Margy, get some sleep:)

paula eagleholic said...

Awww, bless you eagle!

floralgirl said...

I heard that sneeze

floralgirl said...

ANd again

paula eagleholic said...

And again!

Judie said...

Goodnight, everyone.

hedgie said...

She's still in the nest....just shook snow off her head.

floralgirl said...

She's talking

paula eagleholic said...

little squeaks!

Mits said...

and a little chirp-chirp, and sounds like a burp in there too

paula eagleholic said...

I can sorta see her on the feed,

hedgie said...

Looking straight at cam as if it's our fault that it's snowing!!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Wonder what that noise is? Sounds like birds chirping. It kind of looks like she is tenting a little bit now.

floralgirl said...

SHe looks spread out more, her wings out.

Mits said...

wonder if they make sounds when they are pushing an egg out....sorry but the train in the background sounds so pretty....had to say the "t" word

paula eagleholic said...

Lord I hope she's not laying an egg

paula eagleholic said...

look at her on the still cam, looks like laying or tenting

floralgirl said...

Sure seems like something was going on.

Mits said...

she seems more in a laying down position now, should be nice and toasty under her.

hedgie said...

Live cam is useless view---but still cam is pretty good!

Mits said...

yeah never thought I would say still is good:)

floralgirl said...

Who'da thunk it? Who dat?

Costume Lady said...

That's gonna cost you, Megan:)

Mema Jo said...

Still see her on the still cam
In fact see her real well

I have 4 1/2 inches out on the deck

Mits said...

yeah who dat:), the NO fans will have fun win or lose this Sunday, great bunch of fans, really have waited a long time for this

glo said...

beaking into snow a little

Costume Lady said...

I Think there is an egg in there!

hedgie said...

BTW---for those who watch Deadliest Catch: Capt. Phil Harris from the Cornelia Marie had a stroke Sunday. Apparently were in port off-loading opilios---is in hospital and doing okay, but don't know extent of damage at this point. Both sons are with him; a friend has taken the boat back out to continue season.

Mema Jo said...

I hope she doesn't turn her back side to us - Won't be able to tell she is even there........

Mits said...

well from the sounds of all that chatter, would not be surprised to see an egg in the a.m.

floralgirl said...

I agree, I think that she was laying an egg.

Mits said...

I meant to send you that email, Lynn, got the news today....

Mema Jo said...

I know it is the use of broadband

BUT clicking that back on after each 10 min 30 sec is NERVE RACKING and
it Twitches My Mind!

Mits said...

is someone doing wheelies in the parking lot?

floralgirl said...

What drives me nuts is after so many restarts, it won't start anymore and I have to refresh the page and go thru the commercial again.

Mits said...

I think we only have about 2 inches on the deck, but the snow is the pretty kind, yard looks beautiful

floralgirl said...

She just shook off again.

paula eagleholic said...

Big shakeoff

and a chirp!

Mema Jo said...

Yepper! She sneezed that egg right out

I need to invest into a new pair of speakers because with my hearing I only get the hummmmmming sound most of the time.

What was that I just heard?

glo said...

peep and big shake off I guess

floralgirl said...

We have at least 5" here, looks like we are almost out of the heavy snow.

hedgie said...

She seems alert and not interested in sleeping....

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Looks like she is standing up.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Well, my dear friends of fine feathers and fur, I am going to hit the hay. I would venture to say that we have an egg in the nest but more will be revealed for sure! Good night all!

hedgie said...

About 4" here...might be tapering off.

Mits said...

sure is noisy there tonight, that is the same sound of a vehicle I heard at 5 on Monday morning, must be trying to keep ahead of the snow

Mema Jo said...

Good night Sharon

Mits said...

Good night Sharon..

Mits said...

sounds like all of you to the north and west are getting more of this snow

Mema Jo said...

I don't know if it was a plow or a snowmobile.

Mits said...

sounds like both....

Costume Lady said...

Nite Sharon...if there is an egg, it will still be there in the morning:)

Costume Lady said...

Lynn, the work is so hard and nerve wracking bringing in those crabs...a stroke was inevitable:(

floralgirl said...

The guy smoked like a chimney too.

NatureNut said...

