New thread.
I have been racing back and forth to DC the past few days. I had the honor to be in the audience on Tuesday at the Main Interior Building when the President spoke for the 160th Anniversary of the Department of the Interior. Had to go back down yesterday to DC as well...

Patooey! ☺
I forgot all about the "zoom" feature, Paula, thanks for the reminder. That's what I thought, too, about the grass.
I put some pictures up from today and also from the wedding back in January. I finally got some of my family.
Cam club was fun it always is. Tomorrow I will post the judging results on the photos.
Glad Sharon is doing so very well. Gosh my heart too so longs for the news that MeMa Jo has finished her surgery and all went well.
that is great Paula...hope for a win this Sunday:)
My sister saw the Osprey in CA again. I told her to go look for a nest at the wetlands area and what to look for. She said there are platforms there, but she didn't know they were for nests. I, so, wish we would have had time to look when I was out there.
love the duck and weddings pictures, Deb, you outfit was perfect:)
Owl possibly on the BWO Platform, look quick !
Glo, you mean you know the results and you're going to keep us guessing????
and the pic is not refreshing...
it is OWL isn't it?
yep sure looks like the owl, BWO is down for the night, it is after 11
Does it look smaller to you than the GHOW from the other night? It does to me, but that could be the way it is sitting in the pic.
Belle is awake!
Deb, can't find your family pics!
and Belle is still awake !
Okay - Mits - did not realize that one closed downa at 2300 also...
wow, we can all see it for the next 6 hours ! I sent a pic to Lisa but she will no doubt get a bunch of them in this case.
I see Belle's glowing eyes
Well actually Hedgie I did just post the results on my blog its just that for those on the Feedblitz they won't see it til tomorrow. Haha head on over and see if you helped me to pick one of the higher scores. Judges were rough tonight. But excellent critiques of some gorgoeus photos from well all over and of everything LOL.
I checked it with the pics on that page, it does look smaller
Go to Deb's Pictures and click on Wedding pictures on the right side of the page.
Okay, found them...I was just looking at pics and not at the blog list on the right! Duh!!!
Or at the bottom of today's pictures, hit Older Posts.
It sure does look little, wish we could see its face better
Well, the night bandit has struck, will check all new pictures in the early morning, plan to drink a bunch of water right now and make many middle of the night "loo" and nest view visits... and hope for Jo Updates.
Good Night, all, Peace, Love, and Prayers, and
remember, tomorrow is Friday, find some red if you can. xoxo ♥
Enjoyed the pics, Deb! Your dad sure looked proud of his girls!! Lovely young couple....was "the gift" a bird statue?? Kind of hard to see, but sure looked like a yellow bird!
Your outfit looked very nice on you!
I'm sure Jenny will post news when she can, I figured, if it was 7:30 and 2 hours long, she might just be getting to room now, and I'm sure dear ED is exhausted. He is a real sweetheart.
Shucks, Belle just tucked her head back...
she sure did, maybe that is a clue we should all get some shut-eye....I'm kinda keyed up tonight, must be too much caffiene, did fall aslepp around 8:30p.m. on the couch, which is something I never do.
Isn't that a cool pic at BWO - looks like a GHO to me.
well I guess the Redskins will want to go after Terrill Owens know that he was cut from the Cowboys.
The only owls with "ears" are the Great-horned, Eastern Screech and the Long and Short-eared ones. I am ruling out Long-eared, it doesn't look right, Short-eared is mostly a daytime owl. Too big for a Screech, which leaves the Great-horned.
that nest gets all kinds of visitors
Gonna grab a quick snack...BRB
Glo, I don't know anything about photo judging, but feel like the judges were too tough! Congrats on
your good scores among the elite! Did you get a prize or ribbon or anything for all of your talent and effort???? You and Bob have both been "slighted" in my book when it comes to photo jurying!!!!
ok what idiot thought of this????
WASHINGTON - The National Park Service is seeking comments on the latest vision for the National Mall, which calls for removing the Capitol Reflecting Pool.
