Thanks for the thread alert, Norma, and Thanks Steve for the New Thread ! Ditto Norma's greetings, Happy Easter Week-end to you
Norma
a few of our Momsters had noticed that several days ago, I had not really had much of a look until this morning...wonder if Steve has had a chance to see it...or has any ideas about it also.
Morning everyone from sunny western PA. I've been reading the blog a bit each day but can't keep up with you folks. Got to see both Lib and Belle with the little 'un for a while yesterday between appointments and making hot cross buns. Our little town didn't have any currants, so I used raisins for the buns, just as good.
My birding friend wants to look for shore birds today. I will hate to say no but I have to get ready for tomorrow. Everyone have a blessed EASTER.
Lynne
Oh Boy !
Now we can start all over again:
Happy Birthday Paula....hope you enjoy it in every way possible ! xo ☺ ♥ ♪ ♫
irannyblt! Hope it is a Great Day and Week-end for you too ! xo
Rain is blowing sideways at OUR Nest ! Woof !

MORNIN' BEAUTIFUL GRANNYBLT!----Delighted to hear from you this am!---I envy your sunshine--ho!---We are a wet gloomy bunch of 'BUNNIES' here!!---I have never tasted a hot cross bun!!---Are they as good as your home made bread?---Wishing you and your family a BLESSED EASTER too!!---
Now she is going to tent...what a wonderful Mother Eagle she is !
NatureNut could not find currants yesterday either!
Speaking of things going sideways, I think I am going to go horizontal for a few hours, maybe wake up to clearing skies.
Best Wishes, for a Good Day for All xoxo ♥ ☺

BWO - OSPREY in nest!----The 2 EAGLETS at BWE are just soaked---but sleeping--
Hot cross buns are just a slightly sweetened roll with traditionally currants and a little spice with a white cross in icing on top. They are to be eaten on Good Friday. I rarely make Christmas cookies to give, but I do the hot cross buns at Easter for the neighbors. My former neighbors from TX have e-mailed wondering where theirs are. Gotta get busy here. I'll try to be back later.
The BLUE HERRON site is AWESOME this am!---The 2 HERRONS are there & then there are several other birds flying----also saw a mating pair on the left---SPRING IS IN THE AIR!!
Happy Easter Weekend to Everyone!☺
AND
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PAULA!!!!XXXX

Wet & windy here. Couldn't get Live cam to open, but finally got still. Our osprey cam here isn't working either. This AM, could not see Mom eagle in the nest here. Sure she was down on the chick(s).
GRANNYBLT!----I see you are known far & wide for your baking!---That is a wonderful talent---which I never acquired!!---I could bake COOKIES---HERMITS---were a favorite--but my talent stopped there----Keep in touch---we miss you---
Made it to new thread! Yippee! Morning, Lynne from Lynn! Happy Easter weekend to you, and Steve and all other momsters/dadsters.
My dear Bill just brought me a beauiful hyacinth! He does it every Easter...it's one of my favs...and he's allergic!!

HEDGIE!!---I love to smell those flowers!!----I think they smell like EASTER---they are also a beautiful flower!!----Has your computer been broken?
Hi, Norma. I love hyacinths too. Cut some & added daffodils & perfumed my whole car. Any cut flowers have to go on top of the china cabinet where nosey kitties can't get them!
Norma, left you a long note on last thread explaining my computer issue!!!
Good Morning, Loretta...
We are all so excited about our Road Trip. The fact that we don't have to worry too much about the weather takes a LOAD off my mind!!
(Covered boat and bus). Do hope the day is warm and sunny, though:)
NATURENUT----How many kittens do you have?---Have you shared your kitty stories with SUZANNE?---She LOVES cats too!---I think she has 9!!-- I have learned to like them -from SUZANNE!!----Love DOGS!!---They just love you---no matter what!! ho!

