WHOA WE SPLIT
I didn't feel a thing.......
Hmm, think she's telling Lib it's his turn!
Will one of you please sit on that egg before it freezes?!
Now, I must go ....
OH, I thought I timed out...feed is back
Is the sun out at the nest? I'm a bit concerned that the egg is still uncovered!
I sure hope they don't let any stick fall into the egg cup.......
Incidentally - the high walls at the nest surely did keep a lot of the snow out of there.
I have lost the live feed. Has anyone else?
Or is that Lib in the back...I'm not sure..no he is up front...lite shoulders..and off he went to the right
Help! An abandoned egg!!! Hey, guys, you have an egg!!!
Probably have to refresh the page, Candy.
Oh, see feetsies at the top.
Candy - close it down and it will come back up for you.
I guess Mits is at or going to the NZ
I know she'll blow our kisses to Tai
before her shift is over.... :<)
Hi Paula, Lolly and Pa Nana. I had to start the thing all over and have live feed again.
Dig that cup as deep as you can!
Lolly, I am with a different Kindergarten teacher this year and just love her. As a matter of fact, I just signed up to do another year.
It will be a little sad for Mits today when she has to leave. She has watched the pandas so long. But now she has a new egg to come home to.
You Go Candy Gal!
So happy this year is good!
Did Josh get home recently?
LOL I missed the spit too. Missed some comments as well. Had to go back.
Good, back on the egg. Who's on first???
Ahh--finally, a 'wiggle'! Looks like the egg will stay warm now. What a relief! Dare I finally leave and do a bit of housework?...
Boy, they are still working on their nest
Belle is surely a tight fit in the egg cup. But thank goodness she looks like she is going lower and lower and will be able to protect the egg and perchance lay another on come Saturday.
Oh, Candy! Good for you! Never had an assistant or an aide, what I would have given to have you!
So, good that you have a great teacher this year.
Tuesday night the first egg, you think she will go as long as to Saturday, not Friday???
Yes, JO, Josh was just home for about a week. Left early to get ahead of the last storm we got here. He is dong good, finally mingling in with the 82nd Airborne that just came back from Afghanestan and now the hard core training begins again. He is hoping to go to Officer Training School, but doesn't know when yet. He doesn't think he'll be able to get home again now until the summer sometime. Marriage over; just a matter of time for the divorce to get processed. He has been hurt, but will get over it. Thanks for asking.
I am wondering if Outdoor could lighten the view from their cam?
We know from the Still cam it isn't that dark at the nest........
Me too, Jo, I just saw him coming , like to watch them fly in.
Looks like they're building a bit of a wall around the egg cup. Good idea, since that will help keep snow, rain, etc. off the egg(s), and help hold in the heat.
I was hoping for Friday LOLLY.
Is the nest supposed to get that big storm that is coming again?
I think I am going to try to get something accomplished around here. lol Like download another book to my Kindle. Rain has started here, rain all day tomorrow, high in the upper 30's. Think more reading material is in order.
BBL
Posted some pics. If someone wants to put them on the Momster Blog, please do. I haven't mastered that yet.
Candy, that's great that you like your job SO much! Fantastic! The new teacher, and the kids, are very fortunate to have you! Way to go!
MEGAN, it is so good to hear you again. All I can think of is your beautiful flowers and wishing that spring would hurry up and come sooooooon. :)
Yes, I think that prediction was for the nest area. Yuk! That is depressing!
Candy, glad to hear that Josh is doing well, too. Went through a real rough patch--glad to hear it's getting better!
Yes, we are going to get have a major storm here and at the nest. That forecast applies to this area, unfortunately. Just got back from the grocery store and getting bird seed.
Candy, I have little seedlings growing in here right now under grow lights.
Let's all go for FRIDAY.
My thinking was a day off - it is usually 3 days...... I'm ok now 'cause I know it is only WED
Thanks Lynne for the reminder you sent to me New date is March 3rd.
I was with the other teacher for 14 years, and needed a change. Sometimes I think I was doing more of her work than she was. This new teacher has it all together and is very structured and coordinated. She is fun and has a different way of teaching. I am learning new things from her too, and I don't spend all night at school, so to speak.
You can see how the snow has melted if you look at the times on the pictures.
I'm hoping she lays another egg Thurs or Friday , before the snow starts. If we get the amounts they are predicting, this storm will be a real challenge to the eagles.
