Thanks, Steve....sounds like a bummer. I got the others!

Mits said...

thanks, Lynn and Steve:)

deb said...

Thanks, Steve, for the new thread!! Glad you are done with that meeting.

NatureNut said...

THX, STEVE, YOU NEED A VACATION!

hedgie said...

It doesn't sound good when a planning (as in budget??) nmeeting takes that long!!!

hedgie said...

First set of pics are uploading to blog!!! Hope it works!

Mits said...

no, no, he can't go anywhere:)

hedgie said...

Taking an awful long time to upload.....hughes cop will probably nab me for traveling under the speed limit...argh!

carolinabeachmom said...

Whew. Thanks Lynn and Steve.(Hope you are right and the snow might not head your way).

The poor NBG bird looks drenched and if she is now sea sick, she will be. :)

Mits said...

LYNN, I sent you the African sites.

hedgie said...

How long can we expect it to take for the eaglet to emerge?

hedgie said...

Thanks, Mits! You're a princess!

carolinabeachmom said...

Our weather has been strange here as every once and awhile, you can hear thunder and it is in the low 40's to upper 30's here right now. Not that kind of weather.

Mits said...

Weather Channel just sent this...

Mits said...

think it depends on when it actuall started to hatch, anywhere between 24 to 48 hours...?

Mits said...

From Lisa's site....

When the eaglet is ready to hatch, it will turn itself inside the egg and pierce the egg’s air sac, then the chick will take its first breath of air from within the shell. Next the chick will use its neck muscles and egg tooth (on the tip of its beak) to pip or punch a small hole in the shell. The eaglet will continue to slowly turn and peck until it has cut a hole around the diameter of the shell so that it can push out the bottom half and free itself. This process is very tiring for the chick and can take 24 hours to complete since the young bird will frequently stop to rest. Once the eaglet is out, it will be wet and tired with its eyes closed, but it won’t be long before it dries off and is soon able to see and sit up.

Mits said...

so 24 hours.

hedgie said...

Mits, no mail yet at AOL... or did you send to Yahoo?

carolinabeachmom said...

Boy Mits, that weather forecast doesn't sound good.

deb said...

Lynn, if you upload more than one picture at a time it takes longer. Also, it takes longer during the day than at night, must be something to do with blogger traffic.

Mits said...

you know what, it might have been yahoo, sent it by way of outlook express, not verizon.

carolinabeachmom said...

Two eagles at NBG hanging on for dear life

Mits said...

they only good thing is it is March so hopefully by Wednesday we will be back up in the 40's

normabyrd said...

hedgie said...

Oh....didn't think it would be that long!!! So guess we don't for "fer sher" as the kids say when the actual hatch began....so watch is ongoing.
Mits, forecast sounding worse!Hope they are WRONG!

normabyrd said...

DEB!---Didn't get to see the 2 EAGLES----BB (BLOGGER-BOY) stopped me again!!

Mits said...

POOR EAGLES AT NBG will have to hang on for awile

Mits said...

Weather Channel always seems to be the most ominous, but not always the most accurate...

Mema Jo said...

WHOA Like a breath of fresh air!

Budgets are a Bi#%CH*%!

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Steve for the new thread and Lynn for the heads up.

That red tail hawk is STILL there at Portland.

Thanks will check out email.

deb said...

You are right about that, Helen, but Weather Channel is one that actually uses the temperature here in Vermillion. Weatherbug uses Elk Point.

I see pictures, Lynn!

NatureNut said...

A bit ago saw one eagle flying out at Norfolk. Don't know if it was a switch!?

I have a feeling we won't have a high school reunion comm. mtg on Mon! DUH! Half the people I left phone messages w/ and sent ems didn't respond anyway!

Mits said...

weather underground uses Elk Point too

normabyrd said...

VA LADY is lying low in her nest!!

deb said...

That's what I meant, Helen, what did I tell you about my brain!!

carolinabeachmom said...

Parent is up at BWE and looking into egg cup. Naturenut, I saw the two in nest and there was no change. The one on the eggs got up and then wiggled back down on them.

normabyrd said...

