2 at nest now. Harlie and Quest no doubt.

Maybe Quest and Kendal bowing? Wish we could zoom in!

Kris you took the words right out of my mouth again!    Well I guess great minds think alike huh?  

 

I don't know, right before the 2 were in the nest, I saw Harlie running back and forth on the ledge to the right of the nest. I know Kendal wouldn't do that, that's Juvie behavior. Then again, what do I know!

Harlie and Quest were probably jabbering at Kendal to bring some food!

  That gull almost looks like it has lipstick on it's beak! 

  COOL!   

   That first pic is the coolest thing I've ever seen as far as raptor pics go!  Thank you so much Bobbie! 

In terms of advertising budgets, 30K isn't that much.  Everyone involved really was damned if they did and damned if they didn't.  The non-intervention people would have been furious if help had been given to Happy Feet up front and now the intervention people aren't happy because intervention wasn't given instantly and now the 30K cost!  In terms of awareness and free good-faith attention, Happy Feet's plight has been priceless - people ask me about Happy Feet.

Isn't awareness what the ultimate goal is?

 ???   Or is it??

It is Janet but there's always that bottom line! Money makes the world go 'round!!! 

 

  And just think Donna, one fifth of the posts are yours!!!  Keep 'em comin' girl! 

Not to mention that if they had rescued this poor baby before he ate all that sand and those twigs, it wouldn't have cost this much

Exactly Jeanne! 

Thanks to Kris G re the Modify option! I will be sure to give it a try - I will have to!!

  I've used it quite a bit myself!

we love you MAK--thanks

Aww, I love them too!   

Depends on the size of it! Use protective clothing and do this after dark, as they are dormant. Get a jar bigger than the nest and gently place the opening over the nest. The nest and wasps should all be in the jar at this point. Use a scraper to unhook the nest and cover. Then do what you want with the nest! The woods is a good release point. Found this video.

That went pretty smooth!
