Hello There

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I do believe she has control over where she is flying because I know she goes over the edge of the nest and comes back. Heart attack just now!

glo said...

ha ha hi MeMa Jo

glo said...

yes thats the second time she has done that. Maybe she intentionally heads into the big gust of wind to just well get some excitement going and feel the wind beneathe her wings before venturing too far.

Laynie said...

Sharon... well, I wish that were true for me, but we just got the word that they are going to a new program shortly... more of a "Point and Click" and so far the docs are very happy with it. ALL the doctors will never do it, but enough that many of us will lose our jobs. I'm just praying that once they get going on it they are not as happy as they are now about it. We are aleady 75% on Voice Recog., so much of my work is editing now.

glo said...

checking out the nestovers now

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, Laynie, I hate to hear that. I type on about 5 different accounts for the company I work for. Maybe you should change jobs if it gets too bad. I love the job I have. Being the proofreader that I am, I would love editing too I think. Right Glo? :)

Laynie said...

I didn't think I would like editing, but I love it! But, in my case I am paid salary for my full time job. I have a part-time job as well, which is as an IC. If you are working for a transcription company they would pay less for editing, so in that respect I'm lucky. I've worked for Transcription Companies or for my own private accounts my whole career, up to 3 years ago. I love getting the benefits and paid time off.

glo said...

well YES Sharon could certainly edit just as well but I too hope since you love the job as it is, that it stays that way for you as long as you want it to.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Liking what you do makes it so much easier to get up in the morning. I am so grateful. I am not sure what the editors at Med-Scribe make. I have done the extra work for doctor's offices but find that the self-employment tax eats up what I make so I am, for right now, just sticking to my full time job.

glo said...

I love paid time off too. Did I mention I am starting a 2 week vacation today and actually still plan to reture mid July.

Laynie said...

Good for you Glo. Well, if I were closer to being able to retire I guess I wouldn't be so nervous about this, but since I support myself and have a while to go yet, it's scary. I guess I better learn how to say "do you want fries with that"... the way the job market is!! :)

Ok... off to lunch. (yes, I actually even get a lunch). lol

Mema Jo said...

I just received from the Strawberry Pickers (Jenny Kristen Mojo and kids)
2 bowls of fresh sun ripened juicy red red strawberries. Luscious!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

That is wonderful Glo!! I am so happy for you. Where will you work next? :) ☺

glo said...

Well while I still have Dex I plan to not work BUT he and I will volunteer sometime at the shelter and I will still do their stats for grants. Depends on how the money holds up I can say "Do you want fries with that too " np. so MTBR but not for a while I hope if ever.

floralgirl said...

Yes, I want fries with that....

deb said...

Me, too. I wanted to stay retired forever, too. Oh well, that is life! Sounds like you have had an exciting day so far. Hidey is so calm now.

deb said...

Who are your special visitors going to be, Glo? Could it be a granddaughter??

glo said...

Hey Megan around here anyway the latest is to dip fries into a Wendy's frosty. They say its delicious, so I guess the next question would be and would you like a frosty too.

floralgirl said...

I would love a chocloate frosty, but I am not gonna dip fries in it, that sounds bizarre. I'm suddenly starving, gotta find more food.
Breeze feels great here, 10 to 15 mph, and sun is in and out of the clouds. Gave up on rain and watered everything I planted the past 2 days.

deb said...

I see three eggs at BWO, hatching should start there in a couple of days, I believe.


Back to work for me.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Wow, Hidey went way above the nest and all I could see was the shadow.

Lori O. said...

Hello Hidey Momsters!

Did I miss anything?

I saw where Sharon wrote how she goes out over the nest and comes back...I've seen that too.

Ice cream sure sounds good! LOL

Lori O. said...

I saw that hovering, too, Sharon.

Paula asked the other day if Hidey had done that yet... said it was something they've all done before fledging.

Lynne2 said...

Hi everyone and Happy Birthday Lori! I've been so busy this week but have kept an eye on the babies and tried to catch up on the blogs here and there. Hidey has been doing a lot of hovering...how long now do you think before he/she goes?

Lori O. said...

Deb, what is BWO (sorry I'm a newbie) and what kind of eggs will be hatching?

Lori O. said...

Thanks Lynne. It's been a great day. :)

Hidey's given lots of scares today to everyone watching.

