looks like the 2 yr.old Female Giant Panda, Mei Lan, from Atlanta, is going back on the plane to China with Tai, according to Channel 9...no confirmation on Atlanta site, just says she is leaving February 2010.
also no confirmation on NZ site of the 4th, sounds like someone leaked it to the press, I can see some fanatics camping outside the gates of the zoo now.
not really Paula, all pandas born outside of China, must return to their country when they turn 2, Tai got a two and a half year extension, looks like Mei got a 6 month extension.
Good TV night! House, 24 and Damages. So glad those last two are back! Goodnight to all my fine fowl friends. Hope everyone sleeps well, feels well, and that all of the little nuisances of life leave us all alone! Prayers, and God bless us all.
Had a surprize visit from my neice and great nephew(7 mos.) from Pheonix today. So good to see her and meet "Prime"??? Weird, yes! Turning in now...babies make me sleepy:)
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS SLEEP LIKE A BABY PRAYERS FOR ALL PRAYERS FOR A SAFE FLIGHT FOR NEICE
Hi all. Just realized today that the live camera is back. I've been watching Lily for a few days, and that got me to Facebook, which I joined. My goodness my life won't be my own for a while....
Have been laying low to try to beat the allergies that are bugging me. One panda nap after the other! Woke up a while ago and cleaned up the kitchen and started the dishwasher. Didn't go to school last night. Just didn't feel well enough--too clogged up. My eyes are tearing up like crazy now, so can't see very well to drive. Sent the teacher an e-mail, and stayed home. Need a Tuesday Dr. appt.! Haven't had allergies this bad in decades! Will have to let the doctor sort it out. MUST get in to see her Tuesday! Can't miss another class.
Megan, sure am sorry that Monday was such a bummer! Glad your shop vac did the trick. Hope the rest of the week is much better!
LOVED the video of the cat drinking water, and the one of the surprised kitty!
Sharon, that's FANTASTIC that you got backstage passes for TRAIN! Yippee!!!!
Margy, hope you're feeling much better, and that your early workday is an uneventful one!
Well, getting sleepy again. Goodnight, everyone! Prayers being said for all. Sleep well, and will talk to you in the morning light. G'night, all. Love you guys! :o]
Finishing up a few grades this morning. I have to have everything ready by 9:00, then off to my doctor's appointment. All grades are submitted by computer, so I can do it from home.

Missed Lily the bear give birth, darn. Hope your winter is going great. Son is home from Ft,. Bragg for a few more days :) and then I'll get back at this again.
SHARON!--'BLUEFIELD SHARON!---You will have so many 'good friends' that you will have to have a BODY GUARD for protection!!!--Is T-BIRD going to be a GUARD?---WONDERFUL!!!
Not many EARLY BIRDS on any more!!----MARGY had to go in VERY EARLY!----so I missed her!!---& SUZANNE isn't on our blog---she changed jobs--miss her too!!

Shirley, just sent you the addresses to the Finland osprey site, and the Finney osprey site, that one will not be on till March or April when the o's return to the nest
For the first time this eagle nesting season the female adult spent the night in their nest at Norfolk Botanical Garden. Both adults were ovserved at 1:00am arriving at the nest by Rose, a devoted viewer. The male left shortly thereafter, but the female remained in the nest until about 6:35. This is usually an indication that the female is very close to laying her first egg of the breeding season.
Must go shower and get ready for the day. I now have two appointments. Need to figure out what happend to the contact lens that disappeared. Is it still in my eye? I do not know.
Morning all. Gives new meaning to the idea of "crate training", doesn't it, Mits?? Remember hearing/reading that they were getting him acclimated to it. Snow flurrying here. Cold. Nice to see sun at Finland----nest MT again. Congrats to NBG---hope they get a full clutch! And hope we do, too---but wouldn't mind if they waited until nest week----weather doesn't sound good for the end of week/weekend.
crate training was not hard, he is already accustomed to it, had to learn at an early age, so they could do blood draws and BP:), He was a fast learner
Good Morning everyone. Pretty site at the nest and neighbor called to tell me to look out the window, the sun is shining.Yep where we are we have not seen a ray of it for 2 weeks or so. Think its time to run quick errands, have a good lunch and head to the dam. Its 12 degrees but it is sunny. I can deal with that finally. Enjoy your day.

Wow, that's quick for her!

Hello everybody. Getting ready to watch Train at 11 on Lopez tonight. They got to meet Cheech and Chong! :)
Jo, our bank has frequently told us that they will not contact us for business, questions, etc.
Time to say Goodnight...
Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)
Good TV night! House, 24 and Damages. So glad those last two are back!
Goodnight to all my fine fowl friends. Hope everyone sleeps well, feels well, and that all of the little nuisances of life leave us all alone! Prayers, and God bless us all.
Wow, I can finally watch youtube videos without them stopping! Just saw the kitty one from this morning, hahaha
I missed 24...meant to watch it...
Cheech and Chong were in Baltimore on the 23rd.
Stopped by to say good night. Very busy evening grading papers.
Judie, they did well on the abstracts.
See you tomorrow.
I second all of that, Hedgie!
Good Night All
Prayers for all needs/wants and prayers of thankfulness for our day!

