Thank you Steve. Hope it's a lovely day at the nest before the evening turn.
I'll holler at the others!

Put a vid and 2 pics on Blog. Not very good, but tell the tale somewhat.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks for the call over, Loretta.
Steve this is a gorgeous day - you should be in the out of doors!

Mits said...

thanks for the call over, Loretta

Lynne2 said...

thanks Loweeda and Steve

from old thread
I have seen the owl cam pics Jo! Sure wish it was live stream though!

The male goldfinches here are really "yellowing up". Azaleas are about ready to bloom, and some blooms have come out on the old dogwoods out front.

Lynne2 said...

Love your pictures Loretta!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

White-throated sparrow is out here singing me such beautiful songs!

My goldfinches are getting really yellow too. Even have a couple of beautiful yellow butterflies out here.

Mits said...

DEB'S RED TAIL HAWK CAM

3 eggs hatching any day now.

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks for the call over Loretta.

Sharon had just come on. Hope she hops on over here.

Little Man has his neck and leg hurting. Had to give him a muscle relaxer. I've given him one today so he will lay still and stay off it.

Mema Jo wrote on older thread. That I went to City-Data searched around. I did not find anything about Hidey or the name Flyboy. Does not mean I didn't miss it. Maybe someone else can find it.

We certainly want to make sure people have and keeps this eaglets name Palmer.

Lynne2 said...

If my guesstamation is right, looks like some weather heading at the mine in WV. Just what they need :(
I sure hope they can get back in there...these families and the community need that very badly.

Looks like we'll need to keep an eye on the sky later today. Won't be surprised if we get a Severe Storm Watch posted later.

NatureNut said...

TY, Lynne. I was so disappointed that I couldn't get more of the swim, but there are too many trees, twigs in the way as you go upriver. (Plus I was supposed to be in the office--left door open to hear phone SSHH!)

I just got an email from Chrissy in response to ecard I sent her last night. She did not give any new information, but a TY & how she cherishes all the friendships & then she had to quit because of getting weepy.

Lynne2 said...

awwww Dana, poor Little Man...hope he feels better soon.

Don't worry about Palmer's name. WE know he's Palmer and no one can take that away!

Poor Chrissy. I sure wish there was something we could do. I wonder do they have any family they can stay with.

Morning Jim!

Loretta, I know NOTHING!!!!! sshshhhh

Lynne2 said...

My goodness, Palmer and adult on MountNest....I'm renaming that part of the nest to Palmer Mountain!

hedgie said...

Dana, the Flyboy name showed up on their first page, I think. Whoever "they" are!
Sorry Little Man is ailing.

Loretta, will check out your pics later.

Gotta finish getting ready to get out of here. Later, gators.

Mema Jo said...

Cancel Silver Alert for Norma

Just called and spoke to Norma
She is doing well and waiting for a visit from Lisa today (and her 3 dogs)
Had been to the Wellness Center - had been into the ballgames - and said she felt badly about not taking the time to be in touch with all of us. She'll be on soon again in the near future.

Mits said...

both O's at CT cam

Mits said...

good luck today, Lynn:)

movin said...

Both Ospreys are at BWO right now.

They sure are getting that nest built up. Should be ready soon.

Mema Jo said...

I love Deb's Hawk cam - I remember her introducing us to it last spring.
They won't go in and remove that plastic bag. Momma Hawk has used it as part of the nest.. Last year they say she had a bike's rubber innertube. She is such a pretty faced hawk.

Mits said...

she is stunning....

Mits said...

there is a dead bird that has been there for a couple of days now, and some fresh pin sprig....the plastic bag has been in there since eggs were laid, she rearranges it every now and then

wvgal_dana said...

Just mated again in Conn Milford...they have eggs. Not sure if that is 1 or 3 eggs I see? Sticks in my way.

Mema Jo said...

I thought I saw the Pine Sprig - Guess they are as smart as an Eagle.

Mema Jo said...

