Norma, what did they say was wrong with your computer???
Good Later Morning!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDRA & CHRISSY'S FRANK
After all our late night watching, see there are still 2 eggs.
Well I just wrote a post and the blogger ate it and would not let me back on.
See if I can remember it. I said.
Morning Norma. Sunny and cold in downtown Baltimore.
My computer is acting more like still cam than live video. Going to try to post this one.
Well it worked but it is getting on my one nerve already this morning. So I will say have a great day. BBL
Two at Norfolk.
I hear ya, Ceil
Oh read in the paper this morning where they had to do a root canal on one of the polar bears at the Baltimore zoo. Should have seen the paw on that bear.
awwww, is it ok?
HELEN!----They said "CLEANED UP computer!---Removed viruses & spyware"-----My computer is still freezing up!!
I was trying to fill Suzanne in on the third egg thing, and she came up with this fact concerning the third one last year:
"She would be exactly on her schedule if she did lay another one. Last year she laid egg number 3 4 days after egg number 2. Today is day 4 after laying egg number 2 for this year.
2008 season:
1st egg between 1-4 Feb 08 (cam was down, but egg was there on 4th when cam repaired)
2nd egg before 2000 on 6 Feb 08
3rd egg on/about 0530 hrs 10 Feb 08
2009 season:
1st egg 31 Jan 09 somewhere between 0200-0245
2nd egg around 1921 hrs 2 Feb 09
3rd egg if she has one is due today sometime, 6 Feb 09.
I was hoping she would stick to two eggs this year, give them a bit of a break. But we'll see. If there is an egg there, I'm sure someone will see it sometime today.
Suz"
Clearly, that's military time she's using. But either time system, it looks like this pair does go longer than 3 days between the second and third days sometimes.

Good morning!! Have to admit I am dragging this morning. Tried to go back to sleep, but kept thinking of the nest......and NO #3! Well, maybe this morning!
well that is frustrating, Norma:(
Mits it is fine. When it woke up it was very thirsty. Just like us humans. It will be on antibiotics and a soft diet. fish with no head or tail.
Dang it, we may have to make a road trip to look at Norma's computer...
Eagle having breakfast in OK nest, still no egg.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SANDRA WITH HOPES OF A "BIRTHDAY EGG" JUST FOR YOU!!XXOO
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MR. CHRISSY, TOO:)
Can't go to Norma's...she would make us work in her yard! HO!
MOrning, all.
All of Belle's 3rd eggs, as far as we can tell, have come on the 4th day...
Good morning, Paula. Thanks, we can all take a deep breath, go get another cup of coffee...
Come to think of it, I haven't gotten my first cup yet. Hahaha.
Later....
C(°ٿ°)D
Jim
Belle was just up, but did not get a look at the eggs.
Going to go get the paper and take the garbage down to the street. I'll be glad when Jack is home! Tomorrow!
Paula, do we have a record of when Belle lays her eggs? Any consistency or just per chance?
MORNIN' NATURENUT---LOLLY---WANDA--& PAULA!!---LOLLY--Read you are watching your diet!!!---Does that mean no more home-baked bread & sausage?????----ho!
Eagle was up- egg roll-two eggs.
Yes, Wanda, we have a record. It's on the momsters home page
Good 3rd eggless mid morning to all of you! I am so glad to say that the gang's all here!
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDRA
WE COULD GET YOU AN EGG YET TODAY
OVER THE POND BUT NOT OVER THE HILL I AM SENDING BIRTHDAY GREETINGS TO FRANK aka CHRISSY'S HUBBY
FINNEY SITE----FOGGY & SNOW IN NEST!
2 eggs better than none;)
You're so right, Mits
I'll go with 2 any day
There goes that one corn stalk
It is snowing at the Oregon nest.
SUNNY DAY in ME!---SNOW in nest!
But it ain't over til its over!
