normabyrd said...

Just checked BLACKWATER site!!---LISA has much info concerning EAGLES in general---Well worth reading!---At least to see the pic of the EAGLE CARTWHEEL pic!---AWESOME!----LISA IS TOPS!!!

normabyrd said...

SEA EAGLE at FINNEY!---Must be waiting for mate!!

magpie said...

normabyrd said...

NORFORK -- DARK!

magpie said...

You got your wish, Norma!

normabyrd said...

Thanks MARGY---I see 2 at FINNEYS now!!

magpie said...

Norma - I am NOT working today, but have a training class to go at 10 am.
Working on a Birthday project for my next older sibling, he turns 60 - on Jan 18 - all the sisters and one other brother are making up a presentation for him, and I am the conduit. So I am "composing" now...He is #7 of 8 kids, the one sister passed away last December so I am trying to include some things for her too...

xo ☺

magpie said...

They are emailing their things to me, and I am printing and putting into a folder. There is a Lot of Material, and it is fun to get everyone's different stories. He is a Hoot! He is the one that nicknamed me "Magpie" many years ago. ☺

normabyrd said...

MARGY---WOW!---What was it like growing up with 7 bros & sisters!!----I bet that was fun!!---Do any of them live close to you?---Sounds as if you all are going to have a BALL!!

Red said...

Good morning everyone. Are you ready for some cold temps later this week. Even North Alabama is supposed to get down to 8°. It DOES get cold here sometimes. Our record low is -11.

Paula, sound drivers are located in the system.ini file under the C:\Windows directory. Your problem is a little different from Hedgies though. She has to completely shut down or reboot to get rid of hers. I don't know why yours would do it only after the page has been up for a while.

magpie said...

BWE has two lovelies right now...
Hi REd !

magpie said...

Down to one at BWE, and two still at Finney's -

normabyrd said...

Snow & a bit foggy at ME site!!---The noises I hear aren't EAGLES?---these sounds are coming from humans!---pounding, etc.?

magpie said...

Norma It was a good life with all us kids. I am the youngest, seven still survive, the sister that died last year was here in Berkeley County. Others are in Frostburg, (the birthday boy), Annandale, Baltimore, Connecticut, Roanoke, and Massachusetts...

magpie said...

Turkey at Pix PA. Where there is one, there should be more...soon

magpie said...

Looks like a gobbler, I see a beard.

Red said...

Norma, I still cannot get to the Finneys page. I called my provider and its a problem with their Internet feed. They tried it and cannot get there either so they are working on it. MTBR

magpie said...

Not fun, Red, can you see the pictures that many post on the Eaglet Page?

magpie said...

Turkey seems to be checking out the salt lick or whatever that "box" is.

normabyrd said...

"HAIL KING RED" -- We are in the teens now---so we have gotten used to the "COOL" temps!---ho!--Our forecast is single digits tomorrow!!---You will have to throw another log on!!!----Now I really ENVY DEB!---Basking in that warm CA weather!!---

magpie said...

I cannot figure out what MTBR is, Red, have seen others use it but I am stymied.

Red said...

More To Be Revealed, Margy.

magpie said...

Cam sound is doing its daylight thing, going quiet
One bird back at BWE

magpie said...

Okay, thanks Red!

magpie said...

It is kind of windy at NCTC - got sound back now for...awhile.
Okay, back to my "book."
TTFN

Red said...

I could see the Finneys site until about two weeks ago. Guess the Internet blew a circuit nearby. lol

magpie said...

One just left Finney's -

magpie said...

and more Toms at Pix.

normabyrd said...

SORRY RED!----I hadn't been able to get that sight for mos.---I am so enjoying it---but pray you can get it back!!---

normabyrd said...

GOOD LUCK MARGY!!

normabyrd said...

NPR forecast--eastern panhandle---high in 40s today---no snow today!
(we will see)

hedgie said...

Morning, birders!
Norma, the pounding at ME has been going on for a couple of months...they must be building a house or something!
Red, good to hear the your provider is willing to work on your problem. There are many good pics on the yahoo Momsters album site if you need a gandering!
I think your temp will be colder than ours tomorrow...they are saying around 10° here!
Loved the update posted yesterday about Lun and Xi Lan. Still wish we had the cam!
It was nice to hear that the gorilla exhibit plans no public viewing changes despite their new baby.
Margy, sounds like you are now a desktop publisher!!! Cool!
Well, gotta get ready for early lunch meeting. See you all later!

magpie said...

Have fun Hedgie...
catch you later.

More pine sprigs at the BWE nest.
☺ they snuck them in there in the last few minutes....

magpie said...

Going to school now. :(

NatureNut said...

Good Morning Everyone! Just got our eagle fix here at the Park.(No one visible in nest this AM)Dozens of black ducks flew up from the river, which is usually a sign. Then an immature landed in a tree right by us & took off up the river.

paula eagleholic said...

