Oh, Dana, so sorry to hear about Little Man. I know your feeling of loss, but also the relief to know that he's not in pain and that he's with his daddy surely comforts you. The house is bound to feel lonely and empty, but remember that he's always with you just as Ed is. (((HUGS)))

stronghunter said...

Wow! 2.5 ml of eye drops for Luna cost $118.00. If it saves her eyesight, it is well worth it.

Lynne2 said...

up again....maybe looking for just the right spot to lay another egg? NOPE. Down again.

I forgot to put the pic on the blob of the other eagle nest across the bay. I've put that picture in, but don't make a special trip back to see it cause you really can't tell what it is! We did see the eagle in THAT nest through the binos, though!

Lynne2 said...

Shirley, sorry Luna is ailing. what exactly is the eye problem that she has?

hedgie said...

Dana, also sorry about Aunt Anna Mae. May she also RIP.


I truly think that Hidey was the only successful hatch of 3 eggs.........remember that was the year of the gunshots......Grrrrrrrrr.

Lolly said...

Paula, Belle is not tucked. She was up. Your screen frozen.

Lolly said...

That last was a question. LOL

NatureNut said...

Dear Dana, So sorry for your loss of Little Man, but you did the right thing & now he & Ed are happy.
Paula, I didn't really read about Boo, but now I know he's over Rainbow Bridge w/ Little Man. So sorry for you too.

NatureNut said...

I always thought that we named Hidey that because most of the time an adult was standing in front of him & he was "hidden".

Lolly said...

My first year was the three. Never to forget the oldest, Pecking Pearl. LOL Then we had Middy (?) and Tiny. (?) So much fun to watch the interaction of the three. Two will be a new experience.

Lolly said...

I think we called him Hidey because for the longest time we could not see him. The egg cup was very deep and the parents were always in the way.

Lolly said...

Wow, this is my 4th year! My how time flies when you are having fun!

hedgie said...

Yep, Lolly, they kept Hidey well hidden for the longest time. His fellow egglets were non-viable......and I still stick to the theory that it WAS because of the fear that the gunshots put into Belle.

Shirley, what is the problem with Luna's eye???

FYI---the spelling of Ric(k) is one of those funny things......at work it was always spelled with a k; he signed it with a k. Now his wife and daughter write it without the k!

movin said...

pAIRS are working on nests at both WE and TH.

C(°ٿ°)D Jim

stronghunter said...

Luna lost her right eye to hereditary glaucoma. The doctor said that the other eye would also develop the same problem and provided her medication (pills) and a prescription (eye drops) to use in an emergency situation.

Tonight, Luna developed a very dilated pupil and was acting strangely (walking along the wall) and Kathryn called the doctor and used the medications. Luna's eye looks better now. We do not know if she will lose this eye. Doing what we can.

stronghunter said...

The medication is causing the eye to be much less dilated already. Kathryn has kept a close watch on Luna's eye ever since she had the previous problems.

hedgie said...

That's a shame, Shirley. How old is Luna? Hope the meds work and the eye can be saved.

stronghunter said...

Luna is almost 6 years old. We tried to find the breeders in Ohio to tell them about the problem, but haven't been able to connect with them.

Lynne2 said...

that's a shame Shirley, but you know what? Dogs seem to do really well, even if totally blind!

I think I'm heading to shower and bed. Got myself a cold and sore throat but I don't feel too bad. Just HATE not being able to breath through my nose!

Good night everyone...glad you liked my pictures. Prayers for all!

paula eagleholic said...

No, I didn't think my screen was frozen Lolly...I heard calling out while Belle had her head tucked...was watching the whole time. Then she got up and did the egg roll.

Lolly said...

Oh, ok! I was not watching but heard her and when I got there she was up. I do love being able to hear them.

Forgot to tell y'all....I got a dozen long stem red roses this evening from my Valentine. They certainly are pretty.

Belle is thinking about tucking. There she goes, all tucked!

Mema Jo said...

Finally a tucked head!

Lolly said...

I guess I will bake my Valentine something nice tomorrow. We are having a special dinner, vooking Veal Saltimbocca and having wine. Yep, going off the diet for Valentines.

We do not go out on Valentines. Do not like the crowds or the set menu on Valentines.

Lolly said...

I just realized we split a while back. Nobody said a thing!

Lynne2 said...

she's up

Lolly said...

Egg roll

paula eagleholic said...

