Thanks, Paula!!! Have to leave for a little while...OHHS prom tonight....going w/sister to watch them take their red carpet walk!! BBL
Well, just going by the name, we all should have bet on that horse!!
Gotta go...BBL.
Lolly - tell me about the sopapilla cheescake!
Sure hope Mits is feeling better...
Thanks for the loon link and the Norfolk Eagle link. I have added them to my favorites. I created a google account but maybe I am still doing something wrong. I'll try and check about the google account and see if the password works there. Thanks again!
And the test did take!
Thanks Paula
This will be our Spring/Summer avatar
Then I'll use the other for Fall/Winter
Whoo Hoo!
Lollie should still have lots of company at her home... today was the get together
Blackwater adult with the Chessie & Choppie at the nest.
Our big gal Hidey is at 4:00 position - that is fairly close to the launch pad site!
LOL, Lib just arrived without food and about got his left foot ripped off!
Hidey was really looking for dinner! Maybe Belle is bringing it.
Hidey is giving LIb He**
He took off!
I'll tell you about the cheesecake, Paula. It is gone! LOL I will give you the recipe later. Laurel and boys still here. Just got on to say we are still here. Have not been blown away, nor have we flooded. Bad weather!
Laurel is celebrating, Her district has closed all schools.
Be back later!
Jo - I haven't seen your email about the nest visit.
The pic looks good!
Lolly - you are cruel!! :)
I might just have to go out and find some cheesecake!
This is a neat video to watch
The Lyre Bird
Couldn't even save me a bite, LOL
Lib is back with a stick!
Actually, I think that was Belle that arrived first...
Today we visited Three Rivers Avian Center located near Hinton, WV. Saw 10 birds they have on site used for educational purposes and shows. I'm going to try to add pictures to my blog if I can remember how to do it.
Lib looks hot
I am so hurting for Mits! I hope the correct pain med is being used - I know how sensitive her stomach is but there
has to be some med to give a lot of relief!
WOOSIE! Who among us would not have picked Mine That Bird as a
Big Time Winner!!!
Paula -The panda nap interfered with the completion of the email lol
I was out measuring flower pots
Will try to get to Market tomorrow to
see Megan!
I have added some of my favorite pictures from our visit to Three Rivers today.
I'm going to have to go back and add the snap turtle -- that was the biggest turtle I have ever seen.
Nascar race on now! BBL
Lolly made me do it - had to run to the store and get some chocolate chip cheesecake - YUMMY!
Nice pics, Sara. Love the golden eagle! Jo, check out her owls.
Back from meeting....out of 40 lot owners, the usual handful attended...only 9!
I looked up the Sopapilla Cheesecake recipe....it is SO easy...I have all the ingredients so think I'll make it tomorrow. Uses Crescent rolls and cream cheese.
Good pics, Sara. Thanks!
The video of the Lyre Bird I posted starts off a little boring. Man does that bird go nuts lol
Oh shoot I was on a forum of Finland. They are saying at the Finland Nest on the Water there are 2 eggs. Anyone hear about that?????
Suz thought she saw one a couple of days ago, but then didn't see it, Dana! I said earlier that it looks like she is roosting...do the osprey spell each other the way the eagles do?
Paula congratulations on your walk. ( : Glad it didn't rain all day...prayers answered.
Now if prayers will just give Mits some relief of pain.
The pictures in the Finland Forum show that the male has been incubating too.
They are saying in that forum and the administer has deleted any pictures of the Land Finland nest.
Says on the site it says due to copywrite pictures can't be posted in Finnish.
Going to watch some tv will check back later.
OMG....
Cowboys special teams coach Joe DeCamillis was among 12 people injured when winds just shy of tornado strength ripped through the roof of the team's indoor practice facility during a rookie minicamp Saturday.
The storm hit while 27 players were going through workouts. There were about 70 people in the facility, counting coaches, other team personnel and media, officials said.
Storms often make loud noises inside the so-called bubble, but this time overhead lights swayed violently. One of the team's video staff was the first out the door, followed by Nick Eatman of DallasCowboys.com. Eatman was hit by something and went down a few feet away, then heard someone screaming for help. He recognized it was Todd Archer of The Dallas Morning News.
