A Third Bull Arrives
November 26th, 2009

Another bull showed up this morning. Both his antlers are intact and they are a size bigger (probably a year older) than the bull in the previous post. He seems unfamiliar with the feeding routine in my yard while the other two bulls have clearly been here before. I couldn’t get a good shot of him as he wouldn’t venture very close to the house. He didn’t get anything to eat this morning but he did reappear this evening.

NatureNut said...

Learned Wed. at work that the mother-in-law of our former Park Dir. & Div. Chief was fatally injured in a car accident on Mon. afternoon. I know that family well, and the daughter's 3 sons went to school w/our GS who we saw yesterday. Funeral Sat.

normabyrd said...

I am anxious to see CLOUD walking------He should win an award for being the sleepiest PANDA EVER!

Mits said...

that's sad, Loretta:(

normabyrd said...

OH LORETTA!---That is so sad---and when it happens during the holiday---it always seems harder---My deepest sympathy----

ceil said...

Morning all.
Loretta so sorry.
Off to the store.
Will cook my turkey today.

normabyrd said...

Our temp is dropping--wind & rain isn't helping---shoppers must be dedicated to go out in this weather!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle at BWO

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' CEIL!---different strokes for different folks!!---ho!----sounds good to me!!

Lynne2 said...

Morning all...some peeks of sun here in R'town this morning but cold and windy!

Doesn't feel like a sunny day though after hearing the news of Dana's Ed passing away. My heart is breaking for her...

Dana, if you're getting a chance to peek in today please know how very, very sorry I am for your loss.

Mema Jo said...

Good "Red Friday" or "Black Friday"
morning to all! I choose Red!
Missed the shuttle landing - thankful it was successful. It is so thrilling to see those touchdowns!

Thinking of you Dana and know that you are strong. We are here for you!

Mits said...

Judie said...

Good morning, everyone. Thank you Steve for the new thread. Hope you had a glorious Thanksgiving.

Jo, congratulations to Heather and Jeff.

Eagle at BWO; snow at Snowman; Diego napping.

WV Wh.House tree in the news yesterday. I think said this is the third tree. Congratulations Shepherdstown!

So sorry, Loretta.

Norma, you are going to love seeing the boy walk. Adorable. Just like a baby -- curious but hesitant.

Off to do some reading for next week's final two class days.

Judie

paula eagleholic said...

Loretta - so sorry.

Eagle at BWO found some nestovers :)

paula eagleholic said...

FYI - Ft St Vrain eagles nest is supposed to go online sometime in December, with both cams working!

Mema Jo said...

Lynn - the Events shows me that Aaron's birthday is Saturday. I just didn't realize it couldn't be seen on the Home Wall by everyone. He's the second oldest grandchild - big 3 0 !

Mema Jo said...

I have to get all my eagle cam favorites up top on my favorites..
Ft St Vrain lost their eggs/chicks last year - right?

Mema Jo said...

Love the avatar, Paula!

Mema Jo said...

hedgie said...

Loretta, so sorry about your friend. Tragic, for sure.

Weather has run the gamut here this morning....sun and blue sky to rain showers and wind. MArkedly colder with that wind blowing.
Unfortuantely, it IS time to fire u the woodstove....will do that after lunch.

Pook is going tobe kept busy AND poor if her herd keeps growing!

Jo, had no idea that Aaron was "that" old!! LOL!

Mits said...

Mema Jo said...

It is also very windy in my valley
I am going to yell big time when I see that 1st snowflake!

Mits said...

just make sure you keep the snowflakes up there:)

paula eagleholic said...

Kewl, our eagle! :)

Mema Jo said...

I told Bev to keep them out there! lol

Mema Jo said...

Paula - they both came in about 20 mins ago but Lib wasn't there for long

paula eagleholic said...

Maybe he's out searching for the perfect stick to please her :)

Mema Jo said...

That could very well be the case!
She has been looking back & forth alot.

Mits said...

she is probably saying...no, not that one, too small, too big...:)

Mema Jo said...

