Tuesday

We are watching the goings on at the nest.  If an egg was laid this AM, the fact that there has been no incubation for this many hours is not a good sign for this particular egg (if there is one).



We'll be preparing an update and will continue to watch.

New thread.

Love and Light to you MARGY.
Thank you for posting.
Rest well dear friend.

stronghunter said...

Good night, Margy.

Have a fun trip, Paula.

Two students were shot outside the gym at Frederick High School. Lockdown in the cafeteria at present.

Hoda said...

SHIRLEY I am now worried. Is this where Hunter has to go to school? God I hope I am just having a senior moment and am confused. Awful about the shooting

stronghunter said...

Dear Hoda,

You are so kind and so concerned about the unfortunate things going in the world. Please remember there are lots of good things too. And you are responsible for many of the good things.

I am going to say SED and head upstairs up now. Some mornings it is hard to get myself out of bed to get Hunter off to school.

stronghunter said...

No, Frederick is in Maryland. We live in Virginia. I think it's near Jo, but I am sure police are getting things under control there.

Hoda said...

Good night SHIRLEY.
Let me know tomorrow if this school where the shooting took place is the same school where Hunter is going to go. Please.

stronghunter said...

Easy to get confused.

Frederick is in Maryland.

Fredericksburg is in Virginia.

(There's also Fredericksburg, Texas...Lolly goes there sometimes.)

Janet said...

about ready for bed, but just got home a short bit ago.

Chelsea bought a new washer & dryer today. (her old set was 10+ years old) her old set was showing definite signs of wear and tear and giving out. with 3 kiddos, she needs that equipment. she bought a beautiful new set...floor model, on sale. we went and had dinner with them and then picked up the set for her and tom and chris brought it in the house.

was so much fun to see my gkids. such sweet precious little people. Amelia was explaining all about "skylanders" to me (I'm still like ??????? okay. its a game with figurines) and jack was having a bad day, so I gave him some extra tlc and lorelei, well what can I say about that little stinkerbutt. she is so cute.

beautiful day. thankful for all of it.

sweet dreams to all. dreaming of eagle eggs.................

Lolly said...

Hoda, can understand your desire to get outside and enjoy nature, away from such bad news. I love it when we are on trips and do not watch the news nor read new après!

We live semi rural. Have seen fox but never heard them for real! Have heard plenty of coyotes! Of corse we have bunnies and armadillos. Have had goats, horses and cows escaping and running across our yard. Once we had a roadrunner in our yard. He ran straight up a tree, caught a lizard, and he then proceeded to the paved road to kill the lizard. And, of corse, we had a hawk nest in our yard for several years. We saw 10 babies fed, and fledge. That's where we learned all about poop shoots.

Still no word from Andy?

Jack had his appointment. He still has many questions. Insurance will pay some. Still expensive but something he really needs to do. Happy he is taking this step. He is completely deaf in one ear from an accident as a child. Now the other ear is bad. It is really sort of funny sometimes when he repeats back to me what he thought he heard.

Time for shower and bed. Dr appointment in the morning. Yearly check up.

Night all! SED

Hoda said...

Good night.
God Bless us all.

Sandi said...

Goodorming my eagle friends.

Got a horrible night's sleep - too many reasons to list. But it should make for an interesting day with the kiddos. :(

My Honda was returned last night. Instead of just servicing it, they washed the outside and cleaned the inside as well!! Great customer service!

Have agreat day all! I'm with Jo, thinking maybe an egg today!

WVJerry said...

It's faint but looks like eagle in nest.

WVJerry said...

Good morning. Just saw two eagles in nest both gone now.

Judie said...

Good morning.

MT nest.

Wishing everyone a wonderful day.

Mema Jo said...

Good morning to all ♥

Windy again today and also again today is an MT nest this morning.

I'll be back after coffee.... ♥

stronghunter said...

Good morning,

WINDY here too.

Waiting a bit to get over an ocular migraine.