Eatman and colleague Josh Ellis tried freeing Archer but the structure wouldn't budge. "It was like a car," Eatman said. Then safety DeAngelo Smith and linebacker Brandon Williams were able to get it up just enough for Archer to squirm out.
Archer said that as he fled for shelter, other players appeared to be stepping through the debris looking for others in need of help.
Eatman said one of the swaying lights wound up more than two football fields away. The giant blue star atop the building lay crumpled on the ground. The storm knocked out power at team headquarters and splintered trees across the property.
Thank goodness no one was killed. Lolly said they had really bad weather in the Lone Star state today....
I had to google it too. Sopapilla cheesecake sounds really yummy.
I can't get any captures of Finland land anyway since the cam went live stream.
Thanks, Dana. It was fun.
Where did find their forum, Dana?
Beautiful pictures Sara! Loved them all!
Just finished a sugar-free ice cream treat! Good & cold and it was p-nut butter flavored!

VERY LARGE & WELL ATTENDED
RACCOON PARTY IN THE PA WOODS
I have for the last 2 evenings seen the
bear at Snowman Cam - not yet tonight
I posted a couple of more pics, and the link to the rest of the pics from today.
Eaglet Momsters Blog
Whoa- that is a party!
Oh My! I see 2 golden Loon eggs in MN
She just left the nest....
Thanks, cool- I didn't know there were two eggs in the loon nest. They are pretty.
Your pics are nice, Paula. Sounds like you had a good time.
Hi Megan - Still trying to make up my mind but the weather would be the factor as to whether or not I come. Could you just load some of the red or purple salvias in case I would come? I will wait a week for the 4:00's.... need the flower bed prepared.
LOON swimming back to her nest.....
Loon is back on nest incubating the eggs.
She sure can't get settled!
Lynn, copy and paste....link is on the bottom right hand
http://www.saaristomeri.info/
Sure thing, Jo:)
Nevermind, Lynn, just has a couple of posts from last year...maybe Dana can send us the link
And never mind, that is the water nest....not sure which one she was talking about
Megan are you doing Charlestown on Saturdays?
What about the new market from last year...are you going to do that one too?
Yep, Charlestown on Saturdays. The one in Dc wasn't profitable for me. Looking at another, not sure yet.
Good to see you, Megan.
Gonna go finish watching Million $ Baby...
Thanks, good to be seen:) House full of teens here, daughter's 15 bday tomorrow, how time flies...
Rest of your pics were good, too, Paula. Isn't that recipe easy?!
Thanks for weather report, Jo (H)Ellen---LOL!
Hey, me again. Okay, what's the link where the bear is at the snowman cam and also where is that raccoon party in the PA woods site? Thanks for helping me out with the links. I really do apprecaite it a lot!
Fascinating video, Dana. Isn't that lyre bird amazing???? Sir David always has marvelous stuff!
Great pics Paula. Parade in town looked fun!
PA woods cam
SnowmanCam
Hi Bibee.... give me a minute.
Also click on Paula's blue link for the Eaglet Momster site to view her pics from today.
Link to Snowman cam & the BEAR IS THERE
Yep, Shepherdstown does love a parade:)
The BEAR is there!
Hi, I am home from a wonderful day spent outside. Need to get cleaned up, but I want to watch the bear!
Well Hello Deb ! I am glad you are up & about and can see your bear!!!
Now I can relax a little
Did you paddle today?
Sometimes I have seen the bear climb the tree to get to the one feeder.
I will return in about 1 hr to say good night.........
BBL
Yes, Jo, I paddled tonight. I have a turtle crossing picture for you!
Don't tell anyone Deb that you have it! Paula said someone took the sign that was down at NCTC & they are looking for it!
Thanks for the bear link and the raccoon link. Saw the bear being lazy, just like me. Had a bear stand up and put his front paws on my window in the truck. Scared me to death, but the bear was so pretty! Used to have a pet raccoon. Loved that baby! Used to walk it on a leash. It was too cute! Will look for that recipe for the cheesecake. I just keep taking notes on things from this site. I am just so thrilled to have found it!
Thanks Paula was wondering what the T-shirt looked like. I like the bird.
