Jeanne your posts are always so professional.
Todays post is especially intriguing. I've seen the
photo of the mountain man with the eaglet,
but I can't remember where?

Now that the days are longer Barry and
I have been enjoying dinner at the beach.
Yesterday I went swimming. Love it!

Avery looks like a very calm and contented baby, Topa. Your beach outings sound like a lovely way to have dinner with hubby. That's a pretty umbrella photo. :)^

Jeanne, your eagleholic brain quest was such a fun way to wake up! I was also wondering where you found the photo with the man and the eaglet. I've never seen that one so that was a treat.

Penny, what a joy to see Buddy! He looks good with his white head and tail. :<<>>: The folks who were actually there must have been over the moon with excitement. The man spoke very well about how they learn from the sick and injured eagles so that they can help everyone.

We just finished walking the dogs and got caught in a downpour, oh well. We can hear the tree harvesting machine working deep in the woods. Robert ended up being interviewed a couple of days ago. In the newspaper article the reporter had our last name spelled incorrectly but he did get 'whippets' right. That's the most important part.
;) :P

Whooper Update: Young Pair Hatches Twins :X: :X:

Date: May 9, 2012 Reporter: Heather Ray
Subject: INTRODUCING... WILD HATCHED TWINS! Location: Main Office


Whooping crane parents DAR 42-09* and UL 24-09 and the Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership are proud to announce the arrival of TWO chicks! The first arrived sometime Monday and was spotted by Wisconsin DNR pilot Bev Paulan (photo below). In the photo the chick appears to be drying itself in the sun and the egg at the opposite side of the nest looks as if the chick has recently emerged from it. The parent crane is still sitting, likely on the other egg or a previously hatched chick.

ICF Tracking Team Field Manager, Eva Szyszkoski visited the Adams County site today to check on the nest and in the second photo you can see the TWO wild hatched Whooping crane chicks. This is the first nest attempt for this 3 yr old pair.

Kris, I'm so sorry that Daffy's nest was flooded. I just caught up on Monday's posts. Creatures live on the edge of existence all the time. We only see a small portion of the battles they face on a daily basis. That's so sad for her and for you and Ed.

I saw this picture which made me think of you and your ancestors. It is so pretty. I hope it helps to cheer you up a bit. It is called 'Gypsy Firefly' by Aimee Stewart.

Cheryl, that's such wonderful news about the new Whooper hatchlings! :><: And thank you for the beautiful image I just saw as I posted this. :Hugs:

There are a few recent and very disturbing wildlife news stories I don't want to bring everyone down with but if you search "Eagle sacrifice" and "White Buffalo Calf in Texas" you can find them. :'( :'(

Sorry I can't be here much lately; "Life Happens", and my "Blissed out" level is MIA for now. :(
