Oh, on the 4 wheeler story...a gal here at work heard from her son who knows the parents....that the key was left in the 4 wheeler, and the boy got on it and road it without the parents knowledge...such a tragedy.
Just curious -- guess I missed something that annoyed Paula and Jo -- did someone try to rename Palmer? Well, whoever is doing whatever, I know a place where a body can be hidden in a washer under a snow bank near a bear cave.
So sorry about the little dolphin ... I had read about them and was aware that this could happen but I was so hoping he would make it and that I would get a chance to see him one day.
Awesome video Paula thank you so much for making it and sharing it. My feed is not working at all like that. I have had it up much of the day but well its not like that at all. Yours is very enjoyable. Thanks again.
I have been watching Momma PA falcon all day, she has mostly been off the egg, now is lying on it finally, so maybe another one soon, she laid the 1st one this past Saturday at 8:15 a.m.
Yes Dana I have tried both firefox and iE 8. I get herky jerky feed but it is sort of live with sound LOL. Just not at all smooth for any length of time as in even a few secs :-(. Thats fine I can enjoy Paula's videos. I keep the still on my laptop and then when it looks like i need to head to the bigger desktop in the bedroom where i have the live feed I go in there to try to watch some of the happenings.
Glo hope you don't mind but I put your picture of "by Glo First Glimpse of Little Palmer". In the Eaglet Momster photo group for 3/1 to 3/31. I'm not taking credit for the picture just wanted to get that first look at him in the album. Hope it is OK.
I think Noah was just getting dinner, too. FB page says he will go to new home at end of month, so I'm hoping that's next Weds instead of this Friday, which is 6 weeks. Hope they post what his actual last day will be.
I hadn't checked on him since last week, his feathers are growing in fast!
Glo, sorry you can't get a decent live feed. Have you tried turning off hardware acceleration on flash player...right click on live feed, go to settings, click on the monitor icon, uncheck enable hardware acceleration.
Mits, Noah IS getting big!!! Something said recently about it being almost time for him to leave....???? Are they going to move him someplace else? Why?
Spring Update #1 - March 22, 2010 On Sunday, March 21, 2010, at about 4 PM the eaglet hatched out. This is great news since this is the one egg out of four that made it this year, and it was right on time.
There will be lots of action now with the new eaglet. Plenty of food will be brought into the nest, and there will be ample time to watch this now tiny eagle grow.
Yes Paula I just checked. I thought I had turned it off. I have it off. Thanks. I can hear the peepers right now well off and on LOL. Its Ok for me. I enjoy whatever I can get. I am thrilled to see our pair and their little one :-).
Thank you Paula for all your efforts with Outdoor Channel and NCTC on getting things up and running.... ...and thanks to NCTC and Outdoor Channel folks too ☺
I am back. Spent a couple of hours working in the yard. Sun felt soooo good!
Talked with Laurel. She got a virus on her school computer. Surprising since they have LOTS of safe guards. The technicians said the google bar is a great way to get viruses. Lovely! Anyway she had porn sights popping up on her computer within sight of students. She turned it off fast! Called for help, whispered "I have naked ladies". lol They got there FAST! It had infected everything. They had to wipe her computer clean.
PaulaGuess what Hardware acceleration wasn't turned off on my desktop. I have just turned it off. I would so love if it will run a little smoother for me. My desktop is older than my laptop but hopefully that will help out. Thanks again.
btw: when James was watching the cam and sitting with me while I was reading comments yesterday before Palmer hatched...he got a big kick out of the monikers and avatars....asking who is this one and that one...someday he will meet more of you ! ☺
Hi all Just poped in for a min. I think you well fine that eggshell is a hole egg. She dug it up and rolled it next to chick after it hatched. When you stop and think why would she keep it there. Chick could get hurt on part of a shell. This needs checked into.
Hello everybody! I have been reading the messages. Saw little Palmer get fed and took a picture. The first time I have heard the little chirps. Precious!!
Hello everyone. My apologies for interrupting but wanted to say how excited I am to see little Palmer. My goose bumps have goose bumps and I thank God for His marvelous wonders and works.
What a rough winter Belle and Lib had and it has certainly paid off with a little peeper. WOW!
Proud of the Momsters and the name Palmer is just perfect.
I was wondering about the aerial wing lift Belle did yesterday. I saw it but did not realize Palmer hatched. Was that lift significant? Do they always do that?
BEagle - have you watched the videos Paula has on her blog - just click on her name and the the blog of eaglet momsters. I am not certain what you saw with the Wing Lift and I'm sure Palmer has been down in that egg cup since hatching. Belle was stretching out big time after being over the egg well for so long. Try to tell me what you think you saw. I could be wrong.
Man Crunch! Guess the only thing we can do is really keep a watch - I don't think it will be a hatch - I guess somewhere in that nest other eggs are dug in from the first 3 she laid. Well one hatched and that is Palmer and you're saying one was dug up and so there are 2 more somewhere.
I think all we can do is watch very very carefully and try to get a pic of it. Wow! Crunch! Glad you told us what you saw.
Crunch I know we will all be taking an extra careful look and one of us will holler when we get a picture and try to confirm it isn't the half shell! Thanks again! Stick with us, Guy!
Hi ya', Crunch Bob. How are y'all doing?? Regardless of what the old egg situation is, there's nothing that can be done about it......no going near the nest from here on out til after fledge!
