YEAH feather for me thanks st\\STEVE FOR THE THREAD

Sandi said...

Thanks for the new thread, Steve and thanks Judy for the call over.
Just a short post so I can check the box - later!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Thanks Steve. I am so ready for the warm front!!!

paula eagleholic said...

At least it is supposed to be a short lived cold front!

Afternoon all!

Kay said...

Thanks for the New Thread and the warning STEVE ! Taking comfort in PAULA's word that it's to be short lived !

Purty new feather ya got there, JUDYE !

SANDI, one hour to go ! I'll bet Lynnis is already there--I know I would be--you never know what traffic delays you'll encounter in the trip she has to make.

Here wind is blowing about 50 miles an hour---no, gusting to 50, as the snow begins to fly. It sounds about that bad at the nest ! Got to turn the sound down, it's sending shivers up my spine.

Kay said...

Cam just went off. Now says:

This server is temporarily unable to service requests. Error code: 95

Tried quitting and going back, no go. Anyone else ?

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle calling out...clunk in Tree. :)

paula eagleholic said...

We are supposed to get those gusty winds too, Kay.

Raining in Crisfield at the Moment.

Looks like we are in for a switch.

paula eagleholic said...

Belle out, Shep in.

Almost said Lib in.

Kay said...

Got it back.

Sandi said...

Home from my Wednesday. Brian landed 12 minutes ago! Lynnis said around 4:45pm but the flight arrived early! Kay, I'm sure Lynnis is already there - she may have camped out in the airport last night! :)

I am a happy mom!!

Kay said...

Big sigh of relief and much elation right along with you, SANDI !

Kay said...

HODA, did you send a temporary change of address to The Sandman ? It may take a little adjustment time as you get familiar with unfamiliar sounds, etc., especially those things that to bump in the night. UuuuhhhEeeeeeee. DO NOT LET JUFIE know where you are !

Kay said...

those things that "go", not to....

JudyEddy said...

I see the STILL cam is stuck
on 809am

Home from work

JudyEddy said...

JO or PAULA can you let STEVE know STILL is stuck Please and Thank you

JudyEddy said...

LOOKS like lots of nestover fish scales at 5 in the dinner area

JudyEddy said...

not on the still but on the live feed had it for lunch I assume

JudyEddy said...

BBIALW GGP

Mema Jo said...

Wow did we ever get the downpour - now down go the temps and here comes the winds.

Well Brian's flight would have landed right before the rain. Did he come in to BWI?

Thanks Steve for the new thread and I'll heed your warning and hope it is short lived

JudyEddy said...

ok now I am leaving 76° and heading to see the cell phone tower eagles

Judie said...

Ooops! Guess my eyes are still a bit iffy. lol

Back and eye exam went well. No significant change. Good report*

Thank you Steve for the fresh thread and JudyE for the call-over. Enjoy the feather.

Checked the cam. Picture of looks like Shep on duty. No movement. Stuck?

WELCOME HOME BRIAN. Please enjoy the homecoming and being back with all your family.

Darkening here. Winds are beginning and temp. is getting cooler.

Hoda, yes, do let Sandperson know where to find you - we PROMISE not to tell Jufie. lol

Judie said...

Poor Phoebe. She's is on one wild ride. Wind is really blowing her around but she's holding tight to the nest and her egg.

JudyEddy said...

HODA what a beautiful setting you are getting the privilege of house sitting in So pretty what a awesome view you have

Its raining out got half way to the nest and here I am back :-(

JudyEddy said...

watching news and oh wow the Colorado car chase today Unbelievable

JudyEddy said...

I put pic on the EM site on FB and tagged Steve in a pic with the Sill cam frozen in time so he now knows

I am having such issues with the live feed stalling and stopping and I have 3 browsers open and it does it on all three also what a PIA

Mema Jo said...

For me it was a 'breakfast type' dinner We were going out but decided not to and that is when the rain poured. I was glad we stayed home.

Mema Jo said...

Judy I don't see it on Steve's page You may need to SHARE from the EM for
it to go over

Lynne2 said...

evening all!

So glad Brian got home safely Sandi, and ahead of the weather, too!

Lynne2 said...

It was a beautiful day today...the rain was heavy, no T'storms, only lasted about 10 minutes, wind just now starting to pick up. MUCH cooler now!

