YOU ARE RIGHT ON TIME, WITH THE NEW THREAD, BET YOU DIDN'T THINK WE WOULD HAVE THIS MUCH TO TALK ABOUT WITHOUT THE EAGLES.
Good Morning, Eagle Land! Have a great day!
I see Mits is here too, Good morning Mits!
Mits,
I watched my grandson last night for a couple of hours. So much fun. You will love having Maggie over! He is 9 months old, and just as pleasant as can be.
Thanks Mits for the info on the new thread. Does drinking lots of tea count as drinking lots of water? There is water in the tea, you know! :)
Vital Stats:
So what are our eaglets doing today...They are working on this...
Weight 6.6-13.9 lbs.
Length 30.4-36.4 "
Wingspan 5.5-8 feet
Spicules
The soles of the toes are covered by special scales with spiney projections, called spicules. Together with the sharp talons, these help grip slippery fish.
I am sure this info in available in this spot and several places on line, but I just wanted to tell myself this today, and share it with you. I like picturing what they are up too and maybe looking like, even if I can't see them.
GOOD MORNING, LADIES AND GENT Yes, SHARON tea does count, but water is better. Is your tea caffeine-free? What about some fruit juices? Meds just really knock your body around...
Sharon Well it certainly counts as fluid intake...if your Dr said drink lots of fluids. It does ahve caffeine ya know, but not like a cup of coffee, just some.
How are you feeling this morning?
BelleHow are you doing Tomorrow functioning fullsteam for real I think. Sure hope you are feeling up to it.
Off to the offcie this morning for a while. Part one of this 3 part project is almost a wrap, and part two is well on its way. Part 3 A whole new story there!!!
PAULA Every minute I spend with "our Maggie" is so special. Hope I live long enough to watch her grow. GLO, When I first went down the blog thought we had a new person named,SPICULES signing on to post.LOL!!!
CAFFEINE FREE TEA? That would be like drinking near-beer. What is the use. No caffeine free here. I like the healthy stuff! :):):)
Has anybody ever heard from Angie? She just hit my mind this morning so I thought I should ask.
Haven't heard from Geula in a while either. Hope things are well with her.
UK Girls, Where are you?
Well my picture shows 2 sets of spicules in process My guess is they were pretty soft and harmless back then, although probably not for too long, and certainly have grown pretty powerful and strong by now!!!
Gotta have that caffeine hit too, Sharon. Probably more than I realize. Drink tons of tea too.
As I was reminded by a dear friend, perform random acts of kindness today but tell no one what you did! Rewards are great!!
Osprey eating a fish in CT - be prepared for a back end view! (Teddy bear is still hanging in there!)
Just read a note on the Maine Eagle cam that they will be leaving the cam up all year!
Yes, PAULA, I reported that on yesterdays blog. What a novel, idea, keeping the eagle cam up all year. Tee-Hee. They are looking for coparate sponsers for 2007.
Panda cam in Atlanta has not come on yet this morning. Wonder what is going on?
YEAH -- The Bluefield Beavers were selected No. 1 in Class AA football Monday in the annual preseason poll run by The Charleston Daily Mail. And the band is even better than the football team!!!!!!
Just checking in to see if there has been any report when the merchandise from eaglet_momsters with Todd's pictures will be available to the public. I don't see anything on here yet. Does anybody have any idea about the status of this?
Mema Jo,
Work every Saturday :( But am taking off this Saturday to go visit a friend!
Anon,
Official word will come thru the group, but I will also post on here when merchandise is available...hope to have an update soon!
Lun-Lun is resting in her hammock down in Atlanta...
Thank you, Paula.
Mits,
Guess I missed that info in those 500+ posts!
Bless Lun Lun's heart. She is curled up in a ball! She looks a little pitiful!
This place is not humming like it was last night! You'ALL need to go back to yesterday's thread and catch up! It was a riot! (laughter that is!)
Vicky, we are worn out from yesterday, I guess!
That's a fact Sharon!
It seems some of the "regulars" are not tuned in yet!
I hope JO gets to see LUN-LUN in her hammock. Well, I'm exhausted from last nights blogging.
