The Hummingbird chicks are growing like crazy .. filling the nest this A.M.
There are signs of O. nest building at the Finnish nest by the sea .. don't know if there's actually time to start now though. Don't know if it's the original pair or an intruder pair either.
Advanced preening going on at Norfolk. They look like they'll be airborn before too long.

Yes they are Jim Yes they are Jim LOL the hummingbirds
possible the original male osprey was injured or killed during territorial fight at Finland, Mits had posted that info a little while back have't seen any pairs there just a single once in awhile
From Delaware Falcon cam: The male and female have been seen in courtship ritual, and making scrapes for eggs! Let's hope that it's not too late for the new family to try for another brood... (that was posted today) Delaware Peregrine Falcon
Hope it is a good day for every single one and all their families on here today
Hahaha!!! Palmer is eat on her own, but then looks at parent with that cute look and the tipping of the head hoping parent will finish the job. Tooo Funny!!
Hey Jim -- I just looked at the Wilmington Peregrine site and what a season they're having at that nest. Goodness. Do you think they will lay a clutch now??? I think it's a new female and a new male. Very interesting.
good news from the Smithsonian national zoo in DC.............
Lion Gives Birth to a Cub
For the first time in more than 20 years, tiny lion paws are making a mark at the National Zoo. Early on the morning of May 18, six-year-old lion Nababiep gave birth to one cub, adding another member to the lion pride the Zoo has carefully worked to build over the past year.
Susan the original male from Delaware nest disappeared in late April, the four beautiful reddish auburn eggs failed to hatch and were removed May 14 by USFWS So, probably same female, and new male...there are some links on that cam site but I haven't read too much yet
Ragdoll sure the nest noise was quiet but I suspect YOU were chirping watching glad you are feeling better these days
Magpie -- I have not previously watched that Delaware nest but I sure will now. Sounds like musical chairs in the nest with all the changing up of players. Ahhhhhhh, the drama.....
Good very late afternoon. Thank you, Steve for the thread and Wanda for the call over.
So happy to have the live cam back -- thank you to whomwever.
Congragulations to Nababiep. Wish you and the baby good health and long lives. Thank you, Mits.
Lynn and Mema Jo, I hope you both had a lovely day with friend and daughters, respectively.
As for tutoring Palmer, would love to but have a thing about heights -- nothing more than 3 inches.
Hi Jim, Margy, and Diann.
Lynne, so glad you have patience and cleaning supplies.
Palmer very vocal a while ago when eating. Big wingersizing. Parent response: Dang, did I help create that youngster?
Finally, Shark is not yet my new best friend. Didn't like the streaking. Spent 6 1/2 hours today (very large kitchen floor) scrubbing by hand. Need serious pain relief and can only imagine what I will feel like in the morning. Hopefully, this serious cleaning will be what is needed to use the steam mop. MTBR.
YAY! The ONE computer here is available! No internet access in each room--boo! :o[
We had a wonderful drive up here--NO traffic! Have seen OODLES of birds! Have missed talking to you all. Don't know how long I have here to talk, so will make it short. Oh, Lord! 61 steps to our room, and NO elevators! Having a great time, though. Gotta run, but will be back soon. Prayers for everyone being said. Wish I could take the time to catch up on the blog! Love you guys! :o]
JUDIE!!! I forgot to mention yesterday that we saw a SHEETZ tractor trailer on the way home from Wild and Wonderful WV!! My camera was in my purse, in it's case and I just couldn't get it out in time....but I was thinking about you!
Hello! Such sad news about the Shark - maybe it was the floor cleaner making the streaks. Hate about your getting down on your knees! Sounds like a very large floor! I would call the Merry Maids, Judie.
There was for the first time a beautiful RTH visiting in the tree by the deck. Hope he wasn't eying up the cardinals and blue jays or maybe it was the squirrels! He didn't stay long after seeing Scar and Marvin sitting there.
I have been looking and looking - trying to see the new lion cub and I just did! He is small and likes to hide or snuggle up by his mom's neck.
Palmer earlier was winging it big time. Also hopping all across the nest. It won't be long until she gets some air beneath those wings!
Oh, I am so out of touch...don't know what Tues. shows have had FINALES or are near it. Just have to watch and find out.
Spent the afternoon in the ER again with GG. Went to her house and she was in bed all curled up like a snail in a shell. She said she couldn't breath and thought she was having a heart attack. I gave her a nerve pill...was pretty sure it was an anxiety attack, but she was shaking so badly (like a spasm) I was afraid to take a chance on diagnosing the problem myself. She was given a myriad of tests, but nothing was found. She was monitored all afternoon, just in case. She told the nurses, at one point, that she was going to WALK home if they didn't give her something to eat. You could hear laughter all over the ER:) Took her home about 5ish and she ate well. She said she is NEVER going to the hospital again:)! Pretty sure it was anxiety...Dr. agreed.
