its been a busy day. we went to the hunter's car show down at the fair grounds. it was pretty nice; not the biggest we have seen, but overall, we got out and enjoyed. not real crowded either? maybe it was just early.
had lunch at o charleys...they have a lovely black and bleu salad....romaine with steak, grape tomatoes, bleu cheese, a few croutons and nice ceasar dressing, heavy on the anchovies today! yummmmm my appetite is slowling coming back, but i had a half salad and could not finish it all. of course the soft roll and a couple of cheese wedges might have something to do with that, lol.
we worked in the yard some....tom planted the mimosa tree we have been babying fora couple of years now...and we put some more weed block and white rocks in the flower bed. almost done now, about 3/4 of the way. another 20 bags should finish that one up. it sure looks nice with that white marble.
grandkids will be here shortly. mom and dad are goign to a predators' hockey game. they won't be spending the night, however. i'm still on that cough syrup with codiene in it at night to fight the cough and it just knocks me out too hard. if one of the kids needed me i might not be able to respond.
sounds like everyone has had a nice day...(((hugs)))) light, love and smiles to all!!! human, fin, feather, and fur, indeed. <3
P,S< LYNNE2...do you make your own dog food and if you do, or whomever does, can you email me the recipie? my pharmacist's dog has severe allergies....
Thank you JO and JUDIE...I am feeling well with the amount of exercise I got today, the hour walk. I will be alright for tomorrow...I am already yawning JUDIE!!! It is only 3:15 here!!! LOL!!!
Thank you JUDYE I saw the picture in the album this morning. I get email notices.
Putting notices on line for the Nelson Grans to Grans event in May 25th. Reserving a place on the calendar.
Could we try to state clearly which nest we are talking of when someone announces it seems there is a crack in the egg!!! JUDYE where are you seeing that. Not ours I hope.
wow been a while since I opened a can of bean and bacon soup not the same color as it use to be more of a navy bean color I though it use to be darker in color a sort of tan orange sort of not the color it is now Maybe they took some dye out of it who knows I thought odd so I opened another can and both are the same so now I have to cans open Silly me better be safe that sorry didn't want bad bean soup LOL
HEY did I tell you that Zacam has a new flavor of crystal ( melts quick also) that don't taste bad lemon lime tooo late for me with this cold but will remember the next time
wasn't too bad til bigmouth came home about an hour ago. My Lord, I have no idea what one person has so much to shout about, and all he does is yell yell shout scream. I feel very bad for those children. What a terrible way to have to live....
Well talk I heard on the street today, new lingo to my ears:
Herbed up!
Medicinally Enhanced!!!
All in relation to Nelson's favourite Agricultural product!!!
I kept walking and did not crack up till I got to my car!!! I attended an afternoon gig at Nelson Unplugged the usual Saturday venue of local talet at the Health Food Store!
Thank God for Urban Dictionary JUDYE!!! LOL!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! In the 60's yes and as SHIRLEY asked a while back, I did inhale!!!Not often and not frequently either. What's out there now is not cool and I would not use it. Synthetic stuff kills you and causes brain damage and psychotic episodes...
This is so funny one day at work someone asked me if it was 420 I looked at my watch and said OH I hope not its only 3 they all laughed I dummy didn't know till someone explained it to me what it meant
4:20 or 4/20 is how it is written SHIRLEY. It started in a Fresno school I do believe from what I read. They were trying to find a cool way to communicate with each other that they were headed out for a toke. It does not surprise me. The kids I taught did not use this terminology but always wanted to know if I participated in the community garden!
Good night JO SED
I will go turn my clocks ahead too the phone and computer do it by themselves. I still have a few old fashioned clocks. I wished my car did it by itself too. Spring ahead that means an hour later...I am talking to myself so I know what I am about to do...spring ahead an hour later... BBL
The sandperson is making stealthy moves down the hall way so I think it is time to turn the night light on and to let the delivery of sleepy dust begin. Sandperson gets confused with the time change. Restful sleep for all.
