I thought it looked more grassy too. I have checked in several tiems since 6 am but haven't seen anybody hanging around but they could have been and gone between checks. Why would they be working on the nest if they didn't have something to put in it????????????HUMMMMMM
Good morning all. It doesn't look like too many people up yet. Nothing in the nest yet this morning, but it does look a little softer and getting ready for an egg. I'm with you Jill. With all that comfy stuff in there, I would think that there would be a little one to follow. Let's hope!
When I first opened the site, there was gray fluff everywhere, and I could only see the older chick! But finally after a couple of refreshes, the younger one appeared...he had been half under grass and half under his sibling.
GOOD A.M. EAGLE BUDDIES---JENNIFER--SHARON---JILL--PAULA & CAROLINA BEACH MOM---It's going to be a BEAUTIFUL day----Maybe today will be the DAY!!-----I'm late checking in---My kids always call on Sat. a.m.---(most of the time)---Scanned the other blog----SHARON--CONGRATS!!! to MATTIE----That's WONDERFUL she won!!!
Good morning normabyrd! Welcome to another beautiful day. Yes, hopefully this will be a day for our nest. Has anyone seen any eagles in our nest this morning yet?
Talking about the grass, Sharon and Jill, on my puter, it looks like they've moved a whole bale of grass in this morning and spread most of it around... How's it look on yours??
Just dropped by the house for a sec. Does look different than this morning. Don't have time to look at BW to see what the fur is. Could be a raccoon or rabbit. A small fox maybe. Can't think of anything else that wanders the swamps over there. Muskrat but I think they are black.
Good morning everyone. No eagle sightings for me yet this am at nCTC either. I would agree though they have been there and actually Sharon Momster seems to have spotted them. The nest is soft and cush looking...they'll be back very soon I can feel it in my feathers. Have a great day of Eagle viewing , eyes to the skies and NCTC nest as well.
Good Morning Everyone! Our nest looks very inviting to an eagle who would be ready to lay an egg or two! Hope Belle thinks the same. Glad Lisa at BW gave us the heads up of 'duck feathers'. That must have been very confusing for those of you who saw it first thing this morning.
They have changed the ME CAM set- up haven't they?----In their update----they are expecting a hatching soon---(April 9) I think!!!---even though they were off their nest for a while---& had the 2 storms---
CAROLINA BEACH MOM---Missed your HELLO----Yes---SHARON has a pic of them in the nest this a.m.---It does sound promising----But with weather like this---ALL IS RIGHT WITH THE WORLD---ho!
Top of the morning to all of you eagle family, What about our Mattie !!!!!!!!! you go, girl. Congratulations Sharon. Thanks for link, Sandy. We continue to pray for your Mother and for your family, too. I agree, the cup does look differently this am. Have a blessed day all. Must do some yucky housework. BBL donna
The VA LADY & her "Little Rebels" are enjoying the day----3 SHENANDOAH'S screens are black---JAMES R.---FALCON with her beautiful eyes---looked straight at the camera-----
TAI acts so COOL!----Sits & chews his bamboo----pretends he doesn't know the crowd 'ahhhhs' at every little thing he does!!!! WHAT A SHOW OFF----ho1 ho!
Just came in for lunch after working out in the yard for awhile. Glad to hear the problem solved about the BW nest. Also Glad to hear that Sharon saw our eagle couple in the nest this morning and got a pic. Everytime I check back, the nest is empty.
It looks like everything is on hold. Have looked in on all the eagle sites and all seem to be sleeping or sitting. Still no eagle in our nest. I must just miss it everytime. BBL
The Final Four in basketball has started with Georgetown playing Ohio. Soooooo guess I'll call it a day for today. Good night eagle watchers. Tomorrow brings a new day and maybe some action on the nest
Thought the nest looked different. They sure are going to a lot of work if they aren't expecting company. I don't clean my house that much when I am having company. LOl
I'm sorry I was so excited I cant even spell. Both eagles showed up at 7:39 EST and stayed for aprox 6-7 minutes. I have been watching all day off and on. A little house keeping and off they went. Looks like they are preparing for company. Hope so.
Good evening everyone. I am glad Liberty and Belle were at the nest this evening. You know, it is just like they never sat on those eggs for 30-some days. It is like they are starting from the beginning. Mother Nature is unbelievable and so are Lib and Belle.
Mattie and I have spent the day spring cleaning. What a chore. I hate cleaning. I am by nature very lazy!! Maybe I shouldn't admit that on here! :):):)
Paula - The last eight are from today. They span a period of under an hour. Then it was off to Old Salty's for an early dinner before watching Georgetown lose. :-(.
Good Morning all, Wishing you once again a Blessed Sabbat. I up up early and off to work. Wanted you to know that Lib and Belle di dmake their usual 6:45 ish stop by the nest this morning.
Good morning everyone. I hope everyone has a wonderful Palm Sunday and April Fool's Day. Justin has already started on the last one! I have been watching the nest since about 8:10 and have seen no activity but am still watching.

