Topa, what a great poster about off-leash dogs and the people who let them run. Brynn used to totally freak out. He was even attacked a few times by 'friendly' loose dogs. I'm afraid to take our two out alone for fear of the same thing.

Good Morning  :<<o>>: Peeps

Image Allison Shock - no “artistic” Photoshop filters used

Along the Verde River in the Yavapai Indian Nation, a Bald eagle sits low in the field of view, framed by a dramatic snag, golden cottonwood foliage, and saguaro and brush-covered hills behind. Out of sight, the river flows to the right, between the eagle and the saguaros in the background.

Vignetting, distortion, noise, and other fatal photo flaws result in moody painterly effects created by distance, heat, and the multiple lenses of digiscoping.

Carole, thank you for all the whooper screen caps. I had put it on full-screen. I enjoy watching them dip and fly that way.

Topa, well done on the three videos! :)^ Thank you! I don't know how to do them.

Robert got home from a walk in the woods with the dogs. Wynn arrived home without his fleece coat, oops. Robert headed back to find it. A neighbour who had also been in the woods walking her dog had hung the coat on a bush - saw Robert on the way back in and told him.

We do know that NX was rescued by Northumberland County Sheriff’s Department Animal Control Officer Kevin Keeve... NX is the third eagle he has rescued in 2011... “I enjoy my job,” he said. “It’s a job that involves a lot of emotion, but I enjoy it.” Deputy Keeve responded to the 10:46 p.m. call about an injured eagle on December 1 and was there to capture NX at 11:01 p.m.


11:01 pm, now that's a dedicated and caring Animal Control officer. Kudos to Officer Keeve. :ok:

Penny, the photo is so detailed and artistic. The eagle looks like it is sitting in a glow of sunlight.

Thanks for all the :clk: :clk: 's

Topa perfect poster for all the people who have 'well-behaved' dogs :)^

I'm going to the Gov't. passport office shortly...that should kill a few hours waiting in line to hand in our papers and get some new 'jail' photos. Honestly on my current passport I don't even recognize myself :blink: No smiling allowed and hair behind the ears, nothing obscuring the face :P

I always ask the US and Canadian border police if they actually see a resemblance rofl
They always check twice :D

Cheryl - Thanks. I'm always happy to help out, :wub: these babies. I also learn so much from their chat, lots of very dedicated and knowledgeable people involved there.

Happy that Wynn's coat was found, they are quite expensive.

Topa - Great whooper videos, you are now a "CRANIAC" :)^ :P Super dog poster, just sent it to my doggie friends.

Penny - The eagle photo is breathtaking. :wub:

TODAY'S NX UPDATE :)^

December 8 update
NX continues down the road to recovery. She ate everything last night and once again kept her food down. The vets will check out her GI tract again on radiographs, which will be taken on December 9, but at this point, Dr. Dave anticipates that they will not need to scope NX.

NX was weighed today [wrapped up tightly in a "raptor wrapper"] and is 3.55 kg. While this is down from her initial weight on December 2, the veterinary team isn’t concerned. Her initial weight included her transmitter [80 grams] and a crop full of rancid deer meat [which she regurgitated on her first night in the hospital]. Also given the fact that she had to be fasted prior to radiographs, the vets aren’t surprised that NX’s weight has decreased a bit. She’ll likely put that weight back on in a matter of days as she continues to recover.

Dr. Dave affixes a “tail guard” to NX’s tail to protect it while housed indoors: Posted Image


An XXL “raptor wrapper” in action! Posted Image

Penny, gorgeous shot by Allison Shock!

This is an outrage that is beyond words! Japanese "officials" have appropriated Earthquake designated funds to the tune of 28 Million Dollars to fund the bogus "scientific harvesting" of Whales in the Antarctic. :hair: :angry: :'( Greenpeace is trying to intervene but it's looking like a voltile confrontaion could be at hand. :unsure:

12,000-year-old Gobekli Tepe in Turkey

The structures on this site were built about 12,000 years ago (10,000 BC)
and possibly intentionally buried with sand about 8,000 years ago. No one knows who
these people were, what the massive buildings were for, or why they were
buried. Just for reference, these massive structures were built during the
last ice age and are more than 7,000 years older than any other structure we
have yet discovered on our planet.
As I watched this I was in awe of what is shown and discussed, 13 years of
work and only an estimated 5% had been uncovered!!! This would truly be
amazing beyond words to see.