MORNIN' MITZ!----Are you having EASTER at your house!?---Will be such fun with M&M!!!
here come the geese
Many times, Norma...which means I spend too much time on the puter, I guess...LOL! Probably happens at least once a month...but it happened when our new live stream cam came online, and I was having to re-download flashplayer and shockwave, so that was just..what, maybe 10 days ago?? ARGH!
going to my sil in Annapolis, but the M&M girls will be there, have not seen them in a couple of weeks
Hidey is getting too big to stay under adult
Viewing HH nest site!!----They predict that one egg might hatch this weekend or early next week!!! ----
good morning all.... i am desperate for help! i have tried everything to get the live cam of hidey. it won't come up. all the other cams are ok (on beakspeak) so i am not sure why hidey's doesn't come up. can anyone help me? i miss the little one!
HEDGIE---I remember that---but I thought it was because of the new program----That's why I was wondering if I could use the new program!----ho!---
Norma, We have 2 cats. Suzanne saw a video I made of the one cat playing "fetch" w/my husband. She started the game herself by bringing him a mousie & he had to throw it & she would return with it & wait for the next throw.
Hi, Wanda. Can't wait for our get together. I'm hoping for good weather too.Just checked my last spring pics & the leaves were just starting to come out on the trees near the eagle nest.Hope you'll be able to see something.
MITS----That sounds like fun!---The little ones will make it wonderful!!!----ENJOY!
P.S. Leaves coming out in mid-April last year. Might be later this year w/our strange weather.
NCTC EAGLES' NEST
Norma, do you mean the Internet Explorer 8 upgrade that we were talking about at the time? I haven't had any trouble with it! In fact, it has one very good feature....if puter freezes up or throws you out, it automatically reconnects to all sites that were open before the problem!
Jqamie, some of us had to uninstall flashplayer and shockwave and reinstall from adobe.com. But sometimes if too many people are viewing a cam, it can prevent others from accessing the picture!
I have been watching the PA PEREGRINE FALCON on her nest----I swear--I could see movement in her back moving up & down some---DAD also flew in & out---But don't think they are expecting anything until May?-----IGNORE ME!
HEDGIE---It was the last update we had-------
Not sure what you are referring to, Norma....
Are you going to come join us for the field trip??? Please??
Loretta...only 10 days til we see you!
hi, hedgie... i did try doing that yesterday and it still won't come up. not sure why i can get the other cams and not this one. i have tried all times of day also. i also sent an email to steve to see if he had any ideas... i haven't heard back from him. i am so bummed!
Jamie did you try the link I put up?
Helen, thanks for helping out our newcomers...I wonder if they know to click on your blue link to get what they are looking for?
You know that we are going to miss you and your sisters on our trip, but, I know Arizona will be wonderful! We will take other Road Trips later on:)
mitts, yes, i did. i have tried to get it all kinds of ways... no luck. just a blank white spot where the cam should be.
sorry, Jamie, I don't know what else to tell, except to email outdoortv.com, and there is someone named Chris who might help, some people on blog know the direct email address, I don't:(
thanks, Wanda, will miss all of you, but am definitely looking forward to the Arizona weather, supposed to be in the 80's all next week:)
osprey at BWO, lots more sticks there too.
I don't know Chris's address, either. Maybe Red or Jim or Indiana Dave will chime in with advice. They seem to be the computer gurus, although a lot of our gals are good, too...seems like all have a thing or two or three to teach us!!!
well Red is the IT man, hey Red if you are out there, Jamie needs help:)
Jamie, you are getting the still cam, right? That's what I keep open all the time (in pop-up), and only use live cam periodically.
well, i can't thank you all enough for trying to help me.... i am enjoying a few other cams like the penn falcon. but my favorite is still hidey !
okay, now i feel dumb....where is the still cam?
Hello again. I'm back. So... have I missed anything while I was gone?
Wow. Hidey sure has gotten bigger!
hedgie, i found the still cam and it is working
Good morning! Started a comment a few minutes ago, then we had a family reunion in the nest that I had to watch. Including Hidey doing his stand on his head poop shoot!
Jamie...McAfee was keeping me from seeing the cam until I approved the sight. Just a possible suggestion.
i will check back later.. have to tend to my flock (3 parrots) have a great day, everyone. j.
Hi, Lolly! How's the weather in Texas?? Hope you have a lovely day...we don't!
Will talk to you fine fowl folks later...have to leave for lunch date in an hour....gotta let Margy's "fairy" finish her work!
