I don't know what that clanking noise is on our cam but I heard it during the night last night. Might be a limb blowing against the cam or something.

paula eagleholic said...

Hidey talking to parent!

paula eagleholic said...

Sharon, it's from a parent near the cam

Mema Jo said...

Well I can see the little Happy Feet over at 2:00 and also see that Spidey
is starting to spin the web!

BBL

hedgie said...

Don't believe that free-style has to mean jive/hip hop, etc. Would sure love to see Cheryl and Gilles come out and do just a free-styling array of true ballroom dances!

paula eagleholic said...

I would like to see that too, but none of them do it.

paula eagleholic said...

Hard to see Hidey at 2ish.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Okay, heart just fell, but I saw her beak moving at 2 o'clock!

wvgal_dana said...

Paula are you watching "Dancing with the Stars"?

paula eagleholic said...

I vote for Gilles and Cheryl! Very nice!

wvgal_dana said...

For those that didn't get to see Dancing With The Stars DANCING PETE & BEULAH MAE

hedgie said...

Well, I'll settle for a Flashdance rendition, since it is a fav movie and music!

Mema Jo said...

Hidey is still scratching his/her head and thinking about it all!
At the 2:00 position... Just may stay there for the night!

Mema Jo said...

And MEI also is just lying there and
thinking about it all! lol

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, I am glad to see that turd moving away from the edge of the nest. Love it when their eyes glow!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Well, that was short lived, went to the launch pad for a while.

paula eagleholic said...

Back in the bowl!

I voted for Gilles 3x, then it said I reached my limit from this number, and I could vote at abc.com. Interesting! Never voted before.

Mits said...

yep Mei is sleeping, never did hear from my zoo people, guess they were inundated with emails

hedgie said...

Funny, Dana!

hedgie said...

Paula, allowed five calls...I got through one time, had two busy signals and then they said I had reached my limit...hmmmm....not fair!

magpie said...

Pretty view at Finland Water...bird just left for a very short time and back on now

magpie said...

Gaze of Raccoons at Pix Pa....

Got to see what all I have missed out on...200 comments or so worth...

magpie said...

Looks like Finney's Land bird is eating something....

NatureNut said...

Evening Everyone! Been slaving away here at home--more stuff to do.
Only read some of first page, so far.
GLO, saw you're wonderful pic---tried to post Comment 3 times! Nothing is showing up yet. It was, "EEK! Is that a mouse?" Thx for sharing ☺
Will try to read some more--clothes awaiting in the dryer, pants to be hemmed, hair shampooed & get up early in AM for work!Maybe I can get on here TU if relatively calm at work! BBL

paula eagleholic said...

I got plenty of busy tones. Some took awhile to ring busy, tho.

paula eagleholic said...

They should have more than one number dial for voting. If I had known you could vote online, would have tried that first.

wvgal_dana said...

Night Everyone

Prayers for those that need them

magpie said...

NatureNut: I think all comments on FTLOE get approved first....might show up soon....

You sound so busy! When is blast-off date?

Costume Lady said...

I didn't know that you could vote on-line either, Paula. I would have voted for Gilles and Cheryl, had I known:(

paula eagleholic said...

Hey Lowreeda!

hedgie said...

Okay, voted online!

NatureNut said...

Just heard screeching tires from nest cam!
Slow Down!!Eaglet Sleeping Zone!

Costume Lady said...

I tried to vote and it told me voting time was over.

NatureNut said...

Hey, Paula & Everyone! Went to another Ledos yesterday afternoon--another lady there also frequents our one that went Boom.Employees said they heard it will reopen in 6mos.(I think sooner) Instead of rebuilding, they are going to open in another existing store! Lowreeda orders again! ☺

magpie said...

Okay, sitting here LOL'ing! Got the meaning now, after reading all the comments, especially about Helen's daughter-in-law thinking you know what was an arm!

Great news, Great name, have two newphews named Ben, and a late uncle.....Congratulations and Best wishes to all the family

Another helicopter !

magpie said...

NO reaction...see if it flies over here next on the way to City Hospital..

Finney Osprey deep in the nest...