Sorry, had a couple phone calls after dinner & been working on eagle pics. They are so far away, they are blurry, but I might put them on anyway just to show where they were today. One was a big surprise. I couldn't see anything w/no binoculars, but zoomed as far as I could & saw something~~~~brown sticks???
Is Belle in the nest? I can only see snow on tree.

floralgirl said...

Lost the live feed.

Mema Jo said...

I saw Belle's feet - then she must have turned a little to her right..
I can't really see her white head now

Mits said...

yes, he had to be taken off the boat, like 2 yrs ago and almost died, got better and went back to drinking and smoking again, was boun d to catch up with him, the poor guy, but such a tough stressful job.

Mema Jo said...

Hopefully the snow has stopped and doesn't start up again.

Megan/Mits - what does the storm pattern look like to you..

floralgirl said...

Got the live feed started again. She is still there, her head is to the left, butt on the right.
Nite to any heading to sleep, I gotta go back outside to clean off gh for what I hope is the last time tonite. Maintenance dept. is getting grumpy.

paula eagleholic said...

Live feed is back

Yes, Loretta, belle is in the nest. She may have laid an egg

Mits said...

I still have it, but all you can see is the snow on the trunk of the tree building up..

NatureNut said...

Put on st6ill cam. Is that a bird at 12 O'clock?

Mema Jo said...

Same here Megan Live Feed Lost

No more sounds........

floralgirl said...

Radar shows us out of heavy snow, storm is almost past.

NatureNut said...

Thx Paula. You answered my ????

hedgie said...

Re: Phil. After the blood clot in his lung last year, he probably was still on anticoags, so may have been a bleed. But he sure didn't take care of himself at all; didn't listen to docs.

floralgirl said...

Refresh, Jo. My live feed came back on. I'm heading outside.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Megan

Yes NN that's her..... sorta sitting with her left side towards us. She had
just moved a moment ago. You had been able to see her white head.

hedgie said...

Good night, Sharon! Tell T-bird hi and bye, too!

Mits said...

yes, radar shows some heavy bands up near Sheps, but looks like it will be ending soon....my radar shows moderate precip heading south to north

Mits said...

got to wonder how many cartons of cigarettes do they pack on that boat???

hedgie said...

Yep, Loretta, she's at noonish position.

Mits said...

got her head in her back like she is trying to sleep

Mema Jo said...

My gut feeling is that we have an egg

Tomorrow and Thurs should be warming temps and hopefully we can get a look at the egg cup and then get the nest some new fluff in readiness for the weekend snow.

NatureNut said...

I read that NBG eagle spent 2 nights in a row in the nest, then had a 1 night break, then spent last TH night in nest & laid egg on Sunday! I can't remember if Belle does something like that, but I thought they started spending the night before laying.

paula eagleholic said...

Another shake off

NatureNut said...

I can see her head real well now on Still cam.

paula eagleholic said...

Guess we'll find out in the morning....

paula eagleholic said...

I can't see her head at all, just a dark brown blob

NatureNut said...

It changed. Never mind! ☺
Gotta watch news & see how inaccurate weather report is!

Mema Jo said...

When moose cam stopped Alfalfa was on.

Mema Jo said...

OK I am the 11pm - 1am Belle watch.
I have both cams up! If I can't see it
perhaps I can hear it.........

Mema Jo said...

Schools in the Chambersburg and Waynesboro area school districts in Pennsylvania will be operating on two-hour delays Wednesday as a result of the inclement weather, according to the school systems’ Web sites.

Frederick county MD is always the last to announce.......

Mema Jo said...

Everyone make a mental note that it would be great if we could get Buddy
to the NCTC Open House this October..
Don't lose that thought!

Mema Jo said...

It is as dark as the Ace of Spades on those cams at the nest.

hedgie said...

Our schools have already announced closure. Can hear the grands hooping from 15 miles away! LOL!

floralgirl said...

Oh no, Washington County is always the last to announce...lol...
gh swept, I'm heading to bed, another opportunity to shovel snow in the morning light, and I don't wanna miss a second of it.


Who dat?

Mema Jo said...

You sound like a Saint!

Wedding could be in May
WHoo Hoo for the pretty peonies

Good Night Megan

Mema Jo said...

I will yell (record) when and if I see
her white head raising up!

Costume Lady said...

Well, wouldn't you know it...just as things were getting good! almost a blackout:(

Jo, do you have a little different Avatar? Or maybe I have been staring at this screen too long!

paula eagleholic said...

