OK eagle wouldn't budge
Eagle up our nest
I was over on the earlier thread merrily commenting. Think I'll drag one or two over here:
Kayaking, Deb! That must be great.
I remember when I was a boy, one of the older kids had access to a folding wood-framed kayak with a waterproofed canvas cover.
I was allowed to operate it a few times, and I'll always remember how fast and quiet it was in the water.
You can take a long stroke in the direction of a duck or a mud hen and nearly run them down before they know you are there. Fabulous compared to the clunky old row boats we had otherwise ... or the homemade rafts we had.
Actually, I was forbidden to play in the slough (closed-off estuary), but I was ordered to go play with the local kids, who were all 2-3 years older than I was, and who invariably headed for the slough to play! A conflict that was never really resolved, and I received some 'corporal punishment' and was (what's the term) ... not allowed to leave the yard for a two week period on several occasions.
*****
I just remembered the term for the incarceration within my yard:
"RESTRICTION!!"
Some others were "grounded" but I was restricted. But when the two weeks were up, I had to go out and play with the same kids, and we were down at the slough again very shortly......
******
Anyway, I think kayaking is one of the best, fastest and most fun modes of transportation upon the waters.
Have a great time.

EAGLET ALONE OUR NEST
I love the way the one eagle got right in to the face of the other eagle and it would not budge, after a few minutes it squawked at it and it left.
Good Morning All
How about our little eaglet being warm enough to be on its own.
Restriction was a good word to use, Jim.
sounds like Jim was "grounded" to me:):).
Adult eagle has returned
Put my still cam up with records first actions
Adult eagle up on side of nest at 2:00 position - Live feed just doesn't catch it!
Going over to earlier thread
Should be some photos over there......
WHoo Hoo! Just got good look at the OKLA eaglet! It is right up under the adults' breast. Fuzzy little grey one!
That will be nice to see the OK eaglet being fed close up!
Our eaglet is soaking up the Vitamin D.
I missed the OK chicklet view....will wait for another!
Cool, just got a tiny peek!
Good late morning all.
Hey, Jim, we were "on restriction", too!! Somehow my kids got grounded....different terms for different generations!
Where did you grow up, Jim, and where was the estuary?
Got a good nights' rest...feeling better today.
Was surprised to see our baby untended a little while ago.
Had to run son up to get his car...we walked home last night!
Yup Hedgie, same here..parents restricted me, I grounded my kids.
It's chilly here today, still only 38°, but the sun feels warm.
OK Paula - how long of a walk was it??
NBG eagle taking a panda nap
I'm going to break away & relax for a few.
BBL
Nice fresh fluff in our nest
Good Sat. Morning Everyone in Eagletland!! Sunny but crisp here.
Thank you Megan & Jo for BWO osprey pic! Our cam was down TU at Park (what else is new) so couldn't watch osprey's up close. Seemed only one was in the nest at a time during day, but several others flying around. Saw one w/fish being chased by another.
Our 'puter at Chelsea office was STILL not hooking up w/server, so couldn't see Little Luney or anything else!It's been off all week & some of the other 'puters the ladies use to work on are networked & need server too. DUH
Every time I get near our nest -- It FREEZES!---drives me nuts---
Only half a mile, Jo - maybe a tad more. Went out w/ both sons and DIL and college kids GF - she left early. Went to the Ott house for dinner, stayed for Freddie Long Band and drinks! We all walked home! Son and DIL stayed the night.
Yea, Norma, hope we get to see some real time action at some point instead of slo mo.
Paula, not even going to ask WHY you walked home...LOL!!!
MORNIN' MEMA JO!!---SORRY!---I just missed you!!-----I hope each day---you get better & better!!---ho!-----(get well soon)---
Tee hee!
We had a great time!
MORNIN' NATURENUT!!---It's a beautiful day here too!---our temp is up to 40° & climbing---
Still only up to 35 here...was only 23 at 8am....winter wants to continue it's spring tease dance--doesn't it know that it's time is over? But many bird songs, so they don't mind!
MORNIN' HEDGIE---I was off for phone--& I missed you----Just read--you slept well & are feeling better!!---GOD BLESS!!---hope this will be another GOOD DAY for you!!
MORNIN' HEDGIE---I was off for phone--& I missed you----Just read--you slept well & are feeling better!!---GOD BLESS!!---hope this will be another GOOD DAY for you!!
Paula, tee hee! Glad you all made the wise, responsible choice!!! And that you had a good time!
REMEMBER KIDS---I CAN'T REMOVE MY GOOFS!!---
The "Ott House", that brings back memories....we congregated there 2 nights before son's wedding, a fav hangout for MSMU people:)
WELL PAULA----You don't have to go the the GYM this am!!---ho!---'you go out walking after midnight...' ho!----

Hello all:)
It's 75° and sunny in the GH:)
My kid is 14 and has never had to be grounded yet...let's hope it continues.......
Youngest was 15 when he got grounded...only happened once...maybe twice

Looks like our Baby Baldie is gonna get covered up...
I'll bring the portable TV, Paula.
Nope, not yet....
Looks like BB is trying to climb out of the egg cup...
Well, thanks, Norma, I take some credit, but give a lot to her, she has made good choices so far, we like her friends, -two years into high school, so far so good, think we are right in the middle of the 'difficult' years.
Cool I never have TV out there in the Gh, just radio. Can you bring lunch, too, I'm getting hungry.
We'll need a laptop too, Mits.
I'm getting hungry too.....
We can pick up some subs on the way...
we have this cute little flat screen we use on the kitchen table....had to get one of those hook-ups for it, it is not on cable:(
PARTY!!!!
Look at our nest, eagle is fanned out
Look at that pretty wingspread