Yes SHIRLEY we are on the same system for day light savings switches. The business community wanted it so we went with it.It did start in the US and we followed suit, just common sense on this one.
I will be at the yogathon tomorrow from 9:00 AM my time PDT to 7:00 PM! That is the plan any way. Wish me well and if I do not last I will check in with you all when I come home...I will check in any way!
ain't that something, Lynne2! never thought of that. I DO Know that our midnight 9-1-1 crew has a shorter night, but gets paid for 8. Then of course the bars....have to hurry things up by 2, because then it is immediately 3....though they might be able to serve til 3:30...can't remember, have Not been there nor Done that
We are home! What a day!! The game was very exciting. The Terry team got behind by 13 points and it really looked like the other team was going to stomp them. Then after halftime Terry made a come back, the score ran very close, then Terry went ahead and WON!!! It was awesome! Really kind of unexpected. Terry has never been to the playoffs. The other team has been 10 times, and won the last two years. They were probably stunned and wonder what hit them.
We waited around for the team to exit the dressing room. Took lots of pictures then 13 of us went to dinner. We were hungry!!
Drive home we watched the weather radar. The storms were approaching. Saw a awesom lightening show and then it poured. We are safely home and have had over an inch of rain here at the house. Yes, I could say it has been a good day!
oh dear, I assumed it was Belle because I couldn't see a spot. Now I cannot see a spot on this eagle either! I just don't have a good night picture....
Sandi...you would appreciate this. Laurel said "Why don't they make the time change at 2:30 in the afternoon during the week?" Oh, boy...end of the school day an hour earlier!!!
Okay, heading to the shower. Joseph had a ball. Loved the day and is already sound asleep. Laurel has headed that way and now my turn. Jack is watching recorded hockey game.
Good Daylight Savings Time Sunday morning my eagle friends!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LORETTA!!! I'm sure your daughter's visit will be your best gift - enjoy!!!!
Lolly, what an exciting basketball game - I bet you're hoarse from screaming! Love the move the clocks during the school day idea - but only in the spring! =)
Hoping to hear there are still 3 chicks at BWE. Once the nest became covered in fur or feathers, I never did get a clear glimpse of the littlest one.
Prayers for continued healing for Dana's dad and Lori's dad, and for Sharon and Andy that they get some relief from their aches and pains.
Tennis for me at 9am. Then grocery store since we didn't get there yesterday. And I would love to get to the local eagle nest to see if there is any action there.
BW chicks exposed too but can't see how many are there in the night vision I see two but can't make out a third I hope the other is just keeping warm under its sibling
Good morning...did I mention I DO NOT LIKE the time change! I do not LIke it Sam I am. I do not like it, even with green eggs and ham! blah!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOWREEDA AND LORETTA! :) :)
THANK YOU SANDI for sending the dog fod recipie.
We had a good night with the kids ... good grief with three of them it sure is BUSY.....
We have grocery shopping this morning. I never did get it done a couple weeks ago....good thing I have lots of extra stuff. I did run to Publix for a few things we ran really low on or ran out.
Tonight is the next to last week of bowling. Then a break til September. That's okay cuz soon it'll be time to boat, to fish, to work in the yard.....
Well, eggberts should become eaglets this week....eggciting! waiting waiting waiting!
Good morning Happy Birthday to Loretta It's a rainy melt the snow away and usher in spring kind of day here. I am on schedule as I set my clocks ahead at 7 or so last night LOL. Dex never minds eating an hour earlier. It doesn't go so well when we fall back though. Big week ahead for NCTC Have a Blessed Day everyone.
Happy birthday to Loretta--hope your day is GREAT.
Finally got to go birding for a while yesterday saw--
100's of Coots 100's of Canada Geese 40+ Redheads several pair of Hooded Mergansers, Scaup,and Grebe 4 Snow Buntings 1 Canvasback other usuals and ONE BALD EAGLE
I forgot to say that I got an email from someone telling me my FB acct. had been hacked and all I needed to do was download some of his software to keep it safe. Seemed like a scam to me.
