SPLIT
no told him, I was watching eagles, he said whats new...
Norma we saw Dr Sharpe climbing up to the nest
We also saw him get the eaglets and put them in bags. Saw him and lady crew person climb down Norma.
Checking out now...and there is Hidey for some more entertainment !!
Yeah, Ceil....pieces of shell all over the place...at least carcass stayed in one piece!
Hi ya', Mits....sorry you had to drive home in all that rain. Glad you are safely back in your main roost!
Hope you have a fun evening.
Margy, drive safely and have a nice visit with James!
It was great until the banding part came into play. Now we wait...like it was said. They might be doing a documentary. Which hopefully we would get to see later.
I think Norma got the WAX didn't she?
Guess Wanda is eating crab legs by now.
think Norma fell asleep...lol
Heading home...later...
Have fun Margy with gs.

BBL
Nice pics, Magpie!!! TY!
Drive careful in the rain Paula.
Norma WAKE UP !!!
DEB---2 KESTRELS remain in box!---
Just read - on same site--NEBRASKA has this 'chronic wasting disease' --- we have that in our Co. (HAMPSHIRE)---WHITE TAILED DEER--That's a horrible disease!
she never did answer you about the earrings, did she Dana?
No Mits NORMA never answered me ????
What a beautiful SAILBOAT gliding in.
sailboat
Must have been my computer---I couldn't see them---Saw the still pics!
NOPE--Didn't fall asleep----
DANA---I sent you the WAX!!
she is just worried about the wasting disease;)
MITS--Go back & read!!---I said way back that I bought the earrings!!
NORMA...I know what it said, but where?
Thank you Norma for the WAX but me no want it.....
Are you going to tell me about these earrings you got???????????????????????????????????NORMA N O R M A?????????
and what do they look like?
theyre back!
wow eagle almost got him
I don't know if you can see the WE site yet, I just opened it...
The nest has no eaglets, so the protection group must be processing them now.
Meanwhile both parents are perching side-by-side two peaks over and next to the beach.
At first I thought both eaglets had fledged and perched over there, but according to the blog it is the adults.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
One in nest now 1 to go
wasting disease is killing deer in WV--my co--I was just telling DEB----I just read that NEB has it too!!---it is devastating--
They are just returning the chicks to the nest,
and Superbird 01 is dive bombing the Dr. very closely.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
your an hour late Jim, its all over.
Glad your getting to see Jim we were wondering about you. ( :
Both eaglets are in the nest again, and no humans are in sight now.
01 was really getting aggressive, and the peoples got the H out.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Jim we have been watching for over and hour, it was good stuff
everybody seems happy at the nest
Norma I just thought you might describe those earring. If they are eagles they must be beautiful.
01 just glided in to a landing on the beach front peak they were on earlier.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Dr. Sharpe sure check his hat that he almost lost to the eagle, bet it has a mark on it
I'll have to think of someone to give that WAX too. hummmmmmmm
I see an ad on tv where guys need the WAX too.
Jim you got the WAX Norma gave me!
Both adults are on the wing now. 01 appears to be shadowing the people, and Wray seems to be circling the nest, saw her right in front of the camera once.
They're probably getting ready to check out the eaglets and the nest.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
give it back to Norma:)
DANA---I'm sorry---i always thought when someone sent you wax---it meant they were thinking of you--ask sharon--
That was cool at WE, saw some of the action earlier, too bad they didn't show the banding itself.
Happy to say it has finally stopped raining here.
I had called Lynn when they were climbing back up to put eaglets back in nest.
I've never heard that about the wax? We don't even do the wax thing anymore
got the regular view back now, can hear the adults in the background
I'm glad you were able to see by then, Mits.
I just thought I'd better get a few quick descriptives down, in case you couldn't see yet.
Now we're getting the zoomed in and adjusted, so I guess the Dr. must be in that area.
Did you read what the chicks' numbers are?
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
If that's what the wax means, please don't ever think of me...lol...
