"Pea said she was ready to den with either Honey or Holly...says they sure look cozy 'n warm in there." Jean.
I was wondering how Laurie was coping with the cold spell.

I hope the storm isn't too bad Linda. Sounds like you and Sweety Pie are set though.
Beautiful pics of the swans in flight & the juvenile eagle! (You added pics after I had posted!!!) Lovely shots of the tug and barge too.

The moon pic came out excellent, not "rather well" Naoma.
Thanks for the Polar vortex info. Quite the winter many parts of N. America is experiencing. I don't usually mind the cold here, but I've never experienced temps like that nor do I want to.

Nice to hear you're enjoying a mild winter Anna.

Great that you're now drain free Doreen and also that your treatments will be done much closer to home.
I bet Whitey was very happy to see you.
Holly's den cam. The ad won't even load for me in FF (I do have most of the plug-ins disabled), but it does in Chrome and the cam came on a few seconds after the ad when I checked before posting this.

Saturday's short drive

(((Doree))).......I've been watching for your update & am so glad they fixed you up & treatments will be local & with a familiar & trusted facility.
Whitey Love
Austin vs Florida weather......usually would be about the same, but then Ma Nature likes to keep us guessing.
P.S..........tsk tsk.......people who spoil their pets.

As humans wanting to help our beloved wildlife, I am all for research, Linda.
I just had the thought of what it would be like for someone to put a band or radio collar or camera strapped to me.
Now I am laughing at myself & the thought of what others would see in that circumstance.
As always, I love your expression in pictures. Have you ever considered becoming a private tour guide for your neck of nature?


"The moon pic cam out excellent, not "rather well" Naoma. Titter".......by golly, you are getting warmer, Scooty.
BTW, If I haven't lately, I certainly still do.
Headed for the warm part of North America........to Chillywack for a drive.

Protection Against the Cold – UPDATE January 4, 2014

Honey in her den

Good Morning

Sunday ~ January 05, 2014

This one's for you, ((((( Gordy )))))...



Taken by my cousin Jane (Fairbanks, AK) as she was backing out of her daughter's driveway.
She said it was a mama moose with her baby following along behind.

Love the Trumpeter Swans, Linda...great in action captures.
Of course I thought about our Nanz while viewing the barge shots...she would love those.
Now seeing the immature eagle shots...love those too...thank you.

TeeHeeHee, Tx, @ “Fairbanks, Anchorage......only about a 300 mile difference.”
Janie lived in Anchorage for many years before moving to Fairbanks...I was a tad behind in my thinkin' when I typo-ed that.

Anna 'n Anniekins

Doree ~ Happy to read you were freed of the drainage tube...know that feels better, GF.
Prayers that all your follow-up treatments go well.

Scootie ~ “Saturday's short drive”...BB Updates...

Good Morning EA friends.....

Jean, I love the picture of the moose in Fairbanks, AK. Yep, Fairbanks be a wee bit different than Anchorage. We flew into Anchorage once,
not staying there, something special about Alaska - probably go back this year to Alaska.

TX, It's fun to hear how your dog and your visiting cats and dog are doing. Cats will certainly set a dog in its place. Then they turn around and love them.

Scott, It be cold everywhere for sure.

Doreen, Super that you can go to a familiar place. Whitey must love his stories.

Hi to all EA friends - love your pictures and jolly posts. Things be settled down here now that family has gone home. It's cold here too (or will be tonight).
The kids were cute, busy, hectic and walked a lot with me. My oldest granddaughter had the honor of holding Bleu's leash as Bleu responds well to her so there were
some tears on leaving Bleu. Bleu adores them all.

I hope y'all have a beautiful Sunday.....

Good Morning Dear Nesties

I've been reading along, keeping up with you all.
Will post more bout that later as Allie and I are heading out to the woods for some long awaited snowshoeing. A balmy -6 here today

For now, this special share from Amy, (with her permission), know you will love it .

(Amy)The eye shine is from an owl that doesn't seem to be spooked by little girls, fire or flash photography! Pretty awesome! Hmmmmm.....I wonder...



(from Facebook comments) ~
(friend) I bet it is who you think it is!!
(Amy) I think so too! Miss her so much, but it is things like this that remind me that she's still around. She's been on my mind all day Amazing!
Go figure! With her passion for birds, it isn't a shocker.

It was just so amazing how it hung around while the girls were running around. Alex built up the fire to give me a brighter light to take a picture. He's the one that spotted it and said "there's grandma."

(Laurie) I BELIEVE, I truly do! What a special moment and gift for all of you. Wishing You and Yours a wonderful New Year. Hugs

(from email) ~
please feel free to share anything with the nesties. They were part of the family as far as I am concerned. You don't have to ask. Please send them my best wishes for a Happy New Year and tell them all that I still hold them near and dear to my heart. I will never forget how much mom relied on and found refuge in the EA group... how much she loved everyone and how much she enjoyed the company.

Wishing You a Wonderful Day!

Laurie, I just got chills reading that post. I miss her so much.

Our cardinal is still around and hitting window after window, My husband has pictures of him attacking his reflection and of him and his mate.
I will get them sometime for y'all.
hugs,
carolyn

The cardinal reminds me of Sue.
