Tomorrow I will probably go to Chattanooga to visit my brother who is having blood clot peoblems in his legs. About 2.5 hours each way. This is his third problem with clots. Don't know how serious it is yet but he might need some prayers
I changed my preferences on the eaglet momsters site- I could never see the pictures on that site in anyones posts. But-I changed it so they come to my email and I can see the pics. I know someone else had that isuue too.
A lot of prayers and maybe a blood thinner hopefully will get him back
to good health.
Take care in your travels, Red.
What preference did you cancel & which one did you choose?
I changed it so the posts would come into my mailbox, I was just trying to look at them on the site.
Thanks for the reminder, Jo.
Glad to hear the good news about your eye!
I think it might have been Lolly that had that same issue...but we changed whomever it was to individual emails, but they still couldn't see the pics...I told them to check with their email provider.
Safe travels, Red:)
Gotcha Megan - must remember so that when someone says no pics coming through emails - I'll be able to say
Go Talk To Megan!
Looks like pretty large snow flakes in the PA woods.......
Paula did you walk the dogs earlier?
Hopefully they don't like the frigid temps!
Yea, the emails on the group site don't have pics...
Winging good thoughts your brother's way, Red. Safe travels.
Yup, walked the dogs tonight. Cold, but not windy.
Prayers for a good outcome for your brother Red
Check in as soon as you can...
Eyeballs back to normal, Mema ?
Yepper - Are you back to normal - did you eat much yet?
I have enlarged the print on the blog so not to strain my vision......
Wish we would hear from DEB
Wish we would hear from WANDA
Headed out to watch some news just in case I missed something exciting today.
I am so THANKFUL that Geula came on & to hear she is safe! I pray that her family is.
Good Night
Peace to you & yours
Prayers for everyone's needs being said
(((hugs))) ♥
G'Night Mema.
SEE you tomorrow ! xo ♥
Margy - have you got the bug now? Hope you feel better.
Night, Jo.
I'm turning in. See you all tomorrow.
Red, have a safe trip...have they talked about putting in filters to catch the clots so they can't move to his lungs? He's added to my prayer list.
Jo, glad the eye is doing well!
Margy, get yourself to bed!
Blessings and prayers.
I think I'm headed that way myself.
gnite, all.
Hugs to all.
OMG Just made a new hot chocolate recipe for Jack and myself. It was like drinking melted chocolate. It is an Italian recipe that was published in the paper recently. It was unbelievable!!! Oh, and of coarse, no calories! ha!
Deb, where are you? We miss you!
Lolly:
You did see where Deb popped on at 1:25 this morning, right? She was in CA and reports temps of 86 degrees. Hope she can pop in again, but she did say things were going to be right busy for the next fews....
Hot chocolate sounds good, you will probably have to post it..☺
I'm not ill, just had to have a test done and couldn't eat anything much for a couple of days.
Just normal "old person" stuff.
☺
Now, to bed with the book Hedgie has loaned me, "Firefight."
Sleep well, all.
Tomorrow is another day for magic and miracles, and Eagle-Watching !
Peace, Love, and Prayers. xo ♥
Yes, I saw her post. Can not imagine a difference of 103 in temperatures. I imagine she will get on again late tonight....if so, DEB, we miss you. Have a great time!
I am heading for the shower and then bed. Nite all, sweet dreams!
**A VERY gOOD NIGHT**
**TO YOU ALL**
jIM
** Guess What ** There is snow on OUR NEST this morning **
And, you can see the snowflakes zipping past now...
...Headed back to bed now, "see" you later. ☺
Good morning Friends!! It is 19 here this morning, probably the high for today they say. Snowing, supposed to get 1-3" and school is on a 2 hour delay.
Sorry I missed ya magpie!
Good grief- coating of snow here, schools also on 2 hr delay, gonna be a headache for the high school, was to be last full day of semester, with finals in many subjects. 19 °here also...
