I am having fish sticks and french fries for lunch. Num num!
Andrew called me this morning with concert dates. He is doing a solo with about 15 different percussion instruments and is so excited about it and also student conducting at one concert. He will graduate in December 2012 and is getting married tentatively June 2, 2012. 2012 will be a very big year for him.
We're back and Tori is sleeping soundly. Hedgie they didn't put her *under* with anesthesia, they decided since she was in a hospital setting and it took longer to get the hose in her throat and everything set up they felt more comfortable just IV'ing it.
Her best friend came along and they were goofing around after she was done and in recovery, prior to that she was cranky
Shar----such great news from Andrew!! Know you are proud!!!
Robyn, I figured it would just be IV sedation. Glad you're home. LEt her sleep!! When Christie had hers done, we walked into the bathroom at one point a few hours later to change her gauze and she passed out on me! So stay with Tori!!!
Good Afternoon ! I've worn Malcolm, the granddog out with tug of war, chase the ball and a couple of walks. So, he's zonked out and I have a few minutes to catch up before picking up grandson, Seth, at school.
Robyn, I looked for your posts right away and am soooo happy to know Tori is home ! There will be some discomfort, but am praying for a rapid recovery for your precious daughter.
Hedgie, thanks for thinking of me with your post of 10:09, regarding Tori's condition. Robyn did share that with me early one morning a week or so ago. She's been in my thoughts and prayers ever since ! Picture me booing J.Gordon and both the Busch brats right along with you.
Bev, include me in as a prayer partner for you, your daughter and the baby !
Sharon, I love the avatar ! How wonderful it is to think of the great 2012 you and yours have waiting for you. Where does Andrew go to school ?
It's a challenge for us newbies to play catch up and I hope you none of you mind repeating what is well known to most of you. I'm just so thrilled to have the opportunity to get acquainted with so many wonderful people !
By the way, how long does newbie apply ? About five years maybe, when my entire head of hair has turned white ? ;o) No danger of me having a Truder black spot, I can assure you !
KayIM---after I posted that to you, I got to thinking that maaybe it was Linda who asked.....sorry! Hope she sees it! Sounds like you DID wear out that doggie! You will only be a newbie for one season. Come next fall, you will be a full-fledged MOMSTER!!!! Just kidding! But, yeah, we'll call you a newbie for a couple of months!! Thanks for your NASCAR support......I can cope with Kurt pretty well---he has manners and is not full of himself and doesn't have serious anger issues like brat Kyle. Gordon has always gotten under my skin because he came blasting in thinking he was God's gift to the racing world. Carolyn (Jewels) and I call him DuckLips!
Good afternoon everyone. I'm glad Tori is doing OK. I hope her recovery is easy.
2012 will certainly be a big year for Sharon and Andrew. :)
I will be heading back to the Land of No Internet (my parent's house) in a little while. I'll be taking care of my Grandma so my Mom can go to work. It's not a hard job--Grandma has been sleeping a lot. We just don't leave her alone. ♥
Hi, Everyone, Getting here kinda late today, but at least I made it here!
Steve, thanks for the new thread. Isn't technology wonderful?! :o]
Have been pretty busy this morning. The gardeners do the yard on Tuesday, so I've gotta clean up a bit before they get here. (I'm like my SIL, who's been known to clean house because the cleaning woman is coming!) No, really--if there are plants that need to be trimmed, I gotta do it before they fill our brown (yard waste) trash can to the top with grass clippings! Otherwise, the clippings won't fit in there.
Saying some prayers for Tori and Robyn. Hoping for a speedy recovery for Tori! (Have I mentioned how much I dislike dentists and oral surgeons?!)
Sharon, I LOVE your new avatar!! YAY!! TEAM LIBERTY!!!!!!!
Well, I have a bunch of homework to do, so better get with it! I will try to check in later this afternoon. If not, I'll be back late tonight. Praying for a good day for everyone. Later, alligators! :o]
p.s.~~ Here I am, pulling a "Margy"--SHARON, sounds like 2012 is going to be quite a year for Andrew!!! What fantastic news!!...OK, better get busy. Later!!