Mema Jo said...

And tell us on here about the Tundra Swans WHoo Hoo

Lynne2 said...

Some large pieces of debris have been spotted by a satellite in the sea on the flight path of the missing airliner.

Lynne2 said...

oh yes Jo...I was just getting to that!

12:05 this afternoon, while at the CVS in Hampstead's parking lot, I FINALLY SAW TUNDRA SWANS!!! I heard them first, jumped into a parking spot, grabbed the binos, got of the car...almost...forgot the parking brake. LOL! There were easily 200 of them! LIFE BIRD for me! I heard them a couple of years ago one night but didn't actually see them. Now I have! It was AMAZING!

Mema Jo said...

Oh my Lynne - I have been praying for them to find that plane. Closure..

Lynne2 said...

I hope it's the plane too Jo. It's been such a mystery and if this is debris from it, they will hopefully now know where to look for the "black boxes". SO many strange things about this....It will be a blessing to the families to have closure for sure.

JudyEddy said...

OTAY I sent him a mssg on FB with the pic

JudyEddy said...

Thanks for the update My news if it said anything I didn't hear it yet anyway

terrible news in NY today also

JudyEddy said...

I am giving up with the live feed I an tooooo frustrated with it can't keep f5 and starting it over to much of a pia

JudyEddy said...

eagle in both

JudyEddy said...

got some snips inbetween the spinny arrow

Mema Jo said...

I sent Steve an email with pic asking for a reset of still cam.


Beautiful egg roll on live feed

Belle is in for the night

Hoda said...

Well here I am in the new place.
Breathtaking indeed.

Trying to figure out the lap top.
Very happy BRIAN is home to the USA.

I have to log in it tells me.
I hope I still remember what it was...

Mema Jo said...

Judy - I'm giving up on the live feed

Perhaps the wind is the reason but I
get a few seconds and then it stops.

Going to check out TV schedule
Don't want to miss Jeopardy tonight

BBL

JudyEddy said...

Looks like more flugg was brought in
in a pile there in center of nest

JudyEddy said...

JO I had sent a pic on his FB email also and he has seen it on the message it shows time he saw it right after I sent it but he didn't answer it

JudyEddy said...

I am also giving up on LIVE FEED I have 4 browsers up and all are doing it may be wind but we have had this even with out the wind but not as bad
Probably is almost over for the evening anyway with the exception of egg rolls

I noticed sometime it start up by itself but normally not I just had all 4 go to the white screen with the pretty pic on it and maybe with night fall it will stop doing it We can only hope

gonna go check out the tube also





Hoda said...

I will go down to the beach. the bread crumbs might be useful to bring me up through the gardens and then to the house!!! LOL
Every thing is relative is it not!!!
I love love love us.

stronghunter said...

Watching Wheel of Fortune and waiting for Jeopardy. Two women from Huntersville on Wheel. Huntersville is home of the Carolina Raptor Center and my family homeplace.

stronghunter said...

Hope you enjoy your stay at this lovely abode, Hoda.

JudyEddy said...

HODA I think the birds will probably eat your bread crumbs and maybe other wildlife

my cams are running good now ODD 7 min now EGG ROLL

stronghunter said...

Wow! It is windy here.

stronghunter said...

Went downstairs to spot Hunter picking up dog poop in the rain. It seems that Kathryn had reminded him repeatedly do to it and he somehow failed to do it. She came home and promptly sent him out. (Not raining hard.)

JudyEddy said...

A stick of flugg hit Belle in the beak

JudyEddy said...

the tree is swaying so much and flugg is blowing also sticks in the nest being blown

stronghunter said...

Oh, the tree is swaying big time.

stronghunter said...

Glad there aren't eaglets hopping around in the nest right now.

Lynne2 said...

WOW, we just took the dogs out and the wind is INSANE!!!!!! It's slamming us so hard up here that there are all kinds of scary noises!

stronghunter said...

Arthur has a couple of tough competitors on Jeopardy tonight. He is in 3rd place right now.

stronghunter said...

Told Hunter to secure my birdbath and the front porch furniture. The wind is really blowing here, too.

JudyEddy said...

JudyEddy said...

egg roll

Judie said...

