Jackie’s like, ‘What the heck?’ with Shadow draping his tail feathers on her face. Even tho no new eaglets this time, with everything happening on the nest, the view of the lake, and the majesty of this pair, we can never, ever say, ‘Nothing to see here.’ TYSM @Cali Condor. Whether or not there is a new generation this year, this IS a success story. Appreciate how your thoughtful videos help to tell it.
They have been such hardworking and determined parents. They set a fine example for humans to follow. I am grieved at their loss but not like they must grieve. Truly beautiful creatures. 😥🐣
Thank you for sharing Sandy's heartfelt message with us, Cali. While it is sad to conclude that the eggs won't hatch 💔, we must trust that nature knows best. We still have Jackie and Shadow💕, two very gorgeous eagles indeed. Shadow's antics with the antlered sticks will always put a 😊on my face and Jackie's chortles 🎶will always fill me with delight. Thank you and FOBBV for allowing us to be such close observers. It is privilege and much appreciated by all of us. SED all.
Shadow, Shadow, Shadow, you really out did yourself with the "Antler Stick" I laughed so hard watching you with this crazy stick. Gotta love our Shadman! ♥
So hard to get comfortable with the construction crew walking all over you😄 These two are perfect for each other! Very sad to hear they wont be adding to the their family this year, especially after so much hard work during the incubation period. I like to imagine that the wily adolescent eagle we keep seeing is Spirit, and I'm enjoying seeing her either stealing or attempting to steal food from mom & dad....I could watch those antics all summer! ❤
I'm still hopeful... They must feel something hopefully and that's why they still sit (lay) on them. Yes it's true they will lay there even after a few weeks.. but maybe mother nature is on their side this time around and waiting for the weather to be much better so that the eaglets don't have to endure this super cold weather.. even if it warms up a few degrees and have less snow in their nest. Hey we can be hopeful right? Who's with me 😎
Thank you Shadow. As tough as it is out there on that tree with the winds and ❄️ you put so many smiles on our faces 😊 and made us laugh 😂. I love you both Shadow and Jackie 😘💕
@@lisat9802 I thought they usually go to another tree and sometimes FOBBV shows the other tree.. I know I saw her on the nest yesterday.. she probably knows the eggs aren't viable or she just needed a break after staying on the nest for so long during the storm! It's a scary thought for another Eagle to have gone missing.. to many eagles, birds period leaving the nest to not return.. I hear its been a weird season for the Eagles all over
Typical shadow with his sticks. No babies to catch food for his board. I am thankful that the eggs were not fertile. my fear would have been that the eaglets would not have survived with our winter this year and that would’ve been really sad and upsetting. Thank you big bear Valley cam, and all that is involves allowing us to view our favorite couple, shadow and Jackie. they are still very fun to view with shadows antidotes with sticks, dragging them over Jackie and Jackie saying what up. It will be interesting once the snow starts to melt to see what happens.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😘❣️❣️🌹🌹😘
😥 I hope that when this weather calms down considerably, that maybe Jackie & Shadow can try again for eaglets 🙏🙏 TY Cali/FOBBV.... Gotta love the sticks he finds.😂
Tough conditions to be born in. Could be best. Eagle population is thriving! And these cams placed throughout USA and Canada are giving us an education we would never have had! It’s easy to over humanize these magnificent birds. They will soldier on with their instinctual intelligence. 💪🏼
Jackie's thinking, "Hey where are you going to put that stick?! Stop laying your tail feathers on my head. You're annoying Shadow!" I feel for them since the eggs might not be viable. I'm not sure if Jackie could lay anymore eggs at this time. Prayers for Jackie and Shadow for the future.
🙏🦅💙🦅💙So sorry the eggs won’t hatch but nature is harsh as well as beautiful . We’re sad though but hoping next season will be a success. Thank you Cali Sometimes due to work I’m unable to stay right at the minute so very thankful for your videos 🙏
As the Greatest Show on Earth winds down, I hope you and the other moderators can get a well deserved break. The mental picture I get is of all the mods and everyone else producing this show working out of the same building nearby the nest in the freezing weather. Then I laugh and tell myself no, they're each at home or somewhere else, maybe even out of state, each sharing their time snug as a bug. I'm a late arrival to the show even though YT has shown me the Eagle Cam blurbs every time I visit UA-cam. I had no idea Welcome to HTC would flash onscreen, a mission bell would ring, and a hissing voice would tell me we haven't had that Spirit here since 2022 and to relax, I could check out any time I'd like but faded into I could never leave. It was right.
💔My heartaches for them this season. While we did have our smiling moments with these two, it was/is a stressful time watching incubation during this unprecedented snowfall 🌬️❄️❄️. Thank you for cementing what many of us were already thinking. At present time, I would be happy if the ravens came, so Jackie/esp Shadow can go on about there business 💞 ~ 🦜
Have the Eagle Researchers tracked how often eggs hatch and how often not? What is the percentages? Have they changed over time due to stresses and over population of people?
We always have this silly pair to keep us entertained, kids or no kids! What’s up at the West End Catalina nest? Thunder and Akechet (think that is spelled wrong….)
The weather could play a part in it. She may just be trying to rest somewhere else for the night. I don’t think Eagles have any known predators right ?
Shadow you are so funny Hunny! 😅🥰🦅🌟 Jackie’s like Dear you are sitting on my head! 😅 I Love Shadow sitting quietly with Jackie...made me cry like a baby, they have to be so sad! I Love J&S So Much! ❤️🦅🦅❤️