Ah roses, how nice.

I hear calling but don't know it it's Lib or Belle.

Lynne2 said...

and back down

Mema Jo said...

The moonlight is making the nest beautiful.......

Lynne2 said...

Lolly, so nice you got roses! I know most gals love getting red roses! I personally have never been much on red roses. There are SO many other beautiful rose colors, and so many other beautiful flowers in general. And I think it's just sinful how the wholesalers and retails REALLY jack up the prices of them for V'day. Guys want to do a wonderful thing for their ladies and pay so much more on the holiday.

hedgie said...

Glo, left comments on your pics! Two I especially love!

Lynne2 said...

it's so cool how the shadow of the branch is moving so quickly across the nest! I think we will have a full moon on Thurs or Friday this week.

hedgie said...

Wow, Lolly.....florists doing deliveries on Sunday! Don't believe that would happen around here! Nice of Jack to do that....is it an annual thing for him?

Belle is awake, head not tucked and facing the cam. Light is great tonight.

Lynne2 said...

the 2 flower shops near me were both open today too!

hedgie said...

Lynne, hope your cold passes quickly.....you DON'T need to get down sick again the way you were before!!! Got Vicks???

Lynne2 said...

No, I don't Lynn, sure wish I had thought about that while I was a Wallyworld today. I'm slamming water, taking Tylenol and Aleve and Mucinex and my vitamins (not all at once!). Trying to stay on top of it.

Lolly said...

Another egg roll. Belle is having a hard time settling down this evening.

Lolly said...

No the roses are not an annual thing. Also, they were not delivered by the florist. They were handed to me by my valentine with a kiss.♥♥♥ He got them from the florist at the grocery store.

WV sUSAn said...

Belles chirping again.

Lolly said...

Belle is calling out. Wonder what is bothering her this evening?

Lynne2 said...

Cool Lolly! I love it when Steve comes home with flowers more than if they were to be delivered!

Heard Belle calling again. Very restless. I, too, wonder what's going on tonight. Still a teeney window of time for another egg....

Lolly said...

Just went and looked at Glo's pictures from yesterday. She has removed my favorite. Hmmmmm? Wonder why?

Lynn, you missed the best of her pics!

Lynne2 said...

which is why I am still here and not in the shower!!

Lynn, you have mail.

Well, I hate to leave, but need to get my self in gear....

PA Nana said...

Good evening eagle egg watchers.
Isn't this the most fun ever?

Dana, sorry to hear about your loss of LM.
Paula, sorry to hear about your Boo. It's so hard to lose a member of the family.

Glad to hear today was a good day for Lynn and Mai. May today be just the beginning.

Finally got the new printer installed. Really thought it was a goner. Not sure what I did but it worked. Now I can print Loretta's instructions for adding pix to my blog. Oh happy day!

Jim got his b-day present today. His birthday is not until later this month but since his visit to VA he's wanted a new cell phone... so that's what he got for himself and me. The phones were free but had to take a 2 yr. plan. Now have to learn how to use them. Droids; whatever that means.

Shirley, hope Luna's eye is okay.

Not sure, who I forgot to address here, but Harry's Law is on; must go watch. This is one of those good shows on the same time as another.

God bless everyone.

hedgie said...

Belle is still awake......

hedgie said...

Glo removed pics???

Lolly said...

Yes, she posted on facebook yesterday her pictures. I made two comments on one picture that I LOVED. It was amazing. Saw where you made comments tonight, but the picture I LOVED is not there. Same group of pics but that one is gone.

Lolly said...

I wonder if she removed it and plans to enter it in a contest?

hedgie said...

Diann, Harry's Laws tonight are repeats already!
Congrats on your Droid. I know it exists but have no idea what it's all about!!! Guess it's just another version of an iPhone.

Lolly, nice that Jack even went and picked out your posies!!!

hedgie said...

Guessing that Vicky has arrived at Glo's by now. They will probably gab the night away.

glo said...

Lolly LollY I will put that photo up on Glo's Glimpses when I do a new one. Possibly will be the new feature photo. I do love it and had Copyright with my name. Facebook did not show copyright, and has added a Download High Resolution to the way they show our photos. I don't mean to be selfish but I really don't want anyone and everyone to have access to all of my favorites. So YEP I removed it when I couldn't see the copyright and saw the new download option.

hedgie said...

Gonna head for the tub. Will check back in a little while.