My turtle crossing picture is on Deb's Photo's. I am working on the rest yet. I saw so many turtles today, you couldn't count them!
Calling it a day here. Good night all you eagle buddies. Sweet Dreams!
Hot Do0d!! I finally got to see that bear!!!
I love turtles! My turtle tattoo is so cute. I also collect turtles, turtles, and more turtles.
Will look at the pictures.
Paula, Great Family pic at NCTC--see it caused Jo to change her avatar!! LOL
That was supposed to be Dog! Duh
FINLAND FORUM EGGS
PICTURED on comment made May 2, 09 11:17pm green circle around eggs
CLICK ON THE BLUE ABOVE TAKES YOU TO THE FINLAND FORUM
Loretta what was suppose to be a dog?
Deb good to see you on here. Catch you when your on during week at your lunch break too.
Dana, when I saw the bear I tried to say Hot Dog!, but hit the wrong keys!
Just checked--it's still there!
Deb - that was a HERD of Turtles!!!
Loretta said...
Hot Do0d!! I finally got to see that bear!!!
She meant HOT DOG I FINALLY GOT TO SEE THAT BEAR :)
He's still there...
Thanks Dana for the Finland forum link!
We split at 400 not 300.....
The rest of my pictures are up. Jo, did you see the three heads in the water, too?
Paula, I loved your pictures from today. The decorated wheelbarrows were cute! The nest pictures are awesome.
Time for me to get cleaned up.
Thanks I got to see the bear. I seen him before but it has been a long time.
Great selection of pics Deb
After you said something I saw the 3 heads
I loved the pheasant! Such a beautiful bird.
Thanks Dana for that Finney Water Link.
I sent it to Suz and Helen just in case they didn't have it.
I am sitting here half asleep.......
Jo I like your new avatar. I'm glad you are the one that got it.
Hi all! It has been a busy, exciting day. Company this afternoon. Also, the weather has been very turbulent. Rain, wind, hail, tornadoes, you know, typical Texas weather. Sirens went off for us tonight, but all was well. Laurel headed home but called and she had pulled off the freeway and was under a bridge. She just now called and she is home.
It was a "microburst" that took down the Cowboy's practice facility. Twelve were injured, two seriously...both coaches.
Denton ISD has closed for a week. Laurel and the boys are thriled to have a week of no school.
Thanks for that link, Dana....still don't find about the pics being taken down...do you remember when that was posted?
I sent that link to Suz...don't know whether she'll be able access it while working or not, but maybe long enough to see the eggs!
Not to be rude since you just came on Lolly - but I told Dana I am half asleep and not it feels like 3/4 asleep. Sorry about your TX weather but sounds like all is well tonight.
Looks like we'll have rain most of the upcoming week - of course that can change. No word from Helen tonight -
so concerned and will pray for her comfort.
Good Night All
Peace to you & yours
Prayers for everyone's needs being said!
(((hugs))) ♥
News just said that the panda house at NZ has been closed due to possible pregnancy of Mei because she is spending so juch time in den and cradling objects...so guess the 24 hr. watch is starting....check in Mits and let us know if you've been put on alert!
Night Hedgie and all others still on!
Tomorrow is the beginning of another week!
Night all. Glad everyone is safe Lolly.
See ya in the am
Hugs to all ♥
Okay, Dana, I found the posts!!!
Good night to all turning in. Rest well.
There is an April 22 post on the Finland Forum that shows archive photos of cam installation. The following is posted a little further down that page:
there is also a text saying in Finnish (again): "Kameran tuottamaa kuvaa saa vapaasti käyttää medioissa sillä ehdolla, että kuvan lähteenä mainitaan Turun AMK / natureit.net " which is in English something like that 'the pictures produced by the camera may be used freely in media on the condition that the source is quoted: Turun AMK / natureit.net' (Turun AMK is the Polytechnical University of Turku). so here we are not criminals as long as we don't edit the logo in the upper left corner off the pictures
Helen, I sure hope you start feeling better soon! Prayers for some relief for you soon.
I am tired after a day in the sun, so I am off to read in bed and hopefully sleep in a little later tomorrow..