A planning document unveiled this week suggests replacing the reflecting pool with another water feature such as a smaller pool or water jets to frame the Capitol.
WHAT'S NEXT CHOPPING DOWN THE CHERRY TREES, CUTTING THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT IN HALF...
I'm turning in...have heavy eyelids. Can hardly see to type...oh, I forgot my glasses, that would account for my bad typing:)
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL
I pray that the Great Healer will pay special attention to Jo, tonight. Amen
Mits, I hope the Skins are not stupid enough to go after T.O. The only worst player to select would be Vick, IMHO.....
Going to get my bath.....hope we have some news on Jo when I get back.
Belle is awake again
Belle has her head up
Mits, I heard that about the mall plans......also calls for tearing down the bandshell near the monument and adding a Metro stop....what a bunch of BS! Can you imagine...getting rid of the reflecting pool????? Haven't told my mom yet....I know it will make her sick.
Well Danny does like to fork out the money for the high profile players.
that is just plan sacrilegeous, getting rid of the Reflecting Pool, but what do I know??
Thought belle was dozing off, but there's the glowing eye right at us...
day light in Finland
NO to getting rid of the pool and acquiring TO
I wish she would get up!
That is crazy to take away the Reflecting Pool. Why would they want to do that?
Did they list a website that is accepting comments on the plan?
I'll be up later than most of you. I'll take the watch until 11:00pst or maybe later. Jim can take over then. I had a good day today and got allot of rest. I didnt work in obgyn for years for nothing.
Brother Bill says he wants to come back again this fall so October here we come!
She's picking at some feathers on her right shoulder
Howdy Anne
A little preening...
Paula:) SO NO TO.
Oh cool, Anne. Guess they had a good time!
Will you have a new knee by then
She's up!
I see 2 eggs and a talon!
I was reading the article somewhere on I think one of the news channels, maybe channel 7
she cant seem to hold still
She was moving fluff, then my feed stuck and she's back down, tail facing the cam
My live feed sure didn't cooperate, kept freezing and was in slo-mo most of the time.
couple more minutes to go for Sharon and Danelle's BD
Late night traveler...
Slooooooow mo here too, thought it was just me.
Well I am already up for my first view...I kind of thought I saw a black spot on the egg closest to us...
Happy Birthday to Youuuuu!
Happy Birthday to Youuuuu!
Happy Birthday dear Sharon
Happy Birthday to Youuuuu!
mine is not really moving at all it seems, keep refreshing
Happy Birthday to Youuuuu!
Happy Birthday to Youuuuu!
Happy Birthday dear Danelle
Happy Birthday to Youuuuu!
Mine was not slow-mo for a change.
Okay, it's time :
Happy Birthday Sharon xo ☺ ♥
Happy Birthday Danelle xo ☺ ♥
Margy - that was her talon in front of the egg
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHARON
live feed is frozen. I am going back to the old way
Did you get a picture of the two eggs and the talon, Paula?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIELLE
be back in a min.
Happy Birthday, Sharon
Happy Birthday, Danelle
Okay, Paula...I can't trust my eyeballs! ☺ "old eyes"
time for more water and a little more sleep xo
Hope this is your BEST BIRTHDAY EVER, Sharon and Danelle...
filled with all your favorite things....
National Mall Plan
No Jo news, I see.
Loved Deb & Glo's pics! Glo, you sure had some tough judges. What was wrong w/the favored pic? Too artistic?
Saw BWO--the cam is stuck--Great! Looks like GHO to me.
Helen, we'll have to go picket if they want to fill in the reflecting pool. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!!!!!
Thanks Deb, I lovr that you can make a comment, but they can't make a promise that you personal stuff might not be available to the public, in other words, make your comment and hope you are not harassed by a person with a different viewpoint:(
Happy Birthday to Sharon & Danelle ☺ ☺
yes, Loretta, we can go wade in the reflecting pool, and probably get arrested....nothing is more beautiful then seeing the reflection of the Washington Monument in the pool...just shaking my head.
well going to shut it down..TTYT...good night.
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SHARON!!!!