Oh MEGAN that is super news. Your crop is started.
Hey you people in Shepherdstown, get Steve up there and put a tent over the nest. LOL, then we can all rest peacefully.
Candy - I am as happy for Josh as I am for you! His new directive seems to have taken a load from your shoulders.
I can't wait to see Lib down down in the egg cup. He just might be able to get his beak out.........
Sorry to hear about the marriage, Candy, but glad it's finalized, and Josh can get on with his life.
Thanks you all. There were a lot of ups and downs and I thank you for still being here for me when I get back on here. I missed being on here, but didn't have much to talk about that was good news and was in such a funk over it all. I buried myself in playing Facebook games to occupy my mind.
I would expect next egg to be laid Thurs. or Fri.
Jo, what is March 3rd??
Candy, so glad that you are enjoying your year so much. But still surprised that you are going for another!!! We want you to be free as a bird to come visit us! Josh will be so much better off once the dust settles, so to speak. Finality will take the real burden off.
My hubby and son are on the kitchen floor fixing a leak that just started. Thank goodness we found it just after it started.... Just a tiny pin hole in the elbow pipe. Had to go buy parts to fix it. I hope they are almost finished so that I can still have my evening with Alexis...... I have to hear her Disney stories.
3/3/10 My next hair cut! Lynne is so nice to me that she sends me a reminder. You know how us Momsters forget the real date.
Deb was my favorite 'forgetter'!
And Lynn maybe you should get Lynne to send you one! lol
Egg Roll
LYNN, that is the only drawback to still working for me. I want to come back up there so much, and see all of you and the nest. Time will tell.
Just got the call---Culpeper Schools on a 2-hour delay tomorrow. They will change this if the roads do not improve as anticipated.
What address do we use for OUTDOOR.com?
The Live feed really needs to be lighter. When it is wet it is extra
dark.
JO you sure were lucky to find it just as the leak started. If it had gotten too bad, you might have been able to ice skate in your kitchen. :)
Candy Just set your mind to it. We always do a Saturday just so you can come on up. You still bake brownies?
Oh my Shirley - is this weather ever spoiling your sleeping habits. George cannot understand, I'm sure.
Wow! They upped the temp to 38° for the nest........
JO, I will forward to you email from outdoor channel...do you want me to send along some pics showing the difference too?
That would be great Paula
If you agree with what I am saying - you really could just send it all to
Outdoor - Copy me if you wish.
Thanks so much!
So we have an egg. Congratulation to Lib and Belle. Just hope and pray it makes it through all the snow.
Paula, there is a pretty big difference in the pictures right now.
You really can't see much but the eagle's head in the live shot.
Hi Red! Yes, we have an egg. Hoping our tough eagles can handle the weather.
We've had some good melting today. Temp made it up to 39. Imagine that was most of the noise at the nest, since wind has been fairly minimal.
Jo, email on its way...yahoo was being a boob.
Hey Jo, I will resend to them as well...just saw your message!
And as soon as I said that, the wind has started to pick up!
That nest has to be really wet.
Jo, done!
Let's see what they say!
It's probably drying out pretty good, actually. All the roads here are dry.
Hey, Red!!! Glad you checked in! Our beauties have done it again!!
Sad news from New England....a 27 y.o. gave birth to triplets at home and she and they all died. Her mother found them---never knew she was pregnant.
Hi Red, see you made it off Facebook to this wonderful happening too. Good to see you.
Yes JO, I still make the brownies. I just took some in to school today for dessert for our salad bar. I didn't bring any home>:( All gone.
Have to get something for dinner, so had better check out for now. BB
Calling for sprinkles tonight! Hope it doesn't ice things up.
Thanks Paula - Hopefully it will just be an adjustment to their equipment.
Hello Red! How's the Mafia doing?
Good to see you and we are all praying right along with you about the egg and the storm..........
Keep in touch
Tai report coming up on Ch. 9!
Egg Roll
Our eagle is digging deeper - must have heard the weather report!
LOL, Jo----I got my hair apptmt. date messed up a day early!! Remember??
Lynne, any difference today in Daisy's behavior? Hope meds have kicked in.
Oh, BTW, Lynne, my vet has me using Tucks pads to clean off Cinnamon twice a day to hopefully prevent any more UTI's.
I was remembering that Lynn
So do tell Lynne your new date if you have one so she can remind you too.
