I caught Mom yesterday in a panning session and liked what I saw.  A good looking Mom bald eagle.  Tetris, 13:20.

VERY cool pic of Mom, JP!  I was surprised at my time... 5:36... guess from looking at our eagles for so long!   ;)

16:03.  It's nice to get a current photo in a new Jigzone puzzle.  Thanks, JP!  Is there some secret to uploading them now?  A particularly good time to do it?  A new procedure?  LOL.  I really wish I could upload some pics to Jigzone - can you tell?  ;) :D

No, I just try every once in a while and after several tries it loads.  Early in the morning seems to be a best time.  Also, I had over 400 pictures in one album so I started a new album, I thought maybe that would help.  Who know?

I have been able to upload to JigZone a s'cap I took in March of a close-up of Decorah Mom's feathers.  It's supposed to be a 55-Piece Sixstar cut, and I'm going to attach a pic here that you can click on to get an enlarged version of the s'cap.  I'm going to try to post a link to the puzzle, also.  This is my first attempt at making a puzzle. Hope it works!  ::)

(Nora, I used to know where you had posted the directions for creating a JigZone puzzle, but I have lost that post.  Do you have any idea where I can find it again? LOL  ::) :D  )

Update:  Well... I think this worked.  :D  I'll see if others can access and work this puzzle also.  Please tell me if it comes up for you as a 55-piece sixstar, as I intended, so I will know if that part worked, too.   :D  Thanks!

I worked this feather puzzle in 55-piece sixstar in 7:31

23:20.  I really like that picture, JP!  (I think I'm getting slower.  :D )

Thanks for letting me know, JP!

Nora, I would still like your directions for uploading and making JigZone puzzles if you know where they are.  They were very helpful when I had them but couldn't upload a photo.  I thought I had saved them, but I can't find them now.  Then today - Surprise! - I was able to upload a photo for the first time, but couldn't find the instructions from you on the order of steps to make the puzzle.  Seems like I remember your notes saying to do some things I don't think I did in the right order at all.  I really just got lucky, I think.

I took this yesterday during zoom close-ups at the Decorah nest.

Big yellow boot - http://www.jigzone.com/puzzles/9316AB0304D?z=27&m=64250FACCE.B4B3907 - 91 Piece Lizards.  My time 14:42

I came back to add the attached pic - click to enlarge:  ;) :D
