I try to make notes on paper as I go along
some put their notes over on Word Pad
Lori, thought you would be sawing logs by now!!
Liesl is still worn out from last evening....maybe I should join her for a nap. But trial set to resume from lunch break in about 10 min. so guess I won't!
Loretta, GREAT pic of you a nd your Dad. Glad you found it!
Hoda, I think the wind is causing the problems with the cam....very disconcerting, isn't it? Can't watch it when it does that!
The street riots are insane. I think they should arrest every one of those people.
Lolly, is Micahel able to see the parade from his office?
Hoda -
yes....some people get carried away and ruin things for everyone...
we have had plenty of that here in the USA -
is, embarassing......
so we surely can understand and relate !
Pitiful though isn't it !
okay, must go gack to work, can be more sociable after 1600
ttfn take care and be careful
xoxox
Yep, I would say the swing caused a bit of a flutter----three of the birds were spooked! They are supposed to add another water thing today sometime.
LORI and KAY, the morning report of Belle and Truder's visit was TERRIFIC. It gave me a great picture in my mind as to what was going on. I think they are a couple and that they are working out their relationship with all the beaking and infighting going on.
I am concerned about the camera as I type I see it doing not so good changes in the quality of the feed.
LOLLY how was the doctor's appointment and are you well?
LORI AND WV_GAL DANA...yes I am retired. I retired in 2003 after 30 years teaching in Québec and Alberta. I moved to BC in the same year and I am learning to be the learner again and this is why I like to discover who I am out of my comfort zone...within reason of course, I do not feel a need to discover who I am within doing dangerous or stupid things though...even though I was tempted to go BUNGY JUMPING and figured I ought to lose weight before I do that so I would not travel at great speeds!!!;^) ;^)!!! I think we are so lucky to be able to retire and stil get a cheque deposited in the bank that covers all of my bills and allows me to have a bit extra for activities...I can not wait to be 65 as the Canadian Government will deposit two cheques in my account then!!! Canada Pension, I paid into this fund, and also Old Age Security and that I have not paid for, yet they will deposit this cheque too...This part blows my mind and I feel so grateful that I immigrated and made a go of it here...
I am enjoying my tea and my visit. Thank you all. I am going to head out to go to yoga and the post office, even though they are locked out...I made them some cookies and will take it to them as they stand in the rain.BBL
wELL, Hedgie, the puter seems to be working OK this morning, and the cold, still with me, but it's a lot better than at its peak.
Thanks for the query.
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
I think the strange immature eaglet is on the BWE nest right now.
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
Good afternoon Eagle Buds got Miss Jordyn down for a nap uploading some videos to FB
Boy at 11 last night just as I heading to bed big BOOM BOOM POW POW Odd I feel asleep right a way must have been tired Its our normal summer heat of the day and sea breeze shows just later at night because of the heat at nite also and this am north or us was getting big storms While we were at the park you could feel it in the air the rain but it must have rained it self out before comin south Really cooled it down for a bit. Funny thing is a lady and her kids where there we talked girls are same age and when we went to MacDonald's they were there also I went to a new one today didn't know it was there they have nice play equipment and it is so much bigger that the others Nice find I just love it!
Was nice sleeping in this am but I did miss our resident pair so glad you were there to report it LORI and KAY I just did a quick skim of the am blog to see if we had company Haven't even begun to read any of it Got to go start laundry also Dinner tonight at Angies so I probably won't see them or you guys either I think it hurts her feelings if I log on to their computer and Carl says when I do the different eagle sites his security comes up afterward I have never had any problem with my Norton so I told him it was just his faulty security they have Viper I think.
WOW Facebook is kicking butt today my video I know are short some not even a min but only is taking seconds to upload Odd how certain times of the day it works faster I wonder if it has anything to do with usage of peeps all over Just wondering out loud.
BBL got to get busy
Lori thank you for posting the video of the eaglets and the swing.
Don't like how they tear things up in the towns after hockey games!!! I don't watch it because of how they act. I would rather watch a good boxing match instead.
Is the trail still going on or have they taken a break??
Well I am home and just missed the
split by 10!
All is well and Wegmans is
huge! Just HUGE !
Check this out to cute The triplet swing breaks was on face book
The video JudyE made from a visit
yesterday "Broke me up" I'm still
not certain of Belle and Truder's
relationship! The scene was when
Belle prepared to fly out and Truder was pecking at her tail
feathers! lol
Ok silly question I count four eagles in the pen where did the other come from?? I downloaded a video of me and Jordyn on the merry go round and three pictures Pic are in Blog Internet pictures and Jordyn video off course
PICTURES from Internet
JORDYN VIDEOS
JudyE---4th eagle was a single rescue from Virginia BEach...close enough in age that they decided to put it in with the triplets. I mentioned a day ro two ago that they were going to do that.
How was your Wegman's lunch, Jo?
Raining here....not hard. Hope it's headed for Megan's---where every drop helps!
Check out this guy's work:
Jason Tennant carvings
Loretta, lost your cam! Hope it comes back online soon!
Hi, Gang,
Checking in here quickly.
Lynn, LOL I don't think you'll have to turn me in for dog cruelty any time soon! Charlee and I are pretty evenly matched, I think. She's launched herself at the back of my knees a few times, and nearly sent me flying! She gets pretty jealous when I pay attention to Katie, so I have to separate them, and spend time with Charlee first. She's the alpha sister.