GOOD A.M. EAGLE BUDDIES----WOW---It took me about 45 min. to scan all those blogs---MITS--your comment remains with me. Don't spray the tit-----Poor Todd, he will probably run from all of us---Every time we talk about a "Keeper" we use his name to describe him. Yep! that kissin' booth was fun---had to kiss a lot of "frogs" too---that's life---
REMEMBER----LIFE IS GOOOD!!!!
I'm here VICKY, just surfing around. Maggies' little outfit I bought her arrived yesterday. Its a onesie with the word BLESSED written in silver, with a matching bib and booties, with little rhinestone crosses on them. Also, got her, her 1st silver cross and chain. Too Cute. She can wear this either under her christening outfit or when she gets home from church.
Good A.M. NORMA. Did you kiss a BYRD too? Last night is but a blurr....
Hi Norma! You're my prim and proper beautiful lady!
Mits that outfit sounds TOO cute! Get a picture or two and share with us PLEASE????
Good late morning! Need to go back & read what everyone has been up to.
So far I see Fluid Intake!
BRB
Good morning, Mema Jo. Fluid intake is good here and since I got my prescription of Lasix yesterday, fluid output is even better!!
Thanks, MITS I wasn't too late to see LunLun - She is still curled up in the hammock....... So comfy looking!
Need to go over to the end of previous thread -- Did Suzanne lose her cubical???
Sharon
Just go with the flow
About have to, Mema Jo!! Flowing very well this morning!
Sharon and go and go and go, be an energizer bunny!
That is right - just call me the Energizer Bunny!! I love pink!
Yes, JO, Think SUZANNE did lose her cubby hole, said boss was on his way.
Just don't "leave" a trail behind Engergizer Bunny!
Looks like Tai is sitting in the bamboo forest! Well, that means he made it through the night & didn't fall off the ledge.
Mits The outfit you have sounds like it's for a little angel named Maggie.
OK Paula - I'm going to communicate now..............
Reading the blog the next morning is like reading a mystery---Thought you all would never guess what "rubber thing" was keeping DANA, aka PINKY, aka VICKY, up at night----NILLA where did you get some of your answers---then sneakers v. snickers---I thought if DANA goes to bed w/out revealing the ans.---I was going to go after her, wake her up---& beat the answer out of her---KIDDING---but you all were so funny---and certainly entertaining---YOU ALL ARE GREAT----LOVE YA!
Norma You are delightful also! We love our Norma!
We were thinking about doing the same thing to her, NORMA
Hi everyone - home and ouchy
PAULA---They are asking when the sweatshirts with Todd's eagle pictures are going to be for sale-----HEY! HEY!---When are the shirts with a picture of TODD on it going to be ready-------Just thought I would ask for Vicky of IL---she wants to know---
Belle, Ouchy??????????
You have got that right Norma! Todd T Shirts!
I bet Belle went to the doc this morning. That would certainly constitute an ouchy on her part!
Norma How did you read my mind??? (With eaglets of course!)
Doesn't Belle go to the hairdresser Wednesday?? A sinus job and new hairdo, she will be brand new!
How did it go BELLE?
MITS---I was going to ask if you were going to get a piece of jewelery for Maggie to wear when she is christened----I gave my daughters & granddaughters a locket---It's a lovely keep-sake to hand down----My youngest child has 3 daughters---Her 1st child got her locket---but had to purchase a locket for the other two----That little outfit "onsie"" you described sounds adorable---She will be the best dressed little girl on the block!
Norma -
No one took a picture of Todd! They were just ogling, instead!
Maybe Belle meant "grouchy" - no, not our Belle!
BLUEFIELD SHARON----LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE BEAVERS!!!----I read that yesterday in the Charleston Gazzette-----You all are rated NO. 1-----COOL----W/follow you all this year----
NORMA, I will do everything in my power to make her the best kid on the block and so will her aunts.
Went well at the dr's but it was uncomfortable without doubt. Getting my hair done hopefully on Saturday. Tomorrow I go backto work full time
Mits - the outfit for under/after the Christening and the keepsake jewelry - perfect... You KNOW we need lots of pictures.