Lolly said...

Thanks for explaining Glo. Thought I was loosing my mind for a sec. Oh, and I do LOVE that picture. All your pictures are good, but when I saw that one...my heart stopped. No way in this world to capture a shot like that! It speaks to me!!!!

magpie said...

Dana
sorry I missed when you were on earlier

God Bless You and Little Man
Not only has he crossed that Rainbow Bridge and met up with Ed, but he has also met up with many favorite pets from our folks here

Your dedication and love to Little Man, and your courage throughout his ailments, has been Heaven Sent
(( hugs and love to you ♥ ))

Lolly said...

Think I am going to slip off and do as Lynn...only shower and get comfy!

glo said...

Thanks Lolly You will see it again I promise. I really like it too. I do not copyright very many but I did that one.
Facebook comes with frustrations and more changes than they need too!!!

magpie said...

Shirley
I am sorry to read of Luna's eye problem, and surely hope the medicine and your and Kathryn's good lovin' can bring him back up to his normal self

magpie said...

Belle is up and just called out

paula eagleholic said...

Up and stretching wings, more calling out

paula eagleholic said...

Shirley, I do hope Luna's eye will be OK

magpie said...

egg tending and resettling now I guess

magpie said...

and also Shirley
thanks for the synopsis of the Grammar lessions...wow, bet you also covered plurals!
What a neat skill to have....maybe in my "old age" I could do some free-lance editing...if so, I will have to come to you for refresher classes !

magpie said...

Lynn
prayers offered for your friend Ric and fo rhis family also

Mema Jo said...

Very unusual that Belle doesn't have her head tucked and is not snoozing.
Just maybe........... I'm ok with 2..

magpie said...

Hope Valentine's Day has some special moments to it for all of us...♥
Make it special for yourselves if you need to...

A good friend of mine is going through a divorce....only been married about two years...he's about ready to clobber Cupid right about now !!
It's not always the easiest "holiday" to get through...

magpie said...

BUT -
We have the ultimate Valentine's couple right here with
Belle and Liberty ♥ ♥

Mema Jo said...

Lucky and Ted are sleeping (Hibernating)

No sound from Lily's den and all I can
see is a big bear butt.

Lady Blackwater is sleeping while incubating their 3 eggs. We will be on a Hatch Watch at that nest 17th or so.

magpie said...

pains me that I am on call with the beep beep beeper...cannot scoot up for James's school Valentine's party on Monday.....
that's how I TRY to spend my Valentine's Day, but not this year
:(


Jo
Enjoy YOUR time with the Hedgesvillers Monday!
How is the Bragg Bunch doing ??

magpie said...

I was sure wishing to see Megan on here today...
hoping she was up to her elbows in dirt having fun playing with seeds

Miss You Megan !!

magpie said...

I'm checking out for the night...got nothing but nothing done today but a broken up sleep, and a nice walk through the neighborhood and a visit to some mallard ducks at a nearby creek

might try to stay up late and get something constructive done

Got you all, my favorite Valentines on my mind and in my heart

Prayers for the heart sadnesses, and for wellness...
God Bless Us, Every One
xoxo ♥

Mema Jo said...

Bragg Bunch is doing well - loving the NC weather.......
Hedgesville Bunch has rescheduled for maybe Wed or Thurs. It is difficult to have all 5 well at any one time!
Megan was on FB today briefly. She will be here tomorrow, I Hope! Miss her too.

paula eagleholic said...

Margy, sorry you are going to miss the day with James.

I wonder if Belle doesn't have her head tucked because of the warmer weather...or whatever she's been calling at tonight.

Gonna close down early tonight, have to get an early start tomorrow.

Hugs to all ♥

Mema Jo said...

Be thinking of you on your journey and your signing of all those closing papers! Make sure they spell your
name correctly.......... ((hugs))

Mema Jo said...

I'm playing some solitaire and keeping an eye on Belle......

hedgie said...

Good night to all turning in.
Paula, safe trip tomorrow. Read all the fine print!
I hope Megan hasn't had another med reaction or anything. I, too, hope that she was just enjoying the nice temps and sunshine.

Glo, when did you take the pic down? Before or after I viewed?? Can hardly imagine anything being better than the two I loved!!!

Lolly said...

Thinking about going to bed. A wee bit early for me but I can not keep my eyes open.

Thought Belle was going to tuck, but now she has her head up.