Morning everyone!
No Eagle sightings yet on my part, but it does look like they are revamping the egg cup. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Good morning everybody. The egg cup does look different this morning. Looks more grassy.
I thought it looked more grassy too. I have checked in several tiems since 6 am but haven't seen anybody hanging around but they could have been and gone between checks. Why would they be working on the nest if they didn't have something to put in it????????????HUMMMMMM
MOrning, all. No sightings here yet either....
New view on the Osprey cam at BW, and NO view on the eagle cam at BW.
Prayers for your Mom, Sandra.
EAGLE ALERT IN OUR NEST!
And gone already.
Norfolk is up and working
OMG what is all 0ver the BW eagle nest? Looks like fur.
Good morning all. It doesn't look like too many people up yet. Nothing in the nest yet this morning, but it does look a little softer and getting ready for an egg. I'm with you Jill. With all that comfy stuff in there, I would think that there would be a little one to follow. Let's hope!
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE. Right, Paula, what is that stuff at BW??? Looks like fuzz to me. Are both eaglets there????
Yes,, Mits there are both there. Have seen both move, too.
WHEW!! I thought we lost a chick at BW!
When I first opened the site, there was gray fluff everywhere, and I could only see the older chick! But finally after a couple of refreshes, the younger one appeared...he had been half under grass and half under his sibling.
Anyone know what the fluff is from?
By the way, have a great day.
Jim

Finally Mom is there at BW. Still don't know what that stuff is.
I can't imagine what that would be all over the nest at BW. Main eagle nest is swaying in it's tree, and feeding time seems over at Norfolk.
Might have been a grey squirrel or a rabbit.
HI MITS---JIM---I can't figure out what the "grey stuff" is----MOM is there & she seems to be checking it out too----grey feathers of some sort??
Good morning normabyrd! Welcome to another beautiful day. Yes, hopefully this will be a day for our nest. Has anyone seen any eagles in our nest this morning yet?
Could the fluff, fur or whatever at BW be from something that they ate already in the mornings feeding?
I think Paula is right, it looks as though they might have had a rabbit or squirrel for breakfast.
Whatever it is, it's great camouflage for the chicks.
Jim
Doesn't look like squirrel fur---Use the POP-UP---The feathers or fur looks too "curly"----
Talking about the grass, Sharon and Jill, on my puter, it looks like they've moved a whole bale of grass in this morning and spread most of it around... How's it look on yours??
Jim
BW eaglets were up eating, are now passed out again :)
Just dropped by the house for a sec. Does look different than this morning. Don't have time to look at BW to see what the fur is. Could be a raccoon or rabbit. A small fox maybe. Can't think of anything else that wanders the swamps over there. Muskrat but I think they are black.
Looks pretty inviting in our nest, Jim.
Love the camoflouge thought at BW

Just heard from Lisa at BW, she says, while they were fixing the cam looks like one of the adult ealges plucked a duck for a meal.:).
Lisa has the update on the eagle cam page now...I love the new view of the osprey cam.
DR. MITS----Thanks---for setting us all straight----That's why those eaglets are so "PLUMP"---they eat all the time----Growing in leaps & bounds!!!!

Lisa has info for the EAGLET NAMING COMPETITION on her site.
Both parents at VA.
Hi all going to check out cams. Was up early to go out. Back to bed slept most of day. Wow I must have needed the catch up.
Happy about Liberty and Belle. Laughing that Steve and them didn't get anything done. When Liberty and Belle hit the "live feed".
Going to check out cams.
The Final Four in basketball has started with Georgetown playing Ohio. Soooooo guess I'll call it a day for today. Good night eagle watchers. Tomorrow brings a new day and maybe some action on the nest

Eagle at the nest

Eagls both on the nest...
EAGLE ALERT BOTH IN OUR NEST
Eagles on Animal Planet
I'm sorry I was so excited I cant even spell. Both eagles showed up at 7:39 EST and stayed for aprox 6-7 minutes. I have been watching all day off and on. A little house keeping and off they went. Looks like they are preparing for company. Hope so.
Crap. Georgetown Lost.
Glad L & B were back in the nest tonight....
Good evening everyone. I am glad Liberty and Belle were at the nest this evening. You know, it is just like they never sat on those eggs for 30-some days. It is like they are starting from the beginning. Mother Nature is unbelievable and so are Lib and Belle.
Mattie and I have spent the day spring cleaning. What a chore. I hate cleaning. I am by nature very lazy!! Maybe I shouldn't admit that on here! :):):)
I'm with ya on that one, Sharon, I hate cleaning too!
Hey all! Slow day at Blackwater. Lots of people, not so many birds. They've been getting lots of good press in the area.
Paula - Yes, crap, Georgetown lost. I went to three previous Final Fours in 82, 84 and 85. They'll be back again soon.
I added today's shots to the last gallery. Last 8 here are new:

Wow, Bob, did you see all that today?
That second eagle pic is perfect.
Looks like you got the new cam setup. I can see new wood :)
Oh, and Lisa updated the eagle cam picture gallery! Lots of pictures in there to look at!
Good night all. Thanks, Bob.
