stronghunter said...

Thanks Judy and Steve.

Children at the playground . . .

WV sUSAn said...

Shep is all cock-eyed and twisty.

WV sUSAn said...

Thanks for the new thread and call over.

Eagle-Eyed's Sissy said...

Thanks for the call over! Strange sounds coming from the nest. I thought a crow was gonna land in it a minute ago!!!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Thanks Steve! Good morning everybody.

♥♥♥ and ((((GROUP HUG))) to all!

WV sUSAn said...

JudyE. For a minute there, I thought Shep"s panties were in a wad. Lol. Looks like he got things straightened out.

JudyEddy said...

Thanks for the update on LYNN and we will respect her wishes I hope she know how concerned we all are for her

stronghunter said...

I think his tail was in a twist. Looked odd for sure.

Lori O. said...

Thanks, Steve, for the new thread!

Thank you for the call over, JudyE, though I have to go back to the old thread and finish up.

Just got home from work! YAY!

That group hug felt great, Sharon!

Sandi said...

Thanks for the new thread and the call over! Just posting to check for comments to go to my inbox. Glad to hear that Shep was doing a good job tending to his little flock of 2!! Go Shep!

Lolly said...

Have finished reading the paper and having a hard time reading the blog. Last night I put the thicker eye goo in my eye as it was feeling scratchy. Can not see this morning. LOL Going to rest my eye.

DanaMo said...

Glad everyone else heard it too. I thought it was a very strange sound, but I did think it was coming from Shep. It was wobbly sounding.

Mema Jo said...

Morning again! I was with Jennifer and
at 1:00 I will meet granddaughter for
us both to get haircuts.

Spring like day out there.

Candles for Lynn

JudyEddy said...

back to the nest Jordyn is out like a light only took 4 min to go out angies said she was up at 5 so I know she would need a nap big time we went to the park but was only there 30 min foggy foggy big time and then some lite rain so she asked to go to McD and play there yeah so we went she had a blast with two other girls they had the same idea I guess love the McD that have the play area only two that I know around here Looks like Shep is relaxing what ever was there left I assume

Lori O. said...

Thank you, Jo, for the candles for LYNN link.

magpie said...

Shep looks like a jet airplane

sitting on the runway....soaking up the sun

baby BWE eaglets adorable

soaking up the sun also

magpie said...

Loving thoughts for Lynn...today, every day....
and all the family

magpie said...

Yes, thank you again, Jo...

Lori O. said...

MARGY, I was just thinking Shep looks like he's part cricket with his wing like that!

magpie said...

Helloo Belle !

magpie said...

okay that was a pretty easy swithc, LOOKS easy but it probably really is NOT..


Lori - Yes !

Like a cricket, much better description

magpie said...

BWE site

02/23/12:
We're not seeing as much fish in the nest as we would expect, but the chicks are still eating

Lolly said...

Did you see Belle put flugg on Shep's tail. I think it so funny when they put something on each other. A few days ago I saw Shep put a stick on Belle's back. It is one way to get the message across...move it!! I was walking and watching.

JudyEddy said...

I got a quick recording of Belle putting the flugg on his back I missed the landing and the calling was tooo late on the finger

Mema Jo said...

Out the door into the Spring like
weather..........

BBL

WV sUSAn said...

Jo, the candles are beautiful. Thanks for posting.

paula eagleholic said...

Afternoon, all!

DanaMo, 35 days for the first egg is Sunday March 11, for the second egg, Wednesday March 14

DanaMo said...

oh I must have thought we should start paying attention around 32.

Lolly said...

I put on my "street" clothes the first thing every morning, Jack's bad influence!! However, I do need to go put my street face and hair on! Dentist appointment this afternoon, a regular check up. More fun! Yuk!!!!

WV sUSAn said...

Lolly, you crack me up

paula eagleholic said...

DanaMO, out first egg usually hatches at 37 days....they say they can be as early as 32, but haven't really seen that...think 35 is the standard

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Shep just arrived with food, not sure what kind.

paula eagleholic said...

Shep back, think he brought lunch!

WV sUSAn said...

Good boy Shep

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I think it is a fish.

paula eagleholic said...

Yep, it's a fish for lunch!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

She is eating and not plucking so it must be a fish. She always loves to hide her food while eating!

paula eagleholic said...