Jo...I went to the cafeteria and got her a cup of soup and some crackers and a fig newton for dessert. She was then, a happy camper:) Funny, isn't it, that she has no appetite at home?? Gotta love this woman♥
I just got to chat for a few minutes with Vicky on FB. She mentioned the memorial this Friday and I told her the Momsters/Dadsters would be with her. She said no body found to date and that the river was high & swift and it leads into Lake MI. This is really heartbreaking but Vicky has faith in the Lord and that will carry her through.
Mits, I really liked Ghost Whisper but it changed over the last 2 years for the worse but I still liked it. So you are NOT the only person who watched it!
Party on Saturday was great...went to Gettysburg on Sunday, then came home and grilled steaks for dinner...kids left about 9 on Sunday. Had to go to Mom's yesterday to put in a small basement window, didn't get home till 11:30. I have settlement on Mom's house tomorrow, and have to gather up some estate paperwork tonight to drop off tomorrow at the lawyers office.
Anyhow, hope everyone is well. Hope Iris and Chrissy hitched up...and so sorry for Vicky's family.
Evening Everyone. I haven't had a chance til now to get on either. Left work a couple hours early for dental appt. Have had a sensitive molar that got progressively worse. Hallelujah, Dr. found a hole on side where a filling fell out~~~no infection, no yanking, thank the Lord. He didn't even have to drill---new filling. The test will be to see if it's pain free for a week. If not, maybe root canal! I came home & crashed,just ate some soup & saw Idol. Saw on news the new tiny lion cub at NZ. Read on one of the European forums about the original Fin Ferry nest ospreys & they said a RUDE motorboat came close to nest. I think they had eggs~~scared them away.
BTW, not positive about the Fin eggs--need to read it again--was very late when I saw this stuff. HOWEVER, a deal was made w/cam owner of the Finney nest (Hailuoto)that Still captures of nest CAN be used in forums, blogs, etc. for informative purposes with the copyright c and V. Pulkinnen's name underneath (which I can't remember offhand unless on the site.)Pics cannot go to media or be published & videos are not allowed at all. Maybe this was on here before, 'cuz I don't get to read everything.
Dinner was good. Watched AI and DWTS. Have decided I like Lee and want him to win. Casey is from our area but I do not think he is going to win. Mommasox is good, but I like Lee and he is cute.
And, I have no strong feelings about DWTS. They are all good.
There! Have stated my feeling and I am sticking with it!!! lol
Really frustrated. (Easily done!) New car has Sync. My cell is supposed to sync with the program using Blue Tooth. I am supposed to just press a button, say phone, then "call______", and it is supposed to call. Not having any luck getting it work correctly. Called a wrong number this afternoon, then it wanted to call someone who is not on my contact list. lol I will succeed!
I brought up the moose cam and Pook had a May 16th remark.... Roxie the Moose
May 16th, 2010
This past winter an acquaintance in town told me about a friend of hers locally that had “adopted” a moose and named her Roxie. Then in another conversation I inferred that Roxie was online in some manner. So finally last night I remembered to google for her. Roxie has a page on Facebook. And for those of you who don’t or can’t use Facebook, there are videos uploaded on YouTube. Enjoy!
Happy Birthday to Jo's daughter Karen, Paula's brother and our Karen Momster!
Just put a cool story on my blog about a flock of OK birds rescued after a hail storm.
Speaking of which...Lolly, keep your eyes to the skies, Laurel too...looks like and extremely dangerous weather situation forming in your part of the world for tomorrow.
Heading back to bed. Been a rough night. So tired could barely keep my head up earlier. Was FREEZING and unable to get warm. Just woke up feeling better but drenched in sweat. Guess I spiked a fever and it broke?
Guess who has showed up finally at the feeder after singing in the woods for weeks? Mr Towhee, and, his lovely bride!!! I supposed his winter visit was satisfactory enough to bring the family with him now!
Palmer is pleasing perched in a precarious position and flexing and stretching AND TRYING TO GIVE ME HEART FAILURE.
Jo, because they are spending more time out of the den, they took the Andean bear cam off at NZ...there are 2 cams for the lion and her cub, one is darker, and the outer den is much more lighter, she goes back and forth between them
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE... Yes, Helen, we do forget that there are other animals at the zoo besides PANDAS and, you have to admit, baby lions are much cuter than baby pandas at birth!
Lynne...I saw a SHEETZ truck the night I went to get copies of the NCTC article in the newspaper. (only had 4 copies...so I didn't offer to Momsters for fear of leaving someone out...glad Margy and Lynn was able to carry out that task!) The truck was STUNNING! It glowed in the dark like a million fireflies. I posted a photo of it on JUST FOR FUN for Judie, but, the rest of you can look see too:)
Palmer is wingercising a LOT this morning. Bless her, she's flapping so hard and you can see her talons holding onto whatever nest material she can clutch. It won't be long now!
was watching that Osprey nest just now Mits in CT looks like some little annoying sticks or something swaying overtop the parent, looks windy there thanks for the nest news
Happy, happy birthday wishes to Karen, Jo's daughter and Paula's bro. Remember Karen, we're getting younger and prettier every year. At least, that's what I keep telling myself. hahahahaha
Good morning! I'm back---finally! Thank goodness, phone company did NOT put repair off til next Monday as they originally said. Carolyn called them late last night/early this AM and sweet-talked them saying her elderly mother was a cancer pateient and couldn't be alone without phone service. All true, right? I tried several times this morning---no dial tone; then it was there a little while ago!! Have alot of catching up to do---61 e-mails! Margy just called to check on me, so she said the most important thing was about GG....Wanda, sure hope she is okay today! So I'll get caught up....have a hair apptmt. at 1, so will be a little rushed for time, but hopefully, I'll be here off and on!!
