Another Mother Has Been Lost...

..but this is a mother of a different kind...

I have been following the Eagle Nest at Norfolk Botanical Garden for a few seasons now.  This nest has brought me much joy and many friendships along the way - so I am saddened to inform some of you that the "Norfolk Mom" has joined my own Mom in the heavens exactly 10 days after my Mom's death.   You can read the news story here.  


This pair of Bald Eagle Parents have successfully had multiple seasons with 3 eaglets...
 

    ..and this year started out in similar fashion.  The eaglets were removed on Wednesday with some controversy.  Ed Clark of WCV conducted an online discussion today providing information that should help calm many. You can read a transcript here.  Please read it if you have any doubts about the eaglets being removed.


I would now like to recommend that many of us should donate to WCV to help raise and support the "2011 Garden of Eagle Nest Kids"  This is definitely a "family" in need.