Very interesting about the panda. It would be so great to have another stick of butter. LOL
Just saw on the weather that we have another round of rain etc,. headed our way due to arrived in the middle of the night.
Paula, tomorrow I will email you the recipe for the sopapilla cheesecake. It is so easy and a delicious dessert.
Hedgie/Lynn here is the information times and dates on the Finland Forum. In these comments something is mentioned is reference to pictures taken

Lynn my brain is mush now.
Prayers for Helen to breath and rest more comfortable.
Prayers for those that need them.
Rest our dear friends that lurk/watch without commenting.
Further reading reveals that it is apparently the Finney Land nest that they were referring to about the pics. That camis privately owned, whereas Finney water is, I think, owned by a university.
Saying goodnight to all. Peace and prayers. Mits, please get better quick!
I checked both Finnish O. nests, and the 'Finney' nest ... with small forest in background ... definitely has a (1) new egg!!
The water surrounded nest was open briefly, but I couldn't quite see an egg...don't think there is one yet, but the female is still in the incubation position, so I might have missed the egg.
Hidey is blowing zzzzzzzzz's to the max with wings spread and head pointed to 2 o'clock.
At Pete's Pond a small adult Water Monitor is stalking some Guinea Fowl, but since they know he's there and are watching him carefully, maybe the stalking is the other way around.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Good Night/Good Morning,
All eagle lovers....
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Good morning all. I am off to do the March of Dimes Walk. Raining hard here. Have not heard from Helen either. If she has not gotten any relief I will try to get her to call the doctor. Have a great day.
Good Morning Eagleland
Ceil sorry your walk will be in the rain.
Yes please let us know about Mits.
The copywrite is only about the webcam at Finland Hailuoto Land Nest
Lynn comment at 8:49pm says Land Nest.
Early morning to you Jim. How's things out your way?
Belle was in nest with Hidey with food. Liberty flew in only to have his talons hanging onto the edge of nest. He tried to get in further but Belle wouldn't move. Finally Liberty flew out. Leaving Belle to feed Hidey and then do nestorations.
I love opening the cam to see more than one eagle in the nest.
Good morning, another beautiful day here.
It looks a little foggy at the nest today.
GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDDIES!!----I have read yesterday's blog, etc.---CONGRATS! PAULA!---'you did good kid'---ho!---HEY!---I don't think I am dreaming but I am most sure I saw an EGG in the FINLAND NEST!!---What a beautiful nest!!----That is an artifical nest---SUZ & I found out about 2 yrs ago!!---(hope i wasn't dreaming)

Yes, I agree Dana. Hidey looks bigger than Lib!
Yes, cool wet and rainy today!
Looks like a staredown contest!
So Dana is that still Belle in the nest?
Hope Ceil has a nice walk in the rain!
Hope Mits can start feeling better...she must be miserable!
I love that you can see their eyes blink!

Good Morning All!
No comment about the drizzles out there but won't be going over to Sheph'town market this am. I don't mind dodging rain drops but I don't want to do any slipping/sliding on those WV sidewalks.
Praying and thinking about you Mits! ♥
lol It really is a stare-down contest!
I had to stare until something moved to be sure it wasn't a frozen cam.....
MORNIN' PAULA!---She thinks she is the BEST too!!---ADORABLE little IMP!!----ho!
Mema Jo best stay in today anhow. I got the crook pot on lol
Boy Dana! - you were the Night Owl last night and now you are the Earl Bird!
MEMA JO---prayers that you DO NOT SLIP!!----'take care'!!!
Looks like Big Bird is going to attack the eagle. If someone came in that didn't know anything about the site or eaglets/eagles.
Jo up at 3am took pain pill still couldn't go back to sleep. Seem every which way I turned. I hit a boulder in my bed. I surely hope it hits me later for a panda nap.
CEIL----Here's hoping you have a 'dry' WALK this morning!!
BEST WISHES TODAY!-(you go GIRL!!)
Sorry Paula just caught all of your comment. Yes I would say that is Belle in the nest. Unless there was a switch while I was putting clothes in washing and taking others out of dryer. By the way I just whispered I was doing that. My Grandmother would have my head on a plate. If she knew I was doing that on Sunday.
