Oh my.....fire on the river----a piling in the water is burning....fire dept. is a little stymied....may just let it burn....no way to reach it. I guess we don't have fire boats around here.
Margy--in Jeff Co, near Mission Rd.

hedgie said...

Now they are saying it's on the riverbank.....dispatching brush truck! Gee---make up your minds, folks! They turned equipment back, and now need to bring it back!

Hoda said...

Oh Shirley please tell me again how to do BOLD something about the required field must not be blank is the message I go when I went to preview...I put but it did not make it bold...Thanks again for all the trouble.

stronghunter said...

Angle brackets <>
Letter b between them before word
Angle brackets <>
/b between them after word.

hedgie said...

Hoda.... you will type < then letter b and then > Put in your text and then type < and a / and then a b and then >

stronghunter said...

I can't publish the example, thus the round-about way.

hedgie said...

To do blue, do the same things but use a instead of b; for italics, use an i
You can do all three at once---in any sequence.

Costume Lady said...

Sorry, wasn't dodging you all, had to eat some supper. My Brunch finally left my stomach:)

I was getting some gravel to put in the bottom of a new flower pot to transplant a gigantic cactus. As I was backing away, I lost my balance and went kerplop! Had a very slight headache, but it was gone after the nap. I am good as new, except for a skinned up elbow.

Hope the oil spill in Montana isn't in the way of any of Irene's plans, and that it can be cleaned up PRONTO!

Hoda said...

Thank you Shirley and Lynn. I will practice...

stronghunter said...

Deleted my first effort to explain. It is very confusing.

Costume Lady said...

HODA, what is Truder doing when he is TRACKING?

hedgie said...

Jo still is having no luck getting on blog. She said to say hi and goodnight with ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Hoda said...

THANKS SHIRLEY AND LYNN

JudyEddy said...

Just got back from daughter had a nice time now to go get a shower and boy we got some bad storm So glad I got home before it hits Its north of us need to call Angie for head us

stronghunter said...

Wondering how much benadryl for a 70-pound basset hound. Cannot reach Kathryn.

stronghunter said...

Yay for you, Hoda.

stronghunter said...

Even if I use the cone, it will not stop her from using her hind leg to scratch herself.

JudyEddy said...

OH my I just checked my emails I have 125 emails to read since this am yuk first shower and then read and then bed

Hoda said...

JudyE Truder was here between 8:23 and 8:28 PM EDT.

Wanda when I use the word tracking I see Truder moving his head looking out of the nest from one direction to another and back. It seems to me he is following a bird flight pattern.

JudyEddy said...

I probably won't be back after shower I can't believe its after 9 where does the day go


♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥


See ya in the am

hedgie said...

Geesh---after 9 and almost completely dark and I just got buzzed by a hummer! Hungry little guys!

hedgie said...

Shirley, 25 mg. Benadryl.

magpie said...

Well I stayed out on that limb waiting for Belle...Sigh

or at least another return from Truder
I don't mind those leaves...Belle seldom gets hidden behind them !
Love Sycamore Leaves!

Did you notice...wind stopped soon as Truder left..
I think kinetic energey from a live creature makes the camera act up sometimes

Wanda - sorry to read of your spill, it could have been very serious, and I hope you will not feel stiff and sore in the morning

JudyEddy said...

thanks HODA I hadn't done any skimming at all just walked in door and assume that being the nest was mt we had no visit I will read after shower and thanks for heads up the visit from this am is on my blog NEST videos and on facebook Shucks wasn't here to do tonight visit

hedgie said...

Hurray, Hoda, you did it!


Oh, Wanda, so sorry...did you hit your head or just the jolt caused the headache? Poor elbow....please be careful!
Jo got her toe on the bed leg----she is hurting, too! Aren't we a bunch of klutzes???!!!

magpie said...

2011 Dodge Ram Pick-up Green, Hedgie
big change from the REDS in past years
but always, A Dodge

magpie said...

Hoda
That is beautiful - Food Cupboard donations during the holidays

hedgie said...

Hi, JudyE....goodnight, JudyE! Sleep tight. Hope the storms skip you!
Megan did NOT get any rain, either.

stronghunter said...

Got Kathryn by calling her friend's number. Two benadryl. Maybe that will help Luna. Kathryn used some Frondline on her. She is wondering if this is a reaction. Luna is scratching all over.

magpie said...