Now she has been looking up, saw one shadow on the nest, but haven't heard any calling out.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Belle just flew off at 3 o'clock and then Shep went right after over the nest. Now somebody is back.

JudyEddy said...

nice a quite at the nest wind included

JudyEddy said...

look like Belle with the width can't see head spot yet

JudyEddy said...

not calling her fat LOL

JudyEddy said...

I just love having my window open Smell so heavenly fresh air only suppose to get 74° today fog is all gone and so is the so called rain sprinkle

JudyEddy said...

JudyEddy said...

JudyEddy said...

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

It is Shep and Belle is in the attic.

JudyEddy said...

LOUD THUD

paula eagleholic said...

That is Shep on the nest...Belle just landed in the attic.

JudyEddy said...

LOTS OF NOISE ON CAM

JudyEddy said...

HE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ALARMED BELLE I GUESS

Hoda said...

JudyEddy said...

HE LOOKS SO MUCH WIDER THAN HE USUALLY DOES PUFFING OUT I GUESS

JudyEddy said...

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Hello Hoda! ((((HUGS))))

JudyEddy said...

I realized it was shep when I saw the spot

JudyEddy said...

shaking the cam she is

Lolly said...

DanaMo, Aric really was a cute baby. Love looking at that picture. (Do not tell him, but he was pretty!) LOL

Keep hearing Belle in the attic. She is staying close. Would dearly love to see exactly where she is sitting.

wvgal_dana said...

Belle just loves eating and trying to hide it.

JudyEddy said...

AH ha WVGALDANA she is a attic eater not a closet eater LOL

wvgal_dana said...

If you are going to act like teenagers and some are not working their 12 step programs. Please make up your own eaglet_momster list to send as eaglet_momster mail. If you are blocking me from mail and facebook then don't send mailings through eaglet_momster mail that I will and don't want to receive. Thank you and have a nice day.

JudyEddy said...

I wonder if she has one talon on the cam and on on the tree when I go look at the picture of the cam its hard to visualize her on it and to be comfortable

JudyEddy said...

I am lost dazed and confused?????!!!!!

mariadangeloart said...

Nice day out for our eagles!

mariadangeloart said...

Just dropped in for a quick hello. Now off to pick up all the kiddies!

Lolly said...

Shep was chirping softly and watching something. He has now poofed!

Lolly said...

Eggs are alone!

JudyEddy said...

I looked no mail???

paula eagleholic said...

DANAWV YOU HAVE MAIL

paula eagleholic said...

I think that goose is finally gone at BWE...look at all those feathers strewn about.

wvgal_dana said...

I looked no mail.

wvgal_dana said...

My live feed has been working great all day. Only did one refresh and that was this morning. Way to go OutDoor Channel!!!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Amen.

JudyEddy said...

I have two meowing cats that are in the window I think they are trying to tell me something I keep telling them it smells good out there but there are bad things out there they won't believe me

JudyEddy said...

I am being summoned by Jordyn BBIALW

Lolly said...

I am off to the dentist. More fun!

stronghunter said...

Have a blast, Lolly. :)

JudyEddy said...

Don't get DRILLED LOLLY

JudyEddy said...

peep peep

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Can you OD on vegetable soup? I made some yesterday and it is so good!

JudyEddy said...

she looks up such a lo peep peep

JudyEddy said...

You know I look at our nest and it does seem to be bigger than all the others do you think so of is it just Me???? room for several in it compared to others

stronghunter said...

I think it is pretty big, Judy. Last year, when I was teaching, I showed it to my students one day, and they thought that the adult eagles were babies because the nest looked so large in comparison to the sizes of the eagles.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

It doesn't look so big when there are 3 growing eaglets and 2 adults in it! Filled it up.

stronghunter said...

I want to see two growing eaglets and two adults in March, Sharon!!

JudyEddy said...

Jordyn and I are history see ya later tonight

JudyEddy said...

Jordyn and I are history see ya later tonight

Costume Lady said...

Love you Sharon♥

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I love you too Wanda! How is your knee?

Costume Lady said...

Love you LYNN♥

Costume Lady said...

Knee is really good...I can walk without my cane, but do use it when I'm out and about for stability (just in case).

paula eagleholic said...