Yeah, but Todd has his picture on an old website of his! Couldn't we have drawn from memory????
Interesting, I have surfed the National zoo cam for over a year now and have never seen the micronesian kingfisher, well she is in her nest, and she has an egg, but they don't seem to be giving any info on it.....
I'm just kiddin Gals! Don't take that seriously!!!!!!!
Lun Lun just came out of her hammock. People came in to clean up the old bamboo, put the cradle looking thing in the middle of the hammock, then took cradle looking thing back out of the hammock and appear to be tightening the sides of the hammock. Still working on the corners of the hammock, putting out fresh bamboo. Now he has broken out the drill and going to work on it. He has muskles too!! :) Now he is looking for a lost screw or something. Okay, so this is not a fledging blow by blow, but it is something! Still digging on the ground for the lost object. Probably like a needle in a haystack but could probable pose a danger to Lun Lun. Woman crawling around on the floor looking, still to no avail. Must have found it cause he is tightening it up now. Tightening up the other corner now. I guess they need to keep a close check on this thing in case she has the baby on it. Don't want the whole thing crashing to the ground - you know, down will come baby, cradle and all! Pic froze up so more will be revealed!
Sure hope Nillabean is not overdoing it today!
Thanks Norma, we have gone to Wheeling all three of Andrew's high school years and won the championship once. Makes for a long season when we go to the championship. Everybody with the band is really tired by that time.
Great to see you're keeping your skills sharp for next eatlet season! Also nice tohear what is going on with Lun Lun - I so hope she has a little one...
ROFLMAO!!! SHARON, You are supposed to panda-cub watching, not booty-call watching.
Lun Lun is back, sitting just above the hammock on the rail. They did not put the cradle back in the hammock. She moves just like a little slug!
Mits, ROFLMAO. I was wondering if anybody would catch that. Sharp eye!!
Well, SHARON I stopped in my tracks and headed to the zoo, pronto!!!!
Now Lun Lun is stretched out face up over the pole and hanging on to an upper pole.
Kewl, Mits. He wasn't bad, huh?
Uh-oh, They'll be surfing those O.C. cams next, looking for the shirtless guys!
Paula, good idea. BRB!
So how big were his muscles??
Shucks, they have all got on shirts today!
No grossly large, just nice!!
Paula Sure glad you got the "shirtless" spelled right!
Tai is quite a fast little tree climber.
Now Lun Lun is leaning against the window eating bamboo.
Men in OC still have their shirts on!
Vicky-IL,
That would have been an untrue statement!
A million and 43 sparrows and 2 baby cardinals out here eating.
Sharon What are muskles
He has muskles too!! :)
LOL!!!
The baby cardinal who is transitioning into adulthood looks pretty strange with his beak part orange and part black.
Sure am thinking Nillabean is missing this thread today!
That is just putting an emphasis on muscles - SAY IT AS IT LOOKS - MUSKLES!!!
It will take her all night catch up reading and then posting to catch us up on her day!
Maybe Nilla is just resting this morning as she is supposed to work this evening, I think!
Now I have blue jays and some sore of black bird out here. He has a purplish head and tail and brownish body. Wait a minute, that don't really sound like a blackbird does it? ROFLMAO!
We call those Starlings around here!
Hey Kiddies.. I jst been surfin and watching some cams,, Atlanta Pandas was eatng bamboo along window site,, Denbury has a bird feeded cam up.. Tai was setting out on the porch waiting to get it for treat... Osprey in nest at NU site.. Yes i am going in to work from 4pm til 10 pm but will notbe doing nothing.. Ok kiddies time for ashower n piddle around here dress n go out to K-Mart for prescriptions filled... They give senior citizens 20% off over 50... Mits & Jo need to let me know about tomarrow also.. Sharon hope you get to feeling better.. Belle tomarrows big day for you, i know you cant wait to be with your kids again in classroom... Think I am going to get some Chinese for lunch before work...Ok shower time Huggsss, Nillabean
Woke up early to catch Suzanne this morning. Boss was coming she took a fast (out the back door type of rush).
