Pretty good game going on. The Saints have a good kicker.

magpie said...

Night Bandit lurking here,
will have to see final SB score in the morning when I get up at 4,
been nice spending the week-end with you my friends...though very tough what we have experienced as well.
Going to bed with a book and some prayers

Watch for the SPLIT it's coming soon.

One more Happy Birthday Wish for Helen ♥

God Bless Us, Every One
xo ☺ ♥

stronghunter said...

Well, I just split. Goodness, gracious.

magpie said...

well we sure did...i was late in the announcement...

Mits said...

Dulles was open today, National was not....jubby going to try to go to the you know what station tomorrow...the street right behind us still has no power, been off since early yesterday, it's usually us that has no power...

Lori O. said...

Paula, thanks for the explanation -
will they come back and lay more eggs.
Ahh, I hope they don't abandon the nest.

Mags, I just meant that I had been watching for five min. and hadn't seen them. Sorry 'bout that.

floralgirl said...

The bus station?

Mits said...

yeah, yeah, that's it the bus station:)

Lori O. said...

Ya know, I'm think Tai Shan had an inside feeling about the weather and thought Thursday was the perfect day to leave!

Bless his heart - I wish he could understand what he meant to the people of this area.

Now, let's just hope that Lib & Belle decide this nest is perfect for them. :)

Lori O. said...

Megan, did your plants survive the snow?

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I know what station you are talking about! :)

floralgirl said...

Yep, Lori, gh is still standing:)
Don't worry, the eagles won't abandon the nest, they have been in and out all day. Hopefully they will lay another egg this season.

Mits said...

yes, Lori, he did just make it out, he has been in my thoughts constantly, I keep going to the cams to see him, but, then realize he is not there...zoo has been closed since Friday at 1

Mits said...

lol....Sharon, can't get anything past you:)>

Judie said...

Looks like the Saints might be marching in.

Mema Jo said...

Who Dat going to be marching?

But oh! 5 min is a long time and things can happen.

Come On Saints!

paula eagleholic said...

Margy, I think I was out taking that pic when Lynn was making the comment about the icicles!

Mits said...

and the Zoo is closed again tomorrow, with more snow coming on Tuesday into Wednesday, doubt if I will get there.

floralgirl said...

paula eagleholic said...

Mema Jo said...

Went over to place a comment on FB -
Was listening to the Lily tapes/videos
I tried to order a t-shirt but it would not accept my info... couldn't figure what I was doing wrong so I said forget it!


31-17 with a little more than 3 mins
I think the Underdogs will do it!

Judie said...

Oh when the Saints go marching in, Oh when the Saints go marching in -- Oh we'll be in football history, when the Saints go marching in.

Mema Jo said...

On FB Megan I saw all your snow pics.
I'll have to read last page to know how you did that and I'm glad it was in the driveway.

floralgirl said...

Jo, hubby did that when we were getting the driveway plowed.(friend with plow:)moving his van, and couldn't stop and went into snowbank-we had a good laugh and pushed him out.

stronghunter said...

Love your avatar, Judie!

stronghunter said...

Darth is definitely at home!

floralgirl said...

There you go! Saints

hedgie said...

Glad for the Saints....they deserve it.

Mema Jo said...

NatureNut said...

Mardi Gras has begun!!!!

Lisa said...

Hi all,

So sorry to hear the loss is official. My best wishes for a quick melt and new eggs.

A short side note -- we just posted video clips of our 2nd egg being laid. We've never captured an egg laying before on video, so I wanted to share.

Best wishes for a quick recovery for your couple!

Mema Jo said...

Look out in the street of FL tonight!

paula eagleholic said...

Thank you, Lisa.

Oh yes the Saints went marching in, Oh yes the Saints went marching in. It's glory days for New Orleans, Yes, the Saints went marching in.

Always so happy when the underdog prevails.

Quiet day tomorrow, Margy. Careful driving.

Goodnight, everyone.

Mema Jo said...

My Who Dat? Blue is a link

Mema Jo said...

Costume Lady said...

The good Capt. has had every phone in our house playing WHEN THE SAINTS COME MARCHING IN. When someone calls, it sounds like a band is in here. Enough is enough, songs got to go (tomorrow). LOL

paula eagleholic said...

Great videos at BW of the egg laying...they are on the BW youtube channel or you can download them to your puter...

normabyrd said...

