:hello:

Cool that you got to see another peregrine falcon family Linda.
Lovely pics of them & the Pearl nest eaglets.
I hope they eventually upload a vid of the two cubs playing in the water from last night's bear update. That looked pretty cute.

Nice s'caps from the Black Eagle nest & LaFarge Judy.

Good to hear the root canal work went well elle.

Thanks for the Bluebird hatchlets new and s'cap Iona.

Isis seems to be getting back to her old self Gord.
I hope she continues to heal and won't need the surgery.
Cute pics of the bunny & your garden. Cool that you saw an Osprey catching a fish.
We are within the diking system here so will not get any of the flooding. As of now there are approximately 200 homes outside the dikes that are on evacuation alert.
Sorry about the ugly temperatures there. I'm not complaining about it being in the 50's & 60's here.

A late evening meal delivery in Estonia for 3 hungry osprey chicks.

woooooohoooooooo to 3 now Scott!!!


more later........for now {{{{{{{SS}}}}}}} baby asked me to say 'welcome home' to you just now



then he ate a chipmunk and went to sleep in peace

Sue, Starr and Vinny

Annie, welcome home and glad you had good luck, and fun too.

Lori, we are getting heat wave too, wed. and thurs. 95 to 100, ugh! :ds: ran out and got a hair trim, wanted to ask her to shave it all off, but i do work with the elderly so thought better of it. will be humid too here, can't take that kind of heat, or any kind, want to go to Alaska. oh, love the cute baby pics, aweee. where was he then?
and yeah, we can do it, stay away from those "clicks" . cute video of the action on the rooftop

Scott, yes, way too little time for all our likes, the new BB update cute and interesting, like the cubs pics and the water playing picture especially. and the mystery of June in Donnas territory goes on. wowee on 3 chickies now, cool, lotta work though, get going dad osprey! lousy for those people affected by the floooding trouble, glad you're not in that, sad for them. wishing i had your temps stored away for the next 2 days, love 60"s. :mrgreen:

Nancy, what time in the morning do i have to check until it goes dark??? my eyes take some time a few coffees to come unglued! late morning would work, like 1159 am. :lol:

Gord aka Rusty, good to see you back, love the garden and think it's filled in "just right". :thumrht: very pretty. glad Isis is better, fingers crossed she will stay that way, and out of trouble. yep, curfew it was, and i went with them and kept them moving quickly, away from the fence! and yes Ea good for us eagle peeps, and clickaholics too i guess!

Linda, hooray for the eaglet branching, its a start. and the falcon visit sounds wonderful, and wow! new set of falcons, 4 again, exciting and glad you were at right place at right time, beautiful pics, all of them, but i have to say i just LOVE that tree and rocks one! so beautiful. and ty for the explanation about the lost one, darn cars, so bad for so much wildlife.

Elle, glad the first "trip" went so wonderfully, sounds like you are really enjoying this work. glad the Halcyon is helping though, seriously, can be a painful ordeal. hope todays apt. went just as well. had periodontal (sp?) care yrs. ago and will never ever forget that pain, did i say ever!!!

Judy, wishing you and Gary the best with outcome with the interview, it sounds like it went really well. i am saying special prayer for you to get it. love your scaps of the eaglets from all the nests.

Iona, the bluebirds sure are tiny, but i imagine they are cute and precious, will see them when they are a bit bigger. looks like mostly eyes now for me ty for keeping us updated too.

Candy, hope you are feeling better by now.

Anna, Tx, Elle, Laurie, Iona, and everyone else

have a few pics of the 3 bears at WCV, 2 yearlings and a little cub playing around this morning.

I was overly optomistic {{{{{{{{{Nesties}}}}}}}}}} thinking I could come back and do a full red, not going to be I'm afraid. It's sooo not good here and 2 more days to go before the 'apparent' break. I'm holding off on poisons till I know I'm done for the day here. They'll be in there by midnight

I was shocked by that real estate ad for your place Judy! here's lakefront in town for a 3rd that price. Unreal

it's actually a block up a hill from the lake edge but there's no houses between it and the lake. You'd have a heck of a climb down and back up to it though without driving around to the shoreline

I found it funny Scott that the update said it was hard to get pics of the playing cubs when I thought the shots were some of the best yet!