BBL.

Mema Jo said...


holy hannah

intruder in our nest

our eagle just flew out but

juvie is still there

Lynne2 said...

OMG!! there's a juvie in the nest!

WVJerry said...

I wondered what was in nest Jo.

Lynne2 said...

oh he's a beauty! I just KNOW it's one of our previous babies!!

Lynne2 said...

looking up at something/someone

Mema Jo said...

You think about 3 yrs old

Head feathers are turning

Little one looks like he finally
found his home/nest

Yesterday belle and Shep were both squawking - I bet this little one is the reason.

stronghunter said...

Yes. Just sitting there. How old do you all think? Maybe 2-3 years or so?

stronghunter said...

Oh, I see Jo has already answered this.

stronghunter said...

Okay. Adult there also. Not attacking. Interesting.

Lynne2 said...

WOW

stronghunter said...

Okay, now says get out of here.

Juvie left and came back.

stronghunter said...

That must be one of the offspring.

Lynne2 said...

I cannot believe this!

Lynne2 said...

Juvie back, adult out!

stronghunter said...

Adult left. Juvie still there.

stronghunter said...

Very interesting.

Lolly said...

OMG! Watching the nest. I can not believe how the adult was just tolerating the juvie. Then chased it off, but now it is back. Adult flew off! What the heck is going on.

Yes, I feel like it is one of our babies.

Oh, and good morning!

Lynne2 said...

this is amazing!

stronghunter said...

Good morning, Lolly. Interesting bit of eagle drama.

Mema Jo said...

He really doesn't want to leave
It is so cold and windy that his old nest really feels good and secure

I hope someone is getting this on video...

stronghunter said...

Not sure which adult that was...Belle or Shep.

stronghunter said...

Me too, Jo.

Lolly said...

Just read back over all the comments. Glad there is a lot watching. I am watching on my ipad, but when doing that can not comment. Jack said reboot my laptop, I did but it still does not work the cam longer than a few seconds or minutes. But, I can blog on the laptop and watch the ipad!

Need to leave shortly for my doctors appointment.

See juvie still stitting there. Hun....you gotts go! Sorry!

stronghunter said...

Wonder if Belle and Shep are sitting above watching.

Mema Jo said...

You think if they give him a fish he will leave? lol

stronghunter said...

They might need to put the fish somewhere besides in the nest.

Lolly said...

Who shall we say this is? Who did we raise 2 or 3 years ago? LOL

stronghunter said...

Would be nice to know if this is indeed one of their offspring.

Lolly said...

I would say 3, don't you think?

stronghunter said...

I've been trying to remember too, Lolly.

stronghunter said...

Three sounds good to me.

stronghunter said...

Really windy there.

WVJerry said...

Got to leave for work. I have been watching off and on for a few hours. I was surprised when I saw the juvie...thought it was something else. I guess this is not threatening in any way. Doesn't want to leave like Jo said...maybe he is just hungry.

Lolly said...

I think he is watching Belle and Shep. He keeps turning his head.

stronghunter said...

I think you are probably right, Lolly. He/She seems to be watching something.

Lolly said...

I thought he was about to poof a minute ago, but he continues to sit. Why aren't they chasing him away? They know he is offspring?

stronghunter said...

Good questions, Lolly.

Lolly said...

Maybe when he is "married" he will finally leave the nest. lol

stronghunter said...

Looks too young to be competition for either of our adults.

Kay said...

Good Surprising Morning Eagle Buds!!!

What a sight to open to and I see others have sighted this juvie before me. Didn't we name an eaglet Hedgie for LYNN? Could this be that dear bird paying a call?

Judie said...

Interesting events at the nest.

Sent a second email to Andy.

Hope Shirley's headache skeedaddles quickly.

stronghunter said...

So, do Belle and Shep have a basement room for a boomerang child?

Lolly said...

Gotta go! Want to eat a bite before doctor appointment.