See You Later, Judy
but probably NOT in the morning

glad you enjoyed your evening with your daughter

magpie said...

Thanks for the message from Jo, Lynn
Hope she is enjoying herself but Damn! I mean, Darn!
Snagged toe!

And thanks for sending along the 6 hearts !

magpie said...

Who's Next ???
NO ONE I HOPE !!!
I have osteoporosis, it could be serious if I take a tumble
would have to use some of those 380 sick days I have piled up

Oh Shirley, so sorry for Luna, she must be miserable...hope the medicine helps, Pronto!

Costume Lady said...

LOL, I hit my toe on the leg of the bed, at least once a month! Oh, that does HURT!
I hit my head on a railroad tie...could have been worse, a rock was also in the path of my fall:(

MARGY, have you decided about the 4th? Or have I missed an email?

HODA, I love your WORDS:)

stronghunter said...

Kathryn and Angie are out somewhere riding around.

JudyEddy said...

stronghunter said...

Well, since we are discussing injuries, the bruise on my knee has spread half-way down my leg. I think it is not as bad as it looks, but it is mighty ugly.

magpie said...

nice fireworks graphics, Judy

stronghunter said...

I see it now, Judy. "Happy."

magpie said...

Shirley!
big soft tissue injury you must have...lots of little blood vessels let loose some blood sounds like
Darn, Double Darn !
Watch it carefully and don't take any chances !!!

stronghunter said...

Oh no, she deleted it.

JudyEddy said...

It works on facebook but not on the blog I wonder why???? so I deleted the two others I tried to do over still didn't work I got from face book also ok I still have to get a shower and I started reading bad idea now to the shower

magpie said...

neat
heard then SAW the motorcycle on the road at Kootenay

Now I hear firecrackers here in the neighborhood
NOT neat

last night a couple two buildings down the street, loud cussing foul language unkind argument going on
Definitely NOT NEAT

JudyEddy said...

I have one posted up a little bit because it didn't show up like it was suppose to so I tried to more times so it is there at 8:55 It looks good on facebook but some how puts the weeknd in middle I give up

stronghunter said...

It is still sore, but I really think it is okay. I can move it just fine.

Need to give Luna her eye drops and then benadryl. I hope that helps her. Poor doggy.

JudyEddy said...

WOW look at the straw it almost glows I wonder if its a glow in the dark straw Now here I go again step away from the computer JUDY NOW

hedgie said...

Robyn saw an osprey in DC!!

magpie said...

I committed myself to watching the nest...hoping to see Belle...

now must commit myself to some details around here

Will look forward to Paula's Paradise report
and any and all other reports as the evening moves along

Will check back later...
xoxox ♥

stronghunter said...

Looks beautiful on FB, Judy.

magpie said...

those Kootenay chicks are adorable, very nice coloring
also just saw a poop shoot
now they are getting tucked in

good about Robyn's Osprey DC Osprey sighting thanks Lynn

Hope to See Lolly here before midnight....

xoxo okay, see you later

hedgie said...

Shirley, I have had dogs who have a reaction to Frontline. Maybe you should give Luna a bath. 2 Benadryl will make her VERY cooperative, I bet!

hedgie said...

7 hearts, Margy! She specified 7---I checked...there's 7!

hedgie said...

Margy, me, too---that is why I try to be careful!! Very frightening knowing that I am at such risk for hip or spinal fx's.

magpie said...

ok
thought she said something earlier in the week about 6 hearts so I have made mess of it this week

for the 7 children ??
or is it two parents, 7 children
wish I could keep track of all these things !

magpie said...

uh, math a mess too
2 parents, 5 children?
help me out here !

hedgie said...

Loretta....are you watching the race??

hedgie said...

Soemone is setting off fireworks...big time! Gimme a break. Liesl is barking like crazy.

PA Nana said...

Good evening!

Wanda, be careful! Hope you feel fine tomorrow. It usually takes a day or so to be without discomfort, if not pain.

JudyE, goodnight. Wanted to tell you that your video of the eagles was funny. Those 2 need to hire a home decorator. They just can't agree on the placement of the furniture.

LYnn & Wanda, lovely pictures of today's visit. Were you inside the gate?