Paula are you home or at work?
Suz had off today... I called her last night after 8:00 and first thing I asked was how late do stay up - and she said she could stay up as late as 9:00!

paula eagleholic said...

I am at work today...

Mema Jo said...

Did you bring a turkey sandwich for lunch?

Mema Jo said...

Speaking of lunch - I want to watch Belle but I am hungry! My piece of pie for breakfast has left me.......

BBILW

paula eagleholic said...

Wow , Belle still hanging out.

Eewwiie at BWO

paula eagleholic said...

Saving the turkey leftovers for dinner...

floralgirl said...

Well, cool, a bird in the nest.
Hello all:)

Mema Jo said...

Hi Megan! Bird has been here a long time. Glad you are taking a break & getting to see Belle.

hedgie said...

Paula, love the avatar!!

Fire is roaring! Despite wind, NO downdraft, so I didn't choke to death!

floralgirl said...

Howdy Jo. Lunch time here.

Mema Jo said...

Can't believe Belle has been in the nest for over an hour......

Mema Jo said...

Megan - might have a snowy market day!

hedgie said...

Carolyn and I are heading to CharlesTown this evening....Christie's bell choir is ringing at the Christmas Tree lighting downtown. Carolyn has never heard them play, so she is excited. Will grab a bite out on our way...sure will need to bundle up!

floralgirl said...

Snow flurries don't worry me. The wind is miserable out there, and it really is no fun being out in it. Gotta get back to work. bbl...maybe...

Mema Jo said...

Belle went POOF !

Enjoy your evening Lynn and yes do bundle up with a scarf covering your nose! lol

Mema Jo said...

Wanda found a really good pic of Dana & Ed and placed on FB......

paula eagleholic said...

Sounds like a nice evening, Lynn.

Mema Jo said...

I am now going to go POOF

BBL

Ms Bookworm said...

Good Morning/Afternoon, Everyone!
Need to make this visit a quick one--Hubby's antsy. Loretta, so sorry to hear of the loss of your former Park Director's mother-in-law. Prayers for her family, and for you! ((Hugs)), too.
Need to get showered quickly. We've already been to Hubby's sister's house. Supposed to babysit the bulldogs this weekend. Got there, and no house key. Rang the bell a few times, and SIL came to the door! They hadn't left yet because she was violently ill all night with vomiting and diarrhea!
YUUUUUUUCCCKKK!!!!! They're supposed to drive a rental car all the way to Frisco. I hope they decide NOT to go--what if she gets sick again? Both their grandkids and her son and his friends have had this MISERABLE bug that's going around. EEEEEWWWWWW--how can she want to spend 10 hours driving in a car???!!!! Prayers that they decide to stay home!!!! Gotta run--will be back later, for sure. Have a great RED Friday! (I refuse to call it BLACK!) Love you guys! :o]

Ms Bookworm said...

Oh--Paula, I LOVE your avatar, and yours too, Margy!

Costume Lady said...

Hello Everyone...
I think there is a lot of PANDA NAPPING going on right now:)

I keep forgetting that everyone of us isn't on Facebook, so I have posted a sweet photo of Ed and Dana, taken at Open House in 2007. So glad I saved it. It can be seen on Wanda's Wishes.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Wanda for bringing it to all the bloggers!

hedgie said...

Thanks, Paula. Yep, Jo, have hooded coat, scarf and gloves! May even wear my fake Ugg boots!!

Costume Lady said...

Andrea, they should stay home so she will the have the comfort of a bathroom;)
Speaking of staying home; Sunday, in church, there were so many people sneezing, coughing blowing their noses, etc. and all I could think of was "why didn't they stay at home?"

Costume Lady said...

Lynn, it is soooo cold and windy, wish you would stay in your car and observe your little Bell Ringer!

hedgie said...

Watching the National Dog Show that I recorded yesterday....BEAUTIFUL Neopolitan Mastiff! If only I had a bigger house....what a lovely dog. They said owners have a towel in every room to mop up the drools!!!! NO DOUBT!

hedgie said...

