Will call everyone over.
I received my Birds & Blooms today.
Anxious to get it opened. I really do love the magazine.
Megan Webber said on FB 2 hrs ago:
Think we got about a half an inch of rain early this am. Yes...off to cut more flowers.
Great decision Shirley on your vacation accommodations! Sounds like a very fun trip!
Wow an inch is great, we got 1/2 inch
07 finally chowing down at WE
Can only see 1 chick at LOL, other one may be on the left side of the nest.
Thanks for the new thread, Steve and the call over, Jo.
I can only see 1 chick on the wide angle cam at LOL
OK, I can see 2 now on the wide angle...hard to see, but one was blocking the view of the other.
Thanks for the call over Jo. Steve I'm happy to get a new thread thank you.
I can't help it...maybe I just needed it Lolly. Looked at pictures of Jack getting the turtle named Jo. My mind went to,
"Well Mema Jo you found such a nice place and now Lolly and Jack are kicking you out. lol"
Thx Steve for new wet thread & Jo for call over. It is raining here---don't know how much yet.And it's 75!!!!
thanks for the call over, Jo....
Still cracking up Mema Jo you are going from a nice clear fresh water to a YUCKY probably muddy cow pond. Is that anyway for you to be treated lmbo sorry
The delicate work of removing and replacing a cap over the gushing oil well on
the floor of the Gulf of Mexico has started.
;)
Lolly please take a picture of Mema Jo being released.
Let's pray it works Mits!
PRAY that their attempt today, works! Baby needs a new pair of shoes;)
hope so, just feel so awful for the people and the animals suffering there....BTW the whale was 50 blocks south of me....more usual for them to beach during the winter than the summer,,,hoping this was not the one that visited a few weeks ago, but stuff happens
we have had a nice steady rain here for the last 2 hours....nice day to relax and read a book
the second clutch on the WW bluebird cam, which had 6 eggs this time, have started to hatch....looks like 4 so far....
http://wdfw.wa.gov/wildwatch/bluebirdcam/video.html
Jo, did you ever get an answer about the still cam????
No I'll resend email for Steve to see Monday am. With Palmer having fledged I'm not sure of what will be done. I assume the in house can is still running..
Question: Where does the Outdoor channel live feed pics come from?
(Excuse my grammar)
I've finished lunch.. Thinking I will sit out on the deck in the cool breeze.
Rain hasn't arrived yet - I am thankful others are getting the showers
Dana, Check your email for me, please.
Does anyone have "beetles large" flying around from the rain?????????? Millions of them!!!
I've had all sizes of beetles (like a June bug) most evenings. I also found a Japanese beetle eating some of my flower's leaves. Squashed him fast!
July 10, 2010 (11:51 AM CDT) We located Hope easily this morning after not seeing her yesterday. She is doing well and looks great! -- SM
Not Japanese beetle or a June bug. Looks sort of like Japanese beetle but greenish. Millions flying low to ground.
Hope is soooooooo Spunky!
None of those Dana. I will holler if I see one.
putting my feet up in the breeze
BBL
Back from the market. Got the jalapenos, tomatoes, and tamales that I wanted. Peaches were way to high and did not look all that great. Need to search at another market for them.
Guess what!!! I saw my baby donkey! He is A-OK!!! Only had my phone to take a picture and it did not turn out. Need to go back with my camera. MY donkey is so cute! lol
Dana, Jack released "Jo" and I did not go along, therefore no picture.
Sorry!
p.s. - just saw on FB Gianni who got her ears pierced today! She is so
adorable, Paula!

Hi, Gang,
Mighty glad to be back here after a long absence~!
Think that Hubby may have most of you beat for feeling "dorggy"! On Thursday night he went to bed early as usual, and when he woke up at about 10:30 to make a trip to the bathroom, he felt pretty dizzy. Almost fell down, but caught himself by grabbing the bedroom door jamb--giant clunk!!
Almost scared me to death--I was still in the living rm. watching a TV show. He had EXTREME vertigo!