OMG---OMG---I just found my FINLAND NEST!!----(i must be dreaming)---Thank you---Thank you!!
LIFE IS GOOD!!!----
Eagle is up at OK and there is a chick and two eggs!
WHO IS BABY BALDY??
OK nest just gave another peek...chick looking fluffy!
Darn, she sat right back down, but I did see the chick Deb mentioned earlier.
Norma - I was refering to our chicklet at Baby baldie...
Yay, Norma!
Megan- we've gotten a couple of peeks so far this morning! Will be really neat to see a feeding!
WHERE IS BB?
Cool, I hadn't seen the chick yet, when did it hatch? I gave up on NBG cam, and switched to OK, NBG just keeps freezing, and makes me seasick...
Sorry, Norma, same eaglet...next time I'll be clearer!!
OK hatched overnight or early, before dawn this morning...
Had to turn off NBG too, cause of the freezing...
Cool, OK has a great view of the nest. Gonna go see if seedlings in Gh need watering.. hold the onions on my sub, please...
No problem Megan. Don't like the onions either.
Takin a break...
Waalked to back in to get hot water- both eagles at OK
I FREEZE EVERY TIME I attempt to see our nest!!----Still was lost in your alls excitment!!---guess I need a break too!----
eagle up in OK
both eagles NBG
got to see the eaglet at OK
really can see the yellow feeties at BWE
Hedgie, the 'slough' was the estuary fed by a couple of streams just north of Torrey Pines Park in Northern San Diego ('County' then, 'City' now). They used to allow it to close off to the ocean because they feared the bridge on Highway 101 ("the" major highway before freeways in the area) would be undermined. And the 'sloughs' along this stretch of 101 would get very rank and, according to mothers, poisonous.
However, about every 5 years or so we would have so much rain it would flood everything, even over the County road to the north; so they would run a bulldozer under the bridge and hightail it out of the way. All those flood waters and mud and pollution would turn the Pacific brown for at least a mile to sea. [The bridge did not seem to be in danger of falling.]
Well, now 101 is Pacific Coast Highway with far less heavy traffic, and they keep the estuary open all the time.

Jim
The Osprey is no longer visible at BWO, but I'm not sure he has left.
Have you seen anything??
C(°ٿ°)D
Jim
awesome fly in from OK , eagle brought a brand new stick
Look at the chick at OK, sooo cute.
Very interesting, Jim. Never heard about that before. I know that all of us who grew up in the cities have seen lots of changes through the years, but I bet your area especially has "grown up" so to speak. At least in DC, there is so much that thankfully can't change!
Belle sure has been tending in the egg cup for quite some time.
Checking cams & read SOME of old Comments. Sad about the IN eagle. I caught part of a story on early news last night that showed a healed eagle being released. Don't know where, but it had been shot in the leg & was OK now.Hope they catch those idiots & throw away the key!
If I see OK chick, I might take pic to post if that's not illegal. I don't have the program to capture live shots & 'puter is too full for much else.
BRS has a beautiful you tube presentation on his blog

Hidey aloney again!
But not for long!!
AFTERNOON EAGLE FOLKS---Just checked & I still have FINLAND NEST is still there----of course it is a little dark now!---ho!

Check this out- video of NBG chick
TX A&M -- UCONN--playing now!!
Thanks Bob the additional pictures you added are great. The race was on between the eagle and osprey.
I like both the hawk pictures. I know the one is a red tail. I would like to know what the other one is?
I also like the osprey with his catch in the tree. Like "woo I got away finally". lol
I'm in the chat room, they say the people at NBG think the chick hatched around 12:00-12:30, and that the next egg is likely to hatch today also.
from the looks of this chart, this may be #2 egg that hatched today...

it is funny, Megan I thought I saw 2 eaglets and one egg with a pip,
MEGAN---The NORFOLK LADY was so tender with the 'little one'---
I watched your video twice---thank you!!!!!
Isn't that neat, Norma, I found that link for video in the NBG chat room, I think it was DJ that put up the video.
what a cutie, thanks, Megan
I just caught the tail end of view, was walking by computer, they are saying they saw a hole in one of the eggs like you said you saw.
she really tires easily, when she laid one of her eggs , she conked out right away.
nice when you have a cam that you can see things on.
YES---I thought the NORFOLK chick was due 2 days ago---would be great if the other one HATCHED today too!!
Yeah, I've beconme attached to the OK cam, cause you can see movement.. love watching the chick interact with the parents.
well that last feeding at OK, was the best I have ever seen of an eagles I have ever watched, reminded me of the Conn. osprey, who seem so good at parenting and taking care of each other
Thanks Megan for begining the link for the NBG chick over here. WOW that was a "quickie"...needed to look fast to see little bobble head.
No Mits your counting don't stink...I also have if that was the 1st egg laid that it is 39 days if it hatched today.
bbl going out to eat
Wish CONN OSPREY would get fixed--SOON!!--
wooo, that is a huge fish at OK
chick in view at OK
Yep, getting fed some of that fish. Eaglet our nest is eating too, but it is so frozen today-super slo mo..sigh...
mmmmmm sushi at OK
ok that is enough for now at OK.
man that NBG chat room is a hoppin, don't know how they remember each other....
I can't keep up either, but a lot of them are regulars, just like we have here, and if you want info, that's the place to go, cause they are in touch with the people at NBG and some of them live by NBG.
Both -our nest
so one of them took the great pic there yesterday?
UCONN leads TX-AM----51-33 (HALF)