I am heading to bed, guess we'll see what the morning light brings.

Hugs to all ♥

hedgie said...

Going to take my bath. BBL. I'll take the 1-2 shift, Jo.
Goodnight to anyone turning in! Hope we see an lovely egg in the daylight!

Lolly said...

So, you think there could possibly be an egg. I sure hope not. An egg sitting on snow....brrrrrr! Not good!

Can not make out anything on the live cam. Can see her dark body on the still cam....just barely.

glo said...

Can't see much of anything. I can hear the wind some I guess but the snow doesn't seem to be falling near as heavy as it had been. I am so very glad to see that.

Mits said...

2 months from now there will be no snow:)

Mits said...

no way of knowing Lolly, till, just speculation on some of her earlier actions and vocalization

Mits said...

till the a.m., should have been in last post

Mema Jo said...

Plowing away

Mits said...

Jo, you were lucky #500

Mema Jo said...

Wanda go and rest your eyes.
Same Sycamore Palace avatar as always

Mema Jo said...

I know Mits
I wonder if a get a prize... lol

Mits said...

think we are all out of prizes:(

sandyshaw said...

Well, I know I posted some innocuous comments earlier but now they aren't there. Anyway, it's still snowing, schools closed tomorrow, can't see a thing in the nest. Always enjoy reading this blog, loved Judie's synopsis last week and her idea of 'As the nest turns" Goodnight and blessings to Belle.

Lolly said...

Did another tray of slides tonight. Have done 8 now. Almost 1/4 through. Sitting here now in front of the fire. Wish my chair was closer...I'm cold!

Mits said...

goodnight Sandra:)

Mema Jo said...

If there are classes at NCTC - they need the roads in and about the campus cleared. Guess that is why there are working late with the plows.

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Sandra. Belle is in the nest unforeseen. lol

Mema Jo said...

Could be also for the day care facility traffic as to why they are plowing.

Mits said...

yep, that is true, plus for the employees too.

Costume Lady said...

Good Night dear Sandra...sleep well:)

Costume Lady said...

My oldest grandson is doing volunteer work at NCTC in hope that he will be hired when they have an opening. That's probably he running up and down the road plowing and plowing and plowing:):)

Mits said...

it is just pitch dark there tonight....

Bird Girl said...

Well I guess the snow has hit. Even blocking the view of the cam :(

Mema Jo said...

Wanda is it Denise's son

Mits said...

just saw a Radio Shack commercial, it has 2 eagles talking on cell phones to each other, and they start singing, really cute.

Mema Jo said...

It would be so ironical if staring at that black glob looking for a white head to arise - what if she flew up on the branch with Liberty

If I could just see a set of glowing eyes..........

Mema Jo said...

I haven't seen that one yet.. Did the eagles look real?

Mits said...

yes, they did, first time I have seen this one.

Bird Girl said...

Norfolk nest, looks like the female is asleep on the egg.

Mema Jo said...

T R A I N

Whoo Hoo I heard the choo choo whistle

Mits said...

now you have done it, she will probably wake up:), watching Montgomery county traffic cams, wonder where the plows are?

Mema Jo said...

Delphia - I have nest watch 11pm to 1am
Keeping an eye on the black blob at
the noonish position.

Hope I see her eyes soon.

Mema Jo said...

Train whistle again....
Loud and Clear......

glo said...

Is she sneezing? What is that noise?

Mema Jo said...

There has been lots of train traffic
More trains then tracks!

glo said...

can tell from still feed that she is moving aorund some . Ooops head back down as I typed this.

Mema Jo said...

I have only heard those trains. And
also the plowing of snow... haven't heard that for awhile.

Mits said...

don't think I have ever heard as many trains as today

Mema Jo said...

Glo do you agree that her head is to the left and her tail is to the left.

Sharon is going to wake up.......

glo said...

Ok well here comes another train. Guess I will say goodnight. Hard to tell at all what is really going on except she is in that nest . Good night everyone.

glo said...

Yes I do think her head is to the left

Mema Jo said...

Night Glo

Lolly said...

LOL Jo, read your comment at 12:12. Do you really think she is bent in half?

Bird Girl said...

wish we could knock that snow off from in front of our cam :(

stronghunter said...