Hey Sissy:)
And I think this is the best it is gonna be today, too Megan.
All is quiet on the home front for now. Sharon came back home last night and I am so glad. I miss her bad when she ain't around!!
Looks like PA has a whole bunch of snow and it is still coming down.
I'm back up....
I think there is an eagle in the nest at Norfolk...
Hi floralgirl and Eagle-eye's Sissy.
☺
Just the thought of Eagles showing up on our Snowy Nest makes it impossible to go back to bed now.
You're right magpie, I see that beautiful white head!
Hello Margy... I could fall back asleep so easily..
I tried to stay in bed this morning and just could not do it. Like to try to start early so I can finish early, though sometimes I start early and finish late!!
Well, my sleep schedule is kinda goofed up right now.
Did you all see the pretty stuff in the nest at Lake Washington?
Eagle at Norfolk was pretty, wonder if it spent the night on the nest? I couldn't tell.
Suzanne made it safely to work, came through some hard snow, but it quit between Thurmont and Frederick.
xo
Glad that Sharon made it back to her Roost... ☺
Two eagles at BWE this morning.
Thankd for the hot tip, Sissy, I had forgotten to open that one up!
Maine is black but it shouldn't be, but I hear noises.
Sounds pretty windy at our nest..
see some snow blowing too.
RED If you check in before leaving for Chattanooga, Safe Travels, and Prayers for your brother.
I think someone is scraping the roads at NCTC !
I sure wonder sometimes where our juveniles from last season are.
I know magpie, I was thinking about that. They say they don't go that far from their nest. Maybe they are building one of their own close by!!
Good morning everyone. I'm probably NOT going to see my brother today as I thought last night. He is feeling lousy and dosen't feel like company yet. Guess he has been battling gout too. Maybe I'll go Saturday.
Happy eagle watching.
Well, school is closed here now. Mattie will be so happy!!
Sorry to hear about your brother Red. We are praying for him to heal fast.
Okay Red. Thanks for checking in. The prayers are on anyway....
EAGLE, our nest~!!
Showtime in the Snow !
Looks like Belle to me, with breakfast maybe?
"Who put all this dust in my Nest ? "
Nope, that was Lib, this is Belle. What a treat!! Wake up everyone!! We have company.
Good Morning
Beautiful sight to see. Now 2 in nest great fly in..did you hear the sound. Maybe watch for HP.
Now at Norfolk too! Eagles everywhere this morning!
Yep, Dana you were right. Eagle love this morning.
And there we have HP and Liberty flys off to a branch.
That was Nice ♥
Beauty in the sunlight in the nest at Norfolk
Deb should be glad she is in Ca. I just checked her home town temp and it's -18 there and feels like
-31
Great shot at Norfolk this morning. Poof ours are gone.
REd:
I think you brought the Magic to our nest this morning...☺
RED sorry to hear about your brother. Added him to prayer list. Has he had any stents put in his legs?
I'm sure Belle is going to want to do something about those Big Logs in the nest before too long.
Just on NEWS: don't eat any crackers with peanut butter on that are Austin or Keebler.
Watching Norfolk nest makes me a little Whoooozy
Close up at Norfolk right now
Great shot at Norfolk again.'
What's wrong with em Dana, salmonella?
Eagle flew off nest at Norfolk but you can see its shadow from a branch close by. Forget that, cam pic changed two Eagles on branches.
Guess someone down is there is doing a MITS with the cam.
☺
That is what the news said. Although I confused because it a report I read on internet. It said it was the peanut butter sold in bulk to many places. The news says and showed the packs NOT TO EAT THEM.
Serious Eagle ♥ ♥-ing at Norfolk, cam operator brought it in close up!
On the branch...awesome !
and now one in the nest and the other on the branch - at Norfolk.
Gobbler at Pix Pa, just showed up
Wonder how much snow they have at PA? Hard to judge on the cam.