Well, just lost my email and FB pages....Internet Explorer cannot display page........suppose I will lose this now, too......maybe they are still working on things....
Guy was just here to repair the damaged tree....some kind of paste application and a biodegradeable wrap. Sure hope it works to protect the tree from insects. He said he would be dropping in periodically to check on it. Guess that's pretty good customer service: it was a Schwan's driver who hit the tree.
Good Morning All! Looking for some sunshine out there but I guess all the warmth I need is right here on the blog. Lynn I was about to pick up the phone to call your cell BUT I am so glad Carolyn got the message through to them.... Waiting on seating my daughter also said she had an elderly handicapped mother! Well it got us all a table! Mits Thanks for letting me know about the cams. Did they announce the bear cubs names yet today? Thanks for all the b-day wishes for Jennifer - I'll be sure to let her know!
Magpie -- Chrissy is the one who got me on the Scotland ospreys and, yes, I'm sure she is watching. She's been a busy girl this week making English roast and Yorkshire pudding for Iris. Has anyone been in contact with Iris? I'm sure she'll have some great stories when she returns.
I just wanted to pop in real quickly to say for those holding Vicky and her family up in prayer on Fri at 1PM during the memorial service for her brother that South Bend is in Eastern Time zone so it is at 1 pm for most of you out by the sycamore tree :-).
Got a cake in the oven and some brownies to fix. Family is coming in on Sun night for 5 days. 2 hollow legged teen boys this time so I am a cookin :-) Notice my healthy choice of foods so far LOL.
Sorry for duplicate lion cub info! Thanks, Mits! Can't get the cam to open....this laptop may need some download for different media. Too bad they took down the Andean bear cam.
thanks Glo for the time notice again regarding the Memorial service Friday and prayer time for us...
Oh, Brownies....great way to start things out ! Happy to hear of the upcoming visit - Dex will get lots and lots of lovin' I bet ♥
straining my old eyeballs watching the Lion Mom....thought I saw, maybe a "bath" being given, all still now
headed out, best wishes for a good day today, prayers for all our many needs, especially for wellness and comfort caring about you all, all your activities and challenges
Amazing about the laser treatment. Hope it becomes more available for use. Certainly not an expensive option and it doesn't hurt or stress the bird! Thanks, Paula! So glad that you are closing today....that will take a lot off of you all, for sure.
Thanks Mits for the link. I still have a quizzy feeling when I see that nest... Our little Hugo! Looks as though the sides of the nest have been built up.. Wow - to have 5 should be a record & I hope they all make it. Adult really has to spread those wide wings to cover them all..
I, too, think Lee will win AI after last night. But he and Mammasox are both good in their own niches and will have good careers. DWTS: all good, but think I'm sticking with Evan!!
The increased dosage of prednisone to clear up lungs from this head cold does it. I just lie there in sleep mode but can't quite make it.
Did you watch all 3 TV shows last night?
Is the Good Wife going to support her hubby? Is Gibbs about to meet the daughter of the Drug Dealer he shot. I am to glad that Mr Callan just may find his father.... Wow! exciting night!
The moose video was funny....that baby looks too big to be nursing and it looked like he was trying to knock her over---suspect that there was no milk there anymore!!!
Palmer will be 12 weeks old when we visit. She could be out with an adult learning how to fish by that time. Crossing my fingers that we see the whole family!
Thank you Glo I will be with you all at that time on Fri. in prayer.
Mits thanks for the links. I got to see the lion cub on tv it was a quick and I mean quick shot.
I have been having a terrible time trying to get on the blog. "Go away blogger cop".
Must go to town to mail contributions to Locust Grove Volunteer Fire and Fire in Honor of James "Jim" Wilson. He and Ed were very close. Ed's grandfather "POP" and "Mom" raised him. So Jim and his sister Judi and his brother Oran "Chip" (Chip) is from Long Gate, California. Me and Jim always teased each other. Those were my family within Ed's family that we would go to the Lake of the Woods. Shirley knows where it is. Funeral is tomorrow and he wanted to be buried by POP up in Cresaptown. He could have been buried in Arlington. He retired from the US Navy as Chief Petty Officer after 20 years of service. He was like Ed Jim was on oxygen. Last time we went to Lake of Woods. We took Ed's machine with us so we could just plug it in and not worry about bottles. It was so funny Jim and Eds tubing kept getting messed up. Jim was a character he said, "Oh let's just hook them together and we'll suck off the same line making it 10 instead of the 5. lol Chip is a nurse and he said when they were playing Penny Annie Poker "Pop" and Ed's Dad's favorite game, Chip said, "The only 2 winning around here are thoes 2 on oxygen. Someone pull the plugs." tee hee

GOOD MORNING STEVE...yes, wet everything:)
Cold 54° here in Nestville and only going up to 56°. Warming up a little tomorrow.
