Hey! I'm all caught up---on this page. ;)
wow did my camera go black black I see her head on occasion bobbing
is that Belle?
Beautiful night out. Warm, clear as a bell and so many starts, and the Smiley Moon!
Going to hit the sheets....prayers for all and have a good night.
Hi all! Been playing catch up and watching the nest. You think that is Belle? Why is she in the nest???? Belle, what is going on?
Those were security lights from NCTC...her head was down by her feet, she's been doing that from time to time...you can see her on the still cam, too. Body facing more noonish.
Lynne, she's standing.
Worked in the yard all day and then we had dinner outside in the garden. Perfect night for dining out. ☺ Now I am sitting here with ice on my back and watching AI.
OK one and all have a good night I can't believe its almost 930 God Bless this nest and all who watch it
Goodnight Judy and Lynne. Sweet dreams.
Hi, using my phone to lurk and blog. Kathryn and Tom are using computer to do taxes.
Read that Belle is in nest.
Good night everyone. I hope Belle isn't sad and gets some sleep too.
She was awake, think she's asleep again
Shirley, she's standing in the nest at the 12-1 position
Gnite, Christine, Judy and Lynne.
I gotta get some stuff done, but I'll be keeping an eye on the nes.t
Time to head upstairs. Good night. Rest well.
Why is there an eagle in the nest?
Good question, Sharon!
Truder and Belle were there earlier. Truder flew away, but Belle stayed. ??
Does anyone know who started the NCTC blog on facebook?
Belle must be lonsome for the "good old days" :(
Didn't Pam do that, Wanda?
Decided I would join the crew in supporting Lib!
TEAM LIBERTY
Yes, it was me. I am still trying to change the name, per NCTC's request, but Facebook still won't let me.
Is Belle tucked? Her position has changed.
Thanks that was beautiful Pinellas eagle.
Belle seems to be watching for something............
Bears
American Idol was good again. I think they have the best judges than they had before. Due to that is why the contestants are really having to do their best.
Night prayers for Lew, George, Diann's pain, Judie, Tori and any others.
Night
Goodnight Judy, Christine, Lynne, Shirley......see you on the morrow.
The sandperson is creeping down the hallway so it is time to set the timer for the night light.
Goodnight Shirley and to others turning in later. Restful sleep for all.
Night everyone.
I can't believe Belle is still on the nest.
I got up early with Granny this morning, so I am going to go relax and MAYBE fall asleep before 2 a.m.
Well wishes for all who need them.
Good night, sleep tight.
It's 10:22pm (east coast time) and I can see Belle's white head at the 11 oclock position. She is looking to the NW.
Goodnight, Dana.
check out this Hawk dive bombing people was on news so I went on their facebook page and found this link
http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/dpp/news/local/sun_coast/dive-bombing-hawk-040511
I have been on the phone talking with Laurel. We are going to Denton tomorrow afternoon. Jacob has a program. Laurel says he is very excited. He has to take sunglasses for something in the program. LOL
Friday we are going to Dallas. There is a reception for grandparents at Zach's school. We go to the reception, then chapel with the kids, then to his classroom. After that we are having lunch with Michael. Have not seen his new office on the
44th floor of a new building in downtown Dallas. Really looking forward to it. Michael got all new office furniture when they moved.
Did anyone notice that Criminal Minds was set in my area St Petersburg, Tampa, Ybor City all were mentioned really got my attention I still can't believe she is in the nest looks like she is waiting for someone Liberty Maybe We can only hope
Ok back to the news and then to bed I have the computer up and running and just noticed she was still on the nest I don't power down till I turn off the tv Once again God Bless this Nest and all whom watch over it Peace be with all
Thanks, Judy, for the link about the rs hawks. I had read about it but had not seen that video. Glad they are not going to move the hawkettes!
For three years we had rs hawks nesting in our trees. A lot of our friends came out to look. We had no problem. Thank goodness! No dive bombing here!
Sounds like a nice couple of days Lolly.
Gnite to all those turning in.
Looks like Belle is going to spend the night.
If there had been HP for sure, I would think Belle was trying a 'sleep in' before laying an egg. But I really don't think Truder is old enough for HP...he sure did try, but he doesn't know which end is up yet:) Tee Hee
She has turned around facing the camera now, it looks like. Going to bed now.