Shirley, hope your doggie feels better quick. It's no fun itching.

Hi Linda & Loretta. Good 'ole PA.
We're one of the first 13.

this is the weekend for the celebration of the Gettysburg battle (148 yrs). Sure wish I could witness the reinactment. Have several ancestors in the civil war but none that fought in Gettysburg. Just love that period of time in history.

HI Hoda & Margy.

Did I miss anyone else besides Truder? The live cam stopped at 14:44 and I didn't notice until I read the posts. Thanks Hoda and Shirley.

My cats are trying to find a place to hide. There are firecrackers gone off in the neighborhood and they can't escape the noise.

Jim & I took our 2nd son out to eat for his birthday. The day he was born the temp was 104 - still a record. Tomorrow's record is 107
I remember it well! They didn't have a/c in the patient's rooms then.

bbl

magpie said...

most of it is illegal Lynn

we could call the cops, you and me both

remember when the nice policeman showed up at GG's that 4th of July...not sure you were there that year

magpie said...

but he was there for the other people on the street, not the GG gang

magpie said...

Happy Birthday to your Son, Diann!

hedgie said...

Shirley, gravity makes the blood seep lower...figure my foot is bruised above the toe because my toes were probably pointing up during the night!
The last time I fell and sustained an injury, it was a puncture wound and bad bruise right below my knee.....lower leg and foot and toes looked worse than the point of impact!!

hedgie said...

WANDA----so you DID hit your head. Hmmm....never go to sleep after hitting your head!! Tell Gene to keep waking you up to make sure you're okay!

hedgie said...

Margy, I suspect her 7 hearts are for LIBERTY!

Judie said...

I am really tired tonight so will try to catch up tomorrow sometime.

Hoda, no one called YOU a bad name. We love you.

Lynn, it may be Butler's. I'll double check next week and let you know. They are all very very polite and always say "we'll see you next week." Nice way to encourage repeat business. Tonight's tomato was very good.

As Lynn said, I saw one of Phoebe's babes leave and return multiple times trying to entice it's sibling to come out and play. Will miss seeing them.

Hope the fire on the river is over quickly.

Wanda, relieved that your fall was not more serious. Please be careful. How's Father/Capt. Gene and his shingles?

Shirley, I've heard extra recliner time is an excellent remedy for ugly bruises.

I've missed many along the way today but gave you my thoughts.

Okay, the night light is on and the sandperson is calling. Restful sleep for all.

magpie said...

G♥♥d Night Judie
One of the Sandman's Siblings is close by here also
xo

hedgie said...

Diann, you have mail!

hedgie said...

Happy Birthday to your son, Diann!

Margy, no I wasn't there that year.
Was he good looking???!!!
I suspect that these may be over at The Woods.....so it's probably a legal one.

stronghunter said...

Seeping downward it is, Lynn.

Luna is medicated. I had her snuggled in her bed, but she just moved. Medicating her is interesting when Flash tries to get between us. He doesn't do it every time, but often enough.

When Will and Susan were toddlers, I sometimes changed their diapers on the floor with a beagle between me and child, so I am used to interference.

hedgie said...

Judie---did you find Kay's bipolar funny??? Sleep well, dear lady! Butlers are VERY nice, polite people!!

PA Nana said...

Thanks Margy. He's still a heatwave and a firecracker. He was due the 4th but wanted to be here for the celebration. LOL

When he was 2 we took him to local fireworks. He stood there, screamed and covered his eyes. We still laugh about that.

Lynn, I hope you have something on your feet. Don't want a repeat. One bad toe is enough.

Hope Lolly is home and checks in soon.

Costume Lady said...

Judie, Father, Capt. Gene was discharged by his doc yesterday. Said he is doing really much better than he expected. Will not need anymore meds after Monday:):)

Yep, a lot of we Momsters are bruised and broken. Lynn has a nasty bruised and broken toe, but then, I think you all knew that.
Wonder what's up with all this misfortune? Judie, would you look into this mystery?

Judie said...

stronghunter said...

Nana,

I mentioned earlier that Rus hid under the dashboard at his first fireworks.

Rus was also afraid of the Count on Sesame Street. He would not admit it, but he would casually walk behind a piece of furniture when the Count Came on. The Count and the Flying Monkeys on The Wizard of Oz--Rus did not like them.

stronghunter said...