Had to help him to the bathroom, then back to bed. Moving his head even 1/4 inch made him VERY nauseated! Knew he needed to see a Dr. ASAP, but he was so bad, we knew that 1) It would be almost impossible to get him into our car, and 2) a car trip would make him REALLY sick to his stomach! He had this before about a year ago, but this time, it was twice as bad as the last! Long story short, finally decided to call 9-1-1, and he went by ambulance to the E.R.. They gave him all kinds of tests, including a CT scan of his head, to rule out stroke and heart attack. Finally gave him a shot in the I.V. for nausea, and a pill for the vertigo. Couple hours later, he was able to walk (only a bit unsteadily) out to our car to go home! I got him into bed, then spent quite a while calling & texting family to let them know he was OK. Then had to call his boss & one of his fellow workers to excuse him from work on Fri....
I HEAR PEEP PEEP PEEP>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Andrea, almost sounds like...BPPV..BENIGN PAROXYSMAL POSITIONAL VERTIGO..
Whoo Hoo There is our Palmer!!!!!
Well for heaven's sake! Only stayed a few minutes...... POOF!
Hi Andy,
Keep us posted. Hope your hubby completely recovers quickly.
That was a quick visit from Palmer. I missed the take-off because I was saving a picture.
Did you get the pic Shirley.... Too quick for me!
Shirley went back to the closets!
Andy - You had a very eventful night.
Hope hubby is doing ok now and that you have gotten some rest.
Had a phone call - now my feet are going back up!
BBILW
Got it, Jo. I will post it later.
...after that, had to call at 7 am to primary care Dr's office to get him an appt. on Fri. for followup. Meanwhile, every time he needed to go to the bathroom, I needed to hold him up so he wouldn't fall on his face. Thank God, someone cancelled an appt., and we were able to get him in to see the Dr. at 1:20 pm! We both go to the same Dr. now, and she has had vertigo before, so she understands what it's like. He is doing MUCH better now, and can walk on his own. I am feeling rather SLUGGISH, though, after pulling an all-nighter on Thurs. night! Finally did get a panda nap late Friday afternoon, and slept like a ROCK last night! Sorry I didn't get here before now to bring you guys up to date, but boy, it's really been crazy! Hubby feels MUCH, much better now.
This vertigo thing takes a while to go away, but the caplets they gave him for it really help once they take hold. He's out of work until Tuesday. I'm relieved that I don't have to hold him up to walk while holding a plastic tub handy for him to hurl into! (Sorry--that's not a pleasant picture!) The Dr. said that this was a complication of the upper respiratory infection he had that started 3 weeks ago. Somehow his inner ear was affected, which messes up your balance. It's like having sea-sickness x10!
I'm glad Palmer has been back to the nest, but sorry I missed her!
Hope Lynne and Paula are feeling much better, and Megan too! Still praying for Karen & Kailey.
Well, gotta do some cleaning up and get to Wal-Mart for the weekly shop. Will be back later to chat more. Have a great Saturday! :o]
Mits, your diagnosis is RIGHT ON!
You get an A+! That's exactly what the Drs. called it. By any name, it really SUCKS! Not fun at all! Hubby is MUCH, MUCH better now. Last time he had this, it took a full week for him to start improving, so this should go away sooner. Thank GOD! Gotta run now...BBL! :o]
Definitely hear the Palmster.
lol...Andrea it is because I have had it before...not a pleasant experience...was by myself at the beach...had to have my friend drive me home to DC.
Golly Book Wrm. I am glad hubby is ok.
I had a similar situation but my doctor explained to me what my BP medicine does.
But I have always had that weird problem even as a child but not as dramatic till the BP meds.
I think we are going to get some action on the nest.
Andy, so sorry for the problems of your hubby. Glad he is on the mend. That was frightening!
Exciting things going on at Hawkwood. Was talking on the phone and watching birds at the feeder when I saw a red bellied wookpecker feeding young in the redbellied wookpecker house that Jack built. Never had birds there! Whoopee!!
Palmer must have flown off.
Wow, Andy, glad you called 911. Happy to hear he is doing much better. Scary night for sure.
Totally missed Palmer...glad she stopped in!
