New thread.
Cam Update: I just got a call from the tech guys who were out at the tree. About 60 feet of the cable is damaged, thus the lack of signal. We are going to pull down the webcam signal and continue our preparations to go up the tree and work at the end of the month. More on this as they give me info.

BW osprey cam MT
BW eagle cam note-
Technical Note - Our cam technician will try to work on the cam on Friday. If we can fix it on the ground, we'll continue with the season. If not, we'll shut down the cam until November or December.
TH WE and SC are down. So is NE.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE Paula you make an excellent Suzanne:):). Jill I thought you were talking about Jo's house in Middleton...I will have to check it out one day when I have time.
Thanks, Mits, but I am far from a Suz!
VA juvie is gone, time to move the cam.
Can see Kent better, waiting for breakfast.
Aha, they found another juvie in VA
Fin chicks are snoozing
2 Osprey at BW
Fins are eating
Good EAGLE morning PAULA and MITS! Thanks for the rundown on all the nests Paula. Looks like a few are among the missing.
CONGRATULATIONS PAULA on being the first on today. You were the early bird. I could hear my air conditioner going, and I was sooo comfortable in bed, I hated to get up and get cool. Finally had to get up to iron a shirt for my husband. He sings in a church choir and they have a funeral this morning.
Going to check out the BB/Swallow nest and see how far they have gotten on the nest. BB
GOOD MORNIN' EAGLE BUDDDIES!!!---PAULA--MITS & CANDY!!----CONGRATS!!! PAULA----You are #1 today!!!!!----I checked the FIN FAMILY earlier---They are a "handsome crew"----The "Little Prince" looked like he was in a SAUNA this a.m.----He is a LOVE BUG!!!---It's a bit WARMER today here in the WV MOUNTAINS---78° already----HOPE YOU CA FOLKS--ANNE-MARIE & JIM---don't "burn up" today!!----STAY COOL EVERYONE!!
7/4/07 UPDATE---KESTREL BOX:--Some may have noticed there were 4 chicks...Now 3.....What happened is not uncommon among birds of prey...1 CHICK was somewhat behind the others, etc....& not sufficiently getting its share of food.----It weakened & was consumed by its siblings. NATURE CAN SEEM CRUEL TO US, BUT IT IS EFFICIENT.----(have learned to accept this)---
Good Morning Everyone!
Happy to see you! I was surfing some cams: got to see Mrs Swallow in the nest on the BBCam. Tai has a treat! ButaButa has not yet made an appearancel. OspreyCam of D.Puleston has 2 beautiful chicks!I guess I can be #13 again. lol
Nope! Norma beat me out for #13
Pugent Sound, EGGBERT, is regal looking as the sun streams into the nest
Mei is sure taking her time waking up. She is stretching and scratching and just sprawling out and enjoying life. Now she is back to snoozing. Tai is up already and eating breakfast.
Good morning JO AND NORMA! Welcome!
Norma, I stopped watching the kestrals after they ate the fourth bird. I can still see his head lift there after they finished him off. Now I just check in from time to time to see who is left. Nature has it's ways, I guess.
PA FALCOM CAM---will stay up until 7/16/07---Juvies come in & out early in a.m. & late at nite!---Might be one there now in nest box---could be just a shadow!!!
JO, tell me they didn't name the Puget Sound bird Eggbert. I hope you just made it up.
MORNIN' JO!---You can be 13 if you wish--ho!----Everyone wants tomorrow's date---7/7/07---GOOD LUCK DAY!!!!----LUCKY DAY for MARRIAGE----ANY TAKERS---PAULA????-----kiddin'---DON'T YELL!!!
Kent cam has one early bird up at the crack of dawn and the other looks like me this morning; just wanting to lay around as long as I could. Once their breakfast gets there, I bet they are both up and alert.
CANDY---I made such a "FUSS" about the OWLETS eating about 3 of theirs!!----The words about the KESTRELS are taken from their explanation!!!!----Survial of the Fitest!!
RICHMOND HIGH-RISE has cleaned their window!!----4 "FUZZY" CHICKS----MOMMA is gone!!!!------NORFOLK NEST has 1 "Rebel" loafing----I ENJOY watching them!!----Bet it is warm there----81° here now!!
Norma - My best friend is getting married tomorrow....I am matron of honor!
