RB, the giant panda in the San Diego zoo had a baby in August of last year, and it has been the absolute cutest thing watching it grow up.

Giant panda Mei Sheng (May-Shun) was born August 19, 2003 at 1:14 p.m. He is the first male to be delivered by mother Bai Yun as well as the second cub to be born at the San Diego Zoo. Bai Yun's first cub is Hua Mei, who was born in August 1999. Meaning "born in the USA" and "beautiful life," Mei Sheng has become an instant favorite of panda lovers worldwide, as they have followed his progress from his first week via the Panda Cam.

I had been concerned in recent weeks because I had not seen the baby whenever I checked the pandacam. The other day I noticed they had put this explanation on the pandacam webpage:

MEI SHENG UPDATE: Mei Sheng has reached the age where young pandas spend a lot of time hiding in trees (probably a mechanism to protect them from predators). This makes him difficult to see on Panda Cam. He often spends the night outside in the trees and since we do not have artifical lighting in this environment you will be unable to see anything but a black screen when this occurs.

I finally saw both mother and baby today, although I was unable to get a screenshot of both of them in the same camera range. Here is a composite picture I made so you can see how big the baby is now in relation to the mother.

Juju....the little guy is gorgeous...now if we could just get him in to a kilt...lol ;)

These bears are just beautiful but the fur is so amazing...they just don't 'seem' real to me. Kinda like how I feel about peacocks...they are so beautiful, they don't seem real! :-)

Lol, the eaglets are cute, MGA. Eagles are awesome birds. I can see why the Native Americans incorporated them into their lives.

"It" was looking directly at the camera, then moved as I clicked, of course. Look how big one of the Kent eaglet's is now.

This was the best picture I could get this morning of the Kent, WA eagles. I had to look a long time to make sure that was one of the babies, and not an adult with his head down. Looks like the bigger one has feathers all over now. He does have his head down in this photo, but again, this was the best pic I could get.

The second baby is in the foreground of the picture. That is his head you can see.

Oh my, MGA!! You got a great shot of the Kent eagles. Now, from when I watched them two years ago, once they started trying to flap their wings, it wasn't too long before they flew the nest. It was WAY faster than I thought it would be. We are probably looking at less than a month left in the nest.