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DANELLE!!!!
There have long been problems with the reflecting pool and it's been empty more often than filled for the last few years. They keep talking about the trash, etc. and the constant algae problems....well, duh, how about more aggressive maintenance??!! And some park service policing would prevent some of the problems, if you know whaqt I mean!
Leave my city alone!!! Stop trying to change it!!!
Heading to bed. Guess no news is good news. Prayers for our Mema. Like Margy, I'll check when I get up during the night.
Lynn, ALSO, Where are they getting money? Adding more trillions to the deficit we taxpayers will be responsible for?????
Yes I did Deb..will post it.
Heading to bed, Belle's snoozing.
Night all.
as Jo would say..
Prayers for all needs being said
And from me,
Hugs to all ♥
I'm still watching. I had some trouble with my Heidi. She was freeking out about something outside and I couldnt find anything. She is still growling. I hope its not my skunks that have come back. Back to the cam.
Nite Anne Marie and anyone else who is still up! We are calling it a day!
Thank you prayers for Sharon's progress and prayers for Jo.
Sweet dreams!
Forgot to say....Belle looks like she is still awake.
Bell has turned around and is awake but I am going to check back in a while.
Woke up & just saw Belle turned around, too, Anne Marie. Saw her eyes glistening.
Gotta get some more zzzzzs--work in AM. BOO ☺♥
No movement. Seems to be sleeping again
Well its the middle of the night for MeMa Jo check, lifting up a prayer for her ocmfort and heading back to bed.
Anne Marie--so glad we can look forward to seeing you, Sandy and Bill this fall!!
Nest looks quiet. We are about 2 hrs. into the 35th day.
No email from Jennifer about Jo.
Back to bed for a couple hours. TTFN.
Woke up had to check for any new of Mema Jo...nothing yet.
Good Morning Eagle Watchers...
I don't think Belle has had a whole lot of deep sleep overnight...
seems awake now but not moving around much
Jo - I am thinking about you and sending you special thoughts this morning...
Best Wishes for a Special Friday for all
Heading out for work now
and Belle is wide awake...
xoxo

Morning Megan ( :
Hey Dana...nice morning here-47.°
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
I was so hoping to hear some good news about Jo. I'm going to assume that her surgery is over with and that she is resting comfortably. Helen will tell us when she comes on.
And then, there is the question of Belle's egg...is it or isn't it?
HAPPPY BIRTHDAY TO SHARON..
Hope we get our first chick today, then we can name it after you! Maybe we can call it SHER:)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR FRIEND, DANIELLE.

Praying for Jo this morning. donna
Good morning all!! Happy Birthday Sis-O-Mine!!! Such a bittersweet day! My baby Aaron would be 29 years old today. He was 8 months old when we lost him! And our neice, Becca (Mattie's mom) is 34 years old today. So hard to believe. The years just keep flying by.
Good morning to all my favorite eagle buds!! Good to hear Jo made it through her surgery okay. I think most of us were up and down all night watching for that news. I know I was anyway.
Happy Birthday Danelle and Glo's Becky!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHARON!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANELLE!!!!
Good morning everyone.
Just had a egg roll at our nest. Couldn't get a good look but did look like 3 eggs.
I always felt pretty ripped off because we didn't have Aaron for even 1 birthday but I have to tell you, God blessed me with some wonderful birthday presents at age 13 and 18. :)
Mattie, Justin and Becky came this morning to bring my gifts and cards. Becky made me a scrapbook that absolutely made me cry. It is so beautiful and so full of memories.
Mattie got me a Lady Antebellum CD. I love them. Andrew, so far, gave me a wonderful birthday hug!
I have a million ecards I have to go through and I have to work. I will be here on and off.
Sharon, what have you heard about Jo? Seems no one else has heard anything.
Wow! lots of birthdays today.
Happy Birthday Danelle:)
Happy Birthday to Becky:)
Just missed an egg roll- gotta go to work- so keep those eagle eyes open- somebody wants a birthday hatching today....
Hoping to hear some news on Jo soon.