Eagle was in early am in Maine; there a long time.
Ok I got alot of questions last night lol so funny you gals ((hugs)). Now Sharon just where are these muskles located on the "drillers" body?
Belle ouchy hope it feels better in alittle while.
Lun-Lun is back in the hammock again...
Ct baby oprey is eating fish..
wax
Certainly looks pretty nice at the beach today, but you are right...can't see any shirtless guys either...tried the kite loft cam, but the guys are too far away to get a good look!
Paula this must be your day to watch for men???
No Vicky this was not a starling. Much bigger than a starling. I have a starling that nests over my laundry room. They are aggravating and multiple by the thousands every year! :) This was maybe a grackle or something like that.
I hate I missed the 100 mark but was trying to get some work done. Congratulations Mits!!! You are starting to be real competition for me and I don't know if I like that or not!! LMAO!
Let me clarify that, "Shirtless men?"
Dana, that would be the gluteus maximus and biceps!!
TEE-HEE....Sharon.
NILLA watch the sodium in that chinese food, don't want to nag, but it is usally loaded.
Uh-Oh, there goes Tai looking for Mei, get ready for the fights to begin.
Vicky, wanted to see why Sharon got off the site so quick!
Actually, gotta give the eyes a break from the itsy-bitsy numbers on these printouts I am trying to reconcile!
Paula, do you work from home?
No, Vicky, although I used to take work home all the time. Finally got out of that, just work 6 days instead!
Although, looking at the computer screen for extended periods kills the eyes, too!
6 days!??? Are you going out of your mind yet?
Just About! We expanded last year, been behind ever since. Hoping to be caught up soon....playing around on here doesn't help! But, Oh well!
Could I get a job?????? (wink!)
What do you do Vicky?
Looks like CT Osprey Teddy is wrapped up in some string today..
LI osprey in the nest
Is anybody watching Lun Lun? Can't tell if she is scratching her butt or trying to push a baby out.
Ok Kiddies i am heading out and about before work.. Wish me well as i will be passing many stores that sell cigs.. Naaa i am fine been what 8 days now!!! Still havent used the patches , might just take them back for refund,,, I have done it this long onmy own and with HELP from ya'lllll .. Maybe get the nicotine chewin gum? Daughter called she is feeling alittle better.. Guess ya'll are critter cam watchin .. leave lots of reports.. I will be on from work after 4 pm.. Hugs 2 All, NillaBean... Oh surgery site and whole right thigh is now a beautiful shades of purples yellows n greens...lol Guess i am mending
Just was watching Lun, SHARON, then she disappeared, hope she gets on floor, if that cub is coming. When Mei had Tai, he came shooting out of her and hit the wall, probably why he is a little looney.
Going out for awhile. BBL! Any of my friends up in northern Montgomery county, look out, 270 closed in both directions near rt 109. Some truck pulled some power lines down. Idiot!
Cant leave yet checked Tiger cub cam and keeper just put out sone meat .. Mom and cubs are on cam eating..
I saw that Mits her disappear.. Sharon you keep and Eagle eye out okkkkkk.. Outa Hereeeeeeeeee
And poor Tai hit the wall when he was born? Bless his little heart. What a way to enter the world!
Lun Lun is eating bamboo right now.
Well, this place is dead!!
Now wait a minute there Sharon! I'm not dead yet!
At least the newspaper doesn't say I'm dead!
A time to turn — leaves, that is
If you can’t wait for autumn’s colorful display, look up. Some trees already wear a crown of bright yellow and brilliant red leaves. This is in our local newspaper today!
What's dead???? Someone hit a skunk?? Wasn't Nilla or Mits I think both were leaving. Sniff Sniff I don't smell nothing
Remember I got "the nose" lol
Glad to see everyone is still alive here.
Paula I've done about everything office wise, databases, oversee computer systems, accounting, not much I haven't been able to do in the office area!
Lun Lun is leaning leisurely against a post eating. Don't look like she is trying to have a pandalet at this moment anyway.
