HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO CHRISSY AND HUBBY! MAY YOU HAVE MANY MORE AND THE BEST YET TO COME!
Just got home from visiting GeeGee. She is still doing great...drove to church this morning. I watched her going down the steps, and she did it with an ease that I haven't seen in a long time.
I was thrilled to hear that the Bluefield Girls saw Lib & Belle. We all love Lib and Belle with all our hearts, but I don't think we can come close to the Love Affair that those two sisters have for
them. YES, SISSY, WE KNOW THAT YOU WANT TO BE A PANDA WHEN YOU GROW UP, but I know how you must have felt when that Royal Couple showed up...they were ther JUST FOR YOU!
Thank you Thelma for keeping in touch with us. You will be blessed for keeping an eye on the HOME FRONT! I feel that Lib & Belle knew that EAGLE EYE SHARON was there and it was time to make an apperance. Have a safe trip home and enjoy the beauty of those beautiful WV Hills.
Hi Vicky nice to see you drop in ( :
Chrissy, did Frank take you out for dinner? What did you have? Hope you beat the indigestion to the punch!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO CHRISSY AND FRANK. (Frank must be a BLOKE, or she wouldn't have stayed with him for all these years)!
Nope Lynn pet,,
I cooked as Frank was going to work at 7pm,,, but I think we are going out for a meal on Wednesday,, his day off,,,
I made::::::
Steak and kidney pie
Mashed potatoes
Roast Potatoes
Cauliflower
French Beans
Gravey
PUDDING::::::
Strawberries dipped in dark chocolate
Brandy Cream
Nothing to exciting,, but very nice never the less,,
Thanks for the aniversary wishs Wanda pet,,,
Right all I'm going to go as it's almost 9pm here and my Forensic Detective program is starting at 9pm,,,

I'll try and be better with my time difference from now on,,,

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY CHRISSY AND FRANK!
Mary Marg and I just got home. Have not read anything. Just wanted to say it was a fabulous weekend.
Okay, my visit this morning . . .
We went to NCTC this morning. We parked at the road and walked up to the tree. It was me, Beverly and Mattie. We did get to see the remnants of poop shoots below the tree. We stayed there for a few minutes and Mattie needed to go potty. So, went walked back down the gravel road to the asphalt, walked maybe 100 feet and here they came!! Liberty and Belle both came in today, talking to each other on the way. Liberty went to the limb that goes across over the nest. Belle landed in the nest. She took off again and was gone for a while and then came back with a stick. She then flew to an upper limb and sat there a minute, then took off again. They went off to the left of the tree. We stepped on the other side of the barn, looked up in the sky and there they were, soaring. It was absolutely such a spiritual time. Sis took quite a few pics and will post them when she gets home. It was just so awesome.
I am very thankful you were able to see them - like I said to you earlier that made your visit complete
There are so many small things that went on and may fail to be mentioned because the entire day was just so full of "Making Memories"
At the 3:00 Critter Show before Steve introduced the new director of NCTC to the filled auditorium - he graciously introduced all of us Eaglet Momsters in the audience and we stood PROUD!
Chrissy I know you must be off watching your TV show but I want
you to know that I wish a
Happy Anniversary to
Chrissy & Frank
OMG!! I am home and boy am I glad!! I reckon Sharon and Thelma already told you about our miracle this morning. It was so awesome you guys. I started shaking so bad I could hardly take a picture!!
Happy Anniversary Chrissy and Frank. Tom and I had our 31st last July and it just blows my mind. Certainly don't feel old enough to be married that long!! Congrats on your day!! We were talking this weekend how great it would be for you and Frank to be able to come and see the nest! Maybe some day?
I am so glad you did stop shaking a little and took a lot of pictures.
It was so good having you, Sharon and Mattie with us - You're getting to be regulars!!!
We hope to stay regulars Mema Jo!! Friends like this are hard to find, gotta keep em when you get em!!
I'm a little late getting back in here but to Sissy's remark
AMEN
SISSY Those pictures are
beautiful - I love Eagle Moon!!!
Wasn't that just the coolest thing. I am no photographer but I love it when I catch something like that!!
Will you download them also to
Sissy's Pics ?
I am watching the cam..... Should be
time for an evening visit soon.
Good evening all my fine eagle friends.
It's time for an evening visit.
Update on Mason
Light a candle for Mason
Good Evening T-Bird
Sissy ty the pictures are just great. I like them all but my favorite also is the Eagle Moon. What a great capture lady. ( :
I posted those other pics, Jo.
BORIS is starting his web....
You know I mean Spidey.......
yes, indeed there has been a visit to the nest this evening, just heard from Deb, Lolly and Jack were with her, they did see eagles while on the train, they rode in the open car.
Going to get my evening cup of coffee
I can see our nest as I am doing that
But holler anyway......
great pics bev
Boris is a good name for him Mema Jo!!
Now is time to pay the piper. Having to work this evening. I am pooped!!
I wish someone would clean up where that panda is laying. That is bugging the "poop" out of me.
HA!! HA!! Get it?
Wonder if Sharon told Randy to relocate Boris when she talked to him?
Sure was hoping for a visit before Spidey/Boris stole the scene.
Looks like someone at the zoo heard me!! Good deal.
Nope, didn't clean it up. POOP!!
Just looked at Little Luney - Is
LunLun sleeping outside of the bed?
He is really getting big - you can tell even though I haven't looked at
him for almost 2 days.....
I'd say NO VISIT TONIGHT! BUT
I just know they are up above the nest on their branch!
Good evening Eagle Dudes and Dudettes! I took a panda nap and am almost ready to go to sleep. Still not smoking! I am so grateful for all the support I have on that!
Jo I don't know what time but I thought after the train ride. Deb and Paula were going back down to the nest. I think????
Great Sharon!!!!!!!!!!! Rub that patch !!!! There's one more day added in there now. ( :
Sissy loved the picture of the eagle and the moon. Glad you and Mattie got home safe. I am tired it is a happy tiredness think I will get a bath and go watch some TV.
HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!!!!
SISSY, great shots of the nest this a.m.:), Sorry you could not come have breakfast with us this a.m. at Betty's, great place:)
Hey There - this is one of your favorite Dudetts.. Great job on the No Smoking - When it is something you just gotta do - you CAN DO IT!
Dana - Thought Paula did say she was
staying at that nest until she saw
them. She had said she would be in here this evening! Anxious to hear - so wish that all the out of staters
could see them before going home.
SHARON, if you were able to get through this weekend without smoking, you've got what it takes to quit FOREVER.
Now, you do realize you all were the only ones who got to see our eagles this weekend...does that tell you something? YOU HAVE BEEN TRULY BLESSED! You have had 3 miracles this weekend. We are all so happy for you.
Glad everyone is arriving home safely. Wonder if we'll hear from the train riders tonight? Sure they will be very tired!
Great pics, Sissy!
Sharon, keep up the good work....48hrs. plus!! You go girl!
Gald to hear from you Helen
I take it the SKINS won....
Hedgie you would think T-Bird would be on here hollering!
I did report on tonight's visit of nest at 6:26p.m. and my phone call from Deb, Lolly and Jack:)..look up!
Lynn, that game ending had me on the edge of my seat.
WOW ! I really did miss your comment and now I know!
Thanks!
So glad our visitors saw eagles on the train ride. Don't think there were any last year. Did anyone see Norma?
they did not mention her.
Good evening everyone-yes Mema Jo I was hollering. Some things I just can't say on the blog. :) Yes we got an ugly win, thank goodness!
The Raiders just beat the Jets on a record setting 56 yd. field goal in overtime. Wow
Hi Everybody!
Finally got pics on Blog--about 4 sets w/ 1 video.
Jim & Red - You Are There!!!
Caan't wait to see other pics, gotta eat.
Happy Anniversary, Chrissy & Frank!
I am so excited about my Fox photo and Eagle Frame with the "cookie kissers" within it. I have looked at them both a hundred times. I would like to tell you all about it, but you already know! LOL What a wonderful surprise that was. When Bob brought his photos in, I couldn't wait to see if he remembered the foxy one...was I ever disappointed when it wasn't there. Had the frame at home waiting to hold that precious picture and it JUST WASN'T THERE! I thought I'd have to wait another year to find a mate for my other photo. I just kept thinking, "Didn't Bob know how much I loved that photo?" I told him three different times.
You will never know how happy I was to see that photo appear! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!
glad none of us spilled the beans on that one, Wanda, we were so looking forward to when you got your well deserved gifts for all you and Gene do to make our time so special:)
thanks, for the pics of the Talon birds, Loretta, loved their show, then we went for some smores and sat in the warm October sun:)