Golly, neither "mutt" wears a collar (though I'm sure they have microchips), so there's not much, other than "mush wrinkles" to hang onto! Gotta corner them, and hang on! Of course, both of them are delighted to think that I wanna play rough! Geesh! Good thing that they are both a couple of big marshmallows!
Talk about getting slimed, though! :o]
Watched the fly-tunnel video when
the swing broke and sent all of them in a tizzy.
Have you all checked out the BWE
nest like Jim said it looks like
the immature eagle there.
Wegmans-You don't want to go there
without some idea of what you would like to eat - everything imaginable. Seating is over ample
Check out is simple - the crowd is still there so it's not just a
go in and grab some food to eat.
The grocery part of the store is
very nice - For me it is on the other far side of town so not sure
I would go for grocery shopping.
Now for Paula it is great - on the
opposite corner of Paula's work
place and then just on light away
for her to be right up on 15N.It
was like a $10 shot for each of our lunches.
I will take you one day for lunch, Lynn.
Now hubby invited son and family
over for dinner - Thursday is
beginning to be Son's Day.
I am putting my feet up for an hr.
Hunter has baseball practice this afternoon. We are waiting to see if there will be rain that causes it to be cancelled.
I like eating at Wegmans. We have two restaurants in the store here at Fredericksburg. They are both good.
You are right, Jo. There is a lot of variety.
Hey all from work! Just had to tell you that we have a lab coming in who is in the process of having pups! Although, that's not a good thing maybe...she had the first one a noon, laboring since and no more pups so potential problem. I 'll just keep my mouth shut about why pet owners shouldn't be breeding their dogs, and pray all goes well. The dog is very overweight, besides.
TTFN!
oh, in my email there is a post that was just posted on Sunday's blog from someone named KIM and it's a spam about buying medications online....we are being watched.....
I changed my avatar - my Dad loved the male cardinal.
Lynne2 I hope things go well.
Just checked the Park ospreys & am surprised to see 2 chicks being fed by Momm, but the third is trying to sleep w/head down, closest to camera. Maybe it already ate. And now Dad came in w/a 2nd fish!!!
Good afternoon everyone. Haven't looked at any cams yet but just wanted to say hi.
Andy, your doggie stories are as funny as the student ones. You should seriously think about writing some day. Are you keeping a journal?
Lynne, hope the Lab will be okay. My step dad used to have hunting beagles and the female died trying to have her pups. We were young so I don't know the details, just that she wasn't in the pen next day. She/they weren't pets so it didn't bother us as much as when our pets died.
Lynne, to answer your question of very early this am. My script is Naproxen EC 500mg. Was originaly to take 2 a day, but cardiologist took one dose away. Mail order works for us - when it's working.
The cost is definitely a savings as it's through Jim's employer.
Have a good day and maybe we'll catch each other on another late night wandering.
Loretta, LOL! See you have the same type of garden helper. They must have gone to the same garden school (If it's brown or dying, pull it out)! I've lost a lot of plants that way, especially the bee balm.
Rain did not amount to anything again! Sun back out now.
Rain did not amount to anything again! Sun back out now.
Lynne---I'm confused.....we didn't have a Sunday thread....?????
Hope that poor mama dog is alright. Do you have to babysit tonight?
Genie/Jewell, HAPPY BIRTHDAY
BROTHER CAT is bound and determined to cruze at nite huh Didn't learn his lesson when he got lost Or maybe he has a girlfriend and hasn't told you about her LOL
LYNN2 probably a sinus infection like we humans get
I have only read a tiny bit of the blog tooo busy with Jordyn Off to Angies for dinner BBL
Gotta tell you a Jordyn story when she went down for nap we had taken her skorts off and put on a pull up Well she didn't want her short back when she got up for a nap she was running around just in her pull up and shirt and I said OH you have the cutest bubble butt
Let me take a picture of it Well she looked at me and said no and went and got her skorts and put them on Soooo funny she is
and I posted a picture on facebook of Jordyn drinking out of my thermo cup with coffee and this is what I put on it
Let me tell you the story behind this picture We were on our way to the park and Jordyn was eating the donut holes Angie got her and I said You know what is good with donuts Coffee and then Jordyn said want some as I was drinking coffee Like she wanted to try it after I said that .Cute
Enjoyed watching the victory celebration for the Mavericks. Cleaned house while watching.
Hoda...I am not sick. I have a very great nurse/practitioner that takes good care of me. I do take some meds and she wants a blood test every three months to make sure all counts are good...they usually are!! I am very healthy and in good shape. Plan on several long hikes in the moutains on our trip.☺
We were surprised to read about the rioting last night in Vancouver. Behavior like that is never pleasant and happens in the best of cities. The parade and celebration in Dallas today was very closely monitored. When the STARS won, their victory parade was marred by rioting, and they had won!!! Go figure!
WhooHoo! Bob has a photo on the cover of the latest edition of Save the Bay mag. Of an osprey, of course!!
See it here---and you can download the mag as a pdf!
Magazine
Feet have been down for awhile.
Judy I think you used good psychology to get Jayden to dress in her shorts - Bubble Butt would do it for me!
Company will be here shortly for dinner. I'll touch base later but
I'll try to keep the nest cam up during dinner. Hope they show.
Bob has a good pic on the magazine
cover! Thanks Lynn for Spotting it
Had to search for the credit, but finally found it. Thanks Lynn!
Congrats to Bob!! Wahooo!
Jo, had to snicker at "bubble butt would do it for me." LOL
Lolly, I never did find the credit---looked twice. Where was it??
