RED!---I understand you are taking a photography class!!----Bet you are enjoying it!---I want to do that sometime too!
I'm glad I got to see our little one being fed this morning before I have to leave. It is so so cute.
Maybe God knew Mom and Dad needed a break this year. From all the feedings and so on. Our parent keeps looking over head; as if something is up there that shouldn't be. Go Liberty take care of whatever it is..Liberty Dee Man!
Norfolk chat room is saying #3 has hatched:)
Thanks HELEN!----I checked that site earlier---they hadn't announced the THIRD REBEL!---awwww!----I am so happy for them!!----All the troubles they have gone through!!!
Not a photography class Norma. A Computer graphics glass on how to fix old torn and wrinkled photos and other things.
nothing official from DGIF yet, but the loyal watchers are saying it is true
WHOA RED!----I am certainly impressed!---That art is really needed!----Even I could use that talent!----That is wonderful!
NORFOLK has announced as yet!---But DAD is there in the nest---& LADY NORFOLK does have that pained look she had SUNDAY!----
Good morning, what just got delivered to the nest, gross!
ND has been announced as a federal disaster!!!-----means they will get money to help!
I will check when I get back on NBG. Let me know if yes a newborn??
I see all three at NBG, I hope the two older ones aren't too mean to it!
YES, #3 is there on the cam now at NBG
this is going to be tough, #3 is pretty far behind.....
Well, thank you Steve and John! Any effort is appreciated! That would be great:)
AND WHOO-HOO - NBG's third chick is finally out as I'm sure you all know! SO cool to get to watch these eaglets come out of an egg and interact with the adults on these cams!
Got to work, plants are calling me... Have a great day everybody:)
Sorry you team lost last night Deb, was a close one
GOOD MORNING TO YOU ALL...
What on earth is in our nest...looks like a piece of clothing??
Morning everyone!
Gadzooks, I see a Big squirrel (I think) in our nest! That family will have to go to Weightwatchers!
Could be a fox or a cat...eeewww!
I don't know what that is in the nest. Not a squirrel, way too big. Could be part of deer carcass.
it has a face and a beak
Standing by...
Standing by...
Standing by...
she dragged that sucker across the nest
10-4:)
MORNIN' DEB---MEGAN---NATURENUT---!WANDA-----When I first looked---I thought it looked like a chicken head---with feathers!----DEB--It appears that BELLE doesn't know what it is either!!!---ho
LATER---Study group & lunch date!!
I don't think it is any kind of bird with that long curled tail.
from the looks of the face and beak, chicken is a good guess.
Good morning fine unfeathered friends!!
I wish I had taken a pic
When I first saw yucky breakfast, it was at 10 o'clock & you could see hindleg & furry tail.
Did anyone get a photo of that varmint? I didn't move fast enough:(
Me too, Helen. I didn't think it would get moved so soon & was rather gross.
on the front page of the Washington Compost this a.m. there is a story of twin clouded leopards born at the Zoo's CDC in Front Royal VA yesterday, pics are adorable, tried to do a tiny url for article but did not work
I have pictures, I'll post them.
Was trying to get a glimpse of new NBG baby before I head to work, But....Hope they do a new slideshow soon.
thanks Deb, then if it was furry with the pointed nose, a fox????
Pictures are up on nest pictures.
sure NBG will be on it as soon as it can, #3 has to contend with the two older stonger eaglets
eagle at BWO
I think she tossed it out of the nest???
It's has such a weird looking face, it seems like no fur?
That would be wonderful, Steve.
Good luck John!
Morning all eaglet watchers! Great news from Steve...hoping it all works out! Congrats to NBG on #3!
I don't see this varmint you all are talking about...but looked at Deb's captures....where did it go? Did Belle toss it out? Very strange looking thing, whatever it was.
Nice article in our local paper about Jen Miller, the young lady from MD state parks who brought the eagle to Open House, and her work with the birds and reptiles in MD. I will try to scan it and send it out in an email.
well I don't see it in nest anymore.....Steve run over to the nest and see if it is under the sycamore....please:)
Wow, Cherry Blosson festival starts this weekend....anybody been downtown to see if they are close to popping yet???
the are predicting peak to start around April 1st , last time I checked.....will go and try to find the cam from last year of tidal basin, Lynn
CO just turned eggs, I didn't see a chick.
Sorry, I forgot to say Good Morning!
Helen, post the link if you find it, please!
Wow, not sure what that earlier furry catch was...my guess is part of a deer.
Thanks, Deb for posting the varmint in our nest. Gene couldn't figure it out either. Could be a fox or a small dog. It must have not tasted good...it is gone now!
CHERRY BLOSSOM WEB CAM
does not look like it is turned on yet, but soon
Good Morning All!
WOW! Glad you caught that pic... I would never have imagined that something that large could have been brought into the nest. I remember last year the Bloody Deer Kill but this is really Mystery Meat! Yes Steve, go check out the bottom of the tree!
Your plan for more bandwidth will do the trick for our Live Feed! WHoo Hoo!
I enlarged the picture and put that on Nest Pictures, don't know if that will help, I think it makes it too fuzzy.
I guess it could be the skin of a deer with no meat on it and that is why it got thrown overboard.
Hope Steve checks it out...if he sees it, he is surely as curious as we are.
Thanks, Mits.
Email on it's way....hope you can open it...it's an image file, not a word document.
Still can't make it out, Deb!! Definitely is mystery meat--or hide!
** GOOD MORNING **
** eVERYBODY **
** oooRAH! FOR **
** #3 AT NBG **

