I am heading up to Northern Maine in the morning for a river trip on the St.John River. Needless to say I will be away from computers and thus my next entry will be in a week of so.

Hey Steve! Have an awesome trip!!!
Hello all others! It looks like the BW chickies have flown the coop!! I hope they quickly learn how to fish, and drop a few in on Mama osprey. This whole "Mother Nature" thing can be so sad at times. oops, gott go!

Thanks Norma! I'm sorry I wasn't able to join the nest visit on Monday. If it had been a little later in the day, I would have been there. I sure do love seeing the pictures, and putting faces with names! I still have the pictures from last year's first visit!

I have returned from having a lovely lunch. I did email Steve to see if he might give us an extra thread or 2 while he is away on his trip.
It is cold and nasty and trying to rain here in the valley. I need SUNSHINE! Need to read what I missed on the previous thread. I have to find out about those 20 years!!!
HI JO----Hope you all enjoyed the Birthday lunch!!!---It has rained all day here---cool too!!---But needed the rain badly!!!
That was a very special 20 yr anniversary celebration, Megan. Love your new pic!
Candy, we will be anxious to hear about the play when you return to Lancaster.
BW osprey still off the eggs..Lisa says she is going to the refuge this weekend to check out things. She also want to try to see what the eaglets are doing - branching or flying.
Norma I can't find ButaButa in the day room. I think it is Tai sleeping outside on that cam.
Meant to say to Candy about returning to WINCHESTER from LANCASTER.....
I've posted threads for the week for you folks.
Thank you Steve. You know we couldn't go a whole week without new threads. LOL
The NY redtail hawk chicks are starting to look like hawks! WOW I had not seen them for a few days! They grew overnight, I'm sure.
Thank you Steve! We will make good use of them.
Osprey standing on edge of nest box. Can't tell which one
Still standing there. One of the eggs doesn't look normal. Maybe just the angle
Osprey still at the side of the nest. Not making any effort to go to the eggs. Doesn't it know it is cold out today. Been off the eggs at least 5 minutes
Maybe it heard me. Moved closer to the eggs. Not sitting on them but closer.
Hi Jill! Hope you're having a good day.
Osprey just looks as though she is thinking about NOT getting back on those eggs!
Back on eggs now. Keeps looking off to the left at something.
No sooner said then she went right over to them and is once again nesting.
She heard me say it was cold. LOL
Hey Jo. Trying to get this house clean for surprise party tomorrow. Can't get motivated.
Lisa us just updated BW. It's possible that both eaglets have fledged!!!!!!!
Jo she's gone. was looking out to the left then disappeared.
Thanks for the new threads for the upcoming week, Steve. How thoughtful of you!
Now we can post away!! :):)
Saw that Suzanne. One was in the nest just shortly before she updated. But briefly.
Osprey is back, preening.
Im sorry should have been Sunny not Suzanne. AT least it started with an S
She is back at corner of nest - eating??
I sent Lisa an email earlier - told her the eaglets have been gone most of the morning...
Something is bothering the Osprey. Out of camera view to the left. She keeps looking over there
Seems to be preening more that eating. Maybe there is a male off to the left she is trying to get cleaned up for. LOL
ONE BW EAGLET IN NEST
Baby back in eagle nest
Anne,
So sorry to hear about the accident. My condolences.
BOTH EAGLETS IN THE BW NEST
This return of the eaglets to the nest for meals brings back so many many fond memories of our 3 that fledged and how we waited just to see them come back.
YAYY!! If they have fledged, there's nothing better than seeing they made it out into the world, and back to the nest again! Go Justice & Majesty!!
Need to leave for a few... BBL
Eaglet must be eating his fledging reward meal :)
Both eaglets back at BW
Osprey still not sitting on the eggs
HI EAGLE BUDDIES!!!---You all are moving right along----ho!---I began to think everyone had flown the coop!!!----Just me & the 'BIRDS'----& they weren't doing anything unusual!!!---I AGREE JO----Those Red-Tail Hawk chicks are HUGE!!