Good morning to all at the Sycamore this beautiful Sunday morning.
BWE is still stuck and hoping for a good outcome for #3.
Linda, sorry you've been so sick. Honey tea for you and try some vasoline on a q-tip up your nostrils for some relief.
Did another eagle survey yesterday on the Bluestone River. Our site saw 4 juvie balds, one adult bald and 1 golden. We had soooooo many TVs and one BV pair that played for us. Fluttering around each other doing aerials. It was a beautiful day. We had about 40 or so out at five locations. Also, stopped at Brooks Overlook and observed that pair of eagles twice... going to and returning from Bluestone. Saw one on the nest with two eggs and other adult perched in a nearby sycamore. Just lovely.
Hope everyone is having a great day. It's beautiful outside!! woohoooo
we are off with the dogs to Pretty Boy watershed! Steve may pee himself he is so excited to be going somewhere! Hope to see SOMETHING interesting! BBL!
Linda, sure hope you feel better. SRPING IS HERE!!!
Lori, hope to go on a peregrine count soon. I haven't seen peregrines in the wild so it will be very educational for me. Always meet such nice folks, too. Bonus!
Laurel and Joseph just left. Jack cooked a big breakfast for them and I did not eat a bite. They had very cheesy omelets, bacon, and biscuits. I ate a scrambled egg, a small scone, and a banana. Aren't I virtuous! :)
Lynne, that earth quake was very close, but, no, did not feel a thing. We were all asleep. Oh, Joseph may have been up and watching TV.
Linda, so very sorry you have been so sick. Do hope those antibiotics do the trick. This is your busy time of the year, too. Get well, Girl!!!
Susan, I've been watching too and see the same as you. Nothing is mentioned on the site yet so maybe they're holding their breath and wishing for the best.
Home from the grocery store. Now off to the eagle nest to see if we can catch any action there! Fingers crossed!
Bird count for this afternoon: 2 great blue herons ( 1 perched in a tree, 1 in flight) 2 coots 1 loon 6 hooded mergansers (sp?) and ... ONE ADULT BALD EAGLE!!!!
When we got to the pier where we sit to watch the nest, we didn't see anything so we decided to walk along the shore to a point where a fellow teacher told me there is another nest. When we got to the point, I heard eagle calls - behind me - back where the first nest was!
Hurried back to the nest and, sure enough, there was a big, beautiful bald eagle standing on the side of the nest. It took off shortly after we got back to the pier. We waited another 20 minutes to see if it would return but it didn't. I'm wondering now if it was a parent switch and we just couldn't see the parent in the nest?
So that tells me the nest is active and makes me think there are either eggs or small chicks in it. We'll go back again next weekend.
I see the BWE chicks enjoying the sunshine. Not as warm as I thought it was supposed to get today, at least not right on the water where we were.
winds a WHISTling in the cam as I walked in the door I can just imaigine what the neighbors thought with my windows open Was loud forgot to turn down the sound when I left OOPS I heard it as I walked to the door
still NO sign of the third bobblehead at BW I read :-( I see there is a contact on that page I was thinking about asking but to sad to ask I think we all know ;-(
LYNNE1 I sort of got the same message about a week ago and they said I had a virus and I could download McGafee or what ever it was security I think just a scam also I did report it to facebook They had locked me out of FB till I ran the scan and off course I uninstalled it after
Friends of Blackwater NWR Patti: I do think we lost the youngest on Saturday. The cam just came back up, so I'm waiting on confirmation. But we did not see him in the last three feedings. 2 hours ago · Like
Friends of Blackwater NWR There are a lot of duck feathers still blowing around. I do know we've had several feedings with just two heads and two bodies seen. 41 minutes ago · Like
BLACKWATER wished up luck with our upcomming event I posted a pic of the two being feed a few min ago on thier page and with the comment I didn't think the third made it
HOPE and HONOR or now branching won't be long and they will be gone so funny to see tail geathers in front of the cam lens Like we didn't know where she went LOL
POOF and she had something on her beak when she left and yep the fish is all gone and here is Lover boy on the scene and he is cleaning up nestovers she left him a morsel I guess
Right Judy. I assumed #3 had been covered. When Pa came in, he stood around the nest a little bit and then went at the nest floor at around 5:30 and dug a hole. I swear he dug in there to see. Hadn't seen that before. See the hole when he stands up.