Hello Everyone! Hey, Sara ! been wondering where you have been !

NatureNut said...

Oh Margie! If all 3 comments to Glo's pic show up---it will be embarrassing! Hope they can be canned.
Unfortunately, I have to blast off on Sat! 2 years in a row missing baby birds in WV!!!!Thinking I might see a bird in Greece, I finally ordered a replacement telephoto lens for the one that got stolen. I also needed the adapter ring to screw it onto the camera. Got lens----ring backordered! It is what it is!
Gotta get back down to that dryer--oh, my aching knees! ☺

deb said...

My sister just ruined my Survivor surprise. Just as I finished saying I am to the last challenge she told me who won. I am not a happy camper and after Wanda did such a good job of keeping it a secret for me! Oh, well, I will have to see how it plays out anyway. :(

magpie said...

Loretta: We are sure going to miss you....but will really look forward to seeing your pictures when you get back!


Oh Deb ! - - That's just not fair!
- - - -
No helicopter here, guess it was headed somewhere else

If the skies are clear before sunrise, should be a beautiful waning crescent moon about halfway between bright Jupiter and even brighter Venus, in the Eastern Sky !

magpie said...

Hidey seems just slam wore out!
Same as us, watching her very active flapping and jumping today!

Got computer neck, time for PJ's - back in a little while

paula eagleholic said...

I love Ledo's.

Have a great time on your trip Loretta.

Costume Lady said...

Sorry your sis spilled the beans, Deb, but it is still worth watching even if you know the winner:)

Lowreeda, can you get a shot in your knees before you leave on your trip...might help.

paula eagleholic said...

Sorry, Deb!

paula eagleholic said...

About the online voting - I would have said something sooner...didn't event check it out. I assumed it ended at 9:30 like the voting.

paula eagleholic said...

Got one good clip from tonight...my favorite!

I can fly...well a little bit! Gonna hit the hay...woke up waaay too early this morning!

Costume Lady said...

I was able to vote AFTER I registered. All 5 votes were accepted for Gilles and Cheryl.

Mits said...

bummer, Deb....:(

paula eagleholic said...

Hugs to all ♥

Costume Lady said...

Paula's video is so cute...Hidey is trying so hard to learn to fly:)

Costume Lady said...

Nite, Paula.

Mits said...

doing some packing myself, headed to OC tomorrow for a week, jubby and son and family will be there on Friday sometime til Monday...I will come back next Tuesday and be up here for a few weeks, then back down the beach the middle of next month for a few weeks.....

Mits said...

that is a cute video, Paula, good night everyone...:)

Costume Lady said...

Enjoy yourself at the beach, Helen, but don't try to go surfing just yet;)

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL

magpie said...

Bird off nest at Finney land...
if you want to try to see the eggs

magpie said...

You had to be quick on that one !

Lolly said...

Having computer problems. I finally get on and everyone is going to bed, Looks like it is a router/modem problem. Hopefully we will get it taken care of tomorrow. However we are going to Denton tomorrow for another ball game. So don't know......

hedgie said...

Too bad, Lolly. Good luck!
We sure will miss you, Lowreeda!! How long is your trip??? I trust that your passport came in time, right??
Mits, don't forget to take your computer!!! And don't overdo!!
We will sure miss all you MD gals on Sat.!

magpie said...

Oh, dear, lost the chance to say Good Night to some of our Momsters....

Good night Hedgie, Good Night Lolly, and maybe, a few other night owls still up. I won't be long putting head onto pillow myself

Peace, Love and Prayers

hedgie said...

Calling it a night...been a long day and no nap! sweet dreams for all. Peace and love and prayers.

magpie said...

By the way, Lynn....Nice Pictures!

hedgie said...

Hey, Margy my pal....our minds were on the exact same thoughts!!! Love ya'!

hedgie said...

Well....the bunny was a good one anyway! TY!

deb said...

I finished Survivor, even though I knew who won, it was still good and i would have guessed the outcome anyway

NatureNut said...