HAve had a new annoying call this week, OTO inc., scaring people into buying a home security system-finally got a person, poor Joe never knew what hit him, my profanity laced reply left him speechless...bad me...
True Norma dear but I'm going to share it with Jim. If you don't mind. I hope it is ok with you.
Thanks, Dana, for call.
Hope parents feel better now!
Megan, we'll probably be able to see the banding on video clip next week when they post the Catalina Report.
Did you see this week's report with the Twin Harbor's banding?
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Jim they never moved the camera in close the whole time they were banding. Nor did they let us hear this time what they were saying. So we don't know what numbers they banded the 2 eaglets with.
Oh boy they are going to figure out the squeakie mouse in the cam!!!!
Nope, don't have time to keep up with all these cams this time of year, read the play by play on here.
Gotta go make arrangemnets for a graduation party tomorrow.
You know what? I really never knew what you were doing with the wax exactly.
But I bet at my age and lack of hair, I don't care too much.....
Hahahaha.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
DEB--1 KESTREL is climbing out now----leaves 1 all alone--do you think that will cause the last one to leave---
no worries, Jim, wax is history:)
good for you, Megan, he deserved it!
Well, somebody will give us the numbers, either on the blog or in the report next week.
Did you see that K 88, which was from TH last year or the year before has been spotted in the Pacific Northwest??
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Sure you DON'T need the wax, Jim!
Time to eat....BBL.
MEGAN---GOOD FOR YOU GAL!---That is just a bunch of CRAP!!-- supposed to scare you!!---too smart for 'em!
Still hear voices at WE..
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
WAX was reported to be given on Monday June 01, 2009 at 11:45pm by someone to someone....so I think whenever someone wants to use it ...it is in play so to speak.
Update from NZ FONZ:
It has been very quiet around the exhibit lately as the pandas and staff settle back into a normal routine. About seven to ten days after Mei Xiang's hormones return to baseline, her maternal behaviors gradually disappear, so last week we cleaned out her abandoned nest, and returned her drain grate, Kong toy, and plastic ball "cubs" to their proper places.
Tian Tian has been very mellow. He is sleeping the early summer days away in the grottoes, often skipping a meal as his appetite is beginning to decline. Bamboo loses some of its allure around this time every year. Tai Shan still has a great appetite. He weighed in at 205 pounds this morning.
That would be dancing queen Star at TH - glad to hear she has been seen.
bbl going to eat
WooHoo! Arsonist who set fires outside LA that killed 6 firefighters in 2006 was sentenced to death today!
Winner,SD rancher winner story on news, too!
I haven't found the picture good at WE most of the season, so I haven't made up my mind about the sexes of the eaglets ... or anything like that.
BUT... the profile of that one in the rear of the nest definitely looks female to me.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Wonderful update by Steve Hartman on the Tara and Bella story from Jan. Original piece prompted all kinds of offers for books and movie, etc. about the twosome (best buds elephant and dog at sanctuary outside Nashville)....owners said no way... they weren't about to let them be trained/controlle, etc....they aren't here to serve us...they are living peacefully and happily. Good story...made me cry!
lol Adult landed in the nest with a fish
Sounded like Hidey was Hung Up at the
cam... Not in the nest yet
Both adults in the nest
Hidey has arrived
Listen to that!
Wow!! Did you see Hidey fly in and go right for the food?? Drove both parents out of the way.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Hidey chased off both adults with the squawking and manteling! What a sight that was!
Not sure what Hidey is thinking of doing
I guess it is the fish in the right talon!
wow, that racket made me leave the dinner table to see what was going on! Can't blame her/him, I get like that if someone comes near my chocolate! See you later, back to dinner!
Lots of comments to comment on!
The WE banding - where they banded the chicks, I don't think the cam can be adjusted in the stand to have been able to view the working on the eaglets on the ground. The only time they hand held for the banding, was 3 years ago with Limuw...they had a hand held cam they hooked up to the internet line. TH - they just swung the cam around and they were close enough to be able to view it. They should have up close video on next week's IWS update.