Heading out to GG's. Have a good day♥
thanks for the call over, Wanda

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Good Morning,
EveryOne ! !
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Thanks for the new thread and apparently getting the live feed fixed ... working like a champ this morning, Steve.
We are having similar weather in So Cal ... cooler with an occasional shower ... today.
C(°ٿ°)D
Jim
I see the telltale sticks, proof of Palmer's attempts to lift off, are becoming strewn around the nest.
C(°ٿ°)D
Jim
The Hummingbird chicks are growing like crazy .. filling the nest this A.M.
There are signs of O. nest building at the Finnish nest by the sea .. don't know if there's actually time to start now though.
Don't know if it's the original pair or an intruder pair either.
Advanced preening going on at Norfolk. They look like they'll be airborn before too long.

Thanks for the link, Magpie. I hope there's still time for that Wilmington pair also.

Jim
FYI -- Both Loch Garten and Loch of the Lowes ospreys should have hatches by the end of the week. Ohhhhhhh, more babies.
OMG Palmer is right on the edge of the nest. I am going to have a heart attack or pee my pants. LOL
Parent is right the with her. Brought in food but not feeding Palmer. Trying to encourge Palmer to feed herself.
Hahaha!!! Palmer is eat on her own, but then looks at parent with that cute look and the tipping of the head hoping parent will finish the job. Tooo Funny!!
Parent flew up in the tree. Palmer is looking up as if to say "Hey, you didn't feed me yet." Lets see what she does now.
I am in the classroom so I have the volume off. I don't know if she was chirping through this event. I bet she was. LOL
Palmer has taken the challenge and feeding herself.
Opps, student needs me. I better pay attention to my job. BBL
Hey Jim -- I just looked at the Wilmington Peregrine site and what a season they're having at that nest. Goodness. Do you think they will lay a clutch now??? I think it's a new female and a new male. Very interesting.
Ragdoll, you are cracking me up. Palmer, who looks so grown up, really does still want to be fed, doesn't she. So funny.
good news from the Smithsonian national zoo in DC.............
Lion Gives Birth to a Cub
For the first time in more than 20 years, tiny lion paws are making a mark at the National Zoo. Early on the morning of May 18, six-year-old lion Nababiep gave birth to one cub, adding another member to the lion pride the Zoo has carefully worked to build over the past year.
WOW Mits -- great news from the Snithsonian!
hahaha
Make that the Smithsonian...
LION DEN CAMS
That's great Mits, Thanks for the new life news !
had a sneakin' feeling that lion cam link was coming ☺
see there is more stuff at the zoo, besides the Giant Pandas:)
Susan
the original male from Delaware nest disappeared in late April, the four beautiful reddish auburn eggs failed to hatch and were removed May 14 by USFWS
So, probably same female, and new male...there are some links on that cam site but I haven't read too much yet
Ragdoll sure the nest noise was quiet but I suspect YOU were chirping watching
glad you are feeling better these days
ttfn
Mits
sure appreciate ALL the wildlife and zoo news you share
but Pandas do rock pretty big ☺
will look forward to seeing those little lion paws
chow time with parent at the Royal Sycamore
ttfn xo
both parents were just there!
just barely caught a pic of it
this nest is pretty hard to quit watching
I'm baacckk! Good afternoon everyone. Had some 'puter problem and couldn't [post or watch Palmer. So, here goes again..
When I was watching Palmer was very vocal. Had to laugh when parent wasn't feeding her fast enough she squealed and bounced up and down. funny!!
I'm going to see if I can get back the live cam. It was freezing up on me.
bbl
Wingercises. Big wings!
Having to hit the pause/play button every minute or so. Anyone else having problems? Stopped at 3:11 ... d@#&
Diann
I don't now and usually do not have the live feed up
so I'm not any help on that question...
Magpie -- I have not previously watched that Delaware nest but I sure will now. Sounds like musical chairs in the nest with all the changing up of players. Ahhhhhhh, the drama.....
BBL
Good very late afternoon. Thank you, Steve for the thread and Wanda for the call over.

Oh, more adventures for the bear families.
Will check the RTH and Kestrel nests later.
Off to kitchen while I can still function.
Kestrel nest is full -- counted 3 maybe 4 babies before adult covered them.
RTH de-feathering pigeon with 2 babies waiting.

Margy, what flower is that?
Isn't that a cute eagle on the nest?
Hello everyone.
Palmer really enjoys the 12 position. The view must be wonderful.
I got to see some wing action a moment ago before I go make some dinner.
Hello! Such sad news about the Shark - maybe it was the floor cleaner making the streaks. Hate about your getting down on your knees! Sounds like a very large floor! I would call the Merry Maids, Judie.