Dana - Sunday is the only time I have to do laundry...speaking of which...
Good morning everyone. I was going to save a pic of the stare down but the still cam is frozen at 5:57 this morning.
DANA---i can't open my emails!---Need to call Atlantic bb---I did last week---now it won't open again!!----I hope you feel much better today & get a PANDA NAP -- as JO would say!--ho!-----
Today is RAMP FEED---don't know if we can go---will be a MUDDY place!-
ps---You need a plate of RAMPS--in WV they are known as a 'SPRING TONIC'----ho!----
Dry those wings out, Hidey!
I am reading the Sunday Paper - we don't get one on Monday's anymore - cut cost - keep jobs!
Ok it is that time no matter what washer and dryer say. I can't keep my eyes open any longer.
Will check out comments on the wing flapping competition between parent and child. When i fcome back in.
Is Lib showing Hidey how he should be doing it. He just finished flapping his wings (which caused her to duck to avoid being hit), and then when he finished, she started flapping her wings and jumping around the nest as if to say, "this is how to do it." It was neat!
I think that was Liberty in the nest...he just left
Want to try to check out any DC Fonz news on our Maybe Soon To Be Panda Momma.
Hedgie found a comment last night that they were putting her in "Lock Down"
DANA----Before you leave----PLEASE TAKE YOUR HAIR DRYER to our nest!!
ho!----Wishing you a pain free nap!!
Yes, that was cute, wasn't it Joy
Welcome!
Hi Joy - I think it was an "In Nest Lesson of Flapping"! Be sure you click on Paula's avatar and watch some of the videos that have been captured!
Fly in!
Thanks Paula,
I'm new to the eagle cam . . . just ran across the address as a link from some other website - this is really enjoyable, could spend hours watching. When it's too hot or weather to bad to watch the blue bird nests in my own back yard, it can sit in the cool AC and watch this one.
I am assuming that our SOUND is still DOWN.
Do you think BELLE wants 'BIG BIRD' to fly!!!--Keeps pushing her around??
Looks like Belle has arrived!
Where do I find Paula's avatar?
Deb - what is your weather there today?
Any paddling or pics being taken.
I really love those turtles - and especially the pheasant.
LOL, Belle is tenting over the bowl.
Click on my name...then scroll down to the eagletmomsters blog.
Where are you Joy? Sounds warm and sunny!
MORNIN' JOY!---I wanted to say---(it's a joy to have you)---but I am sure you have heard that before!!---WONDERFUL to have you join the EAGLE MOMSTERS!!!
No, Jo, I really do need to get stuff done at home today. I am one of the laundry crew today.
Oh yeah, laundry...bbs
Now I can say for sure I'm done for the day (as far as getting anything productive done)! I'll be looking at these pictures and videos till midnight! These are great.
Thanks for the welcome all.
I'm in Charleston, SC - 84 degrees and sunny now. No rain likely in the near future. I was actually "hot" yesterday, think the humidity was high.
Back to look at video's and pictures. How in the world did you get to see the real thing? I'm jealous!
Joy - I live about an hour from the nest...went there yesterday for a 5K run/walk. We can also get on the grounds for a visit with advance notice...we are planning a trip in a couple of weeks!
South Carolina weather sounds great to me!
BWE Update -
05/03/09:
We're seeing the occasional image where neither eaglet is present in the nest. We think it's a little early for either bird to be flying, but we've asked our Refuge staff to keep an eye on the TV monitor at the Refuge for any clear flying/landing activity.
Incoming! Lib brought brunch!!
Joy There are others that have these personal blogs - just click on names & then you can back arrow to return to the Eagle Cam Blog!
Enjoy your weather today.
Hope Lolly from TX didn't blow away last night..
Repeat of our Nest Weather:
SundayShowers likely in the morning...then showers in the afternoon. Highs in the upper 50s. East winds around 5 mph. Chance of rain 80 percent.
MondayShowers likely. Highs around 60. North winds around 10 mph. Chance of rain 60 percent.
Monday NightShowers likely. Lows around 50. Northeast winds 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60 percent. AMEN
Hidey didn't try to mantle it this time with Belle in the nest...She was first on it!
