Thanks for the new thread Steve. Happy Sunday.

FuzzleMT said...

Well, not only do I see an eagle in the nest I SEE AN EGG - way to go Lib and Belle!

Bill said...

Thought I'd check in on our birds and to my suprize,,,it says that there's an egg!!!!! I'll be watching again this year for sure,hope the weather ccporates this year

WV sUSAn said...

Isnt is great Fuzzie? Laid around 6:15p yesterday.

WV sUSAn said...

So far, so good on the weather Bill. Fingers crossed.

Bill said...

This makes my fourth year,there's alot of folks here in Elkins keeping tabs on this nest

WV sUSAn said...

Lib is sure working on that egg

FuzzleMT said...

I know - I had the nest site up all day because I knew it was close. I was just going to close the site about 7:00 because it was getting dark and noticed Belle in the nest, but with a lot of white feathers showing so I came to the blog. Had I not turned down the sound, I would have heard her chirping and would have been watching - ah well. An egg this year is good news. YAY!!!!!

WV sUSAn said...

Ooops Sorry. Shd have said Fuzzle.

WV sUSAn said...

I think she just chirped once, the little sneakster.

stronghunter said...

Good morning,

Still waiting for the live cam. My computer is very slow. I have not yet seen the egg. I could not see it last night and so far no go this morning.

WV sUSAn said...

Lib off the egg, Belle flew in and Lib flew out.

floralgirl said...

Belle is back.
I could not get the cam open this morning with Firefox. Just a blank screen. Opened it on internet explorer. Later I tried again on firefox and it opened. So keep trying.

WV sUSAn said...

Ok honey it's your turn now. There ya go.

WV sUSAn said...

Yes just keep trying Strong. Now there's our girl that fills the nest bowl very nicely.

WV sUSAn said...

Libs back

WV sUSAn said...

Is Lib wanting back on the egg?

FuzzleMT said...

HOPE EVERYONE IS GETTING A GOOD LOOK AT BOTH BELLE AND LIB AND BABY EGG RIGHT NOW -

WV sUSAn said...

And Belle flew.

WV sUSAn said...

Any time now Lib. Now get on that egg!

Lolly said...

Good morning everyone! I have been watching and catching up on the blog. Opened the cam with Belle standing and looking at the egg. "Well, just look at that cute egg."I am sure that is what she was thinking. Then saw Lib fly in with a stick. Then saw the whole family before Belle flew off.

Now come on Lib, cover that egg!

Lolly said...

Nice to see sunshine on the nest.

WV sUSAn said...

Finally Libs on the egg. Five minutes off was making me anxious.

Lolly said...

I am going to read the paper now, but will have the cam up and be watching.

Have a great Sunday!

magpie said...

Good Morning Eagle Pals...and a lot of you there are !

Nice avatar Megan !


and

Happy Birthday to Sandra....
Have a Glorious One! We are ☺

floralgirl said...

It's 38° here, and partly sunny, they will let the egg get some air occasionally when it is warm out.

magpie said...

and Steve

Thanks for the New Sunday Thread !

Congratulations to you and all your NCTC Staff....!

And thanks for making it possible for us to watch and enjoy this nest !
xo

paula eagleholic said...

Wow, lots of activity this morning, providing everyone with a nice look at that wonderful egg!

WV sUSAn said...

Hi Lolly. Lots of great egg views today.

magpie said...

I'm going to go wiggle wiggle in my nest....been up all night

Best wishes for a good day everyone...got to catch some z's here

xo ☺

hedgie said...

Wanda said:

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
Belle has wiggled so much this morning that she has probably worn all the feathers off of her tummy:)
I got a good look at the Joy-Boo egg...got a photo. Will see if its the same as Lynn's.

I so loved the name Boo for our first chick (it will have such meaning for us, Like Palmer), but,
as Paula said, JOY would be sweet too. Maybe when Paula is not so heartbroken from her loss, she will re-think the name Boo. We, of course will follow her wishes!