Talked with my son over lunch and he told me about the stormy night out that way. I think the weather has gone crazy. Hope everyone is ok. Love the Team Liberty Avatar Sharon
Guess there have been no reports form the recent requested additional search over the weekend. Might be nice to know someone even saw 3 adult eagles on the NCTC property
Glo, weather is just plain weird everywhere! I was wondering if Sharon would let us ALL use that avatar for a little while!!! WOuldn't that look cool???
Not having any luck getting Decorah to "play"....argh!
Andy, just be glad your trash takes all that clipping/trimming refuse. Ours won't here!
Love the Team Liberty avatar. Had to leave before I could find out what the WAX thing is... Like the NASCAR comments. I feel the same way about Busch and I thought the same thing about Gordon. Not crazy about Johnson so it's him I root against these days.
I don't see any posts about eagle sightings today, maybe I have to go the end of the longest thread!
the WAX thing referring to this morning, but I guess that was still on the Monday thread. Geez it's hard to catch up. Glad the surgery went well Robyn.
Pictures ; referring to our Eaglet Momsters photo albums. Take a look/see Margy has a photo of Truder in the nest this morning and I think what PammySue said was he left - cam back & Belle followed and they both left.. Maybe around 7:30am
Decorah forum has named 1st born chick Trouble. Well not officially but members just sort of call it that LOL. Well why in the world :-). Not watching closely, but saw comment on here so went to check. I really really do not want to get attached to any age eagle at this point in this eagle season :-(
OMG---locals......Frederick,MD police think that the perp who killed the Burger King manager there last month is the same person who also robbed the Martinsburg and Hagerstown Burger Kings! No arrests yet made.
Sharon,thank you so much for sharing your fantastic avatar. I've happily accepted your invitation ! What a milestone it is when a mother watches her child accept that hard earned diploma. That and a marriage in the same year, what fun !
Hedgie, I don't mind the newbie designation at all and as Judie points out, it gives me some wiggle room in making errors ! Duck Lips, love it ! He has an arrogance that rubs me the wrong way,too.
Pammy Sue, we'll miss you while you're at your parents house, but what a lovely thing to do for them and your grandma, too !
Sorry I missed all that Decorah action this afternoon. That's what's nice about this blog. You can miss stuff, but know the Momsters will bring you up to date !
Wow, Sharon, that's fantastic ! You have many proud moments ahead and we'll all be rooting for him, too ! I love band concerts and performances. Next month and through August I'll be enjoying Sunday evening band concerts at a nearby park. Community bands from all over central Ohio take turns providing the rousing entertainment.
Good grief that Decorah nest is a mess! Dead bodies all over the place! They really need to clean it up, it's a wonder there's enough room for those chicks!
Yes, Sharon, thanks for sharing your creative avatar!!
Judie, Judie, Judie! Being a newbie doesn't save them from getting LOL's for typos!!! We just have to take advantage of those to add them to the dictionary!!!
He's just sitting there as if he OWNS the place. ARGH! Maybe Belle and Liberty went out for dinner at the river......♫♪Shall We Gather at the River♪♫ sounds like a plan...TEAM LIBERTY!
LOL, Sharon ! You've got me beat with that iPod. Of course, I'm sure I'm a generation ahead of you and it's all I can do to keep up with you young whippersnappers.
Here is a good one: How many of you got back $3000.00 or more from your taxes? That is what they just said most people are getting back. Well dang I have to get back in line. LOL
Yes hedgie, that one little guy is a beast! He's always biting something.... I just hope one of them doesn't accidentally fling him right out. He grabs and holds on! Beast!
I've had to refresh for the third time since he landed in the nest about 32 minutes ago. He's just staying a the 6 o'clock position and looking around.
That spot on his head is really alot bigger than I realized. He does sit there like he owns the joint! Urgh! Seems very content with his feathers blowing in the wind.
Hi, I see our young Romeo is sitting in the nest. Picture is better. I had not looked at the live feed for awhile. I've been pretty busy.
Finally figured out why I could not get the electronic gradebook to work properly--with the help of a fellow teacher--I was trying to make it 3rd quarter, but it is 4th. Now I can get more organized, but still have much to do. At least I can start posting grades.