Hate to leave! Keep up a commentary so I will know what happends! :)

Kay said...

Belle and Shep may be tolerant due to recognized kinship, but that won't last long as they prepare for serious parenting!

Lolly said...

Hedgie! I bet this is Hedgie! You are right, Kay.

stronghunter said...

I am fine now, Judie. No headache, was just seeing rainbow colors. Hard to explain.

Judie said...

Safe travels and good fishing, Paula.

stronghunter said...

I drank a sports drink. Have heard that it helps, and I think it might.

Mema Jo said...

Sent pic to Steve

stronghunter said...

Would like to hear from Andy today.

Mema Jo said...

Jerry if you go by the nest
Holler at us if Belle & Shep are up in the attic

If they went somewhere Maybe the Juvie is just Nest Sitting

Kay said...

SANDI, the new Freyja avatar is adorable! Glad you got your vehicle back and clean, too! Hope you can make up for that bad nights sleep tonight!

Do you think he/she is thinking, "hey, I used to sit right here and wait for food, aren't they going to come through with some now?"

Happy travels and "hunting", PAULA!

Mema Jo said...

Deb Stecyk is recording

WHoo Hoo Deb

Lolly said...

Have decided to forgo eating until after the appointment...drinking coffee instead. This is too interesting so will watch a little longer.

stronghunter said...

Would be very interesting if Belle and Shep are sitting above watching. I think they probably are. At least one of them knows the Juvie is there.

JudyEddy said...

Hello and still good morning eagle buds Had storms on and off last night we had over TWO inches of rain Power must have been off also computer was down this am so now I am up and running again Such a pretty bird in teh nest also

stronghunter said...

Hi Judy. :)

Kay said...

"What the heck is going one", LOLLY asked. What is going on is another wonderful chance for us to observe Nature--Wildlife--which is full of surprises and wonderment! Saying thanks again for the cam and to STEVE for giving us a blog with which to watch amazing things unfold!!!

So glad the nest didn't get an Ohio snowfall spillover. We have another couple of inches on the ground today.

Have to get set for the heating/ac co. tech to arrive for a routine check up of the system.

Will be lurking and will be praying for all in need!!!

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

JudyEddy said...

DEB is probably working I wonder if Teri is doing a video

sure is a pretty little thing and I also concur maybe a offspring of theirs sure wish I had seen the adult in Did ANYONE get a snip of that???

Lynne2 said...

this is a hoot! Wish clients would stop coming in and calling so I can watch in PEACE!! LOL!

Mema Jo said...

I also like Judie have sent a second email - I gave her the link to our blog just in case!

Lynne2 said...

I believe this is a third year juvie.

JudyEddy said...

I got so much to do much I can't keep my self away from the juvie watching

YEAH JO that Deb is recording must be day off she had mentioned that work got in her way the other day with the egg episode wasn't able to record because of work

Lolly said...

Lynne! I think you booted me off with "conflicting post!" LOL

As I was trying to say....juvie was rearranging the flugg and Belle will not like that!

Lolly said...

Have had laptop cam up 6 minutes now!

Lolly said...

Really have to leave now!

Later, Gators!

stronghunter said...

Would love to hear from someone at NCTC . . . are Belle and Shep sitting in the attic?

JudyEddy said...

been in the nest almost a hour now

Sure wish I lived up there I would drive to see if the attic has someone in it

stronghunter said...

Has been almost an hour since Jo reported that we've got a visitor in the nest.

Mema Jo said...

I'm hoping that Jerry's route of travel to work passes by the nest

If it is and he sees the adults up in the attic he will holler at us.

I haven't had any response from Steve yet

Mema Jo said...

He has been there one hour
Still digging around in the flugg

Mema Jo said...

HAVE SOUND ON - SO WINDY
WHOA I TURNED IT OFF

This kid is not going to budge unless
he is forced to do so!

We humans (me) must not feel sorry for him when he is put out of the nest.. :(



Mema Jo said...