HAVE A BLESSED SUNDAY♥

Sunday, February 06, 2011 9:01:00 AM

I said:Wow...I am lucky today. Had just gathered up trash and was getting ready to skate out to get papers and put trash out....secretly hoping that Bill would show up (he cut me a board for bottom of downstairs crate) a nd VOILA!! He here came. So I am safe for another day!! Can't tell you how much ice scares me!

Sunday, February 06, 2011 9:19:00 AM

And I also added another pic to album!

WV sUSAn said...

Megan, I didn't realize it's that warm at the nest. That makes sense.

paula eagleholic said...

☺☺ ♫♫ Happy Birthday, Sandra!! ♫♫ ☺☺

hedgie said...

Welcome back, FuzzleMA and Bill!! Hope all is good in your worlds.

stronghunter said...

After all kinds of messing around, I am able to get the live cam. Could not get IE. Says it might be blocked by a firewall. That is odd. So I tried to get Google Chrome, but that did not work. I tried Firefox again and it worked this time.

I think I will ask for help with IE when I get to work on Monday.

hedgie said...

Bill, nice to hear that lots of Elkiners are watching!!

Sleep tight, Margy.

Shirley, check out album for pics of eggbert!!

paula eagleholic said...

Looks like Lib is going to sit a spell :)

WV sUSAn said...

Glad you got your cam on, Shirley. You can't miss this action!

stronghunter said...

I will do that, Lynn.

Oh my, Kathryn is going through Hunter's book bag. Finding some yucky things there. Some unidentifiable.

I want to see it on the live cam, too. Watching and waiting.

stronghunter said...

Kathryn thought she was going to get Hunter started on his school project this weekend, but, of course, he did not bring his homework folder home because he did not have homework due Monday.

Ah, the joys of motherhood.

stronghunter said...

Somebody named Shirley is on the blog under the live cam. It is another Shirley. Interesting.

hedgie said...

Pannekuchens are on the griddle. Anyone coming? Blueberry!!

stronghunter said...

Was reading the other blog. Now I have lost the picture again. Wonder if there is a connection?

FuzzleMT said...

Thanks, Lynn/Hedgie - I live NW of Boston so my world involves a lot of snow - thick icicles hanging down 10 ft from the roof - knock 'em down, sun comes out and icicles again. Wouldn't be so bad if I was further out in the country where it is pretty, but within the city limits I see big dirty "plow mountains." At least the nest is sweet serenity -

stronghunter said...

Sounds yummy, Lynn! Not sure I can make it while they are still hot.

stronghunter said...

Got the picture back.

hedgie said...

Fuzzle.....is it Irene??.....you are getting the awful stuff that we have dodged. GOod for us (esp. after last year) but bad for you.

stronghunter said...

Is that still Lib on the nest?

hedgie said...

Shirley, maybe it's the "too many viewers" thing...:(

WV sUSAn said...

That sounds yummy Lynn. Mmmmmm booberries.

paula eagleholic said...

Yup, that's Lib on the nest.

stronghunter said...

Maybe so, Lynn. We might have a lot of viewers this morning.

stronghunter said...

Your area has had quite a winter, Fuzzle.

Mema Jo said...

Good morning everyone! What a wonderful world it is! Our Royal Eagle couple are such experts at 'egg care'.
So good to see all you folks checking in and better yet that you are remembered from years past. Hi Bill and FuzzleMA -

glo said...

Well I just posted my Good morning 2 Blogs ago. No wonder I have decided to not do too much today except enjoy home, and watch NCTC. Nothing I said was important enough to repeat except Good Morning :-)

FuzzleMT said...

Hello to all - yeah, Lynn, quite a winter for the NE - but you know, I really thought the NE was all about snow and this is the most I've seen since I moved here about 15 years ago! GLAD it's US though and not the nest - broke my heart to see Belle and Lib last year losing the eggs.