My dogwoods are starting to bloom now.
Easter was early this year because they usually bloom before Easter.

I am headed back the hallway for
Street Clothes.

BBL

wvgal_dana said...

Well I'm going out to mow before the rain comes tonight and then I won't be able to mow tomorrow.

Catalina Island Report

There's a very interesting Catalina Report up this Thursday morn.

Mits said...

Finland nest cam is stuck again...hope all they need is a reboot...would hate to miss the osprey action...

glo said...

Good afternoon everyone. Its sunny and downright cold wind here today but rain is gone. I surely hope the nest area doesn't have to deal with any severe stuff coming through. We certainly don't have any control over the weather there or anywhere.

I need a magic wand there are so many things for so many folks I wish I could make all better.

Enjoy your day. First thing tomorrow a teen and I are off to photograph the pelicans. Surely hoping for sunshine when we get there oh and some pelicans too.

Mits said...

I love to watch the pelicans when I'm at the beach, the way they fly and the way they dive for fish...

Mits said...

just got confirmation from CT, there are 2 eggs there now....

Mits said...

both hawks at Deb's RTH cam now...one is eating leftover dead bird, finally:)

hedgie said...

I'M H-O-M-E.......
I'm NED=No Evidence of Disease!!!!!!!!!! Happy Dance time!!! He said at 5 yrs. I am basically considered cured with a little c. Could come back, but then again might not...x-ray every 6 mos. Thanks You all for your prayers, love and support!!

Mits said...

BOOYAH!!!!!, Lynn that is the best news:)

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

WHOOHOO LYNN!! GREAT NEWS!

Mema Jo said...

WHOO HOO! That's the word we wanted to hear! You dance till your heart's content, Gal!

hedgie said...

LOL, Jo....would if I had enough wind!! Thank you all!!!

Lynne2 said...

YAY LYNN! Now that's some GOOOOOOD news!!!

on CNN
Bald Eagle Rescue

glo said...

Yeah Lynn awesome news. One of my closest friends just hit her 10 year mark. Like you she goes every 6 months but essentially she is as healthy if not more healthy than I am. Dancing with you in celebration all the way over here in IL .

hedgie said...

Bill gave me a cute little baby AFLAC duck (stuffed animal). Looks like a downy eaglet to me!!

For the first time in the 39 years I've been up here, the apple trees are all in bloom already. Apple Blossom Festival in Winchester isn't until first weekend in May---which is when they are usually blooming!

Mits said...

and they will probably never find the person who shot it, Lynne:(

paula eagleholic said...

Look at our Palmer, all plotzed in the nest ♥

Check out how dark the BWE chicklets are...

hedgie said...

Oh, Lynne, so sad. I fear that the bird will not be saveable. Poor thing. And, of course, they'll never catch the jerk who shot it.

paula eagleholic said...

Congrats, Lynn. Wonderful news!

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Lynne for that story - Hopefully the injured Eagle will regain its health with the help of the humans who care so much!

hedgie said...

Cool update from Catalina, Jim!

hedgie said...

Wow, Lowreeda....short video is right! Sure wish you'd had more juice!!

Lynne2 said...

No, it doesn't look too good for the poor eagle. I wish they had said which organization was caring for it so we can check the progress. And sadly, you're right, they'll never catch the bozo that shot him.

Really windy here...that USUALLY means that the storms coming with the cold front won't be severe.

hedgie said...

Getting gusty here and see some thunderheads building in the SW.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

That is the clearest I have seen our cam look in a long, long time!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Lib brought the food in, flew out and now Belle is feeding Palmer.

Mits said...

it always looks clearer when it is cloudy, Sharon:)

Mits said...

weather for nest....
Rest of This Afternoon
Mostly cloudy with a chance of showers and thunderstorms. Some thunderstorms may be severe with gusty winds. Highs around 80. South winds around 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph. Chance of rain 50 percent.
Tonight
Showers and thunderstorms in the evening. Some thunderstorms may be severe with gusty winds. Lows in the upper 40s. West winds 15 to 20 mph. Chance of rain near 100 percent.
amen:(

Mits said...

and tomorrow cooler and windier....guess spring is taking a break

paula eagleholic said...