Luna is sleeping now. I think that the benadryl has gotten to her.

JudyEddy said...

LYNN cool avatar MARGY cute avatar unique

and who was the wise guy that thought if they deleted their comment they wouldn't get the was that is due to be delivered to your house via UPS LOL Shirley was that you
Ok gonna power down can't take a shower or shouldn't be on the puter The ANGELS are having a late bowling tournament tonight and they are really noisy

stronghunter said...

Time for me to settle in and read a bit--after I feed Lucky Kitty. He would not want to miss his supper tonight.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Thought I should check in. Overdid it a little today. Went to the flea market, yard sales, then to the Riffe reunion. Been a little lazy this evening and going to bed now. Still get short of breath sometimes and a little lightheaded. I go for my next iron infusion on Wednesday and they will check my blood work again then.

stronghunter said...

Confused. I deleted awhile ago, but not recently. Not that I know of, anyway.

PA Nana said...

Shirley, glad your dog is resting. Yes, you know what I was talking about with the kids. Good we can laugh about it now.

Thanks, Lynn.

stronghunter said...

Be careful, Sharon.

PA Nana said...

Hi Judie and goodnight. Have a good sleep.

stronghunter said...

Rest well, Judie.

PA Nana said...

Goodnight again, JudyE

Sharon, please take care of yourself.

JudyEddy said...

I was the first post that hit 401 when I signed on I noticed it was deleted and you were the next post SHIRLEY that's all just pulling your leg Ok I got to go storm is subsiding somewhat I need a shower it needs to stop Well at least now the idiots down the street aren't blowing off fireworks in the rain and storm so that's a good thing then

stronghunter said...

I deleted that one because I was trying to explain how to make bold letters and messed it up, Judy. Not trying to pull something off. :)

stronghunter said...

Sounds like explosions in the distance here. A good night to give benadryl to Luna. She gets more upset now when there is noise, since she cannot see.

hedgie said...

Lightening at nest????

stronghunter said...

Good night all. Maybe I will take benadryl, too. Booms all around. I wish they would wait.

NatureNut said...

Hello to all!
Lynn, Fubby keeps changing from Daytona race to trial stuff.Court opens at 9AM, Sunday!!!!Supposedly closing arguments then jury deliberation.Just heard comments from girl who roomed with Casey at the house for awhile that C said her new tattoo was in memory of Calley & they hadn't found her yet nor new what happened!!!!
Think I'll watch the car race!
Dear Wanda, stay away from the railroad! And Shirley has a banged up knee??? If you still have swelling, elevate it.Hope doggy feels better, too!
When I fell on my knee a month or so ago, my leg swelled from mid-calf to mid-thigh! They said it was from blood thinner pill I take.Internal soft tissue damage. It did bruise later, but not very much. I was wearing jeans at time.Am wearing knee brace now!
I feel real lucky that in the 3 falls I've had since winter, I never broke anything(knock on wooden head). My Dr's wife tripped on one of those thin asphalt strips on driveway and broke her wrist over a year ago. She's a nurse & still goes to therapy!Had to stop working full time at hosp.

Margy, sounds like there's been a lot of partying in your neighborhood! Maybe they know it's your B/Day!

Kay said...

Thanks to SHIRLEY and HODA for doing the Truder visit play by play ! Guess Belle was too tired after her "hostess with the mostest" performance for Momsters earlier in the day !

Thanks to WANDA we have good pics of Belle, Lynn, Irene and Nikki. and thanks to LYNN we have a good pic of Wanda with the travelers!
LYNN, you had to love Nikki as soon as you saw that tee shirt !!!

HODA, LOL your "non-comfirming" name. Kay isn't always an easy name to live with. I've gotten whiplash whipping around to see who's calling my name, only to realize it's someone saying Okay, not Oh, Kay.

LINDA, I like your name change, easier for all ! The change in your mother's condition is dramatic and heartening ! Prayers will continue !

NatureNut said...

Diann, my daughter was due on July 4 & Frank even took that week off from work. So, what did she do!! Born on June 4!!My sister-in-law use to kid that she wanted to get out and see what was going on!!

Since we don't know actual B'Days for cats, their estimated B'Days are July 4th! Don't think Binky is getting a mousie. Last 2 I got were felt w/stitched seams. She destroyed both in one night!