I want to clear Dr. Bill (dentist) of any wrong-doing. Gene mistakenly handed me razor blades instead of the floss because they were both shaped the same. He got the blades to scrape glue off my rear view mirror. So there, Dr. Bill, your good name is still intact:)
Nite Sharon♥
Well daggone if she isn't laying in the nest now...it looked like she was for a minute or two...now she is facing the cam..can't tell if she's standing or laying down...kinda looks like standing
It is really strange. I have my laptop connected to an external monitor, have both screens where I can see them. The monitor is darker than the laptop and I can see her a lot better on it.
She's still just sitting there......
LOL Wanda! Glad to hear the dentist is not handing out razor blades. Made me wonder!
Belle was really moving around. Sure wish we could see what was going on.
It looks sometimes like I can see her tail like she is laying down.
Well, I have been tilking my laptop every which way just trying to see better! But, tilking does not help tonight!
JudyE, the hawk story was on our news this evening. Saw wounds on one person's head, and the landowner putitng out signs. The RDH just sat up in the tree and watched!!!
Fat-fingered.....RSH's...not D!
LYNN...I do believe you have hit on an omen with a name like, Eagle Pass Rd. Glad you are going to pursue it.
Front porch, Lynn. Squirrels built a nest in the ceiling and rain came in from their gnawing at the wood and it rotted...literally falling down.
Can't get started until we are issued a building permit and you know they will (county) do that when they are good and ready!:(
Mike (builder) said he can get it done in 3 days. Getting everything vinyl-clad. No painting, ever!
Need some headlights :)
LOL, Wanda! Glad that Bill is in the clear----really couldn't figure out why he'd give out razor blades! I was going to ask Christie to check her bag closely next time she goes!
Found out a little while ago that I have a meeting tomorrow---at 10AM....too early....but gotta go. So will say my good nights now. Prayers for all. Love all of you, my fine, fowl friends.
Sharon, I can see her better on the still cam
Well, we could send Wanda to the nest to shine her headlights. LOL
I was actually going to see if Wanda and Gene might go over with a spotlight and spend the night for us. They could go home and go to bed at dawn.
Paula, do you see her tail too or is that the tree? If it is her tail, then she is definitely laying down.
Oh My! Just getting back and can't
believe my eyes - the still cam -
whoa momma!
I can't see her tail...I think she's standing...saw her laying on the still cam, but then a few moments later it looked different...head higher in the nest
Thanks Paula. The still image cam is much better.
Do you think she is facing us
or is it the back of the head.
Mema Jo, she is definitely facing us.
You could definitely tell when she was laying down on the still cam...
Okay, going back to lie down. Will blog from the bed! ☺
I am looking or trying to see the
feathered collar......
Getting late again!
See Belle is still in nest. Maybe that's a good way to get away from Turd!!!
If I konk out & don't get back,
Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)
Well Wanda would need a spotlight...don't think the car lights are going to work from the road :)
Hey, who has the guards number?
Well, has Wanda gone to the nest? LOL
aha, there we go...not long enought tho
Jo, It's definitely Belle, we've been watching since 8pm
Well, that was good light for a second. Daggone Wanda, that was fast. :)
She must be standing...her head lit up pretty good...
And I look out my window and there are Bamboozle, Mabel and Momma. Love these deer! Babies are getting big.
Screen is pitch, but you can still see a small amout of her white head.
I know, I know, pulling a Magpie! Good night! :) ♥ and ((((HUGS))))
And one more thing -
I spoke with Tara this evening and told her I would request prayer for her Daddy again. As it turns out, he had an infection from a port, went into septic shock. They are going to try to get him back off the vent tomorrow. He is still really sick and not sure yet if he will pull through because the cancer is pretty bad, but Eaglet Momster prayers are totally awesome! ♥♥♥
We have a good sized order from Mountaineer Food Bank coming in tomorrow, that we have to load from the tractor trailer and then unload and put away at the church, so a good night's rest and sleep is necessary:)
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS AND BLESSINGS FOR ALL
Oh I agree it's our Belle. The scariest thing is that we know Belle
stays in the nest over nite prior to
laying an egg..... What are you thinking?
