I woke up to a thrill this morning… the peacocks were sounding their alarm in the yard and I always know to grab the camera to see what creature is out there making them upset. As always, I was quiet and looking out into the fields to see if there was a coyote… but then I heard the swishing of wings coming off the roof of my house… It was a juvie Golden Eagle… sorry my captures are so far off… I thought it first was a hawk.. then it darted behind trees and when it finally came into the open I saw the white on the tail….for a moment I thought Bald Eagle but soon realized that too was wrong.. It banked to the right back towards Ojai…and I could see the white patches under the wings…. I was shaking for an hour… so excited…

Photos are for ID only… I know they aren't great… but I will be ready next time the peacocks sound the alarm… and will look up and not down...

If I'm not mistaken, no one has turned the Forum clock back.

When I signed into CHIL and went through the menus to get here, everything was an hour later!

Oh clock fairy..... :D

Marti, you have to change it yourself . Click on Members at the top of this page and then on My Controls. There's a box that asks if Daylight Savings Time is in effect.

Sandie, I have alot of astigmatism, so the drugstore glasses don't do the job, unfortunately. I have to go back there next week and deal with it. Today I'm working on the manuscript for my poetry book. I'm adding some pictures and finding the ones I want is quite a job since I have never organized them very well. The publisher person wants it ready to go by December. Yikes! That's coming VERY soon! :hair:

Good Evening Chat Friends! Today, was the last day of school for a whole week, so I feel relaxed enough to come on and read the posts.

First Lala,
I went back the other day, to see Buttercup's picture, again. How sweet is she!!!!!!!! <3

Sandie, what a horrible and just very very sad story. I also think Penny's suggestions were very helpful. :Hugs: <3 . Hugs to you.

Yes, Marti, you have to change the time on your own. :)^

Carole, Romeo and Juliet! :egg: How eggciting!!!!!

Jill, rofl rofl

Allison, (Bennett's Mama) came home today, for Thanksgiving Break. It's almost a full house, again. <3 <3

Mina sorry that won't work for you. Hope the car gets fixed easily.

Marsha it's nice to have a full house for awhile. Enjoy your time off.

Lala how exciting. Maybe it came to visit the bald eagles? I'd be shaking too! Now you have to look up AND down when the peacocks alert. I saw my hawk today also! Seems a lot of "kids" flying around today!

I just found out the person I found that is family and I have been communicating with is related to my Uncle Ike who gave me away at my wedding after my daddy passed away. I loved them both dearly. He was a good stand in for my daddy.

My aunt Jewel was in the Coast Guard in WW11. I saw her in uniform in a photo I have but had forgotten what branch of the service she was in. Her husband died on his wife's birthday. Susie was supposed to give permission for them to stop life support for her father and had to postpone due to snowy weather and her dad died that day so she didn't have to make that decision. I think she is missing that family connection.

Lala, those golden eagles pictures are really great! It's okay there are a bit far away! It's still a raptor!

Sandie, isn't The Coast Guard a military Branch, by itself? You can register her with the World War II Registry of Remembrances. Go online and check it out. I registered my Dad and my Uncle Harry. He also had 2 more brothers who served during WWII, but I have to get more facts. CHECK IT OUT! :)^

Hi Carol. :}^

Well, now I'm starting to feel a bit tired. Tomorrow, I have several errands to run including a community botique I usually attend.