Hooooooda? Hooooooooooda?

Look closely Hoda.

Yes, I have come to visit you. Gave the Sandperson a special satchel just for you. He says you are in a different location and needs to know how to find you. Just let me know and I will tell him where you are.

Love and hugs,
Jufie

stronghunter said...

HIDE, HODA, HIDE!!

Judie said...

Hi everyone,

Just stopping by. Wind is furious and it makes me nervous because of all our huge trees. Grace and Audrey are a bit skittish with the creeks and groans.

Tundra swans. How delightful. Don't see them inland.

Poor Arthur.

Wonder if picking up dog poop in the rain will prompt more timely poop picking up in the future.lol

Do hope the sighting of debris is on target. I cannot begin to imagine the pain and loss the families are experiencing.

Okay, off to put my feet up. I'm sure I'll wake up when the Sandperson begins to rummage in the closet.

JudyEddy said...

HODA Don't be fooled the Sandman is just like SANTA he know where we all live

the evil one has gotten a hold of Judie laptop look like


Lynne2 said...

sure you can Judie. We are FAR inland. They are making their way from the coasts of MD, VA, NC and flying to the artic where they will breed this summer and then return in Oct, Nov again. Megan is way west of here and sees them often!

Hoda said...

Now now now!!!
I will not be telling no no no NOT I!!!

I went for a walk about and heard five different bird songs!
The beaver was her to visit.
The deer have two spots where they bed!
I see bear claw marks on the trees.
They are still hybernating, so I will not see them yet.

JUDIE you tell JUFIE I am the one who created her name and I do not like to be bullied!!! Off with her head and all!! I have connection to the Tower of London and she could easily be sent there...

I love love love us!!!

Welcome home to Brian...

Aaaaaah Bravo for Lynne1:
About time, eh? what a flock of Tundras.....I'm waiting, watching and listening...
I DID see about a dozen Snow Geese
flying north the other night...

Good Windy Evening, Eagle Pals

xo

magpie said...

Judie
Jo

sounds like the eye exams went OK,
and Judie, same as for the back,
Good Show !!

magpie said...

Those Tundras no doubt flew straight into the Snowy Zones for sure


magpie said...

Thanks to all for the Nest Reports...not sure how well I would do watching a swaying worn out
old Sycamore tree with its Precious Cargo on Board

magpie said...

Good Night in Advance Eagle Pals...

Hoping nothing important blows away in these winds...Judie,
have you in mind, I have SEEN those GIANT trees in your yard...

and hoping all in the Snow Zones
will get through this storm Vulcan
"OK"

Prayers for Wellness, All Around, and

God Bless Us,

magpie said...

Oh; PS
arrest made in the local murder of the older female....

male used her bank card 30 times in a short period of time, surveillance photos at the banks, were a big factor in his arrest

Such a shame.....possibly, probably,related to a drug problem

suspectd had done "some handyman" type work at times, for the Victim

Judie said...

Hello.

Wind is more fierce than ever. Going to shut down before we lose power.

Sandperson is packing a satchel. Something about Jufie but I am pretending to be deaf.

In all my years, I do not think I have seen a tundra swan hereabouts. Maybe I need to be more vigilant.

Okay, night light is on. Restful sleep for all. Double lock doors and windows - Evil Jufie is on the loose.

Restful sleep for all.

Costume Lady said...

Hello Everyone...
I was on facebook checking out my family and WHOOSH, the wind blew me over here!
Trying to keep myself busy...my main escape from self-pity. The hardest chore, so far, has been washing Gene's clothes.
I'm finding out just how much he did around here. What I do, pales in comparison to his chores and obligations. Not to mention all the things he did for GG. But, I have put my BIG GIRL PANTIES on and doing my best.
I brought his "George" urn home and it is so heavy, I couldn't lift it to the fireplace mantel. I guess I will ask my son in law to help me, just wish he and Karla didn't live so far away...he works 2 hours away from his home and doesn't get home til late.
OK, I see I'm rambling again, I am VERY ADD these days.
Before I sign off, someone, PLEASE tell me what is wrong with Miracle Michael? I saw on facebook that some prayers are being said for him.

Hoda said...

WANDA Blessed Be...
Yes it is hard and yes you will survive this because you are the Captain's First Mate and he would expect nothing less from you.