I wonder why she isn't tucking her head under a wing.......
Don't know, Jo...All I've seen is these two hanging out together...there isn't an egg cup...although they have brought fresh fluff...no molding of the cup...not much time spent on the nest...no bringing of fish by male...no confirmed HP...Strange courtship if an egg does appear.
I have no idea what to think! But, I would be in favor of an egg, but they did not even have an egg cup today, just flugg!
Maybe she was tired and just felt like staying in the nest...
Our mystery this season just keeps getting more mysterious.
Would be soooooooooo neat to have a
night light with some brightness to it
I have had a busy day so off to bed I go.....
Hope Lori gets a surprise in the am
Good night friends
Prayers for many being said
Hugs for all ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Now she's closer to the cam...diggin?
Now it looks like she is standing at about the middle facing left...now moving again.
Now it looks to me like she is laying down, facing 10ish
I see she has turned around now.
She has a couple of times stayed in the nest over night and kept us wondering just like tonight.
She does look like she is laying down now...egg cup area.
Once again, you can see it better on the still cam.
I'm Back..
Facing 10ish & lying down - I agree
Live feed is just about black...still laying in the nest.
Actally I can see nothing on the live came. No white head, no tree, no nothing!!!!
If someone just now would look at cam
and we said we see an eagle in the nest they would think we were crazy
I see the head and the tail.
I am having a hard time playing Angry Birds and watching this bird.
I don't think she would fly out/up until day breaks.
Just trying to get with the program and change my avatar...
OK now to see if it worked. Oops, Lolly, didn't mean to steal your yellow color.
Prayers for George WVDana, hope he gets good news about the bones.
Geula, loved Norfolk Daddy,
Susan and Grey, and his Mom in my prayers too.
Blessings and prayers for all, night, night
Is she tucked now?
No, just saw her move.
I haven't seen her tuck all night.
I think she is tucked now..
Good Night Sharon, Lolly and Paula
& all others who be looking at that
black screen with the white head & tail............ ((hugs))
Well, good people, I am going to get ready for bed...check back in a few minutes.
What on earth? Is that Belle in the nest? Has she done this before? Hmmmmm MTBR I guess.
Night night again, ((((hugs)))) and prayers for all who need them
Well, I am all tuckered out. Good night everyone.
I slipped off to bathe and get ready for bed. Now I find everyone else heading to bed.
Iris! You stole my color!!! LOL That's okay! I am a little different. I had thought about going all yellow. Also, thought about creating my own design, but Sharon did such great work! Thank you, Sharon!
The still cam is now getting darker. I think that means it is time for bed!
Lori....look carefully at the still cam if you come on. Belle is in the nest or least she is right now.
Heading to bed. Night, Paula!
Night all! Sweet dreams!
I am heading to bed too.
Lori...last we saw was Belle laying in the nest, facing 10ish...let us know what you see!
Well, it's 2:14 but screens are as black can be...
but I think I will make a point to be up for before first light to see what shows up then
Whew! What a mystery !
On another note, Finland Water is thawing out ! For Real !
Still Cam shows Belle still in the nest, head up by 11.
believe it or not I wish I was at work...could probably see something on that computer !
well I am glad you can see it Lynne, I sure can't
Hello by the way ! I'm caboosing it tonight for sure
She is moving around, and in doing so you can just barely see the faintest of faint white movement on the live cam
I even blew up the screen size but that isn't showing me anything either
OK I do see that Lynne..
thanks
up high like you said
hi Margy! Can't see much of anything on live cam, but when she started to move around I could just make it out. On still, better picture. But having said that.....
UGH! She moved again, head toward 4, then she moved again and now closer to 3
morning Ladies, I can't see anything on the cam either
Nice going with the BOLD
you are a good girl ☺
She is moving around quite a bit from 2 to 5 positions
Hi Robyn
good report on Tori ♥
I really can't see anything now
going to grab a snooze and get back up in a few hours
God Bless Us, Every One
xox ♥
OK she is facing 3 and seems to have settle there for the moment. I can't tell at all if she is laying down or standing.