Well, she backed off the egg cup and stretched her wings a little. Then she backed up more...closer to the camera, spread her wings and came off the nest a little. She looked like she would fly away but just dropped back down on the nest and went over to the egg cup.
I did check the Momsters and it was on there but I didn't check the time.
I'll have to agree with what you say about Belle and the half egg shell not being left in the egg cup. Like I said, Palmer was egg #4. Somewhere in the nest are 3 others and you have sighted one in the egg cup.
Any suggestions how to find out, Crunch other then wait it out.
BEagle all I can think of is that little Palmer just better not hang onto her Mom or Dad's wings when they stretch or else Palmer is going over the edge of the nest! And that would just break tooooooooo many hearts!
I am just glad Palmer is safe and sound down in that deep egg well! Don't worry another minute about it BEagle! ((hugs))
OK. She's checking out her brood now. What a sight!
Maybe the wing lift was her example of what she expects Palmer to do eventually. (Actually she looked like she was jumping for joy that she pulled Palmer through all the snow and cold!)
Thanks for all the nesting news Jo, and others on here today also ... been making some spot checks of a few here and there...more to watch for in the morning (or maybe overnight at EENet) What a great time of year for Birds ! And the people watching them ! ☺
I don't even know my May and June schedules so I'll go with the flow and see what I can work out regarding a Nest Visit same old, same old
Enjoying Dancing with the Stars too. Paula Feed still stalls out every couple of seconds. Tomorrow when there is feedings and peepings etc I might be able to tell if there has been any improvement. There might be a little but well. MTBR
Evening Everyone! Went to Red Lobster to celebrate baby Palmer & late B'Day dinner!! YUM YUM!!!! Got lots of leftovers. Bet birds would like it. Paula, your video is great! Looks like they had huge steak to eat!
Good Grief, I forgot to post that comment! Been reading! Was noticing from videos that egg well looks like Palmer's Den!
Saw exchange between Jo & Paula~~~WHO wanted to name our eaglet????? So sorry about Aq. dolphin. Even worse was about the 2 whales found lifeless at Fenwick & maybe other at OC. Had injuries they think from ships. How can that happen?? Well gotta do some stuff & hit the hay---inernetless work in AM!Maybe it will rain enough, I can sneak to other bldg. w/real 'puters! ☺ If I konk out, Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)
Well, I think I will do what Deb often mentioned doing...a little reading before sleeptime...
I'm mindful of the many things about people here that I'll be sending my prayers up for tonight.. and I sure appreciate what others and God have done for me all the while since I was a little baby Magpie, but especially recently
Hope all Sleep Sweetly and that Tuesday is a good day....
Watching Castle now. Jack called. He ate a delicious meal at a steak house, had wine. Sometimes this world is just not just! lol He really liked the meal, some kind of stuffed filet. He asked to talk to the chef, but got no where. He is coming up with a new idea for a meal for us to make. That my jubby!
Sure hope we hear from Andy soon...not like her not to check in like this....
It's so nice to see Crunch, sUSAn, bev, BEagle and others not on as often as we'd like join in for the celebration of little Palmer's arrival!
Videos and pics are all great and thank you everyone for posting!
We have the loudest peepers ever around here today...they started before dusk and are going strong! Screech owls also! Forsythia just started blooming here too. Heard first rumbles of thunder today also! I LOVE SPRING!
I was wondering too who wants to name our eaglet. Everyone who watches this cam needs to know it is not open for discussion and why not. I am sure there is a very nice way to say this to whomever, however many times we might need to. Folks don't know but I surely hope and believe they would respect and agree with the info. Perhaps whatever comment Paula made wherever has that fully resolved already.
I find very little posting on the Facebook eagle group. Mostly us. But I can just as easily or more easily talk to us right here. Unless there is another Facebook Group I haven't found.
Oh, Lowreedaa, Palmer is most definitely named...Jo and I were talking about the FB group that is on the cam page...maybe we should tell them the chick is already named!
Glo, what is on the bottom of the Outdoor Channel page is different from what shows on the group on FB.....that is where someone wanted to called it Stormy or something.
Lynn - that's the same group...if you notice at the bottom of the postings, there are pages to click on....shows the prior comments...that's where they are.
YES you need to tell them the little ones name and why. Then welcome them to join Momsters and follow along with those who have watched and loved this pair over previous seasons etc.
Well I never! Lynn I think there are 10 episodes this season and that was #9. How in the heck are they going to wind this all up if only another show? Did you see him JUMP off the bridge?
Yay!!! I have finished and turned in my final assignment. I did it all, and a day early at that. Missed Dancing with the Stars, but I'll catch up on that later.
Now, I am tired. Macbeth in two classes tomorrow. Should not be too bad. Other class will be doing a movie and discussing realism, etc. I have always liked this movie, based on a short story--"The Revolt of Mother." Plot: Dad promises mom a new house--the old one is not so nice anymore--he decides to build a fancy new barn instead, and . . . I don't want to spoil the end; you might enjoy it. (It caused some controversy when it was first published.)
Ok Paula - it has been decided for your statement about Palmer and an invite for them to join in over here on the comments on Outdoor.. Put your videos on there. I don't know about FB comments other than our momsters but I'll see what is over there. I don't go over but about once in the evening. (mainly just to check on my friends and family)
I just watched Belle digging in the fluff, and I would have to agree with crunch, that she has unearthed that old egg, I just saw it roll into the hole she was digging! She didn't egg roll it, it just fell in...
