That was so messy, I'll try typing again! Hidey is in the middle of the nest, that's why he looks so BIG! I actually saw the sun today!!Had to battle on the Beltway for Dr. appt., then had lunch & a Panda nap,so haven't been on here. Now it's din din time. Will try to get my Pond pics on here later ☺
Back from GeeGee's. She is really enjoying this beautiful Spring day. We put netting over all her flowers that the deer and groundhogs are nibbling and check all her bird houses. She has three sparrows with eggs and one black-capped chickadee with eggs so small they look like jelly beans:) This nest is new to us...it is so very neat and the outter part of the nest is made completely of beautiful moss.
Hidey reminds me so much of Dustin. We had a late lunch at GeeGee's and 2 hours later had Supper here. He had 2 deluxe cheeseburgers and 2 servings of broccoli and 2 glasses of chocolat malted milk. He will want a snack before going to bed:)
Good Evening Eagle Pals... got to take care of a few things but in case I miss anyone: This Blog is Awesome....sometimes I compare what I was doing this time last year..just before I signed on to become a Momster..(. Paula you remember, you had to walk me through a lot of it...) And what has taken place since, well, Wildlife Extravaganza for one.
I think I forgot to mention that I saw a ZEBRA SWALLOWTAIL this afternoon at Swinging Bridge, a newborn I think, small, delicate and so graceful. No pictures though.
Wanda: Have you ever thought about putting a cam in a birds nest? I have a close friend who did it last year and it was pretty uncomplicated.....Love the stories about what's going on at GeeGee's !
Oh yeah, Good evening to all my friends of fine feather and fur!
I went to the concert tonight and of course my baby boy was awesome. His girlfriend Kelsey is in the choir too. They are performing at Tamarack in Beckley on Saturday afternoon, so I am going to that and I will get to meet Kelsey's mom so that should be interesting!
Oh Sharon.... I am glad to be on the same time as you. Thank for your kind words... Another concert...wonderful. Beckley, Tamarack....that is fantastic! Remember, our new Sara is from Beckley !
And you are right, it is Swanging Bradge, so right! It was rocking today! xoxo ☺
I saw tufted titmice - a pair - chasing each other from tree branch to tree branch. It almost looked like one didn't have a tuft, and they must have had some sort of mating call because they were different sounds in addition to their usual song...
Woodpeckers all over the place, and chickadees!
And tonight, in the darkness, hundreds of Spring Peepers I bet ♪ ♫ ♫ ♪
I had a brown thrasher out in the yard today. First one I have seen this year. I have cowbirds out the ying-yang, Mr. and Mrs. Towhee. Can't wait for my rose-breasted grosbeaks to come back. I love spring and the birds coming back to me! God's Music Box gets louder every day!
Did you know that if you get zapped with a Taser gun, they have to be removed by medical personnel? Not like the stun gun, Taser guns really have Tasers.
Wow, I think a helicopter just flew over the sycamore tree!
Might be a MD search chopper on the river or something. It's that time of year! I'll have to tell you the story about my dad's Potomac River rescue when he was a boy sometime! I have newspaper clippings from the two DC papers!
Well, the night bandit is sneaking around....so I better started battening down the hatches... Will be back to say Good Night before I hit the pillows.
Tomorrow, is Friday....find some red to wear in honor of our Military Folks if you can...☺ ♥ xo
Thanks for all your kind encouragement...Needless to say, I was having a good time!
On the way home tonight, I passed about 10 very nice RV rigs, westbound on our Route 9 - not sure where they were headed to, but Spring Gobbler season in WV does not start for another week, so I think they were headed for some fun, like Lolly is about to do !
Thanks to Sharon and Sissy for helping us remember the victims of the tragedy at Virginia Tech two years ago today, Prayers for those that died, and all whom they left behind.
I know prayer works...happened two times for me tonight. Grateful Prayers.
A look at Loretta's magic and I headed for the feather pillows.
Nighty Night to some!☺ I was editing pics to put on & one of the scans started----making everything slow as molasses! So I really haqven't got any new ones on yet. Margy, isn't digital cam fun????Love your pics and looking fwd to more. I've been hearing little clunky noises from the cam--someone must be sitting close to the mike.
We are not going to be gone long. Probably just a few days. We will go to one campground and then go out from there. Taking the spotting scope as I understand the nest is a way from the road.
Nite Deb! Looked at your videos. Thanks! Missed a lot of action today. Hidey is growing up way too fast. Seemed like last years triplets were smaller for a longer time. :)
Puter is really slow...guess it's telling me it wants to go to sleep...everyones pics are just elongated colored strips! So I'll say g'night, mates and see you and pics in the morning! Prayers for all.
Night Everyone! Have a great time, Lolly! Great shots, Deb. Thx! I paused my spy scan so I can USE this machine. Hope to yhave pics on so they can be seen in the AM. (some are not great--bad weather & blur). I'm still hearing clattering noises--claw on mic maybe?
Babysan snoozin' at our nest, but he was preening a little while ago. Still hear those noises near the mic, so I guess that's where the parent/s are hanging out.
Hope you all have a good day... and that you get to see and do a lot of your favorite things.
Good morning everyone. Hope you got dried out some from all that rain. I had a beautiful day in a spot very dear to my heart. I will get pictures on sometime over the weekend. Read where our little one is getting to spend some time alone. Run over there and keep him/her company LOL. The gift is you will see a fly in or two also if you are patient :-) Off or coffee and dogtreats and later more pictures is the plan now. Got rain coming in for the weekend but sunshine for today.