Boy that is one heck of a fish in the nest

paula eagleholic said...

Look at all the buds on the sycamore.

movin said...

paula eagleholic said...

I think Lib brought more vittles!

paula eagleholic said...

LOL Palmer is laying between the eats!

paula eagleholic said...

Palmer is really sacked out, guess Belle told him to lay low!

paula eagleholic said...

Lib is still there in the nest. Tree is really swaying...

paula eagleholic said...

You can get a good look at their size difference right now, too.

wvgal_dana said...

A+ Lynn-Hedgie CONGRATULATIONS, BEST NEWS I'VE HEARD ALL DAY, and GREAT NEWS I KNOW FOR YOU
( :

wvgal_dana said...

We all know whoever shot the eagle surely knew what they were shooting at. It is hard enough for them to thrive as it is. It was so weak in that video sad sad sad.

paula eagleholic said...

Still riding out the wind in the nest...no rain yet, tho

hedgie said...

Oh, boy, we are getting clobbered!! WIND, RAIN, THUNDER!

paula eagleholic said...

Wind has eased up some, Belle moved to the left side and is feeding Palmer, Lib just took off.

hedgie said...

Hang on Palmer!!

paula eagleholic said...

Spaghetti for dinner!

hedgie said...

Thanks, Jim and Dana, and everyone else for your congrats!!! I'm kind of happy!!

Mema Jo said...

Look at those feetsies!
Palmer is getting a belly full.

paula eagleholic said...

Look at those cute eaglet feets!

hedgie said...

Put those wings down, baby!

wvgal_dana said...

Very Very dark and really strong bad winds. Here comes the strong rains.

I might be closing down at some point.

Batten down the hatches.

Put a net over the nest, so Palmer stays in there.

hedgie said...

Ooey,gooey stringy food.

Mema Jo said...

Paula - Yepper and it is Spaghetti for my dinner too! lol - Yuck!

NatureNut said...

Was checking cam to see about weather there and boy, there's a whole lot of singing for supper going on!

hedgie said...

Sitting on that baby now! Good Belle.

paula eagleholic said...

Palmer trying to hide under Belle, still no rain yet

hedgie said...

LOL, she's holding him in place with her wing!

paula eagleholic said...

As soon as I said that it has started raining, whos Belle, wind blew her in the nest, Palmer scootching up under Belle!

hedgie said...

She's struggling. He's finally decided he WANTS covered!

NatureNut said...

OH my gosH!! Heard storm hit nest. Belle stepped on Palmer's footsie trying to cover him/her.

Mauley said...

Lynn, grrrreat news. So thankful to God. Hi dear ones. Love you all Mauley

Mema Jo said...

Storm is almost here.... Was hoping you would keep it over there on your side of the mountain Lynn - Wanda - Margy - Dana!
Scampy (squirrel) ran up on the deck for some peanuts before the rain drops start.

paula eagleholic said...

Rain still but wind is calmer...

Heading home, cu later!

Mema Jo said...

Hi Mauley! How about our Lynn!
Prayer Power always helps!

hedgie said...

Seems to be over here now.

hedgie said...

Nest is calmer, too. Cam is back to pausing at 14 seconds...pooh!

hedgie said...

Thanks, Mauley!

Think it's time to rustle up some chow here. NO stringy stuff!! Think I'll wrap some dogs in crescent rolls. BBL.

Mema Jo said...

Well tonight there are 3 NEW TV shows on for me to watch....
Bones 8:00
CSI:Crime Scene Investigation 9:00
Mentalist 10:00

We haven't gotten any rain and the wind has calmed.. sky is even back to being lighter. After midnight it will
hit!

Mema Jo said...