TTFN!
Again, good morning all. Just checking out the cams and then I have to get busy cleaning house. In the spring I neglect the house and spend all my time outdoors. Not today however, I have to clean and cook.
Hidey getting a good meal. And listen to those chirps!
Jo, we will not be hiding eggs outside tomorrow. Will be doing it indoors. We have rain and thunderstorms predicted for tomorrow. Good thing as Texas is burning up. We could smell smoke the last two days. Not good!! Have not been outside today. In fact, I better not step out as it is hard to get me back in!
Lynn, it is 57 here and cloudy. Not much wind today and that is good. It has been fanning the fires west of here.
Have eggs all ready for Zach tomorrow. Bought baby animals (toys) to put inside the eggs. He has all the adult animals, you know, the ones in the cases at the stores. Now he will have the few babies I could find. LOL I will have to tape the baby giraffe to an egg as it won't fit inside.
Also, found a baby duck that quacks and flaps its wings when you feed it with a bottle. I know, I know, that is not the way a baby duck eats, but it is so cute.
Hidey just had a great meal in the rain and adult is once again sheltering Hidey.
beautiful view of tiger at NZ
Cute, cute, cute picture of baby OK sitting right beside mom on the cam right now.
Switch at OK. Fun to watch the eagles land and fly off on the wide angle cam.
On our cam...hard to keep Hidey covered. Getting too big!
Good morning all especially Norma our #1 Eagle mom today and every day. Stopping in to say a very
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PAULA She has done so much for this blog. Thank you. BBL
Ok, as much fun as it is to watch the cams, I MUST get with it!! I MUST clean house!
BBL
LOLLY, that is how we feed baby ducks here in West Virginia;)
How's your knee today?
Hi Ceil, bye Ceil......:)
Good Afternoon All! All the nests look great today. It is hard to cover Hidey from the rain even though the egg well is being made deeper. Hopefully the sun will shine tomorrow. Especially if I wish to have an Easter egg hunt out-of-doors.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY #1 PAULA
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
JO'S FORCAST FOR TOMORROW...
Sunday
Sunny. Highs in the upper 50s. Northwest winds 10 to 15 mph.
Checked back...one more time. LOL
Wanda, my knee is much better, but still sore. I am hoping I can get back to my aerobic exercises Monday. I am now down 28 pounds and want to do at least 12 more pounds. At least! If I have gone to all this trouble I really want to get it down.
Thanks Mits for the Sunshine Forecast!!
Looks wet at BWE even though that forecast just says 'overcast'. One eaglet is under cover but not enough room for the other one.
I have been watching the Portland Red tail hawk's nest - can't see any hatchlings yet!

**Good Morning**
**Everyone**
Jim
Just saw red-tailed hawk in Portland leave the nest
All 3 beautiful unhatched eggs are there
Waiting now for a return of adult
Hawk has returned and is incubating those soon-to-be hatched eggs!
can't wait to see them:) morning Jim
Also,
** HAPPY BIRTHDAY **
** PAULA **
JIM
that is one cute-looking chick at OK
presents wrapped, fridge cleaned out, got to get nails done, and go to the grocery store for fixings for tomorrow, don't know if we will go to Easter Vigil tonight or just wait till tomorrow.....
Hidey is alone. Didn't see when adult left.
Mom just moved the dud egg under her at OK and did the waddle
Hey there, Jim!
Mits - I wish I could be out running the errands! Little things I would be doing for tomorrow - relying on all others this year.
Jo, OC has been really crowded this week
I am home from watching the Prairie Chickens boom and strut. The pictures are downloading, but they were a ways away so there won't be any good close-ups.
that's OK, Jo, take the year off.
welcome home Deb:)
Dud eggs are problems for birds.....
Glad you had a good morning venture, Deb
Everything here is under control & no new news!
I need to check out cams for OC
Mei and Tai are enjoying their frosty treats.
can see people walking past the NBG nest
osprey back in Finland, just waiting
FEEDING bwe AND OPSREY bwo
Peggy's Cove is dismal looking today.
Not many visitors this weekend.
Red-tail rolled the eggs & then waddled back down on them.
do we know when RTH is due to hatch?
