«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 292 of 292Ya'll gotta remind me!!
I believe that was George and Martha from the Wilson bridge in DC
LOL, thought you were losing it, Hedgie...
Should we have a vote to decide whether or not to have a vote...(laughing as she runs off to watch the rest of dancing)
I tape it and then watch it later, instead of 2 hours, I can watch it in about 45 minutes. I don't vote anyway, so that doesn't matter.
Mits, the original two were George and Martha, but I don't remember what they named the murderous tramp!!
I vote to vote, Paula!!!
I wondered how Lib and Belle got their names...now I know:) Thanks for enlightening me. I wasn't with you all that first year:(
Hegdie...
Remember Monica....(Think Clinton)
This last guy, on DWTS, Gilles sure is yummy!
Many wanted to call the tramp Monica from Clinton but I think she got the name Dorothy. Orginial Lady was Martha.
Going to watch CSI
Jo your doing great it sounds....yeahhhhhhhh
Yeah, I remember 2006, Dana, and I've always liked the choice we voted in.
On the other hand, we have such an outlandish record of naming chicks the wrong sex... For example, it always bothered me that 'Big Boy' was actually a girl, and Ms-in-between was a boy bird.
So, if we are going to do it formally, I would be happier if we kept it to generic names like 'Spunky' or used initials.
...Another thought: we could have a professional, like Lisa or Steven, I.D. their sex beforehand.

PLEASE--I am sorry---I didn't mean I wanted to vote on name!---please forget it-----
Good evening! Worked in the yard, then cooked dinner for Jack and our neighbor who had surgery. Just getting on cause I was exhausted. Been watching Dancing with the Stars, have my feet up.
forget what:)????
it was Monica.
well Jim, unless they climb the tree, you will never know what the sex of the eaglet is.
Yes, he is yummy and the best dancer, to boot, Paula;)
I can finally see the Eagle cam again. I missed a lot. How many eaglets are there? Did all the eggs hatch?
Thank you
When did you climb the tree in 2006 and determine that to be the absolute truth, Jim???? I don't even think the experts at NCTC could determine that.
Welcome ktstfish!
So far we have one eaglet that hatched this past Saturday, March 14th.
We don't know if all the eggs will hatch or not...I think the next couple of days will tell the tale.
Actually, DNA analysis is the only definitive way to tell the sex of the eaglet....beak and tarsus measurements are not exact, but they are a very good indication.
well for sure, but looking in a nest on a cam would never be the most accrurate guess of sex of a 3 month old eaglet....the only reason we know the difference with Belle and Lib, is we see who is on top during HP.
I vote we do not subject the eaglet to DNA testing...
other names for Monica were....
Even the brawny bunch of construction workers on the Woodrow Wilson Bridge project near the eagles' nest are aghast. They call the younger bird in George's life "Camilla," "Angelina" and "Charlotte the Harlot."
Not TOO impressed with any of the dancers yet....Lawrence Taylor sure wasn't that light on his feet when he ended Pretty Boy Theismann's career, tho', was he???
Oh, yeah, Mits, I remember Camilla now that you mention it!!!!
Was that LT that did that? I never knew...was too young at the time :):)
LOL, Mits, those other names are pretty fitting, too!
Well, I gotta go.
I hope by some miracle all three hatch and fledge this year, and I hope we get the right names for each of them....
Do you see a link between the late hatchings and 'global warming'??
**GOOD NIGHT**
**EVERYONE**