Lynne2 said...

I'll say! My husband and I are leaving tomorrow really early to go camping (my first time!) And won't be back til late Sunday and I'm hoping Hidey will still be at the nest!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

BWO is Blackwater osprey cam.

Lori O. said...

Thanks Sharon.

Lolly said...

♫♫♫
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday dear Lori
Happy Birthday to you
........and many moooooore!♫♫♫♫
Hi All! Went straight to the yard this morning. We had to get it mowed, weed eated, trimmed, and blown early. Up to 92 right now. But, no humidity so really in the shade it is comfortable.

WOW! The nest really sounds windy!

Lolly said...

Need to get to straightening the house. 20 to 30 women coming in the morning for a covered dish brunch. Should be fun! Every one buys funny, age related birthday cards and the honorees have to read the cards out loud. We laugh a whole lot!

Lynne2 said...

Hi Lolly ....and bye! Hope you have a great brunch tomorrow and a great weekend, too!
Everyone have a great and safe weekend! I have to go get packed for camping now....

ceil said...

It was good to read the update on Odin. All seems to be well again. Richard said he had to go lie down. LOL

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

That is some definite hovering!

Lolly said...

Found himself a little leftover snack! Bouncing around increases the appetite.

magpie said...

Oh brother.....took me four tries to get into live feed...might have been a good thing not to watch this Suspense Show !

HI Everyone.

Yes, Ceil..good news about Loch Garten. Chrissy said Odin brought several fish and a wiggling squiggling black eel to the nest that EJ was not very excited about !

magpie said...

I have 24 minutes to go through this while I think of an excuse to call in !

Best wishes for a great TGIF evening for everyone. What's a Friday?

magpie said...

Have Fun on the "0" Birthday Brunch Lolly - can't wait to hear all about it Saturday afterwards !

ceil said...

That is funny Margy. I had trouble also getting in to NCTC. Had to go through em

magpie said...

I am happy to see that Lori the Birthday Girl is able to see a lot of this suspense on her Special Day

And how is Mary Margy doing today, Ceil ?

magpie said...

Whoa, that IS breezy at NCTC ...Maybe we will see the Moon in the East/Southeast and some stars tonight ?

magpie said...

My Megan Flowers are LOVING all this sun today ! I think the flowers are going to be as big as baseballs ! (Marigolds)

ceil said...

She is doing fine. We just went up to take her car to get gas and we had a storm. She has nice friends in her building. They had a welcome home sign. When we got back your card to her was here. Will give it to her tomorrow. Thank you for the card. I always celebrate my birthday for at least a month. With everyones schedule don't see some people for a while. Margy you are the greatest. Have a good night at work. Hope it is slow.

magpie said...

Thanks Ceil. "It's the (Eaglet Momster) Company I keep."

Good report on Mary Margaret, very good. So happy - good neighbors, can't live without 'em.

Funny - the package beat the card to your roost ! ☺

xoxo

magpie said...

Oh, and thanks for the RED ALERT Ceil....anytime you see that I have missed that, please - jump in ! ☺ ♥

magpie said...

I think Hidey is waiting til more people get back to their computers before he shakes things up again !How thoughtful of him!

I loved the food and parenting reports from earlier....

GLO: So excited about your upcoming visit and your two-week vacation! Hope it lasts forever ! ♥

magpie said...

Wanda - will be waiting to hear how the Captain's fishing trip is going! Bet those fellows are having a blast.....

ceil said...

Sorry my computer just stopped. Never had that happen with the old one.
Have to go fix din din. BBL

Lolly said...

Hi Margy! I pick up a few things then I sit down and watch Hidey. I would much rather be sitting than picking!

Lolly said...

Can not believe it is 92 and I still have the house open. Low humidity, tree shade and good insulation help! However, when Jack vacuums, bet we turn the AC on.

Mema Jo said...

OKLAHOMA cams are both up. Nest cam & Wide cam. Their eaglet is growing just like our Hidey!

Looks like Hidey is eating on the edge.
Like s/he could just do a dive bomb downward. Can't see too well because of the smudge.

Mema Jo said...

MAINE cam has the whole family in the nest! I finally get to see those eaglets

magpie said...