Mits said...

Red said...

That warm is unusual even for LA this time of year.

Red said...

I spent one whole winter in Santa Monica which is just west of LA on the coast and I dont' believe it got much over the upper 70's all the time I was there. Of course that was 40 years ago. Guess things have warmed up since then.

Mits said...

it is Red, but they have the Santa Anna breezes right now

Red said...

One of my goals in life was to visit ever US state. 5 years ago Diane and I went to Providence RI and while there visited Conn and that was my last two. Goal reached

Red said...

I've been everywhere. lol

NatureNut said...

Eagle Alert!!

paula eagleholic said...

Sure would be nice to see a visit when the feed was smooth and not freezing all the time!! :(

NatureNut said...

Poof...

paula eagleholic said...

I think they are both gone now according to the 30 second cam...

Mits said...

was on the phone and missed the visit.....that is wonderful, Red all 50 states....

Mits said...

NBG is back online:)

Indiana Nesting Eagles----Dave

Mits said...

Dave ,they have been doing some kind of building around the nest the last few months....hear people talking and lots of hammering at times

paula eagleholic said...

I heard people at ME were ^&*$*@#$ this morning!

indiana nesting eagles dave said...

eagles away.I can here the eagles
calling in the background. I have
the nest site up and can here them
as i am typing this.

Dave

Mits said...

indiana nesting eagles dave said...

language.It sounds like the eagles
are close to the camera,

Dave

Mits said...

I hope not either, Dave, think they might be used to the noise by now...at least I hope;)

Red said...

Both eagles at BWE.

wvgal_dana said...

Good Afternoon Everyone !

Loretta read where you got to see a juvie neat.

Hedgie is out now but so glad to hear. Her back is getting some treatment.

I called up to Maine when we first began. Hearing all that building. Lady said she hadn't been out to nest recently. Although she knew from a storm they were chopping up trees that fell. I told her we heard people talking and it sounds like they are building a house. Oh no she said. Now I'm stil wondering if she really knows what is going on near the eagles nest?

movin said...



*** GOOD MORN ***

*** TO ALL OF YOU ***


Boy, it's already 79° this morning, and that's the published high for today!!

The report and the facts are not often on the same page lately.

...the lows have supposed to have been around 50°. but they never fell much below 70. I wonder if their equipment is faulty or if they are reporting the wrong town!!??

It's still the d...n desert winds, and it's still going to hotter than h..l. "But it's a dry heat."

Oh yes, I am in a great mood this morning. [:~D]

Lolly said...

Eagle still at BWO.

I'm back! Have read the paper, completed my sudoku puzzle and mostly finished the crossword puzzle. Morning brain stimulation....really not working. ha!

Lolly said...

Morning, Jim! Glad to see your bright sun shiney disposition this morning! I have two minutes to go...still morning here.

Lolly said...

It is presently 43 here with bright blue skies and sun shine, and just a little breeze. Enough to keep Jack from burningt the leaves.

floralgirl said...

Well, geez it's 47 here right now, and that's a heat wave compared to the temps we will be having starting tomorrow. So far Jim wins the prize for desirable temps... maybe I should be heading to CA... Back out, trying to get some outside chores done today before it gets unbearably cold...daughter wants snow and I just want Spring.

Lolly said...

Megan, I did some work outside yesterday. Cut back my daisies, Jack was raking and blowing. He cut back all the fern as well. Soon as we get all the leaves taken care of we are going to enlarge one island (trees and English ivy) and put stone around another flower bed. Also, want to enrich the soil there.

Lolly said...

Eagle at NBG!

paula eagleholic said...

2 eagles BWE

Mits said...

he likes that part of the branch, Lolly

Lolly said...

poof! Poof!

Lolly said...

the ealge was on the nest when I first go on and then it flew to the branch. LOL I thought it was flying closer to me1

Lolly said...

Okay, I am getting sleepy sitting here, Time to get up and move! Hopefully will BBL!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good afternoon, all my friends of fine feathers and fur!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, I read back just a little bit. I was supposed to go to UVA on Thursday but called and talked to the surgeon. He says to wait until next week to come as the drain is still draining too much to come out. He said they may have to adjust it a little bit next week. More will be revealed. I just know I want it out but not while it is still draining.

Donnie said...

Good Afternoon everyone.
I'm just checking in to see what going on at the Shepherdstown nest. I watched Paula's latest you tube vid's. They were really great. It looks like there is a new camera or at least a new angle at NCTC. New web site looks good also.
Did they put in a heater for Lib & Belle? They might need one over the next few days. Gonna be really cold out there. Burrr...

floralgirl said...

Hey Donnie- long time no 'see'..love the pileated woodpecker pics on your blog, such a gorgeous bird.

paula eagleholic said...

Howdy Donnie...long time no see!

Glad to see ya hear...I think Lib and Belle need a heater for sure!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hello Donnie!!
