well, I AM FEELING BETTER! How odd...temp is back to normal and tummy feels a bit better now!

Still can't Lily cam :(

magpie said...

ha ha ha we were ready for that one !!

Mits said...

Lily is sleeping...

movin said...

I had a chance to see Liberty-Belle this time, even in full screen.

But my computer started herking and jerking...until I shut off the radio I was listening to. Unfortunately they took off not long after that.

Beautiful visit though. Has anyone seen any "bonding" yet??

magpie said...

got your last comment from pre-split, Ceil...
I know I have a lot of things to remove from the computer, pictures already in albums, programs I rarely use, and think I need a defragmentation also...
YouTubes, almost stop and start

magpie said...

oh yeah, Jim, we have seen some bonding all right, and Paula has it on her blogspot, a video...

☺ ♥ ☺ ♥

magpie said...

almost ALWAYS stop and start that is, YouTubes...

okay bye

hedgie said...

Hi, Jim. Glad you haven't floated away! Hope everything is okay with Andy and Anne Marie, too! Some crazy weather everywhere!

movin said...

The Hummingbird chicks are doing very well. Are you watching?

ceil said...

I accidently opened the e-mail. Rats.
Jo did you know the rain in Spain is mostly on the plains

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GWEN! Hope it's the best ever!

Prayers for those needing healing--Chrissy, and Lynne especially!

Have been laying low today, and lurking some, trying to get caught up with what's happening. Have gotten more laundry done, and cleaned house a bit, too. It's been raining here still, hard rain at times. Still have an itchy, irritated, tickly throat from school last night. Have been drinking hot liquids and soup to try to help it. Seems to work pretty well.

CONGRATULATIONS, LILY, and DR. ROGERS!

Shirley, hope you can get the puter straightened out--know it's frustrating as all get out! Have missed you! Say hello to George for me!

Dana, hope Little Man is feeling better. Prayers for his kidney!

Jo, hope you get your e-mail fixed, with no ill effects!

Margy, hope you are enjoying some well-deserved time off!

Well, my dryer is chiming at me--will be back in a bit. :o]

ceil said...

I am starting to hate spiders.

hedgie said...

Beautiful sight at Big Bear, Jim!!!

hedgie said...

Of course hope it stays there! Don't want anymore snow here! Do you ski, Jim??

hedgie said...

See how well Momster prayers work, Lynne????

Diann, does you dad live near you? Don't recall if you were with us in the early summer....my mom celebrated her 90th here with us from Missouri. Happy early b-days to your son and your dad!

PA Nana said...

Lynn missed the whole announcement but the one that caused all the trouble in 1979 is going back (to where I'm not sure). The new ones (2) traveled close b us and Jim wnet "down nthe road" and watched them pass by. He did get some pics. They were HUGE!! they came from France into Port Deposit MD

Driving by TMI a few weeks ago you could see there was contruction going on there was a huge crane outside on tower where they're removiobng the old and putting in the new. You could see some of one of the new ones on the ground but no clear picture.

..

T-Bird said...

Hello eagle buds.

hedgie said...

Ceil, didn't Jim was a baker!! What kind of rolls did he make---yeast??

ceil said...

Yep. they are good and one with butter fills me up
Got to tell a secret. He uses Pillsbury Hot Roll Mix.

Mits said...

wish I had some rolls:)

Mits said...

cubby whining

ceil said...

Does anyone know how long before another cub would be born?

Mits said...

I don't know, Ceil, thought I read somewhere it could be as long as 17 hours before another birth, but I'm confused have read some much stuff lately

Mits said...

Lily moving around cubby still whining

ceil said...

Mits know what you mean

hedgie said...

Remember the '79 incident well, Diann. We were all on alert for possible need of receiving "refugees" at the plant. It changed the way we had emergency contact info recorded, too!
Who would have thunk that they would import those from France?! Bet it was something to see. Maybe the old one will be shipped back there.

hedgie said...

Thanks for the clue, Ceil---I'll have to try that mix! I should have gotten a box of bread mix and used the breadmaker----it hasn't been off the shelf in a couple of years.

Mits said...

