The eaglets Brutus and Lil Guy just cannot catch a break.

There was a partial nest collapse this evening. Most of the supporting bottom is gone as well as half the nest surface. What is left has shifted, continues to shift, and is listing precariously. How long it will stay intact is questionable.

The nest bed is supposed to be the size of a king sized bed. The structural depth is supposed to be 5-6 feet.

Brutus has fledged and can fly as needed. He has also tried eating while perched before but hasn't mastered it. And, he is quite used to and adept at perching on a branch.

Lil Guy has barely branched. He has never flown. He has never tried to eat while on a branch. And, he likes to rest/sleep laying down. Perching is not his thing.

At least they were both well fed today. A full tummy will be helpful while they figure this out. Adaptability means survival in the wild.

Dad stopped by a bit ago, did a wtf did you kids do while I was gone cursory look and kept on going. Mom is keeping her distance. The kids get excited, hop up and down and flap when they see a parent, thinking food is coming. Jumping up and down right now would not be a good idea.

I'm getting too old for this shit. LOL.

JDeere · 04-20-2016, 07:06 PM

That my girlfriend better hurry up and text me, I am getting a bit frustrated with this not texting calling stuff.

I know I am needy but sheesh really, I text/call right back because it is common courtesy.

MsTinkerbelly · 04-20-2016, 09:53 PM

On my mind......

How much I miss my daughter.

Kobi · 04-21-2016, 02:25 PM

The good news is Brutus and Lil Guy still have a home. The nest is holding. They have been fed. They cant lounge or rest spread out in the nest bed but both seem to be doing okay with spending the day branching. Lil Guy should fledge in the next day or so.

The bittersweet news is the eaglets Liberty and Justice seem to have left the area. They fledged a month ago but stuck close to home for meals, rest, and sleep.

They havent been seen since yesterday am. Parents were still bringing food by, tidying up, and spent the night in the nest tree but no sign of their offspring. Not even the parents have been around today.

This nest has been a pleasure to watch. The parents are super providers and protective caretakers. As a result, their offspring reach milestones together, have few episodes of drama, and bond deeply.

Another job well done parents!

And for L and J.....goodspeed lil buddies. You did everything together, including leave together on your new journey. Hopefully your bond will continue and will help you both during the toughest upcoming year of your life. 50% of eaglets do not survive the first year.

My kitty, she is suffering with a yucky sinus infection that is hanging on. I took her back to the vet and they gave us more antibiotics. I just want her to be well.

Nothing profound...

Just that I really want some nutella but I have to go to the store for it...

I don't know if tired will win over craving...it's a close race atm...

Who am I kidding. Nutella wins

Kobi · 04-27-2016, 03:09 AM

Brutus and Lil Guy are continuing to deal with a deteriorating nest.

Brutus is doing well, tho he flies to the parents resting spot often to express his dismay with their menu selection. Both eaglets have taken to flinging uneaten amoured catfish over the side of the nest.

Lil Guy is 3 months old today and still keeping us waiting for his first flight. Most first flights are "oopies" rather than deliberate - a broken twig or branch, a misstep and flying it is. In the meantime, he seems intent on dismantling the elastic straps holding the camera wires in place. He has torn two off thus far.

cinnamongrrl · 04-28-2016, 06:34 AM

Where to begin....

So I've had this same job for almost a year and a half. Started out great....slowly declined into not so great.

I realized some time ago I was ready for a change. I just needed to find a good job that fit my skills and helped me along on my path. So I did.

Now, my job that stressed me out is in the past and I'm feeling all kinds of anxiety about letting go. Seriously. What's that about?

I've always been an excellent letter goer. I don't dawdle I DO. I don't get why this is causing me so much angst. Unless it's going from familiar to not familiar. But...

I moved 800 miles away on my own to a new state, a new life really. I'm so not this girl who lives in the past and dwells on regrets...so...

I just don't get it. I guess it's just a matter of time. But I just feel so very sad...my heart almost hurts.

Chad · 04-28-2016, 08:13 AM

Two things;

First my kitty is not getting better with me throwing meds at her and then going to work everyday so I stayed home today to make sure she gets food and water even if I have to force it into her mouth.

Next a woman at work complains about me talking to project partners and coworkers everytime she is in a bad mood. I talk to people about business not personal stuff so it is not like I am sitting around chit-chating all day. I feel like she is targeting me and that is a form of bullying. So I am going to report her to HR. This makes me so angry.

Bèsame* · 04-28-2016, 09:18 AM

My boss came in yesterday...shocker! I was there. She seems to stop by when I'm not, and then proceeds to throw me under the bus to my managers.

Anyways, she needs me..lol. Her boss will be in town next week. She actually let me give my input. And ....wait for it.... It worked!

It's always been her way. Which isn't always the best choice.

Not holding my breath, this can flip on a dime!

JDeere · 04-28-2016, 10:31 AM

My Dad...

I woke remembering a dream from last night. We were standing just inside the open garage door, looking at the night sky. I saw three shooting stars...........

Making me smile this morning.

Chad · 04-30-2016, 10:43 AM

My kitty, the vet pulled a hail Mary this morning if it works we are good if not things will be very bad. I am pouring all my hopes into my kitty for a full recovery.

Chad, I am so sorry you and your kitty are going through such a hard time. I understand your pain and sadness while wondering if your precious cat will gain more time from the procedure the vet did. My thoughts are with you.

(I work doing hospice care for cats, so I REALLY think i understand)