IS anyone else keep getting black screen and have refresh?
Judy there is a close up of the MN nest egg...on FB, I just shared it.
Don't hear anything JUdy but it is possible that on such a warm evening that Wood Frogs and Peepers might just be signing!
I know I saw it on there to that is why I asked about the blood looks streaks on the egg
still only see two babes at BW and the noise has now stopped LYNNE2
Well, no one seems concerned about it. To me it even looks like a crack in the egg....??
I hear rustling maybe someone is on the cam its not Shep he is to still
Been looking hard at BWE, and I only see 2 as well.
I have not heard the frogs JUDYE if you were talking about hearing them on our cam.
times like this when I hate that 20 second reload....
night light
SHEP WANT SOME ATTENTION
distress? our nest?
Could we try to state clearly which nest we are talking of when someone announces it seems there is a crack in the egg!!!
JUDYE where are you seeing that. Not ours I hope.

Thank you Ladies.
belle in on cam
SHEP IS NOT HAPPY HE WANTS TO GO OUT WITH THE BOYS LOL
Someone lands on the cam Shep vocalizes and is NOT distressed so it must be Belle.
THE STILL CAM HAS A GOOD PIC WITH HIS MOUTH OPEN
I GRABED THE PIC AND I ALSO GOT ONE OF BELLE DOING THE SAME EARLIER
I THINK BELLE IS IGNORING HIM
EARLIER THEY HAD A LITTLE TIFF WE THINK ON THE EXCHANGE SHEP WAS LATE AND BELLE TOLD HIM ABOUT IT LOL
I AM HUNGRY I wasn't earlier so I guess need to go make some bean and bacon soup
The third bobble at BWE really had such a long shot at making it. But I sure hope he's still there, under the flugg somewhere!
what the heck was that noise? sounded like a splash!
camera shakes...Shep looks up and continues to incubate.
In the NCTC nest I did not hear a splash or any other sound except a take off when camera shook.
Night Light on
wow been a while since I opened a can of bean and bacon soup not the same color as it use to be more of a navy bean color I though it use to be darker in color a sort of tan orange sort of not the color it is now Maybe they took some dye out of it who knows I thought odd so I opened another can and both are the same so now I have to cans open Silly me better be safe that sorry didn't want bad bean soup LOL
Soup is done BBIALW
Evening all! Judy, I sent the dog food recipe to Janet.
Lynne2, how's the new place coming long? Have the dervishes finished whirling?
LOL! Dervishes are still whirling, at least for another hour or so! Then dinner and rest! Tomorrow, an outing with the mongrels!
Steve has been a tropper, he has been reorganizing the kitchen cabinets!
Steve has been a tropper, he has been reorganizing the kitchen cabinets!
Well, I best get to the last of my tasks. I've already been sitting too long and I may never get up!
sounds like someone is knocking on cam
still tappin on cam box
Lynne, how has the noise level from upstairs been today??
Thanks Sandi
for sending Janet
HEY did I tell you that Zacam has a new flavor of crystal ( melts quick also) that don't taste bad lemon lime tooo late for me with this cold but will remember the next time
Well I really should go make out some bills
wasn't too bad til bigmouth came home about an hour ago. My Lord, I have no idea what one person has so much to shout about, and all he does is yell yell shout scream. I feel very bad for those children. What a terrible way to have to live....
Belle is tucked
and I hear noises on the cam box
Well talk I heard on the street today, new lingo to my ears:
Herbed up!