OK some bear expert from Yellowstone is telling the chatters, that Lily is done...would not have another cub this far from the other...so, I must have read it wrong....maybe I didn't read it, maybe I'm, just hallucinating...trying to keep my black bears and Giant Pandas straight

hedgie said...

Cool helicopter dog rescue from the flood waters in LA.

ceil said...

I tried to google it but did not give that information Gave weight at birth10 to 16 oz and length 8 inches and she has most of the time 2 but could have up to 6 but that is unusual

ceil said...

Lynn we saw that but I think it tried to bite them while they were trying to get it into the copter. Don't blame it

hedgie said...

I am laughing at myself...duh, head slap. After bringing in the papers this morning, I saw blood on my fingers. Found a cut on my thumb. Kept trying to figure out what I had done. I just remembered-------when I closed the umbrella I pinched it. Sure hope I'm not getting senile!

Mits said...

hmmm, bigger than a giant panda cub

hedgie said...

See that Bear Center took the gift shop heading off the site completely now! My, oh, my---don't think they had any idea what they were starting...

hedgie said...

Mits, I could have sworn that I saw somewhere too that it could take a couple of days if there was more than one cub.

Lynne2 said...

Just heard the UK has raised the terror level to SEVERE. Watching women in particular

hedgie said...

Yep, heard about the dog biting the fireman on the 2nd report. Can you imagine 50-60 firefighters turning out for it, tho'? Unreal.

ceil said...

Lynne I just saw that also
BBL

ceil said...

Lynn your okay I think but I do the same thing. Bump into something say ouch and later wonder where I got the bruise.

Lynne2 said...

Just saw the dog rescue!

hedgie said...

They aren't releasing much info on it, Lynne....wonder what's up? The British authorities have caught/broken up a lot of threats in the last 8 yrs. for sure.

hedgie said...

I've got a hitch in my gitalong...going to recline for a while to see if i can take the pressure off my sciatic nerve. BBL.

Lynne2 said...

I heard that 6 people on a "watch list" have tried to board westbound planes, 2 were stopped at Heathrow. They are watching EVERYONE who has been in and out of Yemen. Pretty scary.

I'm off to soak in the tub for a while.

Lynne2 said...

before I go, from FB

Lily the Black Bear Yup, that's a coyote you hear on the den cam feed.

Darn, I still can't get the cam.
BBL

Ms Bookworm said...

I'm back, to let you know I've gotta turn the chicken over. Hubby's home, too, so will be back later--after dinner. Going to make a salad while I'm in the kitchen, too. Getting hungry--had an early lunch! BBL... :o]

Lynne2 said...

Daisy was fascinated by my bath!! Hopefully now she know there is nothing to be afraid of!

Think I'm going to bed to read for a while...still can't get Lily.

If I fall asleep, good night, and prayers for all!

hedgie said...

Good night, Lynne. Hope you feel 100% come morning--or before!

I am also heading for the tub. Know I won't be gone for good, but i see an early night, too. Have too much housework I must get to tomorrow!

Costume Lady said...

Lily Giving Birth Video now on WILD AND WONDERFUL.

Judie said...

Hi all,

Dinner over. Meatballs finished.

Lily in well-deserved sleep. Other critter cams quiet.

Lynne, hope you feel all better by morning or before.

Lynn, hope the recliner works.

Going to watch some tv. Back later.

Lolly said...

Hi all! Just returned from a fantastic dinner out. Yum! Got right on the Lily cam and can hear the little one. Cool! Also, I think I faintly heard a screech owl earlier. It was very faint.

I now get Lily the bear fb updates on my phone. Gotta love technology! So, while we were gone I got the notice that watchers were hearing coyotes. Love it! Jack just rolls his eyes at me!

Jo, we can not get a virus from opening any mail that is from you. Only if we open an attachment.

Lynne, is sick? Need to read back.

paula eagleholic said...

Margy, I have a real tough time on my old puter too with the feed. I can only have the blog (if I'm lucky) and the live feed up at the same time. I'm about ready to order that laptop!

Jo - will send out an email thru Momsters. Did you see Jim's suggestion of changing your password? But if they got it once, they can probably get it again.

magpie said...