Have pic of Gianni on Paula's Prints!
Just heard Palmer.
The baby bluebirds are rioting on their nest.
I would like to see an adult feed a slug to them. lol.
They have calmed a little now.
The chimney swift is moving around on the nest, yet the nest doesn't budge. Must be very sturdy.
Something to read up on.
A woodpecker house? You must be tickled.
Now just get a cam and put it on the web so we can watch too!
I checked the barn owls a couple of times. Can't tolerate watching since seeing a video on You Tube of an adult killing the chicks.
Just can't do it yet.
Hi,
I posted the picture of Palmer on my, then I got kicked off, and had a lot of trouble getting back on. I had to re-boot the computer before I could get back on here.
on my blog, that is
That is a bluebird riot, BEagle.
Heading to the closet, now.
The picture of Palmer is very nice.
The picture of the big keyboard dust bunny is adorable.
The swifts glue their nest sticks with sticky saliva. Wow. Talk about some hearty spit.
Hi,
Am back from the shower and some hair & makeup damage control, and looking much better. Don't think I'll frighten any small children now.
Mits, that must have been really scary to have that hit you while away from home! Our Dr. told us she actually came to work with the same condition once, but had to go home when she actually fell down while at the office. Had to hold onto walls to even stand up. She's a hoot--said it's like being drunk, but without the buzz! Well, gotta get to Wal-Mart--BBL.
Now my feet are back on the floor. Need to get ready for Mass this evening.
I guess that Lynn didn't get over to Christy's to get on her laptop. :<((
Lolly the bird house inhabitants got passed you! Glad you spotted them.
Paula - I was admiring your gd over on FB. You're right Mits - she sure looks great in teal!
Just heard Palmer for sure. Thought she might be coming to the nest, but no!
There goes the Palmer alarm. She is in the tree, whining away!!!
Hear our favorite eaglet yelling away.
Hear our Palmer - not in the nest but above it
Oh, the Palmerlarm is sounding!
See you all later - off to Mass
Lots of Luck getting that Palmer down into the nest....
BBL
Heading to GF house...catch ya'll later!

Both of my cam feeds are down. How about yours??
I visited Doreen's site today...she's the lady in Sioux Falls, SD, who has been fighting the good fight against canser (her spelling). And now would be a good time to enter your good wishes or prayers for her if you want to.
Doreen's blog
C(°Ù¿°)D Jim
OK. I've got the live feed now.
Sometimes I have to disable "Ad block" and let the site run a commercial before it will show the live feed. Now I can probably enable it again and it will be fine.

Hi Jim. Any news on WE #08?
Hi, Beagle. I'm not sure which one of the WE eaglets you are referring to, but the younger one apparently has not fledged yet. He's standing tall in the nest now.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Both of the TH fledglings have returned to their nests at the moment. Probably waiting for dinner.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
http://www.justin.tv/iwsciber2/b/266403490
Paula, you may have already seen this video when #08 went off the nest. You can see him attempt to get back on the nest but about the 25 min. mark, he disappears altogether.
Oh hi Jim. Apparently the older eaglet did not fledge but attempted a new perch on that stick to the right of the nest. He just couldn't make it back on the nest.
Eaglet #08 will have to fledge from where he is or make his way back to the nest. They were around the time of fledging anyway.
It would be nice if someone would go out there and plop him back on the nest but I doubt they would do that.
One of the TH eaglets looks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
The younger eagle was just nest flying. Hope he learns from #08 mistake.
Are you sure about #08??
If she's flying on her own, regardless of how she got started, she's fledged.
Has anyone gone out to see if she is flying about or not?
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
You're right about the little (ha, ha) male. He's getting some quality wing activity going as he faces into the wind.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
I think it's Dr. Sharpe? He or someone went out looking for #08 they couldn't get close enough to the nest but he/she is equipped with an antenna and they have been picking up on strong vocalization.
To say fledge seems to mean they left the nest. Does that mean intentionally or not?
The adults have been feeding the fledged and the other puts up a fuss about it according to the people on the chat.
