Well--I'm off now too fellow eagleholics

I can hardly wait for the reports and photos/videos from the Fledgefesters. From the brief glimpses we got on the cam, the weather looks perfect and from the sounds of it, Solo was flying around for them.

Byeeee

Bye Skipper -- We'll miss you! Have fun!

12:45 pm
Heard an adult land

12:47 pm
Heard Solo peep-calling as she was flying in

12:48 pm
Now in nest and crying like a baby!!
Sounds like she wants the food fast or wants adult out of there
Solo is squealing like a little piggy!
It sounds like Solo is being fed--heavens--she's excited
I think I hear gulping in between the bites--that's why I think she's being fed
A few crunching noises, too
Heavens, what a fuss!
I hope they are getting this on the ground!

Hello One and all,(Jean the old Hen) I' m at the tail end here but didn't realize there was something to write until I talked with Velma.))0f course I knew about the fledge.But not this.
Loved all the pictures and wished I could have been there, but old is old I 'm, afraid and the old hen is still with Sir Medication. so he wouldn't come with me. By gosh I will make it next year if David has a fest... Hi to KarenB, she works hard for this...
Have a Happy time and a good chinywag too. If you see Vickie tell her I am serviving haha and tell her to have a wonderful time. ok? Thanks. Terry ? Iam not a morning person either. Hugs and bye bye to all Jean... here. It is some hot here 88F feels like 95 chance of a storm later.

I hear all that caterwauling from Solo as well. Phoenix is getting a good lunch and is much more peaceful about it. Maybe all that flying that Solo is doing makes her hungry!

12:51 pm
Adult calling urgently from the nest (like "give me a hand, Pa, and now, please!)
Sounds like back to feeding with a much calmer Solo
Crunching, tearing and smacking noises
with little whimpers from Solo

12:52 pm
Urgent little whimper/grunts/whistles from Solo
Piggly wiggly!
Somebody wants more food and faster and now!
Whistle-like whimpering
screeping

12:54 pm
Quiet for a few seconds, back to screeping

12:56 pm
Screeping, whimpering continues, but at a less frantic pitch
Whimper-coo sounds, too
Solo sounds happier now!

12:58 pm
High-pitched screeps now, but not so loud
Can still hear tearing, crackling sounds--so Solo must be being fed now still

Camera view: rainbow blinds

1:00 pm
The pitch it going up again......still being fed
Feeding song--I think that's what you called it yesterday, PEB

1:01 pm
Screep, screep, screep, crunch, screep, screep, screep

1:02 pm
Quiet (my cam is still running), mini-screeps
Little trilling happiness sounds! (like "thanks, Ma, that hit the spot! Sorry I screamed at you." )

1:04 pm
Heard gentle fly-off with no sound from Solo
Sounds still being made on nest--maybe eating sounds

for a while

Perfect timing for the Fledgefest! Hope the sky is clear and participants post many pictures and videos.

Hope everyone is enjoying the Fledgefest!
Yes it was July 12-2007 when SKYE fledged And I was there!