Hello,

I got back up and came downstairs. Heard the train a few minutes ago. I don't see how you can even tell she is there.

Lolly said...

You have to look at the still cam to tell she is there.

Lolly said...

Just heard the train.

Mema Jo said...

Oh Lolly I'm not such a good midnight bird watcher...... More importantly Glo did agree with half of what I said!
lol

These trains are unnerving me I guess

stronghunter said...

I have both cams up. The still one does have a better picture, but I still can't see Belle. I tried zooming with the live cam, but I got lost in blackness.

Lolly said...

Getting tired, I bet, Jo.

stronghunter said...

It doesn't look like it is still snowing there.

Mema Jo said...

All you can really see is all the snow on the limb below the cam.

I keep hoping to see a set of
shiny eyes............

Lolly said...

She is really hard to make out, Shirley.

Lolly said...

Okay, I am going to go bathe. Will be back to tell you, good night Jo.

Mema Jo said...

Snow seems to have stopped.

I usually stay up til 1am
But I'm not usually staring at a black screen.
I think my eyes are tired more so than me.

Bird Girl said...

On our cam, live or still, the snow is really all I can make out. Is she at 11 o clock in the nest?

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Ladies!

I just got home from school. Got a LOT of transcribing done, so my eyes don't want to focus very well. Golly, is Belle in the nest?! She must feel like Frosty the Snowman, if she is! Do see a bit of a lump at 12:00 on the still cam, though. I think I'm gonna have to send Belle and Lib the nice early Valentine's Day present I got today, along with a VERY LONG extension cord! Hubby got me an electric throw! It's VERY soft and fuzzy, and extremely warm! Just what the eagles need for the nest!
Do you think there's an electric plug in the barn below? Hmmmm....

Mema Jo said...

Just lost my still feed
Going to try to get it back

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Jo~~
Oh, drat! I just lost the still cam, too!

Mema Jo said...

Delphia when Belle was visible she was at the 12ish position
She was not in the night light but just
outside of it in the nest.

Mema Jo said...

I am getting a page load error in trying to get my still cam up.....

stronghunter said...

I got the still cam back.

Mema Jo said...

Andy - I got my still cam up just now
Try yours

Ms Bookworm said...

Can't seem to get connected to the still cam now. Oh, wait--there it is! Had to refresh my live cam, too. Now have both of them--phew!

Mema Jo said...

Your heated throw sounds so comfy!

Bird Girl said...

well i'm off to bed. hope to see something tomorrow.

stronghunter said...

We have had snow, rain, sleet, freezing rain here.

Mema Jo said...

I would be happy to just see one of her feetsies.

Ms Bookworm said...

That's more like it! Do you guys think there's an egg yet? Kinda hope not--would be better, I think, if no snow underneath the egg. Nest fluff and no snow would seem warmer.

Ms Bookworm said...

Oh, Mema Jo, you would LOVE it! It heats up really quickly, and it's roasty toasty!

Mema Jo said...

Belle has been in the nest the majority of the snow storm. Her body heat may have eliminated the snow in the egg cup before and if she did lay the egg.

hedgie said...

I'm here, Jo, if you want to go ahead and call it a day. GOod night to any turning in!

Ms Bookworm said...

Boy, oh boy, you guys are sure getting some nasty weather back there tonight! How's Megan's greenhouse doing? (!) Yikes!

hedgie said...

Head was up for a few......

Mema Jo said...

I just hope you don't need it too often, Andy.

Don't know what that noise was.........

Ms Bookworm said...

Shirley,

Do you get to stay home tomorrow? Kinda hope so. Hope Judie can, too!

Mema Jo said...

12:49am Crunchy sound from Live Feed
Can't think of what it is
Nothing visible on still cam
I really hoped it was a 'shake off'

12:52am Same noise

Ms Bookworm said...

It's not as cold at night here now, Jo, but this throw is great--only takes a minute or two on 'medium' to get it really nice and warm, and then can turn it down on 'low' to maintain the coziness. Looks like poor Belle could use it right now!

hedgie said...

Think Megan has had to clean off GH 3 times, Andy. But snow has stopped now here, so probably so at her place, too.
I'll borrow your throw!!!

stronghunter said...