If she's flying, #08 has fledged. And I think she is easily old enough to be flying....
Eagles often fledge accidentally, when they are blown out of the nest during test flights... still fledging.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Uh-oh. I think I just saw #07 fledge.
He was winging it just beyond the rock. I could only see his head...then saw the wings and he is now gone. He may be hunkered down on the other side of the rock but I believe he has fledged.
Yes, I think you did see it, AND now he just flew back in from the near side and is calling for food.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Wait...who is on the nest????
What did I just see???
I need to see the tag on this bird.
He only took a short flight, but a flight it was. You saw the take off and I saw him come in for a fairly good landing.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
That is #08 on the WE nest as far as I can gather. He had to figure out how to fly.
He looks pretty pooped.
Just opened the cam & hear some squealing in the distance. Come on down!!!
I posted before I read your post.
I got up for ONE measly second and he comes in for a landing. Are you sure it's 07? Maybe 08 has returned.
I saw an eagle flying in the distance.
Maybe a parent, maybe an eaglet.
Well, I have just witnessed my first fledge. Yay.
Hi N. Nut. Palmer has been heard all day. Came on the nest for a split second (did not see that). Other than that, Palmer noise may be the most we hear of her.
The eagle on the nest is 08 which is the one that slid ungraciously out of the nest. He's back and I am glad.
Looks like he needs some rest!
Hi, Gang,
Back from the Saturday shopping trip. Hubby went along, and did very well! He's really sleepy from the vertigo caplets, though. If he sits down for longer than a couple of minutes, he falls asleep.
Not supposed to drive while taking that stuff, either. It's double the usual dose.
Don't know whether it was #07 or #08 that just fledged, but whichever one it was, congratulations to them!
Gosh, we have baby herons all over the darn place around here! Just about anywhere you look, somebody's looking back! LOL
So Jim. I saw 07 fledge and you saw 08 return.
Good sites.
Thx Beagle. I had been away from 'puter most of day.Guess we probably won't see any sleepovers.
;>(
I think I can read #07 on the wing bling, but I'm not sure.
Eaglet is too small to be the female though......
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Well, it seems that both WE eaglets are males, so disregard what I said about the size.
I "think" this one is the same one that just took off, but I'm going to take a look at their blog....
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
They seem to be confused too...
I'll check back later.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Nature...it has been a while.
I am glad your hubby is doing better.
Good to take it easy.
I heard wings at WE, and when I looked, I can see some feathers of the second eaglet in the lower L/H corner, so all are accounted for.
Now, they're both calling for food.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
OK Jim.
I am going to check a video recap too.
The eaglet turned a few minutes ago and the 08 was clear to me.
08 hasn't been on the nest for a couple of days.
At any rate, both WE chicks have fledged. And that is a good thing.
According to their blog, 07 might have just hovered a bit and then settled back down on the ledge...
There's no question that 08 "flew" back into the nest. I saw him land.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Once fledged they need a reward.
Two big fish are in order.
Still at least one on the TH nest. It just called for food and it sounds closer to an adult eagle's call than what we are used to.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Well, shucks. And I thought I saw a fledge at the WE nest.
Nice poop shoot from the eaglet at TH.
Not as diligent as Palmer though.
Looks like it rained at BWO. Even the lens is clouded.
I've got to go take care of business. Talk more later.
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
HELP!! Where is the WE site? Trying to catch up.
Palmer is calling!!
Hello! Home from Mass and Dinner at the Out Back - very good piece of steak.
I hear Palmer & up on the cam I see a shadow...
Hubby and I are watching 8-10 a TV show. BBL
West End
Diann, do you have the link to Beakspeak?
Hello everyone.
I see Shirley continues to go into and out of the closet. Split personality?
Paula, hope you have a nice time tonight.
Jo, please remember to wear goggles and a snorkel while in the murky pond.
Lynne, glad you saw a doctor and got some relief. Not fun.
Andy, also very glad hubby was given the correct diagnosis and the medication needed to stop the vertigo and nausea. Could not have been fun and maybe a bit scary. You need to get some rest, also.
Grocery shopping done.