Lolly said...

Nice to see sunshine at NBG, too. It is time for them to have egg #2.
I do not see it mentioned. Anyone know?

Mema Jo said...

My live feed which I bring up on IE
was very speedy coming up. And there is our LIB!

Lolly said...

Okay, going by yesterdays discussion of the NBG eagels, I would say that is the male sitting on the nest. Am I right?

WV sUSAn said...

I've been to shower and back and, do my eyes deceive me?? Lib still on the nest. Awesome!

WV sUSAn said...

Chittering in the den. Ahhhh

Mema Jo said...

Happy Birthday to Sandra - One of our First Eaglet Momsters!! Hope your day is special and that the year ahead is good to you

Lolly said...

Time to get ready for church! Hold down the fort while I am gone!

BBL

Geula said...

having trouble singing in...

Geula said...

HAD trouble signing in...now I'm in here.....don't EVER want to leave!

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning from over here, Geula!


I am heading out very soon...
I feel assured that things at the nest
are well taken care of.......

BBL

paula eagleholic said...

Lib up

paula eagleholic said...

Good morning, Geula, glad you could join us!

Geula said...

THERE IT IS! I see the egg! YAY!!

WV sUSAn said...

Looks like Lib is givig the egg some air.

Bird Girl said...

Yay! So happy to see an egg, and such a great nest cup, too! I wonder how many eggs we'll have this year....I say 3!

I know the Superbowl is today, though not something I'm personally interested in...regardless, I hope everyone has a great day, football or no!

stronghunter said...

I see it! Got a picture, too!!

stronghunter said...

Looks very secure down in the cup.

paula eagleholic said...

And I forgot to say Hi to Bill....welcome back...and Fuzzle too.

I say 3 eggs as well!

WV sUSAn said...

Hi Geula. So nice to see you.

stronghunter said...

Three sounds great. I would really enjoy seeing multiple eaglets this season. Three little ones would be fun.

stronghunter said...

Welcome, Geula, Bill, and Fuzzle. It is always nice to see all of you.

Geula said...

Good to be here with you Momsters and Dadsters...during the rest of the year I follow the Momsters group but come the laying season I come back here!

Should I tell that eagle to sit back down on the eggy?

WV sUSAn said...

Yes please, Geula. Gotta run. BBL

stronghunter said...

Do you think he would listen to you, Geula? I expect he has a mind of his own.

Geula said...

Remind me, dearies, what to press after I refresh,to get back to the bottoms without scrolling

stronghunter said...

I bet he is looking for Belle to give him a break. Probably thinks she will come sooner when he sees the egg is exposed.

paula eagleholic said...

Geula, press the "end" button...or use the "page down" button. You have to click on the blog page outside of the comment box for that to work.

Geula said...

No eaglet has EVER toppled out of the nest when I tell them to be careful when they get to the edge to poop shoot...I have POWERS! They LISTEN to me! LOL!

stronghunter said...

I don't know, Geula. I just grab the little thingy on the right and drag it up or down when I want to move around.

paula eagleholic said...

Lib up on the back of the nest, and then off to the right.

paula eagleholic said...

I see an eagle shadow above the nest on the left.

Aha, sounds of an eagle.

paula eagleholic said...

Sounds like HP in the tree....shaking, LOL

stronghunter said...

Well, this guy just took off. And then I saw a shadow cross the nest. And then wings as there was another flyover.

stronghunter said...

hedgie said...

MT nest----shadow flew over. Hope it was Lib or Belle's shadow. And again. Protect that egg!1 It's only 37° here.....

paula eagleholic said...

Belle is back

stronghunter said...

I think someone landed above and shook the tree a bit.

I expect that is Belle.

stronghunter said...

Maybe it was hp that shook the tree!

stronghunter said...

Egg roll.

hedgie said...

Egg roll. Flugging the flugg.

stronghunter said...