Weather channel, soulful program regarding Haiti....
fundraising appeals, and
performances by many, also on the PBS channels

Good Evening all....

Mema Jo said...

Jim I was finally able to get into hotmail in order to do that. Whomever took my account had changed the password and I couldn't get in...But I did get an email informing me of the password change.... figure that on out.
I did go right in and was able to change it again - Hopefully whenever the intruder signs out she won't be able to get back in HOWEVER by now all my addressees should have been copied! Right?

magpie said...

thanks Paula..."misery loves company" ...not really! wish you didn't have to fuss with it either...

I just defragmented, took about 3 hours, that might zip things up a little

Chances are my tax refund money will go for some things with higher priorities though I'm sure I'll be tempted...might just have a geek work on the antique instead

hedgie said...

Jo, I deleted you and blocked you, but just got another email from you showing same address........DID you send it??? About the mouse and cheese??? I didn't open it.

magpie said...

also on the Haiti program,
lots of speech presentations by celebrities, and a whole bank of celebrities manning the phones

ceil said...

I got it also but did not open it.

magpie said...

Jo: This is just miserable....should have happened to someone like me AND NOT YOU !!!!

ceil said...

margy it should not happen to anyone. Scum

paula eagleholic said...

Lolly - glad to hear you are using that iphone...what else is it for!

magpie said...

ditto that, Ceil....

paula eagleholic said...

I didn't get it...

paula eagleholic said...

That Haiti fundraiser is on the major networks, too, Margy. I hear Bill Clinton talking now.

paula eagleholic said...

I am stuffed full of fried oysters, hush puppies and salad w/ bleu cheese dressing :)

paula eagleholic said...

Madonna singing now.

magpie said...

I see that Paula...very impressive...liked Clinton's words

sounds like a great Friday night chowdown at your roost !

hedgie said...

Jo, where are you??? Let us know if you sent it, please!!

Mema Jo said...

Yes Lynn I replied to the Strong Cheese email You, Ceil, Helen and Wanda should have received it

I don't think it will hurt to open.

Margy - you are wrong - Happened to me cause I have hubby (Geek 1) and gs (Geek 2) to help me out. All is well BUT there is no where to find a phone # to talk to someone about specifics.

My gmail account is up/running but I am waiting to hear from Hotmail's HELP desk before I go over. Hubby did
transfer all my addresses already so I won't lose them.

magpie said...

but someone somewhere, will find a way to complain about it

magpie said...

okay Jo...I understand, glad you have those geeks ! ☺

ceil said...

Thanks everyone. Pleasant dreams

Mema Jo said...

Magpie - Complain about what.

Can't relate your comment to someone else's.

Hedgie I AM RIGHT HERE

magpie said...

Good Night Sweet Ceil....

magpie said...

I'm not quite hip enough to know all these artists on the show...

magpie said...

Jo -
sorry it got defragmented....I was referring to the Haiti show being on so many television channels.

magpie said...

it went back to Paula's comment at 9:19

hedgie said...

Okay, Jo. Good to know that it did come from YOU.......but now wondering why my AOL didn't block it since I blocked your address!?!?

magpie said...

sure was surprised to see Lady LW on her nest on the middle of the night when I was sleepwalking, sure thought she was about to drop an egg...
empty nest there now, but, maybe, later
can't recall the egg-laying schedule there

Mema Jo said...

Good Question - because I used the same address (I'm using a different password which would have no bearing on the blocking of it)

NatureNut said...

Good Evening!!!!
Got the bear cam on & played the youtube birth video. Baby is a little squealer & Lily does HOO HOO like an ape! Amazing!

Late the other night when new Live cam went off, I get it open later and durn if there wasn't one Spidey thread blowing! I thought Nu took care of that!

Mema Jo said...

LW was always about the Last of the egg layers..... I'll try to check out a date from Judy's log.

magpie said...

disappearing for awhile

Good Night to any Early Roosters
xo ☺ ♥

floralgirl said...

So you are using your hotmail email account, Jo? Cause I blocked that in my email account.

Costume Lady said...