Dinner over and going to watch First 48.
Missed Palmer every time I checked today.
Jim, will send a prayer for your friend Doreen.
Also sending prayers for Karen and Kailey.
BBL
Sorry. Hello everyone. Have been away for a while trying to keep cool and going to PT several times a week. Ugh! But it seems to be finally making a bit of difference. Of course, my script is about to end. Ahhhh, the luck of the Irish.
See the doctor the 19th so he'll probably order some more sessions if it's helping. I'd really like to do the aquatic therapy, but he feels we weren't meant to be in water so must learn to be on land. Isn't he funny???
Had Jim cut my Stargazer lillies that were knocked down. Boy, did they suffer in this drought. They don't smell as strong either. Boo hoo. But they are beautiful.
Hope Megan's flowers are doing better than mine. After all she went through this past winter she should be given special rainfall.
Saw Lolly's garden pics. My dream gardens. Your hard work looks really nice.
Also looked at Wanda's video of GG's presidential b-day card. I hope someday to get one too. Way to go GG!!
Hope all are well or on the road to recovery. I remember reading some were "under the weather" and hope the sun shines soon for them.
Well enough for now.
Sorry Dana. I just went and bought a peanut butter cup.
Here's the site. I am sure you know to copy and paste into the upper browser bar.
http://www.iws.org/bald_eagles/nestchat.html
Andy, thank you. I didn't have the sites on this computer but I do now. Thanks
Oh shucks. It was Nana. Please forgive me PA Nana.
Sorry,I mean Shirley!
Thank you Shirley for helping PA Nana with the WE link.
The address I posted gives you all three cam sites on the Channel Islands if you are interested in that.
BE no problem. As you can see I get mixed up on the names too.
They tell me it's my age. You know, those tarnished golden years.
bbl
Thanks for the Beaks Speak link
Shirley.
Nana, like a good wine, we get better with age. : D
We can make all kind of mistakes and people say "she's just getting old."
He he he he.
Blog acting up?
Ready to head upstairs and read for awhile.
Good night. See you tomorrow.
Judie, sometimes I think my personality is not just split. It's splintered. You just never know what I might do next!
One eaglet on the TH nest.
No eaglet on the WE nest. I do see an eagle on the far most rock out at the sea. Don't know who that is. Just flew off.
The royal nest is unoccupied. Spidey is occupying the lens.
Hi Diann, happy that PT seems to be helping. Hope you'll be able to continue with it if you want to. Remind your doctor that aquatic therapy is really good for those with with arthritis, etc.
It's okay, Shirley. Maybe we could just call you Eve. Trip sounds like it will be fun.
Did I miss Margy today?
I think it is time for me to begin searching for the sandperson. So will be turning my light off soon. Will leave the night light on for others heading back the hallway, up the stairs, to the tub, to the shower, coming in late, trying to get into or out of the closet, or just plain stumbling around in the dark.
Heartfelt prayers for Karen and Kailey and Jim's friend, Doreen.
Judie - you forgot to mention that I needed 'frog feet' lol
Goodnight Shirley and Judie and any others headed to their pillows.
Restful sleep to all.
I'll be surfing a while and will check back later.
Finished watching TV - not yet ready for bed.
Diann - hope the PT can be extended since you are realizing that it is helping you feel better. Hope Michael is doing well.
Had to go back to see Jim's remark about Doreen. I think the Caring Bridge is a remarkable site. These people are so courageous.
Prayers for Our Momster Karen and for Doreen in their battles against Cancer.
Sadden to see that Lynn didn't get a chance to get online with us today.
Too late to be calling - I'll try to touch base with her tomorrow.
I also want to go to Farmer's Market tomorrow so I am hoping the temps don't go too high too fast in the morning.
Jo, Mike is in Chesapeake,VA with his sister and her family. He loves it down there and tries to fish as often as he can. I hope he finds a job down there soon. His unemployment isn't going to last forever even with some savings when he sold his house. But you can't put an old head young shoulders my mother used to day. I don't really want another one to come home for any lenght of time. So looking forward to an empty nest.