Wondered where the BLUEFIELD EAGLETS were----I notice the ground is snow covered & appears to be snowing now---

Mits said...

as Jo would say, we have CRS....BRS is in sunny Georgia

normabyrd said...

HEY NATURENUT----That's one COOL BIRD!!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Good Sunday afternoon!! Been cleaning house all day, YUK!! But man, I love it when it is done. Only lasts for an hour or so, but I love it for that long.

So we are expecting an egg at BWE any time, huh?

carolinabeachmom said...

It looks like it is spitting snow now at NBG to make matters worse.

Mits said...

YES, LYNN it was yahoo.

Mema Jo said...

Oh Mits! I can't remember what
CRS stands for


Couldn't pass that one up! Red might
remember!

Mits said...

39° in Norfolk, Candy, hope it is just rain

Mits said...

family blog here, Jo, can't put it on:)

NatureNut said...

Norma, HI! You mean the penguin? I didn't know we'd get weather to match his habitat!!!LOL

carolinabeachmom said...

I am hoping that it is just rain too MITS. AND the way that tree is rocking back and forth has my heart in my throat too.

carolinabeachmom said...

Down here we are hoping for no snow as we don't want school called. It would mean going to school on this coming Saturday. :(

NatureNut said...

Thx Candy! Guess there's no break for the weary!

normabyrd said...

HEY SISSY!!---I wondered where you all were----Saw it had snowed in BLUEFIELD----I agree---"HAVING A CLEAN HOUSE IS THE GREATEST FEELING EVER"-----(sissy---takes so little to make us happy) ho!

carolinabeachmom said...

Naturenut, I guess the eagle felt that he/she had been there right along, so might as well stay there and hunker down. :)

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Yeah, it is snowing at a pretty good clip right now. We had a winter storm warning but they canceled it (hasn't stopped snowing since they canceled). We have about 2 inches right now, heavy wet snow. The bamboo in my front yard is on the ground! ☺ ☻

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Sharon just stuck her nose out the door for the first time today!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

I am gonna go in here and finding something good to watch and kick back a while. Ya'll holler if something eggciting happens!!

Mits said...

looks like a juvie at BWO, or a TV, can't see its head

Mits said...

aww, a juvie

hedgie said...

Okay, Helen, thanks...got the site in Yahoo mail!!

normabyrd said...

WVU--FL GAME STARTED---

Mits said...

good, Lynn:)

Mema Jo said...

I still have my feet kicked up! Movie almost over

hedgie said...

Deb, to put individual captions on each pic...do I just do one photo at a time and type label in the small box??? Guess it's too late now!

hedgie said...

Guess I'd better get the trash out before it starts doing snything.

BTW....ATTENTION TOM SELLECK fans....new Jesse Stone movie on CBS tonight! He's still a hunk after all these years, and love him in this new role....he's intense and complicated; loves his dog and his booze (too much) and justice! Comes on at 9pm.

deb said...

Lynn you can edit, I'll email the directions!

NatureNut said...

Egg roll-our nest.

NatureNut said...

Plop!

Lolly said...

Loretta and all...I could not resist. Just put on my blog pictures of my little penguin. It is under Misc. Pictures.

Lolly said...

Going to Lowes. Need to buy a new bird feeder. Wind blew ours to the ground and it shattered. Boy am I going to have a lot of weeds for the seeds that fell all over the place.

BBL

NatureNut said...

Lynn, you can edit your blogspot,click New Post, go to bottom & it say's view all posts & you can click Edit next to title of post and add titles for each pic if you want or type titles above or below pic in their "em" windows.

deb said...

BRS just went by a sign that said Daytona Beach, wish I were with him!

NatureNut said...

Thx, Lolly will check it out.
Daughter just called that she drove around and 3 mi. down (south) on Hwy 71 she saw burned areas & helicopters were still dropping water on places. Didn't know you were near San. An. She said the wind there was a major factor, but was blowing away from her area.Too bad for all those who lived further south.

NatureNut said...

Great pics, Lolly!

Mema Jo said...

Just checked out that little penguin!

deb said...

Cutest penguin I have seen in quite awhile!

Mema Jo said...

Jesse Stone is going to be on my TV tonight!

NatureNut said...