Just saw a headstand poop shoot!
Margy picture of blue bells very pretty. Oh the times a Swinging Bridge.
Evening Loretta
Excuse the typos....duh

Must have been a swan or goose at Sidney nest
I checked the Hancock forum and they were all saying seagull on there, Paula.
It had been so white I thought there was also some snow in the nest.
Whoa...Hidey on the edge!
That was a very feathery seagull!
Hidey back in the middle of the bowl...you can really see feathers coming in all over...and his tail too :)
Feather hanging from adults beak lol
Kewl, you could see adult was on branch above cam...noise, wing and into the nest!
Lib's having sghetti now...
BBIALW
Hidey is getting food...where is he/she putting it??????
Hidey is getting so big. Isn't he just wonderful? Mauley
When I was leaving work Hidey was eating and he is still eating. Must be going to his feet and wings.
Back from GeeGee's. She is really enjoying this beautiful Spring day. We put netting over all her flowers that the deer and groundhogs are nibbling and check all her bird houses. She has three sparrows with eggs and one black-capped chickadee with eggs so small they look like jelly beans:)

Hidey reminds me so much of Dustin. We had a late lunch at GeeGee's and 2 hours later had Supper here. He had 2 deluxe cheeseburgers and 2 servings of broccoli and 2 glasses of chocolat malted milk. He will want a snack before going to bed:)
Hidey is so full, he can only flutter one wing...probably saying he has had enough!
The bottomless pit of a growing boy, Wanda!!!
Cleaning up all the leftovers.
What is trying to eat the camera?
That would be SPIDEY, Sara;)
If a spider sounds like that I don't want to see him.
LOL...Have you seen him yet, Sara?
I'm just waiting on Spidey to jump onto the lens.
Looks like the parent might have left to investigate the noise??
I knew a Steve Chase from East Tennessee, would this be the same one maybe??
I thought that was his leg but then it stopped. Need to hear the music like in Jaws when they are waiting on the shark.
Don't know about that Niece and Randy.
Sara, if you haven't seen Spidey yet, go to my profile page and click on JUST FOR FUN...he is the second photo down.
That is a big spider....
Hidey is alone in the nest!
Sara and Niece and Randy, this is TV night for many of us and that is why there aren't many comments on here tonight.
I understand tv night..lol..Greys Anatomy , Private Practice, and now ER's replacement, Southland..but I can't seem to leave the eagle cam, hmmm
An addiction warning should be posted on the main page!
LOL, having had 2 boys and 2 brothers, I certainly have seen my share of bottomless pits!
Nice Avatar, Niece and Randy!
N & R - you send send Steve an email through his profile on the front page of this blog...
I hope you mean the second avatar :) lol..I forgot I had the first avatar for another blog spot! Thought I better change it to fit the blog !
I like the warning on the Puleston Osprey cam page - "Warning, this camera provides an uncensored view of nature"
I will do that Paual, thanks.
Yes, the second!
Hey, Nature, Like the duck avatar too!

But the best part, is THE PEOPLE ~~ ☺ ♥ XO
Niece and Randy...Steve has lots of pics of himself on his blogs...do you recognize him?
Wanda:

Back soon...
And Margy, we are much the richer since you found us! :)
And, I thought you went to a "Swanging Bradge"???
Oh yeah, Good evening to all my friends of fine feather and fur!
I went to the concert tonight and of course my baby boy was awesome. His girlfriend Kelsey is in the choir too. They are performing at Tamarack in Beckley on Saturday afternoon, so I am going to that and I will get to meet Kelsey's mom so that should be interesting!

