BBL

I haven't been on here much recently with friends staying for almost a week now. I'm in this morning to find much fussing, Jewel up and "tending" to them. At least 2 fusser noises. My goodness they are loud!!! She's in there with her snout making sucking like noises, tending to their needs. Now 1 nursing motor sound, one still slightly fussing.

ETA 13:01 Finally 2 nursing motors are running.
ETA again 13:19 Silence for the past few minutes.

Evening Bear Pals

Macdoum, Stim Sorry I have not had much time to visit this week lots going on at home and in the nest. Thank you for your updates I am so glad to hear the Momma and the cubbies are doing well.

1145 pm
All is quiet in the den except we can hear
one cubbie is nursing.

Jewel is laying on her side and I think she may be facing us a bit but she is towards
the back of the den so it is a bit hard to see for sure.

All quiet now.

Here is the January 27 2012 Update Lily and Faith

1155 pm
Both cubs are awake and Jewel is sittin up now
and it looks like she is repositioning the cubs but
also giving them a bath as we can see her licking
them both.

Both cubs cry in response to their bath ....so cute
can see them climbing about Jewel's belly as
she is facing the cam so we get brief glimpses.

0002 am
Both cubs are nursing now...can hear two motors
running.

Now it is time for me to say.....

Bear Pals stay safe and sweet dreams to you all.

Its been a fairly quiet day (when I was watching off & on ). Both cubs seem to have gotten the hang of nursing now.. that's what I presume as they haven't been fussing so much.
Now the little cries are muted.
Can hear nearby noises sometimes,like Woodpecker,aeroplane or animal coughs.

Very late here so,...have a nice Sunday

.

I agree macdoum, there have been a few disgruntled but muted noises while I've been in today, all is quiet now as has been the norm the 2 1/2 hours I've been here on and off. Sounds of at least 2 wee ones continue when there is fussing/nursing. I can't believe I called Jewel Lily yesterday, have corrected that. Love them both!