Lolly said...

Ghostly Belle doing a poop shoot. Eggs in view.

hedgie said...

Missed it----Belle out? Lib sitting in his usual spot.....still two eggs.

Lolly said...

Now she is doing an egg roll and back on the eggs. Maybe she ate something that did not agree with her.☺

hedgie said...

Oh, okay, Lolly.....she settled a lot faster than usual.

Well, tomorrow is the "home visit" form the behaviorist...10AM. So better say g'night and hope for a good sleep for me as well as y'all!
Will see you sometime----maybe afternoon.

Prayers for all.

Lolly said...

Belle up again. What's the matter Belle?

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone,
Dropping in pretty late tonight!
I've lurked a bit today to see how Belle is doing.
Hubby and I went and saw "The King's Speech" today--WOW, what a fantastic movie! Absolutely loved it! I highly recommend it!
Dana, I am so very sorry that Little Man has crossed the Rainbow Bridge, but I am sure that he is now with Ed, happy to no longer be in pain, and that they both will be watching over you. Prayers for your grieving heart to mend! ((HUGS)), too. Sorry that Aunt Anna Mae has passed, too. Prayers for the whole family.
Lynn, prayers going up for Ric(k).
Shirley, sorry to hear that Luna is having eye problems again. Glad to hear that the meds seem to be helping. Prayers for Luna, for sure!
Well, I'm getting sleepy, so think I will call it a night. Judie, thanks for the night light--I got here without clonking my shins on any furniture. I'm making sure the porch light is on. Prayers have been said for everyone, for so many needs tonight. The eye-scanner security and Dana's thumbprint-scanner security are both enabled. Sleep well, everyone, and I will talk to you tomorrow. God bless, and goodnight. Love all of you! :o]

Lolly said...

Well, I am calling it quits too.
Belle is not tucking but it does look like she is nodding off occasionally. Her head falls forward.

Nite all! Sweet dreams!

PA Nana said...

Time for the recliner at this roost. Jim went to bed an hour ago and now it's my turn.

Prayers for all needs and wants.
Goodnight and God bless!

stronghunter said...

Hi,

Been working late on grades. Heading upstairs. See you tomorrow. No tucked head for me. Sounds uncomfortable.

stronghunter said...

Was also kind of waiting up because Luna needs to be medicated again tonight. Kathryn will take care of it, but I'll check in and remind her in case she has fallen to sleep.

Costume Lady said...

Maybe Belle was waiting for Valentines day to give Lib a gift. Then we could really call it Valentine, or Val?
Come on Belle, it's now or never!

GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
PRAYERS AND BLESSINGS FOR ALL

Costume Lady said...

Nite, Shirley:)

Lolly said...

♥♥♥Well, guess it is Valentine's Day on the East coast, so Happy Valentine's Day to all of you! I came for THE eagles but have stayed for the friendships I have made. Love you all!! ♥♥♥

Just saw another egg roll!♥
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

NatureNut said...

Time for Good Night!

Lynn, prayers for your friend, Ric.
Shirley, hope Luna's eye gets better.

Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>) &
Bless All Your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ☺

NatureNut said...

Lolly, is it ESP??? ♥

Lolly said...

Maybe! ☺

Mema Jo said...

Belle's head is up! still facing 6:00

Lolly - You did Deb's pic as a Valentine - Beautiful..

Lynn - Have a good day tomorrow with Mai. Prayers for Ric

Loretta - I had sent you an Email full of Kitties and Boxes - You too Lolly.

Mema Jo said...

Shirley I sure hope Luna gets better.
Hunter on FB was a very proud young man

Andy - I was wondering if you two had seen "The King's Speech" My daughter said it was awesome.

Diann - I'm heading to la la land!

Mema Jo said...

I just feel hesitant to leave Belle...
Not sure what it is but really just a feeling... If she would just tuck her head and sleep ..........

12:28am Just saw a good egg roll and 2 eggs were boldly showing.

Mema Jo said...

Good Night all my friends

Prayers for all wants/needs

Hugs for All ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

PA Nana said...

I'm back. Couldn't sleep - AGAIN!!!

I don't see anything new at the nest nor much posting after I went to bed, so no news-again.

Nest lighting seems brighter tonight and it's making viewing of Belle (or is it Lib) much better.

Is anyone still here?

PA Nana said...

Maybe I'll play some Mahjong until I get sleepy.