Margy, I don't have a clue as to who some of these entertainers are. 3 blondes with beautiful voices and don't know any of them...there was one I recognized as Cheryl Crow. We are enjoying the commercial free entertainment:)

Mema Jo said...

LW Before April 2nd 2008

March 22nd 2009

Mema Jo said...

Keep me blocked until I holler.....

I/m going to send you a test from Hotmail... Just let me know if you get it - delete it when you do.

magpie said...

Whew Thanks JO - - lots more time to wait then, sure was mysterious to see her standing there .
Mits sent me that listing last year...sorry I got lazy....

Wanda, I think one was Christine Aguilera earlier...
and maybe Jessica Simpson ?

Mema Jo said...

I got your email reply Megan and I just made a reply to you with that Lily has a Cub message.

Lolly said...

Yes, Paula. I love my iphone. I am having fun with it. Tonight I also took a picture of our dinner and sent to Michael. lol He has been wanting to come over and eat at this restaurant. (Our favorite Italian hole in the wall!)

But I love the fact I can get on fb as well as the blog.

magpie said...

Wanda...I do wish they would ID the performers, but I guess there is a purpose in that, a humanitarian purpose...

Lolly said...

Listening to talk about old computers. Jack has said we are going to get a new one. His consulting job will pay for it. Yea!

I do love my laptop. It is faster than the computer.

NatureNut said...

Re: Bear Cam~~ I read yesterday that because of the volume of watchers they had to temporarily remove some sites, like gifts, so more people could engage. They did mention the 2 T-Shirts. Lord knows when they'll get caught up.
Printed out my maps (in case I do my own side trip - Tee Hee). We're doing the 66-81,37,522,127,29 to Paw Paw. Got it all! Could also get there from Hancock.
So, if I hit the hay soon, Pleasant Feather Dreams to all ;>)
and have a wonderful Sat. watching cams! Hope I see an eagle somewhere!

floralgirl said...

Got it, Jo.

Lolly said...

Nite Loweeda!Sounds like you have a day planned. We are going to Denton for Joseph's basket ball game. ☺

Saw that about the t-shirts. I want one...guess we have to wait to order.

Costume Lady said...

Has anyone listened to my tape of Lily Giving Birth? If so, did you hear one or two cubs crying? I think lot of the noise was from Lily.

floralgirl said...

From the bear.org site
Growing Pains
We are experiencing some growing pains as we deal with record amounts of people accessing the website. Please "bear" with us while we reconfigure parts of the website.
To understand the kind of growth in traffic to the website, here is one overwhelming statistic. Yesterdays's traffic to our website was over 10,000% higher than the same day last year! None of us would have thought that this would ever happen.
Currently, the NABC Gift Shop and the ability to purchase memberships are currently offline. You will also find that some of the various information boxes on the website are missing as well. We will be selectively turning all of these on as we further optimize the website.
Thank you all of your understanding, and thank you all for your donations. Becuase of all the changes we have needed to make to the website our monthly expenses to maintain it have skyrocketed as well. So anything you can give will help us keep it running and help pay down our debt.

Thanks again!

magpie said...

Loretta, have a great trip...I recognize all those roads!
forgot about Rte 127 - -

Honk when you cross the WV line...

Wanda, I haven't but I will...listened to a couple of others earlier

Great finale on the Telethon..

Lolly said...

Wanda, I was listening to your video when Jack turned up the sound on the hockey game, and shortly after that the mantle clock chimed. lol Did not have the nerve to tell him to be quiet.☺

paula eagleholic said...

Lowreeda - have a good trip tomorrow!

Mema Jo said...

Loretta - safe journey
Should be a beautiful day!

hedgie said...

Wanda, can't watch your video yet. Have to do it during the night sometime when I won't get "charged" for using too much bandwidth!!! If I wake up during the night between 2 and 7, I'll watch it!! THanks for posting.

Costume Lady said...

Where are the other Lily videos?

floralgirl said...

On You tube and there are some on the Lily Facebook page.

movin said...


Wanda! Great video, although I couldn't see a lot. I could hear a lot, and I definitely think Lili has twins in that lair of hers.

C(°ٿ°)D

Jim

Lolly said...