Shep in with a huge clump of fluff!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Brought in half a field of fluff!

paula eagleholic said...

JudyE, I think our nest is pretty big!

Costume Lady said...

The best way to gauge the size of our nest, is to look at the photo of NU in it while fixing the cam.
I have one on my blog but don't know which one. If I find it, I will let you know.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

If you click on my blog, then my wildlife and scroll down, you can see Nu in the nest.

Kay said...

LYNN, hope you can feel the love and prayers enveloping you round the clock. Thankful you have Carolyn, Christie and their families to help you through this latest trial. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Lori O. said...

WANDA, so happy you continue to heal and do so well!


Hugs to everyone today!!!!!


SHARON, your serenity prayer was much appreciated!

Linda said...

May God Bless you, Lynn, and give you peace... ♥

♥Love you, Lynn.

magpie said...

well I hear it's very nice outside, think I am about to find out....
workday just about over

(( Afternoon Hugs...
All Around ♥ ))
xoxo ♥ ☺

Sandi said...

Afternoon all! Beautiful day outside! Sounds like it's been a boring day at the nest - hope it stays that way. PAULA, have circled March 11th on my calendar and labeled it "hatch day?"

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Belle was calling out, Shep was at the cam and Belle flew out at about 4 o'clock.

stronghunter said...

MT nest. Belle(?) came in and then left.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

And Shep back in.

paula eagleholic said...

Now Shep is back from the left

stronghunter said...

Settling in on the eggs.

wvgal_dana said...

That beautiful prayer is not just used in AA or Drug Additction programs.

While Al-Anon is not a religious program, it is a spiritual program. As such, it is customary to open Al-Anon meetings with the Serenity Prayer and to close meetings with The Lord's Prayer.


The Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference.

Amen.

Sandi said...

Missed the switch - getting out of my school clothes and into sweats and slippers! Haven't heard from C/A today - hoping that means she and hubby are off on their trip. Also haven't heard from LYNNE2 in a couple of days - things must be too busy at work for her to hop on.

SHIRLEY, I didn't know that this is your first year not teaching! Boy, do I envy you!! I find myself wishing more and more that this was my last year!

SUSAN and WVDANA, Bandit is doing OK - still grouchy and I don't trust him around Bella, but he hasn't snapped at Denny or me lately, so I think the arthritis meds have him feeling a litlle better. Thanks for asking!

KAY, have there been any news updates on the Columbus falcons? I check the site every once in a while but there's no new news there.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

God help me!

wvgal_dana said...

Love you Wanda ♥

So happy that the knee is going so well for you. I am so encourage and thanking the Lord for how you are coming along.

Next time I meet GG though I want you to make sure she has her hearing aid in and turned on lol

Mema Jo said...

I was going to try to help you but I will let God do it - I know you live
by that prayer as I do. ♥

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Yes I do Jo but daggone, some days are just harder than others!

stronghunter said...

I retired in June of 2011, Sandi.

Lolly said...

Hugs, Sharon!!!!!!♥ Love you!!!!

Back from the dentist. All is well and my pearly whites are shining to beat the band. LOL

Lolly said...

Think now it is time to put on the grubbies and head outside. We are now at 79.9. Just beaufiful outside!!!!!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

"Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results."
-Anon

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I love you too Lolly! ♥♥♥

Linda said...

Yes......

(()(HUGS)))), Sharon!!

I think you're awesome!! ♥

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Hearing a mourning dove Margy!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

(((HUGS))) Linda and ♥ bakatcha!

Costume Lady said...

A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes.....
That is very profound, SHARON I think the above statement is what makes our blog so popular. Our positive thoughts are revealed to others and makes us all feel positive, but on the other hand, negative thoughts brings us down...and there are some VERY NEGATIVE things bringing us down, right now, I am sorry to say:(

wvgal_dana said...

PRAYER FOR TODAY

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O, Divine Master, grant that I may not
so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love.


For it is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
And it is in dying to self that we are born to eternal life.


--St. Francis of Assisi

I try to live by this prayer but some days it is so hard. For instead I turn my eyes to people and the hurts they cause. Then I restart again and again if I have to in order to live my life with joy and happiness and love for all.

stronghunter said...

Amen, Wanda.

Costume Lady said...

