keeping the Loon Cam open of course
'Night Hedgie xox

Lolly said...

Good night, Shirley. Keeping you in prayer. (((Hugs)))

Lolly said...

That Loon is still in that awkward position. Guess she knows what she is doing!

Lolly said...

Did Lynn, slip away too? Nite Lynn! ((Hugs)) for you and kisses for Liesl.

carolinabeachmom said...

Well I guess I am the next one to head for bed. The morning comes too early. Hope you all have a nice evening, the loon finaly gets comfy on her new egg, and all will be right with the world. Tomorrow brings a new day and a new beginning.

NatureNut said...

Put loon & her egg on blog.
BBL, maybe ☺

Lynne2 said...

OMG I cannot believe I just missed the LOON laying her egg!!!!!

Lynne2 said...

well anyway, Margy, anyone else....I just added the Grosbeak pics and an apple tree and a deer to the blog that I forgot to put in earlier! Just scroll past the stuff you already saw!

Lolly said...

Lynne, it was so cool! She was in the perfect position to watch. I suspected from her motions that it was about to come. Sure enough! And, she has been in this awkward position ever since.

Lynne2 said...

I guess she is either recovering or getting ready for another!

Lolly said...

I think she is recovering and the egg needs to dry. She is doing her thing!

Lolly said...

Loon call!

Lynne2 said...

oooooooo!

Lynne2 said...

it's day calling out "my egg is here, my egg is here"

Lynne2 said...

and by DAY I meant DAD

Lolly said...

LOL I was thinking the same thing.

Lolly said...

I knew what you meant!

Lolly said...

Doing my nails and missed her changing position.

Lynne2 said...

up, egg roll, and down....boy, Loons are a bit awkward on land!

magpie said...

Oh Lynne
Thank you!
the Blue Grosbeak...
I hope you didn't miss the egg-laying because you were accommodating my needs !
I missed Mom scootching the egg up underneath herself also !

Lolly said...

She was in that awkward position for 30 minutes. Just watched her now try to roll the egg. It was funny, kept rolling back and then she just sort of fell on the egg.

magpie said...

LOL
because I was checking your pictures Lynne !
Not too long now, the Mama Deer will be having their babies !

Lolly said...

Well, I am now feeling like a loon granny. That is a little different from being a loony granny. ☺

magpie said...

Love it Lolly!

Lynne2 said...

wow, this is weird. I saw my first Blue Grosbeak today and so did Tracey...only she found a dead one outside of Irvine that appears to have flown into the big glass window :(

Costume Lady said...

You know, I didn't even know that there was such a thing as a Blue Grossbeak! What a beautiful bird, LYNNE!

Lynne2 said...

I knew there was, but never DREAMED I'd see any! It's been 15 years since my last Rosebreasted and Evening GB sightings.

Costume Lady said...

Had a good day with GG...hip is a little better, but she now has a chest cold & cough...keeping a close eye on that!

GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
PRAYERS FOR ALL

Mema Jo said...

I love the MN Loon and her egg. I'll be watching for her to slip off into the water - I love the
golden looking loon egg.

I was caught up in TV land this evening. Alexis and her dad were
up for spaghetti dinner here. She
still loves her meatballs.
I love seeing at night Lacey lying down near Lily who is sprawled out.

Lynne2 said...

oh no, poor GG. Prayers that she gets better FAST!

Heading to bed....good night and prayers for all!

Mema Jo said...

If any of you did NOT get the b-day list email me with your
correct email address.

Mema Jo said...

Has Looney Lolly gone to
La La Land?

Lolly said...

Loony Lolly is here and thinking about going to La La Land. LOL

Lolly said...

I left and went over to facebook. I need to scan a picture of my Momma and put on as my profile there.

Lolly said...

If I put it on fb, might do the same here. We can do avatara of our mothers.

Lolly said...

not avatara, avatars!

Lolly said...

Loony Lolly is heading to the shower. Will be back to say good night!

Mema Jo said...

Joking Jo is going to jog down the hallway very soon.

Loved the nest videos JudyE sent
around.

The eye of the loon at night is like a diamond!

Mema Jo said...

I am going to cal it a day

Good Night All & Prayers for all
your needs.
Hugs to all ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Lolly said...