Pandalet?! Is that sorta like an Ospreylet?
let = baby
Hello Steven and friends. I found a site that is very interesting. I don't know if any of you have seen it yet. I have to click,"use this link to launch an external player" to see the live cam. Scroll down and click ,"video clips from the Dennis Puleston Osprey".
Here is the link. http://puleston.osprey.bnl.org/OspreyFund/2006/ospreycam.php
If you can't get this to work, maybe you could search it on googles.
humanlet
eaglet
ospreylet
pandalet
tigerlet
elephantlet
lionlet
buglet
snakelet
mouseylet
hee hee
That's the LI nest, Dennis Puleston Osprey Fund, if you need to google it. It is also on the Momsters links
It is definitely not a cow bird. I am sure what those are. I am pretty sure they are grackles.
Anon,
It's a really neat nest, it has sound and live video.
Sorry to have left and not said bbl. Paula I like all your "let"s.
I check no box, no dirt or weeds growing ontop of me; so I'm still alive.
They are suppose to do an up-date on Lun Lun tomorrow. Hope they do, I keep watching her.
In real life once got to see a camel born at the Baltimore Zoo. That was awesome..
Ratlet,
Birdlet,
Squirrelet,
and so on and so on!
Pretty Flowers WV Gal!
(Just teasing, Sharon!)
I have no idea what they are supposed to be called, either! Let's see....
antlet
dearlet
piglet
wormlet
catlet
doglet
hamsterlet
gerbilet
cricketlet
some of them work!
Why ty Paula..our babies picture kept making me wish they were there. Have to get self ready for the "new batch". I know our babies would want me to love their brothers and sisters.
So I'm ready......but guess what??
hummmm should I leave that question for another time????
They was thinking of killing or injuring me last night if I didn't tell, hummmmm???
I wish you all could see my little sparrow's tail feathers coming back. It is not looking near as pitiful!! Tiny little feathers sticking out!
Hit squad is on its way. And, we do know your real name now.
I got 150.
Getting daylight in Brisbane. Frieda is getting clearer!
Checkin i am at work and had the Chinese but didnt eat awhole lot... Refunded Nicoderm patches for gum.. First day of wearing capris and bothering my groin alittle..Time to check on Critter cams BBL
Sharon what kind of feed do you feed your poor disfunctional birds?
Lun Lun's humble abode does not appear near as elaborate as Mei and Tai's!
LOL. I just looked at the bag and it says "Wild Bird Food for Birds". What else would it be for? I buy it at Lowe's. Don't think that is what is making them dysfunctional but who knows. The one with the bulging eye has been here a couple of times. Makes me cringe every time. I can tell you that cardinals, sparrows and mourning doves are not an endangered species around here.
I use to buy my bird food at Lowe's all the time. Someone told me to try a feed store. I was always have birds that had eye sores, feathers weird. She said the food parents ate then layed eggs and hatched. So I tried the feed store. After that winter the next spring and summer I had better looking birds. I really didn't believe her but it happened.
Maybe it was just a coincidence.
Lun Lun when I checked was asleep inbetween doorway part in and part out.
The cradle swing they had for her isn't up on the tree limbs now.
No one at Maine
Puleston 2 in
New Hampshire over water 2 in
Conn. Lil Smurf gone blue smurf there
Tai was in another sectin leaving mom alone at this time.
Wash. State had one in duck in water
There is a new site for a falcom already hatched fuzzy white; google in falcom cam cmnh or just cmnh should come up.
Didn't go to Danbury farms yet
Oh grizzles are still there
Hopefully Belle will be back on the blog - Hope she is feeling better - maybe she is over at school making last minute preps for tomorrow.
I was watching Animal Planet on TV - shadow leopard cubs at the Nashville Zoo. They were beautiful!
Nilla Hope you feel comfy all evening JUST sitting there waiting on customers - Don't LIFT!
Dana Your flowers are very pretty.
Thank you Mema Jo. I still like your tree. It doesn't make me sad. I know Liberty and Belle will come back to it. Just the pics I had on of our babies did.
Go to Denbury Farm cam 2 fox is eating
Dana Did you take that pic of your flowers? They are absolutely beautiful???
Lun Lun just went through her little door and it closed behind her. No baby today I guess.