Jo, Lisa posted it on FB---she gets the credit!
I was just watching and wondering about the NBG triplets. Are they going to take them to a hack tower when they are ready? I feel sorry for them with only the swing to land on. They need more branches.
Lynn, go all the way to end, then scroll back. Can not remember what page it was, but near the end.
Lolly, glad to know that the blood tests were routine to make sure everything is OK with the medication. I am so jealous about your trip to Colorado and I hope you enjoy the camping and the hikes...The fact that the whole family is joining in is an extra bonus, you will make good memories.It will be great when you come back and fill us in on your adventures...you said you were not taking the lap top with you this time as there is no electricity...it sounds like an excellent camp site.
Vancouver is a Disaster area and they are still cleaning up. Friends who live there are shaking there heads.
When September 11th happened I felt sooooo very ASHAMED that one of the terrorists was an Egyptian...I still feel shame over it...Today the news that Eymen El Zawahiri is to replace Ben Laden as leader of El Qaeda brings me the same sense of shame and I wonder how someone who was trained as a doctor could have so much hate and espouse to cause death and destruction.The fact that he is Egyptian born causes this shame and I pray that he is stopped before he causes more young people to commit acts of terror...My heart is heavy...
Rocky Mt. Natl Park is fantastic! There are nice restrooms with potties and sinks. Also, a plug in for curling iron. LOL Yes, I use it! We will be in our trailer, but our trailer is small and therefore the holding tanks are small as well. Laurel's family and Michael's family will be in tents. We used to tent camp but this older body wants a nice mattress. LOL No food can be left in tents to not encourage bears. (I would like to encourage them! LOL) Deer frequently mosey through the campsite. And, the stars.....they are amazing!!! We will stay up late to just look at the stars and try to spot satellites.
OH LOLLY I wished I was going too...it sounds great...Enjoy your time there with your family and NO YOU DO NOT WANT TO ENCOURAGE BEARS.
In the town of Nelson where I live, we had a Grizzly Bear and its cubs come to city limits and chased people in cars...we have fruit trees all over town and they were attracted to the fruit. They relocated them twice and they came back and two weeks ago the Fish and Wildlife Officers destroyed two of them as they found them in an elementary school play ground. It was the weekend so no kids were there...I felt sad for the grizzlies but also understood the need to protect the children...
Thanks, Lolly. Fine print on mailing cover! Duh!
HOda, ease your heart by remembering that the evil ones do not represent the majority of your former countrymen. Every country has misguided and/or insane fanatics. I think that the part that saddens me so much is that they all allude to religion as a reason.....
Something different happened for me on the cam. When it got to 14 minutes it kept going. Have they changed that?
Here is a link to pictures of Rocky Mt. Natl Park
Images of Rocky Mt. Natl Park
Hoda, I feel the same way as Hedgie. She worded it better than I ever could!!
I agree Hedgie/Lynn that the use of religion to justify those horrible acts of terror further compounds the atrocities committed...All the Abrahamic Faiths are one...So very misguided to make Islam a banner of terror by the very same people who claim to be members of that faith...
That's it LOLLY!!! I am packing my back pack on my way to Texas so I could travel with your family...;^)!!! WHAT aWESOME PICTURES...you will have to post lots of them on FB when you come back.
Thank you Eagle Eyed Sharon...God's Blessings to you ...
Lolly my live feed did not stop at the 14:45 mark either...it jsut kept going...no complaints from me...
Hoda,
You have no reason to feel shame because of the misdeeds of another Egyptian. There are people of all nationalities who have done terrible things.
Shirley, I hear what you all are saying and I send love and blessings your way...yet it is also easier said than done...when the hospitality that I experienced in the USA and the enthusiasm for growth and learning, when innovation and basically good honest human beings are attacked as happened to the USA on September 11th as one of the people who experienced all that is good from the US soul searching happens and the SHAME comes from deep within...how could it have happened. I spoke a lot with Dad about that and my American family agree with you on this blog, yet I think I understand it in my mind and not know it from my heart...so I take refuge in God's Grace and I ask help from God's Light.
Has anyone heard from Paula yet today? I do not think I read a post from her yet???
Wahooo...Hoda! Will be looking for you! Uh...do you mind sleeping in the car? LOL
We have been to the Canadian Rockies too. Not camping...well, sort of, we stayed in a cabin in Banff. They are beautiful but different. We want to go back!
Hoda I agree 100% with what Hedgie-Lynn said and what Shirley said. I am like Sharon. They worded it so well I could not have done better !!! Hoda I am so glad you joined our group. Don't be ashamed because of that. I love knowing you through your words and pictures. I pray one day like Chrissy in BC and Geula in Isreal that they would get to come over to the Open House we could meet them. Just as I pray that one day you Hoda yes from Egypt will get to come to the Open House and we all get to give you a HUG !!!
Lolly, you are funny!!!
I love the Canadian Rockies and where I taught school in Alberta was just a couple of hours from the town of Jasper Alberta, it is lovely there. I liked it even more than Banff. Banff was great in the seventies and the eighties but it is way too commercial now so Jasper is my spot of choice for the Canadian Rockies...it was fortunate that I was able to go play there for over twenty years period...
Enjoy your trip and make sure to take lots of pictures to post when you come back...
Thank you WV_GAL DANA...God's Grace and Blessings always be with you. This is a Great group, THANK YOU.
Remember Lolly "It's Me Bear" from Lily, Faith and Hope. ( :
Hoda sad when a bear has been relocated but then comes back and
they to do that. Like you said it was near a school. Still sad.
