To answer the comment "Do we have and eagle expert at NCTC?"
NCTC has several bald eagle experts, as does the Fish and Wildlife Service Region, which NCTC is in.
The Service has a long legacy with this bird, including the Mason Neck National Wildlife Refuge, south of DC, which was the first National Wildlife Refuge established for an endangered species--the American Bald Eagle. Also the Bald Eagle Repository in Denver, that helps prevent any trade in bald eagle feathers.

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 498 of 498And wouldn't you know that little announcement ends up at the top of the page. :( Need to talk to Lynne about quitting.
LOL! Okay. I'll be here.
Great Dana - BBIAM.
Wow guess that was the "split". Didn't see that coming. I guess that's because I'm a newbie. LOL
Anything happen?
nothing :(
I'm sitting here looking at my kitchen cabinets wondering if I can stain them a darker color. I might take one off and try it today. My husband will LOVE that! Cause he knows it's a job I will start and he will have to finish.
Live cam is gray now.
Dana, I've figured out the best way to type the reports and make them bold caps is to type the first bold symbol then leave a few empty space and then type the closing 4 symbols for bolding. Then copy it. When you go to write the nest happenings, paste the bold symbols in the post box and type the report between the symbols. Then just tighten up by taking the space(s) out and send...or publish.
eagles have not returned yet
Guess I should have added to caps bold info make sure your caps lock is on. It's much easier.
I hope that helps.
LIVE CAM GRAY-EMPTY NEST
Dana, I have been looking at my kitchen cupboards with total disdain for 8 yrs now! I don't think a day goes by that I don't wonder what I can do inexpensively. Only mine are too dark. But not sure I want to paint over wood.
I didn't do it >:(
I don't know how to get bold...
I painted my cabinets in my old house and it worked out pretty well. My taste has changed and I don't want to paint them white which is what I did before. I need my contrast to my wood floors which are light colored.
get it in bold
Dana I just sent the symbols to your email.
copy those and paste in this box - put on caps lock and type in the space between the symbols.
okay. Though I've tried to make music symbols on FB with the code that people gave me but it wouldn't work on my computer. It was really strange, but I will try it. Didn't get the email yet.
remember to delete empty spaces between your last word and the symbol.
check in your spam box.
oh it went to gmail. I have to change that. I don't use that email.
I sent it again with a better demo.
OKAY LETS SEE IF THIS WORKS
COOL
EAGLE IN THE NEST, TRUDY
COULD FEEL IT! REFRESHED AND TRUDER BACK IN NEST. FLIES IN FROM LEFT OVER 9.
NESTORATIONS. BELLE NOT IN NEST YET.

T FACING EDGE OF NEST AT 5ISH TREE LOOKING OFF TO HIS LEFT AND HE'S GONE.
I have to leave now and get ready for Mass. I'll be back in a few.
This shot of the eagle is cool though the sun is reflecting off of his feathers.
T TOOK OFF OVER 5 TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF NEST.
GONE at 7:14 and now the still image is too!
Bye Dana - You did it!!! It's all yours next time. :)

Wonder why Belle tolerates him? He is not even handsome and doesn't know what a FISH STICK is:)
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...

LOOKS LIKE RUDY FLEW OFF AT THE 9:00 BUT RETURNED RIGHT AWAY
Well, now, ain't that the pits...lost our picture!
Ok, they are both back.