Kathryn is going to need to use the computer tonight because she has to take care of her taxes. I still have to do mine, but she needs to get together with Tom, so it'll take them a bit longer.
Well he is "confused"...no real name, not fully mature, doesn't know who likes him, needs a female and not sure Belle wants him and probably feels lonely. Now how would that make you look...??? lol
Someone in OD still saying today that it could be Lib! Where have they been? Don't know why I am reading that when the experience seems to be with all you wonderful people here. I'm not sure how I got so lucky to join this group, but I sure am glad that I did.
No, Sharon, it's OK. Someone said somewhere that this is their way of dealing with an unpleasant story...they say it's Lib with an injury instead of coming to grips with the truth...it's easier to deal with that way, rather than saying it's an intruder!
I know you use the feeties to identify Lit, DanaWV, so I wanted to focus on them for a bit. It might be pretty hard to identify him once he gets his adult plumage, so we need to keep a close watch on this fella.
We'll have to keep an eye on the tail feathers as well...right now they are uneven, probably due to molting. But we need to keep a watch on the shape of the tail IE rounded, square, etc.
By the way I did find out. That for several days NCTC "DID SEARCH FOR LIBERTY-well they don't call him by name they say resident male". They found a Great Horned Owl dead but no eagle dead or injured.
I wonder if that's our show for the night. I don't like the sound being off, but I am grateful for the picture. Usually I can hear when something is happening and I don't have to sit at the computer.
Me DanaWV called and talked with Steve at NCTC. During our talk ask him about the search. He said they did several days search. Even another after Deb from Hancock forum ask for one. He mentioned they only found a Great Horned Owl.
Me DanaWV also mentioned to Steve did anyone tell him the area I seen Liberty come from on March 18th. He said no....He said he will mention that to those looking. Cause they didn't know he could be in that area I seem him come from.
Kids did reasonably well on the Poe test. Of course, they should have since I let them use the book and their notes. But some got grades in the 20% range. That is really sad.
It is not good to say to the teacher that you can't do a part of the test because you were absent when we did that stuff. And even worse to try to claim that it is the teacher's fault that you never made up the assignments, especially when back work is left on the board for several days. I don't plan to chase them down the hall waving assignments.
Dana, Steve probably didn't know that we knew about that request....and I know that Deb at Hancock is out of town, so maybe he emailed her and she hasn't had a chance to post that information on Hancock yet. I do hope they send her a reply.
If those markings on that intruder are immature markings. They are going to change. So we need to find like Paula mentioned. Other ways to ID this intruder.
Darn wish we could paint his toenails lol That would make him stand out!!
STEVE I loved your pictures on the face book page and Hey does any one have a good picture of Lib I looked on the Nctc facebook page and can't tell which is which If anyone does please feel free to get my email address from my profile or my face book address also listed on my profile here That was really a long visit this time but so sad no belle
The only way I would know it is Lib would be the PERCH... This Truder has not once been on the PERCH... Belle was up on it once. I personally could never use the FEET to identify. I think the middle talon on all eagles is long in length. The feathered collar or the Tail or a small white feather on a shoulder or a mark by the beak....those are the things I am trying to remember.
Going to go take a shower and get comfy. Maybe a fire would be nice tonight.
Guess I'd better check my school e-mail. One of my students was going to send me a message because he wants to know his grade on the test. It seems the lad got grounded after my most recent spate of calls to parents. Got hold of Dad, and Dad was not happy with him.
wvDana, I knew about the restaurant and the deer carcass when it happened. A friend saw it and called it in. Health dept. got it on their website really fast.....I wondered how long it would take to make the newspaper....we all got a good laugh out of this morning.
Hedgie-Lynn I sure am glad someone seen it and they were there fast. If that placed had opened the next day serving people A lot of people would have been sick.

It looks like we will have a very warm day today in So Cal, but it has taken its time getting started. I don't even think it's broken 60° yet....
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
Better take a look at Phoebe's youngsters. I don't think they will be around tomorrow.
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
I'm surprised to see this morning that the second chick has hatched at WE...note near the cam screen.