There was for the first time a beautiful RTH visiting in the tree by the deck. Hope he wasn't eying up the cardinals and blue jays or maybe it was the squirrels! He didn't stay long after seeing Scar and Marvin sitting there.
I have been looking and looking - trying to see the new lion cub and I

Palmer earlier was winging it big time. Also hopping all across the nest. It won't be long until she gets some air beneath those wings!
Terrific Tues TV is about an hour.
Forgot to tell you that I had the cool weather dinner of Chili and Corn Bread.
Also forgot to tell you that I mailed Chrissy and Vicky cards today.
Tomorrow I have my daughter, a momster and 2 friends with birthdays - May has gotten to be filled with special days but the 19th takes the cake.
Loon is nesting - Larry's blog of an early morning intruder is fascinating to read.
Good evening everyone. It's the best night of tv so I'm off to catch Jeopardy and then park myself in front of the tv.
In case I don't get back I hope everyone has a pleasant evening and will wish all of you goodnight now.
Blessings for all needs/wants.
The two RTH are really getting large.
Sizewise looks like a big female and a smaller male.
Oh, I am so out of touch...don't know what Tues. shows have had FINALES or are near it. Just have to watch and find out.
Spent the afternoon in the ER again with GG. Went to her house and she was in bed all curled up like a snail in a shell. She said she couldn't breath and thought she was having a heart attack. I gave her a nerve pill...was pretty sure it was an anxiety attack, but she was shaking so badly (like a spasm) I was afraid to take a chance on diagnosing the problem myself. She was given a myriad of tests, but nothing was found. She was monitored all afternoon, just in case. She told the nurses, at one point, that she was going to WALK home if they didn't give her something to eat. You could hear laughter all over the ER:)
Took her home about 5ish and she ate well. She said she is NEVER going to the hospital again:)!
Pretty sure it was anxiety...Dr. agreed.
Wanda all our good ones are on
NCIS
NCIS:LA
The Good Wife
Hope you can relax and watch them.
Praying that GG never does need to go the hospital again but that if the need arises that she will forget what she said - pack her lunch - and go!
Forgot that my cup of after dinner coffee is waiting for me.....
BRB
I'm back!
Watching Hornby nest
Both adults now are there
Little Phoenix is sleeping.
They just did a wide view - breath taking
Jo...I went to the cafeteria and got her a cup of soup and some crackers and a fig newton for dessert. She was then, a happy camper:) Funny, isn't it, that she has no appetite at home?? Gotta love this woman♥
OK, got my tea and PJs on...gonna prop up and relax...you ALL do the same!
hope GG fells better, wanda....hey Jo, Cold Case has been cancelled .
I just got to chat for a few minutes with Vicky on FB. She mentioned the memorial this Friday and I told her the Momsters/Dadsters would be with her. She said no body found to date and that the river was high & swift and it leads into Lake MI.
This is really heartbreaking but Vicky has faith in the Lord and that will carry her through.
Mits - cancelled Forever?
I guess Judi decided not to write any more Cold Case scenarios!
Just Kidding!
OK Wanda - Likewise. Oh yes, Diann is joining us! Mits and Lynn should be here.
Man - we need one of those big big
screens and we could all sit together and watch out Terrific Tues TV
BBL to say good night
yes, Jo, forever:(
Ghost Whisperer too, hubby says he is not surprised, since I was the only person in the country who watched it
oh Wanda....poor GG. Hope she's OK.
Mits, I really liked Ghost Whisper but it changed over the last 2 years for the worse but I still liked it. So you are NOT the only person who watched it!
yeah I have not liked it either, when thay messed up the jim thing, but it was something to watch on a Friday night
Evening, all.
Finally, a chance to sit down and say "Hi"
Party on Saturday was great...went to Gettysburg on Sunday, then came home and grilled steaks for dinner...kids left about 9 on Sunday. Had to go to Mom's yesterday to put in a small basement window, didn't get home till 11:30. I have settlement on Mom's house tomorrow, and have to gather up some estate paperwork tonight to drop off tomorrow
at the lawyers office.
Anyhow, hope everyone is well. Hope Iris and Chrissy hitched up...and so sorry for Vicky's family.
Found the cool article below...
Laser treatment for eagle
Just got a call from Lynn
No phone and no DSL so she wants you all to know that is why she isn't on here.
Sounds like someone hit a pole, Jo.
You can add my bro to the list of May 19 birthdays!
Interesting about the laser treatment for the eagle.
Hi all! After appointment this afternoon I came home and worked in the yard. Surprise! Surprise!
Wanda, my heart goes out to you and GG.
Whoops! Jack is bringing in the chicken breasts from the grill.
BBL
Don't know it ya'll heard about Noah...they will put up tracking maps soon, she's heading north!
I wonder where our eagles wander to?
Enjoy it all, Lolly. Haven't had a chance to work out in the yard at all :(
WOW! all those b-days for the 19th
Paula Hedgesville (where gd lives)
always has phone service interrupted too frequently. Kristen bought her daughter a cell phone because of it.
I have Lynn's cell phone number if anyone needs her.