Just peeking in. Have been reading. It is fun. I shop on line, then download a sample of a book. Then if I like it, I push buy it, and in seconds, yes, seconds, it is downloaded. They have my account and info. That easy. Ahhhh, technology!!
Well, they certainly know what to do during the snow. Rather amazing, the instinct they have!
OK! Paula sent email about lightening the Live Feed and already a reply has come to us:
Hi again Paula
No, sorry. The live cam that NCTC put in the week before we went live and before the eagles returned was put in in a rush, and they didn’t have time to optimize it before the eagles returned. The old camera died. They said that they can’t touch that live camera until Spring or else it would frighten the eagles and may cause them to not come back to this nest. Sorry.
Arnel
Outdoor Channel
So IT Is What It Is
Time for me to head out to eat with Hubby, Alexis and her dad.
BBL
Whoopee! You mean we can get an appointment reminder on this blog.....for free! Can not beat a deal like that!!! lol
** It is better then when they wake you up with a phone call early in the morning the day before!!! lol
LIb just arrived with a couple of nice long sticks
Mama is gonna take a break
Where else can you get adult eagle entertainment, friendship, love, hugs, prayers, laughs, concern, sympathy, seeds, (hugs Wanda), medical advise, prodding, panda updates, weather updates, and now appointment reminders. Unbelievable!
Oh, hi, Lib!
At least we got a quick answer.
Big wing stretch, about smacked Lib
evening all! whew, tired of shoveling! Guess I better get over that for the Great Superbowl Weekend Storm of 2010 coming up!
Daisy is about the same today. Still kind of lethargic. Good idea about the tucks!
I've got to go fix dinner, BBL
This is a heck of a blog Lolly! I'm so happy to be a part of it!
Forgot to mention...birthday wishes, anniversary wishes, eagle education, .....the list goes on and on. Oh, and momsters actually look at your grandchildren's pictures and listen to you brag. lol
Whoops! An abandoned egg again!
WHAT was that?
I caught you! I haven't left yet!
Get back on that egg cup!
Before I go, here is a pretty neat website to see what the #1 song was on the day you were born!
My is "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"
Birthday #1 Song
Tai is going to be one the ABC Baltimore station in a few minutes (I think a few) channel 2
Lynne, are you bragging that you are so young?☺
Mine is Paper Doll by the Mills Bros.
I got a very nice reply from Outdoor Channel about the live feed picture...
Hi again
Paula
No, sorry. The live cam that NCTC put in the week before we
went live and before the eagles returned was put in in a
rush, and they didn’t have time to optimize it before
the eagles returned. The old camera died. They said that
they can’t touch that live camera until Spring or else
it would frighten the eagles and may cause them to not come
back to this nest. Sorry.
Arnel
Outdoor Channel
I am guessing that all the adjustments on the cam must be manually done, and NCTC really just wanted to get up the tree, get the cam working, and get outta there, since they were so close to egg laying doing the replacement. So they really didn't have time to test for an optimum picture.
I thanked Arnel and told him I understand, that they are just the host, and they were doing a great job.
Turned live feed on and think I just missed the switch
LOL, I see Jo posted the same response!
LOLLY - I think you hit this place right on the nose!
Do not know if there was a switch or not. Both left the nestk, first Belle and then Lib. lol Do not know who returned.
That was a very quick, polite response, Paula. Neat people there!
I forgot about this eagle cam!
Carolina Raptor Center
Interesting, the live feed has a better picture right now than the still cam. Snow just does not work with the live feed.
Oh, wow, Paula. It says she has three eggs! I had forgotten about her as well.
I LOVE the Mills Brothers!!
Can't wait to see what everyone else is! We can make our own Momster CD!
Does anyone think I have too much time on my hands?
Last year they had 3 eggs that didn't hatch. She has 3 again this year. This is a captive bald eagle pair at the Carolina Raptor Center
I did not read when she laid the eggs. We need to know when they will possibly be hatching,.
Back to my book. Jack is on a teleconference..third meeting today.
I did that song website before..can't remember the song...let me check
Blue Moon by the Marcels...never heard of it, must be why I don't remember it!
Heading home, cu later!
Well actually, just checked it out...I have heard it before....just never knew the title!
Jan 5th, Lolly, so it should be soon...this is week 4.
No sprinkles here....snow flurries. Just great...NOT.