Jim
I sent the picture to Steve.
Norma, floods in ND are far from me. I am in southern SD right near the NE border.
Helen, it was a good game, SDSU led all the way until about the 2 minute mark. They still did well for their first tourney at that level.
I took a look at Deb's pics of the mystery prey that Lib brought in; and I think it "might be" a blanket or a gunny sack...something man made.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Now that I am caught up, it is time to get some stuff done.
It could be a deerskin left over from the hunting, but I don't think it is marked like any deer I've seen.

Jim
#3 at NBG:
There is a picture of the new one in the official blog on their site. And if you go to the Maine Blog for Norfolk, they have pictures and at least one video clip where you can see the new fuzzy-bobbly.

Jim

2nd eagle just arrrived at NBG to help with feeding
Eagle up, our nest.
GOOD MORNING!☺☺
Just watched a feeding at NBG. Sooo cute! Thought I saw a third but was not sure, got on here and saw that there are three. Now we will worry about the third one. Oh, dear!
Concerned too, about OK. Is is going to be only one?
Well, we were told we were going to have thunderstorms, but nothing has developed yet. Chance goes up this afternoon, so prayers for more rain.
eaglets up at NBG
Glad NBG got the third hatch...keeping fingers crossed for littlest eaglet!
Feeding our nest
And looks like the fish stockpile has grown....can see at least 3-4 in the nest, most around 7-8 in the nest.
Deb - sorry your team lost, sucks when they lose at the very end like that....but it was a good first tournament.
Hmmm wonder if John is playing with the feed...
Sounds like HI might have just one egg...and OK one chick...
Oh, Jo....have fun with the new baby! He will be so happy in his ggm's arms!!!
Oh wow, Jo! Cuddle and love that little bundle of joy! I am so jealous. I LOVE to hold newborns!
I am off to eat breakfast. Ladies, the weight is still coming off! hee! hee! It is about 23 pounds now.
BBL
WEIGH TO GO LOLLY!!!! :)
Hey, Lolly, is Jack still walking BEHIND you? Tee Hee!
Your progress is wonderful!
Sharon, how's the tummy?
I would also, love to hold little Donivan:) More pictures, please.
Love that little family in Germany. We are getting to see the little girls grow up:)
I need to get dressed, before I get thrown out of the PJ club!
Ha Ha deb thanks for captureing the mystery meal. Checke dout pictures hmmm guess its not amink. Oh and i fed your hamsters. :) So don't let him sucker you into thinking he is hungry right now.
Just now sitting down for brunch went to grocery on way home from overnight shift, then of course stopped for coffee and dog treats well I don't drink coffee while I work all night but there is no rest for the weary if we don't visit for dog treats.
MeMa Jo I get chills for you as I picture you surorudned with all that love and holding that bundle of joy. I agree pictures pictures with ggm in them too please :-)
This news realease just in:
RICHMOND(AP) -- Suspended NFL star Michael Vick has left a
federal lockup in Kansas, apparently bound for Hampton Roads for a
bankruptcy hearing next week
I remember reading Deb's report that Loraine at the Kent site thought they would not nest there this year, but I don't recall if the change of mind has been recorded here.
Loraine says the pair have been back and are acting more amorously than usual. And she also thinks the snows and inclement weather might be the cause of the delay.
She mentioned photos, but I didn't find any, so I put that question on the site a minute ago.