RTH Info: April 6 was our projected earliest date of hatch. However there is no reason for concern. A variety of factors including cold temperatures can slow the rate of development.
osprey looks like it is going to bolt at FINLAND
So their projected date is already off by 5 days.
both osprey at Cape Henelopen, there has been a battle there with 2 females and a male
I am trying to decide whether or not I can get out of here tonight or tomorrow for Easter Sunday Mass. For a month I have received communion in the home.
I would love to go - probably will - Just need to turn off oxygen at the vigil if I go while the candles burn.
won't the vigil be too long for you, Jo?
I got my wish, slept, and woke up to clearing skies
Yay Deb You got to see your prairie chickens... the Early Birds get the Chickens!
Can't believe it, after 9 pm in Finland and we can still see the bird on the nest! It's been a long dark winter but now we get the prize!
And so good to read that you will be seeing your little M&M girls Sunday, Mits - Now THAT is the way celebrate EASTER ! xo
what ever happened to Todd Harless our photographer at NCTC?
I think we just had a very brief Adult visit at OUR nest...caught it on still cam...gone on live :(
can't wait to get the little buggers in my arms:), Margy....and when summer comes to Finland it is practically light most of the day
Todd is still there but in a different job capacity I think.
sound is gone on my nest, and looks like the live feed is frozen for me right now, let me reboot
Margy Do you work Tonight into Sunday?
Last year I remember sunset led to sunrise in no time flat!
Jo Good to hear you are getting cranked up for some Easter fun Sunday...that vigil Mass can sure be a looooooong one The candles are pretty but I have always been very nervous, especially when the Knights of Columbus come around and light them at Christmas, with those feathery plumes on their head cover...
I also rebooted my live feed but I guess it wasn't frozen - Hidey still right where he was earlier.....
Not yet... JO.....I am a little fragile for the week-end but supposed to be off. Since I was in there for 7 hours overnight, I might not be the first one picked for a shift...
I will probably catch Mass at Hedgesville in the morning.
I agree our Live cam seems a little off-kilter...seems like it is more like a Still Cam...I just reset too, same thing...
I have Loch of the Lowe's up with some wonderful bird and water sounds....Isla roosting on still just one egg I guess, do not see any updates....
Going to take a break
Hope to see Deb's new pics upon my return
BBL
I do not have sound at NCTC either....
Poor Jamie! Hope he can get this live feed up soon. I am going to backtrack and find cmoise's email address from the first or second day our cam was re-doine.
bb soon
Osprey at Finland Water, just left...
Isla has TWO Eggs at Loch of the Lowe's ! Their page has not listed it yet....
roflmbo, Margy, I just got a picture in my head of the Knights' with their plumes near the candles....
I figured you might be able to picture that Mits ....
:)
still no sound after reboot, and don't see any movement. I should be seeing some things blowing in the breeze....got to go....later.
What do you think, are we "froze up" at NCTC ?
Or is Hidey just being that still with that footsie sticking out ?
well if it is on the fritz, we are out of luck till Monday:(
Okay Bye Mits ☺
I have to go soon too....
Okay still and live are different now, so something is working
so, I think Still is refeshing, and Live is Not Live...
for now, anyway.
On the still cam - his foot is in a different position.
Live Feed looks the same so it should be working . Just not sure at this point.
Will know better when an adult flys in or Hidey sits up!
BBL to check it out.........
I could not find cmoise's email address...nor can find a way to contact Jamie....so maybe, someone here can help out when they have a chance...sounds like Jamie has been through the paces but at least found the Still Cam!
TTFN - Best Saturday Afternoon (and still Morning for our West Coast pals) to all.
xo ☺ ♥
Our Live Feed is definitely NOT LIVE right now...
:(
Kind of strange, my computer loaded up all kinds of cookies and started running slowly, then I had trouble closing OUT of the live feed. Maybe there is some sort of upgrade going on somewhere..
Parent Our Nest right Now !
AND MY LIVE FEED IS WORKING AGAIN
HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY
With Sound ! I got a hum, but I don't care !