Cardinal and a snowbird with the Turkey
Berkeley County schools closed
Jefferson on 2 hrs delay
Darn, missed the eagle visit...
Whoa- they just closed Wahington county schools too. Was just waking up kid when I heard email arrive.
Missed them Margy see the turkey BIG
Morning Crispy Megan ( :
Is that bacon from Betty's resturant in Shepherdstown?
Well good Megan, now EVERYONE can have Bacon at your house !
xo ☺
tv shows Jefferson County school CLOSED
Both birds in nest at Norfolk.
So much to see this morning.
That's just Bacon for Mason!!
Hi Dana and Red-
I have fried no bacon yet this morning, had to go out and clean off 2vehicles and Gh- and feed the birds, and help hubby get out the door-he actually has a job today and we had to bring all the glue and vinyl in last nite cause it was too cold to leave it in van. Daughter said she wasn't getting out of bed til much later-so it's just me and the dog, and he said he would like bacon, but he ain't getting any!
Eagle at BWO
Megan so glad hubby has a job today..anything about unemployment yet?
HA! No, I think we may give up on that front, called a different number yesterday, actually got a person, they took some info said they would be calling right back-never did... having a one day job may mess that up- not sure...
That is definitely a catch-22 Megan. Darned if ya do and darned if ya don't.
Maybe it will lead to something really great, Megan, hope so.
Someone out there is going to recognize quality when they see it !
Hang in there. xo ♥
Exactly, Sissy:)
The thing is, it's just hit or miss anymore with the housing industry. Time to find a new more reliable career, which is easier said than done in this economy.
After Tom's last back surgery, we thought about him trying for disability but he would have to not work at all for a year or so and who can do that?
But, he is doing well now, thank God.
Here comes by Sis this morning!!
Well Megan from just knowing you and him from years on the blog. You both are not ones to sit around. I pray something will come out of this GOOD for you BOTH.
Sissy true who can not work and live without income for a whole year. System messed up on both accounts.
Good Morning Everyone. See a little snow in the nest---guess I missed the early visit.They must be lumberjacks! ☺ Our friends in Paw Paw got 3" of snow.
I'm gonna have to turn down volume--that wind is chilly!
Yeah, we are down, but not out-yet...
I love the way that Norfolk cam zooms around.
One of the turkeys at PIX PA is strutting, getting all puffed up...
☺
Loretta, you have mail. ☺
Thx Margy, got a great pic of our birds. ☺ ☺ ☺
the turkeys are really scratching that snow! Nice to see the cardinals out there with them too.
Do you have snow NatureNut?
We don't have any snow, just COLD!!!
Want to send good wishes for Red's brother & all others in need & safety for Geula. Friend of ours is traveling to Israel in Feb. I think I'd be afraid to go.
Okay, we have Cold in Common, Loretta.
Yes, it was wonderful to see Geula check in...
I'm going back to bed...bet there will be a Nest visit soon! Hope so!
TTFN xo
Funny story from Park on TU. Greg K., our naturalist called & was waterfowl hunting w/buds, south in VA. On Monday they shot a duck & an eagle came and snatched it out of the water before they could retrieve it! On Tu, they sent off some shots & the eagle appeared, so they sent some one real fast in boat to get their catch!
Bird has their number!
lol Loretta they don't know how much we would loved to have seen this happening..
I think Spidy has gotten his butt frozen off. Haven't seen him or web lately. Good riddance!
Turkeys at PA have been getting real close to cam!
GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDDIES!!---I have been trying to catch up---WHOA!!---EAGLE MOMSTERS are WONDERFUL!!---such a loving--caring clan!! --- sharing thoughts & ideas!!---It is a COLD SUNNY am here in WONDERFUL WILD WV!----"HOME OF OUR ROYAL COUPLE "BELLE & LIBERTY"!!

Good morning my sunshiny eagle buddies!
EAGLE!!