Just posted photo of norfolk and 3 eaglets on the For the love of Eagles Blog
Noroflk 3 chicks
Yesterday I was at my local Wal-Mart buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my two dogs and was in the checkout line when woman behind me asked if I had a dog.
What did she think I had, an elephant?
So since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.)
Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's butt and a car hit us both.
I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard. Wal-Mart won't let me shop there anymore.
Great shot, Glo. Thanks.
It seems to have gotten right into the swing already. And for some reason it doesn't look a lot smaller than #2 in that photo.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
That's fairly old news, Jim, as far as I know they haven't been seen in the nest in weeks. The Wildwatch website was updated yesterday with this message:
Update March 2009:The Kent nest is currently empty and it does not look like the eagles will be using it this season. Check out the new 2009 Down Under complete with photos.
an oldie but a goodie, Red:)
Hahaha. Very funny, Red.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
eaglets at NBG were born Sat, Sun and Wed, #3 is significantly smaller than the other two.
Too bad they aren't going to use the nest, I wonder if they have a back-up one somewhere nearby?
Thanks, Deb. I must have read the dates on the posts wrong.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
yes, Deb, even though she sees them occasionally, think time is running out for that pair this year, if the door has not already shut.
I guess fairly old is strong, about 2 weeks or so.
Yes, Red....have always loved that tale!!!!
Deb you have mail:)
Look at those cute big yellow feeties on Snow White at BWE
LOL, love that story, Red.
Couple minutes ago was able to see clearly all 3 NBG chicks!! ☺ ☺ ☺
I was at GeeGee's yesterday and saw a goose nesting on the root ball of a fallen sycamore tree. I took a picture through her window, but is is not very sharp. I am going to take the new camera and get another shot and compare the two. The first shot is on Wild and Wonderful, if you would like to take a peek.
They're still in view. Afraid baby is getting popped.
Our chick has been alone in nest for 5 minutes or so
OMG I just got to see a poop shoot! And I got video!!!
And the video froze at just the right time!!
chick watching stick moving
Think Belle just arrived and Lib left....or the other way around...
BBL...
Interesting goose shot, Wanda! Hope you can get a close-up! Wonder if you could walk over close to the fence w/o spooking her?
Paula, are you posting the poopr shoot?
Suz said that Belle was feeding chick off that "thing" earlier after dragging it closer to egg cup.
sea eagle at Finland
I'll be leaving shortly to go visit my lung doctor. Need some help with my breathing. Don't think its the dog food diet.
I watched her feeding the chick some of that thang too. After she ate some herself.
road kill??
Both eagles feeding at NBG, Hope that helps the new little one from being pecked too much.
stupid blogger cop

“3rd Chick Hatched”
The 3rd eaglet at the Norfolk Botanical Garden hatched this morning! Early camera viewers caught glimpses of movement that looked enticingly like a third chick was hatching at about 7:12 am. It was difficult to get a clear view however, and we couldn't absolutely confirm the chick until shortly after 9am.
In this image you can see the third chick raise its head as the adult female feeds the siblings. The youngest eaglet is still a bit damp and tired but the fact that it is interested in the food being offered is a good sign. Once it is able to raise its head the adults will begin to feed it as well.
posted by VDGIF Wildlife Biologist at 9:43 AM
Lynn, if I walked down to the fence, I don't thing I would get a very good shot. I would be down too low. Maybe if I stood on a ladder:) I will give it a try, with the new camera.
no ladder, Wanda, we don't need another broken leg!
I also saw our chick do a poop shoot a few days ago...changing it's own diapers now;)
OH, OK, Helen. Maybe Gene's extra heighth will do the trick:)
that is better:)Wanda
Co eagle getting up, see three whole eggs.
both eagles at NBG
Just watched a feeding at NBG, only saw a little bit of pecking, mom sat right on top of that. Tag team feeding seems to help cut down on it. Ahhh, dad is feeding mom!
Redoubt blew again this morning, but ash only went to about 15,000 feet.
Good luck Red. Hope he can find something to help you.
Look at all the vittles in our nest.
Is that 'thang' over there about 3 o'clock?
A small explosion occurred at Redoubt volcano at 05:12 AKDT (1312 UTC). The cloud height is estimated to be about 15,000 ft and is drifting north to northwest of the volcano. The event lasted about 10 minutes.
Working on the video...
Yes, that is the "thang" back in the nest. They must have buried it earlier. Can't wait to see the first poop shoot!
Yes, Red, sure hope the doctor can help you out!
No, Wanda....no ladders!!!!
Red, what are you using now? Does he have you on Spiriva? I find it helps ALOT!! And, of course, albuterol inhaler on occassion.
doubt that Re-Doubt is finished yet..
little chick is up
now down
Has there been any hint that Redoubt could do a Mount St. Helens???
Eaglet alone...not hidden this time :-)
Chicklet alone in nest...with lots of food!!!
looks like she is passed out from all the feedings
Video posted on EM blog...I did it in youtube, so we could see it better :-)
Looks as if he's draped over egg!
It had calmed down, until this latest eruption, the 6th eruption since it started on Sunday.
Ha, very good, Paula! The way the cam froze it is the longest poop shoot ever!
Almost forgot to post this....
CT Osprey Cam Update from Sherri at Maine Forum (she also lives near the nest)
Lola and Kidd are back! She asked about the cam status...they are hoping to have it up in a few days.
Here's a link to Sherri's pics...
Pics on Maine Forum
Yes, the cam finally froze at the right moment!!
Back to work....
Chicklet still alone
Neck is getting strong. Seems very alert, too. Good boy!
that was great Paula, babies '1st poop shoot"
Afternoon snack time. Isn't he precious?
are we eating more of the thang???
There is an Osprey at the Puleston site.
parent, eaglets and half of fish at BWE
You are right, Redoubt isn't done:
A small explosive event occurred at 10:17 AKDT this morning. The plume from this event was not detected by radar, indicating that it did not rise above approximately 12,000 ft asl or contained very little ash. This explosion triggered a flowage event on the north flank of the volcano as indicated by seismicity.
Paula, video is priceless!!! He sure worked his way into position for it...and got really good distance for such a little guy!! LOL!!!!
oh wow, Deb:)
off to the zoo for cam duty...cu later.....we split too:)
And shot it inbetween all the fish!!
Two osprey at Puleston!