Deb loved this pair long before most of the folks over there even knew NCTC existed. I think they just need to know about her and why the name Palmer has already been chosen by those who have enjoyed NCTC in previous seasons in honor and memory of Deb.
Gonna be hard to wrap it up in one more episode, for sure, Jo!
Well, gang, I have not had a very good day....some real irritations, so I am going to take my discombobulated spirit to the tub and pretend that Calgon is taking me away. Do they even make that stuff anymore?? LOL!
Hope everyone rests well...including Belle with her little fluff ball. Prayers for all. See you in the morning.
Yes, there's half an egg shell under her, she picked it out with her beak, clearly half a shell, then I think it got shoved back under her when she was digging.
Okay, went to the NCTC facebook page. Low and behold I had already joined the group. Do not remember that! Have not been going to the page. Anyway, posted a picture of Little Palmer being fed today. Then I went to the post comment site on the cam homepage. They are different. You just have to have a facebook account to post. I made a comment about little Palmer. It showed up on my homepage but NOT on the NCTC fb homepage.
Good Morning, Everyone! Many apologies for being MIA! Finally seem to have made it back here without my computer doing a 'crash dump'!
S-O-O-O-O-O HAPPY TO SEE BABY PALMER!!!! YIPPEEEEEEEE!!!
Have had all kinds of trouble with my computer. It had been whining constantly about wanting to do updates, so when I finally let it, the stupid thing is all messed up and keeps doing 'crash dumps'and going to a blue screen (NOT the 'blue screen of death', though). I have to sign back in from scratch, and then it happens again. What a pain! Now it's really, really slow, too. Very frustrating!
Wow! It's so wonderful to hear a baby eagle again! What a miracle!!! Couldn't be happier--kudos to Belle and Lib, for their wonderful care of little Eggbert/Palmer!
Glad to hear that Bob came through the eye surgery OK. Prayers for a speedy recovery!
Sorry to hear about the loss of the baby dolphin. Between that and the death of the orca trainer, I'm re-thinking whether we should even have whales and dolphins in captivity! JMHO.
Have to attempt to read back on the blog and catch up--a daunting task! Will have to do it later today, though, because have to study a particularly tough and long chapter for a test on Wednesday night. Prayers would be appreciated--lots to try to remember!
Hope all of you are feeling well. You have all been in my prayers, and my thoughts. Absolutely HATE when I am unable to get to the blog! Have been having major withdrawal symptoms! Right now, need some breakfast. My blood sugar is only 83, and I'm STARVED! BBIALW, Good Lord willing and "the creek don't rise!" :o]
Good morning everyone. I hear the sweet noises of morning on my desktop and camera has been running for over 2 minutes without a hiccup. This coul dbe the start of something Good. Oh my I surely do hope so. Well Dex and I are getting ready to head across the street. So glad I don't see any snow in that nest. Had me worried for a minute when I read a few posts back.
Thanks Wanda I did post lots more info on the box turtles on that Blog entry for you in particular but others who also may have started to have questions.
My camera is running very well. I am so glad to see and hear it this way.
Good morning, fine fowl friends, Cloudy and chilly here so far, but all of the various birdsong proves that spring is here! Belle has been a bit noisy....think she wants Lib to relieve her!
Glad that Andy posted. Was going to let you know that she emailed during the night about her puter problems.
I was up too late last night, so now I am a bit weary this morning.
I hear all kinds of sounds at the nest. Something going on below, and, I guess, Palmer chirping. Not sure. Something is chirping. And there he/she is! Getting fed! More chirps.
407 comments:
«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 407 Newer› Newest»Well that split didn't hurt at all!
Oh, on the 4 wheeler story...a gal here at work heard from her son who knows the parents....that the key was left in the 4 wheeler, and the boy got on it and road it without the parents knowledge...such a tragedy.
Make that "rode" it
Think I am going to venture outside. It is up to 68. Yea!
Have had our cam and Hornby up while doing chores. Hornby eagle has been really calling out a lot. Scared Annie! lol
I am going out....BBL!
This looks like a sirloin steak to me...nothing but good stuff for Palmer:)
Great video, Paula. Our little pipsqueak has some good vocals!!!
Fed your fish for the 2nd day in a row!!
Wow Lynn - no wonder they weren't very active when I fed them..... Fat Fish!
PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT FOR THE FIRST WEEKEND IN JUNE...THAT IS THE COMMUNITY YARD SALE IN HERE.
Thanks, Lynn, they were getting hungry :)
Blackwater cuties sacked out butt to butt :)
It could be, Wanda. Remember the hamburger they found last year?
If you'll notice, there wasn't any defuring or plucking at that feeding, Belle just dug into it!
Back for a visit.
Hi everyone.
Did see Palmer bobbling around trying to get some food.
Speaking of Bob, so glad your surgery is over and very glad you took time to let us know.
BBL
Any weekend works for me, Jo, except Easter! Can't do two big days in a row.
Hello everyone. How is Palmer today?
Chili and corn bread again!
I love it! Such an easy meal. The warmed up the next day is even better than the first.
Hi T-Bird! Check out videos on Paula's name. Palmer is growing already!