Today the cub is 50 days old, which means he is half-way to getting his name! He weighs 2,092 grams (2.09 kgs. or 4.6 pounds). The cub continues to improve his muscle control and movements. He is actually moving forward by scooting around on his belly using all four limbs. The past three nights I have seen him travel the width of the nest box; it takes about an hour and several nap breaks, but he eventually makes it. There are grip strips on the floor of the nest box that help him along by keeping his feet from slipping (we put these down to help Mei Lan when she was first scooting). Once he masters scooting, the next step is crawling. To crawl, he must get his legs underneath his body and move around with his belly off the ground -- after that, there is no stopping him!

Yesterday we got some much needed rain here in Atlanta. Mei Lan did not mind it and sat outside enjoying her bamboo, seemingly without noticing the wet weather. However, Yang Yang hates the rain and acts as if he is melting in the slightest drizzle; needless to say, he did not want to spend any time outside yesterday and complained until he was brought inside. He was still a bit grumpy about it last night as well!
Lun Lun also dislikes rainy days, but she and the cub were nestled in their cozy den and did not have to contend with the rain. It will be a few months yet before the cub ventures out of doors. They spent the day eating and resting as usual. The cub's latest weight is 2,003 grams (a little over 2 kgs. or 4.42 pounds); he gained 65 grams in 24 hours!

Nursing bouts have definitely increased in duration over the last week or so. Previously, nursing bouts lasted seven to 10 minutes. Currently, nursing bouts are lasting 17 to 20 minutes. Because they are lasting longer, the cub utilizes all four of Lun’s nipples to obtain the milk he needs for his growing belly. During the nursing bouts, the cub also spends about 10 minutes rooting about to find one of the four different nipples. When he can’t seem to find one he will vocalize, and Lun Lun will assist him by changing positions or adjusting him, so that he has to ability to find the correct location.
The cub’s weight yesterday was 1,938 grams.

LISA HAS SOME GREAT SHOTS OF EARLIER VISITS FROM THIS WEEK OF SOME IMMATURE EAGLES
Nest Update
10/18/08:
On Tuesday, we had a sighting of a young immature bald eagle.
And then Saturday morning, we saw an older immature bald eagle. Note this bird is getting closer to achieving a white head and tail.
Loretta, that is a wonderful picture of a picture. Red's photo in the cheesecake, I mean. He will be proud of Paula...she did an excellent job! RED, IT TASTED WONDERFUL (the citrus flavor just brought out the taste just right).
Annie, Bill and Sandy had a meal with Norma. Norma really enjoyed herself.
Last year they did see eagles on the train ride.
Another new thread, with a great picture! Come on over!
Loved that report on Luney...made me smile. You can tell she loves the little boy as much as we do.
Loretta, your pics are great, too!
