and Wanda. I see we still have a visitor.

Costume Lady said...

Morning Dana...it looks like Lib hunkered down in the bowl...trying it on for size, maybe;)

wvgal_dana said...

Thought one was still in the back..but don't think so. By zooming in and moving around. Don't think that is feeties.

Red said...

Good morning Dana. You sneaked in on me. lol

wvgal_dana said...

I don't have sound but got a great picture!

Costume Lady said...

Must be Belle, doesn't look like Lib's feetsies.

Red said...

Well the third thing to break did it this morning. The coffee pot died. Luckly we still had an old one and dug it out. Could not survive without my coffee.

Costume Lady said...

Good Morning, Red...beautiful sight, isn't it?

wvgal_dana said...

Of our nest..I got the still cam up, the live I have up plus I have up the zoomed in.

Belle just flew back in wow!!!!!

Costume Lady said...

Costume Lady said...

Dana, did you get to see Paula's video of Belle placing that big, long branch in the nest? That one is a keeper!

Costume Lady said...

Empty nest again.

Costume Lady said...

BBL.

wvgal_dana said...

Wanda when you get back....Yes thank you I did...wasn't it something...I loved all the comments about it too...that stick to the nest was like getting a load of firewood for us lol

wvgal_dana said...

Sorry Red glad you still had the old one. You said you was wondering what the 3rd thing would be. I can't remember....what was the 2nd thing?

wvgal_dana said...

Nest Update

12/03/08:
Note: The Eagle Cam is now live.

Also, we've seen eagles mating on the Osprey Cam platform,
although it's too early for eggs

wvgal_dana said...

Pic of eagles mating is on the BWO site. I know someone from our group made the mating comment. Also could have sent picture to Lisa.

The two deletes are mine. I was talking about the Maine Cam.

Red said...

Dana, my three things were,
1.Dishwasher.
2 Garage door.
3.Now the coffee pot.
At least they are getting cheaper. lol

Also had to chase down the garbage truck this morning. They decided to come early and my trash can was not at the street.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

How is everyone out in eagle land this morning?

Mits said...

Good morning everyone...love the panda , Sissy

Red said...

Hi Sissy. Love your Christmas Panda.

Red said...

Good morning Helen. :)

Mits said...

hey there, Red:)

Mits said...

2 eagles BWO

Red said...

Our two were here earlier making more nestorations. Also I see they have the photo posted on the Osprey cam page of the BW pair mating

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Thank you, thank you very much!!

Sharon and Becky are headed to Charlottesville this morning. Hope the weather stays okay till they can get back home this evening and I really hope they can take some of those drains off of Sher. They are the most miserable part of all this now.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

OMG!! Red, I really love yours. Where did you find that?

grannyblt said...

Morning all. Rainy day here in PA....snow mix predicted for later.
This morning I have seen turkeys in PA, eagles at BWO and heard lots of crows in windy ME. I also heard a new sound at ME that sounded at first like a person sayin "hey", but then realized it must have been some kind of duck? or other animal. Does that sound like anything that any of you recognize?
I have a busy day ahead will check in later. You all be good !!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Luney is trying to walk through a wall.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

He is justa digging and not getting anywhere. I have done that before!!

Mits said...

Granny, people are under the nest talking all the time...you can hear constuction going on and car doors and dogs.

Mits said...

2 moose on moose cam

Red said...

Sissy, Thats from an advertisement for Christmas cards. Think I might buy some of those.

Mits said...

outside shot at Atlanta

Mits said...

Red, what happened to your pretty tree!!!

Red said...

Still got it Mits. Just need a change sometimes.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

I have looked everywhere for eagle or panda Christmas cards. Would you mind sharing with me what company the ad is for?

paula eagleholic said...

Morning, all.

Missed our pair, but glad they were here this morning!

I hear ya on the coffee, Red. My carafe broke awhile ago...and until I found a replacement, I had to resort to my "camping one-cupper". Did the job, though!

Mits said...

Sissy, just go on the NZ web site to their store, panda cards there, also I'll send you some sites thru e-mail.

Red said...

Eagle Christmas Cards

Mits said...

Sissy, you have mail, sent you 3 sites:)

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Thanks Mits and Red.

