Egbok | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 06:32 pm     Half, thanks for Eagles 101, Part Two. I've learned so much from this thread. I've also enjoyed all the eagle stories too. |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 06:34 pm     Thanks Half! That was great. I keep trying to get in over at the other site, and it seems to be down again. I wonder if "we" have anything to do with that.. Considering the number of us who are probably checking it out that weren't going there before. Approx 2½ more hours until I can get something else done.. (sundown..LOL) |
Halfunit | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 06:49 pm     Good MGA and all... keep me posted if things should progress - the boys just stopped by and told me that Unit is being transported to the ER after hurting his ankle in a foot chase. I'm on my way over to keep him company. And yes, they caught the bad guy! Back to eagles! |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 06:52 pm     How can we get this to be more sharp?
 |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 06:54 pm     Half... So sorry about Unit.. Give him TVCH hugs from us!! |

Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:25 pm     From EagleCam HQ!! OK, everyone.....NOW I REALLY DO HAVE GOOD NEWS!!!! There is an eaglet hatching! We been watching as Star gets up, the egg is still attached to the chick on each side but it's moving!!!!!! We could see it!!!!!! Now on to other hurdles..... food, it's strength and overall health!! **edit** Woo-hoo! I was so excited I wanted to post right away.. |
Max | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:28 pm     WHee! I thought that was what I saw earlier today!!!!! |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:30 pm     Third bird in background..... |
Whoami | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:31 pm     Am I missing something when you say you can see movement? Is there a live video? I thought it was just screen caps??? But, Whoo Hoo anyway! How cool is this? And {{{Unit}}}. Hope everything is okay. |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:34 pm     Who.. The cam refreshes every 10 sec, but you can tell that the egg has moved if you are watching it nonstop..LOL |
Grannyg | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:34 pm     Who, this is the link Dra posted back.......... Eagle Cam |
Grannyg | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:37 pm     Looks like she is not really laying on top of them the way she has been. She is putting her chest on them instead of her belly!! Don't you think? |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:47 pm     Not sure Granny.. I wonder if that is another Eagle that is circling? Star seems like she keeps looking out/around at something. I just happened to look up and catch that other bird in the picture above. |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:51 pm     Has anyone from here posted on the other board? I was thinking of doing it, but haven't yet. I just read that someone else saw the bird and was thinking what I'm thinking.. I feel guilty even thinking of posting somewhere else..LOL |
Whoami | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:52 pm     Cool! Thank you Granny! |
Max | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 07:59 pm     On the official site, there was a journal entry from March noting that a young eagle (still some spots on the tailfeathers) had been hanging around. Maybe that's the bird in the background on MGA's screen cap. |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 08:05 pm     Man the light is perfect to see now.. I wish she would move...... |
Whit4you | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 08:10 pm     She knows we are watching... |
Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 08:12 pm     LOL Whit.. |
Lucy | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 08:33 pm     What a day!! She doesn't seem to be moving much now that we have a clear picture. I think she needs to go get a bite to eat!! Thanks for all the great info and pics tonight. Half, hope hubby is feeling ok. Oh, she just got up....
 |
Halfunit | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 08:42 pm     I'm back! Thanks for keeping watch (like you guys could pry yourselves away during daylight!). Unit sprained a ligament on the top right side of his right foot. The ER doc said he had to be off work for four weeks.... uh... I don't think so! My house will be a wreck, lol. He received crutches but will probably abandon them in a matter of days. Thanks for the kind thoughts - I passed them on to Unit and he said, "Tell them thank you!" Now, back to our birds! Ed. - and Granny, I do believe she is sitting differently. Almost using her wings as support as to not put as much weight down on her babes. |
Juju2bigdog | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 08:46 pm     Look at this!!!

Mygetaway | Friday, May 23, 2003 - 08:53 pm     I wonder if this is egg #1, or egg #2? |
