MITS said...

Both eagles at Maine.

wvgal_dana said...

MITS said...

EAGLES AT NE, WE AND SC.

wvgal_dana said...

Looks like Lord BW told over for the Mrs.

wvgal_dana said...

Ok who has candlelight duty up the tree for Belle tonight???

Just Vicky said...

I'll go Dana!

wvgal_dana said...

awww aren't you a sweetie Vicky

Just Vicky said...

Just love those eagles, even travel many miles to see them, so shucks, why wouldn't I go up that tree for a vigil???!!

wvgal_dana said...

Vicky your a nut in a funny way I mean that ( :

Bet you really enjoyed yourself with all those eagles at Glo's.

wvgal_dana said...

Well time to fix dinner

bbl

Just Vicky said...

Yes Dana, I'm nuts, a self admitted one at that!

As far as my visit with Glo and eagles last Friday & Sat., PRICELESS We did see many eagles and I think most of the pics that are on her film loop we ones that I took. (She will correct me if I am wrong!!)

MITS said...

EAGLES AT KENT CAM 1 AND 2

MITS said...

ACTUALLY ALL 3 CAMS.

MITS said...

BOTH IN THE NEST NOW...WHAT A SITE.

MITS said...

Looks like rain on their feathers.

MITS said...

both eagles our nest.

MITS said...

Lib brought in food.

MITS said...

Eggs are showing.

MITS said...

Belle was hungry..

Mema Jo said...

That was a beautiful sight! Liberty taking care of Belle as Belle takes care of their eggs.
Most of these couples we are watching, are very considerate of each other's needs. It's only when they are repairing the nest that they squabble with each other.

paula eagleholic said...

Done eating...turned eggs and settled back in

MITS said...

She has something on the side of the nest that she has been snacking on also today, got some leftovers, she should be set for the night.:):)

MITS said...

Darn, he come the shadows:(.

MITS said...

Eagles at ALL 3 California nests.

Mema Jo said...

Eagle at Kent up on the limb.

I will be glad that by tomorrow hopefully the snow will have disappeared from OUR nest.

MITS said...

Eagle has been there on the limb, since I took the earlier pictures. Going to fix dinner...

MITS said...

Just went on to earthcam.com and went to NO, missed the parades, but people are walking around Bourbon Street...pretty quiet right now.

wvgal_dana said...

Certainly been sitting on that limb for a long long time in Kent.

MITS said...

He sure has , Dana...off to watch NCIS...BBL.

Just Vicky said...

Did you see Belle turn the 3 eggs a while ago?? I did! BUt I missed when Lib brought food, if anyone has that pic I'd sure like to have it, bvconnell@sbcglobal.net

wvgal_dana said...

Mits what do you watch after NCIS?

MITS said...

I usually watch HOUSE, Dana, but it is not on, because of American Idol, so I was watching Law and Order, Criminal Intent, but it is not keeping my attention. Will be watching Boston Legal at 10. Belle looks like she has her wings spread out over the eggs, might be raining there.

MITS said...

Just looked at Sherperdstown radar and it is raining, looks heavy too.

Mema Jo said...

Belle is tenting! We have rain here but not a heavy rain.. Temps must still be up because that with the rain the snow is leaving......
Schools here though due to the walkers, will be 2 hrs late again. So you know where I will be in the early morning - BUS DUTY....

MITS said...

I see her tenting, Jo.

Mema Jo said...

I looked at her after I read your remark about her wings. Does your radar show any rain down in Cambridge

Now Dana You & Mits are not allowed to watch the same shows 2 nights in a row!!! lol

Mema Jo said...

Mits, is that TianTian on the Cam 1?

Really sprawled out!

wvgal_dana said...

I usually watch Law and Order Criminal Intent lol

wvgal_dana said...

Sorry Jo neither of us knew lol

floralgirl said...

Yep, it's raining here, too. Can't believe Frederick county is 2 hr delay tomorrow

wvgal_dana said...

Jo you'll never never never believe this one. Mits and me also watch some webcams that are the same on the internet lmbo ( : wink

wvgal_dana said...

Did everyone eat their donut today???

movin said...