I did finally see a couple of clips of first sighting of no. 1 hatchling there last evening before I shut down.
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
New thread checkin in to check email box THANKS STEVE
Ah Yes, Congrats to the WE nest!!
Is the 3rd egg at Decorah going to hatch?
Kids just finished their test on Poe. They are supposed to be doing a reading and writing assignment now.
Shar----such great news from Andrew!! Know you are proud!!!
Robyn, I figured it would just be IV sedation. Glad you're home. LEt her sleep!! When Christie had hers done, we walked into the bathroom at one point a few hours later to change her gauze and she passed out on me! So stay with Tori!!!
Hi, Jim. Yep, I announced the WE hatch this morning on old thread.
Hey, Shirley......hope the tests prove that they studied and paid attention!
We will see, Lynn.
Thanks Jim for posting WE hatch earlier this morning.
I seen two bobbleheads ( :

Time to get set for the trip to school---will catch up again after the boys go home.
Yay, glad it is over for Tori. Now the fun recuperation process.
KayIM, Andrew goes to West Virginia State University in Institute, WV.
KayIM---after I posted that to you, I got to thinking that maaybe it was Linda who asked.....sorry! Hope she sees it!
Sounds like you DID wear out that doggie!
You will only be a newbie for one season. Come next fall, you will be a full-fledged MOMSTER!!!! Just kidding! But, yeah, we'll call you a newbie for a couple of months!!

Just update my Decorah Eagles blog
Decorah Eagles Screen Shots
Talked with my son over lunch and he told me about the stormy night out that way. I think the weather has gone crazy. Hope everyone is ok.
Love the Team Liberty Avatar Sharon
Guess there have been no reports form the recent requested additional search over the weekend. Might be nice to know someone even saw 3 adult eagles on the NCTC property
Glad Tori made it through OK, praying for quick healing!
Bev, praying for your daughter and the baby and you too!
Able to keep reasonably current today, but whenever I go to post there are more to read...trying to hurry here.
Wind finally calmed down at Loch of Lowes... it was really blowing there for awhile - hard to watch the nest in a gale!
Jo, I still haven't figured out what pictures you were talking about yesterday . . . Where are they?
OK have asked and thankfully received permission so Team Liberty it is!!!
Good afternoon everyone. Hope you are all having a good day.
Is anyone watching Decorah?? Will mama put the baby back into the bowl?? She might be a little ticked at it right now...
Oh my one of the eaglets at Decorah is out of the cup again. Did anyone see what happened this time?
oh I can't watch...
@ Leona
She was trying to feed it and the little bugger kept biting her on the head! She flicked it off and that's where it landed!
That's what he did to dad the other day. Oh this little guy is going to drive me crazy.
I know I said I can't watch.. but look at him...
He's biting everything in sight!! I wonder if he has a problem with his vision?
Long day without all my eagle friends!
Will the mama usually help them back into the bowl?
Good captures, Leona.
Pammie, have a good afternoon with your Gram!
Glo, weather is just plain weird everywhere!
I was wondering if Sharon would let us ALL use that avatar for a little while!!! WOuldn't that look cool???
Not having any luck getting Decorah to "play"....argh!
Andy, just be glad your trash takes all that clipping/trimming refuse. Ours won't here!
I think that is dad again.
Christine when it happened the other day Mom put him back.
Woohoo,Safe again! Little bugger is a brat!! LOL
Man I can breath now....
He's lucky they don't toss him overboard. He/she bit papa right in the eye!
Afternoon hedgie.. Thanks. sorry I didn't get back to you. My heart was about to explode. That little guy is going to be trouble.
Christine that is what he did the other day. He just grabbed dad.
Love the Team Liberty avatar. Had to leave before I could find out what the WAX thing is...
Like the NASCAR comments. I feel the same way about Busch and I thought the same thing about Gordon. Not crazy about Johnson so it's him I root against these days.
I don't see any posts about eagle sightings today, maybe I have to go the end of the longest thread!
DanaMO they were in the nest this morning.
the WAX thing referring to this morning, but I guess that was still on the Monday thread. Geez it's hard to catch up.