Nature knows best. Let's hope next year will be a better one for Jackie and Shadow, and better weather for those in California.

Such a beautiful love story.

Thank you Shadow. As tough as it is out there on that tree with the winds and ❄️ you put so many smiles on our faces 😊 and made us laugh 😂. I love you both Shadow and Jackie 😘💕
Thanks for the update Cali and FOBBV! We still love watching Jackie and Shadow and their behavior at the nest.
Prayers for the safe return of Jackie🙏
Is it not normal ?
Jackie is roosting in a near by tree. She is fine and this is perfectly normal. Shadow is loving his overnight shift on the nest ♥
@@lisat9802 Thank you so much for the update. What a relief 😌

The brooder asks for a change or🐟. There's always big blizzards and winds hard to hatch 🦅❄️. Thanks Cali Condor.
We can thank our government for weather control on that one.

I'm so sad for them.
Thank you for the update Cali. Have they ever double clutched?
So sorry to hear about the eggs. But our beautiful eagle friends remain!! Hope to keep seeing these 2 or others .
Thanks for writing and explaining so well. I love watching these two. i wish them well.
Thank you for the note, Sandy. You're a treasure, you are.
Shadow is so funny😀😀
Shadow is getting artistic with his sticks.
Yes he is - he's obsessed with his sticks! That last one was s good one. - Stephanie

I hope all is well with theee two jackie left and never came back..I believe that's shadow on the nest...🙏please give us a update.
Why does Jackie have blood on her beak after sniffing Shadow's... ahem... backside?
Can someone go up and remove the eggs?
Nature will do that, humans do NOT get involved we simply watch
Is it okay that Jackie has been gone a while? Has she done this before ?
I’m quite worried, she always returns within 4-5 hours and is always there for her night shift!!!!
No I haven’t seen her do this. It’s odd she isn’t on the nest tonight.
The weather could play a part in it. She may just be trying to rest somewhere else for the night. I don’t think Eagles have any known predators right ?
@@rileybear836 owls. But the owls usually can’t hurt an adult Eagle.
Shadow you are so funny Hunny! 😅🥰🦅🌟 Jackie’s like Dear you are sitting on my head! 😅 I Love Shadow sitting quietly with Jackie...made me cry like a baby, they have to be so sad! I Love J&S So Much!
