Happy Mother's Day!

Hope all mothers were able to enjoy their day. It was certainly a beautiful one here.

Jwnix: Glad you like my blue rhodo. I have a number of them in my small garden, some of which bloom at different times.

Here's another picture of a couple that are almost in full bloom. There is a Bridal Wreath Spirea at the far end.


Debs: Hope you are feeling better.

Judy/SJ: Always thinking of you and sending prayers and positive thoughts your way.

I'm able to get away tomorrow and have 'lunch with the bunch'. It will be the first lunch that I've been able to make in quite a while. I'll see some eagleholics that I've met before(like Marg, if she's able to come) and some that I've never met....like Vickie! I'll take my camera!

Oooooh Thanks for the good news Elle! 3 'lets in the Sidney nest again! WOW!! WTG Ma and Pa Sidney!!!

Oops, something else about that pin Jwnix- the RED lobster had the letters- 'Maine' on the spine! It was really clever! Yes, that RT Hawk nest sounds amazing!
Mmmm, thanks for the s'caps Bev!

Hi Chip! Mmmm lovely flowers!

Have a sound and peaceful sleep Sj and all Nesters!

NNSTDLBBBYA!!!

Good morning Nesters, will look back later.

Hoping you had a restful night Judy, SJ.

Yes, Chip I will see you at the luncheon. Beautiful weather we are having here.

I have time to send the doggies on their way - they came early to me because they knew I had a ferry to catch.


Have a great day everyone.

Hi Nesters... Had a beautiful day yesterday ..we all went to Church first..then we had brunch at the Yacht Club and we all went out for supper in the evening...it was a beautiful family day...dining room over looking the water at the Yacht Club....

Ed.. You are welcome.

Elle.. Thank you for sharing the news of Ma and Pa Sidney...

Hugs Bev....

The chicks were a lone for a bit this morning..they are so cute.

Mom is brooding the youngest chick. med.one is facing the wall ,Mom is keeping a eye on the oldest one standing so close to edge of nest..

Whew..Big Chick is down by Mom now.


That is all folks..

I hope everyone had a really nice Momma's Day yesterday.

I had a great day with my hubby and dogs. We started the day out with a walk around the golf course. Heleena is in heat, so she marked well over 10 times during the hour... and also saw a gazillion rabbits that she so wanted to chase. We had a really nice late breakfast at one of our favorite "outside" restaurants. Heleena always draws lots of attention we take her. The rest of the day was just ... lovely.

We have decided to buy a new vehicle... We are thinking about a Toyota Sequoia... upgrading from my 4runner. We may be breeding Heleena (not this cycle)and keeping a male... need a bigger vehicle for that... Good reason to do that... LOL

Debs... I do so hope you are feeling better... You are so missed.

Bev... Thanks for keeping things rolling all around the forum... as you always do. Where is that lighthouse... So gorgeous with the clouds and ocean...

Jwinx... Those red tails are so cute... but it sure gives me butterflies looking at the edge off that very small nest. I know what you mean about leaving plants for extended time... I would be so worried that they would be toast. I have misters on timers in and out of the greenhouse for just that... however... then I get concerned.. oh no... what if the battery dies, or a hose connector breaks off etc. LOL It has happened only when I was home..l thank goodness.

Judy sj... Sending you Light and Love.

Marg... So glad your foot feels better. What did the CT reveal? Did the doctor give you something to help with the pain? Thank you. So glad you love my flowers and doves. I will keep you all posted when I see hatchlings.

John...Did you spoil your wife on Momma's Day?

Kay... Welcome back from your 26 days of being totally spoiled. I can't wait for you to share some of your pictures. I saw that you had met up with JudyB and Bev. How very special... After getting to know someone on the forum and then getting to meet them in person must have been so exciting. I one day hope to meet some of you all in person too...

Elle... HI... How exciting that Ma Sidney has done the 3 chicklet clutch again. Hugs to Ma and Pa Sidney... I sure miss the cam... like all of us.,

Have a great day.

What a beautiful day for the lunch bunch to get together. Enjoy!

I did watch one of the RT chicks seeming to walk gingerly along the edge of that nest, and guessed it had been "taught" what to do.....however it was much closer to the edge than THIS MOM thought was reasonable!!! ;-)
---interesting how much the coloring changed in those chicks overnight!!!

---I do have real issues with leaving my water turned on with timers attached....cannot stand the idea of it breaking somehow and wasting thousands of gallons of water ( and BTW Paying FOR all that wasted water).....

---Elle, more lovely pictures.....many thanks!!!