Oh Boy, Hidey is getting that contemplative look about him! "Should I or Shouldn't I? "

magpie said...

I won't be able to get to the computer fast enough in the morning when I get off work
at 6 am....!

Mema Jo said...

We'll do our best to keep him occupied in the nest - no promises! The eaglets really do leave morning hours for their first flight from what my memory tells me! With Paula going down to mother's house for the weekend with no PC and Lynne2 going camping - well, I hope s/he will stay around until mid next week.

magpie said...

Okay "Mom" - - sounds like a good plan ! xoxo

magpie said...

Can hear the Sycamore leaves rustling against the cam...

Got my red blouse on...So Long Everyone !

Peace, Love, and Prayers...
xo ☺ ♥

Mema Jo said...

Hidey is still resting in the egg well.
Going to have some dinner here!

BBL

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, you guys! Checking back in to let you know that I got an unemployment check in today's mail! They've renewed it!!!! Thank God!!!!! Now I've gotta get really busy and find 3 jobs to apply to, so they don't cancel it. Gotta mail form back tomorrow. (Whoa, Hidey!!! Hope you've got rocks in your pockets! That's a fierce wind a-blowin'!) Thanks for the continued prayers, you guys-- as you can see, they're working! And thanks, too, for the excellent advice. I AM going to do some research with the SSA to see what my options are at this point. It pays to look before you jump in with both feet.

Lori (the Birthday Girl), I'll probably be talking to you later tonight when you check back in. Hope you're having a great day!

By the way, Hubby is in a better mood now that I got another check!
;O] Take care... BBIALW

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hidey is loving that wind but I am not!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Yeah, Andrea, that is so great. I have to tell you that every time I type your name I have to correct it from Andrew. Fingers just go right to that "w" instead of "a".

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

What a hovercraft we have!

ceil said...

I'm with you Sharon. Know he has to practice but it is like watching a baby take their first step. Raining hard here in Baltimore.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

She finally laid down, thank God!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Too bad eagles don't multiply like sparrows. There would be plenty for all of us to watch from our windows. But then, we probably wouldn't appreciate them as much.

wvgal_dana said...

I haven't read todays comments. It has been a long day 9-4:30 we are home. Thank you all for praying for Ed for the CT Scan---no blood clots Thank YOU FOR THE PRAYERS. We will know more about the CT Scan at his breathing test and appointment June 10th. THANK YOU ALL MY WONDERFUL PRAYER BUDDIES. ( :

hedgie said...

Hi gang....haven't caught up on blog yet, but wanted to let you know that we are under a severe storm warning....so let's hope that if it hits the nest that Hidey has those talons dug in tight!

Ms Bookworm said...

Guess what, everybody! There's a major battle going on in our backyard, between 2 Rufous Hummers and my male Anna's Hummer! The Rufous hummers are really feisty, and it's a circus out there. Took a picture of a Rufous, and will download and see if it turned out.

Ms Bookworm said...

No problem, Sharon! I answer to anything, as long as you call me in time for dinner! (By the way, my Dad's middle name was Andrew, so they kinda named me after him.)

Hey, Lori, you're back! Over your sugar coma yet? Sure hope so ;o]

Boy, Hidey-- better really hang on tight till this one's over!

wvgal_dana said...

Happy Birthday Lori it's not over yet...12:01pm ( :



On Beakspeak we are 4th :( Yesterday .... what happened to 1st

Last 7 Days we are 1st

keep going through Beakspeak to get to NCTC/Hidey webcam

hedgie said...

Okay, I'm caught up! Sounds like Hidey was quite the entertainer this afternoon!
Did we ever find out who Sharon was welcomg?? Merrymaid or something??? Never saw a post like that!
Saw the strangest thing a little while ago...a squirrel nipped off a mushroom/toadstool and was holding it by the stem and nibbling on the cap...sure hope it wasn't poisonous!

hedgie said...

Just realized a little while ago that this is---or would have been my 38th anniversary....guess I'll call it an Unanniversary!!! LOL!
Heading for sofa for Jeopardy and dog/lap time! TTFN.

wvgal_dana said...

Hee hee Lynn we are close again. Coming up on 41st Unanniversary from 1st hubby. So GLAD I have my hubby I have now. Coming up in Sept. on 20th Anniversary together 21. So Lynn Happy UnAnniversary to you !

paula eagleholic said...