Who is tending the nest?

Mema Jo said...

I remember you had that Shmoo once before Loretta. I love that little guy.

magpie said...

All the Momsters and Dadsters, Jo !

magpie said...

Hallelujah Hawaii, Lynn !!

Been scanning for the good news, found it and let out with a Yelp
xox Grateful Prayers...

Good Afternoon everyone

magpie said...

Mits
Read with glee the news about the Ospreys at both the Finland cams, I think read that right...
Thank You ! I knew you would be on top of the sightings ☺

magpie said...

just passing through...

I was wondering who was having spaghetti for supper Paula, got the update now ☺
missed the chowing down at the nest

Best wishes for a good evening, all
xoxo TTFN ♥

Oh, Tomorrow is RED FRIDAY

Mema Jo said...

Hi Margy!

Well Palmer almost blew away a while ago - Would have if Belle hadn't sat right down on that little eaglet.

As you read back - you'll see that Norma is good and well - just busy.

Mema Jo said...

Headed to the table for dinner...

BBILW

Lolly said...

Happy Dance Happy Dance Happy Dance Yay!!! Lynn!!!! So happy for you! Wahoo!

Sad about the eagle, but maybe he will recover. Probably weak from lack of food as well.

magpie said...

Yes, thank you Jo ..sorry about my manners, kind of on the fly here...
Miss the Norma Morning Sunshine ☼

I miss everyone we don't see for awhile ...♥

glad she is going to have some family and poochy time

Hope Megan's Flower and Plant Production will make it through the weather okay.

Thanks for the weather report, Mits, though it looks dicey :(
xo

Lolly said...

Read the blog quickly. Looks like a lot of you and the nest had bad weather this afternoon. We have had beautiful weather today, sunny and a high 70. Can not ask for any better than that.

Checking cams now...have a meeting at church this evening.

Strange to see Palmer all alone. It startled me at first as he blends in with the nest.

Lolly said...

Nice fresh fish in the nest and they eat at an old dead questionable carcass?

Costume Lady said...

I scanned the blog to see if there had been any word from Lynn....
HORAAAAY!!!!!! ((((LYNN)))))

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Palmer is getting covered up with fluff!

Costume Lady said...

It looks like the rain is over for now. Sounded like a tornado coming through! Glad I didn't plant my new flower plants...would probably have blown away!

Gene and I took the Afternoon Off...went to Southern States in Ranson and bought some bird seed, suet cakes, mulch (is there ever an end to buying mulch?) and some materials to put a fence OVER the top of GG's garden to keep the deer out. She worried herself nearly to death last year...Gene had built a fence around her garden and the deer still got in, put netting over her veggie plants and they still got to the plants. So, we'll see what happens with this new idea:)
It was so good to get out on this beautiful Spring day...so many colorful flowers and trees blooming...God's gift to us after sending us all that SNOW;)

Lolly said...

Jo, pardon me, I know you LOVE owls, but baby owls are funny! Been watching Molly and McGee's owlets. They are so homely, they are funny! Sitting here laughing.

Costume Lady said...

Maybe drying him off, Sharon?

Lolly said...

Help, Palmer has been buried in fluff!

hedgie said...

Palmer is all wrapped in fluff!! Cute! If you don't see him move, you don't realize he's there!!

hedgie said...

Thanks, Margy, Lolly and Wanda!

I don't think he's real happy being shrouded like that. Let me outta here!!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I can't get the live feed??

Lolly said...

I have lost my live feed as well. Grrrrr!

Lolly said...

Sharon, I dreamed about you and TRAIN last night. lol Do not know where that came from...but I did.☺

Lynne2 said...

me neither Sharon....ssshhhhh, I'm not really here, I'm vacuuming the steps.

In case anyone missed Palmer's climb to the top of Mount Palmer this morning and a few other cute shots are on my blg.

Storm missed us this time but looks to hit us for sure around midnight here too.

Mema Jo said...

