HELLO, PAULA, how was the party, you had a beautiful day:).
Party was great...didn't see the Blue Angels, guess they stayed pretty much over the base...but they saw them practicing this morning.
Little bit of rain here right now
Hi, you two. Hope you enjoyed your cook-0ut Paula. I miss the Capt. being gone because I love Grilled food and don't know how to do it.LOL I'd like him to bring some fish home like Belle & Lib bring to their youngsters. Ummmm!
I love cookouts too, Wanda. Love to cook on the grill myself.
I can at least see 2 eaglets on the cam
omg...who poured the MIRACLE GROW on the HERONETTES????
My son and I are trading music files :)
aww that's nice, Paula
Hi Gang, Hope this works--new pic!
Big Blue Birds flew over my head. They were so fast, only got 2 pics.
As I digress a bit from nature...if any of you are subject to TV car racing ALL THE TIME,Dale Jarrett is in his last race & they had him "drive the truck"!!One UPS lap before the All Star race at 9PM.
Forgot to Thank You, Steve, for new thread. You poor thing---have to work on weekends too!
Been watching different cams today & last one was the little, hyper, kiwi! He had been eating some of his mulch and wasn't correct weight, so they removed it for awhile & he's eating his reg. meals & gaining. If you ever feel listless, just watch him for a minute to get perky!! I'll be up 'til wee hours! :>)
I love that kiwi....awww missed DJ and the BIG BROWN TRUCK:(
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
I love your up up & away pic, NN.
They are spectacular in flight!
Question: I guess not everyone is a Momster and received the email about our upcoming Nest visit! Guess I had best post on here - I totally wasn't thinking.
Glad to see you are home safe & sound from CT - Hope you were on a family venture!
Little rain here in the valley - gets real windy then really still. Not sure what the wee hrs of the am will bring.
Going to say Good Night to
everyone - Sandman has been here!
KIWI CAM
Mark your calendar & Plan for a Sycamore Nest Visit!
It's that time of the Eagle Season 2008 to plan our visit to the nest at NCTC, Shepherdstown,WV
Our 3 eaglets are getting very near their fledging time! The oldest was 9 weeks old yesterday. Eleven to thirteen weeks is the normal time for their first flight to occur!
With that in mind
Saturday JUNE 7th
NCTC will be open that weekend due to classes being held on campus. Closer to that date I will contact them with the list of names of those planning to enter the gates. I will also be able to find out if the cafeteria or the gift shop is going to be open.
A call to Rumsey Tavern located at the Clarion Hotel in Shepherdstown for dinner accomodations on Saturday around 5:00 pm will be made. This is where all our previous gatherings have been held and everyone seems to be very pleased with their menu.
I need 2 lists:
#1) Access to NCTC
#2) Dinner reservations at Rumsey.
Please email me personally with your intentions of attending and any questions you may have.
jo_lennox@hotmail.com
If you are not able to attend on this date, please remember that any day you would want to come
to the nest that I and many other locals would join you!!!
Two raccoons at the Okie cam. Foggy over the water on the Finland Cam.
Just got home from seeing George Jones in concert. Me, Thelma and Beverly went and it was really good. He did really well to be 73 years old!
I guess everybody has gone to bed now. Good night and sweet eagle dreams, all my friends of fine feathers and fur!!
Eagle-eye Sharon-- Did ol' George show up??? LOL!!!! Have a good night!
Yeah, No Show Jones really did show! They made jokes about it before he came out.
Found out tonight that Darryl Worley will be here on the weekend of July 4. Like him, sings good and pretty too!
Sounds like a nice night, Sharon. Finally done trading music with the kid...gonna hit the hay...
See ya tomorrow!
I think George Jones is cool.
Was watching Scottish Osprey & she is VERY wiggly.Some little bobble is gonna pop out soon!
Saw the Finn site too & so foggy we won't be abee to see the ferry!
Good night to all those leaving--that kiwi got me UP! :>)
Hi Nature! Yeah, the fog caused me to miss the ferry. I thought one of the Finnish osprey was a little wiggly and looking down. ???
Hi Lolly---you can see the screen!! Yes, I think that is the osprey they say is named Isla in Scotland that has laid 50 eggs! There's a 2nd Finland nest -real big-and not on the water. I wish I could sit here til she gets up, but want to catch a little TV.
Yes, I love that nest that is so huge. I was telling Jack about that nest. The BWO osprey put a few twigs on that man built stand and then look at that Finland nest. Unbelievable!
I am calling it a night. My eyes are tired. Yes, I am seeing better. My eye is not dialated so much now and that helps.
Nite! Sweet dreams!
Good Night All.
PS:: Isla? in Scotland just moved a big eggshell away from her face!!!
Now I know I'll be awake looking for that osprey bobble!
GOOD NIGHT, EVERYONE...
Another great day Sunday morning.
C(°ï®¡°)D
Jim
Woke up & saw Scotland baby osprey #50 and 4th stork egg hatched & Mom was feeding chicks and removing eggshell!
It must be Easter!
Good night again---
Loretta, I just watched Wonder Woman (Isla) feed her one chick. He was lying on his back (couldn't get turned over) and Mom was trying to feed him in that position.....little one only wanted one thing and that was to get back up on his feet. Mom moved into the nest and covered him (feet first) and the two remaining eggs. Isla is getting a little too old to be raising another family. She must be 90 in bird years. LOL
Our youngsters are just laying around like they had a late night party...not even asking for breakfast.
Lib in the nest with a fish.
Sounds like the game of 'clue" LOL
Another rainy morning here in PA for me, hope it is sunny and warm wherever you all are. I haven't been reading the blog lately but hope everyone is well. Our babies are big kids now aren't they?
Last week I had a stellar birding day at Crane Creek state park located in NW Ohio near Toledo. I got several new birds to add to my list. All in all I saw 53 varieties, many of them warblers. This state park is on the shores of Lake Erie and is a stopping place for migrating northern birds. It was a very long day for 3 old ladies and next year we will make it an overnighter.
Fish is all gone and so is Lib

OSPREY DIARY: read the latest news from the nest!
18 May 2008: First chick has hatched!
Cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep. Apologies for our obvious egg-centricity but we have all become egg-stremely egg-cited; egg-static you could even say, for we have a very, very special announcement!
We are proud to announce that at 4.15 am we received our very first chick of the season… and not only the first chick this year for our pair… but our female’s fifty-first! Well done, old girl!
It is such a great thing to witness and we feel very privileged to have seen it.
Norma, Tori was released from the hospital yesterday, Robyn was taking her to the Eastern Shore for the day if she was up to it, they were hoping to go to BW
MORNIN' BLUEFIELD SHARON!!!---Thought maybe you slept in after your BIG NIGHT!!----Wondered if your 'little one' is home for the summer!!!---Hope he has a job!!
Actually, Normabyrd, my little one never left. He commuted all year and he is done now until August. He has been working at Bellacino's for 4 or 5 months already.
THANKS HELEN!---I checked on the 'MOTHER OF THE CENTURY' earlier---The OSPREY in Scotland!!----She looks good!!!---Maybe that's the secret to STAYING YOUNG!!!----ho!
Good Morning Lolly, Mits and Sharon ( :
Loon is off the 2 eggs she is in the water swimming around. The 2 "golden eggs" seem to do just fine. With the nest bounging up and down with the water. She is back on eggs again.
SHARON---You are truly blessed!!--I remember the summer job hunting for my kids!--
Mits thanks for the update on Tori. Had tried several times and her email kept coming back. Emailed Jo and found out hers was coming back also. So glad she is out of hospital.