Must be nap time around here!
Getting ready to be nap time for me. Going to try to take a power nap before I head out for a little while. Work took way too long today!
Mei loves her 'rock' bed. Don't know how she can make it look so comfortable.
2 young eagles for sure and not sure if the others were young or adult, too high up. But Idecided as I left work today to drive over to the Marina, as it is maybe 5 minutes from where I work, so i was just about there anyway. Did my 20 minutes plus walking, and my reward!!! .There they were two young ones down close enough that I knew they were this years young, well They weren't mature with white, so I guess I know they were young but don't know how young.
Right away I thought "Darn I don't have my camera"! And I didn't have my dogs so messing with a camera would have been relatively easy.
Then on the way back to my car, two more (or perhaps the same two, but much too high for me to know whether they were adults or not. Beautiful, and soaring somewhat together as they would soar apart some and then back towards each other.
Means so much more now that I know what they have been doing (if adults) and how they have been changing (if young) over just a few months time.
I got my eagle fix...It was Slendid indeed!!!!!
Time walk the dogs and feed all 3 of us. Company for a while tonight. Will Blog at you later.
Dana,
Don't get anything on google with that!
Dana,
Got it when I put the letters in right, but it looks to me like they have already hatched and fledged!
Tai didn't let his momma go very long without jumping on her. CAM 1
I think he want the rock for himself.
Poor Mei trying to sleep and Tai all over her!! Would still love to hear a voice with his actions.
CT Osprey in nest, right in front of cam, beautiful view!
GLO Great news you have! Now I am certain that the sighting made your day. It could have been 'you know who'!
That is Baby Smurf in the nest. I figured he had left already. Way kewl!!
Mema Jo, can't be "you know who". They are coming this way first!
Looks huge, doesn't he Sharon. He should be leaving in September. Darn thing keeps disconnecting.
BBL, heading home! Have a great evening!
Glo Thank you for sharing. Oh my you made me feel like I was right there with you. My nect hurts alittle from looking up. Imagining the water, the air, the daylight and the soaring of 2 eagles/eaglets. Low enough to tell they truly were. Then higher, higher, higher into the sky soaring......oh I've got to "stop". I'm getting myself headache from being too high in the sky.
Thank you again Glo
I am very quiet tonight friends dont worry. Just alittle light headed,Tai is at the milk bar nursing and he seemed to be rather good for awhile. Lets see what happens after he gets finished..lol Oh and he was eating bamboo alot..
Sharon Maybe they are going in a very wide circle - In the wrong direction... I know they will be there before the cold winds blow - Maybe they are going to stop by the dam & mingle for awhile.
LOOK TO THE SKIES
LOL told ya he headed straight for her head for aromp..lol
Hate to tell you Nilla, my friend, but Hubby is taking me to the CrackerBarrell to eat.
Where are you Belle?
Enjoy your dinner at the CB, Mema Jo! Getting ready to head out for a while. BBL (around 9 or so).
Well that site Paula was a blow out. Gal gave wrong information. You are right it is last years not this years. Good to know though that there are others that make mistakes too lol.
On Jo I like their (CB's) chicken and dumplings. So good.
Nilla you don't have anything at work to take your BP with do you?
I'm here - got home from school and been resting...
Nilla how're you feeling?
I think everyone is away at the moment
How Belle how are you feeling?
Hi Dana! Like the pinky purple flowers and flutterby... I'm feeling a little abused tonight...but I guess that has to be done to get everything to heal properly...
How're you doin today?
Hi, can't stay long, fixing dinner for hubby. The report on Lun-Lun today is that the progesterone levels have not started to decrease yet, so, if she is pregnant they think it is still a week away.
Gee sorry Belle. Is it from the healing of the sinus?
Eaglet in the Maine nest..check it out
Belle, so sorry thinks are hurting today.
eagle just flew by nest in Maine, 1 still eating.
Mei is sitting by the ledge, so Tai can't get to it
Ohh an eaglet fix - that always makes things better - and the ME nest is so beautiful
Dana, love the flowers, where did you get them.
I want
wax!!!