WHOA!----Am I the only one that can't tell who or what is in the NORFOLK NEST??---Anxious to see EGGS in that nest!!
What is it that Hedgie says?
It ain't over till the fat woman sings!
lol
Egg roll....
DEB!---I think there is always SNOW on the OREGON NEST!---Isn't it beautiful this am??
Yes it is, Norma. The snow was almost all gone earlier this week
Eagle in the OK nest.
Osprey in HH nest.
OK eagle is sitting in the nest cup. Is is egg laying time there?
Lurking as I read the paper. Just saw her stir so thought I better check the blog.
Yes NORMA, no homemade bread and sausage for the next few months. This is serious! :) I do not diet unless I DIET. This is the second time I have ever done this. Lost over 30 pounds one time, this time I am aiming for 40. I am eating, eating good...veggies and fruit and getting the right stuff and walking with a DVD. Retirement caught up with me! I will be more careful from now on. HO! Jack and I like to cook, will continue to do so, but the good stuff will just have to come less often.
Both eagles in OK, both osprey in HH.
Yes, Red, it is egg laying time in OK.
Looks as though BRSteve is loading or unloading at a dock.
Up again and an egg roll...wiggled back down onto eggs...
Osprey left HH nest.
BRS is selling his photos now. He has lots of neat ones.
who is brs?
Live feed freezing - I can tell the position switch on the still cam but not the live. So I guess I will refresh and see what happens to my Live...
Live feed refreshed to same as Still cam
The GH Owl has been spotted at CSUB, the one with the nest on the ledge in CA.
Norma, BRS is Big Rig Steve!
BRS is a truck driver that we watch as he drives across the country with his semi.
BRS
brs is the Big Rig Steve - trucker
He has a cam on his dash board and we get to go along for the ride down the
open highways
When it opens - you sometimes need to
double click on the screen and it goes
full screen .. Then double click to go back to normal size.

Big Rig Steve
Going to go look for Mama Owl
Deb where did you read about her being spotted - I don't have a home page saved
CO OWL was in the nest earlier when I looked.
Norma, Big Rig Steve emailed Helen & said if he saw eagles he would get photos as she requested !
I honestly don't know what to smack first, the cam or the blog...
I read it on the Owl Blog on the bottom of the cam page.
CSUB
With IE double clicking on cam makes it full screen but have to right click it and select "Exit full screen" to get out of it.
We are keeping our eyes out for Mama Owl. There are signs that she has visited the nest but we have only seen her in the trees on the south east end of campus, in the trees at FACT.

MITS Here is the site for Mama Owl
Mama Owl - GH owl
RED I just double left click it when at full screen and it goes down to regular size
Try it & let me know if it works for you
Red I am using Firefox - Guess that would be the difference....

Now I didn't know little Pandas don't pee. Here's the latest from Atlanta.
Friday, February 6
Over the last week, Xi Lan has urinated twice. I was somewhat surprised to see this, because I don’t remember Mei Lan having any noticeable urine when she was this age. This is not the first time that I have seen urine from Xi Lan; the first time was about a month ago. He must be doing more than just playing in the water bowl! We should be seeing him urinate more frequently as he gets older.
How can I tell that its Xi Lan's urine, you might be asking? Well, there are two ways to distinguish Xi Lan's urine from Lun Lun's urine. The first way is color- it is bright yellow, almost neon in color. That is normally the first indication, but we don't draw our conclusion on color alone. The other characteristic that distinguishes it is the unique odor. I can't really describe the smell, but it is much different than that of the adult giant pandas, and something that I definitely won’t forget.
Well, I hope that this topic didn't gross anyone out too much. For most keepers, urine doesn't bother us much, because it's pretty much a part of our every day life.

Rolling those eggs...
Egg roll...can see the 2 pretty eggs quite well
Helen, did you invite BRSteve to our blog? He would probably get a kick out of our antics and maybe try harder to get a photo of an eagle. Glad he answered your email...now we know he is FOR REAL.
