Hello Beakers, just asking for prayers needed for Bald Eagle Mom Andria...  :'(  Thank you so much.

I am so grateful we have RRP that rescues our babies especially due to human fault ie: lead poisoning.  Prayers for you sweet Andria in Lousiana. Lori

December 8, 2023 Update:
07:44:00 From Steve Shively, Kisatchie National Forest Wildlife Biologist:
Obviously, Andria is big time sick. I thought she looked like she was recovering yesterday but now it looks like a long downhill slide. Maybe she will recover, but if I had to bet I would bet not.
We will NOT climb the tree to capture her. If she falls out of the nest, we will try to retrieve her and get her to LSU in hopes she could be saved then release her back if she is saved.
If she dies or is off the nest for a prolonged period it is not likely that Alex could incubate the eggs to hatching much less raise young to fledging alone.
There are lots of hazards in the natural world for all wildlife and eagles are not immune. Most wildlife, eagles included, manage to keep population going despite hazards.
Lots of eagles in Louisiana and their population is increasing. Unfortunate and tragic that this eagle is suffering like this and may die. But that's reality.
We all hope she survives and eggs hatch and young fledge. If she dies, we may discontinue streaming this nest, depending on circumstances"

Photo by Russ Stanton near Cotton, Mn. He writes:
A Great Gray Owl I photographed at Sax-Zim Bog near Cotton, Minnesota today (December 7th).  According to the Audubon Society,  Sax Zim Bog is the best place in America to find these rather rare birds.  They look huge, but it is mainly feathers.  Great Horned Owls usually weigh more.

with all the owls I saw when I volunteered at the Raptor Center, I never saw a Great Gray up close and personal.

Lori - He says she's big time sick..What do they think she is sick from? Or do they not know at all? Obviously, I don't follow this nest in Louisiana.

Hi, I don't really follow this nest either I was just asking for prayers... I am "assuming" it's probably lead poisoning, but I have no idea and that is not confirmed.  I will try to get more info.  Prayers for Mama Andria 💜
Beautiful pic of owl kb! :)

TIG     Great " Dad" jokes  ;D ;D

KAREN   Googled Olive and Cocoa - Very high end but beautiful things attractively packaged.

LISA  That's great  - Then you can go all out on a cute little girl theme  ;) ;)

BAZI    LOLOL   " It's been a long week"   Wondered when we would hear about the new frig.  Not too long now and life will be back to normal.  Nice walk today  :D   I'm with you Bazi.  Leftovers never bothered me.  Besides, I hate wasting food - Comes from depression parents... ::)

LORI  Beautiful prayer for our animal friends.  Was not familiar with Andria. Thanks for the info.   "Worst poker face ever"  ;D ;D

KB   That great gray is stunning.  I love owls.

Well I got my hair cut yesterday in my friends home.  We wore masks as her hubby tested + two days before but she was -.   She texted me tonight - she's + now.  Cold symptoms.  Let's hope the masks worked.  I have so much coming up  Yikes.

Nice festive greetings this morning folks.
This missy was raised on leftover meals. Every Friday night a smorgasbord.  ;D


OldGuy/ Eagles  Tks.  for thinking of me.  {{}}  But Since I don't have my car anymore  as Jim took it over---right now,
I don't look pretty enough  to be seen I can't do the salon 'thingy' .  :(

{{{Tig}}} lovely memory of your dad.  May he 'rest in peace'. 

Tsk Cool you have a Cooper's Hawk--- :( :( for  the breakfast.   You're a blessing ---I did the mask suggestion. {{}} It worked perfectly.
I'm sold and won't ever forget.  ;)

Puff the other day in Cheers I did see your menltion about not bending straight over---which was a very well timed reminder of the same I was told
when I tripped at Michaels in Cool Springs a few years back. The impact of the concussion ruptured the skin  beneather my left eyebrow---you may recall.
Anyway, many thanks for the reminder. {{{}}}

KB  I have that very game loaded on my desktop PC for Maggie. She's been years playig it.   Good idea for Lisa. Gone nutz over that Snowman in bath tub. What an imaginative 'night light' .  ;)

Lori of course prayers for Bald Eagle Mom {{{Andria}}}. Please do share whateve news on her you may receive.  Not surprized if it coninues to struggle they'll close that nest's cam down. Happy Friday to you, too.

Bazi  You're telling me it's been a  l-o-n-g week !?    Thanks--- Some time back I had thought it a good idea to keep dry shampoo for myself (in case) and Maggie for that matter. Time got away from me. And well we all know how that goes.  ;)

Tsk Oh no! Hopeing you'll be okay and won't have brought anything home to Tim and Lulu.

Dina 5-23-21  :-* I miss you so much.

Latest update on Andria at Kisatchie National Forest via facebook... We are praying for you sweet girl!💜
Kisatchie National Forest Eagle Cam Fans Facebook link https://www.facebook.com/groups/1106311276803033/?hoisted_section_header_type=recently_seen&multi_permalinks=1523592338408256
latest update today...
POST FOR UPDATES ON ANDRIA:

This pinned post will be the only place in the group for updates regarding Andria and the health issue that she is having - this will serve to keep all questions and answers in one place. Please check back here for updates - I don't think FB notifies when posts are edited so you'll have to scroll. I will add any updates to the bottom.

E-3: Just after noon today Andria appeared to be trying to cast a pellet and then had what appeared to be a seizure on the nest. A few minutes later she was able to cast a huge pellet. But she does still show signs of something not being "right" with her.
KNF's Wildlife Biologist, Steve, and Wildlife Technician, Cody, are aware of the situation and are keeping watch.
KNF has put out this statement: "2:20 PM bald eagle - ​We understand that Andria is having health problems at this time. If she falls from the tree, we will be able to retrieve her and get her to help. We will not intervene by climbing the tree."
Please try not to speculate at this time as the only way to know for certain what caused the health issues in Andria is to have tests run.
While this is certainly not anything we expected to happen, we just have to watch Andria to see how she is faring.

As for outlawing hunting, will never happen, should never happen, as an avid hunter/fisherman, I would advocate strongly against it. Outlawing lead would be good, even if that's not what's ailing her.

Here is RhondaandCraig's video of the event from yesterday, December 7, 2023 that made it known that there was a definite issue going on with Andria. Warning: this is hard to watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iBsE22Xmug

a sweet post via fb user💜
The first picture is where Andria has been sitting and watching her eggs. I witnessed this beautiful momma as she mustered up her strength and stumbled to her eggs. She gently placed her feet around the eggs, and settled upon them. She has been a good, gentle momma. Nature is gentle and beautiful, but also wild and untameable.

I am not going to watch anymore of Kisatchie National Forest Eagle Cam but I will update you on Andria's status.  Our  Beautiful Beak room is a great place to discuss Eagles and off topic items and I truly believe the prayers we have all sent out as a group have helped our sweet raptors and all fur & feather babies!! I will light a candle for her in Lani's prayer link.  That's all we can do for her right now...  :'(  Thank you for the prayers, all of you are a blessing!  ;)