Come on Belle and Truder , I have to go at 8:15 to go paddling, it will only be 5:15 here, so I am sitting here cheering for them to arrive...keep an eye out for me and write your observations and I will read them the minute I come back...Thanks I will leave in a few more minutes and BBL
Go, Hoda, row row your boat!
Belle!!!!
NOW TRUDER!
Miss Belle arrives followed by Truder
Wow, can not believe I am seeing them twice today.!
They are just moving some leaves around. Looks like Truder wants a fight.
BOTH ARE SHOWING WHITE FEATHERS.
Yes when Belle flew in I thought "why is her feathers so messed up". Thought it was Truder. Then Truder flew in. Look at Belle's feathers???? Never looked like that during this time of year before. Can't be molting.
BellE IS LOOKING LIKE SHE MIGHT POOF!
POOF!!!
She is SO VERY GRACEFUL as she takes to wing...
BBL Gotta Go!!!
NOW IS TRUDER GOING TO POOF?
HE SEEMS TO BE HANGING AROUND.
GOING TO PREEN A LITTLE.
HE IS AT 11 AND JUST LOOKING AROUND.
THE NEST IS CERTAINLY MESSY! NOT VERY GOOD HOUSEKEEPERS!
TRUDER STILL JUST HANGING!
Some have called Truder Beau, and in Belle and Beau. How about Beau Truder.?LOL
Now he is digging in the middle of the nest.????
Oh, maybe he is going to clean up a little. Picked up some leaves and moved them to 4.
Food ??
HE ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE THE IS EATING, BUT I DO NOT THINK SO!
HE IS JUST RANDOMLY PECKING AT STICKS.
I see Truder....but missed Belle....:(
OH NO! Jack wants supper. Gotta go.
Lolly, I only time out on cam at 14 min. once a day....after that, it usually stays up until I turn it off.
When Belle left, Belle flew off and out , not up
maybe to the other perching branch we have seen the Eagles in before
or maybe to do some night fishing
Hello Eagle Pals ☺
My live feed has run straight through also
very unusual
things were kind of sparkly there for awhle
has settled down now, the live view that is
Hoda and Lolly: Banff is named after the Banffshire area of Scotland where my maternal ancestors came from! Many Scots settled there way back when!
I think Belle has filed for Separation
and Truder doesn't know it yet
I also have not seen a post from Paula today
Hello Paula and (( hugs ♥ )) whevever you are xoxo ♥
I mean
WHEREVER you are, Paula
new word whevever ...
Hi, Margy...how was your day?
Cam is acting up a bit---almost wonder if there's a loose connection and if the wind causes problem...
I still have Truder sitting at the
6:00 spot..
Don't think Belle would return so
he should go on home up to his branch.
Do any of you have any idea why Belle's feathers looked so bad????
Judie hasn't checked in, either, today.
Truder just lolling at the 5 facing left
No idea, Dana.
If Truder ends up being the permanent new guy, I plan to vote for Beau. I think B&B sounds good.
I think the wind, DanaWV
and maybe, shedding some winter feathers ???
Just a guess....
Yes, Hedgie, wondering if Judie noticed the kestrel chicks are all gone :( or maybe :) but I will miss the haws babies
Work was ok, thanks
new schedules are out
haven't digested it yet, I remain on 8-4 Tues - Sat
most others have 10-hour schedules
four on, three off or something like that
Hi Jo: Dinner all over? Bet your Thursday night "Dinner With Son and Family was nice!
How is Sammie today ??
xo
takes me several mins to type and post, can't catch my typoes in time
sorry
If the leaf by the tree trunk would not be blowing in that direction, we may not even see
Truder.
Think Truder a few seconds ago lightened his load.
You're probably right, Jo
Truder is waiting on Belle;
if she comes back with a fish....do you think she will share or eat it all before she returns ??
☺
Samantha - Last night she said she felt like there was something in her throat. Other than that she is ok. Made it through the night - I think Christine awaken her to give her some more meds so she didn't wake up in pain. There is a small incision on her outer ear with few stitches - they removed a prearicular sinus on her left ear and also her tonsils. She napped a good bit today but was up and about maybe a bit too much. Tonight will tell.
Thanks to all of you for keeping her in your thoughts and prayers.
Ok Jo, Thanks, and we will continue to do so until she is back to 100% Samantha
Wow did not expect Belle to return missed the fly-in
And Belle flies out from the 5
think she went to the branch this tme
Truder...
just left from the same spot more or less
An hour-long presence of one or both eagles
Nice!
Wow! Just came back from dinner and was surprised to see both eagles in the nest. Truly expected them to be gone. Now they have poofed!
Heading in to get my feet up. Haven't had them up at all today.
Prayers for Samantha, Paula, Diann, Lynne2 cats and any others that have needs for prayer.
Thanks for the report on Samantha, Jo. Glad she is doing well.
Hello Lolly
Truder was alone at the nest when Belle left the first time....
for about 35 mins or so
then Belle returned for about those last five mins you just saw
Glad you were able to see them twice today !
Wait until the day before you leave, and print out the ISS and other satellite flyover schedules...
Deare Paula,
I am so sorry to read about Nugz. Know he had happy weekends at the beach lately and always was loved by you.
oh my gosh eagle returns again
which one I missed it !
Poof goes Truder -
Night light is on
did that eagle bring in all those leaves???
Hello NC Suzan
Good to see you, and how are you ?
OK JO
So it was Truder, the Yo-Yo
shoulda known!