Email from Steve says:

We've been watching !

stronghunter said...

That's good.

stronghunter said...

This kid looks quite comfortable. Settled in.

JudyEddy said...

almost blends in with the nest

Lynne2 said...

wish we could see what they can see!

Mema Jo said...

I sent the email back and asked

if they could sight the adults up

in the tree......

Mema Jo said...

Lynne2 I'm sure they are just
watching their streaming video inside of NCTC on the monitor.

Mema Jo said...


HaHaHa

I am sitting in my momma's Egg Cup

Mema Jo said...


HaHaHa

I am sitting in my momma's Egg Cup

Mema Jo said...

Stuttered but it was worth saying twice

stronghunter said...

:)

JudyEddy said...

WHO EVER lives closest to the nest need to go report back to us LOL

JudyEddy said...

POOF

stronghunter said...

Juvie poofed.

JudyEddy said...

the excitement is over for the present time

Judie said...

Bizarre nest day. Perhaps Belle and Shep have opened an Eagle B&B.

Maybe Jerry can check on his way past to see if there is a sign:

Belle and Shep
Riverview B&B
Children Welcome

Have done multiple searches. Andy's phone number is apparently unpublished. Maybe she will respond to the emails.

stronghunter said...

I don't think I have seen a phone number for Andy. I don't even recall seeing an address.

Mema Jo said...

Poof - 11:31am Juvie has left the nest all on his own......... Will he return??? Good question.

Mema Jo said...

ANDY: Lolly gave Kay the phone number the other day.
I have an address but won't put it here.

Kay said...

Aw, came by just in time to see the juvie poof. Will be interesting to watch for the next step in the family saga!

JUDIE, I have ANDY's cell phone number as per LOLLY and will e-mail it to you. I did that same search and found their home in Anaheim, but with an unpublished number. This is getting be be quite concerning. Check your mail in a few....

stronghunter said...

I hope Andy does respond soon.

Mema Jo said...

Hopefully we can record on here the return of Belle and/or Shep.

DanaMo said...

OMGosh turned on the nest and saw the goings on...tried to jump on here to see what everyone was saying, but the blog is blocked finally getting on with my "hotspot" from my phone!!!

stronghunter said...

Yes, Jo. I would like to see the adults return.

stronghunter said...

Hi Dana,

Good to see you here.

Hoda said...

OK then!
Back to our regularly scheduled program!
That Juvie did not look healthy to me!
Anyone else?

Thank you for the Heads up JO

Enjoy the rest of the day,

Mema Jo said...

I have sent you email JUDIE
with Andy's street address.

DanaMo said...

I say push him out of the nest! These darn kids....LOL! Kidding, I bawled like a baby when Andrew left...yes, Andrew moved out. Facebookers know this, he drove to CA after Christmas. Annemarie rode across the country with him and flew back by herself.
Andrew is out there with "girlfriend" and they both plan to move east after she finishes school. He finished his degree (albeit only an AA) and didn't know what to do with himself until she finished...so off he went.

stronghunter said...

Good that he has his AA, Dana. He is part-way to a 4 year degree.

DanaMo said...

I think the Juvie looked healthy, just disheveled from the wind. Just MHO.

Mema Jo said...


Last 5 minutes was recorded by Terri
from Eagle Cam.......

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIO5_tbInaE

Sound is deafening with the wind BUT about 1 minute before he flies out of there see if you hear something from up in the attic.

Mema Jo said...

Deb is editing that 1.5 hr long visit.


I lost my Hancock sign on - guess I will need to guess it

Mema Jo said...

Thanks for the update on Andrew, Dana
#1 Prayers for you dad - is he out of the hospital? (I'm behind the times)

#2 Congratulations on Annemarie
getting her driver's license.

Take care an enjoy visiting all those pups.

Mema Jo said...

LUNCH

BBL

Keep an eye on the nest for the return of our Royal Couple......
Thx

Judie said...