Gotta shut down 'puter (psych).
Hope all is well w/GA GIRL's GGchild, Dana's Ed, & Helen's ribs--thoughts & prayers to all.
Wanda, I'll probably never get shots in my knees, unless I really end up going to Dr. about them --never even had them xrayed. They started cracking when I knelt down in church when I was about 12. Very embarrassing, but never hurt then.Did gymnastics at UMD--didn't hurt then either!Guess we pay for our thrills!
Pleasant Feather Dreams to all hitting the hay ☺

Lolly said...

G'nite all!

Sweet dreams!

deb said...

Night everyone. I put up some pictures from Friday of last week, I will work on more later.

Bird Girl said...

Popping in again to say hi!

vick37 said...

Hello All, new to the cam tonite. Thrilled to see baby eagle...and spidey spinning a web...

magpie said...

* Wow *

that is quite a Spider Web this morning, guess Vick37 saw it blooming.

Hope some of you can catch a gander of the Moon between Jupiter (on the right) and Venus to the left - Eastern Sky. Nice!

magpie said...

I can hear the cardinals at the nest site...♫ ♪ ♪ ♫

magpie said...

Somewhere behind all that gauzy web is Hidey making the morning appearance...and away goes the spider

magpie said...

Bird Girl - Wish I had been a night owl earlier this morning, missed your visit again! Sometimes you will catch us on here at that hour!

Tell us about things at your Roost when you pop back on...☺

magpie said...

Can just barely see that Spider web now ☺

magpie said...

hear the blue birds now ♪♫

magpie said...

Oh dear, I am watching Loch of the Lowe's - one of the chicks seems to have died in the nest, and the other one is begging for a feeding right now... no food in sight, parent up on the branch.....third egg yet unhatched

magpie said...

Speed boats are whizzing past the nest at Finland....the bird has vacated the nest twice in the last few minutes....

magpie said...

HIdey is flapping and hopping

Lori O. said...

Look! The eaglet had jumped up on the camera - a real bird's eye view!

magpie said...

Wake Up ! You all have got to see how close Hidey is to the cam !

Lori O. said...

Hopefully Hidey will clean that spider web off the lens.

magpie said...

Lori! this is awesome stuff !

magpie said...

HIdey is chewing the bark and chirping like a pro !

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Wow, what a view!! Hidey up close and personal this morning!!

Good morning eagle buds!

magpie said...

Never ever saw anything like this! Not with the other birds, not me anyway! I wish I could holler louder for the others !!

vick37 said...

It's almost as if he knows we are watching him! This is so cool...

magpie said...

Oh Sissy ! Good, another witness, isn't this amazing ???

magpie said...

Seemed like Hidey was beaking the cam ! And you could see feathers in the beak too ! Really cool

magpie said...

Hey there Vick 37 - Spidey contined to spin an amazing web after you saw it getting started.....


Where are you watching from ?
And you too Lori, how about you?
Forgive my manners if I should already know this.

Lori O. said...

I'm so glad you all are watching too...no one would believe me!
Isn't Hidey the cutest, smartest, most amazing eaglet? I love this baby.

Lori O. said...

I'm in Rockville at work this morning. Live in Frederick.

magpie said...

Yah, this is the beginning of a new stage for Hidey, Lori. So glad you were able to see it....
I'm going to put some pics on the Momsters album for this month...
back in a few

magpie said...

Ooops too late, Hidey is back to his old haunts...going to try to send a pic over on the Eaglet page, got to see which one is the best ! xo

magpie said...

By the way, Lori, your avatar is terrific ! ☺

floralgirl said...

Morning all:) Cold start here, 33° when I first got up. Patchy frost on spots in the yard.
Been watching hidey moving all over the nest. Really working those wings out this morning. Loved the up by the cam view.

Aimeecat said...

Hi guys.

I am new to watching the baby eagle, it is so cute. Just started watching yesterday. I noticed mom and dad don't seem to hang around much. Is this normal?

Lori O. said...

Thanks Magpie! He was my first bulldog I rescued. I may have to contact someone and try to get in on the trip to see Hidey this weekend before he flies the nest for good. I will miss that little baby so much.
I'll check out your pics of this mornings Hidey Hops on the other blog.