Good Morning Sissy, Sharon, Glo and Red.
Sharon do you have news to share about Mema Jo's surgery??
Happy Birthday to Glo's daughter Becky.
Happy Birthday to Mattie's Mom also named Becky.
May Aaron have the sweetest of birthday in heaven.
My gift for the day besides celebrating my beautiful daughter one more time and good friends also having a special day is that report from Suzanne on the Momster mail. I can breather a little easier now and keep on praying her through.
This is what Suz sent to momsters mail.
I sent Jenny an email early this morning asking how Jo's surgery went. This is her reply:
Heard from Dad last night around 9:30 and it went very well. I will be going in later this afternoon to see her and I will let her know you are all thinking of her. Please let all of the Eagle Momsters know.
Thanks
Jenny
So glad to hear that! Now Jo needs to get healthy and off crutches in time for the Spring Nest Fest. But I think we could all help her get around if she needed it.
Suzanne
Praise the Lord for good news on Jo! feeling much relief here.
Heading out for retiree breakfast. See you all later.
**GOOD MORNING**
**EVeRYBODY**
I actually wrote a big, long comment and a 'good night' last night, but then either the blog or my cable killed it and ate it!
Shortly after that, I ran into a lot of cable probs...nothing would refresh without losing the site. So, I just shut the whole shebang down.
Seems to be working fine now though. C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Thank God that Mema Jo is doing well and is on the road to recovery.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
BWE is feeding her chicks now.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Sorry Jim about your computer/internet problems. Glad though that you are able to still be with us this morning.
Did anyone let Lisa at Blackwater know about Mema Jo?
I think I just saw 3 intact eggs.
Happy Birthday Glo's Becky. Jim, I had a long entry in the blog last night, and the wretched blogger cop wouldn't let me post it. Who has possession of the wet noodle, now and can Mits give him a good talking to?????? donna
Sharon, you are so special. You are not only our Eagle Eye, you are our wax queen too. love, your big sister
GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDDIES!-----and a "HAPPY---HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO BEAUTIFUL SHARON"-----and a "HAPPY---HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO BEAUTIFUL DANIELLE"-----
ENJOY YOUR DAY "KIDS"!---
SISSY---Remembering you today---too! Sending LOVE----
Good Friday Morning everyone.
I read this blog----but what AWARD did STEVEN receive?----
Norma, this is what Steve posted on the main page:
I have been racing back and forth to DC the past few days. I had the honor to be in the audience on Tuesday at the Main Interior Building when the President spoke for the 160th Anniversary of the Department of the Interior. Had to go back down yesterday to DC as well...
Do you all see Belle telling the eaglet to come on out? She was just talking to it letting it know that my birthday is here and he can hatch now.
talked to a very loopy Jo this a.m., she is on percoset and morphine....;), things are going well, heart and pulmonary docs were in, gave her an a-ok. she was going to CT for a test she was going to have next week, routine, but instead of bringing her back, the are just going to do it while she is there, says treatment has been great, and HELLO TO EVERYONE.
Good morning, everyone. It was so nice to read the news about Jo this morning!
Happy Birthday, to Sharon, Danelle, and the Becky's!
I just read Sharon's report on Jo. THANK YOU JESUS..(joke between me and Jo). We can all breath easier, knowing that Jo is now in the healing process.
Capt. Eagle said that he would pick up Jo at her house in the Eagle Express and carry her in, when we have a June get together:)
So, Jo, plan on being there!
Thanks, Helen for letting us know about Jo, :)
Thank you Mits. I bet she is a loopy! :)
Wow, that is like common sense those docs are using with Jo!! I didn't know doctors had that. I thought they had common sense surgically removed in med school!! Great news about our Mema Jo!!
Thanks Norma and everyone!!
she said if it were up to the pulmonary and heart doctor, she would be released from hospital, but she is waiting for occupational therapy, to come in, while I was talking to her they arrived to take her for her CT and she said..."their coming to take me away"!!!!!
Morning, all.
Looks like some fresh fluff in the nest!