Pleasant dreams everyone. Catch you all tomorrow.

God bless!

kickngbird said...

Briefly tucked head under wing, then head came back out in less than a minute.

Brighter tonight so able to see more detail; facing 3 o'clock.

Lynne2 said...

well, between the very dark nest and the herky jerky motion of the night feed...I can't tell if she's tucked in or not, but she's pretty still. Head at 12 tail at 6. The wind is really howling again there. Oh wait, she is up and moving....now her head is at 6 and tail at 12! I can see she is looking around. Moved a little more, head at 7 now. Can't tell if she is down or standing. So frustrating! Think she is still now...

carolinabeachmom said...

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY to all Eaglemomsters and Dadsters out there. I hope you all have a wonderful day!

carolinabeachmom said...

can't see if we have a Valentine gift of an egg from Belle as eagle is quietly sitting on egg cup. It should be getting around time for a breakfast fish drop. Wind is still blowing pretty good. Hope it is a sunny day for the nest.

WV sUSAn said...

Good morning eagle lovers. I think they just told each other Happy Valentines Day. And here's a big Happy Valentines Day to each of you

carolinabeachmom said...

Calling back and forth between Liberty and Belle for just a bit. Still no sight of egg cup.

carolinabeachmom said...

Good morning WV sUSAn. I wondered if they were wishing eachother a Happy Valentine's day too. Well you have a nice day. I am finally going to tear myself off here and get to work. WANDA you are a sleepy head this am.

Lori O. said...

Happy Valentine's Day Lynne and BeachMom!

Good morning - hope you ladies are having a nice morning.

paula eagleholic said...

Maybe she's putting in her breakfast order :)

Lori O. said...

LOL Paula! You're probably right.

floralgirl said...

Morning all:)
Belle just got up,here's Lib.

floralgirl said...

Today's nest weather-
Mostly sunny and breezy. Highs in the upper 50s. West winds 15 to 25 mph. Gusts up to 50 mph this afternoon.

WV sUSAn said...

And I see we have 2 lovely eggs today.

WV sUSAn said...

And it's nice and sunny too. Beautiful!

Lori O. said...

I think Lynn said it yesterday but I agree that it's so so cute how Belle uses her beak to pull herself forward against the eggs.

It's a beautiful morning.

Morning Megan!

T-Bird said...

Good morning eagle momsters and dadsters.

T-Bird said...

Stronghunter, love the picture!!!!!!!

Lori O. said...

Hi SUSAn!

T-Bird said...

I'm blessed this morning. I got to see an egg roll. : ))

WV sUSAn said...

Hi Lori! Going to jump in the shower.

T-Bird said...

Blessed again, Lib and Belle.

paula eagleholic said...

Aw, Belle is back,

Heading out, have a great day everyone!

♥Happy Valentine's Day♥

floralgirl said...

Belle must have gotten herself breakfast. Can't see what it is.

WV sUSAn said...

That's how I get a big bite down too, Belle, just throw my head back and keep swallowing til it goes.

glo said...

Good morning everyone Happy Valentines Day

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
H♥PPY V♥LENTINES D♥Y to you all!

WV sUSAn said...

Is the Potomac frozen over? They have been eating a lot of squirrels and other things. Seems like they'd rather have fish. Hmmmm

Costume Lady said...

Yes, CANDY, I was a sleepy head this morning. Sorry I missed having coffee with you:(

Are there still only 2 eggs or have our lovebirds not given a glimpse of the cup contents? It's been, what...9 days since the first egg was laid? Too many days apart for a 3rd eaglet to flourish:(

WV sUSAn said...

A little kissy face for the love birds. Ahhh

Costume Lady said...

Susan...river is not frozen over, just the edges. (well, that was a week ago that we passed over it)

Costume Lady said...

So tired from working the Valentine dinner yesterday that I just rolled out of bed...need to start the coffee maker and turn the heat up. BBS

grannyblt said...

Good Morning all. Happy V-day.

Nice to see our lovey couple in some sunshine a while ago.

Will check back later.

Lynne2 said...

Lynne2 said...

It's already 42 here this morning! Gonna be a hot one! LOL!

Saw both of the eagles just a bit ago.

magpie said...

Good Morning Eagle ♀'s and ♂'s

Thanks for the weather report Megan ...not really looking forward to those winds again ~
Good to See You ! ☺
Norfolk is already swaying pretty good in the breezes....


