BRS is leaving Little Rock, AR heading to Memphis, TN. Thats one of the roughest sections of interstate highway I have ever been on. Had a job once where I had to drive it about twice a week. Full of potholes and they never pick up the blown rubber off the trucks. Sides of the interstate is just littered with rubber.

Mema Jo said...

WHOA! Slid right through the SPLIT !
I got really lost this afternoon!

Check out NZ Panda cam - those closeups are from non other then MITS, I bet!

Mema Jo said...

BWE That is probably Lord Black Water.
Their nest always looks so well kept - no loose twigs like ours which is such a lived-in-nest look - sorta like my house!

T-Bird said...

Catch you fine eagle friends later.

deb said...

Both eagles, Our nest.

deb said...

And one gone already.

Lolly said...

Good evening everyone! Got busy working in the yard and then grocery shopping and never got back today.

Darn!!! Missed my ride with BRS. Guess I will have to miss the lunch next week.

Company coming tomorrow, so I will not be on much if at all this weekend.

Jack has finished our fence. While working in the yard I saw where my tulips are beginning to show buds.

Jack just invited me outside with him...he is having a beer, I will have my gin less GT instead of a glass of wine. Guess I miss the wine more than good food. LOL

paula eagleholic said...

Missed the egg roll, Belle did a 180 in position...

hedgie said...

Been trying to get this crazy router working...no luck yet. Think I need some nourishment before trying anymore! MAybe a drink would help..LOL!
Glo, I know a lady whose been dealing with that same situation for years and they have never found where she's losing blood from! She's in her 70's. They just transfuse her every couple of months...go figure!

hedgie said...

Hi, Thelma, bye Thelma...quick visit......just like Miss Vicki!!
Woohoo, Sharon....where are you? How are you doing this evening?

hedgie said...

Hopefully, I'll BBL...thought I had lost all connectivity for awhile....hope THAT doesn't happen again...not sure how I fixed it!!

Mema Jo said...

Bamboo eating time at the NZ zoo.
Hope I didn't miss the Red Pandas if they were available for the camera.

Granddaughter called - no new baby yet!
Son called -I got half of a blueberry pie

Mema Jo said...

Going to check some of the cams

BBILW

floralgirl said...

Hey JO- they are throwing your beads at the MARdi GRAS PARADE CAM

deb said...

I have an update on the San Jose Peregrine Falcons. Clara is back, but sadly Carlos is MIA. There is a new male this year who just showed himself the last couple of days. He has been named Esteban Colbert, after Steven Colbert. Some people on the site are not happy. Maybe they don't realize he is a big bird person.

Mema Jo said...

WHoo Hoo! I best grab my 4 pairs of purple beads before I look for more.
Thanks Megan


Thanks Deb for info... I have not gotten through all my cam checks yet!
Mainly incubating eagles or MT nest so far.

I am going for the beads

Red said...

Well I'm out of here. Mrs. Red is on her way home and we're going Mexican for dinner.
Have a good evening everyone. ♥♥♥

floralgirl said...

Wish that NO cam had sound, I'm missing all the bands...

deb said...

I get the e-mails from their site, that is I keep up on San Jose.

deb said...

Megan, I didn't know your site had commentary at first. I about jumped out of my chair when they started talking.

deb said...

I hear them, Megan!

floralgirl said...

The new Orleans site? I have no sound

floralgirl said...

Here comes a float- better get ready to catch some beads, Jo.

Lolly said...

Cool! Neat cam. Wear the beads Jo, don't throw them!

Mema Jo said...

High Stepping marchers
Don't see Happy Faces.....

Put up earth cam - New Orleans

Watching the crowds on the
Bourbon Street Beat

paula eagleholic said...

2 eagles at PH...4th fish delivery for K26 today!

deb said...

Float #5 the Birth of Dionisis. Probably spelled that wrong.

deb said...

Float #6 is The second birth of dionysis.

deb said...

Float # 7 is The Infant with Hermes.

Mits said...

my Mardi Gras has sound...I also watch earthcam.com Bourban Street.

Mema Jo said...

Do you know why the parade has stopped?

I like the beads that young man has right down there.

deb said...

They haven't said, they are interviewing people in the crowd to fill time.

Mema Jo said...

WOW! Look at all those beads

Mema Jo said...

Full screen on parade - just double click

deb said...

People will show you their shoes, they say the best way to get shoes is to hold up a sign that says Booze for Shoes!

Mema Jo said...

Did you all catch any??????

Mema Jo said...

Wish I could hear that

Eagle Band

deb said...

Throw shoes, not show shoes!

Mits said...

lol....some of the eagle band look lost, just climbed the fence and are running down the street

Mema Jo said...