It seems---most every day is laundry day!!-----DEB!---Do your dogs notice that you are gone every day?----
Hidey is looking at Belle like, well aren't you going to tear that thing up now?
Lib checking on his little (big & growing) girl! She is really doing well.
Love it when I see the feathers blowing.
They are sometimes so still you think the cam is frozen...
Parent at BWE with fish!
Parent at BWE is eating....
Can still only see parent and 1 chick at BWE
BWE - can only see parent now.
I'm back. It rained the whole time but a nice crowd. I spoke to Helen she is still in a lot of pain. BBL
Yes, Norma, my dogs notice I am gone, especially Abbie, the black one.
Glad you liked all the turtles, Jo, and the Pheasant. I think there are 22 turtles in the one pictures.
Ceil, thanks for the update and Congrats on the walk. Helen, I sure wish you could find some relief from the pain!
Both eaglets visible at BWE - parent gone
Belle and Hidey still at the launchpad with the fish...
Ceil - Great Job! How far did you walk? Thanks for the update on Mits. Hope you told her we were all concerned about her!
Fixing breakfast...bbialw
Thanks Ceil! You're a real Trooper walking in the rain! Hope you get a hot tub bath & take the chill away.
Now - still sending up prayers for Mits' comfort and healing. This 4 days of pain - Mits just doesn't deserve all that!
Good rainy morning, fowl friends.
Jo, the tidbit about Mei was on the 11pm news last night.
Jim, if you check in, there are supposedly two eggs in the Finney water best....go to the link that Dana posted last evening for their forum and keep scrolling til you see the pic with a green circle around the eggs.
Margy must have been really pooped this am...never checked in before she sacked out....wanted to see if she knew what happened to the ducks on the interstate!
I had an early breakfast cereal but now I need real food! Brunch food!
Norma I hope you can make it out to eat your ramps!
BBL Scrambled eggs maybe!!! Uhmmmmmmm.
Lynn Here is the info on our Panda:
The Panda House will be closed until further notice. We don't know whether Mei Xiang is pregnant but due to her her early estrus and the Zoo's large spring crowds, Zoo staff made this decision to give her a quiet environment. Thanks for your understanding.
Scientists at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo detected the start of the decline in urinary progestin levels in the Zoo’s female giant panda Mei Xiang (may-SHONG). This hormone decline indicates that Mei Xiang’s reproductive cycle will be concluding fairly soon. Animal keepers report that she has been spending more time in her den and cradles objects as she would a cub. Staff does not know whether or not Mei Xiang is pregnant or experiencing a pseudopregnancy, or false pregnancy, which is common in giant pandas.
Starting this evening, Zoo volunteers will monitor Mei Xiang on the panda cam 24 hours. I really wish Mits gets in on this before we should get out little stick of butter!
Yes Margy WHERE ARE YOU?
BBL
Thanks, Jo.
Most definitely praying for Mits to feel better soon....know she doesn't want to miss out on any of the "watch" that she may be lucky enough to get assigned for!
OMGoodness I just saw the 2 eggs in the nest at Finney on the Water.....
WHoo HOo. And I remembered I could take a pic...... Wow! Suz will be happy!
Both adults our nest. Looks like a good delivery, but it is kind of small.
You can see the eggs at the Finland water nest!
Dang, and just like that, she got back on the eggs.
Back in...some GIANT HUMAN made enough noise to wake me up grrrrrrrrr
I didn't even set buzzer on dryer so it wouldn't wake him up.
Well now I'll finish up one load to dry in dryer. Putting clothes away now.
So GLAD ( : you all are getting to see the eggs at Finny on the water.
Lord give MERCY to Mits. That doctor has to give her a little something for pain. Mainly because it will wear her down. We don't want her catching a cold or anything now.
Ceil hot tub or shower to warm those worthy walking bones. Maybe even nice cup of warm tea if you don't drink coffee.
My next load is ready, too.
Too bad about Jack Kemp passing. Always thought he was such a handsome man.
Split is coming!Looks like not much has changed, except the eagles positions in the nest...fishy still there...
I think they closed the panda house last week or the week before....Mits mentioned it on here.
WAX!!---LOLLY---