2 eagles our nest
Looks like Belle landed on Lib's head.
1 at BWE
Oh grrrr my sound keeps going and coming...I can hear our eagles.
now 2 at BWE
Test worked Sharon your reading loud and clear...your in.
Gone now.
Bev does it look like they brought in more fluff? Or did they just scatter the fluff that was there?
Birds in the nest, but not on still cam!
Guess Live cam is frozen---wish I could save a pic....
DANA---You have mail!!
Lovely seeing our eagles this morning.
LORETTA my live feed is ok. Small sticks blowing. No eagle in nest.
Loretta do you know the difference between a male and female titmouse?
I can't tell.
Ok Norma I'll check email
LISA teaches--Jefferson Co.---A student's Mother just sent a note & a pic of a wounded EAGLE that is on the loose in HARPERS FERRY!---The PARK SERVICE there is attempting to catch it-----but so far no luck!!---LISA sent the message to me with pic!---Just forwarded to DANA--to send message to all the EAGLE BUDDIES!!!---
DANA---The TUFTED TITMOUSE male has a deeper coloring----female has more of a 'washed out look'!!
Can see 1/2 eagle at Norfolk--on branch at bottom right. Move Over!!!
Norma check your email...
IMPORTANT TO ALL EAGLET_MOMSTER & DADSTERS CHECK YOUR EMAIL IN REF. TO HURT EAGLE !!!
Poof at Norfolk.
MORNIN' MARGY---SISSY---MEGAN---RED---DANA---NATURENUT & SHARON!!--
(if i missed anyone -- yell)
Good morning everyone. Been a long 2 days in my world and now that I am home even with the sun shining brightly I can't go anywhere so guess I will warm up enjoying some webcams. catch up on emails etc. Hope all are well and staying safe and warm.
Sexes are evidently very similar in the titmouse, as there's no mention in my bird guide & they don't show pics of each sex. I think the chickadees are the same way.
Good Morning Norma, Loretta and Glo.
Thanks Norma and Loretta for info on Titmouse. I think you are right about that Loretta. Cause they are so close to the window. I can't find a difference in either. Might look for a washed out look like Norma suggested.
Norma email sent around also sent to Steve Chase for you.
By the way Norma that eagle is BEAUTIFUL it is an adult. What a shame hope they can capture it and help and release.
THANKS DANA!!----I am delighted the pic of the BEAUTIFUL EAGLE came through!!----The little student told his MOM that he knew MS LONG liked EAGLES!!---ho!---(his dad works for the park service)
Tian is hoping for love at NZ.
THANKS DANA!!----I am delighted the pic of the BEAUTIFUL EAGLE came through!!----The little student told his MOM that he knew MS LONG liked EAGLES!!---ho!---(his dad works for the park service)
Sorry--I have repeated myself!!---I don't have a trash can!!
Good morning all.
Sharon you are right. Tian was doing a good job for a change, but a little to early for mating. I think he is practicing. Practice makes perfect.
Red prayers for your brother.
No problem Norma. Mine did that yesterday. Said it did not post try again and then it posted twice.
MORNIN' GLO!!---How COLD is COLD in your area???
Sissy that was you talking about Tian. I addressed my comment to Sharon. Think I better get out of here and get errands done.
He is going to be one tired panda later. He'll need a panda power nap.
***GOOD mORNING***
***EVERYBODY***
It looks like you are enjoying a "wintry mix" in the Shepherdstown area.
We are still in for the hot, dry winds and high temps; although the wind did shift to on shore (SW) for a while last evening, and the humidity rose into the 30's.
Confusing patterns.
C(°?°)3
Jim
Good mroning! Looks like I missed the visits this morning. Maybe they will be back.
29 here this morning and not going to get much warmer, but no snow or ice.
Morning Ceil--she just lays there and that poor boy is every which way.
Good Morning Jim and Lolly.