Hey, Deb, if you want to go to Daytona, naxt week is BIKER week! My stepson is going--he builds his own choppers as a hobby.

hedgie said...

Thanks Deb & Loretta...will have to try it!
On my camera, when I viewed the tree/nest pics, I could zoom in and get a close-up of the birds...but can't figure out how to edit the pics on Picasa to do that. Gotta investigate!!

NatureNut said...

I might watch start of Celebrity Apprentice tonight---fun to see others fighting!! And you can take sides & say "GRR" & get out all your anxiety! LOL

hedgie said...

Zach makes a cute penquin, Lolly!!!!

Mits said...

juvie back at BWO

Mits said...

aw what a cute penguin:)

Mits said...

got fire in the fireplace, going to watch some of the race...bbs

greymare said...

Hi all, I've figured it out finally! Glad to see there is a new therad. Am so anxious for the egg to hatch. It's fun reading all the comments.

deb said...

Welcome, Greymare!

carolinabeachmom said...

Tow eagles in our nest

carolinabeachmom said...

LOLLY What a cute little penguin you have there. You are one lucky lady.

carolinabeachmom said...

Switch

Mema Jo said...

Heavy Sunday traffic out on the road with BRS.

carolinabeachmom said...

NBG keeps going black. Guess it gave up the ghost.

Hey NORMA, wait up. I want to see WV play too. AND Tom Selleck at 9pm? Wow.

hedgie said...

Okay, editing done!

Candy, how is everything on the Outer Banks?? Did you get any flakes or just all rain (so far!)??

wvgal_dana said...

Lynn and Mema Jo JESSE WILL BE ON MINE TOO WE HAVE BEEN WAITING TO SEE THIS MOVIE...I too think he is still a "hunk"....( :

carolinabeachmom said...

MITS I wished I had some marshmallows to toast over your fireplace fire. I would just looooove to have some smores!!!!!!

carolinabeachmom said...

LYNN The Outer Banks is cold, rainy and very windy. Had some thunder earlier in the afternoon, which I couldn't figure out as it wasn't warm here. Not a good day for the beach at all. It would look like an angry ocean if one looked today.

wvgal_dana said...

Loretta you got mail

wvgal_dana said...

Tom Selleck still has it!!!

hedgie said...

Yes he does, Dana!!! Definitely my dream man!

Candy, we are in a valley here and sometimes get thunder snow! I'll go check out beach cam at Avalon Pier!

Mema Jo said...

LOL I knew I recognized the name of Greymare! Hi Barbara & Welcome!

hedgie said...

Oh, yeah, surf is very rough and angry, and wind is strong. Hatteras cam is blurry, but dune looks battered.
But you know what they say....a bad day at the beach is better than a good day anyplace else!

carolinabeachmom said...

Lynn I live in Colington Harbour on the big island of Colington; between the thin strip of beach and the island of Manteo. Our house is on the south side of a forested sand dune, so we usually don't feel the NE winds much. It is the NW or SW winds that get us.

Mema Jo said...

Deb - First met Greymare over on the Kent Forum! Then she became a Momster
and now a blogger.

Barb, Margy said she was anxious to have you come over here and blog - She is working noon to 6pm today - dispatcher with the local 911 in Martinsburg!
She is going to be happy to see you!.

Mema Jo said...

Wow Only 5 more hrs to view BWE!

wvgal_dana said...

I can't remember what does does the BWE cam turn off at night?

carolinabeachmom said...

You know Lynn, I can't remember when it was that I was to the beach last. I never even got there much this summer. Don't like getting out in all that traffic. It is like once you live here, you work here and then have to find the time to get to the beach.

wvgal_dana said...

lol Jo ( :

wvgal_dana said...

Ok I think and you answer before I get it typed OK LOL

hedgie said...

Candy, I was looking at real estate there and saw a property listed in your neighborhood...but everytime I tried to do the virtual tour it froze up puter!

Mema Jo said...

When Tom's movie is off
SO is BWE cam. So at that last commercial we need to get in here & look at the cam.......

carolinabeachmom said...