Woodpeckers all over the place, and chickadees!
And tonight, in the darkness, hundreds of Spring Peepers I bet ♪ ♫ ♫ ♪
I'm going to try to download a few pictures so I will be away for awhile.
Margy, are still going over there by yourself? You need a dog for protection or a Taser Gun or Pepper Spray!
I bet so too.
I had a brown thrasher out in the yard today. First one I have seen this year. I have cowbirds out the ying-yang, Mr. and Mrs. Towhee. Can't wait for my rose-breasted grosbeaks to come back. I love spring and the birds coming back to me! God's Music Box gets louder every day!
Helicopter flying over near NCTC -
If it's a medevac I will be seeing in here in just a few minutes
Did you know that if you get zapped with a Taser gun, they have to be removed by medical personnel? Not like the stun gun, Taser guns really have Tasers.
Wow, I think a helicopter just flew over the sycamore tree!
Helicopter has not flown by here yet, I am three blocks from City Hospital and when they come here, I know it!
Haven't heard any copter calls on scanner for Berkeley or Jefferson Cos.
Might be a MD search chopper on the river or something. It's that time of year! I'll have to tell you the story about my dad's Potomac River rescue when he was a boy sometime! I have newspaper clippings from the two DC papers!
To those turning in, sweet sleep. Heading for tub...will check back later.
Sharon, I found that out by watching COPS one night. I didn't know that anything actually punctured the skin. Owwwww!
Hedgie , thanks for the tip! I did not recognize the man in the picture however, another Steve Chase :)
Whew!
I just added about 15 pictures or so to Magpie's Roost link...
I need some practice, but YOU will see some of what I SAW today.
I'll create a separate link, maybe over the week-end, because I expect to take a whole lot of wildflower pictures in the weeks to come ☺
I think I am going to like this camera! ☺
Well, the night bandit is sneaking around....so I better started battening down the hatches...
Will be back to say Good Night before I hit the pillows.
Tomorrow, is Friday....find some red to wear in honor of our Military Folks if you can...☺ ♥
xo
Great pics, Margy.
And yours too, Loretta.
We like your camera too, Margy:)
Gonna hit it for tonight, catch ya'll in the morning!
Hugs to all ♥
Nite, Paula:)
Great pictures, Margie, I agree with Wanda, we like your new camera. Off to see Loretta's pictures.
Here I am getting on just as everyone is going to bed. LOL Went to church this evening and when I got home..Laurel called. We've been yakking!
Trailer in the drive. Will load tomorrow and we head out Sat. Rain expected tonight and tomorrow. Not fun to load in the rain!
Great pictures, Margie! You are doing great with your camera!
Going to catch a few before you go:
Thanks for all your kind encouragement...Needless to say, I was having a good time!
On the way home tonight, I passed about 10 very nice RV rigs, westbound on our Route 9 - not sure where they were headed to, but Spring Gobbler season in WV does not start for another week, so I think they were headed for some fun, like Lolly is about to do !

PS Sharon: Love your words "God's Music Box" - perfect, absolutely perfect.
Megan would like to see your Thrasher AND the Towhees make a visit in her yard!
xo Good Night....z z z z z I'll be up with the storks Friday ☺
Nighty Night to some!☺
I was editing pics to put on & one of the scans started----making everything slow as molasses! So I really haqven't got any new ones on yet.
Margy, isn't digital cam fun????Love your pics and looking fwd to more.
I've been hearing little clunky noises from the cam--someone must be sitting close to the mike.
Lolly, how long will you be in OK?Will you stay in one place and camp like your TX trip, or sightsee?
Checking in before heading back the hallway! It certainly has been a beautiful day in many different ways!
Good Night All
Peace to you & yours
Prayers for all needs being said
((((hugs)))) ♥
We are not going to be gone long. Probably just a few days. We will go to one campground and then go out from there. Taking the spotting scope as I understand the nest is a way from the road.
Night, Jo...
I am already down the hallway, so my next move will be into bed.
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL
Have fun Lolly and take photos:)
I am off to bed also. I'll look for your pictures in the morning, Loretta.
I did put up some videos of today's nest action on Nest Pictures.
Night everyone.
Nite Deb! Looked at your videos. Thanks! Missed a lot of action today. Hidey is growing up way too fast. Seemed like last years triplets were smaller for a longer time. :)

PS - If you are up early, look for the Moon, and then Jupiter and Venus in the Eastern sky...
I think yesterday in our parts, was one of the best days on record weather-wise.