Is that a little egg I see peeking out from the bottom of our eagle at NCTC ?

magpie said...

maybe it is just something else little and white

magpie said...

I check Finland Water nest often..rarely see any birds there...looks like feetie prints on the nest, ALSO looks to me like part of the nest on the right side has fallen apart

Sure miss seeing those White-tailed Sea Eagles on there !

magpie said...

switch ? at BWE two birds on the nest now

magpie said...

was...and 3 spectacular eggs were in sight also

magpie said...

Lolly
Spectacular avatar....
really neat idea !

Jo - see where your plans have changed for today, hope all the little ones WILL be all well on the same day this week !

magpie said...

and Happy Trails to traveling Beach-Bound Paula right now...

Happy Valentine's Day everyone, hug your Sweeties,
and / or hug yourselves !


Best wishes for a good, safe, healthy day

Lynn hope the in-home visit with the behaviourist goes well today for you and Mai Ying

xoxo See you all later on...
Happy Eagle-Nest watching...

Judie said...

Good morning.

Shirley, I am sorry about Luna and hope the medication will quickly make the situation better.

Will read more carefully when I return from therapy.

BBL

wvgal_dana said...

Good morning in eagleland dear friends (:

Don't know the temp but the sun is shiniing. So that is good.

Hope they can help with Luna's eye.

I agree Hedgie Joy would be a wonderful name for an egg xxxooo

Judie don't over do too much. Sounds like you are really coming along nicely.
What about the infection? Is it gone?

Hedgie prayers that Rick passes to God peacefully.

There could be 3 eggs....we know there are two.

The part about the Lord taketh and giveth. Saturday I visited with my nephew and his wife Craig and Darlene. Their one son his wife divorced him for one reason. He was tested and they said, "it would be like hitting the lottery for you son". Well he is now with someone different----HE HIT THE LOTTERY---His girlfriend is pregrant!!! They had a picture to show me it is like a little peanut lol.being sad then turned to such HAPPINESS....a little peanut will be born for them. WOW GOD IS GOOD!!

wvgal_dana said...

Diann glad you got your printer working. It is good to see you on here (:

Lolly I bet he had them behind his back for awhile or a bag hiding them...oh the kiss so sweet of Jack that rascal hee hee

wvgal_dana said...

Margy yes he is playing with all of each of your pets and others too. Plus the ones of ours that went ahead of him. That was so sweet to say Margy and again ty everyone for the love I feel from you.

Sorry Margy for your friend going through the divorce. Yep he does probably want to clopper Cupid.

Paula's headed for the B word..Sharon don't care the Beach. So happy Paula everything worked out..oh we will get to see more pictures oh boy.

Margy I wish you still could have gone so sorry you can't do the school Valentine with Janes this year...I know it means a lot to you. (((((((((HUGS FOR MARGY AND JAMES)))))))))))

Looks like 2 is the final count on the eggs this year.

wvgal_dana said...

Oh Lynne2 see you have a sore throat and cold...please get better very soon...HUGS.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL EAGLE MOMSTERS AND DADSTERS

don't know how to make the hearts
lost my list so I'll put hugs and hearts and bells and bows and roses and candy and dinner and show

ENJOY YOUR DAY! I'm getting a big heart balloon from the dollar store for my two favorite men (:

Geula said...

Is the tree getting thiner or taller? I don't remember it swaying in the past...so long as it doesn't get like the NBG nest, I'll be happy!

Bird Girl said...

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you, my friends!

I will be offline for the next week, no computer! Be sure to have a great week!

Tell Liberty & Belle to keep doing a great job, and I'll see you all when I get back!

Bird Girl

Bird Girl said...

Geula...they did remove some dead branches when they moved the camera.

Knowing that eagles' nest can weigh hundreds of pound, even thousands, isn't it astounding that that tree is still holding the weight after all these years!?!?

movin said...

I think both of Phoebe's chicks have fledged just now.

They were both there a couple of minutes ago...

C(°ٿ°)D Jim

movin said...

I think healthy nest trees strengthen and buttress the limbs, which are bearing the nest's weight, as the nest grows.

I think this one has always swayed in the wind, and I just looked at the Weather Channel. The gusts could be up to 25 mph.

C(°ٿ°)D Jim

NatureNut said...