I turned off live feed thinking it was all over
I was talking with Jack and saw Truder come flying back in. I think Belle must have brought those leaves. They were not there before when Truder was alone. Well, I should say, I "think" they were not there. Have been wrong before!☺
Hoda....when we were in Banff last time one day we drove towards Jasper, stopping at all the sights. Of course we did not make it to Jasper with all the stops. The next day we drove like a bat out of h____ to where we had left off the previous day, again stopping at the sights on the last part of the drive but we made it to Jasper! Stayed there for a short visit and then headed back to Banff. I think it was on this drive we saw a wolf. We were so excited!
Good evening, everyone.
Was busy today and feeling tired. Bummer! But, laundry and ironing done and peanut butter cookies baked. So, I accomplished a few chores.
Yes, Margy. The Kestrel babes have gone to enjoy doing all things Kestrel. Will miss watching them.
Hoda, no need to feel shame. You are not responsible for the behavior of others, rioters or terrorists. You are a wonderful ambassadress for your native land and Canada, also.
Jo, Wegman's in our area is indeed huge, really huge. I need a motorized cart just to look around. However, the selections and varieties of all things edible are mind boggling.
Lori, Shirley, and Lolly - it is indeed sad to have an officer go bad. Usually they have issues with alcohol and domestic stuff. Consequences of the work they do. But, going bad is just really sad. Shakes the trust of so many who depend of them.
Seems there are lots of animal shenanigans these days. Wish I could join in that fun.
Lolly, hope Annie will maintain stability. Had to give two of our Siamese human thyroid meds.
Shirley, so cool about Hunter playing under the lights for the first time. Hope his team wins.
Happy Birthday, Genie.
Wanda, glad Bible School is so enjoyable but understand why you are looking forward to a break. Your schedule is too much. Hugs to GG, please and thank you.
Darth just came in. Says hi to all his friends -- especially his ladies.
Jim, glad you're feeling better.
Oh, and thank you Lori and Kay for the morning eaglet reports. Too early for me so I do appreciate.
Oh, nice report about the Carricks and Hornby twins. Cannot imagine how amazing it would be to live there and have the eagles to watch.
Going to try to do some reading before my eyelids fall down asleep.
The night light is set for 11:00pm for those who will be headed back the hallway, down the stairs, up the stairs, to the tub, to the recliner, or just stumbling in from the West Coast. Restful sleep for all.
Oh, forgot. I think Beau would be a nice name if Belle allows Truder to do is boy eagle thing next Fall.
Bye
Hi, Suzan! Long time no see! How are you dealing with summer heat and humidity? Sure that you are staying in a lot.
Oh good grief! Jo, I am sorry I let Samantha slip through my thoughts. Glad she is doing well and will send a prayer for her.
Judie...you tell Darth "Hi" from all of us. It about time for him to get back on the blog to tell us a good joke!☺
Hello and So Long, Judie
sounds like a busy day
hope the garden is blooming nicely
Yes we shall miss the little kestrel babies....
soooo pretty they were
Hello to Darth ☺
Lolly I was trying to do chores here and missed seeing if Belle brought those leaves in, but if she did, she must be trying to pretty up the nest...
Hello to Jack ☺
back to chores, will hobble back on here in a little bit
xo
OH my words I have 130 email comments to read but not right now Just got home from Angies got to get a shower BBIALW
Quick puppy report....Five alive, 2 stillborn. The 5th may or may not survive, difficult delivery. Two more to go. Owner took home with him and Megan, one of our techs who also breeds Labs, went home with him to make sure all was well. The poor mother is SO fat that she couldn't even reach her vaginal to help things along. Owner was not responsible in keeping her under watch while in heat so this was an unplanned breeding. They were going to wait til they got 15-20lbs off of her and breed her next year. DUH. The mom is black, the dad was the neighbors chocolate Lab, and so far, all pups are black. I got a couple of good pictures that I'll post....well, someday soon! Glad there didn't have to be a C-section. All employees attend a C-section so each person has a pup to stimulate, dry off, make sure breathing, ect. C-Sections go VERY fast! All pups are usually delivered in under 5 minutes.
Need to shower and sleep so I can get up early tomorrow! Hope everyone is well!
Keep your eyes to the skies, lots of storms popping up!
Good night and prayers for all!
Perhaps they are trying to camouflage the nest and then take
a vacation! Or maybe Belle is
trying to hide the nest from Truder. Ya never know!
There's our Judie!! Tell Darth Hi back!!! Are you packaging up some of those PB cookies to send to me?
I am out of goodies....will have graham crackers w/ PB spread on them for my snack!
We had a nice, quiet evening at home tonight thanks to baseball practice being canceled. Hunter was in uniform and we were ready to take off when Kathryn found out games and practices were called off. There was rain and lightning along with sunshine.
Storm upon us....going to call it a day here and shut this baby down. See lightening at nest---and nothing else but a black blob!
Pleasant dreams...stay safe....prayers for all!
Gadzooks. I should have come back after dinner for an eagle fix!Got involved w/TV. Altho I complain about all the WWII ashows, they had interesting stuff about Hitler--found a manuscript he wrote but didn't get published that was a sequel to Mein Kampf.Also about predictions from seers klike Nostradamus and others who told of 3 horrible periods & people~~WWI, Hitler & WWII and something about this time. Some think it might have been Sadam.My paternal grandmother was German & feared Hitler didn't die & was hiding in a cave!She always sent clothes & many from my Mom back to Europe.
