live osprey cam

Live osprey cam, he's looking all around while she sits keeping three eggs warm. Yesterday I watched her stand up, adjust the eggs, nestle back down in various positions while he was away. I don't suppose she's gazing adoringly at him, do birds do that, IDK. The website says osprey nests may weigh 200 pounds. Yesterday I watched her, as she sat facing me, shred a piece of wood or something, making it into soft material.

Sunday after church: best cheese & chocolate event imaginable, great variety of cheeses and I tasted the most delicious red velvet cake ever, cupcake size. Home to 2/3 martini and the tiny bit of cheese I brought home. Late lunch: perfect hamburger of 97% beef, med-rare on toasted w/w bun, mayo, bit of cheddar, slice tomato, thin slice raw onion. Afternoon, watched The Lost Battalion and started A Bridge Too Far but which is WW2 and doesn't fit the book I'm reading; earlier watched The Dirty Dozen, a lousy movie even with couple star actors, but I've always liked the ending with the good guys jumping off the rolling train pushing the railway tanker car of gasoline heading for the evil German blockade, lots of hellfire. Late, got onto the osprey nest and couldn't let it go. Not sure, but I think the eggs are new. Sunday afternoon and evening weather slid off into pelting rain with Bay County and others under tornado watch including when I went to bed at 8:30. Supper: heart pills and huge mug ice water thence up at 11:58 and 2:45.

She looks asleep, can't see him, I'll bet he has a girlfriend, you know how birds are.

TGBC this morning finishes Acts 10 story of Peter's vision, the angel, and Cornelius: 


Acts 10:34-48
Gentiles Hear the Good News

 Then Peter began to speak to them: ‘I truly understand that God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him. You know the message he sent to the people of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all. That message spread throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John announced: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power; how he went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. We are witnesses to all that he did both in Judea and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree; but God raised him on the third day and allowed him to appear, not to all the people but to us who were chosen by God as witnesses, and who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one ordained by God as judge of the living and the dead. All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.’

Gentiles Receive the Holy Spirit


 While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who heard the word. The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astounded that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles, for they heard them speaking in tongues and extolling God. Then Peter said, ‘Can anyone withhold the water for baptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?’ So he ordered them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they invited him to stay for several days.
