Good evening Hornby!

Hey texaslonestar1950, gemini2kd, and llefty! :hello:

I haven't heard a word from or about Doug lately, so I don't know what's up. :dunno:

llefty, I don't know the first thing about an Apple computer, but you might post your questions here...

Apple Mac User Support

There are several Mac users here and someone should be able to help you.

Are these s'caps from the camera you've saved or are they personal photos someone else has taken and you saved to your computer? If they're personal photos, be sure to ask their permission before you post them here and give them credit. Copyright issues are really touchy right now, so we want to make sure we dot our "I"s and cross our "T"s. If in doubt, you can always PM me and I can see if it's OK to post them here.

Hornby Weather

Hello nightowl, texaslonestar, gemini, llefty and the rest of the gang including Doug:

Oh My Goodness Llefty!!!!! You mean we are known as "apple snobs" I was reading your comments about needing help transferring photos, but although I am the proud owner of a Mac, I am not too bright when it comes to technical stuff, but some days I get real brave and click on buttons and miracles happen!

Things must be getting eggciting on the Hornby nest and no doubt eggs will appear in the very near future...if they haven't already.

Gosh - isn't it wonderful to know that it's the 2nd of March already. I was hoping that it would come in like a lion and go out like a lamb, but alas, yesterday was a pleasant and sunny day. I hope that doesn't mean that on the 31st of March we will be hit with a blizzard!

Have a nice weekend everyone.

Thanks night owl. I was wanting to transfer my captures that I saved to my favorites from one computer to another. I didn't mean to post here. It's good that you mentioned about the copyright issue though. All the videos and pictures that I saved is under Dougs' copyright. But I just wanted to transfer them from my Acer notebook to the Apple Macbook. And bruner......hahahaha (yes, there are Apple Snobs). My husband is first on the list He says "once you go Apple...there is no going back". All in good fun.

Hi IIefty Bruner Nightowl: bruner dont even tease about the weather ,has been a nice mild winter around here rain made up for the fluffy white stuff and I dont think the salt trucks came out and no school closings its probley a first.Last year was a long cold spring and "bam" summer started hoping for nice mild spring high 60s and 70s.I am surprised Doug hasnt logged on hope everthing is ok with him and Sheila,well at least have the same people here that we have had along. I am waiting for the Norfolks to get some eggs in nest before Easter bunny and got a kick out of barn owls at Starr Ranch they are getting ready to fledge and are the cutiest birds ,well Iam off hope to here some exciting news from Hornby.

:hello:Hello Hornby and Nightowl, bruner, texaslonestar1950, gemini2kd, and llefty!

If I recall correctly, Ma and Pa's eggs were laid a little later in March than usual last year, but that may not mean anything when it comes to predictions!! Somehow I have a feeling that Ma is still giving Pa the business over one thing or another. I miss seeing them also.

Here's hoping the weather is nice for our beloved eagle couple for the next few weeks! :cheerguy:

Good late afternoon Hornby!

OK...egg laying. I kept records for the last 2 years...and actually knew where I put them!

2011...

First egg..March 22 @ 7:44PM
Second egg..March 26 @ 3:24PM

2010...

First egg..March 20 between 7:50-8:00PM
Second egg..March 24 (not sure of time)

2009...

Hope hatched April 27 which would mean her egg was laid March 22 or 23. (35 days)
Echo (RIP) hatched May 1 meaning his egg was laid either March 26 or 27 (35 days)

My record keeping for 2009 was a bit sketchy at best.

Sooo...that means we most likely have another 3 weeks at least before any eggs are laid.

Thank you nightowl for the information. Looking forward to this season. :