Just curious -- guess I missed something that annoyed Paula and Jo -- did someone try to rename Palmer? Well, whoever is doing whatever, I know a place where a body can be hidden in a washer under a snow bank near a bear cave.
I hear ya Dana! I hear ya Lynn!
Love it Judie! I bet there might even be a Marker of Garland! ROFL
Hmmmmm.....I don't see ANYTHING on FB that Paula has posted about Palmer. Wonder why that is??
Judie your cracking me up with laughter !!
Hay Bob maybe you can make it to NCTC for lunch with us.
Paula thank you so much for that video. I loved it. Our Little Palmer is eating well.
Thelma good to see you on here.
I've got to go fix my fiddles for din din. Not out of a box tonight.
I'll be walking back in here cause I'll just put them on simmer.
Oh, Judie...you've definitely got it covered!!! LOL!
Eatin time for our little bobblehead :)
Lynn - because I've had too much other places to post, emails, etc.
I will post my 2 videos tonight.
FB is usually the last place I post!
Palmer is being feed
Just read some sad news. The dolphin calf at the Baltimore Aquarium has died.
oh no, it was only a few weeks old, correct, Ceil???
went to the store, it was raining, came out of the store, raining, now rain and the sun is out...off to look for a rainbow:)
Just saw a poop shoot from one of the eaglets at NBG
it was 11 days old. They are thinking infection Only 33 percent live the first year.
We delivered soup and sandwich today and I did not put my raincoat on. Got wet.
so what was on the menu, what kind of soup and sandwich?
Oh, Paula, I found the place of the posts, thanks to Mits....I thought you had already posted about the name on there.
Oh, Ceil, that is sad. Poor thing...poor mama dolphin. :(
It was the corned beef and cabbage menu
Having a rain shower here in the valley. May be headed towards the nest... It was short lived.
So sorry about the little dolphin ...
I had read about them and was aware that this could happen but I was so hoping he would make it and that I would get a chance to see him one day.
Awesome video Paula thank you so much for making it and sharing it. My feed is not working at all like that. I have had it up much of the day but well its not like that at all. Yours is very enjoyable. Thanks again.
Sorry I drop out without excusing myself. Hubby needed me.
Now, excuse me, I have company stopping by. Hopefully I will get back before nighty, nighttime.
I got to see Belle feed Little Palmer....eeeeeeeecited.
BBL ^..^
Glo have you tried the browser Foxfire?
Ceil they had stated that when it was born. I was like most hoping that the little dolphin would beat the odds.
Poor mama dolphin :(
I have been watching Momma PA falcon all day, she has mostly been off the egg, now is lying on it finally, so maybe another one soon, she laid the 1st one this past Saturday at 8:15 a.m.
Rain drops at the nest.
Hopefully they will stop very soon.
Yes Dana I have tried both firefox and iE 8. I get herky jerky feed but it is sort of live with sound LOL. Just not at all smooth for any length of time as in even a few secs :-(. Thats fine I can enjoy Paula's videos. I keep the still on my laptop and then when it looks like i need to head to the bigger desktop in the bedroom where i have the live feed I go in there to try to watch some of the happenings.
INCOMING........
I hear and eagle and there it is!
brought food and left...
TIME FOR A SWITCH
What's the fresh food I believe fish. Brought it in and flew off. I thought they would make a shift change.
Din Din Time
He isn't too wobbly!
He is also Large!
Feeding time again.
lol Palmer did fall over and go Boom!
Mema Jo but his fall overs aren't boo boos. His head is just too wobbly tee hee
Yes Dana He does bounce right back up.
Hedgie don't forget 10pm TV
Damages... You hear us Wanda?
Just wish I knew how many more episodes we get to watch.
Checking on Lily and Hope
Not much vocal right now
I can see Lily's collar is still on
boy, Noah is getting huge:)
off to fix dinner...bbl
Glo hope you don't mind but I put your picture of "by Glo First Glimpse of Little Palmer". In the Eaglet Momster photo group for 3/1 to 3/31. I'm not taking credit for the picture just wanted to get that first look at him in the album. Hope it is OK.
Watching Hornby and their 1 egg
I think Noah was just getting dinner, too. FB page says he will go to new home at end of month, so I'm hoping that's next Weds instead of this Friday, which is 6 weeks. Hope they post what his actual last day will be.
I hadn't checked on him since last week, his feathers are growing in fast!
Glo, sorry you can't get a decent live feed. Have you tried turning off hardware acceleration on flash player...right click on live feed, go to settings, click on the monitor icon, uncheck enable hardware acceleration.
Glad you enjoyed the video.
My feed at work hangs up a little bit...the computer there is kinda old!
Mits, Noah IS getting big!!! Something said recently about it being almost time for him to leave....???? Are they going to move him someplace else? Why?
Well, Gee, Paula---you answered my question before I asked it!!!
From NCTC website
Spring Update #1 - March 22, 2010
On Sunday, March 21, 2010, at about 4 PM the eaglet hatched out. This is great news since this is the one egg out of four that made it this year, and it was right on time.
There will be lots of action now with the new eaglet. Plenty of food will be brought into the nest, and there will be ample time to watch this now tiny eagle grow.
Enjoy.
Nice to hear our peepers!
Lynn - they will transfer him to a hack box...
