Absolutely amazing display of cooperation by both couples. Jackie defended herself brilliantly while calling out (I've got this -- I'm OK) until she felt the need for assistance, chortling for Shadow, who appeared instantly. The ravens were equally amazing, but I'm always on the side of J & S, ha ha! Great video!
I was worried at first, ravens are such intelligent birds and they certainly wanted those eggs. Glad shadow showed up.
They'll be busy with that for the next several weeks. The word's out about those eggs.
My heart was beating so fast and I'm sure hers was too!!
Amazing how Jackie stood her ground and would not be fooled into moving off the eggs.
Shadow, was adorable when he stepped on the nest and kept looking at her! ❤️
Thank you for the video, Cali Condor!
Be blessed! 🙏😻🦅🥚🥰🥚🦅💕
I’ve always felt so proud of eagles but Bald Eagles are my favorite. In a way you can say our family identifies with eagles because the word “eagles” in Spanish is “águila” and my family’s sur name is “Aguilera” meaning Eagles Nest so we’ve always felt eagles are our mascot 😊. I recently stumbled across Jackie and Shadow on TikTok and I immediately became a fan and now I don’t miss FOBBV videos on UA-cam. This is the first time I saw this particular video with the ravens and let me tell you, my pride for eagles has just gone to another level!!! Their parenting skills and the way they fiercely defend their offspring is beyond amazing!!! Eagles forever!!!! 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
Once she did her alarm call he was on his way!
It took him a minute and my heart was hurting for momma..I felt so much better when I saw Shadow come to the rescue!!❤❤❤
She told Shadow to take over she wanted to go get a piece of those ravens asses!!!! Great job, Mama Jackie!!! Kick their asses!!!
She told him a I just need to "go for a fly to cool down" And if the anyone ask I been in the nest ok 😉
Literally- her instincts tell her she must kill them for survival of her eggs.
That was intense! Those ravens can be clever but not as clever as Mama Jackie. She knew what they were trying to do. Shadow's rescue was impressive. Once it was over, I could just hear Jackie telling him how scared she had been for their eggs. She needed a break after all of that stress so I'm glad she let Shadow take some incubation time. Thanks for a video that kept me on the edge of my seat, Cali.😟
Maybe she went out for revenge. 😂
@@greymatters7039 I did wonder the same thing.
@@greymatters7039
I hope so, she needs to capture and leave its carcass on the raven nest, show them who’s boss! She was really having to defend her nest and eggs!
@@greymatters7039 That's what I think, heard some ravens yelling shortly after she left...good girl, go get em!
Payback time!
I'm glad I didn't watch this live and knew the outcome before I watched. STRONG MAMA and SUPER DAD! Thank goodness.
Hello dear friend , hope you're have a nice day over there with you uh ..
I would have passed out.
Jackie was incredibly intense and beautiful. Her head and eye positions, along with her “don’t mess with me” call, did all mothers proud.
don't mess with me? wow you speak eagle? Or is that your humanizing emotions?
Some folks always have to be messin about
@@OregonCrow do you understand quotation marks? SMH
…… & should be: “is that YOU humanizing emotions”. However, we know grammar isn’t your strong suit. SMH.. again.
News: eagles’. Calls are very specific. Try studying them sometime, as there are people who understand “eagle”. Not me, but I’m great at “dog”.
Yes! I was saying in my head every time she slapped them "you are NOT touching my babies!"
Those damn ravens just don’t know when to quit! Luckily Jackie and Shadow are the most fierce Eagle couple ever! Jackie knows their tricks and to never leave the eggs! She defends the eggs While Shadow comes in for the attack and chases the brutes away! The dynamic duo of Jackie and Shadow is unstoppable! ⚔
Hopefully humans watching this will learn to take care of their own too.
@@earlysda You are weird
Shadow is so sweet getting close to her to see if she's ok ❤️❤️
Love how Shadow guarded and consoled Jackie until she felt safe to leave for a time and let Shadow sit on the eggs. Loving display.
She went to go find those dirty bastards!!!!
She knows those darn Ravens have eaten her eggs so many times and they are relentless!!!! Hang in momma, my heart breaks for her …. 🥲🥲🥲🥲
Great to see a mother that cares about her babies lol 😂. They actually seem civilized and not savages like alot of people out there😂.