Enough of that.
Saw some of the festivities? in both TX & Canada.Most Canadians were horrified,as you were Hoda. They said most trouble makers were not really fans.
Jo, prayers for Samantha. Ice cream was the best part. I remember learning to like Aspergum even tho it tasted kinda yucky.
Wrote Greg K. about osprey chick who was so quiet & he said it's just submissive from the others that picked on it, but should catch up.I hadn't observed that, only once when they were little.
Thoughts & prayers for Paula and any in need.
Train was performing tonight at the THE INAUGURAL WASHINGTON D.C.
STAND UP FOR HEROES. :)
Think I am going to read for a while. Probably wont last long as my eyes are already watering. They do get tired before the rest of me!
Went outside for a while but it is just so hot. Still 91 and there is a stiff wind. Really drying things out. Not fun to have a hot wind!
We do have chace of rain next week. Tues 20%, Wed 30%, and Thurs 40%. Whisper a little prayer for rain in Texas and let's get specific....rain on Lolly!!!!!!

(see I didn't immediately write about it so I forgot who)
HODA its sad that people have to act that way That has happened here also just stupid people.

Loretta
I was watching the two chicks at Loch Garten one morning last week, the older one was really pounding at the younger one, was rough to watch...but all seems to be okay there...

I think I will dream : Paddles UP on three, two, one,...swish, swish swish...Oh my so very many drills...
Thanks Judie for your kind words and God's Grace guide us all.
I remember seeing LARGE black wolves outside of Jasper town sight several times and they took my breath away Lolly.I am glad you know the Japser Banff highway Looly it is one of my favourite places in the world so much to see in terms of back country back packing.
Yes Margy many Scots did settle in the Banff area and the names of those who developed that area speak to their heritage.
Mema Jo I am glad to hear of Samantha's day and I hope she continues to improve...Prayers her way.
As to Paula's silence I will light a candle for her tonight that she might know in her heart how blessed Nugz was to have her for his friend...Prayers to Nugz soul.
That woiuld be Lolly not looly...sorry...
Yeay Paula checmked in and had a good time with family this is good, life is good!!!
Judy E thanks about understanding that it is stupid people that caused the damage in Vancouver...The Canadian Media today was not impressed...most of us were not...
That would be Paula Checked in, I saw it just as it sent...oooops I had better slow down three, two, one...!!!LOL
Paula, glad you checked in--almost looked like an alert was starting!!!!
Lolly, we actually had a little rain tonight!!!Only because I watered all the plants.But I will go out and do my rain dance. Get out the sub!! LOL
Hoda
Glad to see you again...
Always good to read your words, also...
you have shared so much knowledge with us...
the eagles were in the nest, mostly Truder, Belle at first and then later...
for nearly an hour, glad you got to see them just in time before you went out for your boating
going to try to sneak in a shower between lightning bolts...
hope I see you all again ☺
Just in Case...
Good Night....at least for now...
xoxo ♥
(I think a thunderclap skeered a skunk somewhere nearby...sniff sniff sniff)
So glad to hear from Paula and that she had such a good happy reason as to why she is just now checking in with us.
I have lightning bugs in my yard -
I wish some rain would come over
the mountain - I wouldn't mind the lightning if rain came with it!
Everyone have a peaceful good night's sleep! Prayers for all!
((hugs)) for all...♥♥♥♥♥♥
Keep posting Loretta, I Love your Avatar !!

Sorry, didn't mean to worry anyone...was going to post before I left but was running late...
trying to get caught up...
Looks like most areas up north here may get something, hopefully we will get a little more
Good night good friends. I will check back in tomorrow. Time for me to head upstairs.
Hello back to you, Darth.
To all who have headed off to bed goodnight and sweet dreams. GOD BLESS.
LOL Hoda. I thought you had typed Looly deliberately. Been called that before. I think Looly might be one of the Momster dictionary words.☺
Well, I fell asleep so did not read much. Ready to hit the shower and go to bed. Vet in the morning with Annie. Wonder what he will have to say. I told Annie a minute ago. hee hee Good thing she did not understand.
Night all! Sweet dreams!
Finally caught up ... read some from work today, but didn't have time to comment...there are only 2 people in my office, Debbie and I.
Sad news this morning as Debbie's Mom passed away rather unexpectedly last night...so I was rather busy today. If you could say a little prayer for Deb and her family, I know she is having a really tough time. Thanks.
Hoda, I agree with Lynn, I don't feel you should feel any shame.
Lolly, I know you will enjoy your trip with your family.
Glad you got to see both eagles tonight. I think Belle is molting too. I noticed a few white feathers on her last night.
Congrats Bob on the magazine cover.
Did get to see the Pax cam the other day...
Judie, say Hi to Darth from me!
Margy, enjoy that walk at NCTC with James.
Lori, I will be getting another dog...can't live without one ♥
Hey Paula
Not to worry...
about us worrying about you...but we ARE glad you had time to check in.
but I have an idea:
Pack yourself a complete set of Play Clothes to put in your car ☺
Just think of the gas money might be able to save $$$$ ☺
Paula
am very sorry to hear about your co-worker's mother passing away, yes of course, prayers...
Good Night...xoxo
The day is almost gone. Where did it go?
To all heading for the pillows, have a good night's sleep and rest well.
I think I will join those soon. I'm a bit tired and sleepy (thanks ambien). Tomorrow Jim is off so he'll be up early and about and I won't be able to sleep in too long.