I am watching the MN Bound Momma Owl.
Has about 7 viewers.
The Wildearth.tv site has access to all these good cams.
I do need to check out the Islands!
Wow...
saw a little feeding, heard the baby peeps, and hear the peepers now
Yes Paula I just checked. I thought I had turned it off. I have it off. Thanks. I can hear the peepers right now well off and on LOL. Its Ok for me. I enjoy whatever I can get. I am thrilled to see our pair and their little one :-).
crowded nest at BWE...both adults are there
Thank you Paula
for all your efforts with Outdoor Channel and NCTC on getting things up and running....
...and thanks to NCTC and Outdoor Channel folks too ☺
just can't say enough about all that !!
Eagle's head and tail are whiter than white !
I am back. Spent a couple of hours working in the yard. Sun felt soooo good!
Talked with Laurel. She got a virus on her school computer. Surprising since they have LOTS of safe guards. The technicians said the google bar is a great way to get viruses. Lovely! Anyway she had porn sights popping up on her computer within sight of students. She turned it off fast! Called for help, whispered "I have naked ladies". lol They got there FAST! It had infected everything. They had to wipe her computer clean.
Ceil
sorry to hear of little baby dolphin at the aquarium...
that is sad....
GREAT to hear from our Bob Q, glad he seems to be coming along OK...
and sure was nice to read all the excitement here today from lots of people that were here way before me, and some during and after I joined up ☺
Dancing with the Stars starts soon. Glad Jack is not here. I can watch it without his snide remarks. lol
LOL, Lolly, bet they got a laugh out of that phone call! Doesn't take much to get that crap on the computer...it hides so well!
PaulaGuess what Hardware acceleration wasn't turned off on my desktop. I have just turned it off. I would so love if it will run a little smoother for me. My desktop is older than my laptop but hopefully that will help out. Thanks again.
DWTS comes back on tonight!
forsythias are blooming everywhere here...pretty little yellow flowers on bushes...
time to take care of a few things for neighbor lady...
be back in a little while....
I really am NOT glad Jack is not here. He has not even called this evening. He is in TROUBLE!
btw: when James was watching the cam and sitting with me while I was reading comments yesterday before Palmer hatched...he got a big kick out of the monikers and avatars....asking who is this one and that one...someday he will meet more of you ! ☺
Hi all Just poped in for a min. I think you well fine that eggshell is a hole egg. She dug it up and rolled it next to chick after it hatched. When you stop and think why would she keep it there. Chick could get hurt on part of a shell. This needs checked into.
Egg roll by 81 at TH
Hatch dates 3/24 to 3/28 2 eggs
Incubating - reception not too clear
Hatch dates 4/12 to 4/16 2 eggs
PH Incubating eggs
Hatch dates 4/1 to 4/4/ 2 eggs
Gone are the days of wooden egg replacements! We've come a long way!
Hello everybody! I have been reading the messages. Saw little Palmer get fed and took a picture. The first time I have heard the little chirps. Precious!!
Hello everyone. My apologies for interrupting but wanted to say how excited I am to see little Palmer.
My goose bumps have goose bumps and I thank God for His marvelous wonders and works.
What a rough winter Belle and Lib had and it has certainly paid off with a little peeper. WOW!
Proud of the Momsters and the name Palmer is just perfect.
I'm going to hop over to my class site for awhile. I am so tired and I need to wind up this last assignment.
See you later.
Crunch without the zoom feature it is hard to tell.... Wow Now you'll have us thinking!
Momma Owl is doing a foot fancy egg roll Both eggs visible
Welcome BEagle - Thanks for coming on with us. We are one proud set of Nesters! Goose bumps and all!
I was wondering about the aerial wing lift Belle did yesterday. I saw it but did not realize Palmer hatched. Was that lift significant? Do they always do that?
Jo I seen her dug it up and roll it in next to chick. That was about 10 min. after the hatch. Egg was at the 6:00 mark under the fluff.
BEagle - have you watched the videos Paula has on her blog - just click on her name and the the blog of eaglet momsters.
I am not certain what you saw with the Wing Lift and I'm sure Palmer has been down in that egg cup since hatching.
Belle was stretching out big time after being over the egg well for so long. Try to tell me what you think you saw. I could be wrong.
Man Crunch! Guess the only thing we can do is really keep a watch - I don't think it will be a hatch - I guess somewhere in that nest other eggs are dug in from the first 3 she laid. Well one hatched and that is Palmer and you're saying one was dug up and so there are 2 more somewhere.
I think all we can do is watch very very carefully and try to get a pic of it. Wow! Crunch! Glad you told us what you saw.
Crunch I know we will all be taking an extra careful look and one of us will holler when we get a picture and try to confirm it isn't the half shell!
Thanks again! Stick with us, Guy!
Belle would not let a egg shell there that long. They are sharp.
Hi ya', Crunch Bob. How are y'all doing?? Regardless of what the old egg situation is, there's nothing that can be done about it......no going near the nest from here on out til after fledge!
Well, she backed off the egg cup and stretched her wings a little. Then she backed up more...closer to the camera, spread her wings and came off the nest a little. She looked like she would fly away but just dropped back down on the nest and went over to the egg cup.
I did check the Momsters and it was on there but I didn't check the time.
I'll have to agree with what you say about Belle and the half egg shell not being left in the egg cup.