Lori O. said...

Hi Aimeecat - Hidey is my first eaglet, but I've seen him for hours daily since he was two days old. There are a bunch of eagle experts who have been watching for years that I'm sure could tell you stories. But, Hidey's parents Liberty and Belle, have been with him the expected amounts for each phase of his development...in my very simple opinion. :)

magpie said...

Sounds good Lori. Contact Mema Jo, she can add you to the list !

Aimeecat: The parents are around, mostly out of sight a lot, but close by on nearby branches, but they make pretty freqent visits, just don't always stay too long these days. Others will explain it better, but it is a natural part of the rearing process to let the eaglet come into its own. They bring food, sometimes still feed the baby, rather, baby tries to steal it from their beaks...often they drop it and let Hidey hone his eating and feeding skills. Liberty and Belle are the BEST parents !

magpie said...

Hi Megan !
How is your daughter doing today?
Hope your plants survived okay....
good to see that you were able to see Hidey Up close and Personal.

I am going over to add my pics to the Momsters album now, can't promise they are going to be in exact time order, but oh well, what else is new.

Best wishes for a Great Day everyone....prayers for wellness for John-John, Madeline, Mary Margaret, Dand's Ed, and all others in need...♥

magpie said...

sorry, make that DANA's Ed, not Dand's....

GA-GIRL said...

OMG be still my heart. couldnt find Hidey. one min s/hes there the next gone.. finally found him.. standing there looks like part of the tree... GOOD MORNING YA'LL sunny skys in GA but very chilly this morning. Hope all is well. waiting for news on John-John this morning. still in hospital. had trouble breathing yesterday afternoon

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Me and my computer are about to have a parting of the ways!! I can't get it to cooperate at all this morning!! Could it be operator error? I THINK NOT!! :))

vick37 said...

Back on again for a few Magpie...Had to get the youngins off to school. I am from Mason.....I did watch that spider spin the entire web, had a case of "up all nights". I am terrified of spiders so wouldn't you know the first time on a live cam and what do I see? lol....But can watch at this distance and was amazed...nature in WV at it's best! I love this little eaglet and am so glad was here to see him up close this am. I swear he knew we were watchin!

Aimeecat said...

Thanks Lori and magpie for the info. I'm at work and going to try to keep an eye on things. :-)

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
GA Girl, our prayers continue to be with your precious GGChlild. We are glad you allowed us to be with you in your time of stress and I'm certain we will be sharing the joy of a WELL child very soon.

Lori, we would love to have you join us at the Nest visit. Mema Jo is also from Frederick.

GA-GIRL said...

we are taking a trip this weekend up to the Carolinas.. I really wish we had time to drive over to the nest and visit with all.. I would love to see Hidey and ALL

magpie said...

Aimeecat: Love that avatar!
Vick 37 - would that be Mason WV? Yes- that spider thing can be a little, unnerving, but what a beautiful work of art.

Lori and I like to leave the Eaglet info for the REAL pros, but glad the info helped some...

Hi Wanda and Ga Girl

I'm turning the baton over to you....I intended to do something besides park my bottom here for the last two hours, but I could not resist, too much wonder...


Sissy - it's the computer not the operator !!!
TTFN xo

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

That bird wants out of that nest bad!! I don't think it is going to be much longer before she fledges!

Costume Lady said...

Good Morning, Norma. Hidey has really been a CLOWN this morning. I love to wake up to see so much action!

magpie said...

HOW DO YOU ALL FEEL ABOUT A NEW THREAD ??? WELL GO CHECK IT OUT !

Costume Lady said...

Yep, you'r right, Sissy. Hidey will not be in that nest much longer, That is why we are having a nest visit in May instead of June.

vick37 said...

Magpie-yes Mason, WV...sorry. I am off work with neck and arm problems...pain is unbearable at times. Would appreciate prayers as I feel like that may be the only hope before surgery.....
I can't believe how close Hidey is to the camera...does he do this often? Also when you spoke of the "Loch of the Lowes" what were you referring to? would like to watch if it is a web cam...