Wanda, what a good pic of Ed and Dana! Thanks for posting it.

magpie said...

Good Afternooon and still morning on the West Coast..

Great Eagle Visit Pictures, Jo!
Lovely picture of Ed and Dana, Wanda.

Really striking Avatar, Paula, and I liked the one just before this also ☺

magpie said...

Loretta, sad news about the mother of your grandson's friends, sudden and tragic loss. I am sorry...

magpie said...

Hi Lynne - that's a cute avatar ☺

hedgie said...

Oh, no, Mr. Bill...it's sleeting!!!

Mema Jo said...

Now what is the plan Hedgie?

Love the Christmas eagle Lynne

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Gang,
I'm back for a moment while Hubby's in the shower. Got a phone call from SIL a couple minutes ago, and she says they've decided to go to Frisco!!! Personally, I think she's psycho. Hope BIL doesn't get sick too! We'll go feed and care for the dogs, but SURE won't be spending any time in that house!
Taking a can of Lysol and some gel hand cleaner with us, too. Sure won't be spending the night there!!!
Know what I mean?
Well, guess Hubby wants to go out to lunch somewhere. He's totally got 'cabin fever' today for some reason. Maybe we'll go to a movie.
Cute avatar, Lynne!
Well, better git goin'--or Hubby may go without me! Will be back later, for sure--well, Good Lord willin' and the crick don't rise!
The weather IS better here, today.
Instead of 83, it's only supposed to get to the low 70s. That's more like it! Later...Love you guys!
:o]

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

There is an eagle in our nest!!

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

I think it is Belle and she looks busy!

magpie said...

WE HAVE AN EAGLE

magpie said...

Hi Sissy - I'll say busy !

With Food !

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

It has been a while since they brought food to the nest, hasn't it?

magpie said...

I believe so, this is a good sign!
My pictures from last year show some food coming in about this time ☺

magpie said...

breakfast lunch and dinner

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Lord we need our live feed!

magpie said...

I am guessing fish.
got a few pics up.
good to see you Sissy

Love to all the family...xo ♥

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

You too Magpie! Trying to work some. Work has been kinda spotty with the holidays and all that. Trying to make up slow times, but my heart ain't in it! Can't stop eating long enough to get anything done!!!

ceil said...

Just read where Tiger Woods was serioulsy injured in a car accident. He was pulling out of his driveway and hit a fire hydran
Lynne love your avatar.

Mema Jo said...

Andy - you're a Hoot!

Don't touch those dogs or let them
lick you!

Mema Jo said...

Ceil I am anxious to see what the injuries are and see if he was alone in the car. My news report hardly had any details in it!

Mema Jo said...

Watch out Sissy - that demon is going to get you! lol

Sorry to hear about Tiger Woods..what in the world...

Good Afternoon more Eagle People!

Called Dana, got machine left message told her the eagle in the nest was there for Her ☺

gotta shake a leg...it's going to be dark soon, need to get OUT -

Mema Jo said...

Nope Jim - Being sensible and staying home eating left overs!

I hope you had some turkey yesterday!

magpie said...

I don't find a link yet to death announcement for Ed, will keep a watch and post when I see it come up.
xo

ceil said...

Jo it said that he pulled out of his driveway and hit a fire hydrant and then a tree and his injuries are serious. Hope he is okay. You never know from second to second.

ceil said...

margy it may not be in for a while if they will not be doing anything until the first part of December.

hedgie said...

Tiger was treated and released w/ facial injuries. No air bag deployment so going under 33 mph they said. No alcohol involved. Funny how serious changes so fast to treated and released! Oh, well, glad he's okay.

Gotta finish getting ready.....gotta pick eldest upa t 5.
See all y'all tonight sometime.
Good luck to you 'eeeer fans.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks for the update Hedgie
Media can sure make a monster out of a mole hill......... (or however that saying goes)

Mema Jo said...