Osprey gone again
back again.
HI JILL!!!----GRANT CO. is having a FIRST FORT MULLIGAN DAY on June 9,----To be held on a hill overlooking the town of Petersburg, is one of the few remaining earthen forts in the Civil War---Noticed a pic of Pvt. John Ours!!!---John is one of my favorites!!!
Could the eaglets have caught the fish themselves. They are pretty small.
Cool. Where did you find the info? Did you see Bob Mohr? He should have been in there too. Big cival war buff. Not too mention he used to be a hottie. LOL
JILL---Fun to watch the eaglets fledge!----Last year our EAGLETS did that until LIB & BELLE cut off food, etc.---ho!---We could hardly keep up with them!!!! SUNNY can remember that!!!!
I am trying to get my house clean but keep walking by the computer and hitting refresh. Not getting much done. LOL
JILL---It's in the Cumberland morning paper---SARAH MOOMAU has headed a comm. to put together this fundraising event, etc.--& lists all the Civil War Preservation Trust, groups, etc.---info call 257-4707----
Ok I will go look it up. Thanks
Star and Spirit both in nest, raising up a ruckus!
Is it possible that Mama osprey will dessert the eggs, knowing that she can't care for them alone if they hatch?
Back to one, think it is Spirit
Other one up the tree at Kent
Spirit has dark spot over eye, correct?
Looks like she is trying to make up here mind or else something really is out there. She Keeps looking out to the left.
Norma, can't get Cumberland Times to come up. Will try again later.
Per Lisa's last web log -
If this goes on for a long time without a second parent, at some point the single adult might abandon the eggs or have to leave them alone for so long that the embryos will not develop properly for hatching.
Now looking towards cam again - I emailed Lisa for her thoughts....
PAULA---JO---JILL---SUNNY---CHECK OUT THE EXTRA THREADS STEVEN JUST LEFT----WE SEEM TO BE GOING THE WRONG WAY----WE NEED TO GO DOWN TO THE BOAT PICS HE HAS POSTED---
Figures Norma they don't have that article on line. It was today right?
One eaglet left again and one in nest at BW
No we are going the right way. That is Saturdays thread. He just added those pictures a few minutes ago. It goes Friday at the bottom to Friday/Saturday at the top.
NOrma, the boat pic thread is for Saturday.....look at the heading
This thread was already here when he add the others so that is why I think this one is for today.
That must have been Star in the nest w/ a bad do. Spirit is back in the nest now. Looks like eatin' Time !! :):)
Steve, we'll expect to see more pictures when you get back! I'm going kayaking in Virginia tomorrow, but I don't think it will quite measure up to your trip!
paula--THAT IS WHAT I THINK--BUT SOMEONE HAS STARTED THE OTHER THREAD ON THE OTHER END---MAKE SENSE???
It was Wanda, I don't think she realized that there were 2 Friday threads. Gotta show up early around here to know what is going on.
STEVEN----I have been a member of NATURE'S CONSERVANCY for 15 years------Does that mean I can go along?????
STEVEN wrote the date "MAY 18, 2007" above it----That's what has caused all the confusion!!!---No big deal as long as we all go the same way!!!
I wonder if the hussy is back at BW?? Osprey left and back a minute or two later.
Yup, Wanda is lost amongst the threads!!
VA eaglets been have a flap fest. LOL
2 eaglets back at BW
VA eaglets short hop flying in nest
Kent snoozing
SC cam is down
Osprey still off the eggs
Steve who we all wish a wonderful week has left us one week full of new threads as he is going on a trip to Maine.
I think we need to take a good look at the days as he has divided them out so we are all on the same day and page as we post to threads this week while he is gone. He has taken very good care of us as always.
Thanks Steve Do have a wonderful time
OK so a few of you have already discovered we have a decision to make about where to post for tomorrow. I too vote for the boat thread LOL.
OK back to watching eagles and a spot of tea with some carrot cake is on tap at my house.