Medicinally Enhanced!!!
All in relation to Nelson's favourite Agricultural product!!!
I kept walking and did not crack up till I got to my car!!!
I attended an afternoon gig at Nelson Unplugged the usual Saturday venue of local talet at the Health Food Store!
Now you have it!
did you 420 HODA
Thank God for Urban Dictionary JUDYE!!!
LOL!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
In the 60's yes and as SHIRLEY asked a while back, I did inhale!!!Not often and not frequently either.
What's out there now is not cool and I would not use it.
Synthetic stuff kills you and causes brain damage and psychotic episodes...
This is so funny one day at work someone asked me if it was 420 I looked at my watch and said
OH I hope not its only 3 they all laughed I dummy didn't know till someone explained it to me what it meant
I have partaken in the past but didn't know the lingo I should say
Need to go see if I have anything that I need to catch up on the DVR BBIALW
You can't teach in an American high school and not know about 4-20. Not sure the correct way to write it out, but heard the kids talking every year.
Well it is early but Hubby turned up all the clocks in view - I am getting tired already.
Enjoy the rest of the evening and don't oversleep too much!
Saying Good Night and SED with AOYP
I love us! ♥
I am doing TERRFIC Tuesday watch NCIS Being AI was on that night I usually watch it Yeah for the DVR of cable
I hear something lightly on the cam Shep must be up there watching over his family ok back to TV
4:20 or 4/20 is how it is written SHIRLEY. It started in a Fresno school I do believe from what I read. They were trying to find a cool way to communicate with each other that they were headed out for a toke.
It does not surprise me.
The kids I taught did not use this terminology but always wanted to know if I participated in the community garden!
Good night JO SED
I will go turn my clocks ahead too the phone and computer do it by themselves. I still have a few old fashioned clocks. I wished my car did it by itself too.
Spring ahead that means an hour later...I am talking to myself so I know what I am about to do...spring ahead an hour later...
BBL
Okay, I just accidentally signed out of Google. Hope I get back in.
I'm back. Hope you have gotten your clocks taken care of, Hoda.
Good evening all.
The sandperson is making stealthy moves down the hall way so I think it is time to turn the night light on and to let the delivery of sleepy dust begin. Sandperson gets confused with the time change. Restful sleep for all.
I would not have known if Canada was on the same daylight savings system as the US. Less confusing for sure.
Good night, Judie.
Yes SHIRLEY we are on the same system for day light savings switches. The business community wanted it so we went with it.It did start in the US and we followed suit, just common sense on this one.
Goodnight.
PRAYERS♥
I will be at the yogathon tomorrow from 9:00 AM my time PDT to 7:00 PM! That is the plan any way. Wish me well and if I do not last I will check in with you all when I come home...I will check in any way!
I♥US
Good Night Eagle Pals....
long day at work into long evening with personal tasks,
might catch up on reading the posts
before the times changes.
Got a very nice email from Jim today, he is "Jim-Dandy"
and busy with his many interests and the things of life itself.
Prayers for Wellness all Around
God Bless Us,
Every One xoxo ♥
OMG, I never watch Saturday Night Live, but it's on and what a trip down memory lane it is!
Dan Akroyd and Steve Martin as 2 Wild and Crazy Guys...OMG! They have aged but look good!
Hi Lynne....
does it quiet down at nighttime there...???
I am really distressed reading
about BigMouth :(
it's usually quite at night, Margy.
Looks like some bobble heads visible at BWE....night light too bright for me to make out how many.
Thank God for Small Miracles, then
Lynne2.
It's Great Horned Owl O'clock
but I moved the clock ahead so it seems like Mockingbird O'clock now.
So therefore:
Happy Birthday to our very own, Genuine, NatureNut Loretta!
Sooo glad you have family company for your Birthday xoxox ☺ ♥
I noticed that Mom Blackwater is not really fully asleeping for the night, Lynne2,
been watching for a little while
I guess we'll probably see more in the daylight....
at BWE...