Back to TV
Glad to see you back on her Paula.
Evening Everyone. I haven't had a chance til now to get on either. Left work a couple hours early for dental appt. Have had a sensitive molar that got progressively worse. Hallelujah, Dr. found a hole on side where a filling fell out~~~no infection, no yanking, thank the Lord. He didn't even have to drill---new filling. The test will be to see if it's pain free for a week. If not, maybe root canal! I came home & crashed,just ate some soup & saw Idol.
Saw on news the new tiny lion cub at NZ.
Read on one of the European forums about the original Fin Ferry nest ospreys & they said a RUDE motorboat came close to nest. I think they had eggs~~scared them away.
BTW, not positive about the Fin eggs--need to read it again--was very late when I saw this stuff.
HOWEVER, a deal was made w/cam owner of the Finney nest (Hailuoto)that Still captures of nest CAN be used in forums, blogs, etc. for informative purposes with the copyright c and V. Pulkinnen's name underneath (which I can't remember offhand unless on the site.)Pics cannot go to media or be published & videos are not allowed at all.
Maybe this was on here before, 'cuz I don't get to read everything.
Stopping by to say good night. I have had a busy day.
Take care.
Dinner was good. Watched AI and DWTS. Have decided I like Lee and want him to win. Casey is from our area but I do not think he is going to win. Mommasox is good, but I like Lee and he is cute.
And, I have no strong feelings about DWTS. They are all good.
There! Have stated my feeling and I am sticking with it!!! lol
Really frustrated. (Easily done!) New car has Sync. My cell is supposed to sync with the program using Blue Tooth. I am supposed to just press a button, say phone, then "call______", and it is supposed to call. Not having any luck getting it work correctly. Called a wrong number this afternoon, then it wanted to call someone who is not on my contact list. lol I will succeed!
Heading to the shower and then to bed. Early appointment in the morning.
Nite all! Sweet dreams!
Loretta Mits posted link to Lion Cub cam. It is sorta dark in the den but after watching I finally saw the cub.
Tiny little thing.
Look at Mits' comment around 2:46 pm
LOLLY, I like all three AI kids, but I do believe LEE is the one I would like to see win, also:)
He rocked the house tonight!
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS FOR ALL
Well it is now the 19th -
Happy Birthday
Momster Karen
Karen may be known to most from her emails on the Eaglet Momsters. Just maybe we can get her on the blog !!
Also Birthday wishes to Paula's brother and to my daughter, Jennifer.
Good Night All
Prayers for everyone's wants/needs
((((hugs)))) ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Congratulations on the house closing, Paula
....reminder tomorrow 5/19
Andean Bear Cubs:The cubs' names will be announced on May 19, and the bears will make their public debut on May 22!
Mits when you come on would you please post the link to their cam. I can't find it anymore OR more so I think I found it but it Black Screen!
The medicine I had to take is keeping me wide awake!
Link to Roxie the Moose on YouTube
I brought up the moose cam and Pook had a May 16th remark....
Roxie the Moose
May 16th, 2010
This past winter an acquaintance in town told me about a friend of hers locally that had “adopted” a moose and named her Roxie. Then in another conversation I inferred that Roxie was online in some manner. So finally last night I remembered to google for her. Roxie has a page on Facebook. And for those of you who don’t or can’t use Facebook, there are videos uploaded on YouTube. Enjoy!
Happy Birthday to Jo's daughter Karen, Paula's brother and our Karen Momster!
Just put a cool story on my blog about a flock of OK birds rescued after a hail storm.
Speaking of which...Lolly, keep your eyes to the skies, Laurel too...looks like and extremely dangerous weather situation forming in your part of the world for tomorrow.
Heading back to bed. Been a rough night. So tired could barely keep my head up earlier. Was FREEZING and unable to get warm. Just woke up feeling better but drenched in sweat. Guess I spiked a fever and it broke?
Prayers for all!
stopping by to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Jo's daughter Jen, Karen and Paula's brother. Have a great day everyone
good morning all!
Guess who has showed up finally at the feeder after singing in the woods for weeks? Mr Towhee, and, his lovely bride!!! I supposed his winter visit was satisfactory enough to bring the family with him now!
Palmer is pleasing perched in a precarious position and flexing and stretching AND TRYING TO GIVE ME HEART FAILURE.
Gotta run. Hope you all have a GREAT morning!
Good WEDNESDAY morning everyone.
Happy Birthday Karen
Happy Birthday Jennifer and
Happy Birthday to Paula's brother.
Jo, because they are spending more time out of the den, they took the Andean bear cam off at NZ...there are 2 cams for the lion and her cub, one is darker, and the outer den is much more lighter, she goes back and forth between them
have a good one:)
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
Yes, Helen, we do forget that there are other animals at the zoo besides PANDAS and, you have to admit, baby lions are much cuter than baby pandas at birth!