Lolly how are you doing on your work for grandsons?
I plan to spend the day working on Zach's book. It is bright sun shiney here, even though it is cold.
See that Deb did not get on last night. Must have been too tired when she hit the sack.
Good morning Norma Actual temp is -20 wind chill is close to 40 below at times. so I am pretty much in and its sunny and so pretty outside til you open the door.
It is slow work and I was having a puzzling problem with the printer yesterday, so I did not get far. Must spend today working on it.
I had told Steve when I sent Norma's email. That we know it's not ours. They were both in nest this AM.
"Steve return a message: There is a nest down river from Harpers Ferry, maybe its from there. Both of our birds were perched together last night when I left."
It is not fit for man nor beast in the midwest today. Wow working on a book sounds like a pretty fun idea. But I would rather be outside with my camera. They woul dhall me off to the funny farm roday though in fact one friend has threatened to do so if I head anywhere near a Lock and dam and she finds out hmmmm.
Jack just brought the paper in. Think I will go set up the laptop to monitor the nest as I read the paper.
Yell really loudly to get my attention if an eagle visits. :)
Have a GREAT DAY everyone and stay warm and cozy!!!
Just saw your post. Yes, thank goodness it is NOT one of our birds. I think I would get so terribly upset!!!!!!!
DANA!----I just read some more about the TUFTED TITMOUSE----They (male & female) are almost identical----used to be our state bird---I swear I think the male has a bit brighter orange coloring!!-------
MORNIN' CEIL---MOVIN'JIM & LOLLY!!----I evidently have more snow than I thought---Just heard the snow plow in driveway!!----But we have a glorious sunny day!!!
Wishing you good news at your Dr. report---JO!!---love you!-----MEGAN -- wonderful news--MASON!!---RED---keeping you & your brother in my thoughts & prayers!!---PAULA---good thoughts for your Mother!!--DANA---didn't forget ED---still sending good wishes & prayers!!!
Norma I did answer your question aobut temps here. And I have decided on my new avatar. Taken a few days ago where I wish I could go today if it would get warmer by aobut 30 degrees. Ok time for tea and donuts and find some other project to keep me busy and inside.
Enjoy your day everyone
Oh and remember the juvies trying to survive their first winter Its rough very rough and even if they do get that catch so many times it is stolen in a fight before they get it somewhere to eat it.
Dr. just called about hubby's culture. No strep. no nothing grew. They are still concerned and are putting him on the Z pack. They are afraid if anything is there and missed it could turn into bacterial infection. He still has a terrible sore throat. No fever. Sometimes chills. No better in a week. They will be looking elsewhere. Hope he gets better so they don't go looking elsewhere. Thank you ALL for prayers for him. Please continue thank you.
Is this Mei's pay back for when she won't leave Tian alone. With her playing and biting??
bbl something to eat
THANKS LOLLY for sharing your NY photos with us!!---You must have had a glorious time!!---You appear to be a young Mom enjoying every minute with her handsome son!!---
DANA!!---Does he have his appetite back yet?---Still sending my thought & prayers!!
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE.....
NATURENUT---LOVE your story about the DNR men v. EAGLE!!!---tell them they shouldn't mess with MOTHER NATURE!!! Would loved to have seen that!!!
GLO!----Your AVATAR is AWESOME!!---Can't even imagine seeing all those EAGLES!!---you & DEB are truly blessed----
Well Dana Glad Ed did not have positive strep. This years viruses seem to be really miserable kinds of things though. I hope he is behaving himself and doing his part to get well.
More chicken noodle soup is my suggestion.
OK enough blogging for me for now. Enjoy your morning everyone.
Howdy again, everybody:)
18° here now, sun in and out of the clouds, wind gusting from 10 to 21 mph- miserable out there.
oh Norma thanks. Yes it does make brutal winters bearable. Well except for today. The eagles are there and i am in this house cause well I really have to stay in til tomorrow afternoon. Its killin me. :(. Especially since I just finished working for 2 days. I need out.
