I joined Soap Chat as (it was then) to chat about Big Brother and didn't even notice the other forums on here for months then I suddenly realised how creepy my one-eyed avatar looked and eventually changed it.
You've probably seen that the webcam is back up. Its a shame that we missed an important part of the three juvenile eagles starting to explore the world. One of them has been back for the last couple of nights and has slept on The Branch.
I was able to see two on the nest or nearby today. It seems they like the nest and use it as a place to eat. At least our show isn't over just yet here.
I caught Guy arriving at the empty nest this morning and he was swiftly followed by one of his children who was very aggressive naughty bird. The juvenile pecked at Guy and shooed him off and then took the food for himself.
its fascinating watching them practice flying, they seem to hover in mid-air, what a busy and happy nest that looks and what can I say about the view? wow! wow! its stunning.! Thanks for posting this Michelle, Ospreys are another bird which I know nothing about.
I'll check this one out as the others slow down but with their young about the same age as Fluff and the Trio this cam is about over for this season as well. I don't know if Ospreys have more than one cycle of broods per year or not. It don't get too cold in San Fransisco so I'm curious.
I had to delay the visit. Maybe next week. Something came up in the world of Michelle. I have talked to the owner by phone so they are ready for my hotness and orchid questions. I'm eager to see this place.
Oh no! She is surely just resting. My Snowy was asleep, resting for over year. I was so worried. Then this past March she awoke and started to add roots and leaves. they need their resting period. I hope Orkie is okay.
So far so good. She was crying for help so I'm glad she came into my life and has been so responsive to my care. I couldn't ask for me in such a short time-span.
The PBS one is long and I only watched the first half but it was interesting. Many of our Cicades have died by now. I saw a little one while pumping fuel yesterday and moved it to the grass at a filling station. Poor little thing was confused in this giant world above ground. This brood should be gone by early July.
Interesting. They are noisy but they are a part of out summer sounds and we get use to them. We have our yearly broods that are not as numerous. The red-eyed 17-eyar Cicades are smaller and more interesting to many.
I've taken a few garden snaps, don't get excited because they're not great. Anyhow, this is the giant climbing Passion flower which we planted to cover an ugly wall.
Its difficult for you to get an idea of how tall it is. The top of the cane is about the same height as me . We have only had it a month and when I bought it, it was only about 12inch tall .... its like a beanstalk now
Hopefully it will eventually completely cover that ugly wall. It hasn't bloomed yet .. its too busy growing lol
Wow, what a lovely plant indeed. You give it so much space to grow and she will surely appreciate that. I do look forward in seeing her flower. May I ask what is in the pot to the left? I also see you have a birdhouse? That should work well with your rehabilitation in the eyes of the Budgies.
Irma sounds familiar. We get so many down here that I mix up the names sometimes. I know it was September of 2017 and it was somewhere around Labor Day. Or maybe I was just trying to forget the names.

All the years I lurked without joining this site I thought the whole thing was about Dallas. I didn’t know until I joined that all this other stuff was here. I felt like a complete imbecile.
Id love to know if they have another brood too. I think I could get interested in Ospreys, but it might be overwhelming trying to watch them the same time as the eagles.

You're right my friend, not that I ever doubted you, Orkie has finally woken up and is producing a new bloom I'm so relieved. To thank her and urge her on, I really need to pull my finger out and get her a friend.

I'm so pleased to hear about these creatures, they're very new to me.
Wow, what a lovely plant indeed. You give it so much space to grow and she will surely appreciate that. I do look forward in seeing her flower. I am still awaiting flowers, but its even taller since I took the photo ... will it ever stop growing :eck:
May I ask what is in the pot to the left? That's very observant of you and of course you can ask. Its a dwarf Sunflower, think I told you about the Supermarket giving out free seeds? I've planted them all so I hope in a few weeks we will be surrounded by Sunflowers.
I also see you have a birdhouse? That should work well with your rehabilitation in the eyes of the Budgies.
I need all the help I can get no way do I ever want to return to the TT Quarry.

Lol!.. and I thought it was all about Big Brother. Then one day I noticed the Music forum and wondered what was going on in there, it was a revelation when I saw all the other threads
DFF are you still looking for signature? if you don't want one then that's fine, because I don't have one either at the moment .. I'm still looking for inspiration.
Anyway, I just wanted to leave you a couple or so, ideas.
Not sure if this is the type of thing you want? or maybe you prefer images or a video clip? ... so many questions
You know, I love music so much and I hardly ever post on the music threads for some reason. I listen to music all the time. And from what I’ve seen over there Lashes I know you love music too.
And I have to say thank you for those signatures. I really like the middle and bottom ones. I think I’m leading towards the bottom one the more I look at them.
Just let me know what to do as you know the eternal struggles of DFF when it comes to this stuff.
Id love to know if they have another brood too. I think I could get interested in Ospreys, but it might be overwhelming trying to watch them the same time as the eagles.
It may be a week or so until I make the trip. It's been very warm here and I prefer to go on a cooler day. I do need some pots and other orchid growing items so I'm eager.
I'm trying to go on a cooler day as my supreme hotness may be too much for them. It usually is.

I hope everyone is having a nice week so far! DFF would like to share some good news tonight if it’s okay. I had some tests done today and they confirmed that I’m in perfect health. For two years I’ve had my battles physically and it looks like it is finally over, at least for now. Let’s hope it remains that way.
I can’t describe how I feel right now. I just want to hug everyone I see. And I just wanted to share that with the people in this thread that I enjoy chatting with so much.
So let’s see, that puts us 83 posts away from 4200. But I think post #4117 will always be my favorite!

It's so good to hear news like this! I'm so glad you are feeling well and your problems are behind you. One's health is most important and many of us, including myself, can take it for granted.
You are such a cherished member of this community and I'm so glad to see you happy with this great news.

I'd like to second what Michelle had said. Good health is something that is all to often taken for granted. The value of good health usually becomes apparent when one is, or a loved one is deprived of it.
DFF, I'm heartened to hear that you have navigated safe passage through the turmoil.
You know, I love music so much and I hardly ever post on the music threads for some reason. I listen to music all the time. And from what I’ve seen over there Lashes I know you love music too.
If ever you decide or get the time to join in with the music threads then I hope you know you would be very welcome. I've discovered so much new music thanks to the other members on here.
And I have to say thank you for those signatures. I really like the middle and bottom ones. I think I’m leading towards the bottom one the more I look at them.