Didn't get a pic for the album
Wasn't quick enough......
No didn't give him an invite yet, Wanda....
Red, that is what Giant Panda females are doing early in a cub's life, she takes care of both ends.
I think that comment was misleading. I think they meant urinate on his own. Mom's do the job just like for puppies and kittens.
Big Steve answered me also. He said he was glad I enjoyed the site.
Better get my housework done. BBL
PAULA....you have mail.
Wish we had sound...
I only see two eggs, but eagle is blocking the view.
Still only see two eggs.
Poof.
I see two, eagle just flew out of nest.
MT NEST, ONLY SEE 2 EGGS
That was interesting, wish cam would work better- so jumpy- eagle got ip, looked like it was yelling-
Eagle back now
Eagle back.
that doesn't mean that 3 can't be there, it is kind of hard to look down in the egg cup
yes, did see eagles mouth open wide a couple of times like yelling
I saw that, too, then moved to about 9 o'clock and poof.
Hi everyone! Busy at the hospital today, just finally making it on here. I see we still have the 2 eggs.
off to do some laundry..bbl
Happy Birthday Sandy!
Just chatted on the cam with Ger Gals
Elizabeth is jabbering up a storm & getting ready for bed
Samantha watching a DVD movie
MISS THEM SO MUCH
Hi Danelle - hot you aren't freezing over there again today.
Next Egg Roll we need to get a very
close look - Sometimes that Squawking is just a call for a switch but it could
mean 'Ouch that one hurt a little coming out"
lol
Sandra's email after picking up her ecard--
Many thanks, Jo. You and Wanda are both serving up tropical drinks today.
mMmmmmmmmmm, looks good! Perfect with birthday cake. Here's to healthy
eggs! Sandra
Let you all know when Aaron's visit takes place.
Nap time for me. BBL
Egg roll...facing 6:33....:):)
HI DANELLE!---I think BELLE wants to be replaced?---She keeps turning around!!----Wish we could see under her!!---ho!
I was over looking at kitty cam & glad I didn't miss seeing anything yet...
Hi everyone. Disappointed that I came home to no 3rd egg....hopefully it will happen before the day is out.
Just in case they don't go back to Th. blog, I'll say again
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SANDRA
and to Frank Beahan, too!!!!
Now to read newspapers, and go through mail. Feeling a panda nap coming on, too! BBL.
It looks like the eagle is sitting high in the nest right now. Not buried in fluff.
It's 39° here now, and sunny.
Live cam & still cam differ in position
of our eagle....
EGG ROLL
I see we have still 2 eggs..
Have to read all comments.
WV Public Broadcasting called wondering about a third egg. No go thus far we told them.
Glad they are keeping tabs on the nest!
Any chance you have checked out the NCTC article of Nest Updates
Winter Update #1 - February 5, 2009
which we think incorrect dates were quoted?
http://www.fws.gov/nctc/cam/nestupdates.html#Winter2009-1
ANYBODY SEE THAT???
EGG ROLL
I am about to run errands...gotta get to the grocery store. Something is surely to happen when I am gone. That is why there is no third egg, I have been monitoring it too close. A watched pot never boils!
Keep close tabs! BBIALW
There could easily be a third egg down in there. Did you see how far her head went down into the well?!!!!
Megan - what didn't I see
If you are interested there is a new No. Channel Isles. Report this week.
Read the Catalina Report while you're there, if you didn't read it yesterday.
C(°ٿ°)D
Jim
Thanks, Jim
Read the one report Now I'll go see what this says.
How's your weather today. We have Bright
SunShine!
I said it on other thread but not on this one yet. So here goes:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDRA HAVE A GREAT DAY !!
also
Happy Birthday To Chrissy's Husband Frank across the pond.
Another egg roll coming
Keep Looking
Too fast for me
the talons got in my way of vision
Aaron called and is enroute to Shepherdstown with flowers in hand & a
big hug ready for our b-day gal!