On another note...Margy sent me a card and pointed out that the stamp on the envelop is of a ship named LIBERTY...too cool, Margy, only YOU would notice that.
I love you, too♥

Linda said...

Thank You, Wanda ♥

wvgal_dana said...

Amen to that Wanda LOVE YOU

Costume Lady said...

DANA, I think that GG's hearing aids were either on the fritz or being repaired that day. Sorry~

wvgal_dana said...

Shep has been looking in that direction for a long time now. Sometimes he looks in other directions but goes right back to the one he is in now.

wvgal_dana said...

That is ok Wanda we will get together again at GG's. (: ♥♥

wvgal_dana said...

Hear the geese and Wanda I love you neat avatar.

Costume Lady said...

Trying to bring attention to happy/funny comments:
GG has a neighbor (she has been very close to her over many years) who has lost a LOT of weight. Well the neighbor came to visit a while back and GG apparently didn't know who she was...when she hugged GG goodbye, GG said "It was nice to meet you, but I didn't get your name"
To this day, GG argues with me that that was NOT her neighbor:)

Costume Lady said...

I LOVE YOU MOM!♥

wvgal_dana said...

Wanda you have mail

stronghunter said...

Well, I have just been told a thing or two.

Hunter said that he does not want me to touch his X-Box game system because I might break it, and it cost more money than I have.

Geesh.

wvgal_dana said...

I think someone is in the attic

stronghunter said...

Ah, yes, Nu in the nest. Thanks for sharing, Sharon.

Finally able to get on here now!
Got to MVA after appt., went to drug store & grocery~~~I'm ready for bed!
Just saw Lynn's email---will not flood her inbox, but want to say continuous prayers--we love you.

Lori O. said...

EAGLE ON SIDE OF NEST EATING AT 6.

Lori O. said...

MUST BE BELLE...EGGS UNCOVERED.

wvgal_dana said...

She must have brought in her own food.

stronghunter said...

Nice, warm day for the eggs to be uncovered a bit.

stronghunter said...

Time to fix dinner.

BBL.

Lori O. said...

SHEP LANDS AT 11

stronghunter said...

Both in the nest.

Lori O. said...

SHEP TAKES OFF AGAIN...POOF

Lori O. said...

BELLE LEAVES HER DINNER AND WALKS OVER TO NEST AND SETTLES IN. FACING 11.

Lori O. said...

should be walks over to eggs - she's already in the nest! lol

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Digging at the fluff!

Back to work for me. This day is wearing me out!

Sandi said...

WHATEVER SHE HAD FOR DINNER, THERE'S NOTHING LEFT OF IT!! LOOKS LIKE A COUPLE OF BONES! i DON'T SEE ANY FUR. SO I GUESS A FISH?

Lolly said...

Did not go outside. Instead I went to the computer and sent C/A recipes. Have been forgetting to do that. Came back to my laptop to see two eagles. ☺

Sandi said...

THEN AGAIN, MAYBE I DO SEE SOME FUR.

Lori O. said...

Maybe a squirrel?

paula eagleholic said...

She was probably eating the fish that Shep brought earlier...she didn't finish it, then it got covered by the fluff

Lolly said...

Heard from Lynne today. She sends her love, said to tell everyone "Hi" and that she misses us. Awwwww! We miss you, too, Lynne.

Lolly said...

Shep just shook the cam! LOL A wee bit clumsy there, Shep!!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

And she looked up like "what in the world are doing up there, Shep?"

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Awww, yes we do miss Lynne2!

wvgal_dana said...

Lynne we miss you too....I'm thinking of Steve too ((HUGS))

Lori O. said...

Maybe Belle doesn't mind sitting on eggs earlier now that she knows Shep shows up in the middle of the night and wants to take over!

Sandi said...

I know I keep saying this, but I am so impressed with Shep. How great is it for Belle that he is so reliable about being there when she needs a break and so content to eggsit?!

WV sUSAn said...

Yes, I need Lynne2 here to share this story. Here's an example of complete contradiction of purpose. I was changing the wax in my Scentsy and found a stink bug in the wax. WTH! Probably died as the best smelling stink bug ever.

Hey, hope everyone is having a great evening. Nice to see a quiet nest and Belle with some dinner in her tummy.

magpie said...