More egg business.

Wiggle, wiggle.

hedgie said...

Bet some of our occassional visitors wonder about our crazy words!! Bill, Fuzzle-----flugg is our new word for fluff, thanks to a Momster typo!!

Geula said...

There was a changeover, an egg turn, a little house arranging and the cute little wiggle after sitting down on the egg...I love that wiggle!

hedgie said...

Hi, Geula! GOod to see you. How's everything in Israel? Hope no unrest as in Egypt.
Thanks for asking that question and Paula for answering----I had forgotten, too!!

Geula said...

All is well here, no revolutions or overthrows or other types of mass domestic violence...just the usual mafia shootouts!

Lolly said...

roflmbo You're welcome! And, I might add I like "flugging the flugg"!

I am ready to leave for church. Just took another peek in.

See ya! Oh, and hi and bye Guela!

Lolly said...

Oh, and thank you Guela and Paula. Did not know about the pg dn or end. Learn something new every day!

NatureNut said...

Wow, what great New Thread pics!

Happy Sunday to Everyone!!
Should go to work for a couple hours---BBL

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Hello everybody in eagle land!

kickngbird said...

Up for a shift, not much of a roll, though

FuzzleMT said...

Enjoy the eagle show, everyone! Getting ready to go to daughter's for Super Bowl - live in Patriots country, but a STEELER girl at heart - sorry NE bloggers, but I'm from Pittsburgh and proud of it - where is my 'terrible towel?"

hedgie said...

I was going to root for the Pittsbay Sackers today, but changed my mind. I'll root for the Greenburgh Peelers instead!

FuzzleMT said...

Oh, Lynn, that is TOO funny - guess your team will win!!

paula eagleholic said...

LOL, Lynn.

I am going to root for the Steelers...

paula eagleholic said...

Lots of fish at Jordan lake today.. I think I heard the eldest chick is 3 wks old today

paula eagleholic said...

Belle did an egg roll a couple of minutes ago

I finally got out of the PJ's I'd had on since yesterday, and took Nugz in the car with me for a quick ride to the store. Had my breakfast, now I have to go shower and get some food ready for the game...

BBL

paula eagleholic said...

Lib just arrived with fluff

paula eagleholic said...

Belle off to the right

magpie said...

God Bless You Paula...
Hope your day is a great one with family and friends.

Hello Eagle Pals...

I did not notice two pictures on the new thread for today, but I do now !! there is a picture of the nest with a lone egg, no eagles....

maybe I missed that earlier...

paula eagleholic said...

Lib incubating

WV sUSAn said...

Hi everybody. What a beautiful sunny day at the nest.

WV sUSAn said...

Good to see Lib all settled in and comfy. He has to bring in more flugg to fill in the space around him in the bowl.

wvgal_dana said...

Morning ALL so that way I won't miss anyone.

So Belle is out to lunch at the diner huh?

Lib is on our egg.

Paula have a great fun time.

I just want to stay away for the whole game...maybe I'll set some alarm clocks around me for different times in case I fall asleep lol

Fluff = flugg

Shirley when is Hunter's assignment due?

Steve did a nice job putting those pictures on...thanks Steve.

Nice to see Bill from Elkins, FuzzleMa
and I KNEW GEULA WOULD SHOW UP she has to keep them babies in the nest. (:

Well Sandra it almost got laid on your birthday...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO A VERY VERY SPECIAL LADY...SANDRA (:

hedgie said...

Paula, jammie days can be comforting. What are you taking for the party? Can Nugz go, too?

Margy, there WAS only ONE pic there when we first came to new thread! Steve snuck one in.

Diane said...

Yay!! Very exciting. I'll be watching. ;-)

magpie said...

Yeah Lynn...he does that sometimes....
I had signed off so when signing on again is when I noticed it !

Okay, headed out to the grandson's...

Best wishes to everyone, for a great, Eagle-Watching and whatever else is on your dance cards today day!