Aaahhhh, the camera is working again... Hi, everybody.

Is it my imagination or are Liberty and Belle both in the nest tonight trying to keep it dry as possible??

Got home too late to see many nests tonight.

Have a good stub of a week,
Jim

Mema Jo said...

I could not find a KINKLING....

So I'm eating pound cake!

Mema Jo said...

Megan - It's because of the sidewalks in town or at any school that the Walkers use. This morning I can't see what the 2 hrs delay accomplished... Same for tomorrow in my book.

Mema Jo said...

Jim We think it is just Belle and she is tenting due to the rain.

paula eagleholic said...

I see her tenting, too.

BTW, the West End nest has an egg this evening!

Mema Jo said...

Well I think you all are going for the 10 o'clock shows..... I may need
to go play my games..........

floralgirl said...

I understand, cause sidewalks are still ice covered at daughter's school, too. But makes it very difficult for working parents. Fred. county is the only school system with delays tomorrow.

Mema Jo said...

Paula - Thanks for that news.

Now - will they be taking it from there in order to hatch & then place the chick back in the nest??

Mema Jo said...

Megan - maybe the transportation dept will see that and cancel the 2 hrs.

Mema Jo said...

Paula, I just took time to read about the removal of the eggs on the WE site. Be great if video was on & we saw them doing that. I can't imagine how it is done with the eagle nesting all the time.........

wvgal_dana said...

Well I'm saying night all and going to watch tv; probably fall asleep watching it. lol

Morning Suzanne

Mema Jo said...

Paula - where did you get the pic of all those doggies who are wiggling their noses?

MITS said...

JO,that is Mei Xiang on cam 1. Good news about WE, Paula, please give us the heads up when they remove the egg.

movin said...

THANKS, MEMA JO, I LOOKED AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES, BUT I CAN'T DECIDE. THERE'S TOO MUCH EAGLE FOR ONE, IT LOOKS LIKE, BUT THERE'S NOT ENOUGH EAGLE FOR TWO. I GUESS SHE'S A BETTER TENTER THAN I THOUGHT.

JIM

paula eagleholic said...

They will try to wait until all the eggs are laid at the nest before going in to remove them. They will replace the real eggs with wooden fake ones. The eagles will incubate the fake eggs.They will sit on them until they are ready to put the chick(s) back into the nest, at which time they will remove the fake egg, and place the chick in the nest w/ a broken egg shell. I think they will try to remove them within a couple of days of being laid...because the shells are thin and will crack from the DDT.

If I find out when they are removing them...I'll give you a heads up.

paula eagleholic said...

Jo,
I don't remember where I found that pic! Did you look at all the pics tonight? We have Egg pics.

MITS said...

Thanks, Paula,,,,Yes, it is raining in Cambridge tonight.

MITS said...

Jim, Belle is a really good tenter.....:)

Mema Jo said...

Just got back from reading the comments & seeing the egg pics, Paula. That was good!!!

Mema Jo said...

I bet that first thing tomorrow am all those bloggers are going to be tuned into the WE cam since it went off on them right after spotting the egg!

Mema Jo said...

Time to call it a day


Good Night All
Pleasant dreams & peaceful sleep
Prayers going up for everyone



Good Morning Suzanne

MITS said...

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE, AND CONGRATS TO THE WE EAGLES ON THIER FIRST EGG OF THEIR SEASON...MORNING, SUZANNE

MITS said...

Belle and I are both awake, but I'm heading to sleep now.

floralgirl said...

Well, I'd say the cam has stopped, because it's too dark a picture for 7 am.

floralgirl said...

Hey Suzanne, guess that freaking battery isn't holding a charge. nope, haven't been watching cams, dealing with the crisis of the day here, work van won't start. Waiting for the one problem free day(gonna be a long wait) LOL-

MITS said...

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...well as ausual "THE" cam is down again.

MITS said...

Both EAGLES AT MAINE,

MITS said...

One just flew off.

Mema Jo said...

Good (Too Early for Jo) Morning Suzanne, Megan and Mits! Heading over for BUS DUTY. Rain last evening made some of the snow disappear & I guess the sunshine today will also help.
OUR cam - NO COMMENT

Checked out all cams that have daylight! I'll be back later this morning - Hang in there!