Kay said...

It's that time again, so I bid you all a good night ! Prayers for all in need, whether two footed or four. We certainly have our share of the walking wounded right now !

♥L♥I♥B♥E♥R♥T♥Y !!!!!!!

Love you, Eagle Buds !!!!!!!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

hedgie said...

Bunch of wrecks in last 4 laps of race....argh! Jr. got hit on final lap...finished 17th.....had been in 6th.

Lolly said...

We are home! Immediately started watering spots in the lawn and the flower pots. Lost some areas of lawn but guess that was to be expected with multiple days over 100.

Now doing laundry. We did not start unloading until this evening because it was so hot. Wjill do more unloading in the morning.

magpie said...

seeing a lot of folks stopping by tonight ☺

Sharon!
and exactly WHOSE orders are you following or NOT following ???!!!
We have Eagle Canes, Will Travel !

magpie said...

Welcome Home !

magpie said...

they would be some powerful fireworks if so !

Hoda said...

WELCOME HOME LOLLY AND JACK

MARGY thanks for posting the picture of the gals at the trip nice to see faces
LYNN thanks for the pictures Yeah they saw Belle COOL BEANS Did you all do the Happy Dance!!
Someone needs to check in to the bad aura that is in the blog making people get boo boos Or they could be like me a klutz at times I thinks its funny sometimes I hit the edge of the wall with my shoulder or hip- I guess my mind thinks my body is thinner is all I can think of

magpie said...

last comments I remembered deleting were about the
obscene indecent exposure Snowman
last February

hedgie said...

Oh, yeah....I told Nikki she had good taste in her shirt!!! She has her degree in archaeology, so I told her about my cuz, and Wanda about the dig for Gene's g'grandfather's grave. She's a great girl....going for her master's at Univ. in Montana...hence the move. Her fiance' is there already looking for a place for them to live.

magpie said...

oh this is good
Night Shift playing now
I'm rambling a bit
nostalgic about this time period

Might mosey along, water the plants and start closing things down
Lovely to schmooze with everyone here...
waiting on the Paula's Paradise report

Prayers for Healing, for pets and People !!

xoxo ♥

NatureNut said...

Gosh, just missed the end of the race--been watching the "Woodwright Videos"!!
Glad to see Sharon was here!! Don't overdo it, girl!!
Welcome home Lolly & Jack. I would be too pooped to do anything like laundry! And that's most of the time!! LOL Sleep well ☺
Maybe we'll get some B---H reports tomorrow!
Heading back to boob tube, so if I don't return, Healthy Wishes to All & Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)

magpie said...

wait a minute
Did I post pictures ??

LOL I think you mean Lynn and Wanda, JudyE

Who just had a 60th birthday ????

magpie said...

'Night Loretta...
my sister in Massachusetts saw a Scarlet Tanager this week ☺
Always makes me think of you...

hedgie said...

Incendiaries still making lots of noise. Sure would be a good time for someone to kill someone with a gun and maybe get away with it! People are crazy.

hedgie said...

Hey, Shar...slow down. Get your strength back! Feel better!!!!

Welcome home, Lolly and Jack! Chill, Lolly....the work can wait until tomorrow. Do you have to wait til Mon. to get Annie?

Margy, you may be right about the Antietam fireworks. Went to that show once---very nice one!

hedgie said...

LOL, Margy----I was wondering why you would have posted our pics! Poor JudyE is tired! And her weekend is over.....

Doesn't look like Paula is going to make it.....I'm sure her day has been very full.

Lolly said...

Have been reading back on the blog. Need to do some more!

LOL Margy! You know me well! However, we have trailer wine glasses and we have home wine glasses. Also, my pj's in the trailer were for cold weather. My moose and bear pj's! Do not think I will need them tonight.

It is good to be home! And thanks for the welcome home!

Laurel posted some pics on fb and tagged me. Do not know if you got them or not. But, they are on my wall.

Lolly said...

Lynn....how was your visit to the nest today?

hedgie said...

Ooh---big thunder.....almost certain....guess I'll wait a bit before I head for tub. Y-a-w-n!
Gonna go ahead and shut this baby down....it sounded very close.
Prayers for all and peace!!!!

hedgie said...