Mits said...

odd, Goggle is telling me that the live feed and still image of our cam is broken.

Red said...

Sissy, you can Google Eagle or Panda Christmas cards. There are several out there.

Mits said...

goggle has straightened out the connection

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

I bet Luney feels like he is in a jungle in all that bamboo!!

Mits said...

eagle at BWE

Mits said...

might be the male...looks small

Mits said...

both are at BWE now

Mits said...

maybe eating???

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Did ya'll see Luney? He took several steps. He can get a grip in the bamboo better than the bare floor. WOW!!!☺☺☻☻♥♥

Mits said...

Could be eating a small bird

movin said...



***GOOD mORNING***

***EVERYONE***


How are you this fine morn??



C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

Red said...

I hope they adjust the BWE cam a bit when they get up there. Can't see all the nest right now.

deb said...

Good morning, everyone. Two eagles at BWE is a great way to start up the computer!

paula eagleholic said...

2 eagles at BWE

paula eagleholic said...

Doesn't look like a fish

movin said...

For some reason beakspeak isn't working for me this morning, but the old independent link I have from last year brought me straight to the blog.

I noticed that Lil Luney is getting stronger at the crawling by the minute, Sissy; but I completely missed the steps.


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

paula eagleholic said...

REd - I think they will. I think the juvies knocked it around last season

Hmmm, possum maybe? Look at the tail?

No, I think that's grass inthe nest...

And it does look like bird feet now.

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning Eagleland Friends

Hair cut day for me - Shaggy Dog!

I see 3 moose on the cam & it looks as though they are getting snow covered

Mits said...

guess there is no way of knowing if this is the pair from last year, as Suz just said hope if it is the male has matured

Mits said...

THURSDAY UPDATE FROM ATLANTA

Thursday, December 4
You have waited 97 days to find out Lun Lun’s second cub’s name. We will only have to refer to him as “the cub” for three more days. On Monday, when he is 100 days old, we will find out which of the 12 names has been selected through the voting process. His name will be revealed at approximately 11:30 a.m. at Zoo Atlanta in the Grand Patio. This event is open to all Zoo visitors. The 100 Day Naming Celebration will include live performances by Chinese artists, refreshments, and an appearance by Zhu Zhu, Zoo Atlanta’s giant panda mascot.

During the cub’s first three months his eyes have opened; his fur has come in; his black markings have developed; teeth have erupted; and he has learned to scoot around. Now we will all look forward to him mastering walking, running, climbing, and, most importantly, going out in his habitat soon, so that you can see him when you visit the Zoo.

I second that Red for the tree climber to adjust the cam.... I remember also that it was the juvies last year who moved it.

I don't know if you saw it, but there is a short update on Buddy today:

UPDATE: December 3, 2008
by Dr. Dave McRuer, Director of Veterinary Medicine at the Wildlife Center of Virginia

I had a look at 887 yesterday, and we have elected to do nothing with the beak at this time. We will likely be doing a more extensive dremmeling in two to three weeks.

Judging by; the tail on it and the fur, I think our BW eagle is enjoying a breakfast of Possum this morning.

If she would move we could see what's being eaten!

Both at BWE now

paula eagleholic said...

That might be him eating. Second eagle looks bigger!

movin said...

On the other hand, the 'tail' might have been a stick, and the 'fur' might have been dark feathers....

The semicolon in the previous was a typo.

could be rat but have never seen an eagle eat a rat. Guess I haven't seen them eat a possum either. possum would be hard to lift.

Well, now I can say I have seen it all. We live in the city limits of Bluefield. There are woods on one side and the back of our house. Tom just looked out there and there are about 20 goats in the woods behind my house. Now that is wildlife I have never had in my yard before. What a hoot!!!

Sharon just got to Charlottesville. Will let ya'll know what they do when I know.

movin said...

You have feral goats in your area, Sissy!?? They can be very damaging to the ecology.

They were introduced by the Spanish onto our Channel Islands as a food source for their navy ... Hawaii too, I believe. They multiplied to such a level and caused so much destruction that the States had to hunt and trap them out as much as they possibly could.

By the way, goats are very edible.