Glad the surgery went well Robyn.
Yes, I was around for the morning visit, but that seems like it was VERY long ago :)
I am taking a break.
BBL
Pictures ; referring to our Eaglet
Momsters photo albums. Take a look/see
Margy has a photo of Truder in the nest
this morning and I think what PammySue
said was he left - cam back & Belle
followed and they both left.. Maybe
around 7:30am
I am back from my eye exam - Doc said everything was looking very well!!
But I have to close my eyes due to being blurry cause they're still dilated.
Robyn - give Tori a hug for me.
Bev. - Have your daughter and grandchild in my prayers
WVsUSAn- Have you and Grey and his mom
in prayers.
BBILW - when I can see to read
If anyone wants to use my avatar, I would be honored and you have my full permission.
Andrea So good to see you stop in. Have been worried!!! Where have you been?????
At Decorah 1st born chick bites everything; Dad, Mom and its sibling terribly!!!!!!!!!!
Parent at Decorah was biting at flies. It just moved a pile of fluff onto the chicks.
Decorah forum has named 1st born chick Trouble. Well not officially but members just sort of call it that LOL. Well why in the world :-). Not watching closely, but saw comment on here so went to check. I really really do not want to get attached to any age eagle at this point in this eagle season :-(
At Decorah, when papa flung "trouble", he was biting at the paw of some carnage in the nest. The name suits him ;-} They really need to clean nest!!
The horses are playing below again today :)
Well "Trouble" is a good name for that 1st chick. It bites the 2nd chick terrible. Then biting Mom & Dad...well it got the name truthfully ( :
Christine Horses where?
Dana...below the Decorah cam
OMG---locals......Frederick,MD police think that the perp who killed the Burger King manager there last month is the same person who also robbed the Martinsburg and Hagerstown Burger Kings! No arrests yet made.
Good late afternoon. Thank you, Steve for the new thread and Jo for the call over.
Good grief! I have returned to find that a Decorah eaglet has anger management issues, Lynn and Carolyn have issues with Ducklips.
Jo, does Mr. Jo know your eye doctor has the effect of making you bleary eyed? Hmmm.
Congratulations to Andrew, Sharon. We'll be here with you through it all.
Fish sticks? We're having tilapia with corn-on-the-cob.
Robyn, good to know Tori is doing well. Having wisdom teeth problems would make anyone cranky. Glad her friend was there for her.
I agree, Jim. Just checked on Phoebe's babes and they are looking very ready to move out.
Shirley, Poe is a favorite of mine.
Hi Dana and KayIM and Leona, and PammySue, and Iris, Bev, Susan, and all others I missed.
KayIM -- you want to remain a newbie as long as possible so you can get away with mistakes and not have everyone posting lols.
Andy, hope you get your homework done and, if you have class tonight, have a good one. How's Emma?
Darth has a meeting tonight so early to the kitchen.
BBL
Hedgie, I see that, it's on the news about the Burger King.
Hi everyone, any sign of eagles today?
Sharon,thank you so much for sharing your fantastic avatar. I've happily accepted your invitation ! What a milestone it is when a mother watches her child accept that hard earned diploma. That and a marriage in the same year, what fun !
Hedgie, I don't mind the newbie designation at all and as Judie points out, it gives me some wiggle room in making errors ! Duck Lips, love it ! He has an arrogance that rubs me the wrong way,too.
Pammy Sue, we'll miss you while you're at your parents house, but what a lovely thing to do for them and your grandma, too !
Sorry I missed all that Decorah action this afternoon. That's what's nice about this blog. You can miss stuff, but know the Momsters will bring you up to date !
Andrew is in music education and will be a band director when he grows up. So proud of him.
Wow, Sharon, that's fantastic ! You have many proud moments ahead and we'll all be rooting for him, too ! I love band concerts and performances. Next month and through August I'll be enjoying Sunday evening band concerts at a nearby park. Community bands from all over central Ohio take turns providing the rousing entertainment.
Does musical talent run in your family, Sharon ?
Good grief that Decorah nest is a mess! Dead bodies all over the place! They really need to clean it up, it's a wonder there's enough room for those chicks!