Lolly----very successful. Belle put on a great show. She soared and circled for about 10 mins!!! Check Wanda's pics! Mine of Belle did not turn out.

magpie said...

Oooh
Lolly
No Pajamas tonight ! Go Girl ! ☺
Wearing your birthday suit just a couple of weeks early, eh ??

magpie said...

thunder here also

nice little touch:
Neighbor guy (not Tom Sweetie, the other neighbor guy, Blessed's Dad)
came out while I was watering plants...
he called me
The Plant Whisperer

Lolly said...

Nooooooooooo! Margy!!! Just wearing cooler pj's! LOL

Lynn, so great the visit went well. And, how cool was that, for Belle to put on a performance.

Lolly said...

So, now, Margy...I have a clear picture of you, out watering your plants and talking to them.

PA Nana said...

Lolly & Jack, welcome home! It's great to have you back. Waiting for your stories and pix.

magpie said...

wink wink, Lolly !
Ha Ha, music on now is "Hot Hot Hot !"

yes, those plants are my little pals.

Diann, I really like that avatar, very jolly!

Wow I might be in for a spanking if I keep magpie-ing ! I Wish ! LOL

Better run along, last detail of the night is a little reading and some praying....
while denting the pillows !

Love you, all
Best wishes for Sweeeeeet Sleep
How about that Captain of ours!
He even does having an ailment, Well! Bravo !

God Bless This Nest, and
God Bless Us, Every One

xoxo ♥

Lolly said...

I will probably get pictures on my blog sometime next week. Tomorrow more unloading and laundry. Monday we go to Laurel's.

Do have one story. We did not see a bear in the park, just lots of deer and lots of elk. However, there are bears there and there is a Momma and three cubs in the area. She has been there at the campground. However, her home area is around a small lake called Cub Lake and we hiked there. It is about a two mile hike up to the lake. On the way there saw lots of bear evidence....freshly torn up tree trunks and logs. Really exciting. Laurel and I were busy looking in the trees as well as on the ground.

Lolly said...

I am heading to bed now. Think I am allergic to Annie...getting stuffed up! She has been purring and climbing all over me this evening.

Night all! Sweet dreams!♥♥♥

PA Nana said...

Guess I'll close down for the night. The booming has stopped and kitties are downstairs.

On to my recliner and some restful
sleep. Sure Missy will sleep on my lap. She's been like a shadow today.

Goodnight Margy, Lolly, Shirley, Hoda, Andy, Lynn, Loretta, Paula (if you check in), Sharon, Thelma, Wanda, and JudyE again, and goodnight John Boy....
see you in the daylight.

God bless us all. ♥♥♥♥♥♥

Costume Lady said...

We just had a quick shower and it is now "rolling thunder" and a few flashes of lightning or, could be fireworks.

BLESSINGS AND PRAYERS FOR ALL
SLEEP WELL♥

Ms Bookworm said...

Good Evening, Everyone!

Checking in to report about Emma's doggy park trip, and the movie we went to see.

Emma is making more and more doggy and human friends. Today she was playing with a chihuahua, a puggle, a Cavalier King Charles, a mini poodle mix, and an Italian greyhound. Bird sighting: while we were there we saw a pair of Western bluebirds! Not close enough to get a picture, darn it! Will take binoculars along tomorrow when we go back, and our camera, just in case.

JUDIE--we met a Bouvier (a HUGE black one, with an impressive spiked collar!) at the dog park. His name: VADER! LOL :oD

We also met a nice lady who rescues racing greyhounds, and one of her gorgeous dogs. He used to be raced in Mexico, but is GREATLY enjoying his retirement! This wonderful lady has several more retired greyhounds besides the one we met. She should be nominated for sainthood.

We did go to a movie today, and we really enjoyed it: "Larry Crowne" with Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts. I recommend it! Five stars!

Oh, joy! Tonight Hubby took me to our favorite Chinese restaurant for dinner--YUM!!! Lots of leftovers, too!

Well, I'm pretty tired, so think I'll hit the hay. Since it's already tomorrow back East,I'll say

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY, EVERYONE!!!!!!

Hope you all have a wonderful day tomorrow!

I'm making sure the porch light is on--don't want anyone else tripping or falling in the dark! Enabling both security systems. Prayers being said for all those with infirmities or injuries, and for all travelers. Prayers for all creatures, too!
Sleep well, everyone, and I'll talk to you tomorrow. God bless, and goodnight! Love all of you! :o]

Ms Bookworm said...