I know of a guy who threw his shoes
(at the Pres) He's going to be spending
time I think!

Mits said...

I thought he got off...?

deb said...

The commentator got 9 pairs of high heels last night.

Mits said...

God help us, this is the youth of America:)

paula eagleholic said...

Wow is it Mardi Gras time already...

floralgirl said...

The shoe thrower's trial just started a couple of days ago.

deb said...

Up date on shoe thrower:


THE Iraqi journalist who became an icon for critics of the US-led invasion when he hurled his shoes at former President George W. Bush went on trial today, facing up to 15 years in prison.

I googled it.

Mits said...

yes Paula, these parades last for a couple of weeks, last one on Tuesday, Ash Wednesday on the 25th

Mits said...

I'm surprised they are punishing him.

Mits said...

Bourbon Street is getting crowded.

Mema Jo said...

Got notice of next month's Allegheny Power bill - seems to be increasing monthly by at least $10. I am wondering when it will hit the limit? on boy!

Mema Jo said...

Yeah Mits - Did they ever think he was just practicing for Mardi Gras activities? lol

Raccoons in the woods early tonight

Looks to be snowing more at the Snowman

Burrowing owl was outside today

floralgirl said...

On their website, Allegehny has a long explanation of why they need more money from their customers....

Mema Jo said...

But you know that doesn't help your pocketbook...

I think I would enjoy a hot tub soaking without bubbles..... Maybe I will even thank Allegheny for the Hot Water!

BBL

magpie said...

Belle seems to be stirring, looking around

Good Friday Evening Eagle People ☺

Mema Jo said...

Starr Ranch Barn Owl


New Link

magpie said...

Big Fat Owl at Valmont and a Mess o'Raccoons at Pix

Mema Jo said...

Hi Margy
Just checking out some cams - almost
ready to head in for a Tub Soaking!
Hope your day was well spent!

Norma was on & looking for you while you were at work! She sounded great & it perked everyone up that she was here.

deb said...

Margy, 10 swans were spotted an hour south of Yankton today. A mixture of trumpeters and tundra. Mary and I are going to see if they will stay there for us in the morning.

deb said...

Our eagle is up.

Mits said...

Former First Cat Socks, one of the world’s most famous felines, died Friday at the age of 20 after battling throat cancer since November. A stray cat rescued by the Clinton's daughter, Chelsea, Socks lived in the governor’s mansion in Arkansas and later moved with the family to the White House.
RIP, SOCKS.

deb said...

Oops, the call of nature got Belle up. I haven't seen a poop shoot in a long time, much less a slow motion one. I should have been taping that!

Mits said...

BACK DOWN...going to fix myself a chicken pot pie and watch Flashpoint...BBL

Mema Jo said...

Just saw a Beautiful Egg Roll
in our nest...... I am so
thankful for our great weather so far!

Mits said...

is that what she did...

deb said...

Lucky cat to be rescued and live such a long life.

magpie said...

I shoulda stayed glued to the view at OUR NEST but was answering an important family email...and missed the egg roll and the Poop Shoot...

Jo : was delighed to ready Norma's posts! She came back ready and rarin' to go, sorry I missed it all!

magpie said...

Deb: I surely hope you see those swans! My friend in NY reports that some seem to be returning. I am still listening for them at night...


Jo and All

Eagle at LW - look quick I don't think it is going to stay long.

magpie said...

Wow - now Two !

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Margy
I have not seen them for quite a while
So glad to see both!!!

Mema Jo said...

Very nice DEEP egg well at LW

deb said...

I have missed them, too!

Mema Jo said...

I doubt that he flew very far
They have so many convenient limbs on which to perch

magpie said...

Yah - still one in view, dark view on the branch...
that was really pretty, watching them, if she had poop shooted it would have gotten us in the eyeballs for sure ! ☺

Mema Jo said...

Lady Valmont is in the 'nest box'

Can't tell if eggs are still there...
From past experiences I don't think the birds remove them - like the egg left in the Osprey nest on Wild Watch and also the eagle egg at Puget Sound nest. I'm not sure what happened to the unhatched eggs in our nest after the snow blizzard in March.

magpie said...

LW is a perfect cam to keep open, does not give me any problems with my computer !

Belle is still getting settled in, maybe I will those eggs yet !

magpie said...

I was watching ValMont when I first signed on, the Owl was practically face first into the camera, SO HUGE LOOKING, then flew off, eggs still there...

magpie said...

I was hoping for some hanky panky at LW...sigh, no go....

magpie said...

Just saw the Owl eggs again, and maybe still in view now JO

Mema Jo said...

I hope GeeGee is headed home now & getting tucked into bed by her lovely daughter!