Evening, all!

paula eagleholic said...

So Hidey has really been loving that wind, eh?

More flapping into the breeze..think a wing just hit the cam.

paula eagleholic said...

I used to dip my fries in my McDonald's chocolate milkshake when I was a kid...don't knock it till you've tried it! Yummy!

Mits said...

radar showing storms headed our way, love thunderstorms at the ocean

wvgal_dana said...

Mits did you get your hair done?

Hi Paula

hedgie said...

Hey, Mits, a foreign service officer from Bethesda was on Jeopardy....didn't win. But he did tell a story about Boris Yeltsin being drunk at a ceremony in Germany one time!

paula eagleholic said...

Glad to hear Odin is OK!

Good news on Ed, Dana

paula eagleholic said...

Sounds like Hidey is calling for dinner...

gotta go walk the dogs in a few minutes...will catch up on the rest when I get back...

wvgal_dana said...

Yes thanks for prayers Paula...I wouldn't have been Happy if I couldn't have brought him home.

deb said...

Hi everyone, I am caught up on blog, off the phone finally. It seems that is what I spend most of my time doing lately in the evenings, talk to people in CA.

Kestrel chicks are playing tug of war with a mouse, parent put an end to that and flew out of the nest box with it. Maybe she is trying to get one to follow her!

hedgie said...

Thanks, Dana! LOL!! The last 16 1/2 yrs. have been better than the 22 1/2 before were!
Glad Ed has that CT behind him, and that there are no clots!

wvgal_dana said...

That's a good way to look at those years Lynn.

Humm maybe I forgot and got the wrong day for Mits hairdo.

deb said...

Dana, good news on no blood clots for Ed, such a relief for you both.

Mits said...

yes Dana, I did, and they did a good job.....missed Jeopardy tonight , Lynn, bet old Boris could knock down a few....

wvgal_dana said...

So glad they did a nice job for you Mits so you could stay at OC longer.

Yes thank you Deb for prayers. Don't know if (until June 10th) CT showed anything else. I was just concerned for right now about clots. So this MOMSTER GROUP PRAYERS have worked AGAIN ( :

wvgal_dana said...

Deb any plans for the weekend; you know we adventure through you ( :

wvgal_dana said...

Drinking "White Peach Tea by Crystal Light No Caffeine in it". Taste very good.

Mits said...

just went out and put furniture down, don't have time to bungee...sky is black....like when it goes past and sits over the ocean

Mits said...

sounds good Dana

Mits said...

off to watch storm...bbl:)

ceil said...

We have a beautiful rainbow here. They showed it on the Oriole game and I looked out and there it was. Love rainbows.

deb said...

My adventure for the weekend includes painting the trim on my house, gross! I am not a big fan of painting, but it is time. :(

ceil said...

Dana good news about Ed hope the other test come out okay. I am going to ask for prayers for my friends sister. She had an eating disorder when she was younger but is now suffering from depression. She has been in Shepperd Pratt for over two weeks I told my friend that I would get the eagle people to pray for her. They do miracles.Kelly has three young children. Thanks.

ceil said...

Deb I would help but I am a terrible painter. Get more on me that what I am painting.

hedgie said...

Awwww story below---friend whose son lives in Alaska sent it...if anyone has Pook's email address, please send to her!

Baby Moose Rescue

wvgal_dana said...

Prayers for Kelly and family.

hedgie said...

Most definitely prayers for your friends' sister, Ceil! ShepperdPratt is supposed to be very good place....my Bill's gs was there when he had an autism meltdown a year or so ago.

ceil said...

Thanks Dana. Lynn nice story. Hope the little one does well.

ceil said...

It is suppose to be good Lynn. Mental illness is so sad. It is a hard road.

ceil said...

Hidey is resting. I thought Lib or Belle would be bringing a late snack in.

wvgal_dana said...

Lynn that is a great ending for a calf moose ( :

wvgal_dana said...

Hidey is turning white lol

ceil said...

Dana I was thinking the same thing. Hidey looks like he has a white head in the light.

deb said...

Definitely sending prayers for your friend's sister, Ceil.

deb said...

I am glad the right people got a hold of that moose, I can't imagine being told to shoot it!

ceil said...

