Good morning west coasters and everyone else! Great update on Cruz (and other island inhabitants!!) Sorry for the confusion about "drawing" - it was bed time! I'm doing my searches and of course as the dates get closer, anxiously awaiting to hear about the drawings etc! Doing my best to get the donations higher!

HB sorry to hear but glad to know you were there for the dove when my princess had trouble laying eggs and eventually didn't make it, I spent all the time I could at the vets, visiting her. some folks thought I was crazy but she was our family and I know our being there helped her! it was so sad.....

Well it's sunny here this AM and COLD! Fall is moving in - WOO HOO - I LUV THE COLDER WEATHER.... good bye summer heat! :P

Good Morning All~

Great to see a live bird on the West End nest. He looks so small compared to the adult eagles you see on the nests. Very beautiful bird, I love those raptors.

Mamimoba mom and tasha...great to see you back I haven't see either one of you for awhile!
Harpo 516 what happened? I didn't quite understand your post. Did a dove die because it couldn't lay it's eggs?
Well, I didn't sell my trailer. I didn't realize it was in such bad shape. I haven't been out there in over 6-8 months. Someone had cut the wires on the brake hookup and made it too dangerous to haul. I mourn what has happened to it. I wish I could still haul it around but not the way my back and arms are.

I came home last night and my neighbor was just in shock. Someone came along at her work and broke her car window just because they saw her Razer phone sitting in the front seat. I'm told you can't use it once it's reported stolen. Why bother? I don't get it. I think these crooks can figure out a way...otherwise why run the risk and take it? At least they weren't smart enough/or have enough time to look around at other items in the car far more valuable. What are people thinking?

Good Morning~~

If you haven't been over to read Loverofchicks' wonderful poem in Poems, Odes & Tributes, don't miss it. What a beautiful tribute to our beloved girl. The poem is called On the Island of Santa Cruz.

Nice to see the peregrine at the West End nest!

Sandie: no HB lost a dove (9/20 posts) and about a year ago, my little parakeet tried to lay her first egg but had a prolapsed uterus and the stress of it all was too much and she didn't make it! Our new little parakeet blessed us with 5 eggs back in June! - she had no interest in them (and I'm ok - I just don't have the time to go thru that). BUT boy did I learn about egg laying and more!!!

Sorry about your trailer - maybe there's someone out there who would give it love and help it become viable again! I saw them on TV and thought they were great!! We just do tents. AND your neighbor - you can't leave anything in your car at all these days - once you report the phone as stolen it's my understanding it's useless but I'm not a criminal so what do I know cause they do keep stealing them! What a shame..... :angry:

Edit: wonder what goes thru a small bird's mind when he's sitting on giant eagle nest!! if little guy laid an egg in there - you'd never see it again! :D

Sandie: I have never understand vandalism just because "it's there". Why would someone cut your brake hookup wires? But I understand how you feel about your old "friend". I have a 1969 VW like that....I should let her go...but I just can't quite do that yet. She sat a lot the past few years and she looks..........old....but she still runs and has great heart!

Gorgeous day here today....hope everyone has a grrrrrrrrrreat day!

I'm RE-posting this over here so that hopefully Loverofchicks sees and knows how in awe I am that she wrote and posted her 'Ode' to our A-49... I mistakenly posted my comment in the Tribute thread... sorry :( - I'll try to delete/edit and thanks for the reminder, Peppermint, to not clutter up the thread.

"Wow, Loverofchicks... that couldn't have been easy.... how long have you been working on this? Even if you say it came to you quickly, it is obvious that it has been writing itself in your heart over a period of months. Thank you for putting into words what brought us all together here in the first place!"

Harpo...your own eggs??? wow wouldn't that be fun....well maybe.
Hula Bird....do cockatiels do their screeching more during molt/mate time. Bernie is screaming up a storm. I noticed last night suddenly there was a huge pile of feathers in the bottom of his cage. HHHHMMMMM what's up with that??

Hulabird--I'm so sorry to hear about your dove. I had been wondering how it was doing. You did all that you could---and the dove died in comfort, thanks to you and Woody. It must be difficult to feed a sick wild bird. Thank you for taking the time and caring.

Sandie, let me get this straight. You're asking ME when birds scream the most? Girlfriend my birds scream all day. I would think they were dead if there was no noise in this house. LOL

And what happened to Bernie? Your avatar is broken.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words and condolences on the dove. It just kills me everytime one of my kids die.
