Hi everyone! Another crummy day here ..... gave up again on going to the gardening stores. Maybe I'll save myself some money and not bother this year. Trinity looks like she found the most comfortable spot in the room. It looks like she could have been in a sunbeam, too. Nice photos, Deb. Good news about the wedding rings being picked up. One step closer to the big day in August. Thank you once more for all the Eagleland news, Carole and Bette. They sure are growing up. Topa, I loved the photo of K-26 with Limuw for your promo. Super idea to have a link to all the eagle shirts, etc.. I hope Carole and Topa are both feeling a bit better today. Bette, your Christmas cactus has such a pretty colour, like a soft apricot. I have had pink ones but never one that shade. Your plant is doing so well with lots of blooms.  Cute photo with the ostrich, Michele. Hi Sunny. You have such cheerful posts! I always enjoy reading them.

ah cheryl - we've been slowly planting things that come back every year so we have less and less to do each spring ...... we've not had much time to give our flowers attention yet  maybe this weekend since the weather is finally supposed to be decent!just wrapping up processing the Mission photos from our brief CA trip last month ... took way too many the flower garden at the Mission was awesome - never seen anything like it - the Mission was very, very interesting as well. ES took another of our scouts for his project review and it was approved so now he has to wrap up his paperwork and submit his Eagle application - the last of the 5! whew ........... |

Lily the Black Bear - Update May 27, 2011 – 9:08 PM CDT Bears cooperate  Lily marking a utility pole - May 27, 2011 It’s Juliet’s Day on Facebook and out in the woods. Probably still accompanied by the male, she left the small area where they spent yesterday and began moving last evening about 8 PM. They moved slowly, covering only 1.1 miles by 11 PM when they stopped for the night. A little after 5 AM, they continued their slow move, covering 2.2 miles today by 8 PM. We’d like to get a look at them to confirm that they are still together and to identify the male, but that will be hard at best. If he is not a male that knows us, like BBKing, One-eyed Jack, Shylow, or Big Harry, he would melt silently off into the woods. Some people believe that males would defend females against people, considering them competitors. The truth is they know we are not bears and not competitors, and we have never seen any defense like that. We have good stories from the middle of some nights that we could make sound scary, but the fact is we have never been harmed by an adult male. We’ve found these powerful animals to be among the most timid bears unless they knew us. Then they were among the calmest, most trusting bears.  Lily, Faith, and Hope - may 27, 2011 June is cooperating. Just as her batteries are about to run out in her GPS unit, she decided to leave her roadless area and move 0.8 miles toward some old logging roads where she will be much more accessible in a quarter mile or so. We’ll see where she is in the morning.  Faith - May 27, 2011 Same story for Jo. About noon today, she left her roadless area and moved 2.2 miles back nearly to the area where she and her cub spent so much time in the 230-yard diameter area a few weeks ago. We’ll try to change her batteries tomorrow, too, and snap pictures of how her cub is developing. Lily and Hope are continuing to show Faith new land. Nothing Hope hasn’t seen before, but it’s new to Faith. Lily is marking trees and utility poles and straddling bushes as she goes, marking her territory. Faith Goes Wild (5:47) A Lily fan sleuthed out the story on “My Bear Family” the version of the BBC’s “The Bear Family and Me” that will air on National Geographic Wild on Wednesday, June 8. Following this link sent by the Lily fan, the three 1-hour segments will air one after another from 8 to 11 PM Eastern Time and then repeat immediately after. These are undoubtedly shortened versions from the BBC ones in order to leave time for ads. The information on the Nat Geo Wild page says: 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM Central Time My Bear Family: Bear Bite The unusual and risky tranquilizer-free methods of Dr. Lynn Rogers get him caught between the jaws of a mother black bear during filming. 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM, Central Time My Bear Family: Lost in the Woods Wildlife cameraman Gordon Buchanan follows a young mother black bear faced with a difficult decision. 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM, Central Time My Bear Family: Hunting Season Dr. Lynn Rogers tries to protect his research animals during the time of year research teams dread: hunting season. We’ll be watching with interest to see how these new versions are edited. We noted the drama built by the sentence describing the first one “My Bear Family: Bear Bite.” We shouldn’t let the cat out of the bag, but the jaws were not around Lynn, they were around Gordon’s leg. And instead of a savage bite, it was gentle communication to get Gordon’s attention. See how you interpret it when you see it. There was no damage, of course. The series is mostly about Lily and Hope with parts about Juliet and the cubs that she just nudged out on their own as yearlings a couple days ago. The petition to make the black bear Minnesota’s state mammal, is here. The place to leave a comment for protection of radio-collared bears on T. R.’s Facebook page is at Protect Minnesota's Research Bears. T. R. will pass your comments to officials. Minnesota residents who would like to get their legislators on board for the next legislative session, almost a year away, can find your local legislators at this Legislator Finder. T. R. Michels wrote another good blog about protection Thank you T. R. Thank you for all you do. —Lynn Rogers and Sue Mansfield, Biologists, Wildlife Research Institute and North American Bear Center |