Turd is in the nest.
Thanks for the heads up, Hedgie. Made me realize I had to refresh. Right at 6pm, huh ?
Yes, Sharon, thanks for sharing your creative avatar!!
Judie, Judie, Judie! Being a newbie doesn't save them from getting LOL's for typos!!! We just have to take advantage of those to add them to the dictionary!!!
Oh no, I think I see a Jerk.
He's just sitting there as if he OWNS the place. ARGH!
Maybe Belle and Liberty went out for dinner at the river......♫♪Shall We Gather at the River♪♫ sounds like a plan...TEAM LIBERTY!
Oh, phooey, I was afraid that would be letting us off too easy ?
Sometimes that black on the top of his head looks like one blob, but this view and lighting shows multiple spots. He's got a lot of maturing to do !
I tell you that Decorah nest sure has a smorgasbord going on there.
HEY JERK - CAN YOU HEAR ME???
TEAM LIBERTY!!!!
TEAM LIBERTY!!!!
TEAM LIBERTY!!!!
Kay IM, the only musical talent in the family belongs to Andrew. I can play a mean iPod though!
Sharon I don't think he really cares what you think about him or what you call him. I think he is in a "stupor".
Maria, housekeeping must not be a priority when they're busy flinging chickees around the nest!!!
LOL, Sharon ! You've got me beat with that iPod. Of course, I'm sure I'm a generation ahead of you and it's all I can do to keep up with you young whippersnappers.
Here is a good one: How many of you got back $3000.00 or more from your taxes? That is what they just said most people are getting back. Well dang I have to get back in line. LOL
Looks like turd bird is calling out. Don't listen to him, Belle.
He heard Sharon and he's talking back. Impudent little turd, ain't he ?
Yes hedgie, that one little guy is a beast! He's always biting something.... I just hope one of them doesn't accidentally fling him right out. He grabs and holds on! Beast!
Did he bring anything in to eat?
If not he is enjoying his meals out. Big spender!!!
Dana, I think the only people getting 3000.00 back are members of the House and Senate, plus the legislators in each of our States !
Hedgie-Lynn did you read in newspaper today. About the resturant down here in the little shopping area past WalMart?
Wonder if Belle is sitting up in the tree?
I joined your club Sharon....will later return to my other avarat.
Is anybody watching our nest?
avatar not avarat
Truder in the nest....best look at him I think I've had yet
I've had to refresh for the third time since he landed in the nest about 32 minutes ago. He's just staying a the 6 o'clock position and looking around.
So I wonder who the people who said this was Lib with an injury on his head can explain all the dark feathers scattered throughout Jerk's head?
That spot on his head is really alot bigger than I realized.
He does sit there like he owns the joint! Urgh! Seems very content with his feathers blowing in the wind.
Hi, I see our young Romeo is sitting in the nest. Picture is better. I had not looked at the live feed for awhile. I've been pretty busy.
Finally figured out why I could not get the electronic gradebook to work properly--with the help of a fellow teacher--I was trying to make it 3rd quarter, but it is 4th. Now I can get more organized, but still have much to do. At least I can start posting grades.
Kathryn is going to need to use the computer tonight because she has to take care of her taxes. I still have to do mine, but she needs to get together with Tom, so it'll take them a bit longer.
Surely they cannot still believe that. An injury would have healed by now !
Yeah...I don't know who they are saying is getting back 3000.00 but it's not me!
Well he is "confused"...no real name, not fully mature, doesn't know who likes him, needs a female and not sure Belle wants him and probably feels lonely. Now how would that make you look...??? lol
Yes, I was noticing all of the dark feathers, too, Sharon. It is a good view.
Sharon, they can't! It's just Lib with an injury! Don't get me started!
This is one of the best shots we have had of him and one of the longest. The color is really good on the cam.
I never felt it was Lib with an injury. I was there on March 18th Friday. Seen Belle, seen intruder, and seen Liberty.
Got a screen grab of this young guy.
Stupid people! Sorry Paula! Didn't mean to ruffle your feathers. :)
Right, WVgal Dana, he's suffering from an inferiority complex. He needs therapy !