I think the documentary is gonna be on PBS...they spoke with Harpo, too, when she was out in CA recently for a tour.
Mits - I did win a tour, last year, but had over $1000 worth of repair on the kids car...so I gave my tour away. I was invited out this year, but just can't get away for the tour.
Hey look at NBG. They are panning around, and the spider web, which was there a few minutes ago, appears to have fallen off!
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
WHAT A SPOILED 'BABY'--BELLE & LIB have raised!!---ADULTS in nest with food & this SCREAMING 'BABY'--came flying into the nest & TRULY PUSHED--MOM & DAD out of the nest at the same time was mantling the FOOD!!---Hope they take his 'wings' away---he needs better manners---WHAT A RIOT!!
Jim, if you are talking about the black thing on the cam...that was a dead spider....
SHE isn't even eating the food!---BABY is looking down from the nest!!
Oh, darn!! the web is back at NBG when they are pointing at the nest directly!
Must mean it is not on the lens, but hanging in front of it in that position.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Hidey just flipped the shell over, he was cleaning his beak on it. Now munching on more fish.
POOF for Hidey
And Jim, that dead spider is inside the camera lens.
They are focused on one of the eaglets out on a branch! Cool...
JO!---'BABY' needs to have her 'wings' taken away until she learns some manners!!---SPOILED LITTLE DARLING! ho! she is a trip!!
NBG eaglet to the left of the nest...another one flapping away in the nest.
PAULA---Isn't that the EAGLET that has fledged on the REBELS site?!--I saw the other 2 in nest!!--was watching when HE flew to the branch---
I would think so Norma.
other one must be branching off to the right.
That's not the way they described it in their blog, Paula...and I think they are sealed so that the spider couldn't have gotten inside the lens.
Anyway, I was going to say what you said about the branching and the rigorous wing exercising.
"And" I don't see the firstborn returned yet, do you??
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Hope things have calmed down at our nest. Love it that we have sound and if not watching the cam at least we know when something is going on!
BBL
Yes, the oldest has returned to the nest, Jim. Came in last night for dinner.
They said on the DGIF blog that the black thing on the lens was a dead spider, inside the cam housing.
My NORFOLK site is acting up!--They have moved things around--NEST is further back so it appears smaller!!
Sorry, Jim, that info was in a WVEC article, not the DGIF blog.
Hey everyone! Yucky weather here in southern WV. I see we were number 1 yesterday. Yeah!!!!! Way to go to everyone here. That is great! Been to the gynecologist today - yuck! Just a checkup. Any breaking news? I am just tuning in.
Here's the article link I posted on here the other day
WVEC article
Last sentence.
A large dark spot that recently appeared on the Eagle Cam is actually a dead spider inside of the camera dome.
Norma - they zoom in and out...
Hey Bibee, we watched the banding of the West End eaglets today...
Hidey is doing fine! Eating and peeping! and flying!
Yep! The third eaglet just returned to the nest from the right.
First time I have seen them all there since the accident and the fledging.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
You can see all 3 at NBG now...eldest out on the branch, youngest 2 in the nest.
INCOMING!!! wow that was neat!
Both adults in nest
Big Fish brought in
GUESS WHO JUST DROPPED IN ?
Lovely fish dinner delivery and here comes our spoiled eaglet, as Norma refers to Hidey..
One adult went Poof
Put a picture of the arrangements I just made on my 'flowers' blog.
Hidey sure is getting plenty of fish delivered today.
And some garden pics on 'whatever'.
I don't think I have the West End eaglets on my favorites list. Anyone have the web address? Thanks! Did Hidey ever come home last night?
Who is that with Hidey right now?
Hidey is back
Go back and check Jo's comment at 4:05 today, there's a link to WE nest.
Did you see this entry in the blog at NBG??
I don't know "dome", but it might be like a lens shroud. But anyway, they already tore some of the web away by panning the cam back and forth.