Margy - It hasn't been submitted yet.
Visit to set up things was just this
morning. Wasn't looking for it to be out in today's paper...

magpie said...

okay out the door here too, I feel like Ralphie...coat, hat, gloves...
and RED SHIRT
And Camera.

Ceil, you're right, could be a delay in the posting for Ed...between Hedgie and me we will keep an EAGLE EYE out for it.

Take Care all

xo ☺ ♥

magpie said...

ok Jo, see that last post...
thanks...

Mema Jo said...

The obituary should appear in the
Martinsburg Journal.

Mema Jo said...

Stay warm Margy ! This kind of coldness goes straight through you to your bones !

ceil said...

Boy that was quick. Serious to released. Glad he is okay.
Lynn have a good time.

PA Nana said...

stronghunter said...

Good evening!

Have been mostly relaxing today. Worked hard all day yesterday and then went to dinner at Tom's brother's. I was really tired today.

Built a fire in the fireplace last night for the first time this year. Still need to order some firewood.

Mema Jo said...

Shirley, when do your guests arrive or have they already?

stronghunter said...

Jo, my guests arrived yesterday and left today. Rus is still here. His girlfriend, Rebecca, will come back tomorrow night for Hunter's birthday dinner.

The other guest, Jason, is a food writer. Jennifer, the hostess last night for Thanksgiving, did not know that there was a food critic at her dinner until it was over. But he said he enjoyed the dinner. I thought it was very good! Hope Jennifer wasn't too unnerved. He was very polite, and helped me fix breakfast this morning. I don't think he has had too many country Thanksgiving dinners. He grew up in New York City.

ceil said...

Paula that is a cute avatar. Did not know what it was a first.

Costume Lady said...

While we were at Deb's Memorial luncheon, Lori Olivieri asked for the receipe for Gene's Beans. I had forgotten that I promised I'd SPILL THE BEANS on his receipe. It has a lot of ingredients and takes a while to prepare. There is enough for any ARMY, (remember he was Mess Sgt. for 15 years:) You can easily reduce the amount of ingredients for a lesser amount.
********************************
GENE'S BEANS

2 cans 40oz Great Northern Beans
2 cans 15oz Whole Kernal Corn
1 cup Green Peppers...chopped fine
1 cup Onions...chopped fine
1 cup Celery...chopped fine
1 cup Carrots...shredded
1 Tbsp. Garlic Powder
1 cup Catsup
4 Tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce
2 Tbsp. Tabasco Sauce (or less)
1 Tbsp. Seasoned Salt
2 tsp. Dry Mustard
1 Tbsp. Liquid Smoke
1 cup Dark Brown Sugar
2 Lbs. Smoked Sausage...chopped
3 cups V-8 Juice
*******************************************
Mix all ingredients together
Slow Bake in a 275-300° Oven
for 3 hours.

May be served over corn chips

paula eagleholic said...

My Thoughts and prayers are with Dana and her family at this most difficult time

stronghunter said...

I saw a nice story on CNN about the Christmas tree people from Shepherdstown. First time they did not mention Shepherdstown, but the second time they did.

paula eagleholic said...

Diann - I snagged my avatar from a picture that was posted on another forum!

Got the cleaning bug tonight...going to have some turkey leftovers first, and then hit it!

Costume Lady said...

Shirley, Gene and I were food critics, as an innocent looking couple, for a number of years. It was kinda fun, but then there were too many meals that we had eat and had to spend a good deal of time making a report on the food we ate, the cleanliness of the restaurant and the restrooms...had to remember the name of the waitress and manager and what kind of service we got. Had to take note of the condition of the parking lot, the dumpster, etc.
We were doing this 3 and 4 times a week. Some were out of town. If I told you who our employer was, I'd have to kill you;)

Mema Jo said...

Secretive munching - Wanda?

Mema Jo said...

Paula if you get too energetic you just might put up your Christmas tree!

I've been listening to some Christmas
music and I love it!

Mema Jo said...

Be Back Later This Evening.........

stronghunter said...