Yes, I stay home tomorrow. It is nice to know the night before. We get a phone call when they decide. A machine gives the information. My house phone and my cell phone ring at the same time. They call everyone--students, parents, teachers, etc.

Lolly said...

Night Ladies! Night Belle!

See you in the morning!

Andy...Fed Ex the throw.....fast! I am sure there is an outlet in one of the barns below.

(((HUGS)))) for all!

stronghunter said...

I have to go back to bed. See you later.

hedgie said...

I have serious doubts that we will be able to see an egg, if there is one, if she gets up tonight. Between darkness and snow, it's just not a good view at all!

Mema Jo said...

Hi Lynn

Night Lolly


I have both cams up/running
Can't see a thing - just assuming that
Belle is where she was before it got so ungodly dark.
Lots and Lots of trains around midnight. Earlier sounds of plow.
Last noise I couldn't id... crunchy
sound like a step on the frozen snow.

Mema Jo said...

Night Shirley - rest well.

Ms Bookworm said...

Lolly, I think Hubby ordered the throw from HSN--maybe we should order one for the nest! It will take a REALLY LONG extension cord, though!

hedgie said...

Night, Shirley and Lolly.
Andy, don't think Judie has classes tomorrow. Tues & Thurs are her normal dyas, I think.

Mema Jo said...

Hedgie I agree with you that it will be too dark until the morning light comes. I guess I was just hoping to see that she was still there.

I don't really think anymore watch needs to be done - Just need some early birds

Do what you please but I would tell you to go on to bed like I am.

Some of these sounds are weird.
You know Spooky.
With that said..........

Ms Bookworm said...

'Night, Shirley! Sleep tight!

Mema Jo said...

Headed down the hallway

Good Night All
Prayers for everyone's needs
((hugs)) ♥ ♥ ♥

Ms Bookworm said...

Shirley,
It's nice they have an automatic phone dialer to call everyone! When I was living in Utah for a couple of years as a kid, people had to do the calling--but the kids just had to listen to the radio to find out. FYI--did you know that at that time in Salt Lake City, there were only TWO television stations?!
Imagine that!

Ms Bookworm said...

G'night, Jo! If we weren't so many miles apart, I'd loan you my throw!

Ms Bookworm said...

You still there, Lynn? You could borrow it, too.

Ms Bookworm said...

Oops--have a couple of perscription meds to take. Be right back!

Ms Bookworm said...

Say, did I just hear an eagle? Have the sound on the live cam turned way up. Wonder if Lib is up on a tree branch.

hedgie said...

Jo, I'm sure she's still there---I still see the black blob! Good night, dear lady! Oh---all of the train and plow sounds are highly amplified when there's snow and heavy cloud cover!

Ms Bookworm said...

Well, Gang,
I think I'm gonna hit the dusty trail to dreamland. It was a
l-o-n-g night at school, and my eyes are tired. The night light is reflecting nicely off the snow in the nest, the porch light is automatic, and the eye scanner is, as always, enabled. Prayers said for everyone, especially our eagles, and for Megan, in the hopes she won't have to do gh maintenance again tonight. Sleep well, you guys, and I'll talk to you when it's daylight. Nighty night! Love all of you! :o]

hedgie said...

Live cam is totally black beyond the snowy limb....and it freezes every 1012 seconds......sticking to pop-up.

hedgie said...

Good night, Andy. Love u, 2!!

hedgie said...

Think I saw feetsies for a moment...and it looks like there may be something reddish in front of her. Saw movement, so maybe she was eating....just too dark to tell.

hedgie said...

This is very hard on the eyes. If only the egg cup were a little closer in!
Looks like Belle is well settled again. So....I'm going to call it a night!
Prayers and peace.

floralgirl said...

Darn...pretty sure I still see her in the nest.

NatureNut said...

Woke up to turn off 'puter & can't really see nest very well. Snow on tree branch is getting all the night light.
Night All. Hope your getting Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)

NatureNut said...

you're

magpie said...

I'm up and I need to read backwards

hello anyone on right now

magpie said...

but I do know Belle is probably in the nest and maybe there was an egg delivery before midnight...

and we're gonna split again soon

magpie said...

and I can't see anything much either except black and white and I hear the snowplowing, hello Brandon if that is YOU (Wanda's grandson)

Lynne2 said...

I'm up....

It does look like she is still there on my still cam...

Lynne2 said...
