When the remodeling is done, the fresh coat of paint is on the wall or that little "honey do" project is complete what do you do with the left over paint?  Well, if you're me...it sits in the corner of the garage and collects dust because you can't just throw it away.  Now the City of Tyler is hosting a Paint Recycling Day on Saturday (May 14th).

The third bald eagle egg hatched last night!  The live streaming video had mezmorized many of us!  We have been caught by the awesomeness of mother nature, I'm one of them!  I remember a few years ago when this very thing happened right here in East Texas in Smith county on FM 2661 near Lake Palestine.  We were then mezmorized by them, but we didn't have this kind of access to see the eagles in our neck of the woods.

As I was watching this while writing this last night I could hear the wolves off in the background - totally awesome!

Watch the live stream of the eagle family live from their cottonwood tree and see what they're up to at any time right after the jump!
How often have you been catching up on these eagles?