Checking weather for tomorrow and praying for a beautiful sunset as the
wedding is at 5:00 for my niece!

Mema Jo said...

Saw them Margy - thanks

magpie said...

Just saw four raccoons at the carcass site....

LW eagle still on the branch, very hard to see, can see its glowing eyes once in awhile.

deb said...

Have a nice time at the wedding, I probably won't be on until later in the day.

I think I see snow in CO.

Mema Jo said...

Taking an hour break

BBL

deb said...

Well, I must be seeing things, nothing now.

Mema Jo said...

DEB WHENEVER IS YOUR SISTER GOING TO

SEND YOU SOME OF LAST MONTH'S FAMILY

WEDDING PICS FOR YOU TO SHARE WITH US?

Mema Jo said...

I didn't leave yet!! ho!

I see the one egg behind Lady Valmont
If she does start a new clutch of 2
I guess we'll never know which 2 are the new ones until they would hatch!!

hedgie said...

Mits, guess you've found that Flashpoint is a repeat...boo.
I've given up on the wireless router for tonight....so no laptop connectivity yet....more boo!
Don't know why everything has to be so darn difficult.

hedgie said...

Sharon...Sissy....update please!!! How is our gal doing?

magpie said...

Valmont's backside is right into the camera !

Costume Lady said...

GOOD EVENING...
Back from Crab Leg Night with GeeGee. She was much better today and seeing Denise (her first grandchild) made her eyes sparkle. She has seen no one this week but me and Gene. She ate like a 16 year old boy:) She carried home a piece of apple turnover in her purse, to eat with her coffee in the morning. We did, indeed, tuck her into her bed...turned the lights out and came home. She seemed to be full and happy:)

magpie said...

One glowing eye eagle still on the branch at LW

If Valmont turns around and faces the camera it is going to be Awesome, and Spooky !

Best Weather Wishes for Saturday and the Wedding, Mema

deb said...

I talked to her this morning and forgot to ask, Jo. I am still waiting for a picture she has from when we went to Alaska 4 years ago. She is hopeless. I will see if my younger sister has one yet.

Costume Lady said...

Lynn, it is getting to be that time of the year, when they show many re-runs. BOOO!

Mema Jo said...

Sharon seems to have had a good day - if only happy to be home and starting this treatment.. Machine was delivered & home health was there & got her started.

Norma back blogging big time! Ho! That has made us all happy !

And now that I know Gee Gee is also a happy camper - I'll be able to rest easy tonight.

Only have to get the wireless router fixed on Hedgie's lap top!!


Life is good !

magpie said...

Good to hear about GeeGee, Wanda, and thanks for the Sharon updates, Jo

Good luck with that wireless router, Hedgie
and Happy Wildlifing Saturday, Deb

I am suddenly totally exhausted and am ready to hit MY ROOST.

Good Night, All.
Love, Peace, and Prayers xo ♥

paula eagleholic said...

Sounds like things are looking up. Gladd GG enjoyed the crabs and Sharon is getting taken care of!

paula eagleholic said...

Who's attending a wedding tomorrow?

deb said...

I am tired, too, for some reason. Early morning tomorrow, so I will say goodnight, too.

Mits said...

Jo's niece gets married tomorrow, I think.

Mits said...

don't know why there are repeats tonight, this is still a sweeps period, guess all the newer shows will be on next week....

Mits said...

deer at pix

Mits said...

raccoons at Okie bird feeder

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Mits. I missed that somewhere. Have fun, Jo!

I've been watching a movie and will probably turn in early as well...need to catch up on my sleep!

paula eagleholic said...

Ooops, almost forgot!

Hugs to all ♥

hedgie said...

Wanda, glad to hear that GeeGee is doing better. Mmmmmm...crab legs!
And glad to hear that Sharon is started on her new treatment. Hope it works FAST!
Goodnight to all turning in. I won't be far behind....frustration makes me tired! Oh well, tomorrow is another day---and my name ain't Scarlett!!
Prayers for all. Talk to you tomorrow!

Mits said...

Good night:)

Mema Jo said...

All heads are tucked under the wing and
BRS is parked at the truck stop!
Time for bed....

Good Night
Prayers for everyone being said

(((hugs))) ♥ ♥ ♥

Costume Lady said...

It's time for me to tuck my head in too. Seems like we are all on the road to wellness now. PRAISES!

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE

Belle just did a great egg roll and re-roosting, but I could not get a capture....sure was beautiful. She is still awake...

magpie said...

There is a Sea Eagle at Cold Finney's now...

Sun is shining nice at Finney's now, on an empty nest.

Belle and the egglets are back to sleep.

Getting ready to leave for work, hope everyone has a Great and Healthy Saturday...