Norma, the date is today's date, look closely it is the only one there, the other threads have no date on them.
Everybody else: Tomorrows thread is the one with the river and the boat. After that we should be okay no more duplicate days.
Steve can't leave us alone for 5 mins before we are in trouble LOL
Something is definitely bothering the osprey. Won't sit on the eggs, keeps looking around, and keep flying off.
Definitely worried about BW osprey mama and eggs. Something is not right. I may try to get out there tomorrow.
Heidigirl my condolences for you and yours. Jo hope you enjoyed lunch with Jennifer, Steven have a great trip and hope the weather is nice.
Cool here today and wet, just catching up with the threads...
Bob, she has been nervous all afternoon, mostly off the eggs but on the edge of the box. Then would fly off and come back but no evidence of food that I could see. She was preening a lot.
Mama Osprey finally back on the nest. I wonder if the male showed back up with the new hussy and then wanted back in - guess whatever was bothering her has left.
BW eaglet is gone again - aahhh, FREEDOM AT LAST! :-)
Didn't last long Paula she is up again/
Darn, she is up again.
Parent and eaglet at BW
Mama osprey looks like she has that stink eye mama fox was giving me when I got too close.
She is preening, but watchful
Watching the poor OSPREY at BW---Still not on the eggs---Hangs on the side---with her head down---Like she is MOURNING!!!
KENT EAGLETS are the cutest around----They are being fed--Such polite little FUZZ BALLS!!!----
Maybe she is mourning, Norma. Maybe she knows he is not coming back. So sad.
CU later.
OSPREY still hanging on the side with her head down---FEEL SO SORRY FOR HER & the EGGS!!!---LATER---GOING TO DINNER!---
I still think something is wrong with one of the eggs. Two look nice and oval the other looks flat.
Norma wheres dinner, I will be over. LOL
I did leave for a few... Now I need to leave for a few more. Looks like the Osprey Saga is a continuing mystery. Yes, Bob you best go down there & help us know what is the real story!
I emailed Wanda to come on down to this thread. I am sure we can all stick together for this upcoming week!
I will return later - keep the blog posted with all your comments as you do so well. BBL
GOOD EVENING LADIES--
Sorry I messed up by posting on the wrong thread. I realized as soon as I sent my comment that I was on the wrong day and there was no way of retracting. I am still learning the rules of blogging.
1 eaglet at BW
Osprey Mom still off the eggs. I am guessing that she is trying to abandon them. It must be hard.
No dinner here. Just snacking :)
That's OK, Wanda. Don't you have a trash can at the bottom of your post? That is for "trashing" it, LOL.
Maybe I spoke too soon, Mama is on the eggs.
PAULA--
Are you serious about the "trashcan" on my post? I have wondered why no one else has that. I am still quite new to computers and don't understand a lot of things I run into!
2 eaglets at BW - wonder if they will spend the night in the nest?
Mama off the eggs.
Wanda -
There sure is something new to learn about computers every day! Trash away!!
Aww,,, Mama osprey back on the nest.
At least on BW eagle is going to spend the night in his or her own bed, LOL
Wanda, I will come over and give you a computer lesson. LOL. I am real good at putting trash away. HE HE.
JILL
Have any idea why I had a trashcan at the bottom of my post? No one else does.
Wanda,
Each poster has a trash can at the bottom of only their posts. If you want to delete your post, click on the trash can. Blogger will ask you if you want to delete your post. When you are done, it brings you back to this blog, but sometimes it looks different, so click on the NCTC Eagle Cam Daily at the top and re-enter the blog.
Good evening everyone. Hope all is well with you!
Hey Wanda,
What Paula said. LOL
PAULA and JILL
Thanks for the "Trashy Lesson". I understand it now!
What is all this TRASH talk about?
Wanda - When I was new to the blog, I asked the same question about why am I the only one who has a trash can?
So, therefore Gal, I am right there with ya! I can laugh about it now thinking oh my how stupid will those bloggers think I am... But I kept right on with it learning as much as I could!