Megan- Did you leave your jumper cables over at the tree battery?
You just are not suppose to be where you were headed just yet...

MITS said...

Suz, on the osprey page. Lisa has a pic of a mystery bird that visited yesterday.

MITS said...

My robins are in and out of here all winter...its been a week and a half since I saw them...the bird at BW looks like one of those birds that hang out at SC, Paula would know the name of it.

MITS said...

EAGLE AT NE.

MITS said...

EAGLE AT CO...

floralgirl said...

Mystery bird, looks like a type of swallow maybe-not sure, get out your magnifying glass, Mits, it helps. Mystery bird at NCTC also, it's very blue...HA,ha,ha-Later..

MITS said...

Megan, that is your WVA BLUE BIRD, found ONLY in Sherperdstown, WVA! YUK-YUK!

MITS said...

KENT is just and awesome sight in the a.m.

MITS said...

Must be my eyes, but it looks like an eagle high in the branch at KENT.

MITS said...

Eagle back in Maine...nestoration going on.

MITS said...

Its probably just the tree trunk????

MITS said...

I just saw that Suz, think it is an eagle in the nest:).

MITS said...

Diffently an eagle.

MITS said...

They even have the correct time on these cams.

paula eagleholic said...

Need to find those techies.....

MITS said...

BOTH EAGLES AT NE.

MITS said...

A picture is worth a thousand words, Suzanne:).

MITS said...

Morning Paula, you are the busy beaver at WE forum:):):).

MITS said...

That is just breath-taking. to watch the a.m. dawning with an eagle in the nest.

MITS said...

LOL....They are both lookin in the hole.

MITS said...

Nope no egg yet.

MITS said...

Too cute..

MITS said...

I think I the pic I had of them copulating was from the 17th.

MITS said...

That was just great, that 3rd cam will really be up close and personal when the eaglets arrive.

MITS said...

I can't remember, I thought it was at least 2 weeks after copulating, but I don't know if the deed was done before the 17th, so it could be any day. Loraine said yesterday the eagles were ready, but Mother Nature was not very much help, she said they had rain, snow, hail and high winds yesterday.

MITS said...

Need to go get food...brb.

paula eagleholic said...

5-10 days on the eggs....but they copulate so much....it's hard to tell when the eggs will actually be laid!!!

MITS said...

I'm sure the 17th was not the 1st time. So it is anybodys' guess.

MITS said...

Had bacon in the microwave and realized it is ASH WEDNESDAY... no meat for me today:).

wvgal_dana said...

Good Morning cam watchers.

Sure thing 1st pulled up our cam before coming to comments. We hang in there but it's been such a disappointment. Sad when can't see ... happy when can.

Suzanne you've been busy this morning.

wvgal_dana said...

Suzanne you've been to BW. There where the osprey nest is. The mystery bird. It wasn't on the edge of the box. Is there something that would be where it was standing for it to stand on???? To make it as high as the box??

MITS said...

WOW, that is bright! Morning Dana.

MITS said...

EAGLE AT NE AND CO.

MITS said...

Of course the eagle at WE is sitting on her egg. PAULA what is her name?

MITS said...

2 EAGLES AT CO.

paula eagleholic said...

Her name is Wray. She is the one without any wingblings (wing tags). The other female w/ the 69 on her wings is Dianna. The male is 01 - but we have given him the nickname of Superman and Speedy Gonzales. :)

paula eagleholic said...

Superman because it was one Male and 2 females....then Speedy Gonzales because it was WBTYM :)

MITS said...

Ok, :):):), I give up...WBTYM????

MITS said...

Going to go get dressed and ready for the ZOO.

wvgal_dana said...

Oh my just came back in and read lol Mits just think alittle on it I had too.......then it was like omg I got it !!

MITS said...

OK...I got it:):):)!!!!!

MITS said...

I'm still dressing warmly, the snow and ice on the ground reflect up and makes it chilly. Fun time we had watching the KENT EAGLES this a.m.:).

MITS said...

Heading out to the Zoo..TTUL!

paula eagleholic said...

Eagle in our nest.....