Spoke with Andy. She said she will stop by and apologizes for causing concern.

Mema Jo said...

R E L I E F ♥ Andy is good

Thank you Judie

JudyEddy said...

Good to hear you heard from her JUDIE

JudyEddy said...

Live Eagle Cam also posted picture of the adult in the nest with the juvie Picture of Adult with juvie

DanaMo said...

Car shopping this weekend, again...for Annemarie. Wishing Monte would have bought the Jeep from Sandi!

Dad is still in the hospital. Just to catch everyone up. He was extremely weak on Monday and couldn't get to his dr. appt. Ended up going to hosp. by ambulance.
Turns out he was "empty" on blood. He had to have a transfusion. 4 units! His Hemaglobin was 3.9! The hospital says they never get anyone that low!
He is on the road to recovery and they are doing test to see if they can find where he is bleeding from if anywhere. If they find nothing it just means that his system is having a hard time from all the chemo. (even though he hasn't had it for a year). He will be starting again. The tumors have grown slightly.

thanks for asking, Jo.

Hoda said...

Thank you JUDIE.

JudyEddy said...

JudyEddy said...

Nice seeing them after this am ordeal

JudyEddy said...

DanaMo said...

Nice and sunny, but really cold!!!

Sandi said...

Hi all. Steve has given us a new thread on this crazy nest day!

New thread!

NEW THREAD!! C'MON OVER!

JudyEddy said...

the eagle are swaying in the winds

JudyEddy said...

calling OUT

Lolly said...

NEW THREAD!!

Ms Bookworm said...

Knock, knock!

May I come in? Wouldn't be surprised if you all hit me with your eagle canes for causing you such concern! I am so sorry to worry all of you! I apologize!! Ken and I and Emma are all OK. We have just been VERY busy! We had a bit of a worry with Emma when she had to get her rabies vaccine, too. She tends to get an allergic reaction to other vaccines, so had to get a Benadryl and a steroid shot before the vaccine, and a week's worth of homotoxicology therapy to rid her body of toxins from the vaccine. She's come through it OK, and is her old self again!

I truly am sorry to worry all of you! I have had more work to do for the doctor I transcribe for, and Ken has been spending more time on the computer. He has to search for a job in order for our credit card insurance to continue to pay 3 or 4 of our credit card payments since he got laid off of his job last year. The end of this month he will be able to apply again for extended unemployment benefits. He may or may not be approved. Tomorrow is the 1 year anniversary of his being "laid off." We're meeting his former work buddy, Chuck, who got laid off the same day, for breakfast tomorrow--so we can
celebrate. Oh--and please say a few prayers for Ken's attorneys.
They are in their "discovery" phase, trying to get Ken's personnel files from his former employer. We suspect that the personnel dept. may pull and shred any of his papers that would not be to their advantage, and there's 48 years worth of stuff there. Ken can't possibly remember everything from that big a chunk of time, so what is there is pretty important. He didn't bring home a copy of every yearly review either, and they wouldn't let him return to his desk when they escorted him out of the building.
Grrrr! Well, enough said.

Yikes!! A juvie at the nest! Could it be that Hedgie (our Lynn) is visiting?! So interesting that Belle & Shep aren't really chasing it off. I wonder how often this happens.

....Golly! Here is where I got interrupted by the City shutting off our power so they could "swap out" our electric meter!! Everything is back on now. I wonder why they swapped out our meter, though. They changed us to their new "smart" meter a couple of years ago. Oh, well.

Once again, let me apologize for worrying all of you!! I've set an alarm on my phone to remind me to check in with you every day!
I'm trying to read back and get caught up on what's happening, too. You all have been included in my prayers, and I hope everyone is doing well. Right now I need to get back to work, so I'll say goodbye for now. I hope to get back here tonight. Have a great day, everyone! Oh, and THANK YOU, Judie, for calling me this morning! It was great to talk to you! I ♥ us!!!