Doreen baby was in the nest standing at the back door on the ramp. She's already ate a munk and is standing on another in the bowl for later. Don't know where the boys are... looove those bears too!



thanks for all the great posts today everybody and wooohoooo to pts Grody!!!

Niters all, better days ahead (I hope) mantles for all with extra for who need them

I am going to do a " Naoma" here.

Slick....."i may be able to squeeze a bit out....., like a Tex Ketcup"


I got it from Kathy and passed it on........


Gord.... sprinkle baking soda on the skunk spots.......vac it up hours later, smell gone. A vinegar/water spritz mixture works well, too.

All Around!

Sweet pics of baby RT Lori.
When I turned on the osprey cam yesterday there was half an egg shell and a struggling new osprey being squeezed by it's siblings. The oldest was laying a severe beating on #2 which wasn't pleasant to watch. An adult landed and the beating continued until the parent finally sat on them.
Home prices are grossly inflated in Vancouver because they're out of room. Eventually it will all be damned condos.
Nice looking little place near the lake.
Hope tomorrow's a better "pain" day for you.

You should be able to check the osprey cam at almost any hour Doreen.
They have 19 daylight hours at this time of the year.
Nice s'caps of the 3 little bears at WVC.

Nope, you've still been watching the RT cam for too long Naoma.

'Afternoon dear Nesties

I'm having trouble getting back in the swing of things...up too late and tired. I would love to
have crawled back in bed this morning and a nap woulda been nice...not an option though...maybe
early to bed....maybe.

A little from now and then......

Enjoyed the video Lori....hard to see them all grown up but still, so good to see them strong and healthy. The roof hop-fly was cute; looked like h/s was having a good time. Sorry it's going to be so hot. It was 107° when we came home Sunday!

Elle, Nothing like meds to give you "halcyon days", lol (pun intended). Seriously, really glad you got through it and rested. Hoping today's procedure went just as smoothly.

Rose, Loved seeing adorable Rachel and my goodness, her hair is really growing. It's beautiful.

Scott, Chase is just soooo cute. Clearly Buddy likes watching and being with him. Ahhh dogs and kids.....the best!

Judy, Thank you for the s'cap of Echo and Foxy; that was really sweet. Hoping you and Gary get the job!

Thank you Nanc; it is always feels good to get back with you all.

Texie, What a cutie the baby donk!

Linda, I love the photos of the Falcons and what a thrill to see the eaglet branched. A thrill to see all the families reach this point!

Gordie, So cute the bunny and I am relieved to hear Isis is recovering so well. A mouse again? She just thought you could use some exercise. Glad you're about rid of the skunk stink. Your little garden looks really nice with the added plants. Ha! Bart's the man!!

Scott, Those osprey chicks are soooooo cute.

OMG Lori, Heart meltdown when I see that face! How can they be so precious!!. Grrrreat s'caps. Thank you for the sweet way to welcome me back.
Hope your meds have helped with your pain today GF.

:hello: Iona & Doreen!

(((((((((((Nanc))))))))))

((((((((((((((Susie & Steve))))))))))

((((((((((((Starr & Vin))))))))) So sorry about his fall and I hope he's recovered with
no ill effects from it.

Have a Great NIght Everyone

I know but thats cheap for a house in Vancouver Lori but I had to take it out because I felt ill at ease having it in here...anyway its on Vancouvers multiple listing web page thats enough. The houses are so high out here because the Chinese from mainland China come over and buy them up like crazy ...tear them down and build big monster homes...the list price is really for the property not the house as the house is only $26000 assessment by the Gov't the land is worth over a million.

Thought you'd like that scape Annie it was so cute I was watching the close up cam for a moment so I could get a scape or two Lets of the WR nest and right before I took the scape ma WR was on the nest but brought no food so the one on the right of the nest I really don't know them apart was checking ma out to see if she had brought in any food and when she tried to fly out the Let grabbed her leg just above her talon and ma just about did a header into the abliss but caught herself fast and flew out. so funny to watch what bad bass's the WR Lets are :lol:

Cute critter cam scapes Doreen of the two bear cubs...bet you miss NX like I do GF oh well there always good old pa Norfolk and his new squeeze DT

fledge time for all birds

Texas now waiting for the next round all this to get a job