Lynne...I saw a SHEETZ truck the night I went to get copies of the NCTC article in the newspaper. (only had 4 copies...so I didn't offer to Momsters for fear of leaving someone out...glad Margy and Lynn was able to carry out that task!) The truck was STUNNING! It glowed in the dark like a million fireflies. I posted a photo of it on JUST FOR FUN for Judie, but, the rest of you can look see too:)
SORRY! Sheetz truck is posted on my SMILES:)
The story behind Judie and SHEETZ is a long, funny one. Ask me and I will tell you, if you don't know!
Thank Lynne for the OK bird rescue story.
Good morning everyone.
Palmer you still need to behave yourself and stay home and finish learning a few things before you venture out into this big world.
Wonder if we will hear anything from across the pond today. I am surely hoping so.
Have a good day everyone.
Good Morning Eagle ♀'s and ♂'s
just enjoyed ten full minutes of live feed without any stopping
Happy Birthday to Karen, Jo's beautiful daughter Jennifer, and Paula's Brother....
hope it is a wonderful day !
Wanda
am sorry to hear GG and you had a tough day Tuesday...
I have prayers that all will get better soon and stay better xo
(( hugs ♥ ))
Palmer is wingercising a LOT this morning. Bless her, she's flapping so hard and you can see her talons holding onto whatever nest material she can clutch. It won't be long now!
Hoping that Judie is able to move around today after all that time on hands and knees...
starting some good weather prayers going for sunny ☼ Wedding weather for Saturday, Jo
best wishes for a good day, everyone
hoping that Hedgie can get back on-line again soon !
think I'll go take a peek at the lion cam
also, prayers for all those in the path of dangerous weather...including Lolly and all her family there
Texas looks a little unstable
update from Connecticut osprey nest.....
2 chicks have hatched on the 17th, they think the 3rd egg is not viable.
WV sUSAn
keeping my eye on the Loch of Lowe's and Loch Garten nests, thanks for the reminder of hatch dates coming up
was watching that Osprey nest just now Mits in CT
looks like some little annoying sticks or something swaying overtop the parent, looks windy there
thanks for the nest news
Magpie -- Loch of the Lowes could have a hatch today.... maybe. And then Loch Garten will be within a day or so of that hatch. It's all so exciting!
Good morning, I hope someone out there is having a warm sunny day today. It's rainy and cold here.
Popping in to say Hello and wishing everyone a wonderful day. I am at work (school). I will pop back in when the students allow.
BBL
Ragdoll
We have a BOLO (be on the lookout) here for some sun and warmth
All Points Bulletin for that matter
think it's coming Thursday
have a good day
thanks Susan, am sure that Chrissy is watching the Scottish nests too, they are some of her favorites
ttfn time to scram xo
Happy, happy birthday wishes to Karen, Jo's daughter and Paula's bro. Remember Karen, we're getting younger and prettier every year. At least, that's what I keep telling myself. hahahahaha
Good morning! I'm back---finally! Thank goodness, phone company did NOT put repair off til next Monday as they originally said. Carolyn called them late last night/early this AM and sweet-talked them saying her elderly mother was a cancer pateient and couldn't be alone without phone service. All true, right? I tried several times this morning---no dial tone; then it was there a little while ago!!
Have alot of catching up to do---61 e-mails! Margy just called to check on me, so she said the most important thing was about GG....Wanda, sure hope she is okay today! So I'll get caught up....have a hair apptmt. at 1, so will be a little rushed for time, but hopefully, I'll be here off and on!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KAREN KINSAUL in Florida!!
Well, just lost my email and FB pages....Internet Explorer cannot display page........suppose I will lose this now, too......maybe they are still working on things....
Ha! Amazing...it went through!
Guy was just here to repair the damaged tree....some kind of paste application and a biodegradeable wrap. Sure hope it works to protect the tree from insects. He said he would be dropping in periodically to check on it. Guess that's pretty good customer service: it was a Schwan's driver who hit the tree.
Good Morning All! Looking for some sunshine out there but I guess all the warmth I need is right here on the blog.
Lynn I was about to pick up the phone to call your cell BUT I am so glad Carolyn got the message through to them.... Waiting on seating my daughter also said she had an elderly handicapped mother! Well it got us all a table!
Mits Thanks for letting me know about the cams. Did they announce the bear cubs names yet today?
Thanks for all the b-day wishes for Jennifer - I'll be sure to let her know!
WOW! All the little otters are our all in a row! Love those little ones.
have not heard yet, Jo, I'm sure they will annouce it on their FB page
I got another eagle cane yesterday! At Cracker Barrell. A much bigger handle than the ones from NCTC. I'll bring it on the 12th to show it to y'all.
Saw a very preggers doe this AM...won't be long before the fawns pop!!
great view of the NBG eaglets and a parent right now
Saw on the news last night that there was a lion cub born at NZ----first one in like 20 yrs. Yea!!
Magpie -- Chrissy is the one who got me on the Scotland ospreys and, yes, I'm sure she is watching. She's been a busy girl this week making English roast and Yorkshire pudding for Iris. Has anyone been in contact with Iris? I'm sure she'll have some great stories when she returns.
Another eagle cane! Wowsie I best keep my eyes open when I go to Cracker Barrel.. That would make a nice Open House Raffle gift.