Wanda, I posted one on facebook. I shared one that a lady posted. I think it is the official cam video.

Lolly said...

I do too, Jim. Time will tell.

Lolly said...

Wanda, let me know if you find the one I posted.

movin said...

As for Mema Jo's email, I checked my AOL site, and I have received nothing from her in a couple of days.

Has she resolved that yet??


C(°ٿ°)D

Jim

Mema Jo said...

I wonder if in tomorrow's morning light we will see another egg in the BWE nest?

Be really great if we do see twin cubs.
I wonder how many hours are between panda twins I think it was Atlanta's last cub that they thought just maybe there were 2.. and they told us how many hours to wait before they said no, only 1.

Lolly said...

Talk about cute videos. On Lily's fb page, up at the top there is a tab for videos. There is a video of Lily and her brothers in their den when they were 5 weeks old. It is precious!

Mema Jo said...

Has not been resolved officially;
however, I did as your friends did and finally got into my hotmail and changed my password. User account is the same

Mema Jo said...

With this email problem - IF Glo had not emailed me and then called me about the crazy message she received - I'd still be in the dark!

NEVER NEVER give out any passwords!

Mema Jo said...

I sent you an email Jim It is Me.

movin said...

Thanks, Mema Jo. I'll open AOL and take a look.

I also sent you (and everyone) an email earlier and didn't get a reply from you, sooooooo ??

Some day, maybe, I'll be able to open all my AOL screens at the same time (not holding my breath though), but until then I can only access each for a limited time each day.

On the other hand, it's much more convenient to keep my family, my Marine buddies and my eagle buddies separate on individual screens.


C(°ٿ°)D

Jim

hedgie said...

Good night, dear peeps. sweet sleep for all. Safe travels for those going anywhere tomorrow (Loretta and Frank, Lolly and Jack!!!). Fun for those partying (Jo and Ed!) and wellness for all ailing. Prayers and peace.

glo said...

Just stopped in to check on everyone and everything. I have you totally deleted MeMa Jo on my email only of course :-). So unless you send to me well. I have had a long day in Ely MN and with Dex getting me up during the night last night I feel really tired so going to call it quits early today. Hope everyone rests well.

Lolly said...

Okay, all, for now I am going to stick my nose in my kindle. lol It is not a book!

So, good night to those who will be leaving soon. I'll be back to say good night.

hedgie said...

P.S. Jim, the only email I got from you today was your reply to mine about Jo! So please send whatever it was to me again!!

magpie said...

Wanda
I'm afraid I can't give you an answer about two cubs or one on your video...my clunker ears, plus my YouTubes are still starting and stopping...a lot.
often when I type cubs it comes out dubs...
clunker fingers too

Costume Lady said...

After listening to the other video on facebook (the one off to the side) I would say there are two different cubs crying. My cub was not as vocal as the other video and I did catch it at the moment of birth...when the squeals are the loudest. Two cubs.

Costume Lady said...

I guess we will know for sure tomorrow:) At any rate, it was awsome to be able to watch and listen as the birth happened:)

GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL

movin said...

OOPs, Hedgie. I think I misspoke.

I was thinking of that 360° photo of Utah. But I "got" that from someone on my eagle buddy site and "sent" it to a bunch of my family and friends.

[:~D] A really great link to the rock formations in Utah.


C(°ٿ°)D

Jim

Mema Jo said...

Very tiring (mentally) day! So glad you all are here for me always!
Heading down the hallway. Big b-day bash tomorrow at noon for hubby.
It will really be fun!
Can't wait to show them the Lily videos

Good Night All
Peace and Love to All
Prayers for everyone in need
((hugs)) ♥ ♥ ♥

movin said...

Talking about Lily, is the cam on the the same FaceBook page??

I haven't opened a cam page yet for her, but I have no problem accessing the regular F.B. page.


C(°ٿ°)D

Jim

Costume Lady said...

JIM...LOOK ON LILY'S FACEBOOK PAGE. lOWER LEFT SIDE.

Judie said...

Most exciting day in Lily land. It will be fun to watch and maybe see the cub(s) tomorrow.