Yes, prayers for GG. Do keep a close eye on her. Bless her!

I am all clean and comfy and ready for bed and Jack is watching the Rangers! Guess I will read for a while.

Nite all! Prayers for Shirley, GG and all Gods creatures! (oh, and now we are channel hopping..Dallas basketball on now!

((((Hugs))))

Lolly said...

Loony Lolly heading to La La Land!

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone,
Guess I'm getting here late enough that I've missed a bunch of you!

Just got home from school a little while ago, and have been trying to catch up. Wow, thank you for your school prayers for me! I got an A on last week's English exam! Thank God!

Talked with the Dean of Admissions when I went to school (early, on purpose). He said that he wants me to keep him in the loop so he can monitor the situation. He said that a lot of transcriptionists who have their own business often work "in their pajamas"--but he will check out this person anyway. He says he has a couple of possible Externship positions for me. One, I think, is with a transcription service that deals with the police dept. a lot, and that does a lot of reports regarding people who have been raped and/or sexually abused. The other one he mentioned might be at Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach. He's going to see the lady at the first place tomorrow, so will keep me posted. He said that she might even offer me a job once she sees how I do. Please say some prayers!!! It would be WONDERFUL to have a paycheck again after 3+ years of unemployment! The Dean wants me to drop off the cassette tapes to him when I go to school tomorrow. He will see whether the computer guru at the school can get them onto CDs. So, I guess things are looking much better!

Well, I'm pretty brain weary after school, so think I'll adjourn to the living room for some mindless TV and unwind.

Judie, thank you for the night light!
Hope your appt. with the surgeon goes very well tomorrow!

Checking to make sure the porch light is on. Enabling both security systems. Prayers going up for everyone here, and for all creatures.
Special healing prayers for GG!!
Hope everyone sleeps well. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Right now I need some good rest. God bless, and goodnight! Love all of you! :o]

Lori O. said...

Good Morning Early Birders KAY, MARGY, DANAMO, JUDY E, MEGAN, JUDIE, SHIRLEY, LYNNE and anyone else who happens to rise with the Eagles and roosters!

Lori O. said...

It's not raining this morning so maybe we will get a visit from Belle & Truder!

Kay said...

Good morning, Lori ! I see Belle and Truder finally paid a visit yesterday evening. Hope they'll honor us that way today.

♫HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO CAROLYN H. AND HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO BIRTHDAY TO BOB Q. !!!♫

Red, good comment on OC, but I don't think anything we Momsters and Dadsters have said penetrates many of the minds on that forum.:( Oh, well, it confirms the very reason a bunch of us fled and landed here !

Lynne2, love those Easter Eggs and the fact that your family does not believe such things are only for kids !

Kay said...

Lori, is tomorrow the Friday/Monday you are to be off work ?

Lori O. said...

No Kay - I'll be off Monday and next Friday. Good Morning!!!

Kay said...

JudyE, I see you've decided to join me in just saying "Eagle on nest" or something similar. Too often I can't pick up on whether there are black head feathers immediately. The lighting plays tricks at times.

Kay said...

Ah, so. You don't get a nice loonnng weekend out of it, but a couple of extra days off next week ! Hope you can sleep in both days !

Kay said...

Just noticed we've got Color ! Not sure the exact minute it changed over.

Kay said...

I agree with the President's decision on the photos. These things always bring out the conspiracy theorists and they won't be convince any picture is authentic anyway ! Glad he and his security people do not want to do anything that will put our precious troops in more danger.

DanaMo said...

Morning Kay and Lori.

Lori O. said...

I'm definitely going to try to sleep in until at least 5!

It's soooo nice to have you here this morning Kay. We're going to have to visit each others states sometime.

Kay said...

Hello there, Dana ! How goes the wind down of the school year ? Are your ducks now visiting your pool daily ?

Lori O. said...

My first chuckle of the morning, one of the three former NBG eaglets (or Threeaglets) doing his wingercizes.

Kay said...

I'm in complete agreement on visiting each other, Lori. Columbus is beautifully located on I70, the major crossroad for anyone heading Westward. Dana has already promised to grant me a few minutes of her time on one of her trips to Dayton Univercity late this summer. Lynn has also said she'll visit if and when she heads for St. Louis for time with her Mom. The welcome mat is out at all times for any Momster or Dadster !