♥♥♥♥HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!♥♥♥♥

Got a call from Park--so funny--photographer was there looking for eagles,so they called me to tell him where they hang out!!!We know where they might be, but will they show???
Dana, heart is simple---Alt 3♥

Lolly said...

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Good morning!
Happy Valentintine's Day!
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

I hope each of you have a wonderful day. Lynn, thinking of you and Mai today! Hope all goes well.

Really hated to get off last night. Wonder what was causing Belle to be so restless???

Hear the wind (sorry Lynn) and see the bright sun shine on the nest. 54 here and sunny, headed up to 70 again. Life is sweet!

Mema Jo said...

♥♥ Hope you have a special day ♥♥
♥ Filled with love and Happiness ♥
♥ ♥ ♥ Happy Valentines Day ♥ ♥ ♥

Lolly said...

I made a Valentine avatar of the NBG eagle in the snow. Went to put it on last night and had a change of mind when I saw Deb's picture.

Lolly said...

Good morning Jo. You were certainly up late last night.

Mema Jo said...

Lolly I felt the same way when I closed down last evening.. I just thought for sure this morning we could
have another egg - later or not!

BWE in about 3 days could have a cracked egg getting ready to be a little 'bobble head'.

NatureNut said...

Lolly, you mentioned the 3 chicks in '08 when some of us joined the Blog. I remember that Paula made a video called "Tiny Takes a Tumble".
It was so cute & funny. If I can get it out of My Faves, it might show things to come!

Tiny's Tumble

Good morning and Happy Valentine's Day everyone. Wow, what a weekend and I am wore slam out! Have to start work at 11 so trying to get all my social networking in beforehand.

Mattie's birthday celebration spanned 2 days and I think I am too old for this stuff! :-)

Mema Jo said...

Whoops! Forgot something.........

Good Morning all you
Sweethearts! Your friendships are
everything to me!

Mema Jo said...

Sharon from the pics on FB all of your celebrating Mattie Jane was just
Spectacular! She won't forget her 13th

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Loretta for the Tumble video
I remember that....... :)
I watched another one on there about
Eaglets Playing.... That was NO play - That Pecking Pearl was vicious
Wonder where she is now? lol

Costume Lady said...

I never got to see the TINY video...weren't they cute?!
Thanks, Loretta:)

Yes Jo, Pearl was a mean one...can't remember why we called he PEARL...

Lolly said...

OMG Loweeda! That was fabulous! Thanks! And, did you hear that sound. We will get a little of that this year, but certainly not like that. He/she was certainly tiny but was very successful at growing up! He is probably a beautiful eagle now, maybe starting to get a "bald" head?

Lolly said...

Time for me to start my day. Need to eat a bite of breakfast, dry my hair, walk and do a little housework. This afternoon plan to bake something for my valentine. Maybe a lemon meringue pie or choc pie....hmmmm?

empty nest, fly in, egg roll, wiggle wiggle

NatureNut said...

Forgot to switch my amended avatar last night. Love yours, Lolly & Wanda, & many others!
Sunny, but windy at the nest. I think maybe this new cam shows the ground better & we can really notice the "sway".
Wonderful day for ride to the B----

Lynne2 said...

Going to be a long day...I have already killed 10 STINKBUGS.

Lynne2 said...

make that 18. Up to 48 and sunshine....they are literally crawling out of the wood work. GROOOOOSSSSSSSS

Mema Jo said...

Wanda - I think that we were talking about her 'pecking' and Pearl just slipped out and stuck with her!

Mema Jo said...

Lynne - how are you killing them?
I still keep a container of water & dish detergent and throw them in there
Instant Death!

wvgal_dana said...

That video was great to see again. I had forgotten that one....so cute Tiny Take A Tumble lol

Thanks Loretta ( :

Jo I bet wherever Pecking Pearl is. She will be a "ruler"...lol

Oh friends are great. I did it Loretta (: ty hugs

Lynne2 said...

I'm getting a jar ready Jo! We had been just grabbing and sending down the toilet, but clearly with the warm weather this week, I'll need a jar like I had in the fall. GROOOOSSSSSSS

wvgal_dana said...

A friend of mine during the winter was doing work on his 10 yr old home. He was SB's were all in the rockwool insulation.

Mema Jo said...

Dana - I think Megan will be around
It is Delphia who will be out for a
week......

wvgal_dana said...

Loretta tell them at the park Suzanne that use to be in here..her saying to tell the photographer "eyes to the skys".