Like I said, Palmer was egg #4. Somewhere in the nest are 3 others and you have sighted one in the egg cup.
Any suggestions how to find out, Crunch other then wait it out.
Lolly, Jack is not in trouble he is in WV with Wanda! Bet he took her a shiny garland, too.
Ceil, sorry about the baby dolphin.
Paula, what's a hack box?
Off to watch Hoarders. Quiet at nest.
BEagle all I can think of is that little Palmer just better not hang onto her Mom or Dad's wings when they stretch or else Palmer is going over the edge of the nest! And that would just break tooooooooo many hearts!
I am just glad Palmer is safe and sound down in that deep egg well!
Don't worry another minute about it BEagle! ((hugs))
Chick check....some digging
Bob I will check out my video and see what I can see
Couldn't get a really good look, night time would be best to see if she dug up an egg.
Jo We will have to wait an see what happens.
Hedgie NO you can't go to nest wouldn't do any good any ways.
OK. She's checking out her brood now. What a sight!
Maybe the wing lift was her example of what she expects Palmer to do eventually. (Actually she looked like she was jumping for joy that she pulled Palmer through all the snow and cold!)
lol
LOlly, it's really a hack tower...I'll find you a pic....big outside cage for eaglets.
I think when Belle did her wingercising yesterday, she was just stretching her wings, although it did look celebratory. :)
Deb used to talk about them all the time, they would put the osprey in the hack towers in SD.
Lolly, this is the first place we learned about them. They took some chicks from Blackwater and introduced them to Vermont
Vermont eagle program
Even if she did dig up an egg, it will get buried again soon...
I just saw Momma Owl take off for her break. It is around 8:42 each evening.
Incredible to have a built in clock!
BEagle - I think she was jumping for joy also! lol
Crunch - We will keep eagle eyes on that egg cup! Thanks so much for bringing the info to all our attentions.
Heading for TV

That lunchtime feeding video is something else Paula ! Thanks!
Thanks for all the nesting news Jo, and others on here today also ...
been making some spot checks of a few here and there...more to watch for in the morning (or maybe overnight at EENet)
What a great time of year for Birds ! And the people watching them ! ☺
I don't even know my May and June schedules so I'll go with the flow and see what I can work out regarding a Nest Visit
same old, same old
ttfn back before bedtime
You're welcome, Margy :0
Glo, did it help at all?
Go Buzz!
Evan was great on DWTS.
Paula, It was Judie who asked about a "hack box". I know what a hack tower is!
Jo, once again the GHO snuck into the nest. I was watching carefully, then all of a sudden the eggs were covered!
You gotta admire Buzz Aldrin at 80 years old doing Dancing with the Stars!
Thanks, Lolly.
Judie, check out the link I posted to the Vermont program!
Watched Buzz. He really did not do too well. lol But, he is 80! Wow!
And, of course, I would look like a real klutz out there, so who am I to criticize.
I enjoyed watching our Gold Medalist..Evan.
They should give points to Buzz for his age, like half a point for every 10 years over 50!
Thank you, Paula.
Classes begin for me tomorrow morning. So this must be an early night.
Has anyone heard from Andy today? Maybe I missed her.
Turning my light off but will leave the night light on for others. Andy, if you come in please set our alarm.
Goodnight to all including Belle, Lib, and Palmer.
Enjoying Dancing with the Stars too. Paula Feed still stalls out every couple of seconds. Tomorrow when there is feedings and peepings etc I might be able to tell if there has been any improvement. There might be a little but well. MTBR
Evening Everyone! Went to Red Lobster to celebrate baby Palmer & late B'Day dinner!! YUM YUM!!!! Got lots of leftovers. Bet birds would like it.
Paula, your video is great! Looks like they had huge steak to eat!
Time for Damages, Jo!
DWTS was okay....MTBR as the weeks progress! Can't pick any favs yet, but go Buzz, just because!!!
Very strange that we haven't heard anything from Andy. I emailed her yesterday about our hatch.....I'll call her tomorrow if she doesn't post tonight!
Seems like they started with fewer couples this season, didn't it? Only 11.
Good night and sweet eagle dreams, my friends of fine feathers and fur! Good night Little Palmer, our little miracle! :)
Good Grief, I forgot to post that comment! Been reading!
Was noticing from videos that egg well looks like Palmer's Den!
Saw exchange between Jo & Paula~~~WHO wanted to name our eaglet?????
So sorry about Aq. dolphin. Even worse was about the 2 whales found lifeless at Fenwick & maybe other at OC. Had injuries they think from ships. How can that happen??
Well gotta do some stuff & hit the hay---inernetless work in AM!Maybe it will rain enough, I can sneak to other bldg. w/real 'puters! ☺
If I konk out, Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)
Well, I think I will do what Deb often mentioned doing...a little reading before sleeptime...
I'm mindful of the many things about people here that I'll be sending my prayers up for tonight..
and I sure appreciate what others and God have done for me all the while since I was a little baby Magpie, but especially recently
Hope all Sleep Sweetly and that Tuesday is a good day....
God Bless Us, Every One
xo ☺ ♥
Watching Castle now. Jack called. He ate a delicious meal at a steak house, had wine. Sometimes this world is just not just! lol He really liked the meal, some kind of stuffed filet. He asked to talk to the chef, but got no where. He is coming up with a new idea for a meal for us to make. That my jubby!
