    (From my pigeon list)

    This is so cool, you probably need a high speed connection to see it
    though. Someone has a camera on this pair of eagles with their eggs,
    they intend to keep streaming it until the babies leave the nest. The
    quality is great, its like watching it on tv. Hope you all like it.

    Geez! It's like being in the nest with her!! I just saw her making adjustments to the egg!!!

    Did you see how many eggs she has? I only saw one when I first started watching, but she wasn't completely standing up.

    She is very "busy." I have a male pigeon, Milly, on fake eggs right now, and he stays frozen like a statue for hours at a time. The eagle is very different. I suppose she doesn't have as much to fear.

    We saw 2 eggs. I don't think there were any more.

    So you really are a "pigeon lover"? I was wondering about that! Cool.

    If there were a safe way to do it. It's more stressful, almost, to think about him home being babysat than thinking about a 374 mile ride!

    Well, if he is occupied on his fake eggs, at least he's not getting into any trouble. Good luck Saturday. I guess it should be "good luck Saturday and Sunday," right?

    By the way, go over to the racing thread and respond to the woman who asked about ultracycling and brevets. You're really the sage.

    It's my first season. I am definitely not a sage. I am just muddling through. After Sunday, though, I _might_ be a sage. ;-)