You are in our prayers even though it is not on the blog on a daily basis.

MIRACLE MICHAEL experiences head pain and they are trying to adjust the medication in such a way that it would be better for him.

Love and Light to you and the CAPTAIN.

Costume Lady said...

Thank you for the explanation, dear Hoda...I will pray for the new medication to be a 'perfect fit' for him~

stronghunter said...

Hi Wanda,

Glad that the wind blew you over here. We love having you with us.

I see Hoda told you about Michael. We are hoping that he will find pain relief.

Do not underestimate yourself. I am very sure that you and Gene both have worked very hard over all of those years.

Please keep visiting us. We will be here.

Kay said...

WANDA, I do so understand exactly what you're going through. I think of you every day because I recall those first few weeks after Stan's passing in great detail. So many firsts, so much to tend to, so much time to think.... It really will get easier, but you'll always have Gene in your heart and often on your mind. Family is key and you are blessed with one that is loving, kind and generous ! You're gonna be okay because you're strong ! Love you ! ♥♥♥

Kay said...

Ewwee. SHIRLEY, picking up rain soaked poop has to be so difficult. Hunter may have learned something this evening ! I'm kinda glad to see Arthur go--was wondering if we had a Ken Jennings in the making. Hurray for the new champion !

MARGY, always glad to hear it when the bad guys get caught. Poor, poor woman.

LYNNEDUH, you saw a couple of hundred Tundra Swans ? Wow ! That is fantastic !

Oh, HODA, you are out in the wild country ! The only bear claws I want to see are in the pastry bakery down the street---or on a bear cam. I realize you're only seeing the evidence they've left behind and that they are still hibernating, so will not worry. Wonder if the threat of meeting the same fate Henry VIII doled out will scare the evil Jufie away forever ? We can only hope !

I'm toddling off to bed, the best place to be on this cold, cold night.

Love and prayers for all ! And SED.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥



Lynne2 said...

Wanda, I'm so glad the wind blew you over here!You just bring you little old self over here any time, ADD and all! We love you!

Mema Jo said...

Hi Wanda - Most of my Momsters keep Michael in prayer - The pain he has
will be with him always and he endures it very well. They were trying different meds but those nerve endings will be sensitive for many years. He had a good appointment this
Wed down at UMMC - doesn't need to return for one year.

Mema Jo said...

Now before I blow away in this wind
I wanted to say

Goodnight to all
Prayers for all of you and your loved ones...
Happy that Brian is home ♥

I ♥ US

Lynne2 said...

Jo, has Michael explored any holistic things to try along with the medical things?

Lynne2 said...

Lots of reports of trees and wires down in my area as i am sure it is everywhere. DC downtown is out!

stronghunter said...

On a night like this, I am happy that there aren't any really big trees near my house. We were surrounded by many tall trees in our previous house, and I watched them sway in the blowing wind quite often.

stronghunter said...

Major cat problem here--I have to stop every few minutes to give some more chin scratches. George is loving the attention, but I can't type too easily.

stronghunter said...

MAYBE a few snowflakes on Monday. Oh, I have heard that before!

George said this:
++++++++++++++++++

Hoda said...

Good night and God Bless Us all.
Very Happy SANDI'S BRIAN is home.

JudyEddy said...

just noticed the winds have died down at the nest At first I thought the cam's froze but no still going and doesn't look to windy now Hope the worst is done

Sandman must have had issues still waiting :-(

stronghunter said...

Very sleepy. Going to say good night quickly while I have two hands available.

SED!

Lolly said...

Have read the blog. Very entertaining!

(((hugs))) WANDA! You are doing fantastic...keep it up!! I just can not imagine...I would be the same without Jack. I keep thinking he needs to teach me more.

We had a fabulous day. Did not go to the winery of Ash's friend. Could not find it. However, Michael says he will call tomorrow. Instead we went to 4 wineries, each different an each special. Had a lot of fun, especially at one winery that had a 4 month old yellow lab. He was so sweet. Wanted to make off with him! Another winery had some excellent food with their tasting. I ended up telling the guy serving us about our meals. He gave me a book with some elegant recipes. Another winery "found" a coupon for our tasting, two for one! At that place we sat outside and visited with a man who was also an aeronautical engineer. That is what is so much fun tasting wine. Everyone is so friendly...including the dogs!