Enjoy your time with James Margy (:

stronghunter said...

Dana, Hunter said the assignment is due Feb. 14.

hedgie said...

Margy, are you off tonight? Hope so!
Hi, Diane and Dana!

WV sUSAn said...

Diane. I just love your avatar. What a beautiful picture.

wvgal_dana said...

Well thank goodness he has time Shirley.

Don't know if you all remember Danielle that help with Sandara. At the hospital with therapy.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIELLE

Lolly said...

TCU band and show girls perform today in the pre game show in the Super Bowl. I am cheering for them. They perform at 4:52 CST.

kickngbird said...

Up and turn, little roll, little wiggle, little rearranging of fluff

stronghunter said...

Yes,

He has books and has done some work. Kathryn likes to get on these assignments on the weekends. Hunter is not so conscientious. He is a normal kid.

Kathryn is just getting payback!! I had to deal with her homework and projects a few years ago.

stronghunter said...

That was supposed to be "Yes, Dana."

paula eagleholic said...

Lynn, I thought about bringing Nugz, but there are going to be a lot of people there...and house not real big. And not sure I want to deal with the "Where's Boo" question from the gkids today.

I am making a chicken and broccoli holiday wreath from Pampered Chef. Will put recipe and pics on my blog...think ya'll will like this recipe.

paula eagleholic said...

If you can't read the recipe, I can email it.

paula eagleholic said...

Dana, Danelle's birthday is on March 6th.

paula eagleholic said...

Fluff fluff, wiggle wiggle

Lolly said...

Looks really yummy and can read the recipe. You have to click on it to enlarge it. In the picture....you have not baked it yet. Right?

hedgie said...

Things have been going fairly well with Mai today.

hedgie said...

Understand, Paula. How is Nugz acting?

I will pass on your recipe! Don't like that green stuff!!!

hedgie said...

But it does LOOK pretty!!!

Lolly said...

Oh, that green stuff is good, Lynn!

Glad Mai has been good today.

stronghunter said...

Good, Lynn. I happy for you and Mai.



Kathryn rescued the chinchillas and took them directly to a rescue person who can take care of them. She did not even bring them here, which is a very good thing.

They were living in horrible conditions. The woman she took them to threw away the cage and all of the equipment. We would have not had anything to put them in if we had done that.

They were not getting proper food and were living in filth. They were very eager to eat and roll in a sand bath. (That's how chinchillas bathe.) These poor critters wanted to bathe at the same time.

Since they are male and female, it is likely that the female is pregnant. Not good. There has not been proper nutrition.

Susan said it is a good thing she did not pick them up because she would have been tempted to throw a brick at the people who let them live this way.

hedgie said...

Egg showing!!

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Paula by the way receipe just the name of it sounds yummy..

Moving branches after fly in.

wvgal_dana said...

Well maybe Danielle needed a pick me upper for the day lol

stronghunter said...

Both in the nest.

stronghunter said...

Looks like they are having a discussion.

wvgal_dana said...

Are red bell peppers hot?

Looks yummy you are making me hungry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Oh, forgot to add, I don't add the bell peppers. And yes, that is uncooked.

Lynn, Nugz seems pretty good today. The ride helped, and played some ball.

wvgal_dana said...

Glad Nuzg is doing well...I think you have made the right decision. You need not all the questions from the little ones. You still need some time. (((((HUGS))))) Go and enjoy !! ( :

paula eagleholic said...

Heading out to John and Ajay's.

Wishing everyone a wonderful afternoon and evening...

stronghunter said...

Bye, Paula. Enjoy your family.

Lolly said...

May be laying another egg at NBG!

BEagle said...

Hi Eagle fans!

Looks like Lib on the nest.

Red bell peppers are not hot. They are very sweet and yummy. Red peppers are green peppers turned ripe.