Sigh.....hoping for good outcomes there
4:20 or 4/20 - never
heard of it except for here...guess I was not part of
that particular aspect of the culture in my time
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LORETTA!!!
Gee, what a bummer....the birthday girl loses an hour of her birthday with the time change....UGH!
ain't that something, Lynne2!
never thought of that.
I DO Know that our midnight 9-1-1 crew has a shorter night, but gets paid for 8.
Then of course the bars....have to hurry things up by 2, because then it is immediately 3....though they might be able to serve til 3:30...can't remember,
have Not been there nor Done that
Well, Belle is awake, so is Lady Blackwater, and Lucy, too! Restless night for eagles!
Oh my. Must get to bed. Very tired, very sore. Agitated at how long it takes for me to get things done any more.
Have fun with James the Wise Margy!
See you all in the morrow! Going to be SO beautiful!
Good night and prayers for all!
G'Night Lynne2....
hang in there, try not to get discouraged....all things in good time, my friend
I heard it was real nice out today (that would be Saturday)...
didn't quite get to experience it
but on Sunday I will !!
We are home! What a day!! The game was very exciting. The Terry team got behind by 13 points and it really looked like the other team was going to stomp them. Then after halftime Terry made a come back, the score ran very close, then Terry went ahead and WON!!! It was awesome! Really kind of unexpected. Terry has never been to the playoffs. The other team has been 10 times, and won the last two years. They were probably stunned and wonder what hit them.
We waited around for the team to exit the dressing room. Took lots of pictures then 13 of us went to dinner. We were hungry!!
Drive home we watched the weather radar. The storms were approaching. Saw a awesom lightening show and then it poured. We are safely home and have had over an inch of rain here at the house. Yes, I could say it has been a good day!
two eagles in our nest!
belle off, shep on
Had a fun day...didn't get a thing done, except visit with GG and later with Rachael.
Good night all, prayers and love♥
belle poofed. I think it was Belle, isn't that who was on the nest?
oh dear, I assumed it was Belle because I couldn't see a spot. Now I cannot see a spot on this eagle either! I just don't have a good night picture....
Sandi...you would appreciate this. Laurel said "Why don't they make the time change at 2:30 in the afternoon during the week?" Oh, boy...end of the school day an hour earlier!!!
Okay, heading to the shower. Joseph had a ball. Loved the day and is already sound asleep. Laurel has headed that way and now my turn. Jack is watching recorded hockey game.
See you all sometime tomorrow.
Night all! SED
Good Daylight Savings Time Sunday morning my eagle friends!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LORETTA!!! I'm sure your daughter's visit will be your best gift - enjoy!!!!
Lolly, what an exciting basketball game - I bet you're hoarse from screaming! Love the move the clocks during the school day idea - but only in the spring! =)
Hoping to hear there are still 3 chicks at BWE. Once the nest became covered in fur or feathers, I never did get a clear glimpse of the littlest one.
Prayers for continued healing for Dana's dad and Lori's dad, and for Sharon and Andy that they get some relief from their aches and pains.
Tennis for me at 9am. Then grocery store since we didn't get there yesterday. And I would love to get to the local eagle nest to see if there is any action there.
Make it a great day all!
Hoda, enjoy your yogathon today!! Sounds like fun!

EAGLE WHICHEVER IT IS IS TUCKED IN NOT USE TO DST LIKE ME I AM SO SLEEPY I WANT TO GO BACK TO BED
BUT ON A DIFFERENT NOTE I DO FEEL BETTER
Blackwater babes are uncovered and I am only seeing two beaks. =(
NOT 100% BUT BETTER
BW chicks exposed too but can't see how many are there in the night vision I see two but can't make out a third I hope the other is just keeping warm under its sibling
i see you see the same thing SANDI
I think I'm seeing 3 black beaks now at Blackwater!
Color at our nest!