P.S.--Almost forgot to mention,

SHIRLEY, don't be surprised if more bruises show up. Hubby eventually looked as if I had beaten his entire leg and foot with one of Wanda's railroad ties! He's looking good now, though. No bruises, and almost all of the swelling has gone down. He's about 95% recovered.

Good Morning...
about to bring up live feed
light is beginning to show at the nest
In the meantime
Loch of the Lowe's (Scotland)- no adults on nest, been that way for awhile
eggs, two, showing
Loch Garten (Scotland): chicks were ringed and satellite-tagged, done late on June 30 - they think one female and one male, names: Tore and Bynack
still seeing an adult show up at Finney2 once in awhile

JudyEddy said...

Eagle has Landed in the Nest

JudyEddy said...

IT LOOKS LIKE BELLE

JudyEddy said...

NOW TRUDER

JudyEddy said...

BOTHS IN MIDDLE PICKING

magpie said...

BELLE first
Truder 20 sderconds later
I can't watch and blog

JudyEddy said...

BOTH AT TOP OF NEST

Kay said...

Just brought the cam up in time to see an Eagle land, is it Belle ?Yep, because here's Truder coming in at the 12 spot. Both picking a flugg near nest cup.

JudyEddy said...

TRUDER IS AT 11 BELLE IN MIDDLE TURDER PICKING AND SHAKING IS HIEAD WITHSTICK

JudyEddy said...

BELLE LOOKING AROUND IN MIDDLE TRUDER MOVING TO WHERE SHE IS FORCEING HER UNDER LEAF PART OF WAY A LITTLE BEAKING THERE A SEC

JudyEddy said...

OH GOOD THE LEAF IS BLOWING I NOW CAN SEE HER BETTER

JudyEddy said...

TRUDER IS AT 10 AND BELL AT 6 JUST SITTING THERE

JudyEddy said...

BOTH ARE PLAYING FREEZE TAG I GUESS

JudyEddy said...

BELLE AT 5 ISH

Kay said...

G☺☺D M☺RNING MARGY and JUDY !

Thanks for reporting on the European Osprey nests. Seems reality finally sunk in at Loch of Lowes. Sad season.

JudyEddy said...

STILL BOTH SITTING THERE TURDER LOOKS LIKE HE IS GOING TO POOF

JudyEddy said...

HE IS ON EDGE OF NEST PICKING AT STICK BELLE UNDER LEAF

JudyEddy said...

STILL SITTING AT 10 AND BELL AT 5 SITTING SITTING

JudyEddy said...

HE IS LOOKING AT HER AND THEN LOOKS OUT

JudyEddy said...

BELLE MOVES UNDER LEAF MORE TRUDER STILL AT 10

Kay said...

While the cam was coming up I glanced at the OC comments. They are trying to find someone to petition for the removal of "the vine", "so we can see better". I don't see that happening with the NCTC philosophy of letting nature take its course.

JudyEddy said...

STILL IN A FROZEN POSTION ON EDGE OF NEST AND BELLE IS STILL UNDE LEAF

JudyEddy said...

BELLE POOF

JudyEddy said...

TRUDER GOES TO THE SPOT WHERE SHE POOFED UNDER LEAF

JudyEddy said...

CAN STILL SEE HIM UNDER LEAF

JudyEddy said...

TRUDER GOES POOF

JudyEddy said...

TRUDER GOES POOF

JudyEddy said...

YEAH HAPPY DANCE WE HAD A VISIT BY BOTH

Kay said...

Both birds POOFED out of the 5 spot. First Belle, then Truder close behind. Short, but sweet visit !

Kay said...

MARGY, how nice of your sis to send the hand puppets ! I can just imagine you and James creating some cute little vignettes with them !

Kay said...

JUDY, was your camera rolling for this visit ? Good reporting !

magpie said...

Good Morning Judy and Kay
my computer is really frozen up this morning....Why?
who knows!
I did want to see Belle, think that is why I woke up without alarm clocks
seems that Belle came in from about the 4 spot, and Truder like you said up around from the 12
I think she would have stayed longer if HE was not there

magpie said...