Too Funny Wanda! I was thinking of posting earlier today or maybe yesterday, that NU in the nest gives a very good perspective on its size...remember he is about MY size.....more muscle though ☺ ♥

magpie said...

also Wanda..and some others here, I have tried to use that Liberty Ship stamp as often as I can....

the others on the stamp sheet are nice too, but none otehrs named Liberty ♥

Lolly said...

Susan...that one made me snort!!! LOLn Yes, Lynne2 would love that one. Save it for her if she ever returns!!!

magpie said...

Lolly
Way cool, you talked with Lynne...you each got to hear the other's sweet voice ☺ ♥

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Hello Magpie!

magpie said...

Yikes cam comments went to my E-M program...guess I musta made it happen - I've unsunscribed now though to that.

You know Friday, winds might get to gusts up to 50-60 around here....
Big Fire Danger Alerts with that....

Sandi said...

Should we maybe print out ALL of this week's blog posts and mail them to LYNNE2 so she has some "light reading?" =)

magpie said...

I meant to say BLOG comments not cam comments, almost the same thing sometimes....

magpie said...

Sandi...I've tried that before at different times, it is quite an arduous task.....but it is a neat idea ☺

Lolly said...

No, Margy, did not talk with Lynne. Heard from her by email.

magpie said...

oooh I "see" Lolly, guess I was speedreading...
still, how nice !

Sandi said...

MARGY, I was only kidding!! Arduous is right! I have a hard time keeping up with everything that everyone posts and I'm on every day!! If it was printed out, I bet it would be a lot of pages!!

Lolly said...

Yes, Margy, it was nice. I really really miss her!

Costume Lady said...

I am hoping that LYNN is reading this blog from time to time. I read off and on when I couldn't do anything else and it lifted my spirits beyond belief. It made me try harder to get this Bionic knee to kick in and let me walk with all of you when we have our "Pretend" Open House:)

magpie said...

yesineedy, Sandi...

It's the Thought that Counts ☺

Sharon, I missed Mourning Doving it with you...I was at work, no sound :(

Yes, Lolly, Lynne is Top Shelf, and we all sure do miss her, Big Time ! xoxo

magpie said...

does not exactly look like Belle is oootched down on those eggs....
just gently laying on them.....

I missed the Food Fest earlier also !

magpie said...

Lynn might be "browsing" Wanda...
so with that in mind:

((((( HUGS, Lynn ♥ ))))

just take a little one-way time, Lynn...just concentrate on your comfort ... xo

magpie said...

with all those blog commentsto my E-M I did find a few emails that I was lookig for - whew!

magpie said...

Celestial Note!
If anyone has clear skies in the WEST - the very baby moon should be out...and Jupiter, Venus and Mercury in that order going towards the horizon....Good Luck finding that....our skies here are clouded :(
Maybe Friday could be an even better view ☺

magpie said...

I'm Magpie-ing the posts straight towards the Dead End 200 mark barricate...
aka THE SPLIT
I be quiet now...think I'll go scroll on Sharon's Wildlife Pics and have a Peek at Nu ☺


Shirley, Funny comment Hunter made about the XBox !
ttfn xoxox
(( Evening Hugs ♥ ))

Lori O. said...

Well then, I'll say goodnight all before we hit the 200 bedtime call.

LYNN, thinking of you and praying for a comfortable night, and of course, complete healing!

See you all in the morning. Love this group!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Love you too Lori. Good night.

Lynne2 said...

evening all...I have 30 seconds to breath and so here I am!

I got Lynn's email, and another from Lolly to make sure I knew about what's going on with our Lynn. Words cannot express...and I am with you all in prayer.

Read back far enough to see that Susan needs to purchase a new STINKBUG to replace the one who got WAX!! Fear not Susan, we have many to choose from here at Soper's Stinkbug Ranch!

Gotta run, busy as all heck but just wanted to let you all know that I'm praying with you all for Lynn and I hope she checks in when she can.

Love, Hugs, Prayers!

Lynne2 said...

Will look for the baby moon and planets Margy...still only light clouds here!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Hello Lynne2!!! We miss you. Love and hugs bakatcha!

wvgal_dana said...

Hugs Lynne♥ great to hear from you.

Sandi said...

Hey LYNNE2, great to hear from you. Hope your luck this week has been better than last week!

wvgal_dana said...