Deb, thanks. Told Kim that this blog does miracles. She said they need one.

hedgie said...

Me, either, Deb! Thank goodness that guy didn't listen to the cop!
BTW, Margy when you start reading in the am....Peanut&Darlene celebrated their 40th anniv. today...he sent her balloons and roses at the bank!

wvgal_dana said...

Ceil maybe Hidey went with Mits and Hidey had "highlights" put in feathers tee hee

hedgie said...

The latest round of storms missed us here...temp has dropped...feels like humidity is gone.

ceil said...

Dana you might be right.Mits did you take Hidey to the beauty shop with you. They did do a good job on him.

Mits said...

lol...Dana, that means Hidey really is a girl....prayers Ceil...storm sorta petered out once it hit the ocean, usually does, when air temp and water temp are not to far apart the bigger ones come in the summer when they travel over the hot land and hit the cool water, still pretty lightning though

wvgal_dana said...

Wind has calmed down at nest...might have just dodged the bullet...hummmm bullet makes me think of Wanda.

Mits said...

was going to start working in bedroom drawers and closet tonight, but am tired...so going to shut down for tonight...good night everyone...prayers for all who are in need...

wvgal_dana said...

Night Mits hope tomorrow you will have more energy. AOYP=Angels On Your Pillow.

ceil said...

Night Mits. Think I will follow you. Pleasant dreams all. I have pleasant dreams every night knowing you are my friends.

paula eagleholic said...

Spidey, spidey

paula eagleholic said...

Well, I think the eaglet sitting right under the infrared light should dispel any rumors about the infrared light bothering the eagles :)

paula eagleholic said...

Have a good rest, Mits. I love storms over the water...the lightening is so cool.

Temp has dropped here too, 5° in one hour, humidity gone too. Great night for a walk.

paula eagleholic said...

Oh, and guys can get their hair highlighted too!

paula eagleholic said...

Deb, I hear ya on the phone calls...

hedgie said...

Wrapping grandgirls BD gifts....where does the time go? Jess will be 15 Weds. and Jenn 11 Sun. They seem to have grown up faster than their mother did! Of course, they've had a much rougher life, so I guess it's part of the adaptation process.

paula eagleholic said...

But the phone calls aren't always a bad thing....

paula eagleholic said...

Lynn- seems they all grow up much faster nowadays...

paula eagleholic said...

Lots of preening tonight.

wvgal_dana said...

Going to go get my feet up for first time today.

Night
Prayers for ALL that need them

hedgie said...

Hidey is in the well....good baby!

hedgie said...

Bedtime prayers for Mits, Ceil and Dana!

Ms Bookworm said...

Have checked back in to see that Hidey has quite an 'aura' this evening! How pretty is that?! Prayers being lifted up for those in need; God definitely does do miracles, so let's remind Him of that! (We, as believers, are told to remind Him of His promises!) Prayers of thanksgiving and praise for all our many blessings, and for the good news we've heard today, too!
(One HUGE blessing right now is that the wind at the nest seems not so strong. Thank the Lord for watching out for our Hidey!)

BTW--Paula, I used to dip my fries in my chocolate shake too-- in my late teens! Wish I had the metabolism I had then! I was SO skinny! Well, gotta go for now; it's dinnertime. BBIALW. :o]

Ms Bookworm said...

Lynn, my GD Courtney just turned 11 on Sunday too! What a small world!

Ms Bookworm said...

Well, really gotta go now. Prayers for a good night's rest for all! Will BBL after dinner...

floralgirl said...

Well, this dipping fries in shakes thing ... never heard of it- but what do I know, I'm eating a bowl of raisin bran for dinner at 9:45 pm...

Mema Jo said...

Hidey has the twitches!
I guess that some flies bugs are there in the nest with the nestovers.

deb said...

You are right, Paula, most of the calls are good things.

Costume Lady said...

And, Megan, I'll bet you have eaten Pizza for breakfast;)

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, I go to the store for a few minutes and the blog blows up. You all are quite talkative tonight! :)

paula eagleholic said...

If you haven't checked the TH nest lately...the sound is great...crunch crunch.

Mema Jo said...

Good talk - small talk !

Da Bird is still in Da Nest!

deb said...

The sound is really good at TH, Paula.


I am watching the LW pair and waiting for a look of the Oregon eaglet.

deb said...