WHOA!---WIN OR LOSE---GONNA MISS
WEEKEND FOOTBALL!!----need food...

Mema Jo said...

None of you will want to miss watching the 4 videos of the Laying of the 2nd egg on the BWE site. Lisa, that was fantastic viewing. Thanks!

Mema Jo said...

We have visitors in our nest

Eagle Alert

Mema Jo said...

I could cry a little cry for you!
Lib & Belle.......... :<(

Mema Jo said...

Lib, I guess, went poof. Belle, I guess, did a wiggle wiggle on the egg cup...........

Costume Lady said...

I don't think Margy told you all that she was a bit of a heroin this evening. I had been trying to call GG all day with no success. Margy was in GG's neighborhood and asked if I wanted her to check in on her (she didn't know I had been trying to call her). I told her yes, which she did...knocked on her door and rang door bells...no answer. She went back later and got the house key and let herself in. GG didn't have her hearing aids in and had forgotten that you have to push TALK when you answer the phone! I was stuck at home. Neighbor plowed driveway out Friday night and by Sat. night, another two feet of snow had fallen. His snow plow broke down and he had to get a part for it. He finally got it fixed and plowed us out. Went in to GG's and Margy was still there and a neighbor's son was plowing her out. I have no idea how Margy waded through that deep snow, but when she left the driveway was clear and her wading days were over for a while:)
WHAT A GAL SHE IS!
I forgot to say that after Margy got into the house, she called me to let me know that GG was OK.

Mema Jo said...

Already tucked her head
Sleeping now

More sun tomorrow I pray
before more snow..........

paula eagleholic said...

did ya'll notice we have an eagle in the nest?

paula eagleholic said...

You're on top of it JO. did you get your live feed working again?

glo said...

Yes Wanda I would agree. Margie is a gift for sure.

glo said...

Fats Domino How cool MeMa Jo. tyvm

glo said...

Good night everyone.

Mema Jo said...

Paula- I got it working on IE
Still want to get it on Firefox
I had to upgrade the Adobe Flash Player.
Just don't care to toggle back & forth
for my programs.

Paula both of the eagles came in a few minutes ago and then Belle settled into the 'cold snowy' egg cup. It was very sad for me to watch.

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Glo!

Mema Jo said...

Just red your comments Wanda - That is what you call an angel of of friend.
I know it makes Margy feel good to be able to do things like that for people.

paula eagleholic said...

Poor Belle, guess it's hard to turn off that maternal instinct.

paula eagleholic said...

Jo, bring up firefox and then go download the flash player...sometimes it doesn't update both browsers

PA Nana said...

The game is over. I'm glad the underdog won. Now I must find something else to do on Sundays.

Do I see an eagle in the nest? I've mourned with all of you this weekend but if Lib & Belle can go on, so can we.

The videos from Lisa were fantastic! Thanks for sharing with us.

There's a birthday today? I'm so sorry I missed the party, but happy, happy, happy!!

I almost landed on the floor! My chair just gave way and a screw came out (it's the second one). I told my guys about it before, but ...
Thanks to our youngest, he fixed it pronto for me. One good thing to have an offspring around.

Mema Jo said...

It doesn't - but I had updated firefox and then updated IE"s adobe flash player

I will download again to firefox Tomorrow.... Thanks for the suggestion

Is it always necessary to un-install before upgrading a program (Adobe Flash Player) ?

Mema Jo said...

Diann you sound like Norma - she is looking for something to do now that football is finished........

stronghunter said...

Margy is indeed an angel.

Mema Jo said...

Trying to put 3 pics into E_M but they won't upload. Guess I'll try tomorrow.

paula eagleholic said...

Jo, I don't think so. I loaded Ff on a computer at work that already had flash player. but I had to open up FF and go download it again. It didn't hurt anything.

Mema Jo said...

OK tomorrow I'll down load the Adobe Flash Player (I think it is 10) onto
Firefox.
I'll let you know how it works

I was happy to see Judy B on here last evening...... I hadn't been to the Maine Forum for some time......

Mema Jo said...

Is your work closed tomorrow?

Mema Jo said...

Shirley - you get to sleep in again tomorrow - right! Some WV schools have
already said no school Mon or Tues.

Judie said...

Blessings for Margy. What an angel she is. So glad she checked in on GG.