This is Wee Wee Hours Reporter signing off.....Good night morning and good watching.
things have quieted down in Scotland
Osprey at Loch of the Lowe's
Loch Garten, no birds
She is laying with her head towards 10 o'clock and she is tucked. 5:03 a.m.
I missed out on all the nest drama last night :o(
Still very dark, but Belle's head can be picked up on live feed. Better pic on still cam. She appears to be sitting on or very near the original nest cup with head tucked.
Looking forward to sunrise !
Good morning Sharon ! Did you sleep a wink ? I wouldn't have had I been in on the happenings late last night, I'm sure.
Good morning Kay. Lori? you there? Trying to catch up. Looks like there was a night visit? I have some reading to do!
Is that a white head we can see at about the 11:00 position?
Yes, Dana. Still cam has better image right now.
There is definitely an eagle in the nest!!! Maybe Belle from last night.
She's moving a bit, head up, looking around. Did she just take off ? Nope, there she is again. She's just moving around a bit.
Working crazy here on possible govt shutdown so really busy.
She's moving around now. Looking up?
Thought you must be here Lori :)
Okay opened the still camera too.
I understand why you're so busy ! Here's hoping something breaks the stalemate and a shut down is avoided !!!
Belle, or whatever eagle this is, is alert and looking all around now.
I've got a lot to do today too. Suppose to send interim reports out today and need to write them up. It's a little hard for kindergarten. I don't have a "pre-made" form like the rest of the school so I have to create my own. Parents expect it because they are going to Yale next year! LOL
You young gals are all so busy. I love this retirement life ! About 10 today I'll pick up my granddog, bring him home for a day of play and walking and then we'll go to the H.S to pick up my grandson. They'll both be with me til' about 5pm. That's as serious as life gets around here most of the time !
That sounds so good Kay. I wish I could be home and play with my dogs all day. They would love it too! Summer is only 33 days away for me and we have spring break in there too so soon, very soon, I will be living the life again. Until next year!
I was up late last night and it was the saddest thing watching Belle just sit in the dark. It was def. Belle who was there last night, maybe she needed a night in the nest.
I don't think Truder has been here this early or spent the night in the nest.
Think Belle could be getting ready to put an egg in the nest?
It is sad. That's why I have such a hard time watching the other nests, like Decorah and Norfolk. I can hardly turn them on anymore. I'm really attached to Belle and Liberty just like everyone here.
I was wondering the same thing about the egg? Is it even possible? Would love to hear what our experts say.
...wish it would get lighter out.
Nothing would surprise me with this nest, Lori ! Someone posting last night said Belle can't be ready to lay an egg because there hasn't been any HP, or words to that effect. Most HP doesn't take place on camera, however ! Light changing for the better, I think I detect Belle's inverted V.
For those just coming on board...
Belle remained in the nest after Truder left at 8:30 pm and it seems she has been there all night
sometimes moving around, sometimes still and tucked
you can read all that backwards but that gives you a head start
You can see things better at the moment on Still Cam but live feed should lighten up soon
Good Morning Eagle Pals xox
xox to you, too, Magpie ! Good summary, thanks !
Thanks Magpie. Been getting the gist of things with a quick read through. What does everyone think about this? It's odd behavior right?
We have actually, in the past with Liberty, seen a lot of the H-P in the nest and could "hear" it when it occurred in the branches above...
but no confirmed sightings of H-P since Liberty was part of the TEAM
seems very unusual...
as other things have been unusual..
Paula has pointed out there is no conspicuous "egg cup" in this nest right now, though a lot of fluff
but in the past, Belle has spent the night in the nest when it was close to egg-laying time.
but maybe she is tired and just wanted to lie in the nest, just very many questions....
I'll hold off on posts now while we are watching
It's all so interesting. Just think though without the camera we would never be learning so much about this beautiful bird. I am so intrigued.
Belle in nest, awake and sitting near-high in nest-fluff area, tail towards 11, head facing out in 2 o'clock direction
...don't forget to refresh your live feed !! ..