A belated happy birthday to Jewell, and hi to NCSusan. Hope Jo's Sam is doing good.
Lynne, keep us informed on the puppies and have a good day tomorrow.
Now, I must go and get some sleep before I do a face plant into the keyboard.
Prayers for all needs/wants. God bless.
P.S. The last one to leave, please lock the door. ♥♥♥
Andy, just love your description of your time with the bulldogs!
Jo, glad Sam is recovering nicely! Hate to see little ones in pain.
Had a great time at John's...Brensin was a little motormouth all the way through dinner....pushed the kids on the swings....The grandkids we all jumping on the trampoline tonight...well Gianni was rolling around on it ☺
Got to give Ajay a BIG HUG....she was here everyday to feed Nugz since I brought him home from his surgery...and Tuesday was no picnic...how blessed I am so have such a wonderful DIL ♥
Two adults three chicks at FinFerry
think the parents are going to switch out
Good night and restful sleep to those turning in!
Margy, I have to come thru Emmitsburg to get to John and Ajay's, so tonight it was just a quick run in to change clothes and back out the door...oh, and got a load of laundry in the wash....almost dry now.
And I missed wishing Genie a Happy Birthday!
that's a beautiful report Paula of a stellar evening
Yes, very dear, about Ajay...
Good Night Diann...Sleep Tight, make it matter!
Better move along myself also
it's almost tomorrow...
God Bless You all, dear friends
and ((BIG HUGS)) xox ♥
Copy that Paula! My laundry is going and next the dishwasher, got shower out of the way, using LOTS of water tonight!
Okey-dokey, signing out now
xox
Have a good rest, Margy. (((Hugs)))
Prayers to your colleague and her family Paula.
Margy make sure you let us know what you see at the NCTC grounds...how lucky you are...
Thanks Hoda...sure will. I have been to NCTC "alone" before becoming a Momster, and have been there with the group several times since then....but I have never been on an Audubon Bird Watch, just managed to get a schedule switch at the last minute, literally....so this will be nice.
First official Bird Watch for James also...though he has been on a few amateur ones with me ☺
I was adding pictures to the E-M album, got my very last one out of order...most are Truder only, but a few of both...
I think I better go find the sack and hit it !
Hope your Sleep is Sweeeeet
xo Good Night xo
I really am signing off now...will probably miss someone or more right after I hit the "off" button :(
OK I think I am the last one on...everyone is settled in and safe and sound. God's Blessings and Sweet dreams and I will see you all in the morning God Willing. I hope to read about a wonderful visit from Miss Belle and Truder Beau( except really he has got a long way to go before he could be called beau) Miss Belle however is "Ma Belle" like the song would say...a real beauty...
A bit sad and glad that Bible School is over:):( I loved being with the youngsters and preparing them a hearty snack. We had the parents to join in on the Picnic-snack, this evening. Pastor made a slideshow from the photos that Capt. Gene took throughout the week and showed it to the parents during the picnic...a lot of laughs in those photos!
The kids gave Gene and I hugs when they left to go home...how sweet that was:)
My kids are still at the OBX, so GG is in the mood for more crab legs...wahoo!
Good night to all my friends, see you tomorrow (Oh, it IS tomorrow:)
Prayers for Paula's Co-worker and family...very hard to have a loved one pass so unexpectedly.
Prayers for all♥
Have been searching for a particular picture of my Dad...finally found it, but it has drips of something all on it, will have to have it redone from the negative....so I found this one instead....my Dad with Michael when Michael was about 2 years old...
And with that, I bid everyone good night!
Nice to see you checked in, Wanda!
(((Hugs to all)))♥
Some eventful reading this morning!
BOB - another gorgeous picture! We are so proud of you and your beautiful work. Congratulations!
HODA - no shame. You are a beautiful person with a mind and heart to match. AaZ or EeZawahiri will be a menace to the world. Many just look for reasons or excuses to be violent to make themselves feel something besides there own self-hatred and
inadequacies.
LOLLY - thanks for the Google link - great way to show a lot of pictures. And, it's gorgeous. We may have to get you a satellite phone if you can't get on the blog from there. :)
Thanks for your nest report, LOLLY. Love the reports in CAPS!
LYNN - nasty storms and LOUD here last night too. Very happy for the rain. :)
LYNNE - ahhhh, the puppies. Can you give us an update?
LORETTA - thanks for the good news about the quiet little osprey chick from Dr Greg. Happy that he think it'll "catch up" and there's nothing unusual going on.
PAULA - Prayers for Deb and her family. Are you going to the beach this weekend? Tell AJ I love her, too, for being so good to Nugz. :)
MARGY - RED Friday. My wardrobe problem for today has just been solved thanks to you and the Troops!
Off to get ready for work. Thank you God for letting me make it to Friday -now, if I can get through 11am and home I'll make it fine. Looking forward to a nest visit this morning IFFFFF it's not raining.
Bless you all - wonderful, wonderful eagle friends!
Good Morning Eagle Buds!
Welcome to FRIDAY - WOOOO-WHOOOOO!
Finally!
No sign of Truder or Belle yet...
TRUDER IS IN THE NEST!
THE USUAL. PECKING IN THE OLD NEST CUP.
NOW STANDING BY THE LEAVES AT 4. SURELY HE'S LOOKING FOR BELLE.
STILL STANDING UNDER THE LEAVES LOOKING OUT OVER 4.
HE IS TAKING IN THE SCENERY LOOKING BACK AND FORTH.