He said one day he would go look at her computer and try to get her back on our blog.
THEN he said he was going to Romney this evening! Watch out NORMA you could be the next geek stop one of these days!
Dana you keep your eyes peeled!
I am off to a panda nap - short one I hope...
BBL
I'm watching too!
I'm trying there Mema Jo to keep watch. Eye lids are heavy.
That would be great if Aaron could help Norma out.
Oh so wonderful knock knock on birthday girls door.
Hi Mema Jo,
Still a little chilly here at the hospital, but not quite as bad. I wore a thick sweater today. :)
I shall nap peacefully since I know you are both here.... loLove
If Sharon is watching then we are COVERED !!
Egg roll
Egg roll
Man does she have her feeties spread across that nest. To get down in there DEEP...I do mean DEEP...hummm could there be 3????
Egg roll but can't see how many.
Back down on eggs 1, 2 ??? 3
WE ARE ON THE J-O-B!
Up again-
Belle is up AGAIN
Back down
She is looking down at the egg cup on her right side. Now just looking around as she has been doing.
I have a choppy feed, no smooth movements, all choppy.
BRS message....
These folks are taking FOREVER!
Been here 8 hours and just now got in a dock door!!!...that must drive him nuts...
Sharon, always looks like it is in slow-motion
She just leaned her head way back. Like she is calling out.
Fussing at somebody.
She is up again
Her tail feathers are spread way way out...could this be an egg???
She is calling !!!!
She is still up
If so she could be letting it dry.
Wish she wouldn't have her back to us. So we can't see...Belle let us see Darling..
A note from Tom Otto on Kent--nothing exciting:
I believe they were waiting for the new servers to come in, so the cameras should be back up shortly. Hopefully there will be something to watch this year. If I hear more I'll be sure to share. Keep checking the camera links.
Still she is up no egg roll yet.
Could she be waiting to show Liberty???
I check everyday, Deb:(
thanks for his update, Deb.
Maybe she wants a break....
could be, Paula
Lookiing into egg cup but no roll. Now looking around again.
Was that 3 eggs???
Down she goes...
I still just saw 2.
I thought I saw 3, but the sun is messing with pic, and the cam is sticking, so I could surely be wrong.
Anyone get a pic?
that all I saw
I do, too, Helen. Maybe one of these days it will actually be working. They have been saying new servers are coming since last season when only one cam worked.
Megan and Paula - you've got mail.
Hi everyone. Disappointed that I came home to no 3rd egg....hopefully it will happen before the day is out.
Just in case they don't go back to Th. blog, I'll say again
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SANDRA
and to Frank Beahan, too!!!!
Time to go home! Talk to ya'll later! :)
I have always enjoyed the Kent nests, so much action to watch in previous years, and always excited for Loraine and her eagles
Good night, Danelle:)
Thought I saw 2 eggs also. Tried to get pic, but she sat down too fast. Seems to be looking up & around a lot. Maybe Lib is in the tree. Did they eat today? If so, maybe not in the nest.
Here we go again...blogger cop reposted my earlier message...argh!!!
Too bad Aaron doesn't have time to mess w/ Sandra's puter today!
PAULA AND MEGAN CHECK YOUR MAIL PLEASE
Hey Deb, the old Maine nest view looks different.
hp at NBG
I think he just like what you say, Lynn, and thinks it is worth repeating
Yes, they did "fix" the nest update on homepage!! Thanks, NCTC!!
Beautiful close up of Both at NBG!!
Lynn I didn't know anything was wrong with Sandra's computer??
SPLIT COMING SOON
SPLIT HAPPENS EVERY DAY!
Oh, my, I think I got wax!
Well, I've seen a couple of pictures going around- and I see three- call me crazy...I may be-
I gotta run out- so keep your eyes open!!!
One poofed at NBG, other wiggled down in nest. Could an egg be on the way?? ☺