Haven't been able to see the "ATLANA BEAUTY"----Bet she is inside ASLEEP!!!!-----TAI is ROAMING & ROAMING----maybe he knows something!!!----3 days till his BIRTHDAY!!!!---
HEY--HEY PAULA!!---That's getting pretty close!!---ho!---ho!---Think there are lots of weddings tomorrow!!----Remember to SMILE!!
Eggbert it is! Some of the Kent Forum folks came up with that. I think it is appropriate due to him having his Eggmate for so long to keep him company. I can still see him setting on it!
I am about to go over to the Carriage House (Bakery) and pick up the
07-07-07 decorated cake for the rehearsal dinner this evening!
Lots of weddings tomorrow - nation wide!
ZOO OFFICIALS HAVE CONFIRMED THAT MEI XIANG IS NOT PREGNANT She is experiencing a false pregnancy this time.
PAULA you have been a busy lady the last few weeks. AND nest weekend is the Shepherdstown visit. Hope you have a nice day tomorrow; weather wize and fun wise. Lucky Duck!
Candy..."it is what it is". :):):)
Oh RATS, Mits! I was soooo hoping for a new little one. I guess she just wanted a little extra attention.
You are right MITS>
GOOD MORNING NORMA, PAULA,CANDY,MITS AND JO.
JO--
Before you get away; I just wanted to wish you "A Beautiful Wedding Day" for your Grandson & family. Is the ceremony going to be inside or out? I don't guess we have to ask you to take MANY photos and please share them with us!
CU later!
LOl at eggbert - sorry to hear about Mei.
GOOD MORNING WANDA! It is funny that you should get on now, as I just went out and got my cup of coffee. :) I also had to put on some eggs to boil, as my husband and I are going to a micnic as a going away gathering for a young man who in going into the Marine Reserves. I am going to try and do deviled eggs. Knowing my luck, I'll probably have trouble getting the shells off.
CANDY--
Try putting the eggs in cold water and refrigerate them for awhile, if you have time. Then crack them and roll them around and around on the counter--shell should peel right off. If you just pulled the eggs out from under the hen, it won't work! LOVE DEVILED EGGS!
You can always revert to Egg Salad if you have to! lol
P.S.--
Had my COFFEE this morning at 5:30--No on up to share it with.
GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE...
It's warming up already this beautiful morning, and it's supposed to get up to 80 in So Cal...not bad except the humidity is kind of high.
Hope you are having a good day.
Jim
HOW TO BOIL EGGS!!---THIS NEVER FAILS!!!!!
Put your eggs in COLD WATER & bring to a GOOD BOIL----COVER & take off stove & let them set for 20--25 min.----Pour off water & IMMEDIATELY STICK THEM IN COLD WATER----I put them in the FRIDGE when I take them out of the water to cool them!!!---WILL PEEL RIGHT OFF!!!!
HI JIM----How do you get your boiled eggs to peel out of the shell???
NORMA Thanks for the info. I'll give it a try.
GOOD MORNING JIM! I hope it doesn't get too hot out there for you today. Think cool thoughts and stay air conditioned. :)
I was looking at IWS's blog and some updates...finally got the S Cruz cam to open, but nobody is home now.
Here's a clip of Limuw on the 1st of July...you might want to take a look at the IWS UPDATES yourselves.
Limuw post fledge
Jim
HI WANDA!----WELL we both have evidently made lots of deviled eggs----ho!----I like plain boiled eggs too!!
Yes NORMA, I have made lots of boiled eggs. I love them any way they can be fixed! I LOVE Eggs Benedict and Eggs in Spinach salad.
Eggs do not love me. (Cholesterol)
WANDA I have that fixed. I just eat the whites when I can. :)
Hi everyone! Remember me??
Ms Swallow is really going to toown on her new nest today.
JIM Thanks for the heads up on the SC cam. I had been trying to get in and trying to get in. Now I have it.
Welcome aboard VICKY! Not too many people on this morning; I thing most are watching different cams and come back here from time to time to chat.
Candy
HEY EAGLE BUDDIES----VICKY is the person I referred to as GLO'S friend---FROM COMMODE CITY---ho!--VICKY WILL HAVE TO EXPLAIN!!!---She came to the nest last year--Lives in IL!----
VICKY---Do you think you might get to come???----What about GLO??---It will be so much FUN!!!---Get meet most everyone!!!