Shirley Even if the government shuts down Friday. Taxes are still due same date.
You can get a pretty good look at his feet, too.
Kay IM that is funny LOL cracks me up
Someone in OD still saying today that it could be Lib! Where have they been? Don't know why I am reading that when the experience seems to be with all you wonderful people here. I'm not sure how I got so lucky to join this group, but I sure am glad that I did.
He wears "bigger shoes" than Liberty. Liberty had just the right feeties ( :
No, Sharon, it's OK. Someone said somewhere that this is their way of dealing with an unpleasant story...they say it's Lib with an injury instead of coming to grips with the truth...it's easier to deal with that way, rather than saying it's an intruder!
We are happy to have you, DanaMo.
You said it well, DanoMo. Reading comments at OD just raises the blood pressure. Who needs that ?
Right, and to me it is just common sense.
Thanks.
I know you use the feeties to identify Lit, DanaWV, so I wanted to focus on them for a bit. It might be pretty hard to identify him once he gets his adult plumage, so we need to keep a close watch on this fella.
When you enlarge the screen you can see that the whole top of his head is black.
We'll have to keep an eye on the tail feathers as well...right now they are uneven, probably due to molting. But we need to keep a watch on the shape of the tail IE rounded, square, etc.
Hi everyone!
Sharon, congrats to you and Andrew. A muscian in the family is great. Love your avatar.
So Phoebe's little ones are leaving the nest? Must talk to her and ask how she does it.
The intruder has been in the nest for 3 refreshes here. Is he/she planning on staying? Just gave a big yawn. ☺☺☺
Waiting for Jim's call that he's on his way home. Youngest is making supper tonight.
I think I have bursitis in my right hip. Used the heating pad but it wasn't helping so I'll try an ice pack.
Off to check on my kitchen.... later
By the way I did find out. That for several days NCTC "DID SEARCH FOR LIBERTY-well they don't call him by name they say resident male". They found a Great Horned Owl dead but no eagle dead or injured.
Don't know if it's lighting, dirt or food, but I see some dark on the left side of the beak as well.
You can see lots of the dark today on top for sure...and the sides of head too.
Hi Diann, hope your hip feels much better soon.
Paula, I have never been that good at identifying Lib, but I am trying to get some shots so we can have something to go by.
Where did you hear that, Dana?
Is he watching something now?
I'm beginning to think this is a
One Man Show..........
What time did Turd show up?
Loose feather on his back now.
Me? No WV Dana?
He showed up at 6 o'clock.
Thanks Kay. Wow he's been in the nest by himself almost an hour.
Turd Bird PoOf
Something has his attention. Oh and now he's calling out. Wow too bad we didn't have sound! And gone!
Calling, and then he took off.
Intruder called out like upset and flew up....maybe landed in tree?
It looked like he flew straight up or a little backwards.
More jiggling of tree
I wonder if that's our show for the night.
I don't like the sound being off, but I am grateful for the picture. Usually I can hear when something is happening and I don't have to sit at the computer.
Took off pretty much straight up.
Would like to see what got him going.
Phew, I thought he'd never leave. Now I can get something to eat, watch the Newshour on PBS and get set for DWTS ! Later......
Missed the fly-off. Had to refresh AGAIN!
JIm's on his way. Off to eat.
...later
Me DanaWV called and talked with Steve at NCTC. During our talk ask him about the search. He said they did several days search. Even another after Deb from Hancock forum ask for one. He mentioned they only found a Great Horned Owl.
I did not start taking pics until
6:30pm I'll wait for others to put
theirs in album Holler when you're done
Me DanaWV also mentioned to Steve did anyone tell him the area I seen Liberty come from on March 18th. He said no....He said he will mention that to those looking. Cause they didn't know he could be in that area I seem him come from.
Thanks for the Info, DanaWV
PA NANA which is Diana I hope you get some relief from that terrible pain.
I was actually waiting for Steve to come on here or an opening new thread and tell about it. Can't wait forever and then it doesn't get to be known.
Was that a poop shoot?
Had a decent day today, but I am so tired.
