DH took these photos of a GBH in the creek near our house last November. I think it looks thinner than Linda's herons.

Hi all finally got thru chat and it's been a busy day.

Peetie I know you are gone now but I'm excited to see you got one kitty home. You have a big kitty family!

Scout :D Lala so sweet. Glad mom is ok and can return to her favorite things

Sara I had a couple of clients die on me too. Heartbreaking. One I had from the very beginning of the program and I just loved her. Her daughter and I became good friends too. So sorry.

Cricket what a wonderful experience saving someone's life. I'm afraid I would be worthless. Chocolate factory.....???? Oh my goodness I'd be in huge trouble!

Jojo It's so wonderful to have these dedicated people to take these little tiny things and nurse them to good health. Bravo!!

:X: :X: :X: Please let this place be the one I will LOVE. Has a nice yard and is also on a dead end street. I think I'll be content there if we can get past the inspection. Whew.... :X:

Oh George I am hoping you will be in good shape to go with Cricket.

Cheryl--good, sounds like I remembered his forum "handle" correctly :D --maybe someone here has heard from him.

He was so much fun last year, the night of the full moon and the squid boats flood lights --TH was lit up until well past midnight---we were hanging out with others on nest observation--amazed at what we were seeing--as eagles incubated. the egg was soo shiny in the moonlight---was magical. again, miss him

It's been a full week. A longtime client passed away, another had to finally admit her husband to an assisted living facility, and a good friend had a big auto accident last night after passing out at the wheel from hypoglycemia. She is in the hospital, where I spent a good part of the day when I wasn't seeing clients. If bad news comes in threes, we're done for awhile. Good news is my friend is going to be fine, just broken ribs from the seatbelt and a totaled new car plus the three parked cars she took out with her.

Sorry to hear of your loss of a client Sara. Also that your friend had an auto accident, but glad she is going to be fine.

I have to tell you why I only had one M & M the other day! They were passing around a container of them at our Model A dinner at Cody's & I only took one since I had them at home & they were passing around other candy, like tootsie rolls & dark choc. kit kats! Also there were a lot of people & I knew most of them liked mint choc.! :P At home I'd eat more than one, that's for sure! :D

Just to remind you that otters bring rocks up from the bottom of the ocean and lay them on their tummy and use it to break the shells on whatever they are eating.. maybe he thought it was a big rock...

PAULA .... partially maturity but mainly 'Spring-time issue' as in they, like our eagle kids, have to be mature enough to develop full breeding plumage when a young bird's fancy turns to thoughts of.... :wub:

Cheryl - Joanie is right...your's and mine are juvies

An adult has

White crown stripe.
Black plume extending from behind eye to off the back of the neck.
Shaggy feathers on neck and back.


Edit - added pic....this one looks like more of an adult...has the shaggy neck feathers.