Lynn, that sounds about right. When we first moved here over 28 years ago, there were hardly any homes here in the Harbour. The lots were every 50 feet, which I should have thought long and hard about buying a few at the time, since our house up north was on 2 and a quarter acres of woods. I don't know if you would want to come back here now. Mine is just a plain screened in beach box, as that was all they were building at the time. Now there are some very nice big houses, but we have got a lot of renters that have moved in AND out, in and out. We have nice deep water canal for boaters and a harbor that goes out into the Albamarle Sound.

Mema Jo said...

The tent went down.... at BWE

That is a good sign

NatureNut said...

Dana, you've got mail!

Hey gang, we are now getting precip--flakes, but they are pretty fast, so must be freezing rain or something in w/them! BOO
If it's gonna snow, why not pretty stuff?

Mema Jo said...

REMEMBER Next Sunday we will be one hr ahead - I don't like giving back that hour that was lost - BUT I do like it staying light out longer in the evenings!

NatureNut said...

Does NBG go dark at night, or is it just not coming on anymore for me?

Mema Jo said...

Oh My! Getting closer by each report I hear south of me. Let me know when it
hits Bethesda.
Going to check out the OC cams...

carolinabeachmom said...

I am with you JO. I like it being lighter longer at night.

Mits said...

they usually have a night light at NBG, Loretta

Mema Jo said...

I hope Paula gets up the road ahead of the snow or sleet/ice.

Night Light on at BWE
Difficult to tell if it's the light or if
the nest is filled with snow crystals!

carolinabeachmom said...

Loretta, I haven't been able to get NBG for awhile now. It went askew, then looked like the cam pulled back from the close up of the nest and then next thing I knew, it was black. I do hope everything is ok there. It was blowing that nest pretty bad.

Mits said...

light snow here now, Jo

normabyrd said...

WVU BEAT SFL---GOOD GAME!

deb said...

I think it is snow coming down. Stay warm little hatcher!

carolinabeachmom said...

Congrats NORMA. Now our PE teacher will be feeling better. She'll come in smiling tomorrow. :)

normabyrd said...

LORETTA----I LOVE PENQUINS!----Then LOLLY showed us her PENQUINS------HANDSOME PENQUIN!!!---

Mits said...

ice pellets at BWE...33°

carolinabeachmom said...

We just finished a unit on penguins in Kindergarten. It must be the year for penguins. My sister sent me a stuffed penguin for Christmas and two kitchen towels with penguins on them.

NatureNut said...

Just got NBG to open---adult stood up for sec & then back down---very windy.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks for all the instant weather reports - we do better then any weatherman/woman!

Mema Jo said...

We just had a change in OUR eagle's position. I missed it while it was happening. I am so happy that our egg well is deep! I just wish that BWE would have made their egg well deeper!
NBG is really deep from the pics I've seen.

Mits said...

could be deeper tahn we think Jo, camera angle may not show it...just started snowing here and already I hear the sirens, these goofy drivers:(

normabyrd said...

WELCOME GREYMARE!!!---Where are you from?

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks for the heads up Loretta. I can just make out the white head bobbing and weaving in the black. The poor thing. I just hope the tree holds.

carolinabeachmom said...

BWE has turned and is again tenting. You can see that the nest is starting to cover, I think. The poor thing

deb said...

BWE moved, too and I missed that.

normabyrd said...

Thanks CANDY!---I have forgotten---Is your coach from WVU?

Mema Jo said...

Huge tenting at BWE

carolinabeachmom said...

NORMA Our Physical Education teacher wnet to oh, oh, what happened at BWE

NatureNut said...

Welcome back, Norma, & Hello to Greymare!
We LUV penguins too, got the movie couple years ago (not the cartoon) & a T-shirt.

Mits said...

still just rain at beaches, but if the temp goes down for them it will turn to snow.

normabyrd said...

WHAT will I watch tonight??---I don't like TOM SELLECK----

carolinabeachmom said...

ok, it cleared back up again. Whew
Our PE teacher graduated from West Virginia. She is also an avid Duke fan. I'll cheer for WV but BOO DUKE. :)

normabyrd said...

THANKS JO!---I had forgotten about the time change!!----(any baby news)?---

movin said...

They've got ZZ on camera now, eating her bamboo. First I've seen of her in days.