Lynne2 said...

wow, what did I miss....mEGGan won't be here for a week? Serious seed planting time, I'm guessing.

Mema Jo said...

Breaking away for Street clothes.....
Jenny may call - she is off today

Thinking about Lynn and Mai....
Hope it goes well....

BBILW

Lynne2 said...

have fun with Jenny today Jo!

wvgal_dana said...

They did say high winds so I'm sure that is helping to blow the nest around.

We are lucky it isn't as bad as NBG. Dizzy Dizzy it makes me.

Ok so I give Delphia some hearts too since Loretta showed me how to make them hee hee

Here you go Delphia for those seven days ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and one more incase it's a day late ♥

ty Jo

When is Janet getting that child to hold cuddle cuddle

Lolly said...

Breakfast done.♥ On to hair next.♥ Then, I guess walk. Yuk!

Love your avatar, Loweeda! That eagle looks like it has been through LABOR to lay those eggs. LOL

Mema Jo said...

Jenny is an early bird!!! She has already been to WalMart and back to her nest. I missed the trip!
Today is their wedding anniversary!
She had a beautiful valentine theme for their wedding.

Mema Jo said...

Cornell Back yard Bird Count -
Jenny has done this for the past few years. I think I will participate this year. I have a lot of different birds at the feed station on the deck.
Should be fun... Need to read the rules.

Mema Jo said...

Whoa! I told you all I was headed for Street Clothes and I never made it!

Second try --- BBL

wvgal_dana said...

I'm in street clothes too Jo

will bbl

hedgie said...

I'm here! Haven't read back yet. Did see that there were still only two eggs earlier.
The gal was here for almost 2 1/2 hrs.....know that I only paid for one......wonder if I'll get a bill?
Mai is pooped...and sound asleep.
She did quite well, but she did see some of the aggressiveness. Gave me some good counter-measures to use......it's mostly all about distraction (with treats) and not letting her see any fear or frustration on my part.
But now I need to vacuum----her treats were practically crumbs---and canned chicken---and Mai is not a good crumber yet! Sure don't want stuff ground into the carpet!

hedgie said...

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY to all!

I had a nice surprise.....while I was in the abthroom this AM, I kept hearing this repetitive tapping, and Mai starting barking. I thought it was a stupid woodpecker on the house....went to open door to go out to shoo him away, and there stood Carolyn with a Valentine card for me!!! Sweet daughter!

Susan....Potomac isn't frozen over----crossed it last week and flowing free.

Both eagles on the nest at WE.

♥HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO JENNY AND MR. JENNY♥

Today, Gene and I celebrate an anniversary, too. 57 years ago, we had our first date and shared our first kiss♥ I do get a lobster dinner for this anniversary as well as our wedding anniversary;)

hedgie said...

Good to see Megan back with us this morning!
Delphia, hope your time away is for FUN!

Lolly, love your avatar, too!
How do you all insert stuff into your pics???

Dana....Janet?? As in Nilla? Is she expecting a new grandbbaby?

hedgie said...

Christie is boarding at BWI for a trip to Indianapolis until Thurs.
Hope the wind is calm up at 30,000 ft.!
It is truly bad here....but 55°!

hedgie said...

No new word on Ric(k) other than that he made it through the night.

hedgie said...

Hope that the winds haven't closed the Bay Bridge......that would be a heck of a note for Paula, wouldn't it?

Costume Lady said...

Today, I placed my first order with the MOUNTAINEER FOOD BANK for the Soup Kitchen! We are so excited that we can get so much for little or nothing. This is a blessing from above for so many people.
I have 4 promises of clothing from cleaned out closets for our CLOTHES CLOSET. One church goer said he has two 55 gal garbage bags full of clothes, many are brand new with tags still on...he promised to put them on hangers for us (I hope they are not wrinkled).

Lolly said...

Lynn, so glad she saw some of the agressiveness. Have been thinking of you all morning and wondering how it was going. Certainly hope that her suggestions work!

I am baking for Jack. Decided to do more brownies for him. It is easier for me to turn away from brownies than a pie that I was considering.

He is out working in the yard and I am going to join him shortly. It is up to 67!☺

And, the nest is rocking and rolling in the wind.

Lolly said...

Lynn, I just took the pic I already had and opening it in windows "Paint". Just drew the little red heart and filled it with red.

magpie said...