And earlier, when I commented on it, the cam was all the way to the left ... no web or spider in view???
Don't know what happened exactly, but it wasn't there temporarily.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Web stuff
Jim I don't know how it dissappeared and reappeared, been stuck there for days....
Maybe that black part blended in with the tree.
Awww, look at that. Hidey was eating the fish like crazy, but now the adult (Lib?) has it and is eating some and feeding some to Hidey.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Pretty arrangements, Megan. Someone should be very happy!
SPOILED just isn't the correct adjective - Just 'Plain Rotten'
I would say Can't believe Hidey shared and now gets beak fed by the adult
Thank goodness I tuned in when I did. Been in Rock Hill SC today and didn't get my Hidey fix before I left this morning. I surely enjoyed the videos and all from yesterday. Some of you are just wonderful on the computer. Talk to you later. Love, Gwen
Hidey bounces out of the nest like he is on a trampoline!
Poof for Hidey! Lib still eating!
Love that snapping sound of the wing at fly out!
Lib went Poof!
BBL
I just reports them as I sees them, Paula. Hahahaha. I suppose you can choose to disbelieve me.
On the subject of seeing, I was just looking at Bob's photos from last weekend, and they are really awesome again!! I don't know how he does it week after week.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Poof for Lib...guess we're gonna have an MT nest tonight again...Hidey snoozing on the branches with Lib and Belle
I think we need a field trip to Megans'....gardens are absolutely beautiiful! And if I know anyone who needs flower arrangements for any occasion, I'll send them to you, girlfriend!
Flowers are as beautiful as ever and
your gardens really show off all that hard labor and long hours that you put into them.
BWO off egg cup. See what you can see.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
On Finney Land cam (Saaksi 2009)
Can any of you get the nest centered?
Raccoon starting to gather in the PA woods....
No black bear on Snowman cam - just black squirrels.....
"Looks like" a golden cascade at the WE nest right now.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Jim I didn't see one thing
I do like Lisa's pics but even in those I am just believing what I'm being told that I see. Camouflage in Nature is fantastic!
Check out Two Harbors
No, not yet anyway, Mema Jo. Suzanne had a pic of it with about half of the mama Osprey showing, but I can't even get it that well yet.
They're still trying to get it going, but it's not there yet.
And still nothing changed at the water nestcam.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
HEDGIE---I agree---MEGAN has the 'knack'---for making marvelous floral arrangements!!!
TH? Mema Jo. I see the head of the eaglet that has been "branching" near the camera much of the afternoon.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
I wish I knew what that noise was and/or who is making the noise.
Motorized I guess!
That is what I saw at TH - the eaglet was exercises wings big time!
Did our feathered friend BURP
into the Cam? Sure sounded like it!
lol
Adult in nest looking for nestovers!
Going to check out a 9:00 Hallmark movie on TV....
Be back during commercials... of which there are many!
Yeah, I'm outa here too. At least for a while.
Have a good evening, people.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Thanks for the kind words:)
Check out my latest addition to Lynns' Lair!
Wow, saw a pic of the SD rancher multi-millionaire! Good looking YOUNGSTER!!!
Where the rancher lives is beautiful country. At least it is to me. Wide open spaces, with beautiful bluffs around. Unfortunately, it is an area of the state with a lot of poverty. I hope he follows through on helping the community. I think I have a picture of the area. I'll hopefully be back, so you can see.
Gee, where is everyone tonight? Hot dates? Dinner out? TV? I'm feeling lonely!
Hi, Deb!! Hope your weekend plans are easy ones...you need to rest before your trip.
Commercials are starting to get longer & longer then my Hallmark movie!
Saw your turtle having a feast, Lynn!
Hi Deb! Do you need to paint more this weekend on the house?
BBANC (be back at next commercial)
I shut down the computer and am going to try this again.
Yeah, success. I think I need to clean up some stuff on here.
