The eagle is kept in a big net-like enclosure. and it has a nice big tree to hop around in.

Great pic...and gorgeous bird
We have them wild in this area; they are a rare sight that takes your breath away...especially when seen in flight close up

Have a blessed SONday everyone

To see them in the wild must be WONDERFUL! I went to church, surprise, surprise...there is a new group meeting at the High School...an Anglican church...I really liked it...surprise, surprise...plan and hope to visit there for a few weeks.

I downloaded FireFox today and am using it again...hhhmmmm, have not used it for a while.

Also gave Gracie a bath.

 

[davedajobauk]

I have had Firefox for some time now
and, used it or, Safari, every time IE8 got sticky or, broke down

Nowadays, I have an Anti-Keylogger / Anti-man in Browser, attached to IE8
and, guess what ?...... no IE8 stickiness or, breakdowns, ever since

Gracie doubtless, enjoyed that 'cooling off'


dave

 

[angelwind]

Gracie does enjoy her bath....it doesn't take long to give her one either.

I could not do some editing on Blogger due to a security filter...so got it done with FF...I will see how PB works with FF...IE 9 locks up a lot over there.

 

[servant of Merciful Love]

I hope you enjoy your new church group Shirley

We have used firefox for some time now and enjoy it.
Occasionally a program won't work with it, but we just pull up IE and run it there.
They have great pop up add ons that even block all the ads on CF

 

[davedajobauk]

Do you not have the ability... to make IE9 compatible with older systems
I can do this with IE8 [?]

IE9 cannot be installed on any PC not running Windows 7
and my PC is not able to install Windows 7 [inadequate motherboard]

If, I remain as 'poor' as I presently am....
I may have to give up the internet, in 2014
which is when, my version XP, has it's support from Microsoft withdrawn

I don't know Dave, I have a new pc with a lot of bells and whistles...I hope something changes for you, you enjoy your internet so much.

I will most likely use both browsers too.....

I hear you; we have the same concern (media costs are so expensive here too!)
Praying you find the means to stay online

I have IE9, 64 bit, but the CF server must be a little behind, it took Flash Player over a year to catch up with the new technology of a 64 bit browser, so I use Google Chrome when I come on CF now, and it works like a charm.

I have IE9, 64 bit too, but CF usually works fine for me...so you like Google Chrome, not too many folks are using that.

 

[stelow]

I only use Google Chrome on CF, and I understand from speaking with Administration here on this site, I am not the only one, that has problems using IE9 on CF. I have no complaints about Google Chrome, but I use IE9, 64 bit everywhere else on the web.

 

[davedajobauk]

Maybe, Mary and I can continue to use XP ~past the end of 'XP lifetime support' [?]

I am downloading [and saveing... COPIES]
of, all the Service Packs and Updates up-to the withdrawal of support
Then I will save a COPY [or two] of the 'newly installed operating systems' [as 'back-ups']

If we are then ABLE, to afford a Windows 7 /8 computer [between us]
we can continue to run XP.... [in a network]
and place the newer computer between us and the modem / internet

This idea, may of course, see us falling foul
of, those sites ~that ditch, their XP compatibility

But it will, 'enable us' to function [here] for-longer
AFTER THAT [?] we may have-to 'TAKE TURNS' for access [fingers crossed]

That is interesting, thanks. I am finding IE9 to be very slow lately...am going to ask my son, the techi, what may be going on.