Looks like feeding time at BWE. I only see 2 heads facing Mom. =(
I have BWE open on 2 different screens so the picture is changing at different times and for sure, only 2 chicks are being fed.
I see the same thing SANDI only TWO
BELLE is picking at flugg in front of her and on sides
time to head out the door LatorGator
Morning sunlight is hitting Shep and the nest. Love that pink hue! Have a great day at work Judy!
Blackwater chicks are uncovered again and the nightlight is off. Easier to see the chicks - still looks like just 2.
Good morning my eagle peeps.
I don't know about you all but I woke up around 7, the same time I usually wake up. What's up with that? : )

Sunny here. Haven't checked the temp yet. Snow has been quickly melting away, though.
Janet, my bowling goes until the end of April. We'll end with a banquet at a local steak house.
I really need to spend the summer practicing.
Good morning Happy Birthday to Loretta It's a rainy melt the snow away and usher in spring kind of day here. I am on schedule as I set my clocks ahead at 7 or so last night LOL.

I surprised myself and didn't sleep in this morning - maybe this is the time zone that my body is favoring.
No plans for the day - another relaxing one!
Enjoy the sunshine of the day ♥
Love your reports on bird calls, Margy. You have such a good ear.

100's of Canada Geese

Love your reports on bird calls, Margy. You have such a good ear.
I forgot to say that I got an email from someone telling me my FB acct. had been hacked and all I needed to do was download some of his software to keep it safe. Seemed like a scam to me.
Thanks Shirley, but I am getting rusty! Need some outdoor birding time,
Like Grannyblt! Super Birding Report, Lynne1!
BWE has a note they are aware
the cam is stuck...
BLUEBIRDS! Hear them all over in the field out back this AM, too! GOing to find out who owns that field and ask to put a house up!
I see BWE is hung up, but I just read back and see that you all have only seen 2 babies this AM :(
Can't imagine your being rusty at all, Margy.
Good Morning...
Have been terribly sick with this cold,strep or whatever it is...
Doctor on Friday said the throat looked very inflamed, red and an antibiotic was definitely needed. He said he didn't need to do any strep tests.
Friday night I was up most of the night again.
Still, this sore throat lingers. I got a humidifier yesterday in the hopes that I could sleep. My nasal passages and throat are dry and raw.
I did finally sleep a couple hours yesterday afternoon and slept last night as well.
I am hoping today will be a turn around day with this darn thing.
Happy Birthday Loweeda!!
What a special birthday, spending it with your daughter. Enjoy your very special day!!
Have been very worried every time I watch the BWE feedings and see that little one not get much chance...
I see the cam is stuck now and some of you are watching and concerned as well. Praying the littlest one makes it.
Have read through the posts and would love to comment, but just don't have the energy today...
Just remember, I celebrate and care and pray with all of you....
Enjoy the sunshine today!!
Prayers, Linda. Hope you are much better very soon.
Home from tennis. Some days you're the dog and some days you're the hydrant ... today, I was NOT the dog!
Linda, I sure hope the antibiotics kick in and help with your throat. This has been dragging on way too long for you!
Waiting for some news on the Blackwater chicks.
Lolly did you feel the earth move??
QUAKE
Good morning to all at the Sycamore this beautiful Sunday morning.
BWE is still stuck and hoping for a good outcome for #3.
Linda, sorry you've been so sick. Honey tea for you and try some vasoline on a q-tip up your nostrils for some relief.
Did another eagle survey yesterday on the Bluestone River. Our site saw 4 juvie balds, one adult bald and 1 golden. We had soooooo many TVs and one BV pair that played for us. Fluttering around each other doing aerials. It was a beautiful day. We had about 40 or so out at five locations. Also, stopped at Brooks Overlook and observed that pair of eagles twice... going to and returning from Bluestone. Saw one on the nest with two eggs and other adult perched in a nearby sycamore. Just lovely.