Thanks for the recipe, Wanda. It sounds like enough for an army!

magpie said...

I've had Gene's Beans....!
They are awesome...thought I had a picture of the dish but I don't..

Good Evening Eagle Pals.
Clouds too heavy for ISS tonight here for me :(
Saw some snow flurries.
Going to check on the WVU-Pitt Game...

magpie said...

magpie said...

Good to see friends on here.
Shirley - busy busy, sounds like things went well yesterday for you.

magpie said...

WVU just scored, with 4:34 to go.

magpie said...

Oh sorry,

TTFN got to go soak in the tubby and get warm
xo ☺

paula eagleholic said...

Hey Norma, just found out my neighbors kid goes to WVU...so he's a Mountaineer! He left today to go back to school to watch the game.

stronghunter said...

Stopping by to say good night.

stronghunter said...

Will see you tomorrow. I have been really tired tonight. Still much to do this weekend.

Have been watching television with Rus. Will is home now, so they can visit, and I can sleep.

See you tomorrow.

paula eagleholic said...

Well, at first I was going to Conowingo tomorrow (Sat), then we changed it to Sunday...now it's back to Saturday. So I will probably make an early night of it tonight...going to Conowingo tomorrow...leaving around 7-7:30...probably stay most of the day...

Lolly said...

Kids are in bed. Laurel is reading and Jack is reading and watching the STARS on TV. Thought I would just check in.

Laurel and I went to see New Moon today. We really enjoyed it, but we have read the books. Think you have to read them to really understand what is going on.

Tomorrow morning she is going home. Leaving the boys with us. We are going to Dallas to spend the day with Michael and family. She and Joey are going to a wedding and reception. We are taking the boys home Sunday afternoon.

Lolly said...

Sounds great Paula. Hope you see many many eagles!

paula eagleholic said...

Night, Shirley!

Mema Jo said...

Nilla (Janet Kolb) went out to eat with Dana & her mom this evening. Paper should have obit in tomorrow

Dana will be having a service for Ed at Rosedale on Sunday evening here in Martinsburg... He will be cremated and have a small burial service at a later date...We had a nice visit for hours... Her moms a hoot too... She is doing fairly good just alot to take care of right now... Pray to give her strength at this time..

Anyone available to attend Sun service
please come.. Probably 7 pm but you'll need to check the Obituary in the paper tomorrow. Dana needs our support. I sure will give you any more info as I get it.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

BLUEFIELD BEAVERS ARE HEADING BACK TO WHEELING!!!!!

Mema Jo said...

WHOo HOoo for the Mountaineers!
Norma should be shaking those pom poms big time. Sure hope WVU can hold Pitt back! It's 4th qtr and about 5 min to go - anything could happen!

Mema Jo said...

Here's hoping you see Eagles, Eagles and more Eagles. Is your camera battery charged? Just checking! lol
Have a blast, Paula.

Mema Jo said...

CONGRATULATIONS BLUEFIELD BEAVERS

Mema Jo said...

OH NO! Norma may have fainted
Pitt scored & games is 16-16

magpie said...

Thanks for the post about Dana from Nilla Jo...comforting that friends can be together during these times

Have fun Paula...better dress warmly like Ralphie!

WVU-Pitt tie gam 16-16 2 mins 10 seconds to go

magpie said...

Lolly -

magpie said...

WVU wins, by 3 pts

What a big win in Morgantown!

That kicker is a Hero
4th field goal of the night...

Wow

Mema Jo said...

Whoo Hoo for Norma's team!
They sure came through for her!
19-16....

The Beavers and Mountaineers are
WINNERS............

Costume Lady said...

YEA EEEEEEERRRRRRSSSS!!!
16---19.

Costume Lady said...

Margy, I'll bet Norma's pom-poms are falling apart by now!

Lolly said...

Yes, Margy. It has been a fun week and it continues through Sunday. Have a few weeks to go and we will repeat it at Christmas. Laurel loves to come home and just relax. She works so hard that it is fun for her to come home and be the daughter again. lol And, we certainly enjoy it as well.