Geez, I'm getting sleepy already. Meds are working faster tonight. So I better get myself situation on the recliner try to watch the end of one of the movies - Buddy HOlly Story or Footloose - I like the music.
\
So goodnight dear friends catch you all tomorrow.
God bless
Time to head back the hallway
Take care all - Smile {:<)
Good Night Everyone
Prayers for many loved ones
Hugs to all ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Reading the Martinsburg Journal, I came across a Journal Junction comment from a Hedgesville caller, giving the devil to Verizon and Frontier...Now who do you think that was? LOL
I keep thinking it is my turn next...can't handle losing the Internet...that is my pacifier!
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL
Hope Update
Got late on me!
Heading to bed.
Nite all! Sweet dreams!
BEagle - thanks so much for the link for the Justin TV archive!
It was definitely K08 that returned!
And K07 flew up to the cam pole...don't know it that is still where he is or not.
K08 took off again later from the nest.
Diann, glad the therapy is helping, hope the Dr extends it for you!
Had a great nite with GF and hubby, shrimp on the bbq, steaks, zucchini, pasta salad, etc...and some refreshments :)
Breakfast at LOL already
Lynne, hope you are feeling better. Did you catch any fish?
Hi, Gang,
Dropping in to say goodnight. Think I'll go watch some TV. We have a lot recorded that I need to see.
Diann, that's great that the PT is making a difference, and you're feeling better!
Haven't been able to catch up completely on the blog, and don't know how long it will take. Just saying prayers for everyone, and letting God sort it out. He knows all our needs, even when I don't.
Leaving the night light on, and the porch light, too. The eye scanner security is enabled. Hope we all have sweet dreams tonight, and an uninterrupted sleep. Will talk to you tomorrow. God bless, and goodnight! Love all you guys!
:o]
There are some night owls on tonight.
:)
Good morning, everyone.
Eyes still blurry so need some coffee.
In my best four-year-old voice: Oh, Mema Jo, you know turtles don't have frog feets.
Paula, glad you are feeling better and had a good time last night.
Not much going on for me today. Think I may just chill with some reading.
Wishing all a nice morning.
Good morning,
Our nest us empty.
The LOL nest is peaceful with the whole family there.
Hi, Judie.
Windy at LOL, Dad took off. One youngster keeps stretching a wing and poking Mom in the face. She's eating.
I hear Palmer.
Almost said Hidey.
Good Morning Judie and Shirley!
I hear the hummmmmm....
I'm not complaining, mind you, just sayin'
Good morning Strong
Good morning Judie.
Good morning Paula.
Anyone know what the mass is in the middle of the nest?
Hi Paula and BEagle.
I hate to think what the mass in the middle of the nest might be. Probably something smelly.
TH-is empty
PH-is empty
WE-is empty
Royal nest-is empty.
Morning, BEagle. I think it's just sticks and shadows.
Good SUNDAY MORNING, July 11th.....
from LOL...
July 11th, 2010 by fiona, osprey HQ
Hi folks,
If you were watching you will have seen chick no.1 spread its wings, hover above the nest and then fly free at 9:09am this morning! I will update you all more in a bit when I get everything else here sorted. Anyone else feeling emotional?!
Fiona
Well what a morning! When I got here at 8:40am, I just knew the conditions were right for a first flight, and both chicks were enjoying the fresh breeze, feeling the ‘wind beneath their wings’! I had sat by the video recorder for about 15mins and decided to get some work done and just as I sat down to count the money, the chick vanished from the screen! You’ll notice it took a while to find where it fly off too as mum had flown back onto her perch, just to confuse me! This was probably to be a landing beacon to the chick. It made a few attempts to land on various trees but the wind proved to strong and blew it over the top off them. An initial attempt was made to land on the nest, which it overshot by a long way, and I admit to having a giggle at that. But after another flight round about the loch, it came in for another attempt and made an almost perfect landing! Lady looked like a proud mum watching their child take it’s first steps while chick no.2 cowered in the nest looking slightly petrified! We just have to hope it plucks up the courage to follow suit, and today would be the perfect day to do so.