She's about 100 lbs. now, but she still is a sweetheart.


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

deb said...

Our eagle is up and at the side of the nest.

floralgirl said...

Egg roll- our nest

deb said...

Back on eggs, may live feed hasn't budged.

carolinabeachmom said...

Get back on those eggs. Hurry up.

normabyrd said...

CANDY!---I don't like any school that plays NC!---ho!---I am a NC fan!!!

NatureNut said...

Sure looks like snow at BW.

Also the time of year for osprey's to return. There always seems to be bad weather after they are here. Maybe their timing will be better, I hope!

Mema Jo said...

No baby news - Going to call in a little while to check out things in Hedgesville.

NORMA Perhaps with no TV on tonight to interest you YOU could be assigned our BWE Hatching Head Huncho!


Belle is looking all around - I think those bluebirds are chattering about the weather!

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks NORMA, you are a DOLL! :)

Mema Jo said...

Don't like how fast our Lady Blackwater is being covered with that white stuff!

deb said...

It is really coming down, I thought I was going to lose the picture one time.

carolinabeachmom said...

I was just thinking the same thing JO. Maybe we had all better say a prayer for all our feathered friends who are out in the awful weather tonight. Lets hope that the baby eagle doesn't decide to make it's appearance tonight.

Mema Jo said...

I just have faith that Lady Blackwater knows when it is time to get up and
shake off!

carolinabeachmom said...

Loretta, I forgot all about the ospreys returning. Down here they usually come back sometime after the first week in March. They start nesting back here in the harbor and that chases all the pesky sea gulls back to the beach. I jsut wish that we had some pelicans nesting near by here. They are at the Outer Banks but not by me.

carolinabeachmom said...

JO maybe this is a two parent night where both huddle together for warmth and to cover the egg cup. I know that sounds Kindergartenish, but it does make sense

carolinabeachmom said...

Thank goodness, our nest is still ok,

normabyrd said...

Thanks MOVIN'JIM!-----But I missed PRECIOUS!!---How long was she on?

Mits said...

Candy both parents were huddled together around 5 this a.m. at BWE...already deleted my pics of it that I sent around, but think Loretta may have put it on eagle momster album..???

carolinabeachmom said...

Thanks for the info Helen. I'll have to take a look. It would only stand to reason. I just keep thinking that eagles live and stay alive in Alaska.

carolinabeachmom said...

I would still like to throw a blanket over Lady Blackwater tho.

normabyrd said...

Waxing Crescent Moon tonight-- MARGY????

deb said...

Shaking off the now!

deb said...

Egg roll, at BWE

Mema Jo said...

BWE moving

deb said...

Back to tenting. I was hoping we might get a quick look at the eggs.

carolinabeachmom said...

She shook herself off and is ready to start again. She is really tenting now..

normabyrd said...

LORETTA has a photo---she took last night----shows both EAGLES in the BWE nest!!-----Maybe it will happen again tonight!!

floralgirl said...

Well, I'm not Margy, but yes, waxing crescent moon tonite- course we can't see it cause of the clouds.

carolinabeachmom said...

Egg roll our nest

normabyrd said...

Where is PAULA!---MD has a game this evening!!

Mits said...

Paula has been at her Mom's since yesterday a.m., she will be back tonight.

Lolly said...

Oh, poor Lady BW! Just returned and first view of the snow on her back. She is really staying close to her eggs. Good for her!

Glad you liked my little penguin. I thought they were really cute pictures of a really cute little boy. And, he does look like his daddy, which of course, I LOVE. He does not have his daddy's personality. Michael is laid back, always has been. Zach is a ball of fire!!!(Gets his hyper personality from his mom.) Shhh! Don't tell anyone I said that.

Hi Greymare! Know what I thought of? The song...The old greymare ain't what she used to be. LOL

Loretta, we are in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area. About 3 1/2 hours north of Austin. Yes, the winds have been horrible, therefore the fire danger. We are getting warnings all the time.

normabyrd said...

DEER eating at PA SITE---Don't see any snow!

deb said...

Ms. Goose is wearing a Shamrock Dress on the Snowman cam!

Lolly said...

Oh good, Lady BW shoot off the snow!