I saw a documentary on chinchillas and they are very sensitive to cold and dirty circumstances. They don't do well in those conditions. It is nice that Kathryn rescued them.

The recipe looks very delicious Paula. Gotta try it. Have a very nice evening.

BEagle said...

Who to rout (route? root?) for tonight.

I like the Packers, my nephew has a thing for the Steelers. Decisions are tough at times.

I will root for both. : )

Mema Jo said...

I've returned... Beautiful day out there. Snow from the fields is melting down into the roads. Hope it doesn't freeze up tonight!

I need to place my feet up

BBILW

hedgie said...

NBG may have egg #2!!!!

BEagle said...

NBG is still working according to the chat monitor. All on the chat think we will see one soon.

BEagle said...

She is still standing at nbg

Lolly said...

It looks like the NBg eagle is still working on it.

Mema Jo said...

4:02pm Congowingo thinks 2nd egg is here at NBG

BEagle said...

If an eagle can have a grimace, SHE DOES!

Her mate is right next to her.

Lolly said...

She needs to squirm and move like Belle. LOL

Lolly said...

Well, maybe her recovery takes a while. ☺

BEagle said...

Are you sure MemaJo? Congowings is still waiting according to chat.

BEagle said...

She is closing her eyes for this one. Must be a female coming through. lol

Mema Jo said...

Both NBG eagles in the nest.......

BEagle said...

I think she just released and looks more calm now. She must be adjusting.

Mema Jo said...

BEagle I said he 'thinks'
Can't be certain until it is seen.

Keep watching........

BEagle said...

She's been looking down.

BEagle said...

Getting ready to move I think

BEagle said...

NOW. She is wiggling!!!

BEagle said...

My apologies MemaJo.

Lolly said...

She is looking in the egg cup! I think we have 2 now at NBG!

Mema Jo said...

Can anyone see any egg(s)

BEagle said...

She is not moving. She shifted a short while ago but is not moving. She is having a difficult time I think.

Mema Jo said...

Once an egg is laid the eagle usually stands for a while to let the egg
firm up.......
I think there is already 2 little
Rebel eggs........

BEagle said...

The male keeps checking too!

Lolly said...

She has certainly made it look hard. Find myself holding my breath and wanting to push. LOL

Lolly said...

I saw two!!!!!!!!

Lolly said...

Dad just left. There saw it again. Two fantastic eagle eggs at NBG!

BEagle said...

I think it's a keeper! I haven't seen the egg yet but the male just flew off.

BEagle said...

OH! You saw two Lolly? Super!!

BEagle said...

Whew.

Lolly said...

Congratulations NBG!

hedgie said...

Egg #2 almost certainly there....she just won't turn the right way for it to show clearly. Think I saw it a couple of times and now she has settled into cup and is mantled a bit. Congrats NBG!

Lolly said...

I feel like I have been laboring. LOL Watched this all they way through. Not for sure when the second egg arrived, but I saw 2 a couple of times before she wiggle waggled down.

BEagle said...

((hug)) MemaJo.

Mema Jo said...

I hope the male flew off to get some sushi for her. That seemed like a long drawn out affair.
The moderators also saw two eggs
Good Eye Lolly!
Whew! is so right BEagle!

BEagle said...

One of the moderators said she did the same last year. Took a long time on the second.

Mema Jo said...

Could be tomorrow or the next day we will need to go through the same thing again with Belle.........

My feet are going up - Never did make it last time I said it....

Lolly said...

Well, I hope Belle will be a little more cooperative for the second egg...lay that egg, Belle, in the bright day light. Would you please?

Lolly said...

I was really feeling for the NBG eagle. She really made it look hard. Bless her!

BEagle said...

Looks like Belle on there now.

BEagle said...

Aww. NBG mom is dozing. Pooped.

hedgie said...

finally....got my pic!!!!!!

Lolly said...

Wow, she just showed us a good view of two eggs.

hedgie said...

POSTED IT ON MY BLOG!