Kids did reasonably well on the Poe test. Of course, they should have since I let them use the book and their notes. But some got grades in the 20% range. That is really sad.
It is not good to say to the teacher that you can't do a part of the test because you were absent when we did that stuff. And even worse to try to claim that it is the teacher's fault that you never made up the assignments, especially when back work is left on the board for several days. I don't plan to chase them down the hall waving assignments.
Yes, DanaWV, thank you.
Dana, Steve probably didn't know that we knew about that request....and I know that Deb at Hancock is out of town, so maybe he emailed her and she hasn't had a chance to post that information on Hancock yet. I do hope they send her a reply.
If those markings on that intruder are immature markings. They are going to change. So we need to find like Paula mentioned. Other ways to ID this intruder.
Darn wish we could paint his toenails lol That would make him stand out!!
Yup, Shirley, they have to take responsibility at some point.
Going out to throw the ball for Nugz, he's been out there barking at me :)
What color would you want to paint his toenails. Dana?
STEVE I loved your pictures on the face book page and Hey does any one have a good picture of Lib I looked on the Nctc facebook page and can't tell which is which If anyone does please feel free to get my email address from my profile or my face book address also listed on my profile here That was really a long visit this time but so sad no belle
Almost any color you might want is available now. The biggest problem would be grabbing the eagle.
And holding him down. He might not be submissive for us.
Both parents at Decorah and I think food has been brought in lol
More Food!!!!!!
We could always put a ring around his neck! or through his nose? :)
No food brought in. Eagle flew in and was eating the black bird.
Feeding chicks now...hope the 1st born doesn't do a flying trick again.
That's a thought, Sharon.
Trying to see the egg. I see the 2 chicks but not the egg?????
Well, teenagers are getting lots of piercings now. This one might look interesting with a nose ring.
Or a beak ring. Maybe red, white, and blue.
Did anyone see the egg at Decorah???
No red, white and blue ---- that is for a true American Bald Eagle...he hasn't showed us that yet!!!!!!
The only way I would know it is Lib would be the PERCH... This Truder has
not once been on the PERCH... Belle
was up on it once.
I personally could never use the
FEET to identify. I think the middle talon on all eagles is long in length.
The feathered collar or the Tail or
a small white feather on a shoulder or
a mark by the beak....those are the things I am trying to remember.
yes Dana the egg was there, I saw it.
Going to go take a shower and get comfy. Maybe a fire would be nice tonight.
Guess I'd better check my school e-mail. One of my students was going to send me a message because he wants to know his grade on the test. It seems the lad got grounded after my most recent spate of calls to parents. Got hold of Dad, and Dad was not happy with him.
Thanks Maria about seeing the egg.
Judy are you referring to Steve Chase?
His personal page? I just can't find
pics.
OR is it the Turnmeyer page?
I didn't realize that there were more than one person who had the Team Liberty avatar. I can't find you
Sharon......... lol
You're welcome Dana, it was between the two little fluff balls I saw it as they were moving!
wvDana, I knew about the restaurant and the deer carcass when it happened. A friend saw it and called it in. Health dept. got it on their website really fast.....I wondered how long it would take to make the newspaper....we all got a good laugh out of this morning.
Jeopardy time, and it's terrific TV Tuesday. Later, gators.
Diann, hope your hip feels better!
And just boot those "birds" out of your nest!!
There this will help you out a little Mema Jo.
Hedgie-Lynn I sure am glad someone seen it and they were there fast.
If that placed had opened the next day serving people A lot of people would have been sick.
Turnmeyer page is where I looked also on the Nctc eagle cam and the NCTC eagle cam facebook page nothing that says just Lib
I have not ate there. I looked it up in the phone book. Didn't even know that resturant was there. Maybe best I didn't know.
JudyE probably in mostly the albums on Eaglet-Momster. Plenty pictures there of Liberty.
Mema JoTurnmeyer page is where I looked also on the Nctc eagle cam and the NCTC eagle cam facebook page nothing that says just Lib

Decorah chicks - love it when they peek out from under the adult and yell
"let me out of here". They just did it
They are getting fish for dinner..
I'll go look through some of Momster pics for Liberty. Today's pics are
there for you.
