Take a look at this Eagle Cam (http://www.infotecbusinesssystems.com/wildlife/ ). It is a "live cam" on an eagles nest in Canada. The eagle is sitting on two eggs. The baby eagles are suppose to hatch around April 27th. I've clicked on to the site through out the day and the Eagle this morning was making a bunch of noise (LOL), but so far I haven't been able to see the eggs. :( Oh well...


I have DSL so it is loaded for me pretty fast some of you with dial up may have to wait a little while. ;)

Extremely boring today at work. What's worse, the video's not working for me.

There's only so many times I can straighten the 1's pile.

This may explain the problem everyone seemed to be having yesterday (I haven't been able to get on at all today)

Attention all eagle watchers!
We appreciate everyone’s support and interest in the eagles. Due to popular demand, the streaming video is on overload and is working hard to accommodate all viewers. If you are not watching the eagle site, please close the browser window to allow other users to see the birds.

Either one has a hole in it, or a dirty spot!

Ive been snooping on a dove who has made a nest in a palm tree in the atrium about six feet from the window in my second floor office. Every so often one of the doves will sit in the ledge of the window sill. Its neat watching him build a nest around the other dove. I have a feeling she’s laying eggs. Theres another palm tree with another nest. The baby dove must have just learned to fly. It looks small and keeps banging into my window. He’ll land on the ledge and just stare at me. He cant even be scared away.

We have Mud Swallows that lay eggs in a nest in the corner of my front porch about 3 times a summer. Never have figured out if it's the same birds each time or several who have a "time share" on the nest.

Last summer there were 4 baby swallows in it. The birds in the picture were flying, but would always come back to the nest. They usually flew off when someone went out there, but I was able to get this picture because we were having a terrible rain storm at the time.

The stayed put in the nest until I took the picture....I guess the flash scared them more than the rain because they immediately flew out of the nest and into the rain and I never saw them again!

I haven't had a chance to check this until now, but it appears that the eggs hatched as there are two small eagles in the video.