Jim
I'm still looking for the name they actually call her now, if she is still around, I had a contact I used to use, but have deleted her name long ago, and since the project is done, don't hear what is going on there anymore
I volunteer to climb the sycamore tree and swab the little chick's cheek. Or maybe even a poop shoot sample will work for DNA:)
Two Eagles at LW -
On Sentry duty and fussing with the nest
Norma This morning when I was up and about before going to work I was yearning for some CAPITAL LETTERS and EXCLAMATION POINTS FROM YOU !!! So in the mornining I am going to back to the early thread for Monday and just re-read some of your Cheery Comments !
☺ ♥
Make that TWO IN the LW nest now
I'll the ladder, Costume, and Gene can take the pictures ☺
Maybe Margy knows a CSI, who can do the swab. Look how long it took them to find out Buddy was a Buddy.
Oh shucks, make that I'll HOLD the ladder...getting too late for me
If it were only that easy, Wanda.
They have to use a blood sample...
nope, don't have any of those kinds of contacts MITS :(
Night bandit has struck again...
Good Night, Friends....
Nice soaking rain here now, makes me glad for Megan
Peace, Love and Prayers xo ☺ ♥
I volunteer Jim to go get the blood sample....how about it, Jim, you game?:)
Have a nice dreamy look at LW if you can....
Good Evening All!
I wish I could be out dancing - lol!
With all this talk about names it is true that the names just evolved due to the eaglet's characteristics as we watch them. We have never voted on their names but yes we did good in voting for mom/dad's names! Sex makes no difference if you name an eaglet a non-gender name!
I just want to enjoy that little one sitting there all alone with the 2 bestest parents that could ever be!
Sure is a lovable looking little one!
Read through all the discussion on naming this sweet little bird. Why don't we just let the name evolve like we did last year. Let the personality of this bird dictate what we call it.
Hidey is pretty good for now, as that is what we see....a little bird hiding. Also, Hidey goes either way...male or female.
And our Belle is looking around and up
maybe find a different spelling....you know how many of us will be calling it Hiney.
LOL Just read your post Jo. We said the same thing using different words. We are in agreement!
How are you?
Doing pretty well - not planning any hikes! Surgeon satisfied with leg & how it is healing. Just told me to be up and using it!
Oh, lovely! Spidey's web is blowing in the breeze.
You mean, you are or are not ready for Dancing with the Stars?
Can you believe how many particpants are getting injured?
I am going to call it a day
Lots of walking around for me today
Good Night All
Prayers for All
((((hugs))))♥ ♥ ♥
Everyone get ready for SPRING.......
Jo, glad the doctor is happy with your leg.
Lolly you missed the spider, it is not right on top of the cam lens this time, so it looks like a little ball crawling on the web.
Belle has fallen asleep in the stealth bomber position
there was a big bright light to the top left of the nest for about 10 mins, now is gone
Thank goodness it is not right on top of the lens! I can do without that again!
Mits, I saw that earlier...think it's part of the web
Oh, so it's a tiny spidey?
Good night everyone. Thought Dancing was good tonight BUT yes it is kind of a shame that folks are getting injured. hmmm. Its been a good day.
no web where I saw this light
I saw a large white spot that was moving around earlier...but didn't think it was a spider...thought maybe somethimg caught in the blowing web....
I didn't see what you saw Mits
this was stationary.
In the upper left?
Yell if you see it again
it was left in the dark, at between 9 and 10, looked like the big light we see to the right of the nest at times....off to bed...good night.
Okie Dokie...one I saw was about as big as Belle's head...
She's finally up
Maybe security is shining a spotlight up onto the nest???
I'm saying goodnight, too. Been a GREAT day w/ cool pics and videos, assuring us that at least one eaglet has made a successful, healthy arrival into the world!
Prayers and peace.
Stretch, flap, stretch

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL AND FOR A PEACEFUL VOTE.
AHA - that was you with the light, Wanda!!
YEP, and I waved too!
NITE ALL!
Laundry is done...hitting the hay
Hugs to all ♥
Am I seeing two Birds in OUR nest? Adults that is ?
or is it just big wing spread that has already been mentioned? I am just passing thru on a Nature Walk and checked the cam..
Okay so it must be just one - just surprised me the way it looked, must be sleepwalking and seeing things...
Magpie, are you walking and talking in your sleep? Belle is alone and has her wings spread wide.
Nite all! Sweet dreams!
Belle is tenting, maybe rain.all is well. good night.
Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone...sure we wish we could do Green Letters on here today!
I sure was fooled by those large extended wing tenting actions overnight, sure I was seeing two birds, yes, guess I was seeing things and talking in my sleep! ☺
Off to work, "see" everyone much much later and several hundred Blog posts from now!
xo

Happy St. Patrick's Day all!! Live feed still working, it is a beautiful thing!!!
She was hollering a minute ago, Lib must be above the nest.
She's up and I see chick moving.
Breakfast time for the eaglet.
Whoa- eagle flew in, had a switch in nest now.
I hate to say it out loud but the live feed is doing good this morning.