I agree about the homely looking little barn owls! I think that is why I like them. Also the little burrowing owls are so inquisitive looking.
Now the GHO has the most beautiful featherd face. Really do love them.

stronghunter said...

Hi,

No live feed here, either.

Mema Jo said...

Hi Shirley
Hope your day went well
Tomorrow is Friday!

Mema Jo said...

Both Mom & Dad in the nest with Palmer

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Eagle Friends,

YIPPEE!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS, LYNN!!!
I'm out here in SoCal doing a VICTORY DANCE with you! Thank GOD!!!!!!!
Couldn't be happier for you!

Slept in late today, and have been playing catch-up ever since. Just about to eat an early dinner and run to school. Should be able to come home early; only have a few definitions to find and print out, and I'll be done for the week.

Can't seem to get the live feed to work, so will have to try later. Keep an eye on Palmer for me on the still cam, OK? Hope the little rascal doesn't get so close to the edge of his/her nest! Gives me heart failure! Will talk to you later tonight once I'm back to my roost. Have a good evening! :o]

stronghunter said...

Hi Jo,
Things went reasonably well today. Right now, it is storming here. I could disappear at any time. Wind, rain, lightning, thunder!

stronghunter said...

Oh Lynn, what good news! I am happy dancing for you.

Mema Jo said...

I am having difficult getting the MN Bound Owl cam opened. I so want to be there at 8:45 this evening to see if there are still 2 eggs or maybe little fluffy owletts. I was watching earlier today but she never left the nest.

Mema Jo said...

Shirley - anymore Indirect Objects in the hallways?

hedgie said...

Thanks, Andy and Shirley!
Cam working okay for me.

hedgie said...

LOL, Shirley....I liked that story!
Always got so irritated with my girls' teachers who only cared about the subject they were teaching. Never marked down for spelling or grammatical areas in other subjects!!

wvgal_dana said...

JO my tv schedule is the same as yours.

I'm going to the counch with Little Man. So he can watch tv lol

Lolly said...

I am off to chuch.

BBL

Mema Jo said...

If anyone wonders where exactly Lolly is headed let me fill you in.......
CHURCH MEETING

Mema Jo said...

I still can't get my Momma GHO cam up
:<( :<( I want to see what is under her in the nest............


I guess I am quickly folding some towels fresh from the dryer and then
settle down for my shows.

Hope they are good ones!

paula eagleholic said...

Raining our nest, trying to cover up a chirping Palmer...guess he doesn't want to get wet!

stronghunter said...

Jo, I stopped by and asked if he wanted to discuss indirect objects, and we did. Then he brought up gerunds. Said he didn't really know much about them. They're verbal nouns ending in "ing." The grammar continues!

Gerund: Running is good exercise. Running is usually a verb, but in this sentence it is a noun.

stronghunter said...

So now I am sure everyone is excited about grammar.

hedgie said...

Storming here again. Temp has really fallen! Down to 62º.

paula eagleholic said...

Has anyone checked on Noah? I haven't been able to check on him the last 2 days...been to busy.

hedgie said...

Sure we are, Shirley! Just don't grade us on it!!

magpie said...

I love grammar things, Shirley...
nothing like a dangling participle every now and then !

second round of rain coming through, pretty bold cold front behind it !

magpie said...

here's an example of one of those:

After being whipped fiercely, the cook boiled the egg.

I didn't make that up

magpie said...

WVU head basketball coach is in Fayette County with the mining families

magpie said...

Our mom had us kids run our essays through here, she was a tough grammar screen !
learned a lot from her

I have only had time to check our nest Paula today...

paula eagleholic said...

I didn't know that term, Shirley. You learn something new every day (old stuff that you probably learned a long time ago and forgot counts). Yes, no grades please.

stronghunter said...

Poor cook!

magpie said...

got a few hours off from work , going in soon, hope this little rain squall is done before I leave

Prayers for the enormous needs we write about,
and grateful prayers for gifts given

See you on Red Friday sometime
God Bless Us, Every One
xo ☺ ♥

stronghunter said...

