Just got up.  Cal, at bottom left of screen is a little blue box.   It says ,"Live".  Next to that is a little thing that looks like a piece of old timey movie film.  Click on it.  Then pick the time you want. 9PM.  Good luck.
Hi Paulie.
Lots of deer are just comin in.  They are afraid of something I cannot see.
Gotta go get started now.  GBU
I'm BACK!!!  Finally did the puzzle.  Pretty good time of 5:08.  Nice grey day here.  Lots of flood warnings from yesterdays storms.  I like to drive around and look at the various creeks etc. where I know it floods.  Second coffee almost gone.  So I will say CUL EV1 GBU and GB America.

April 3, 2025 And the First Bear of the Year iiiisssss----LEVI!!!!

Levi
After comparing photos and seeing his personality it has to be him!  He’s been coming every day.

Today, there was another bear report maybe two miles away—a mother with a single yearling. We’re waiting to hear more and see more for identification and to see how they are. I hope we can see them soon.

The picture shows Levi approaching in the woods.

Herring gull
Herring gull

Eight days ago (March 26) was the first visit by a Herring Gull. He comes every day and in the last couple days has been joined by two others even though there is no open water in this area yet.

Bald Eagle
Bald Eagle

Big excitement today was seeing the bald eagle swoop in for his treat. What made it extra exciting was him unexpectedly whizzing by about eight feet over Peggy’s head as she was shoveling snow off the steps only 12-15 feet from the drumstick that was suddenly gone after she put it out only minutes before. 

I have yet to get a good picture of that kind of action, although I did catch him in poor light a couple days ago partially into the picture with his feet far forward and his talons spread—just a fraction of a second before he snatched the drumstick from the little roof in front of him.

Pine siskins
Pine siskins

Snow evidently brings siskins to dinner. Each of two snowstorms had siskin numbers here in numbers near their high of the year. In the six-inch snowfall of yesterday, they seemed desperately hungry. Over five hundred of the gathered on the feeding deck with over a hundred in the surrounding trees.

Fisher
Fisher

Fishers are on the move. Three are coming now. One with part of its left ear missing an well healed is probably one that came a bit last year. It doesn’t seem as scared as I would expect.

The first woodchuck showed up April first, probably a male looking for a mate. I didn’t see him well enough to identify him or get a picture, though. We’ll see if he gives us another chance to ID him.

Valance
Valance

Last evening ended with a nice view—a beautiful valance that nature created outside the window.

We’ll see what bear comes next.

Thank you for all you do.

5:43  Could not sleep after 4am. First time for that for me.  So got up and turned on stock channel. They start early.  News is awful. Trump's tariffs are going to cause the worst recession in history according to Doctor Jeremy Seigel.  A very smart economics professor. 
Debbie and I are planning to go get some Lenten fish tonight.  I am looking forward to seeing her.  I haven't seen her in two weeks.  She usually has Friday off, but Mommy Mary is getting her new car serviced today.  So Debbie is keeping Bash.  I am not sure where Calum is.  Maybe with his Dad who works from home a lot.
Now I will let you go while I cruise the net and look at all my animal cams.  Thanks Cal for all you do.
Bye EV1 GBU

PS Just saw all three bears out. FYI

Hi cal, Good that the other day Jim putting down pellets worked. Good too he'll be there tomorrow for the rain.
Yes the other day some storms rolled through my area. Lots of lightening, thunder and downpours. Another hefty storm came through about 4am this morning. The local weatherman and news people was talking about how loud and nasty it was. I slept through it. Didn't hear a thing.  ;D

Hi jo, Waking way too early like you did today and not going back to sleep sucks honestly!! Hopefully you get a good night's sleep tonight.

Hi Slept well. It was great seeing all of our bears getting out.  Hope to see a lot more of them.
 Now looking at two deer at Snowman.  They seem shy of somethin.  Rain with some snow there.  Will come back later to do puzzle and report on other cams.  But first COFFEE!!!

Just did the puzzle.  Been napping I think. Took 6:33.

Now I see Denise reported the mailman at our mailbox.  So I will take a trip  to get my mail.  Rain has almost dried up, but it is getting real dark right now.  I may or may not be able to ride to the box.  Will let you know later.  Did not see any bears or many other animals this morning.

CUL EV1

Well just so you know.  I took my bike and got my mail got my mail, but I also got soaked.  As did many of my neighbors who were out walking the trail, because it was so nice after the rain quit.  Instead of the one tenth mile direct trip to my box I took a 1.0 mile trip around the trail.  About half way around, just as I turned into the wind, here comes the rain.  Lots of it. My legs are burning and I am still breathing hard.  My clothes are hanging all over the place drying.  LOL
Now it is time for lunch here.  So CUL EV1 GBU
  BTW   I am praying today for Roger's comfort.  His son, Walter, told me yesterday that Roger has cancer, and needs prayers.