I did shut the site down, (for the third time) and when I brought it back up, all was running again ☺
But I do have to go TTFN now
xo ☺
* Thanks to the Powers that Be...for fixing whatever was on the Fritz *
Found some buried food goodies...time for a feeding now ☺
I hear Blue Birds at OUR Nest !
in the midst of the Wind Noises..
Okay, 'Bye....
What makes you think it is not live now. I have sound and the pic is the same on both still and live, or close anyway.
Ok, read a few blogs back. I think it is running just fine.
I was just taking a peek in between jobs. Have made deviled eggs, and picked up. Jack vacuumed, so now I need to mop and dust.
BBL
Was that nice fish just brought in or has it been there?
I have found an address for anyone having a problem getting our cam:
Chris Moise (Outdoor TV) [Edit]
info@myoutdoortv.com
Hope it helps those who are having difficulties seeing our beauties.
That fish is as big as Lib! Could be a trout. Yum!
Big poop shoot, so funny to watch Hidey try and balance.
Okay now, the Baton has been well handed over to our afternoon Eagle People...
I am going to head out to Morgan County for some Kid Fun.
Take Care, all...xoxo ☺ ♥
You might have heard that it's not looking too good for the second chick at PH either. Nobody's seen any movement since early this morning. Sad thing.
K 10 is still shading the chick, but he may be waiting for the lady to return and deal with it.
I hope it pulls through, time will tell.
I've got to do some shopping, hair cutting, etc. Talk to you later, have a good day.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
How sad at PH, I imagine they are pretty upset on the IWS forum. :(
Today's pictures are posted on Deb's Photos.
I am off to the store, BBL.
I'm back from my errands, read and see that cam is working fine again:)
Hidey did a few wing stretches and is now settling down
Hey, Deb...you finally got a shot of the Prarie Chicken strutting his stuff. I can remember reading about that when I was in school and thought it would be so cool to see it!
parent at PH is eating, don't see it feeding anything
as usual, great pictures, Deb.....
Lib is back
feeding our nest
Maine cam #2 is finally back online and Mom just showed me her 2 eggs
wow, that was a quick takeoff
I am back from the store, just had some last minute stuff to get. I am making the salad tonight, then everything else is easy for tomorrow.
Happy Easter to all you eagle lovers.I have been sick all week
and haven't been on the computer
much.I went and checked on the eagles on friday afternoon and they
are doing fine,and i got some super
good photos of the male,they only
have two young this year.I will
post the photos soon.
Indiana Nesting Eagles----Dave
sorry you have been under the weather, Dave....take care:)
Sorry you've been sick, Dave...NO FUN! Will look forward to seeing your new shots.
I'm still in jail, so can't check email..feel very lucky to be able to get on blog! My time should be up soon!!
Got my dressing (stuffing) made for tomorrows' feast...sure is nice to know that I'm not the hostess!
Sorry you were feeling sick, Dave. I can't wait to see your pictures!
Fly in our nest.
Eagle is fighting with a stick. So far the stick is winning.
She won that battle, now on to the next branch, it is a big one.
Now that has been some really hard work happening in our nest. Did you all see her right up at the camera? Thelma asked if they were trying to make it 2 stories.
She was really attacking those branches.
Got some major nestorations going on in our nest.
I saw Sharon, she found some nestovers now and is having a snack.
Belle tried to move that BIG log around, but didn't have much success. Eating some leftovers now.
Hidey is sound asleep....Lib took off for parts unknown;)
Hidey's awake now...probably hungry as a bear!
Yes, saw that, Sharon...wonder what she has in mind. She tore into that log like she was angry about something. She and Lib may have had an argument. LOL
Hidey sounds so sweet.
Look at how deep that egg bowl is now!
Those nestovers HAVE to be NASTY!!
Hope it's not too late to do some fishing...Hidey sounds hungry. It is still daylight here, but won't be for long!
Parent is back with a snack.
No snack...bedtime:)
Parent put fluffy blanket on Hidey, but he's not happy about it. Whining like a baby:)
Parent is gone...now what? Hidey stopped whining.
Belle is back and still no snack for Hidey. Whining again.
OUCH!!
feed that chicket:)!
STEPPED ON HIDEY...now Hidey is getting up.