Don't worry, I get my fill of grading. I have no desire to do any more. I am not a threat in that respect.

Have had to get used to having my gradebook published for everyone to look at--parents, teachers, administrators. All they have to do is click and look. (Of course parents can only see their own child's grades.)

stronghunter said...

My honors seniors were almost falling asleep today for Act IV of Macbeth. Tomorrow, I am going to switch things around on them They will have to present Act V and I will watch.

I will have to write out that plan before Block 2 tomorrow. Will let you know how that goes.

Something happens to seniors this time of the year.

magpie said...

oh, forgot
Could see ISS and Discovery docked hereabouts in the morning

ISS Flyovers

don't think we'll see Venus and Mercury together tonight here

xo TTFN

stronghunter said...

Pretty avatar, Paula.

stronghunter said...

Must go do some chores. BBL.

magpie said...

"docked"...adjective, gerundive,
participle?

Hang on little Royal Family, storms and rain should be over by morning ☼

paula eagleholic said...

Here's another story on the shot bald eagle that I think Lynne posted. Gives the name of the group that is helping the eagle.

I see lots of these stories, most are found dead. This one was lucky to be found.

Shot Bald Eagle

paula eagleholic said...

Thanks, Shirley, snagged it off the web somewhere...then I realized Lynn has cherry blossoms on her avatar too!

paula eagleholic said...

They have the website posted in that article, poor folks their eagle cage collapsed.

glo said...

from MagpieWVU head basketball coach is in Fayette County with the mining families

Now that is cool. I love that someone very special to WV is actually there with some very special very much traumatized group of people. He can't change anything for them but his coming alongside will speak volumes to their hearts.

hedgie said...

Thanks for head-up on the ISS/Shuttle viewing, Margy. I forgot to look this week. (Nothing last week!) Will set my alarm.

Oh, Paula, that sounds bad....

paula eagleholic said...

They have a bunch of neat pics there too of animals they have cared for, click on photos on the top and then on one of the images...they have a slideshow.

http://www.wildcareoklahoma.org/

paula eagleholic said...

How about some good eagle news?

Eagles in Philly

paula eagleholic said...

Palmer trying his best to stay under Belle, she's digging, he's scootching....now big wing flaps

Raining here too

paula eagleholic said...

Tenting now.

stronghunter said...

Participle, I think off the top of my head, Margy. Modifies ISS and Discovery.

Some more rain here.

Got the dishwasher loaded and running.

stronghunter said...

I see the tenting. I hope the weather isn't going to be too bad for them tonight.

paula eagleholic said...

copied from another forum

Posted on the WRCV site for the Norfolk triplets is this announcement for those who can never EVER have enough eagle educateshun

I have had numerous requests to hold one of my NBG bald eagle classes online for those unable to travel to Norfolk. I will do so on Monday April 12 from noon to 1:00pm. I encourage folks to read the list of terms I posted on the eaglenest.blogs.wm.edu site on April 5. These are terms I used in my NBG class on April 3. I will focus on eagle basic and what you have been seeing and will see in the nest in the next few weeks.
by Reese F Lukei Jr

paula eagleholic said...

From Ken at snowmancam.com on his battle over the bird feeders...the state thought he was using bird feeders to bait for deer....

I just received the judge's decision. She has dismissed the charges against me, finding that the deer feeding ban is unconstitutional as over broad and vague. The procecutor has the right to appeal the decision. I pray the procecutor decides to do the right thing and let this go.

stronghunter said...

Going to take my grammar books and crawl into bed. See you tomorrow. Good night and God bless.

stronghunter said...

It just doesn't make sense to me to ban bird feeders.

hedgie said...

Well, Jo, it didn't say "to be continued" but we KNOW that's not the end of the story!! Geesh!

Mema Jo said...