Lolly said...

lol The boys have been sleeping this time in the living room. We have two guest bedrooms, but they chose to sleep of the sofa/bed without sheets. They have their sleeping bags on top of the mattress. Silly boys!

Costume Lady said...

Just like camping out, Lolly...only in:)

magpie said...

It would be way cool if Norma could pop and celebrate !


and Yay for the Beavers...


Sounds wonderful Lolly....just
great- - and a slumber party tonight...the best !

hedgie said...

Hello. I'm home. After read blog yet, but wanted to say the winter wind is howling and there are snow squalls like crazy! Brrr......argh!

magpie said...

You're right Wanda, I might have to get Norma another pompom...
and maybe a set of fingernails!

Going to bed soon...
See you friends in the morning.

Prayers, for Dana and Family, all other needs here, and for Safe Travels for all

God Bless Us, Every One
xo ☺ ♥

magpie said...

Welcome Home Lynn...hope the evening was beautiful, and hope you get warm very soon.

Mema Jo said...

Hi Lynn - thanks for the weather update. I have been hearing the wind all evening! I hope your wood stove is putting out the heat for you!

Mema Jo said...

Lolly - I love that comfy feeling when children and grandchildren come home and an overnight. Seems pretty long ago for me but I really can feel it!

hedgie said...

Did You Know......
Invasive species thriving in places they don't belong in our country alone number 50,000, w/ $150 billion damage each year.
A Burmese python can grow to 20 feet in the Everglades, and can lay 100 eggs every 3 months. SCARY!

hedgie said...

Paula, hope you have a great viewing opportunity tomorrow!

No one ever commented on my likely eagle sighting yesterday....:(

Glad that you got that info about Ed, Jo. Thanks. I'll be there. Hope others will join me.

Lolly said...

Yeah, and they are predicting the pythons spreading throughout the lower states. That's when I move north!!!

Lolly said...

While you are having cold weather, we are sitting here with the house open. Laurel and Joey heard coyotes last night as they had their window open,

hedgie said...

Yep, came home to a nice warm house....got fire built back up and getting toasty. Program was great except for wind blowing music pages for the musicians! I was hooded and scarfed and Ugged and gloved, and stood behind courthouse pillar which blocked wind pretty well. Didn't really get too cold!
Ate dinner at IHOP and had more pumpkin pancakes!

hedgie said...

Got a nice thank you letter from the SD Ornithology Union for my contribution to them in Debs' honor. No word yet from BOP,NW (Janie). I'm sure she received it okay, tho'.

Mema Jo said...

My BOP check hasn't gone through the bank yet... Address I had was good but maybe Janie hasn't decided on the project!

Lolly said...

Lynn, I have not heard from Janie either. I am sure we will in time. Opened up facebook tonight. And, you know how facebook puts a friends face up and say you have not contacted them for a while...write on their wall. Well, tonight Deb's picture went up. Gave me a funny feeling.

hedgie said...

Congrats to Bluefield gals on their Beavers' win! Hope they do well in Wheeling! And also to all Mountaineer fans on the squeak-by win!

Lolly, have fun with your boys and their "camping"!

I had Gene's beans, too---they are very good!!

hedgie said...

In Idaho, a lab was seen trotting down a street with a still-wrapped turkey in his mouth! Yep, he was a retriever! No word on where he found or stole the bird!!!

Oh, Lolly, how disconcerting that would be. I still haven't deleted her from my email or address list. Guess it is that time. Can't imagine deleting her from Friends list on FB---that would be way too hard.

Wind has been bad enough that I ran over two limbs in driveway............hope wind stops tomorrow so I can hopefully finish up leaves for last time this year.

LOL, Lynn, sounds like you were wrapped like Ralphie! Sorry I missed your post on your eagle sighting! Good for you!

I am going to wrap to stay warm, but still function! Was checking settings on my camera...heading to bed now, catch ya'll late tomorrow.

Nite and Hugs to all ♥