On Loch Garten
you can see the little Sticks on their backs, those are the transmitters

magpie said...

OC folks don't understand our Eagls, and they sure don't know Sycamore leaves, from vines !
Agree, nothing going to be done with those leaves
maybe some maintenance later in the year before next year's nesting season...if there is a need for it

magpie said...

Yes, Kay, my sister is great!
I have an extensive Moose collection also, and she has added to that as well

Kay said...

Currently 71 degrees at the nest and here is the forecast:

Today: Scattered thunderstorms. A few storms may be severe. High 89F. Winds WSW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 40%.
Tonight: Isolated thunderstorms early, then partly cloudy after midnight. Low 67F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 30%.

magpie said...

We had storms overnight, I was surprised to see either Eagle show up

magpie said...

I would like to know Shy No Sound at our nest...are the OC'ers talking about that ?

magpie said...

Shy = Why
no sound ?

magpie said...

adult osprey on the edge of nest at Loch Lowe's now

Kay said...

MARGY, do you have Meese in WV ? I never hear of Moose sightings here. Recently one of my SIL's coworkers found a very old elk skeleton out in the country. Seems elk and moose both disappeared when "we" drove the American Natives out.

Kay said...

I don't have sound either. I don't go beyond an occasional glance at that opening page of comments at the OC. Too hard of my B/P !

JudyEddy said...

Hey remember the other day I said that my schedule was changed for next for just two days well they must have fixed it now all is 7-4 good thing I went and looked otherwise I would have been late those two days Odd but I didn't think they could change it without my knowledge and my password Hmm will have to ask my boss about that

magpie said...

No Kay No Moose here
my sister in Massachusetts reports they are up there sometimes but she has not seen them
she HAS seen Black Bears though

Ta Da Color at NCTC

Kay said...

COLOR up and lookin' good. One of them moved that strawlike twig or piece of something. Too big for a straw---I think it's just a bit of twig.

JudyEddy said...

I'm in process of uploading the video to the blog and facebook gonna head to the couch and try to close eyes a little before work I am so tired getting home at 9 last night made me sleepy no down time I guess before bed if that make any sense

Kay said...

Hmmm, sounds like you need to push for better communication at Wally World, JUDY ! Glad it changed back to your preferred sked !

magpie said...

they should say something to you Judy...

that straw really glowed as the light was coming on at the nest,
wonder what it IS

magpie said...

I believe it is Isla at Loch,
acc to their blog
she calls out
male often brings fish
she eats, sometimes takes it out of the nest
Male has been doing the lion's share of incubating eggs the last few days

Kay said...

Beautiful day at Loch of the Lowe's. Lots of bird activity out over the water. Can't tell if the male is out there looking for fish, but think the bigger bird flitting around probably is him.

magpie said...

they have changed the cam view this morning, Kay
showing more of the Water
blog not updated since July 1
this is the longest time I know of, with no incubation
pretty sure they will update their blog
I can only see two eggs
I guess I thought there were three

JudyEddy said...

WANDA fell I see what is it with all the boo boo we are getting on the blog hope you are ok
LYNN I hope your foot is better

I must have missed something when I speed ed in blog land where was the HO post I tried to go back and look but my neck say no way!

LOLLY loved all the pic of your vacations

JO can't get on the blog Is it the same thing that happened to me and took a couple of days to get back on I wish her luck I know I was very frustrated when it happened to me

YEAH HODA can do bolds now I just find it frustration to do it fast when the visit happens because I type to fast Its just easier to do caps with out bold for me

I am still trying to do the video on blog the one on face book finished over a half a hour ago and the one on the blog is taking forever Odd may have to do over later like yesterday just didn't want to take in the morning

Kay said...

I agree on the eggs and wonder if a predator snatched one away already. Yes, that cam view is much better---what a beautiful site that is !

JudyEddy said...

I'm going to has if I can leave early today for the concert tonight I hope they let me leave Keep finger crossed.

JudyEddy said...

LORI must be sleeping this am HUH not working I would be sleeping also

magpie said...

Isla perched and cheeping still

I was not really planning on being up this early
and am going to go collect some more z's
Hope you and everyone has else has a Good Day !
Hope the predicted storms do not create a problem for anyone

We are not far from the
TRIPLE SPLIT

xoxo ♥

magpie said...