Lori O. said...

Good Morning Dana.

:)

Kay said...

Isn't it wonderful to be able to watch the NBG triplets ! I think they're amazing, just the way they are !☺

Lori O. said...

And Kay, anytime you need a break, or want a vacation I have a peaceful place where I think you would enjoy relaxing and not be far from Jo, Paula, Megan, Wanda, Margy, Lynn and lots of Momsters.
Yes, always happy at the thought of seeing anyone from the EM/Dadsters family. :)

Lori O. said...

back in a flash.... BBIAM

Kay said...

Thanks for the open invitation, Lori ! I'm tentatively entertaining the idea of an Open House in the Fall visit. I know some of you plan to gather in June if at all possible, but my June is booked solid. :( However, I will be in town, so can arrange to see any of you passing through Columbus in June !

DanaMo said...

The ducks are becoming a problem. Yesterday they didn't show up, but just now I turned around to a racket in the pool (I thought the dogs jumped in) only to find 7, yes, 7 ducks in my pool. The Flying labs have been given strict instructions that ducks are not allowed in the pool and they should make sure they see to it that they do not become permanent residents! They are bird dogs dang it!

Lori O. said...

Oh KAY you would also be close to Dana at my place!

Kay said...

Oh, Dana, isn't it a shame the ducks are attracted to your pool when there are plenty of natural watering holes in the area ? BooHiss ! A single dog would probably send out the alarm, but when we have two or more they are often more keyed in on each other than anything else. That tidbit was shared with me years ago by a vet. She said, "if you want a watch dog, just adopt one dog".

Kay said...

Yippee ! I'm getting another granddog/grandson day today. Julie was able to get a hair appt. this afternoon. I'm also looking forward to the weekend as I'll have Malcolm with me from 3 p.m. tomorrow until about 5 p.m. on Sunday. It will be his first time for an overnight away from home since adopted Dec. 20th.

Kay said...

I didn't always follow that vet's advice, by the way. There was a time when I had a standard long haired doxie, a dobie and a Heinz 57 mutt all at one time.

Kay said...

All three were rescue dogs, catching me during a period of time when I just could not say no.

magpie said...

Good Morning Eagle Pals !

Wow, nice shadow play on the nest

Sun ?? for the whole day ??

Hope Megan is digging it !

Sounds like great grandson and Malcolm plans, Kay!

Hope the day is starting out good for all Eaglet Dadsters and Momsters

Lori O. said...

Kay, how old is Malcolm? That's so great your kids have you nearby and that you really enjoy having him.

magpie said...

How about that egg-laying event at the Loon Cam ?
And thanks again to Megan for rounding us for that one with the link last week !

magpie said...

with the price of gasoline, we might need to set up some bicycle road trips to all these neat Momsters Roosts ☺

magpie said...

seems like a good morning for some early morning fishing...maybe that's where our feathered friends are this morning !

magpie said...

next week I back up my schedule so I can be here earlier with the Early Birds !

Kay said...

Good morning, Margy ! Whatcha' fixin' to take for lunch today ?

Lori, Malcolm is estimated to be 2 years old. We didn't know at adoption time if he was trained in any way, but it turned out he was. Someone had done a good job with him. He'd not been neutered and has a tracer chip that had never been activated. Wish he could talk and tell us about his first couple of years !

magpie said...

for Andrea:
sounds like there is some improvement with the school situation and attention to your efforts....Congratulations on that English A !!
(( hugs)) to Emma and Ken, and yourself !! ♥

Kay said...

I missed the loon egg laying. She's a beautiful loon !

magpie said...

DanaMo
that is a crazy situation with your ducks in the pool....
hope the doggy patrol can get a handle on it !

Missing JudyE this morning...

Judie Best wishes on your trip to the surgeon....

Kay said...

JudyE is off on Thrus/Fri, so may have been able to sleep in. Hope she has great fun with Jordyn today and tomorrow !

magpie said...

probably another tomato sandwich or two, Lori ☺

It's already time for me to scram,
was up late watching the Loons...
that's a neat site

Best wishes to all, for a Good, Safe Day...with lots of sunshine and good health

tonight, maybe we see Infant Moon in the West around dusk...and might be good skies for an ISS Flyover...finally...