BELLE HAS ARRIVED LANDING ON THE NEST RAIL AT 9. YEAH!
SHE IMMEDIATELY BEGINS PICKING UP STICKS TO CLEAN UP THE PLACE! BELLES PUTS IN A STICK ON THE RAIL AND TRUDER HAS TO TIDY UP HER WORK. NOW HE'S FUSSING WITH EVERY STICK THERE AROUND 8 - 9 THAT'S IN THE RAIL.
MOVING OVER TO THE OLD NEST CUP, BELLE BEGINS MOVING SOME OF THE LEAVES WE THINK SHE BROUGHT IN.
TRUDER DOES THE OL' DIG IN THE CUP AND COME UP UNDER BELLE'S BEAK ... LIKE HE'S GOING TO SNEAK AT BEAK OR PECK.
THEY'VE MOVED ON TO THE CENTER OF THE NEST NOW DIGGING IN THE FLUG.
TRUDER GOT CLOSE TO BELLES FACE AND SHE CRANED HER NECK AND HEAD WAY BACK. NOW THEY'RE PLAYING THE "DON'T LOOK AT ME" GAME.
THEY'RE BOTH BACK ON THE NEST RAIL/WALL AT 7 - 8 NOW, PERFECTING THE STICK PLACEMENT.
OOOOOOHHHH! WOW! BELLE GOT IN HIS FACE LIKE "GET THE HELL OUTTA MY FACE" THREE TIMES... THEN HE CAME AT HER AND THEN THEY GOT INTO THE BITE AT ME THEN i'LL BITE AT YOU ACTION, WITH WINGS FLAPPING. SHE WAS NOT HAPPY WITH HIM.
BELLE BY LANCH PAD AT 4...TRUDER ON OTHER SIDE PECKING IN THE NEST CUP AT 11.
BELLE POOF THEN 30 SECOND LATER, TRUDER POOFED.
Please be patient with my typos and errors - no time to proof read.
Still hoping for at least a Truder YoYo.
Beautiful emerald green color in the nest now.
Helllllllooooooooo!
Anyone out there?
Time to rise and shine!
Good Morning GLori and
ALL Eagle Pals
Lori, Yay for you, Friday, now just keep your dreams on 0900 and you'll be FREE for a couple of days
Did not notice any typos, was mesmerized by your Complete Nest Report - You had the Eagles all to Yourself !
Thanks! xo
Today's nest weather-Mostly cloudy this morning...then becoming partly sunny. A chance of showers. A chance of thunderstorms...mainly this afternoon. Highs in the lower 80s. West winds around 5 mph... increasing to 10 to 15 mph this afternoon. Chance of rain 50 percent.
Got some rain here last night, thank goodness. Gotta head back out to cut flowers.
Have a great day everybody!
Lovely late night posts from
Wanda and Paula about their days' activities....
And a GREAT avatar on Paula's last posts, her Dad, and her son Michael...
so cute ! ☺
Thanks Megan
I would like to request a weather report with No Saturday Morning Rain please...
Hope you have a good day also
My ilianthus is just about to bloom ☺
Can't Wait!
Hope you have a good day...and a Great Week-end!
Wanda
Guess you might have Kiddie Withdrawal today now that Bible School is over, sure sounds great, how it all went!
Bet that slide show from the week's activities that Gene put together was a Bravo! and then some...
So rest just a wee bit and build up your appetite for Crab Legs with GG tonight
xoxo ♥
was going to change my avatar this morning but James the Grandson is going to be here tonight, he might like to See Himself on the Eagle Blog - He loves the monikers and the avatars !
Wish everyone had seen Belle & Truder going at each other. She was seriously hot mad at him.
JUDY - I missed you and your videos.
MARGY - Thanks for the support. I think I'm gonna make it. ♥
Is spring the best time for taking wildflower pictures?
AND - I would love to go to Swinging Bridge and the other place where Jo's nephew saw the eagles. Let's plan a trip!
Spring all the way through Fall, Lori,
later on pretty soon will be Joe-Pye Weed, then Cardinal Flowers, goldenrod....
would like to put together a trip -I have not been to Sleepy Creek Lake, where Jo's great grandson saw the eagles...for years...some great bird-watching and wildflowering there for sure
I can envision the eagles this morning, have seen some of that between them before....not friendly at all...Truder is surely a bit of a PEST!
Know that Lynne2 is already getting ready for her work day...
what a report about the Lab puppies' delivery...a lot of devotion and attention from the staff there...hope all works out OK
Hedgie
I checked out that link from your much earlier post, to Jason Tennant's carving: Awesome...thanks !
Time to shake, rattle and roll...get my red shirt on, and head out soon, worktime looms
Best Wishes for a Good, Safe, Healthy and Joyful Day today, Everyone
hope to "see you" from work perhaps
xoxo ♥
PS
the SPLIT IS APPROACHING
See I forgot LYNN's Jason Tennant link & Margy reminded me.
LYNN, obiously, Jason is a talented artist. Do you know him? His owls are really amazing. Gorgeous.
OH so sorry LORI you had the am shift alone this am visit and what great reporting you did fantastic job blow by blow play and make no apologize with typo I didn't see any I think our minds are made to just see what we know is suppose to be there typos and all aren't noticed I know it hard to watch type and do the bold I just can't do the bold each time but I like the CAP idea Seem like that still had the love hate relationship again this am
Going to take Jordyn to the Sun coast Prime mate Sanctuary today There is a park near it that we will hang out until they open at 10 it is in Palm Harbor about 19 miles from my house