Goodnight, again.

PA Nana said...

... wonder if Norma plays pinocle? Used to play every Saturday with my parents. Haven't played in years but loved that game.

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Again Judie
I'm not too far behind you
I'll be going down the hallway soon

Watching some news
& weather.

hedgie said...

Margy truly is our Angel!! Wonder what GG thought when she came through the door?! I know that you were so relieved, Wanda and Gene.

Shuttle launch is still on schedule for 4:14AM. Some clouds causing concern, but they think it is clearing.

Gotta get myself to bed in order to get up again in a few hours!!

Poor Belle....wonder why she persists in roosting? Maybe she is just too tired to perch.

Good night, dear friends. Prayers and peace.

PA Nana said...

I see we have alive angel in Margy.
God bless her and the ones that do for others.

I'll goodnight now and check my email and fb.

God bless,

paula eagleholic said...

Jo, I am headed to work tomorrow.

Margy is surely an angel.

stronghunter said...

Very tired. Headed up to bed. Good night, everyone.

paula eagleholic said...

belle is awake

Mema Jo said...

She has tucked her head again.

paula eagleholic said...

She yawned and preened a feather or two, she is standing, then tucked her head in

paula eagleholic said...

Hope she's not gonna lay egg #3 tonight

paula eagleholic said...

She's awake again, picking at the leaves in the bowl

Mits said...

good night everyone, thanks for all the birthday emails, posts here and on FB...even got wishes from Big Rig Steve viewers, plus snail mail cards..thanks again. good night.

paula eagleholic said...

Heading to bed...see ya'll tomorrow

Hope the shuttle takes off for those getting up early to see it!

Hugs to all ♥

NatureNut said...

Was also just watching Lisa's videos & reading about placing pine on mate's back!
And why is someone in the snowy nest now? Hope another egg isn't imminent....

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Helen
Good Night Paula

Hi NN Don't know what to expect from our Eagles.......

Mema Jo said...

Time to head down the hallway
Tomorrow is another new day...

Good Night & Prayers for all

Mema Jo said...

Happy 46th Anniversary to

Ceil and Jim. May there be many more

years for you to share together

Costume Lady said...

This has been a looong day...time for me to end it.

GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS FOR ALL

Ms Bookworm said...

Good (Very Late!) Evening, Everyone!

First of all, a rather tardy HAPPY BIRTHDAY wish for Helen! Hope your day was very special!
...and...
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, Ceil & Jim! Hope you have many, many more!

How about those SAINTS?! Whoo Hoo!!!
Let's hear it for the underdogs!

Had a very busy day today, doing homework, taking care of the bulldogs, and watching the Saints make history!

Feel just awful for Belle & Lib, but I am in awe of their perserverance, and hope they are able to start over. Just especially glad that both of THEM are OK!

A HUGE thank you to Margy for checking on GG-- you are indeed an angel! SO happy she was OK!

Am really tired, so going to give up for the night. Prayers being said for everyone, for health, warmth, and safety. Sleep tight, and will talk to you tomorrow when it's daylight. Love you guys!
Oh--BTW, the picture on the live cam is really sharp tonight! Awesome! Sleep well, Belle, and Lib, too! :o]

Lolly said...

Who Dat?!!!! Who Dat?!!!!!

Oh, when the Saints ...go marching in!!!!

Fun evening over in Dallas. Lots of young folks there, lots of children, it was very enjoyable. Did not get to see a whole lot of the game, very few of the commercials, no half time...but fun. Helped with the clean up and then we came home. Best thing was just seeing Michael...it had been over a month!

Eagle in the nest..head tucked under a wing.

I just have to say that Margy is a dear....bless you Margy for taking care of GG. Just want you to know though, Wanda, any of us, if we lived close enough, would be there in an instant to help your Mother. I think she is our adopted Momma!

I have had a long day and I am exhausted. Heading to bed. Nite all!

Who Dat???!!!!!!!!!!





























!

sandyshaw said...

We're so excited! We had oysters wrapped in bacon and country ham biscuits in honor of the Saints, and we're so glad that they won! As for Margy, she is obviously an eagle spirit!..Bless her. Tom was a bit concerned because our phone is out, but i said we'll just wave an SOS flag out the back door and eagle people and neighbors will notice.

Lolly said...

Just have to say it...Andy got WAX!!!!!!!! hee hee

Lori O. said...