Lori O. said...

Hey Margy! Good Morning. I'd love to go out on a wild flower photo trip with you sometime. That would be so fun and obviously you know all the good spots.

magpie said...

yes, Kay...you are right about JudyE - thanks for the reminder...I hope her two days are lots of fun...

okay, guess this is it for me for awhile

Happy Birthday to Bob Q...our favorite photographer !
would be nice to hear he has the day off !!

ttfn xoxo ♥

Kay said...

Thanks for the heads up on the Infant Moon and ISS viewing possibilty. We so often have cloudy skies here. Not the best vantage point for sky watchers.

floralgirl said...

Morning all;)
Today's nest weather ain't too bad-
Sunny. Highs in the mid 60s. Northwest winds 15 to 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph. I'll just pretend I don't see that mention of wind...

Kay said...

Hi Megan ! Margy may be right when she says Bell and Truder may be taking advantage of a good fishing day. The best weather day this week !

Kay said...

Blackbird skittering around nest with something white in beak. I'm guessing that means our big birds are not around.

So, going into LM. Want to check e-mail, other nests, newspapers before Malcolm time.

Have a grrreaat day, a smooooth day all !

{{{{{{Group Hug !!!!!}}}}}}}}

JudyEddy said...

Good morning one and all just getting ready to go pick up Jordyn I hope you all have a great day in no matter what you do Looks like no visit HUH
POPCORN KITTENS

Lori O. said...

Bye Kay - enjoy your day.

Hello Megan!

Count me in LM, too, I'll be watching hoping they show up!

floralgirl said...

Hi Kay, Bye Kay:) Hello Lori!
Had to walk outside and check the heater, overslept this morning...

JudyEddy said...

hedgie said...

Good morning, and

a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to BOB QUINN!!!!!

Judie said...

Good morning.

Happy birthday to Carolyn and Bob Q.
Wishing you both a special day.

Andy, congratulations on the A (as always) and surely hope you can snag an appropriate externship.

Wishing everyone a wonderful day.

stronghunter said...

Good morning,

I see the loon egg and there seems to be at least one loon in the water. No loon in the nest right now.

Trying to get organized for the day. I need to put together tomorrow's plans as well.

Have a good day, everyone.

Good post about Liberty, Bill. I have hesitated to say much.

stronghunter said...

Happy birthday to Carolyn and Bob.

hedgie said...

Lynne, is the inverted red cup thingy on your hummer feeder to prevent the ants from getting to it? Mine feeder is just like yours, but it didn;t come with that feature. I slathered the planter hanger with vaseline! So far, so good.


Margy.....did you forget to tell us something about Tues. night????
See that I was right to be leery of your generosity the night of the storm.

hedgie said...

Judie....I will always laugh when I think of you, Bob, MM and Loretta and the FEATHERS at Open House dinner in '09!!!!!

hedgie said...

Andy, glad that the Dean is interested in you---and that situation! The police gig would be a good one, I'm sure. More interesting than the hospital! Good luck!!!

Kay said...

NEW THREAD !!!! COME ON OVER !!!!

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning -- sunshine yeah!!!! Good Morning to all that has been in and left and come back and Lurkers.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR RUMBLING AROUND MAN "BOB QUINN". Any directions will be given by maps lol. Teaseing....

Hedgie-Lynn you got the right doggie now ( :

I don't know who on here starting the Grosbeak birds. Seen one yesterday...stop and just sit and watched it for awhile.

Thanks Scott for the pictures and video.

Sharon that sounds so wonderful. A Spritual weekend at Cedar Lakes. My heart is with you ( :

Well I guess #11-0207 she is flying and soaring, maybe
heading to home. Wonder how long they had her. Thanks Lynne2.

Judie prayers and hope thing are fine.

JudyE that is exactly what I do. I look through the eyes of the comments of our great photographer
and those on adventures. I dream I am there with them as they take me on their trips.

Thanks Hedgie-Lynn for putting up the link Animals Seized. Shame :(

I have a "mariadangeloart as Maria from Newton, NJ"????