BOTH GONE
TRUDER BACK...
With the light shinging the way it is, looks like a hay stack in front of Truder.
GONE, NEST MT
Morning, Dana and Lori. Not a very exciting visitation this morning, was it?
Good morning!!!
I am in eagle heaven this morning! Saw two lone eagles soaring over the house this morning...then when I thought it couldn't get any better....ther were 4 immatures over the house at one time!!!
omgOSH! That is eagle heaven Paula. Lucky you!
Good Morning in our change Eagle World.
Neat Paula glad you brought the right place at the beach. You should enjoy all those eagles ( :
Wanda how is your knee?
Oh this is WVDana or DanaWV.
OUR NEST IS EMPTY RIGHT NOW.
OMGosh that is awesome. Where do you live again?
Hi Wanda. Very unexciting visit this morning. They're like an old couple now.
No not too exciting...but at least we got to see them even if only briefly.
I'm off to Mass. Catch up with everyone later.
Dana - guess we're delaying our chores, eh? Rather look for eagles. Waiting to see if WE had a chick.
That "where do you live" was at Paula, and I forgot you are at the beach. Which beach?
Good morning WV Dana.
Bye DanaMO
Well I've already vacuumed and scrubbed the tube. Lots to do, maybe if I do a little at a time and check the nest every so often it will be bearable.
oops scrubbed the "tub" LOL typing too fast.
Dana and I were complaining about our kitchen cupboards earlier...and I was thinking about how much I need to paint, too. Of course, Paula is getting that done this weekend. How do you do it woman?
Well, Paula, it doesn't get any better than that!
Seems like a Road Trip may be in order;)
For those of us who like gardening, I found a hosta variety named LIBERTY online last night so I think I will get some as a tribute to Lib.
There's also a Peony called LIBERTY BELLE which would be awesome but I couldn't find a nursery that had it.
MEGAN - IF YOU CARRY THESE PLANTS OR KNOW WHERE WE CAN GET THEM would you please let us know? I would be forever grateful.
Paula I would have come along and helped you paint for a look at all your birds! :)
Dana WV...my knee is not doing as well as I would like, but then, I can still walk with Mr. Eagle:)
Paula, what is the body of water that your house is near?
Alright, Dana, Wanda, Paula, Have a great day!
Time for me to get moving. Don't want to waste a ray of sunshine today. Wish I could put Lolly's smiley sun avatar here.
Eagle in the 12 o'clock position...?
9:12am Eagle in nest
Did anybody know there is an eagle in the nest?
They need to straighten out the how blurry the picture is.
Robyn...has Laird returned?
The eagles have soared elsewhere...they were around for about 45minutes...saw an adult...and some 3 and 4 year olds
Lynn...I am definitely behind on my Grisham reading...only got 1 chapter read last night before I zonked out...don't have my dish hooked up here yet
nice here today....sunny but windy
Yes Wanda I put the time in bold letter that it arrived.
I is a bad picture we are looking at. They might need to lighten it some.
Sunlight makes it hard to tell which bird it is...
I think it is Belle. Don't see that ugly black spot.
They need to light the cam some. Before they had lightened it a few seconds ago you could not even till it had a beak.
Oh no there is "no black spot on head".
Lowes Update:
Laird aka 7Y returned at 7:50 this morning w lots of HP. Wooohooooo
Glad to hear we have had two in our nest this morning... I think. Glad to see Belle!!
Wanda. Hope your knee is better today. So sorry you're suffering.
Happy Sunday to all ! ! !
Let the games begin at LoTL!!!!!
Trying to look for the inverted v
that Belle has under chin feathers.
****
NEW THREAD IS UP
****
Could it possibly be LIB?
Darn missed that picture. Eagle was facing us....feathers are straight across no inverted v ?????????
Paula. How exciting for you to see eagles at the beach house. They just follow an eagleholic everywhere!!!
Darn missed that picture. Eagle was facing us....feathers are straight across no inverted v ?????????
What does that mean??
No black spot on head??
No inverted v underchin feathers are straight across????
What does this mean??? Maybe I just missed the inverted v due to the live feed picture not the best.
9:24am SAME EAGLE STILL SITTING IN NEST AT SAME SPOT 11 ISH
Just got a good picture of the feathers under chin. They are straight across??????
I wish they would lighten the live feed just alittle.
Ok I don't want to start anything please understand this. Could this be Liberty has come back????
The white feathers under chin are straight and no black spot on head???
9:31AM EAGLE SITTING IN SAME SPOT STILL CAM PICTURES SHOW NO BLACK SPOT AND FEATHERS ARE STRAIGHT UNDER CHIN