There was a lot of confusion as to whether one chick had flown last night, but I have had a look back at the footage and they did spend a lot of time on the edge of the nest just out of camera range of cam1. This is our night vision camera which gets switched on when we leave at night. Unfortunately it appears to have been blown to the right which we won’t be able to correct until the winter when we get up the tree to do some maintenance, so apologies for the poor picture your getting at night.
Keep your eyes peeled for flight number 2!
Fiona
The way the light shines on the assorted nesting materials. Okay.
Ta-Da!!!!! I'm back!!! Good morning to all. Woke up this AM to find that internet service is finally restored! Hmpfff---sure took long enough. Will I ever get caught up?? It'll take me awhile for sure. Trying to get through emails is like slogging through snow!! Hope all of you are well. Will pop on occassionally as I get caught up, but do have an Animal Advocates meeting this afternoon, and going out for an early dinner afterwards...so I'll be in and out, on and off!!!
Wow.
What time was that for us?
BEagle - thanks again for the info on the justin tv archives...passed it along on the IWS/CHIL forum...some knew about it, but most didn't. Thanks so much!
WELCOME BACK LYNN!!!
BEagle, that would have been around 4:09 this morning!
Hooray for LOL chick!
Wow....my password still worked and everything! You all have NO idea how very much I have missed you, and how many tears I have shed in the past week+....
Yea, Lynn!!!! Welcome back! You were missed. (((HUGS)))
Thanks, Mits for the LOL blog post.
If you don't go to the blog page, you may not see the most recent post. I always head there first, then on to the cam. The blog post on the cam page is still showing July 8th post
Good morning all! So, how is everyone this fine morning?
Paula, sounds like you are feeling much better.
Think I am going to finish my 3 cups of coffee and head back to urgent care...now I have a stoopid ear infection! Falling apart here, must be getting old :)
Oh Lynn, you must have felt so frustrated and helpless! Had that experience initially trying to get DSL...took forever, no answers, blah blah blah
HELLO MY FRIEND ! Lynn I am so happy to see your comment.
Gee Paula. You just got a serious infection. Bless your heart.
The chick at LOL just took off like a PRO
OOps I guess that was a parent
aww they are snugged up side by side
Sorry....infections have nothing to do with getting old.
When you have been sitting for a while and you get up and you are stiff.....that is old.☺
As far as the IWS nest updates go...I was checking the chat and happened to notice some discussion about #08.
When one of the posters mentioned they had a video..I remembered that Justin posts video footage. There's a lot of footage and had to view two videos before finding it.
Or, you sit on the floor to play a game with your grandsons and your leg goes to sleep....that is old.
It is hard to tell MUM from the chicks at LOL. Maybe she is a little darker?
I was thinking that the LOL cam would be nice on Belle and Lib's nest.
The LOL cam moves all over and around the nest area or zooms in on the nest activity.
But then it is manned.
But wouldn't it be nice to see Palmer or future eaglets all over the place?
Hi Hedgie. Glad you are back!!!
Hi Lynn, welcome back...I tried to remember not to send you regular emails, so you would not be overwhelmed when you got back on:)
Lolly - Mom has the more solid feather colors. Chicks are more speckled looking.
Hi Lolly!
My LOL is down..anyone else?
Nevermind...
Yes, it would be nice to have that cam...and manned. Then when the Momsters have a nest visit the cam could zoom in on the Momsters. lol
Eaglet at TH
LOL getting some air!!!
Hi Jo.
yes, Paula, I always head to LOL's blog page 1st, before going to the cam page, but Ceil, alerted me to the news by email...
How was the Birds & Bloom?
Welcome back, Lynn.
Thanks, Paula!! SO glad to be back....hate to think of all that I've missed.
Thanks for phone calls from so many of you---that helped a lot!
My LOL went down as I was posting about how nice it would be to have that cam!!
CT osprey cam all covered up again!
Lynn, you really have not missed much, animal wise:)
LOL...one of the LOL chicks just did a neck maneuver like an owl. Really cute!
I don't see a TH eaglet. Must have been a quick visit.
That split just fell in there.