My song was Riders in the Sky, by Vaughan Monroe. Never heard of the singer until I did this once before, and Mom remembered him. I remember the song itself done by a western group whose name now escapes me.
Lynne, you are such a baby! I was already a teenager when The Lion Sleeps Tonight came out!
Cam is what it is....sure better than nuttin', honey.
Does the Carolina nest not have infrared? He keeps refreshing but is just dark blue/black.
BTW----no acknowledgement from Steve of my email picture....and he didn't put it up on the blog page. Knew I was wasting my time.
Ghost Riders in the Sky was done in the 70s or 80s by the Outlaws, Johnny, Waylon, Willie and Kris Kristopherson.
OH PAULA....you MUST remember Blue Moon...wait I'll sing for you!
Hi, Gang!
I'm back just for a bit--Hubby just got home from work, so can't stay long. Got lotsa housework done.
My Birthday song is 'Till the End of Time' by Perry Como. Pretty cool website!
Too bad they can't fix the live cam picture, but better what's there than nuthin'! Sure is wonderful that the still cam is so clear!
Well, gotta run. Will check back later, after dinner. Have a good evening! :o]
Nope, not Ghost Riders....just Riders!
I see Belle is already catching some ZZZ's, bless her heart!
I know how Belle feels. I think we have all been that tired.
Had to add a picture of tired Belle to my blog. I have been there so many times.
What is the link to the birthday song thing?
Oh Hedgie don't feel badly about no response. Let it roll and be happy with the responses to so many things that you do get. It is what it is and sometimes we just never know why. Life is too short though to waste our time. Invest it wisely Which of course I know you already do. I love the photo. One of the best I have ever seen from a webcam. You did good. very good.
All this talk about chili and cornbread....our family likes corn muffins, so I am making those tonight. My recipe card is so old and faded and dripped upon, I'd better rewrite it soon! Going to have the muffins with leftover MD crab soup I pulled out of the freezer the other night...tomorrow night gonna pull out the chili!
I want to go give Belle a hg good night. I guess she wouldn't appreciate it though. Bless her heart. I was ogne most of today. I hope she has had a good meal.
Lynne posted the birthday song link at 5:42
Glo, Lib has fed her twice, if I'm not mistaken
Uh, I have a video...gimme a minute!
Crap, it didn't take the first one....too long, will have to bring it home to edit it
Here's the second one, tho.
changing of the guard
First one had a nice fly in by Lib from the left side of the nest. You could see him down by the barn and he swooped up.
How do you take a picture with is live cam? If I right click it, there is no save?
Lynn, Vaughan Monroe
Riders in the sky
Johnny and Wille, touring with Waylon and Kris as the Highwaymen, NOT the Outlaws as I said earlier. I LOVE this song no matter who sings!
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THNIae_q-dg>Highwaymen</a>
trying again, duh
Highwaymen version
Shirley, the link- let me know your song!
<a href="http://www.joshhosler.biz/NumberOneinhistory/03/0311.htm>Birthday Song</a>
oh for Pete's sake....trying again
Birthday Song Link
Thanks Paula I always have that darn is someone hungry on my mind. Glad to know Belle has had food :-)
I'm going to make a CD...I think I can anyw!ay
I think we have a DJ on our blog.
I am Somewhere Over the Rainbow
Lynn, I'm sorry you got no word about your picture. It's so good! Going in the Momster's 2011 calendar for sure!
Some had posted a really nice titmouse picture recently...maybe from Conowingo? I want to use that one maybe too!
Awww, Jo, when I was little that song used to make me cry, happy tears! It's so pretty!
We are going to have quite a good CD!
Lynn, we love it and we are excellent judges of photography.
I put one family portrait of our eagles on my blog that I think is pretty good, but yours is much better because they are looking at the egg.
Belle is still crashed in the nest.
Belle is really conked out! Rough
night last night.
Lolly has the instructions for capturing from the live feed...something like print screen and paste into paint programs
Oh, that woke her up! A coyote?
Hey Lynee I had the titmouse pic
man, i could just eat muffins for dinner, the heck with the soup
To capture a picture from the live screen Press Prnt Scrn. (Upper right hand area of keyboard) I also have to press shift. Think this varies. Go to Paint and paste the picture, then you can crop and save.
Oh, I tried a new recipe...Bacon, Cheddar and Chive Bisquits. Oh, yummy! Jack LOVED them. You could easily make a meal of just them. However, woe is me, I am trying to get rid of the few pounds I gained over the Holidays.