Jo, so very sorry for the inconvenience and annoyance. You don't need it. Yep, we're here for you, always.

Turning my light out but leaving the night light on for others. Andy, please set the alarm for us later. Pleasant eagle/bear cub dreams for everyone.

floralgirl said...

Gonna go watch Conan's last Tonight Show:( Nite all.

magpie said...

Good Night everyone from this Roost also...

Best wishes for a carefree tomorrow...as a medevac flies over to the local hospital...
prayers for that person, and all our other needs on here

God Bless Us, Every One

xo ☺ ♥

paula eagleholic said...

They are saying Lily might be having another cub...

paula eagleholic said...

I can't get the cam...

Hitting the hay, see you in the morning!

Hugs to all ♥

Lolly said...

Lily is quiet.

I am going to bed.

Nite all! Sweet baby bear dreams!

(((Hugs)))♥

Jim

Lynne2 said...

and why am I up??? The baby cub is crying!!! Such precious sound! Don't think we'll get another look so soon as mom is protecting him from the cold winter.
Back to bed, as I wonder if I hear 2 babies......or if this one is just really noisey!

T-Bird said...

Good morning you fine eagle momsters and dadsters.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Well, good morning everybody. That cub certainly sounds really sweet this morning!

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING SHARON & THELMA...
I have been listening to and recorded some cub sounds this morning and I now believe there is only one cub.
I also read that the cub is about 9 inches long and weighs about 3/4 of a pound...a lot larger than we thought (someone said the cubs were the size of walnuts) So, it shouldn't be too hard to spot BEARLY, if and when Lily decides to turn over or leave the den:)

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

EAGLE ALERT!

Judie said...

Good morning, everyone.

magpie said...

Good Morning Everybody too...

Hi Judie

Guess we missed the Eagle Alert..poor Sharon was all by herself ??

magpie said...

from BWE:

01/23/10:
If we're getting a second egg, it should come sometime today, or tomorrow at the latest.


sure looks nice and sunny there now...

wvgal_dana said...

Good Eagle Morning Thelma, Sharon, Wanda, Judie and Margy.

Is that sound I hear on Lily's cam the cub?

magpie said...

Wanda...That sounds like a pretty big cub...might go sneak a peek...
or try to

magpie said...

Finland Water nest..the time and date shows 10:41 on Jan 22 - think something is not working quite right on that cam today...
:(

Lolly said...

Good morning! Can you believe I am up and ready to go for the day?

Love the cub baby sounds!!!

We are leaving soon for Denton and Joseph's ball game. Did not plan to go this weekend, but yesterday Jack found Joseph's team uniform in the back of the van. So, it is washed and ready to go. Have to get there early!

T-Bird said...

Nice long eagle visit this morning. I miss seeing them in the mornings during the work week.

wvgal_dana said...

Isn't that sound just adorable. Makes you want to just cuddle it...can someone reach in and hand it to me tee hee

Lolly said...

Yes, Dana, that is the cub. They say they make sorta of purring sounds while nursing. Cute, right?!!

Lolly said...

Sure! Mommy won't mind. ha! I think one would loose their arm!

magpie said...

Glad you saw the eagle visit Thelma I was up then but try to take care of some home business first - my prayers!

Yep, nice little baby cub sounds

Have a good day Lolly

wvgal_dana said...

Boy that little thing is noisy.

Have a good day and hope they win their game Lolly.

magpie said...

Happy Birthday to Jo's Ed today...
Hope it is a Glorious Happy Day

Lolly said...

Jack just heard the cub for the first time. He said "Sounds like he was with us at dinner last night." This is a tiny restaurant, only 6 tables, and there was a baby in an infant seat crying most of the time.

Lolly said...

Is that snow or fog at the nest? Looks like fog.

wvgal_dana said...

This is actually history in the making. Wonder if they will change the books for schools. Now to show what really happens with the bear during wintertime?

wvgal_dana said...

Oh that is fog.

magpie said...

Oh remember that Megan said:


NEW THREAD !!!

wvgal_dana said...

LOL Jack is right it does sound like a baby like many have said.

Happy Birthday Ed's Mema's hubby