So glad to see Hedgie on here.
I just wanted to pop in real quickly to say for those holding Vicky and her family up in prayer on Fri at 1PM during the memorial service for her brother that South Bend is in Eastern Time zone so it is at 1 pm for most of you out by the sycamore tree :-).
Got a cake in the oven and some brownies to fix. Family is coming in on Sun night for 5 days. 2 hollow legged teen boys this time so I am a cookin :-) Notice my healthy choice of foods so far LOL.
CICO AND LUNA STORK CAM
5 baby storks were recently born
Sorry for duplicate lion cub info! Thanks, Mits! Can't get the cam to open....this laptop may need some download for different media. Too bad they took down the Andean bear cam.
Happy Birthday to Jo's Kristin!!!
thanks Glo for the time notice again regarding the Memorial service Friday and prayer time for us...
Oh, Brownies....great way to start things out ! Happy to hear of the upcoming visit - Dex will get lots and lots of lovin' I bet ♥
straining my old eyeballs watching the Lion Mom....thought I saw, maybe a "bath" being given, all still now
headed out, best wishes for a good day today, prayers for all our many needs, especially for wellness and comfort
caring about you all, all your activities and challenges
xo
GLO Kids do love Comfort Food!
Hope Dex enjoys the boys as much as you will!
Lynn Change that to Jennifer!
You and I have a rough time keeping our daughter's names in line! lol
Amazing about the laser treatment. Hope it becomes more available for use. Certainly not an expensive option and it doesn't hurt or stress the bird! Thanks, Paula! So glad that you are closing today....that will take a lot off of you all, for sure.
Jo, is it your meds causing wakefulness or is it that late evening cup o' Jo(e)???!!!!
Thanks Mits for the link. I still have a quizzy feeling when I see that nest... Our little Hugo! Looks as though the sides of the nest have been built up.. Wow - to have 5 should be a record & I hope they all make it.
Adult really has to spread those wide wings to cover them all..
Loretta, we knew about the Fin. photo stuff last year! LOL---I think you did, too!!
I, too, think Lee will win AI after last night. But he and Mammasox are both good in their own niches and will have good careers. DWTS: all good, but think I'm sticking with Evan!!
315 viewers watching the nesting loon.
I like it that I can check in on them at night with the IR lighting.
Oops....sorry about wrong daughter, Jo. Make that HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JENNIFER
And to Paula's bro, too!
The increased dosage of prednisone to clear up lungs from this head cold does it. I just lie there in sleep mode but can't quite make it.
Did you watch all 3 TV shows last night?
Is the Good Wife going to support her hubby?
Is Gibbs about to meet the daughter of the Drug Dealer he shot.
I am to glad that Mr Callan just may find his father....
Wow! exciting night!
Lots of crunching and munching going on in our nest......
Palmer sure is peeping and singing for her lunch.....
The moose video was funny....that baby looks too big to be nursing and it looked like he was trying to knock her over---suspect that there was no milk there anymore!!!
5 babies---what a nestful!!
Gotta go get ready for cut & color. Later, gang!
Palmer will be 12 weeks old when we visit. She could be out with an adult learning how to fish by that time.
Crossing my fingers that we see the whole family!
OK Street clothes and Lunch.
Our little tweeter is making me hungry!
Good Morning Those In Eagleland
Thank you Glo I will be with you all at that time on Fri. in prayer.
Mits thanks for the links. I got to see the lion cub on tv it was a quick and I mean quick shot.
I have been having a terrible time trying to get on the blog. "Go away blogger cop".
Must go to town to mail contributions to Locust Grove Volunteer Fire and Fire in Honor of James "Jim" Wilson. He and Ed were very close. Ed's grandfather "POP" and "Mom" raised him. So Jim and his sister Judi and his brother Oran "Chip" (Chip) is from Long Gate, California. Me and Jim always teased each other. Those were my family within Ed's family that we would go to the Lake of the Woods. Shirley knows where it is. Funeral is tomorrow and he wanted to be buried by POP up in Cresaptown. He could have been buried in Arlington. He retired from the US Navy as Chief Petty Officer after 20 years of service. He was like Ed Jim was on oxygen. Last time we went to Lake of Woods. We took Ed's machine with us so we could just plug it in and not worry about bottles. It was so funny Jim and Eds tubing kept getting messed up. Jim was a character he said, "Oh let's just hook them together and we'll suck off the same line making it 10 instead of the 5. lol Chip is a nurse and he said when they were playing Penny Annie Poker "Pop" and Ed's Dad's favorite game, Chip said, "The only 2 winning around here are thoes 2 on oxygen. Someone pull the plugs." tee hee
Shirley here is the link. I don't know if you knew them or not.

I have been enjoying Palmer this morning.
Thinking of Vicky and family and her brothers friends.
Prayers for all that need them. Plus praises for a lot of things God has done.
I see there is a NEW THREAD
..Palmer has learned to clean her beak after eating... Also at the 7:00 position I think I see a large eagle feather there.
Now to lunch