Hope everyone is having a great day. It's beautiful outside!! woohoooo
Oh, lots of black gulls all day, too, on the Bluestone.
we are off with the dogs to Pretty Boy watershed! Steve may pee himself he is so excited to be going somewhere! Hope to see SOMETHING interesting! BBL!
Linda, sure hope you feel better. SRPING IS HERE!!!
Nice report Susan!
BBL
Lynne, glad you and Steve are getting OUT. Best therapy ever!!!
SUSAN and GRANNYBLT, what beautiful days you two had seeing all those gorgeous birds, and Eagles! Would love to see a Golden someday, Susan.
LINDA, hope you get some rest today and start feeling better. Big HUGS!
SANDI, sorry you were the hydrant today. Bummer. Still, you got some exercise.
LYNNE2, have a great outting. Can't wait to hear about it.
Lori, hope to go on a peregrine count soon. I haven't seen peregrines in the wild so it will be very educational for me. Always meet such nice folks, too. Bonus!
Morning all!
Here at Michaels..just ate a nice big brunch....heading home this afternoon..
Had a nice dinner next to the water last night..good food and good company. Finally got to meet LAURA's parents and brother..
hope everyone is doing well...catch up with ya later
Good afternoon!
Laurel and Joseph just left. Jack cooked a big breakfast for them and I did not eat a bite. They had very cheesy omelets, bacon, and biscuits. I ate a scrambled egg, a small scone, and a banana. Aren't I virtuous! :)
Lynne, that earth quake was very close, but, no, did not feel a thing. We were all asleep. Oh, Joseph may have been up and watching TV.
Linda, so very sorry you have been so sick. Do hope those antibiotics do the trick. This is your busy time of the year, too. Get well, Girl!!!
BWE is back. I'm seeing only two bobbleheads.
Susan, I've been watching too and see the same as you. Nothing is mentioned on the site yet so maybe they're holding their breath and wishing for the best.
Home from the grocery store. Now off to the eagle nest to see if we can catch any action there! Fingers crossed!
Have fun, Sandi!!
Yes, two at BWE. Bet she's covered up #3.
A very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you, Loretta.
Bird count for this afternoon:
2 great blue herons ( 1 perched in a tree, 1 in flight)
2 coots
1 loon
6 hooded mergansers (sp?)
and ...
ONE ADULT BALD EAGLE!!!!
When we got to the pier where we sit to watch the nest, we didn't see anything so we decided to walk along the shore to a point where a fellow teacher told me there is another nest. When we got to the point, I heard eagle calls - behind me - back where the first nest was!
Hurried back to the nest and, sure enough, there was a big, beautiful bald eagle standing on the side of the nest. It took off shortly after we got back to the pier. We waited another 20 minutes to see if it would return but it didn't. I'm wondering now if it was a parent switch and we just couldn't see the parent in the nest?
So that tells me the nest is active and makes me think there are either eggs or small chicks in it. We'll go back again next weekend.
I see the BWE chicks enjoying the sunshine. Not as warm as I thought it was supposed to get today, at least not right on the water where we were.
winds a WHISTling in the cam as I walked in the door I can just imaigine what the neighbors thought with my windows open Was loud forgot to turn down the sound when I left OOPS I heard it as I walked to the door
HEELLO HOME FOR WORK

LYNNE1 I sort of got the same message about a week ago and they said I had a virus and I could download McGafee or what ever it was security I think just a scam also I did report it to facebook They had locked me out of FB till I ran the scan and off course I uninstalled it after

From the Blackwater Facebook page:
Friends of Blackwater NWR Patti: I do think we lost the youngest on Saturday. The cam just came back up, so I'm waiting on confirmation. But we did not see him in the last three feedings.

Right Judy. I assumed #3 had been covered. When Pa came in, he stood around the nest a little bit and then went at the nest floor at around 5:30 and dug a hole. I swear he dug in there to see. Hadn't seen that before. See the hole when he stands up.
SHEP is still eating she must have left him more that what I saw
Now he is sunggling down on eggberts