I just read the TV listings and it said NOTHING about part 1 & part 2.
We sure know how to pick them NOT

Mema Jo said...

Well One more to go!
Wishing us luck for a story with a conclusion

hedgie said...

Paula, you are a true fountain of info tonight!! Sure hope that Philly doesn't think they need to destroy any nest near the airport!

Neat about the online presentation on the 12th!!

Night-night, Shirley!

paula eagleholic said...

PH chicks are looking good this year...hope everything goes well there, enough tragedy at that nest in the past couple of years.

paula eagleholic said...

I agree Shirley, and don't see how he could be baiting deer with bird feeders, they are put up high, but the deer do still get to them was the issue, and cause he has the cam, they assumed he put them up for the deer...not. Hope they leave him alone and go after real bad guys!

hedgie said...

OMG---heart failure. Felt something crawling on my head--STINKBUG! Yuck, gross, sickening.

hedgie said...

Tomorrow is Dr. Lynn Rogers' birthday!

NatureNut said...

Wow, I hear peepers and it looks like fish are swimming in the nest!
Was out doing yard work & planting pansies earlier, trying to beat the storm. It came a lot later than we thought & when rain almost ended, power went out a couple times.
News just said the methane levels are dropping at the coal mine & they may get rescuers in tonight.

Some little chirps while Belle was flapping her wings. Then I saw 2 little wings flap!!

Mema Jo said...

Fluffed my bed pillow before getting in bed ---- STINK BUG

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH !

hedgie said...

Well, at least the judge was smart....but not necessarily in his corner!! Guess I could be in trouble here, too. Just don't understand how it can be considered baiting when I'm not killing anything!!! I can't help it if EVERYTHING likes corn! Squirrels, deer, turkey, coons, birds, bear.......

NatureNut said...

That's right--Congrats to Andy for Acing & to Lynn for passing real important test!!!

Lynn, My daughter has a big tube bird feeder in middle of her backyard & the deer can barely reach it w/their noses. Sometimes they've knocked it on the ground due to a squirrel conspiracy! Hope she doesn't get arrested.

NatureNut said...

Paula, Thx for the great Norfolk info. Just wrote it on calendar & I don't have an appt. that day!!!!☺

Getting late in the day, so to all hitting the hay, Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)

Mema Jo said...

Gracie may need to change her mind!

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone,
Home from school--watched the Wild Kingdom show about Lynn Rogers when I got home. Fantastic story, but sad about the bears that died or were killed. Really respect what Lynn Rogers is doing for bear research, though. Amazing man.

Paula, thanks for the link to the story about the eagle that got shot. Hope it's doing better by now.

Shirley, I had practically forgotten about gerunds and such, until I went back to school. Need to know what I'm doing grammar-wise now.

Well, need to do some studying, then watch my TV shows. Leaving the night light and porch light on, and the eye scanner is enabled. Prayers being said for everyone, especially Chrissy and her family. (((GIANT HUGS)))!!
Sleep tight, and will talk to you in the morning. Good night! God bless!
Love all you guys. :o]

paula eagleholic said...

Heading to bed, see ya in the a.m.

Hugs to all ♥

Lolly said...

What???? You think folks were confused and did not know where I was going when I said I was going to "chuch". Doesn't everyone go to 'chuch". lol

Paula, thanks for the info on the Philly eagle. I loved the picture. Those little heads peeking out of the nest is so cute!

Lolly said...

Jack is watching hockey. Mike Madano is playing probably his last home game. He was honored with an ovation and he cried. I got tears in my eyes. He is everyone's favorite player, and so nice looking. Oh, and he lives on Michael's street, two blocks down. I must go walking that way some day.

Lolly said...

Off to pop some popcorn and make a G&T!

hedgie said...

Hope that the rain washing away the pollen will give Megan an easier day tomorrow.

hedgie said...

LOL, Lolly wants to hobnob with the rich and famous!!!

Jo, Grace is being selfish!

Wow...Nats won a game. Can't beleive it.