Lynn, lucky turtle, poor snake.
Jo, a little painting left to do, but have to get on the roof to do it. The rain is coming, but I am hoping it dries up later on Sunday.
Not my turtle, Jo...at daughters' place. I haven't seen my turtle at all this year....usually appears earlier than this..I've been wondering about it and hoping it's okay!
Was trying to work on what video I had of the WE banding...not very much after I lost the good part...will post Jann's video....she lost some too, but it has most of it.
WE Banding - Today we got our wingblings
I had trouble, too, Deb...blog didn't take my last post, and then it threw me offline, but it recovered itself and reconnected...but post not there!
Gonna check out for tonight...heading to Mom's just for tomorrow...see ya'll later!
Hugs to all ♥
It's been a l-o-n-g day...turning in! See you fowl friends tomorrow. Prayers for all. And a final HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Tbird!!
I am shutting down, too. Night everyone.
Ranch country pictures are on Deb's Photos.
Have a good day, Paula.
Good Night All
Prayers for all need being said...
((hugs)) ♥
Oh, Good Night Remaining Eagle People wherever you are....
Hope it is a peaceful sleep for all. Saturday, is the first day of the rest of our lives ☺
Did T-Bird give us the slip all day? What a bashful Birthday gal !
18 minutes of glorious birthday time left, Thelma. xoxo ♥
God Bless Us, Every One. xo
I'm out of here for the night. I have been piddling on the net. Talk to all tomorrow. Sweet dreams!
Terrible noise at our nest. Hidey's screaming probably blew out the speaker:) LOL
Crab legs were good tonight, as was the comany. Denise, Jill (granddaughter) and Dustin,joind us for dinner this evening.
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SLEEP TIGHT
PRAYERS FOR ALL
Oh, I see she T-Bird did sneak on here earlier....just found it ! What a talkative bunch of Momsters and Dadsters today. Good Night again....xo ☺
Good Morning Eagle Friends...
Nest is empty...all's quiet there right now.
Finney's Nest (land) looks A-OK this morning, nest view right as it should be ! Nice !
Megan
Your flower arrangements are Boss !
Off to the work place soon for me, working 6 am to 6 pm for a change.
Best wishes to all for a good day, in whatever you need to do...work, play, travel, watch for Hidey, and so on and so forth. Birds are waking up in Shepherdstown, lovely sound on the cam. Now let's hear a few Eagle peeps !
See you much much later on.
xoxo ☺ ♥
The kid was just IN and then OUT - but I think he is close by...
See Ya'. xoxo
GOOD NIGHT/GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE.
I crashed early last night, and now I'm doing this...at least temporarily.
I'm going to see if my Finny's works this morning, Magpie. It's been a total mess (after the blank days) for weeks.
C(°?°)3
Jim
Finney's is in transition for me...
Got almost a blank, but every time I refresh I get something different.
Got a perfect picture, except it was smaller, with no surrounding info, then hieroglyphics, and once I got the regular size picture with the "nest notes" tab across the Osprey.
I'll try again later. They're making it better slowly.
C(°?°)3
Jim
I have a smaller than usual picture at Finney's. Looks perfect, but the rest of the page is missing and I don't believe it is refreshing automatically.....
They might get it back yet though.
C(°?°)3
Jim
Nobody in the Sheptown nest at this moment...
BWO is starting to dry out this morning. There's no new note from Lisa on the third egg, and so far the female hasn't stood up while I was watching.
C(°?°)3
Jim
Look at BWO now. I think she is going to feed them.
I can clearly see one chick and one egg...better than I've been doing. They really fit in with the nesting materials in an unedited picture.
C(°?°)3
Jim
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE..
I could hear Hidey way off in the distance around 6:30 and just now at 7:13am, Belle brought in 'something' and didn't stick around to see Hidey's antics. She has learned that this kid won't shut up until he is left alone or fed...she wasn't in the mood for feeding, so she took off:) It looks really strange...might be a half-eaten fish.