OK thanks Paula! It's good!
Shirley, I really like the bottom picture you got, like they are looking around for somepmr to admire their achievement!
Okay, my song should please some people on here--"Chattanooga Choo Choo" by Glenn Miller.
Shirley, back to school tomorrow?
Well, you can sleep and warm the egg at the same time.
Back to school two hours late. Not bad.
You'll leave the Pennsylvania Station ‘bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore!
Did someone mention a TRAIN???
My birth year song. "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon & Garfunkel
Think I am going back to my reading. May watch AI at 8.
Go back to sleep Belle! We are watching out for you!
Phyrfly, just took a peek at your pictures. Fantastic! Love your blog. Could you follow my instructions on getting a pic from the live feed?
I hope Lib is watching out for her, too. He might be more effective.
Yeah--a choo-choo TRAIN.
Shhhhh, Lynne! You will set off you know who!
Alexis has gone home now
All is quiet once again
No more spongebob blaring from TV
lol
Shirley, you too? Goodness girls, you are just asking for it. She who will not be mentioned will be on here shouting t..., t....., t....!!!
Mrs Robinson, another good one!
Okay I finished the last of the 824 comments from the old thread, haven't even started on these yet.
Have enjoyed the pictures and comments from THAT thread and emails...
Lovely Mommy in the nest....
Special thanks to Hedgie for sending me the news this morning ☺
Good Evening to Everyone...xo
Oh oh---did I hear a choo-choo TRAIN???
Lynne, didn't realize that they were one and the same songs. Thanks for clarifying.
Thanks for your support----I wasn't fishing for compliments, or anything. It's just my issue with Steve. He just always ignores my messages for some reason. Guess I'm a persona non grata.
Ahh, Jo, isn't it fun? And, our little ones will be growing up so fast!
MArgy is home, has seen pic, and is trying to catch up. Sure she'll be here soon!
Oh Yay, the whole staff at 9-1-1 is on alert for this week-end IF the 12 to 24 inches of snow arrives...
:(
after 12 hours at the office I can't sit still right now be back later to catch up
I just heard a TRAIN outside walking Daisy!
Hi Margy! Busy day?
I had Sponge Bob this morning, Jo.
Did you take the cream cheese and jelly?
Something has awakened our eagle.
There that is what I was trying to see last night in the pitch dark - The
glowing eye!
Belle is up now.
You guys are really trying to stir you know who up!!!!
Phyrfly---another baby!! Your song was another one from my high teen years!
eagle up and listening
Jo, I heard a coyote and so did Belle. She jerked her head up fast.
Thanks Lolly, I will try and get a pic or two of the nest tomorrow, I would love to get two eggs in the nest maybe :)
I really do love that song Lynn, there was a band called the Outlaws who ALSO did a pretty good rock rendition. It's a classic for sure!
Thanks Hedgie, I needed to hear that :)
Lolly those biscuits sound yummy
OMG...they are yummy. Laurel is going to make them to take to school on Friday. They are having a soup day. She thought she would put out something to go with the other teachers soups. The recipe makes 12 large bisquits she is going to make 2 dozen smaller. The recipe suggests using them for sandwiches. Yes, they say make em big! It is a drop bisquit.
I'll send you the recipe. I had to scan it to send it to Laurel.
OK, I said I was going to read and then never left. Let me try this again.
BBIALW
Lolly, send me the recipe, too, please!!
Hey, Jo---don't forget that we have DJ Lori, too!! And, of course, we all know that Megan was or will be one in another life!
Snow shortage in Vancouver for Olympics----let's steer this weekend sucker their way!
I know isn't that a hoot about Vancouver! It sure has been a strange winter everywhere!
Wow did you really hear a coyote?
Never heard one, guess I shoulda had live cam up...
Cream cheese and jelly and crackers was awesome! Perfect crackers and I have enough for a second round of it....
Making Waldorf salad to take in tomorrow.
Okay back to the comments...
9:00 New Criminal Minds
Man oh Man we are going to split again soon...
Margy you better hurry up and read the comments before we do 5 more on here
Yeah, hurry Margy....
Faster Margy
Megan I hope you rewarded your maintenance helper well for this last snow. BECAUSE there is another big one coming at your gh again and you'll really need a willing worker....
Headed in to the TV