Just "pooping" in to say goodnight!
Lolly, hope you've heard from Jack by now!
Sure hope we hear from Andy soon...not like her not to check in like this....
It's so nice to see Crunch, sUSAn, bev, BEagle and others not on as often as we'd like join in for the celebration of little Palmer's arrival!
Videos and pics are all great and thank you everyone for posting!
We have the loudest peepers ever around here today...they started before dusk and are going strong! Screech owls also! Forsythia just started blooming here too. Heard first rumbles of thunder today also! I LOVE SPRING!
Have a great evening and prayers for all!
I was wondering too who wants to name our eaglet. Everyone who watches this cam needs to know it is not open for discussion and why not. I am sure there is a very nice way to say this to whomever, however many times we might need to. Folks don't know but I surely hope and believe they would respect and agree with the info. Perhaps whatever comment Paula made wherever has that fully resolved already.
I find very little posting on the Facebook eagle group. Mostly us. But I can just as easily or more easily talk to us right here. Unless there is another Facebook Group I haven't found.
Lowreeda - don't you dare throw those garlic cheddar biscuits out for the birds!
Oh, Lowreedaa, Palmer is most definitely named...Jo and I were talking about the FB group that is on the cam page...maybe we should tell them the chick is already named!
Glo, what is on the bottom of the Outdoor Channel page is different from what shows on the group on FB.....that is where someone wanted to called it Stormy or something.
Keeping an eye on Hornby tonight. Second egg is due to be laid.
Lynn - that's the same group...if you notice at the bottom of the postings, there are pages to click on....shows the prior comments...that's where they are.
Most of the eagle forums know the chicks name, and that's what counts, but it probably wouldn't hurt to post the info on the FB group as well...
YES you need to tell them the little ones name and why. Then welcome them to join Momsters and follow along with those who have watched and loved this pair over previous seasons etc.
Jo...what do you think now? I can't believe that Patty keeps getting away with all the s---- she pulls!
Well I never! Lynn I think there are 10 episodes this season and that was #9. How in the heck are they going to wind this all up if only another show?
Did you see him JUMP off the bridge?
Now What!!! I'll be sure to watch next week!
Hello!
Yay!!! I have finished and turned in my final assignment. I did it all, and a day early at that. Missed Dancing with the Stars, but I'll catch up on that later.
Now, I am tired. Macbeth in two classes tomorrow. Should not be too bad. Other class will be doing a movie and discussing realism, etc. I have always liked this movie, based on a short story--"The Revolt of Mother." Plot: Dad promises mom a new house--the old one is not so nice anymore--he decides to build a fancy new barn instead, and . . . I don't want to spoil the end; you might enjoy it. (It caused some controversy when it was first published.)
Ok Paula - it has been decided for your statement about Palmer and an invite for them to join in over here on the comments on Outdoor.. Put your videos on there.
I don't know about FB comments other than our momsters but I'll see what is over there. I don't go over but about once in the evening. (mainly just to check on my friends and family)
I just watched Belle digging in the fluff, and I would have to agree with crunch, that she has unearthed that old egg, I just saw it roll into the hole she was digging! She didn't egg roll it, it just fell in...
Deb loved this pair long before most of the folks over there even knew NCTC existed. I think they just need to know about her and why the name Palmer has already been chosen by those who have enjoyed NCTC in previous seasons in honor and memory of Deb.
Good night, good friends. See you tomorrow.
Wow Paula - glad you were watching and saw it. I really thought is was the half shell - I'm glad Crunch brought it to our attention.
How about we all join that group and just start talking about Palmer. ☺
Our eagle just tucked head under the wing.. Good sign that all is well!
Checking FB and some cams.......
Could see the egg again....I thought it was 1/2 a shell, too...was wondering why she didn't pick it out.
I'll post something over on the FB group tomorrow...
Gonna be hard to wrap it up in one more episode, for sure, Jo!
Well, gang, I have not had a very good day....some real irritations, so I am going to take my discombobulated spirit to the tub and pretend that Calgon is taking me away. Do they even make that stuff anymore?? LOL!
Hope everyone rests well...including Belle with her little fluff ball. Prayers for all. See you in the morning.
It isn't really FB - it is comments that show on Outdoor.. FB is Pamela and then our Sharon and Sissy.
I am heading back the hallway!
Everyone have a very restful night
Prayers for everyone's wants/needs
Good Night All
(((hugs))) ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
You remember we did have two eggs there for awhile. Interesting.
Good night for real.
Hope tomorrow is better, Lynn.
hearing some Palmer peeps
Just took some video....think it's a half an egg now...gonna recheck it.
Yes, there's half an egg shell under her, she picked it out with her beak, clearly half a shell, then I think it got shoved back under her when she was digging.
Okay, went to the NCTC facebook page. Low and behold I had already joined the group. Do not remember that! Have not been going to the page. Anyway, posted a picture of Little Palmer being fed today. Then I went to the post comment site on the cam homepage. They are different. You just have to have a facebook account to post. I made a comment about little Palmer. It showed up on my homepage but NOT on the NCTC fb homepage.
Nite Lynn! Sure hope tomorrow is a better day! (((HUGS)))
Nite all. Going to call it quits!
Drowned my sorrows of Jack being gone in pop corn and a G&T. lol I'll show him!