Both adults are in OR, the little one is still little!

Mema Jo said...

The BWE nest image is very weird looking. Looks like Easter grass.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I love all the talk on here, no matter how big or small! :)

deb said...

I am going to read for awhile and then get some sleep, have to hit the paint bright and early!

Mema Jo said...

Headed down the hall to bedroom very soon!

Good Night All
Peace to you and yours
Prayers for everyone's needs being said

((hugs)) ♥

Lolly said...

Well, my house is in order as well as spic and span. Ready for the brunch tomorrow. After that...I will have the whole weekend with a clean house. Wahoo....outside I will go,

As I type this my cat, Annie, is sitting on my right arm. She is demanding that I pet her.

Costume Lady said...

I forgot to tell you all...I spoke with Gene today and he confessed that he forgot to shut the door to the shop after airing it out. But, he knows nothing about "Harley".

Lolly said...

Hope Lori had a good day. It was also the birthday of a good friend of mine. She is an elementary librarian...so I emailed her her birthday song.

Lolly said...

Interesting Wanda. Magpie denies it......what about Lynn?

Lolly said...

Has to be someone in the area! Have we heard from Robyn recently?

hedgie said...

Andrea...Sissy and Sharon's niece Mattie just turned 11, too!

hedgie said...

Wasn't me!!! And, no, we haven't heard from Robyn in ages!! I'm concerned that the door was open for that long without Wanda noticing!!!

hedgie said...

Will say goodnight to all...getting very sleepy!! Rest well, dear fowl friends. Prayers going up for every one.

Costume Lady said...

Too sleepy to comment...

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL.

Lolly said...

Good night all!

I am tired and sleeping. Think it is time to call an end to the day.

Sweet dreams!

Bird Girl said...

Great shot, a wonderful closeup!

movin said...

Well, I hope there's nothing seriously wrong with Hidey.
He's sleeping perched on the edge at 10:30 with his head tucked, but his head twitches fairly regularly, and then once in a while his right foot twitches too.

Oh, oh ... he's waken up some, foot still carrying on until he grasped the sticks with it. Big yawns, and then he starts preening.

He could have insect problems, as somebody suggested, because he used his right foot for a long scratch session under his chin.

Geez, I don't know... he tucked his head under again and immediately started twitching again....


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

paula eagleholic said...

Wow, Hidey is sleeping like a big boy...head tucked back...still as can be.

Night, all

Hugs to all ♥

Have a Great Weekend!

Catch ya'll on Sunday!

movin said...

Looked back in as Hidey was waking again. He preened some more, stretched his wings muscles, and then he decided to lay down in the egg bowl area and tuck his head ... more twitches.


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

movin said...

** Good NighT **

** EveryOne **


"Sleep tight,
don't let the bed bugs bite...."

Lynne2 said...

Good morning! Checking before leaving for camping...can't see Hidey AT ALL. Pretty sure my pic is streaming but refreshed several times just the same for past 10 minutes. I see no sign of him/her. Could be under camera being an excellent Hidey, but maybe this is it..... if so Hidey, go with God and good luck!!!

magpie said...

I'm home, I'm here, and I don't see the little tyke either...
still looking....

magpie said...

Unless he is under that smudge somewhere....

Listening now....

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Margy. Welcome to Eagleland.

I have been watching and can't find him yet either. Hope he steps out from under the cam and surprises us. Maybe he is branching.

Laynie said...

WHERE IS HIDEY?? Did she leave the nest?

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning Laynie we all are coming into the same picture. Don't know if Hidey fledged. Maybe is just up on a branch.

magpie said...

No sight No Sound since I signed on. Let's see what we see or don't see here for awhile.

Good Morning Eagle Pals, Dana, Laynie, and all those about to jump on soon no doubt

God Speed, Hidey

Laynie said...

Ohhhh Hidey!!

Well, if you have left your nest, this was afterall the day we hoped for when you were just a little tiny eaglet. Good luck out there and may you soon be as majestic as your mom and dad. We will miss you little one.

Stevie from Kentucky said...

Good morning!
I've been watching since 6:50am. No sign of Heidy!

wvgal_dana said...