HI SHARON
Have a good evening all.
Yes Jo, I do feel stupid at times but I enjoy learning new things about this computer. It takes me to places that I never thought possible.
I just had a very luscious belated Mother's Day dinner with our daughter down at Mealey's in NewMarket (Bestest crab cakes ever). Such a nice visit!
Checking the cams and I see the osprey on the eggs.. Hope Lisa can clue us in as to what is going on after her visit to the refuge.
Jill - I forgot who you were surprising tomorrow..??
What ya up to Sharon? Did you mean or did I miss your Proud Momma news on here?
Feeding time at KENT - Momma (STAR) is up in the tree while Dad (Spirit) is doing the feeding.
Bless her little heart. Mama Osprey still on the eggs.
Jo It's my husbands 50th. And has it been a pain. I think we have changed the plans at least 5 times. No we have to worry about the weather. Shew. And keeping him from the house. Had it all planned then found out his oldest will be in the area in a wakeboard comp. So had know idea when he would be home or not. Finally got it all figured out. I think. NOw if we can get everything decorated in 1/2 hour we will be good. LOL
Wanda,
We can "talk trash" anytime you want, LOL.
I got some more pictures loaded from my CA trip
From Sunday Apr 29
Santa Rosa Hike
And Mon Apr 30
On the way to Morrow Bay
Good luck with the party, Jill. I'm sure you'll get it all figured out how to decorate in 30 min, LOL. Hope everyone has a grand time!
Just finished viewing SantaRosaHike!
WOW! AWESOME!
Those photos were so interesting - almost felt like I was on the trip - glad you had Beannie along! I bet you still have more photos to show!
Jill Good luck with the party & have fun!
WOW what a long day and so many posts to catch up on.
Went out to make sure my cherry trees were getting enough water and see if they are still in shock when I heard all these birds just singing away. I have 12 trees on my property and looked up at one and saw a nest. Lo and behold there was a bird just sitting there so I guess she is incubating. Decided to look at the the trees after I ran inside for my binoculars and OMG there were 5 other nests one bigger then the next. I did see a bird spreading her/his wings on one of the trees where there was a hollow, it looked like a tufted titmouse but the color was hard to make out due to the cloud covereage this evening.
Tomorrow is another day...
Jo crabcakes? I love crabcakes, looks like a trip to New Market sometime soon :)
Hope you get to pull of your surprise for your husband Jill.
Robyn - you have had a very busy day. Hope those birds don't wake you up too early. Still have the kitten?
Robyn - bet you can't wait to see those nests in daylight! How cool!
PAULA--I just finished hiking Santa Rosa and boy am I tired. (It was beautiful)
Robyn
Be sure to let us know what kind of nests you have.
GOOD NIGHT ALL
Jo, the birds can never wake me up. Living in the woods the past ten years you grow accustomed to sounds that aren't citified like sirens, garbge trucks, people yellng lol.. The kitten is still here I can email you a pic, she is 7 weeks and going to be a fluff ball
It's my lttle paradise :)
Paula it was getting dusk and my eyes aren't as keen as they were a few years ago. But when we take the cover off the pool tomorrow (yes a lttle late) I will be taking some pics with my 3 foot lens :) as my best friend says to me ... you're such dork lol
The sound of the woods are beautiful!
I know you don't miss the City!
Well, I am going to say
Good Night to all of you
OK IT IS NOW MIDNIGHT & THAT
MEANS THAT THE SATURDAY THREAD IS
TO BE USED Robyn, Paula if you sign off last (don't know how you're going to know that & I guess I could be last right now so...)
USE NEW SATURDAY THREAD
Okie dokie, Jo, I will see you over there in the morning!
Nite all!!
I am up in the middle of the night and this cam cannot be accessed...
The BW Osprey cam is barely working and Lisa has posted some dire sounding information. But she will be at the Reserve today getting more views of what might be going on.
Have a happy weekend,
USE THE SATURDAY THREAD IN THE MORNING.
Jim