1:30AM Someone is one the nest, facing the rear so you can hardly see the white of their head. What a beautiful sight.

Just tucked her head between her wings and resting.

Lolly said...

Lore,why are you up? It is late, girl!

Lori O. said...

Goor Morning Lolly Miss Sunshine and Sandy.

Lori O. said...

I'm up getting ready to go to work!

Lolly said...

Sorry....meant Lori!

Heading to bed...very tired.

Lolly said...

Lori, what do you do?

sandyshaw said...

1:45 and Belle(?) is sleeping peacefully. I was so afraid that they would abandon the nest, but they are stayers. Good night all.

Lori O. said...

G'Night you two. Sweet dreams.

hedgie said...

Up and watching....launch on schedule and bird in our nest.
Margy, are you up?

Happy Anniversary, Ceil&Jim!

hedgie said...

The blog count is all screwed up again. Reading 312, but it is much higher than that....blogger cop must have had too much superbowl party!

hedgie said...

Deer out back---hope they leave soon so light goes out...poor things are having a rough time wading through the snow :(

magpie said...

First official order of business:

Happy Anniversary, Dear Ceil and Jimmy xoxo ☺ ♥

magpie said...

Also; CHECK THE NEST....I THINK, DO I POSSIBLY SEE AN EGG ???

GOD MORNING HEDGIE !

hedgie said...

10 mins. to launch,,,,all systems go!

magpie said...

Belle is standing in the nest I think, and there is a little white thing but not really underneath her...

So someone else, esp with live feed, can you look at it ?

She seems to be looking down at the nest cup

going to NASA site next...

magpie said...

regarding the nest:

It could just be little small snowball size things.....


live feed is not opening for me


Going to watch the Shuttle Launch now..

hedgie said...

Oh, beautiful sight! They wouldn't have to pay me one red cent to be on board that sucker!!!

magpie said...

She's off : Endeavor !

Prayers for a safe journey

magpie said...

Special to share this with you Lynn ♥ xoxo

magpie said...

I'll listen for 900 mi down range and run out and look Hedgie....

magpie said...

stood outside in thigh-high snow in the back yard, couldn't see the Shuttle Lynn..
lots of nice stars and the Moon is beautiful...

hedgie said...

Well, I couldn't see it.....maybe too many low clouds, or maybe moonlight just a bit too bright in that direction....boo! Anybody else?

hedgie said...

Godspeed, Endeavour!!

magpie said...

By the Way -
The telephone area code for where the Shuttle is located:

3-2-1

magpie said...

going to go for live nest feed and post a few pictures on E-M album if I can...

hedgie said...

Shall we call them, MArgy??

hedgie said...

Hope your day at work is a good one, Margy.
I'M going back to bed! Talk to you this evening.
Oh--I didn't see what you thought was an egg, but she was sitting when I looked...but nest was empty when I first got on.
Bye!

magpie said...

I managed to get a few nest pictures on, Belle seems to be resting....sorry to sound the alert if it is a false alarm, just surprised me to see her standing over the nest cup, could not get live feed so couldn't tell anymore than what I could see on still cam

magpie said...

Regarding my visit to GG... thank you for all your nice words on that...Wanda and I discussed it carefully over the phone, I had a plan for going in unannounced, and it worked out okay, yes, a careful move. I am blessed to be have been able to be of service, kind of like my church attendance for the day.
A lovely family.....and I am proud to be a part of it... ♥

especially glad too that all was well, and that Gene and Wanda could make it there too

Time to get ready to head out for work, see you all much much later.

Glad all seemed to have enjoyed their evenings, nice report Lolly

See everyone much later on, and congratulations again to the Riffe family for the new little babies on the planet ☺ ♥ xo

movin said...

Wow, I can't believe Belle is on that snowy-icy nest cup.

She was not on there late in the evening (Pacific time), and I assumed they wouldn't proceed until they at least have the nest cup back in shape.

At least my live feed is working again after only the second try, and both cams have very good pictures for late night.


[:~D]

Jim

movin said...

I just remembered that there is supposed to be more snow back there today.

Maybe Lib/Belle are trying to protect the cup from more damage, since Belle probably has at least one egg scheduled yet.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Well, GoodNighT/
Good morning,
EveryonE

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


[:~D]

Jim

glo said...