Keep watching lower right hand corner. Watch for Hidey's beak. Might show up there from what the Maine Discussion forum is showing. From one of the pics from yesterday.
Wouldn't surprise me is the well named "Hidey" is down there under the cam.

Stevie from Kentucky said...

I mean 5:50am! (Haven't fishished my coffee!)LOL.

magpie said...

So, some time since Jim saw Hidey at 1:58 and when Lynne2 hopped on at 5:55, our little pal snuck out on us ??

Yes, he could be hiding near that smudge somewhere.....what else does Maine say, Dana...?

Hi Stevie....☺

wvgal_dana said...

Nothing about fledging Lynn. I'll put up a tiny blue link so you all can see the picture I'm talking about.




2ND PICTURE FROM TOP HIDEY SNEAKS
IN AT BOTTOM RIGHT

wvgal_dana said...

They have said you there he had been hovering above the nest. So we will just have to wait and see. Would be nice if someone visited and said they see Hidey on a branch.

magpie said...

I can't get a screen grab of the nest right now for anything !

wvgal_dana said...

This is one time I certainly miss that lady that use to jump in jeep/or vehicle. Rush to nest to give us a report over phone.

wvgal_dana said...

11 weeks old and being the only one in the nest. Our Hidey could have fledged. Only wws=wait watch and see.

magpie said...

Dana
Paula observed the first hovering two days ago, and then it increased often after that.
Jim saw the Eaglet at 1:58 this morning...last posted sighting that I know of so far....

wvgal_dana said...

Wish the guard would report if he see's Hidey on a branch. Would be nice.

wvgal_dana said...

I hear the geese

Laynie said...

My thoughts that Hidey is not there is that he is usually so vocal in the morning, and I have not heard him at all.

magpie said...

Now we can imagine we see Eagle Shadows in the nest...maybe ?

magpie said...

Good point, Laynie....

If Hidey is branching he may not make as much noise as usual. Since he would be up there with Mom or Dad. Branching is not a fledge. Although 11 weeks and no siblings to battle with he could have fledged.

Laynie said...

None of the bloggers on this site live near Hidey's nest to check it out?

wvgal_dana said...

That is the second time I have hear something touch the cam. Alittle knock like.

magpie said...

I live close enough to go...but working nights have to get sleep !
I did get a screen grab of the "empty nest" and added it to the other nest pictures for May in the Momsters Album...

"More to Be Revealed" as we say, maybe a new thread from Steve will have something.

wvgal_dana said...

I think Hidey is there but hidden. I just heard his voice and again the cam being hit.

magpie said...

It's awesome to think, though, that our Eagle Family are cruising the beautiful grounds of NCTC and visiting the Potomac....

I'm going to leave the blog space for you folks...I hear that little cam mike knock too...

Headed for the pillows, get up in time to see what the rest of the news is.

You folks take care, and I hope the day is a Very Good One for all...
xoxo ☺ ♥

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
If I thought the guards would let me in, I would go to the nest site and see what's going on. I'm having my coffee right now...just got up. Will think about it for a minute.

magpie said...

Thanks, Laynie, and I forgot to add, Prayers for new needs and old ones too.
Dana, glad you got some encouraging news about Ed, hope the upcoming tests and things will be positive.
Ceil - prayers for your friend's sister....couple of big low-esteem ailments there she has to battle...

And for all the many people we are praying for, taking those handfuls of prayers to bed with me...

WANDA - I BET THEY WOULD LET YOU IN !! KEEP THINKING ABOUT IT...God Bless Us, Every One...xo

Laynie said...

Costume Lady (sorry... I do not know anyone's names unless it is part of their sign-on name).....

If the guards do not let you in, can you see the nest with binoculars somewhere close?

glo said...

Good morning everyone. Guess I need to look for Hidey LOL always looking for Hidey from the very start and now til the very end. Wanda go see LOL

Laynie said...

Excuse my "Eagle" ignorance (this is all fairly new to me)... but where do Eagles go to rest? I mean, why don't they use the nest after fledging?... even the parents?

paula eagleholic said...

Wanda - GO GO GO

They will let you in...

glo said...

If Hidy has fledged she will return to the nest to rest and Lib and Belle will bring food there too. Lib and Belle spend a lot of time on a branch up above the nest.

Costume Lady said...

That is a GOOD POINT Laynie...I will try that...I think that might work!