The fighting though I think with our young juvies has to do with the numbers that are here. There is lots of fishing but also lots of competition. Not sure if the migrating juvies have it any easier to get through the winter than those who stay close to their nest homes. But they are awesome and each juvie has a color pattern of its own. To me it makes them just as beautiufl as the adults just to see them change overtime to their mature bird look.
OK off to find something else to do to pass some time.
No Ed's appetite is not back...him behaving...this brings tears to my eyes. I wish he would go back to MISBEHAVING ! He has been a 108 yr old man since last Tuesday. It is like he has been drugged...overdosed with medication. He use to read for hours. No book ... hardly at night no tv..he sleeps and he sleeps. I wake him to get food and liquid into him. I WANT MY MISBEHAVING HUSBAND BACK !!!!!

wOW. Strange weather around the country.
Take a look, there's still a lot of ducks or geese behind the BWO nest box.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
You want to get up close and personal with a Hummingbird??
Take a look at the Hummer cam now.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
DANA---Don't you think the sleep is good for him?---Might ask Dr.to see what he thinks----I have him in my thoughts & prayers!!!!
WHOA MEGAN!!----I hope you can keep those WINDS in your area!!---I hate the winds!!---snow is better--if I must chose!!---ho!---(DOUBT IF I WILL BE ASKED)----WOW! my sound is LOUD today!!!
Wow, Tian is dead after Mei Xiang this morning. Not giving her any break.
I just read LISA'S pic---on how EAGLES clean their beaks after eating!!----What would we do with you LISA!!---Thanks!
Oh, Norma, you are so sweet and kind! Not so young anymore! But I do agree....I think my son is very handsome and the best son ever!!!
His birthday is Sunday. He turns 40....my baby! He was placed into my arms Jan. 30 at age of 12 days. Yes, he is adopted. The greatest experience in my life.
Good late morning, fowl friends. Been lurking in between doing some house work. Dana, sent you an email on yahoo...I couldn't open the eagle attachment! I sure hope those people know what they are doing, and that the eagle is okay. Hadn't heard that there was a nest at HF....how neat is that? Could it be any of our previous juvies?? (I know not this past years' group).
We have an inch of snow...schools closed...as with most of the rest of you, I guess. 19° now, and wind is blowin'! Brrr... Glo, don't know how you stand your temps! Tea and donuts instead of coffee and doggie treats, huh? Bet Dex is HAPPY!! LOL!
Jim, we wouldn't mind a bit if you blew some of that wonderful warm air eastward!!!
Oh Hedgie Dex and I already braved our way across the street for the coffee and dog treats part way earlier this morning before the sun started to trick you into thinking it was warm out LOL. NAd yep tea and donuts were great. Now out to start the car for a few minutes even though it doesn't get to leave the garage today.
For a picture of how Dex looks in survival mode see feature picture on Glo's Glimpses this morning LOL. He hates the booties but he can at least walk around and get across the street for dog treats in them.
Have made the rounds on all the cams...no action. Going to go eat a bite of breakfast. My coffee is gone gone! BBL
Wow, thanks, Dana...what a beautiful shot...I surely do hope that they can get a successful rescue. Wonder who is doing it??
There are two eagles at Lake Washington, did anyone mention that yet?
Glo, Dex looks like quite the fashion plate!!! Cutie!
THANKS MARGY....been watching it all a.m. and turned it off
LOLLY---You certainly have a wonderful son---so caring & thoughtful!!---You all must be proud!!----
Looks like we are headed for another split!
Glad you got a peek MITS before they bailed! Nice evergreen sprigs in that nest, came in after dark last night.
☺
Are you Zoo-ing it today? Or just staying HOME "enjoying" the cold?
Good Morning Hedgie, I missed you on my "first rounds" this morning. ☺
Been reading that book!