HO HO, HA HA, HEE HEE!
And that would be loopy, not "a loopy".
She is extremely pleased with the treatment so far, said she thinks she just has an ace bandage around her leg, but she hasn't looked at it yet. Ed was on his way, had some things to do this a.m.
exactly, thought she was going to break into song. I hate those drugs:(, but know you need them, said she had some pain around the kneecap, also told the docotor to put in gold screws...
Glad things are going well with Jo, that's the best report we can hope for!!
All smiles and some chuckles on the News from Mema Jo.
Sissy Wow, that is like common sense those docs are using with Jo!! I didn't know doctors had that. I thought they had common sense surgically removed in med school!! Great news about our Mema Jo!!
I hear ya!!!
Maybe they all love her at that hospital too...whats not to love :).

Eewwiie eating something at BWO
eagle just landed at HI....
@##**&*% bolgger- I said I SEE A CHICK
Egg roll our nest...missed it on the live feed, it's frozen for me again...
WASN'T MY HOOVER!! :)
Gee, I'm a poet and don't know it.
#@*$@# I thought I saw a chick- front spot- I didn't have still cam up- did anyone see it???
And everything you say, seems to rhyme all the time! :)
SHARON...you have mail, sent you HI site....you are going to love it.
Someone told me earlier today that they saw a chick too but wasn't sure. Maybe you did see one Megan.
My live feed was frozen!
CONGRATS! PAULA!---You basketball team won!!----SO DID THE MOUNTAINEERS---they are also going to NY!----I think we have one more game!!
#*@# it.... I was just walking by, saw the eagle get up- looked like a chick in front- I could see two eggs....can I get a witness??♫♪♫
Well, there is no doubt that we will have a chick today! :) But I didn't see one that time but also didn't see all the eggs either. MORE WILL BE REVEALED!!!
WHOA!---I saw ANNE MARIE on here some where!!---Have missed you & delighted to read your brother wants to come back to WV!!!!!
I'll see if anyone at Maine is watching.
feeding at BWE
No Maine watchers right now.
Well, I gotta go back to the GH- so I'm leaving it to you eagle eyes to catch a glimpse...I thought for sure I saw a gray ball of fluff beside two eggs. I wish I had a waterproof laptop....
Eating time at BWE
I AM A-WATCHING MEGAN!!!
WHAT.... the forum that never sleeps is asleep:)?
OK, cause if it's there, I'm calling it Hoover.....
Sharon I can see you grinning all the way to Rock Island.
My feed was frozen, and didn't see that on the still cam
Wow, HOOVER is a great name! :)
I can't get the live feed to stay on for any length of time...then when I try to refresh, it just hangs up my computer...
Shocking, isn't it, Mits!
yes it is, Deb:)
Yep my feed is freezing really bad too :(...Lots of us are watching for sure. It is what it is. So I have been told. :)
yes, Glo, sad, but true:(
Yup folks, not going to improve as far as we know :(
Much better than a blue screen though!
It's like having 2 still cams on...
Give me back what we had last year....I'll take less freezing and less time to watch for better quality and rewind...and sound
But it is what it is...
PAULA!---I know you love EEEEIES at BWO---"CHARLES TOWN, WV WANTS AN OK TO KILL VULTURES!! Town leaders plan to seek special permission to kill federally protected VULTURES & hang the carcasses from trees in an attempt to rid the town of the birds----They say the town has about 250 BLACK-HEADED VULTURES--which are picking off roof shingles & leaving waste near the homes--(vultures do not like to roost near their dead)---CITY HAS TO get special permit from wildlife officials to capture & kill them---WHICH ARE PROTECTED UNDER THE FEDERAL MIGRATORY BIRD ACT!!!!
OH HELEN!---I forgot ---you really love these BIRDS too!---ho!
Maybe they could relocate them...sure don't want to see them killed!
When Lib shows up with those "whale of a fish" we will know for sure he is into feeding more than one mouth!!!
well gee, that will be an attractive addition to the town, hanging dead vultures..imagine the smell:)