Yes, I've witnessed HP here and in most of the nests I watch, pre-egg laying. The Hampton Rd. moderators have said it often takes many encounters before fertilization takes place and that most HP is out of camera view. Who knows what these two have been up to. I can't believe, based on what we've seen of Truder and his immature behavoir that he's ready for fatherhood and it's responsibilies !
yeah...but lets face it, many immature men are not ready and it happens anyway!. LOL!
she is nearly still as a statue
beautiful view of her talons
Couldn't resist that!
I hate to leave, but I need to start getting ready for the day!
LOL, Dana. You are spot on with that observation !!!!!!
Belle is quite beautiful this morning. Wish I could look so good first thing in the morning !
Belle very intently looking out to her left (our right) towards 2 am spot, and sometimes, the other way
Sorry you have to leave right now, Dana. Check back in before you head out the door.
Takes a stretch and is up towards back of nest
6:18 am and Belle is still on the nest. Clear view of the V but can see her feet so she must just be standing there. She is facing south from the 12 oclock position
And she flies out towards 5 o'clock
Woooooops. She left while I was typing.
Truder arrives
and nothing in the nest cup where she was roosting overnight
\AND HERE'S TRUDER MOVING STICKS
Gads, now the Turd is in there.
6:23
Truder working sticks up near 12 o'clock
Morning all:)
These eagles sure keep everyone guessing...
Today's nest weather- Mostly sunny this morning...then becoming mostly cloudy. Highs in the mid 60s. North winds 5 to 10 mph.
God, I pray Belle doesn't leave the nest to get away from Truder.
Could be, Lori. It looked like she saw him coming and took off, because he landed within the next second.
Wow now Truder in the nest...geez what is going on?
Truder buried his nose in the fluff awhile, now just crouched still with his tail on the rails at the 12 ..showing his talons and looking around
Glad you guys were here posting because he is in the same spot that Belle was in when I left. I would have thought we had it wrong all along and that Truder had been the one sitting there.
Thanks Megan pretty nice report
Truder flies straight out and up at the 11
and Why?? because he came right back in
TRUDER BACK AND DOING NESTORATIONS
smack in the middle of the nest
did anyone see, did he bring in anything like straw ?
my live feed is jumpy...kinda looks like a fresh batch of straw at the 11 and he was moving it around
Had to refresh right in the middle of that take off and re-landing. He seems antsy. Wonder if he's just watching Belle or if there is another eagle in the neighborhood ?
And there's our daytime color
Truder lying straight across the middle of the nest, head towards 10 direction and tail towards 3 direction
Poof he's gone
Truder stands up, turns around, and takes straight up and out at the 3
Geeze !
And right back into center of nest ...and then gone again !
it is very hard to keep up with this bird and it takes my posts 15 seconds to publish
Good grief ! He is agitated over something. In and out, in and out.
sure seems that he is, Kay...
that's a bit of a pattern for him these days, the in and out and in again
There is probably extra activity on campus with the training going on, wonder if that affects his actions .. he does not know the ways of the territory yet
Maybe Truder will decide he does not like PEOPLE and will move on LOL ☺
going to load up a few pics in the E-M album
back in a few
Best wishes for a good day, everyone
I have figured out what is going on here. Eagles are magical creatures. And they have figured out how to supernaturally install cameras in each of our computers. They are watching US now. And just to make things more interesting for them, they are doing these crazy things to illicit more interesting reactions than the usual "ooooo" and "aaaahhhh" typically associated with nest watching at this time of year.
And they are laughing at us.
Thanks, Magpie ! Sure appreciate the good work you do for us ! Here's hoping you have "an apple dumpling dandy day" !!
blackbird maybe a grackle or starling in the nest now...
cute !
oh shucks...was..is gone now
Too funny Lynne, thanks for the morning chuckle.
Well Lynne..if Truder has a look at ME that will surely send him on his way !!!!
Thanks Kay - -same best kind of wishes to you too ☺
part of the day will be spent regaining sleep
Watch for the Split
Too good Lynne ! No wonder Truder the Marauder is so agitated. Anyone who gets a glimpse of me at this hour of the morning is likely to go into shock !!!!
Newspaper reading time. Later........
Lynne are you reading Stephen King books again? LOL
Well almost time to head out the door. Will have to lurk the rest of the day. Split?
S P L I T !!
Busy day - lurking some here.
Very funny KayIM!
Hi Lynne.
Morning Margy.