Costume Lady said...

Helen, thanks for sending the photo of the PEEPING egg. Has no one seen the eggs since that photo was taken? This is so exciting. I'll bet we will all be on here EARLY tomorrow morning...I know I will. Once they start feeding the little fuzzball, we will be able to take a peek:)

Mits said...

oh good, she was naked earlier.

Mits said...

tonight's menu at Saline....

Tonight's menu:

Salmon cat food
Dry cat food
Salami (cotto)
Bassgetti with tomato sauce
Garden Salad
Steamed Clams
New England Clam Chowder
Ice Cream!

NatureNut said...

I put my 2some BW pic on this blog.
Margy may have put hers on E_M.
Lolly, I had originally thought you were near Dallas. Sec. at the Park is from that area & her married daughter lives N. of there. Understand there is more ice there than other areas.
Gonna go eat. My NBG is kaput.

hedgie said...

No precip here yet.

carolinabeachmom said...

Loretta See the pic on your site of the two sharing the nest. Thanks. Oops sister is calling.....

normabyrd said...

LOLLY---I remarked to LORETTA--much earlier today that I loved her BIRD!!---ho!!---Then you showed her your 'PENQUINS'!!---I wanted you to know that I have a grandson named ZACH & a granddaughter named ELLIS!--- ho!

normabyrd said...

Must fix supper---

Costume Lady said...

For those of you who are Tom Sellick fans...I have posted a photo on Just for Fun of my ex-S-I-L and daughter. He looked very much like Tom and was in law inforcement. (still is)

normabyrd said...

JO!---I'll watch 60 MIN.---They have ANDERSON COOPER!!---He's COOL!---ho!

NatureNut said...

I need to go eat at Saline!!!

Didn't tell you about yesterdays "Shower". It was for everyone, not just ladies. Started at 4PM at Clubhouse. Hors de ouevres were there 1st-little crab squares, lots of different dips w/crackers, cold veggies, cheese, crock pot of little hot dogs in sauce, then came out oysters on the 1/2 shell, steamed shrimp, and Swedish meatballs +. about an hour or so later, dinner came out!!!!Lasagna, ham, macaroni & cheese!! I had none of that.Then, while the 3rd round of present opening was continuing, they cut the 3 tiered cake--also on that table was fudge,cookies, etc! I packed up some fudge before I left, but didn't have anything else!
The girl having the baby was the one whose bridesmaid was the lady I talked about who had lymphoma & then leukemia & passed away last summer. Her name was Sienna & she was 1/2 Am. Indian.They are naming baby girl Seanna.

Mema Jo said...

Yes, Norma he is! I just had it on!

deb said...

That was quite the feast for a shower, Loretta!

Mits said...

good Lord, what a spread, Loretta, snowing harder here now, already laying.

deb said...

Black cat is at Saline!

Lolly said...

Norma, is her first name Ellis? Neat! Often I call Jack "Ellis", our last name.

Jacob, our daughter's son, is Jacob Ellis Fritz.

Zach is short for Zachary, BUT he is to NEVER be called that. LOL And it is Zach, to rhyme with his grandaddy, Jack.

wvgal_dana said...

Wow BWE just shook off..

With all that food at the cam then all that food where Lolly was for the shower. I hate to think if they were just getting married what the menu would be like..

floralgirl said...

BWE shook off the snow again.

Costume Lady said...

Loretta, I like your friends parties...I think I would like to hang out with them!

The poor kitty did not know what to eat. Too much on the menu. My kitty would have gone for the ice cream! Whenever we eat ice cream, which NOT on my menu anymore, she comes in and sits and stares at us.

Loretta - I can't believe you didn't pack up more goodies/food
Darn it if you came home and had to cook a meal!
Are you on Lolly's diet? I would have needed to stay home and not be tempted with all of that!

Black cat with white paws is a pretty one BUT what is the mark on his right shoulder?

Do you see the long necked toy behind the cat. Isn't that the ardvark?

Costume Lady said...

Hey DANA...you did it!!

I think the toy is a dinosaur, isn't it? Whatever is on the cat, I don't think was there the other night, but I didn't save that picture. It is definitely eating its fill tonight.