We will be here one more day and then off to the redwoods. We might be off the internet there, as we will hopefully be dry camping in the Natl. Park. By dry camping I mean...no electricity, no water (only what we have) and no dump. We will be battery powered and we also have propane gas for cooking an heat.

Heading to the shower and bed soon!

Sandi, so happy for you Brian is home! Love and hugs to all!

SED!!!

Sandi said...

Goodorming my eagle friends.

Headlines say DC was without power from the winds and that many flights were delayed - so glad Brian made it before the winds hit. Boy, are they howling outside this morning. Hope all the trees near the house stay vertical!

Wanda, good to see you on the blog. Please know that I am thinking of you, dear lady!

Two more days to go in this work week but I am really tired. Guess it's the time change.

Hoping Lori might pop on some day soon.

Have a great day everyone!

Janet said...

good morning to all. ran out of time and energy yesterday.

JUDIE: so glad to know I don't have to deal with the lashes from the wet noodle, lol. I knew you were kidding.

yesterday was a busy day. we hit the road just about 9:30, the dealership was acutally across the line in Georgia. so we cruised on down there.

yes, we bought it. it was exactly what we were looking for. a 27 foot RV. no slide out, but I can live without that. it is a Class A, which is the style we liked much better. And 25 K LESS than the othe rone.

we drove it home. it is in the driveway .

we got home about 7:30 last night. ate dinner. I tried to to a program on blog radio last night, but that ended up frustrating me as the feed went out. just went to bed.

now back to work!

HODA: enjoy enjoy enjoy!
SANDI: happy Brian is home !
everyone: hugs and smiles to start your day!

Good morning eagle friends. I saw the wind still blowing for the 10 seconds I had the live camera. glad our nest is still safe.

WANDA, so glad to see you here. You are a strong lady and will eventually figure things out. Love to you and your family.

I hope all have a great day today..

Hoda said...

The duvet on the bed where I slept is to die for!!!Very warm and very toasty!!! Lots of sleep in that bed!!!

Went out three times last night to see if I could see any wild life and I did not. Moon is almost full.

Finally found my glasses. Decided on one central place to leave glasses and keys and purse, to remember to take them with me when I go about my day.

I look forward to you all checking in and that all trees remained vertical and that the wild animals as well as humans are all doing well.

This lap top is a windows seven and I think I like it...I still have XP at my flat. Their computers that they took with them are an 8.1

Mema Jo said...

Good COLD morning to all ♥
Wow - I need a heavy coat to even think about taking peanuts and seeds out. However, with the wind last night and a thunderstorm around midnight, my deck is very clean!

Mema Jo said...

PA FALCON CAM: 3/13/2014 :: First Egg!
At around 5 p.m. yesterday, the female laid the first egg in the scrape! The first and second egg should get occasional incubation time. When the third egg arrives, the incubation time should increase. The full clutch will be warmed continuously until hatching begins.

http://www.pacast.com/falcon/falcon_still_hd.asp

Mema Jo said...

I have both of our cams up/running.
Looks like lots of flugg to snuggle down into for our adults. I have to refresh live feed often.

Noticing the robins out in the yard.
Brave souls ! Blue jays are sturdy birds. I have a little nuthatch scaling the tree - I love watching their movements.

You know what - I MISS MY CATS

Mema Jo said...

Lolly - your trip gets more interesting the more miles you travel.
So happy the new RV is proving to have been a good buy.

Mema Jo said...

I ALMOST GOT 10 MINS ON THE LIVE FEED BEFORE NEEDING TO REFRESH.

Sorry all caps - it's my nubby fingers.

Thank you NCTC aka Steve for restarting the still cam for us.

Going to check out FB for some of our missing bloggers. I'll report any findings..

Kay said...

Good Morning Eagle Buds !!!

Nice and sunny at the nest !

Another frigid, bone chilling day here. 17°, but looking at big change into high 40's or 50's tomorrow. These changes are hard on my old bones.

HODA, so happy with your 1st nights report ! Glad you have a heavenly duvet to luxuriate in !

JO, hope you return with news of LORI and DANA and will welcome any FB goodies, of course !

Kay said...