Sweet dreams for all! See ya tomorrow.
Yup, they are different, but I can't figure out how to access the comments on the outdoorchannel cam homepage thru facebook...maybe you can't...
WHAT? You mean it's past midnight?
OK...going to bed:)
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL AND THANKS GIVEN FOR ANSWERED PRAYERS
NITE~NITE PALMER♥
Belle is alert and awake, perhaps awaiting a breakfast delivery? Nah, it's still dark.
Or is it Lib, just waiting for Belle to come back? Hmmmm.
I'm just waiting to see that precious Palmer!
Good morning!
I have only a short time to visit. Was hoping that Andy had been here, but I see she has not been. Maybe we will hear from her today.
Gotta get a cup of coffee. It is early!
Belle--I guess it is Belle, is still awake and looking around this morning. Would love to see Palmer.
Might be a bit cold for Palmer right now, though.
Bye!
Palmer is getting her breakfast this morning!!
Oh, Palmer is eating!
Hi Sissy!
Wasn't that the sweetest.
I Can't believe he'll be big enough to do his wingercizes soon. He's so tiny now.
Good morning Lori! Yes that was precious! She is one loved baby eaglet for sure! They worked so hard for her survival!!
Breakfast at BWE, osprey at BWO. Lots of stuff happening! We have an inch of stupid snow on the ground and it is snowing like crazy!!!
Morning all:)
47° and cloudy. Gonna be a windy day here today.
Good Morning, Everyone!
Many apologies for being MIA! Finally seem to have made it back here without my computer doing a 'crash dump'!
S-O-O-O-O-O HAPPY TO SEE BABY PALMER!!!! YIPPEEEEEEEE!!!
Have had all kinds of trouble with my computer. It had been whining constantly about wanting to do updates, so when I finally let it, the stupid thing is all messed up and keeps doing 'crash dumps'and going to a blue screen (NOT the 'blue screen of death', though). I have to sign back in from scratch, and then it happens again. What a pain! Now it's really, really slow, too. Very frustrating!
Wow! It's so wonderful to hear a baby eagle again! What a miracle!!!
Couldn't be happier--kudos to Belle and Lib, for their wonderful care of little Eggbert/Palmer!
Glad to hear that Bob came through the eye surgery OK. Prayers for a speedy recovery!
Sorry to hear about the loss of the baby dolphin. Between that and the death of the orca trainer, I'm re-thinking whether we should even have whales and dolphins in captivity! JMHO.
Have to attempt to read back on the blog and catch up--a daunting task!
Will have to do it later today, though, because have to study a particularly tough and long chapter for a test on Wednesday night. Prayers would be appreciated--lots to try to remember!
Hope all of you are feeling well. You have all been in my prayers, and my thoughts. Absolutely HATE when I am unable to get to the blog! Have been having major withdrawal symptoms!
Right now, need some breakfast. My blood sugar is only 83, and I'm STARVED! BBIALW, Good Lord willing and "the creek don't rise!" :o]
HANG ON PALMER!
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE:)
ANDREA! So glad you made it back...we were about to have a Road Trip to California to search for you! Glad you are OK♥
Good morning everyone. I hear the sweet noises of morning on my desktop and camera has been running for over 2 minutes without a hiccup. This coul dbe the start of something Good. Oh my I surely do hope so.
Well Dex and I are getting ready to head across the street. So glad I don't see any snow in that nest. Had me worried for a minute when I read a few posts back.
Morning, Glo. Enjoy your coffee, I am about to get mine.
Loved your Spring Fling Thing on Smilebox:)
Sissy/Bev lives a far ways from the nest and no snow predicted here, so not to worry:) She has snow often, when we don't.
Good Morning Everyone
Breakfast time at our nest ☺
OOOOOOOO the baby!
all tucked back in again! Mommy will protect him from the big bad crow!
Good morning all!
adult keeps calling out
Thanks Wanda I did post lots more info on the box turtles on that Blog entry for you in particular but others who also may have started to have questions.
My camera is running very well. I am so glad to see and hear it this way.
here a red shouldered hawk now, along with crow fussing and sounds like someone is near microphone, maybe dad!
maybe sound from below? vehicles moving around down there.
Good morning everyone...have a good day.
2 falcons eggs up at PA Falcon cam

Looks like we have some action starting up at BWO this morning.
What's been happening around our nest??
My live feed started up "almost" without problem ... short delay as the arrow circled is all.
The picture is too bright, probably the IR is still on. Otherwise, it's fine.
C(°ٿ°)D
Jim
Good morning, fine fowl friends,
Cloudy and chilly here so far, but all of the various birdsong proves that spring is here! Belle has been a bit noisy....think she wants Lib to relieve her!
Glad that Andy posted. Was going to let you know that she emailed during the night about her puter problems.
Palmer is in view!
Palmer is awake again!
Hi all!
Andy! Good to hear from you. We were worried.
I was up too late last night, so now I am a bit weary this morning.
I hear all kinds of sounds at the nest. Something going on below, and, I guess, Palmer chirping. Not sure. Something is chirping. And there he/she is! Getting fed! More chirps.
Yum...more chow!!
Paula, now the comments on the cam page are only 3 OLD ones with no link for other pages....very wierd!!!
Will return later. Time to post today's doings on the whiteboard.