OMG MITS!!---I have been watching #63 take off & land, etc. & I just read your message!! ----I AM SO SORRY about MEI---I was hopping she would deliver soon!!----POOR MEI----
Nice to meet you, VICKY! I just really got on the blog right before school got out, but have watched our eagles all last year without blogging. There are some great people on here.
Candy
VICKY---Have you been following TAI'S MAMA--MEI?---She was artificially inseminated----Now they have discovered she had a false pregnancy---
Sure planning as of this moment to be at the "gathering" on the 14th! I'll have my 2 young granddaughters with me if I do!
Yes Norma, I especially want to see you and give you another hug and Mema Jo!
MTBR
MITS-If you decide to take a drive up there I can get you better directions. It's fairly easy to find if you have the right information. Kind of stuck back in nowhere tho.
It's a hopping around here this afternoon! Steve has update on the damaged cam cable
Hi Vicky - glad you will be making the trip! Getting ready to send out the LOOOOOOOOOONG list of those hoping to come!
Oh my, one of the Kent kids was branching just a while ago!
The Kent Kids' time has come!
Thanks, Jill, My best friend lives off of Rt 54 at Keenwick on the Bay, I'm up around that area alot when I have the chance...Floaters is my all time favorite store. and I go to some corn fields way back ther to get corn.
Email sent thru Momsters site with list of names coming on July 14th. I will send out further information -
Sandra's address and/or directions
Some phone contact number and also
the lunch plans.
The list is just to confirm you find you name - I only need to know if I forgot anyone. Thelma, FWS already notified me that Security has been notified of our coming thru those gates on the 14th!
"60 feet of cable damaged" ... sounds like permanent for this season.
I was reading over at the IWS site, and apparently the heavy overcast at the nest sites on Catalina is the culprit keeping the WE and TH cams dysfunctional ... no sol, no solar power.
They do have a few pictures of the nests and eaglets that Dr. Sharpe took recently...and some aerial shots of Catalina Island with nesting sites.
Well, I've got some chores and errands to do. I'll check back later.
Jim
And I bet security is shaking in their boots.....Must be dolphin homecoming today....tons are right outside the condo and the tour boats are right there with them...dolphins are putting on a nice show:).
CAN ANYONE FIND EGGBERT?
I do not see him in the nest.
It sure looks like EGGBERT flew the coop. He wasn't there when I looked awhile ago, but I didn't know if he had already fledged or not. There he is. or there was just feathers and body in front of the camera for a minute there. He's there; right by the middle.
I can hear Limuw screeching away on his cam, but don't see him. Just the buzzing of bees or flies.
I was busy blogging & now Eggbert has returned and I didn't see from where?
Anyone see him come back to the nest?
Thanks, Candy. I know he is too large to hide behind the tree trunk.
I think we can chalk it up to branching or fledging!
Kent Eagle has been branching a lot!!
Time for me to start to gather things together to leave in an hour.
I did call Sandra but she was out with daughter-in-law. I'll touch base with her later. Did get to speak with Tom and told him good luck next week and that we would see him soon walking the streets of Shepherdstown -he agreed that in about 4 months that will be happening!
I will get back on late this evening!
Jo, all I saw was an empty nest and then when you said he was gone, I looked and saw more empty nest and then he came in from behind or along side the camera as there was a flurry of brown feathers in front of the cam and there he was.
Glad to hear that things are still ok for Tom. Our prayers will be with him to get thru this and on his feet again.
First I have seen of the cam update info from Steve. Thanks Steve, and good luck to the guys!
Kent eaglets looking handsome!!
Pretty wingercises at Kent
PAULA Where is the wedding tomorrow? Have a good time....GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
I don't Know, Mits. I am going to one in Fairfield, but it's not Jo's Grandson.
Jo, Hope everything goes well tomorrow!
Have a great evening, my friends, and we'll talk again tomorrow...
Jim
Rehearsal dinner was great! Paula, Amber was there & we talked. Had red velvet cake! Yummie! The buffet was extremely good - it was at the Hagerstown Venice Restaurant - service was really good. Everyone is really ready for tomorrow!
Glad to hear it Jo. I just heard they redid the bar/dance area, but haven't been there yet. We used to have a bunch of compamy dinners and stuff there, food was always good.