Hi all. Just realized today that the live camera is back. I've been watching Lily for a few days, and that got me to Facebook, which I joined. My goodness my life won't be my own for a while....
Okay, Wanda, you have great nephew Prime and I have great nephew Talon Coal. Jack asked, "is he the first child" "What is his last name?"
GrannyBLT I hope you invite all of us to be your friends on Facebook...
Night Again-
Lolly I think you get to close it down.
Be sure you check that Belle isn't in the nest before you leave. ♥
Will do, Jo!
Nite!
Cheech and Chong are on tour - it is called "Get It Legal"!
Sharon the DJ on the rock station here in Baltimore was at the C and C show and she said she wasn't impressed.
Good night all!
Have decided to call it quits for tonight. Spidey's web is all I see at the nest.
Sweet dreams!♥♥♥♥

Oooops little crisis at the office...going in early, maybe I will get off early ☺
Our nest is empty, no overnighting birds at this time.
Best wishes for a Good Day

MEGAN---Read earlier that everything is fine at your house!--Do you still have some flooding?
No flooding here, Norma.
Think they are buildng up the side of the nest there.
I can't tell them apart unless they are both together!!----Our forecast keeps calling for SNOW today!!---I'm not ready for that!!
I need to go to W/CTR this am---(for reassessment)---WHOA!---maybe they will keep me! ho!
When do you think we will see the 1st EGG???
WHOA! JO--One can still see SNOW at the FINNEY site!
Yea! Finished the grades. Everything is now submitted. I am a free woman--at least for the moment.
Doctor's appointment should not be too big of a deal. But since it is in the middle of the day, it makes it hard to go to work.
May I have the address or a link to the Finland sites?
George was very intersted in watching the kitty drinking video with me. Can't imagine what he was thinking. Also liked the surprised kitty.
good morning everyone, have a good one.
Shirley, just sent you the addresses to the Finland osprey site, and the Finney osprey site, that one will not be on till March or April when the o's return to the nest
Thanks, Mits.

bye, Norma
must have missed the eagle.
NBG nest is back online....with this report...
For the first time this eagle nesting season the female adult spent the night in their nest at Norfolk Botanical Garden. Both adults were ovserved at 1:00am arriving at the nest by Rose, a devoted viewer. The male left shortly thereafter, but the female remained in the nest until about 6:35. This is usually an indication that the female is very close to laying her first egg of the breeding season.
Wow! It is windy at the nest.
hoodie at Finland cam now
It does look cold there, though not as frigid as some other days, though I expect that the bright sunshine is not supplying much warmth.
Must go shower and get ready for the day. I now have two appointments. Need to figure out what happend to the contact lens that disappeared. Is it still in my eye? I do not know.
Thanks again for the information, Mits.
your welcome, Shirley:)
just missed an eagle again, flew out just as I got there.
Tai Shan is on both cams this a.m., he was just in the crate that will take him home to China
Morning all.
Gives new meaning to the idea of "crate training", doesn't it, Mits?? Remember hearing/reading that they were getting him acclimated to it.
Snow flurrying here. Cold.
Nice to see sun at Finland----nest MT again.
Congrats to NBG---hope they get a full clutch! And hope we do, too---but wouldn't mind if they waited until nest week----weather doesn't sound good for the end of week/weekend.
crate training was not hard, he is already accustomed to it, had to learn at an early age, so they could do blood draws and BP:), He was a fast learner
Love the sweet talk between our eagles!
Breakfast in the nest!
Lib flew in with brunch and gave it to Belle.
Rabbit maybe?
Looks like it is, or was a rabbit.
oh dear, Bugs for Breakfast:)
she seems to be craving meat, lately
I was thinking, how can you tell it was a rabbit? Then it finally was clear to me....yes, a rabbit.
Yup, that's rabbit...can see the long back legs
Forgot.....Good morning!
I loved the way Lib flew in with it, with Belle right behind him. Then he just stepped aside and said, "Here, Dear." They were talking the whole time!
Then off he flew.
Good Morning everyone. Pretty site at the nest and neighbor called to tell me to look out the window, the sun is shining.Yep where we are we have not seen a ray of it for 2 weeks or so. Think its time to run quick errands, have a good lunch and head to the dam. Its 12 degrees but it is sunny. I can deal with that finally. Enjoy your day.
Ya Think, Mits? :)
Wow, just took off, rabbit in talons...and messed up that fluff too.
smarty pants took it with her.
Shirley - I hope that contact is still not in your eye...I think you would know it!
And I forgot my Good Morning, too!
