Y'all will be happy to know that Star and Mate are still hanging out at the nest daily.

On a lark, I checked eaglecam today. http://www.wa.gov/wdfw/wildwatch/eaglecam/kent.html Star and Mate are STILL at the nest. Star is sitting in the nest right now, just as though she has eggs in there. Really weird. They did not do this last year. Everybody abandoned the nest after the babies flew. Puget Sound eaglecam is now shut down as the baby has flown and no eagles are using the nest. I think Star still using the nest and Mate still hanging around bodes well for next spring. Hmmmmmm, wonder if we should move pandacam over here, since the thread is nature cams and not eagle cams?

Maybe we should move pandacam over here? http://www.sandiegozoo.org/pandas/pandacam/index.html How many days have I been watching them? Just checked it out. Today is one week. I swear the baby has doubled in size in that time. It used to be a bit difficult finding him and distinguishing which direction he is pointing. Now he is easily found and looks just like a miniature panda. He resembles a toy panda right now.

I've been watching since day one when he was the size of a bean, so that is what we call him 'Bean'. Maybe I could find out the Chinese word for bean and submit it for his name. He just absolutely steals my heart away. And mama sure loves her baby. She is the greatest mother I've ever seen...bar none!

Agreed, Ophiliasgrandma. She is at it again right now, just loving the snot out of that baby. The other night when she cuddled him vigorously for hours and hours, I was almost alarmed, but now I can see that is what she does almost all the time she is not sleeping or feeding him. I think it is just amazing the way she picks him up in her arms all the time. I wouldn't expect an animal of that type to do that. I associate it with primate behavior.

Baby was by himself when I arrived at the pandacam after dinner tonight. He was so cute. He was on his back just kicking up a storm, just like a baby. I was going to snap a couple of shots to show the action but by the time I got the printscreen made, Momma was back in there and had snatched him up.
Bigdog said news of the baby panda was on CNN this morning, that he is doing fine and is expected to open his eyes any day now. I had no idea he didn't have his eyes open yet.

I just watched the clip of the last exam of the baby panda. It is just too cute. He is trying to move around with his front feet.

Baby Panda is getting so big! He just had another exam on Nov. 5th and his teeth are starting to come in. He is now over 8 pounds. http://www.sandiegozoo.org/pandas/pandacam/index.html

I'm hoping both eaglets survive, but I understand that rarely happens.

Moderators: How about switching the link you have now for this one: http://www.wdfw.wa.gov/wildwatch/eaglecam/index.html When you click on the link currently posted above for the Wildwatch cams, you get a message the site has moved. And how about putting pandacam into the vacant slot up there? http://www.wdfw.wa.gov/wildwatch/eaglecam/index.html

Juju, I think I corrected and changed everything in the chart above. This page was subject to the odd conversion the upgrade did when we moved to the new board so I had to completely rewrite the chart. Please let me know if something doesn't work correctly. Mod (22)

Good job, 22! Is there room to put pandacam in that last empty space? <Done>(22) As info, I just checked some of the pictures I saved from last year, and the eggs in the Kent, WA nest were laid around April 10.

Lookee Here!!!!!!!!! From the Kent, Wa, discussion board: Subject: Egg laying time is near! Name: EagleCam Headquarters Date Posted: Mar 14, 04 - 5:47 AM Email: eglldy@qwest Message: Over the past few days we've witnessed successful mating attempts. Star spent a good part of her day today calling out although the two of them have stayed together continually. Usually when only one is in the nest or tree, the other isn't far. They do have a few different roost trees now. We can't be positive but could that be a difference with another male? Lots of remodeling and stick rearranging has been taking up most of their time as well as an occasional shared breakfast, lunch, or dinner snack in the nest itself. Big grass clumps have been added daily and that "tucking and picking" you may have seen packs it down between the branches laid in the nest. This creates the "nest bowl" they will need to accommodate and protect the egg(s). As you might recall, in two consecutive years, March 20th was the first egg-laying date. Others were later, last year much later. It's 1:00am but I've started videotaping anyway... Star’s activity and characteristics are giving indications egg-laying time is very near! She’s restless yet at times motionless. The infrared will capture an event if it does happen and we’ll all be able to see at morning light. And Spirit is up above exactly where he should be! Ah yes, "Spirit" is the name we've chosen... The author of the comments above is the couple who live below the nest. Won't be long now. http://pub22.bravenet.com/forum/1841773557/ Link to nest is under WildWatch cams above.