Cali, thank you. They are an amazing team. I got teary eyed watching Jackie protecting her eggs and then Shadow coming to her rescue. I truly love them so. ♥️
Yes so did I watching what she was going through was breaking my heart!! 😢😢❤
Eagles are One of the most amazing birds. Seeing the male chase down other ravens before coming to the tree was pretty cool to see
Great defense from Jackie &her wingslaps...no one is going to take her precious eggs, and Shadow flies in to help defend the nest ! Very seasoned couple who know how to protect their nest. Great video, Cali.....sometimes nature is hard to observe, but it turned out fine for seasoned professionals like Jackie & Shadow
Oh bless this has to be the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. Stumbled across this and now watching all I can. Aussie here falling in love with your Native bird ❤
They are simply MAGNIFICENT, enjoy!!! 🦅🦅🤎🤍🤎🤍
My hat goes out to Jackie👏🏻 What an amazing mom she is in defending her nest. She so strong and brave. Loving the these amazing, powerful and beautiful bald eagles 🦅
Nonsense. That’s normal behavior for every animal.
Wow, way to use every single parroted, clichéd word that has been so overused today, each one has lost all meaning.
@@kmokatz Awesome?
Watching it live was scary, I never doubt our eagles though. Watching on both cameras really showed the raven's aggression. 🦅💚 🦅
When she is on the nest it doesn't really scare me because I know she is going give 'em hell BUT when they are both off the nest and I hear ravens I start to panic.
@@Yennefer1173 me too! It was interesting to learn that the eggs and the eagles can get too hot and need cool off periods. They are never far away and always have their 👀 on those eggs. Aren't we lucky to be able to watch them
It's interesting to see how instinctual protecting our little copies are
@@metri0n ??? What
@@metri0n for animals it is integral. Humans not so much.
You can sure hear her calls change as she becomes more concerned. She gets louder and higher in pitch.
Both of them are beautiful. I hope their eggs hatch and fledge successfully.
7:55 Shadow enters nest: Ok i think they're gone, are you ok babe, the eggs good?
Jackie: yeah, just a little tense right now
10:13 Jackie: Watch the eggs, I need to stretch my wings after all that smacking I just laid down.
These videos are absolutely beautiful to watch. I love listening to the different cries and seeing how they communicate.
The ravens are the Hawk size neighbors, who are very clever, you could see them coming in from all angles, trying to flush Jackie out. Jackie and Shadow are an experienced team, and nothing will separate them from their precious eggs. How hard they work to bring another generation of azure warriors into this world.
Bless and protect them both.🦅🎁🙏
It would be nice if humans would learn from them how to protect their own.
It would be nice if humans didn't try to hurt other humans.
@@paulhofer2399 It would be nice if humans didn't try to hurt anything.
they do protect their own it’s called war- humans need to learn how to stop acting like and looking for models from … animals SMH lol
I love how they swapped out at the end. I assume she said "You watch the kids, I'm gonna go kick some raven tail."
Wow THAT was intense. Where were you shadow? Jackie’s wings will be sore for a week. Those were not Fiona slaps. Bless her heart! 🦅🦅🦅
I wonder if he was eyeing the lake for a fish from a tree .
I, too, felt for her on account of all that serious wing work! I was even worried she might damage them. But she was built for this and so, is fine ☺️
Strong independent female eagle didn't need no man until she did
@@bofasofa9399it’s not about man or woman, these are eagles and they both protect each other. These types of comments just…anyway.
Shadow to the rescue! Boy they are pretty cheeky those Ravens 😮Thanks Cali Condor ❤
Shadow is so sweet with the eggs. He could crush them in one claw with no effort, yet he is almost dainty as he settles over them to protect. People say they do this out of instinct, but I personally believe that they understand it's a baby eaglet. It's still in the shell, but they know they are already parents, and they love the hatchling.
It’s not hard, watching them relate, to think they have feelings besides instinct…I like to think they do! After all, as humans, isn’t the bonding we do with our own babies and family meant to continue our species?
That was intense, indeed! Those ravens weren't giving up.
Magnificent birds. So lucky to see them on video here. Thank you from Western Australia.
"I need a Jamba Juice right now" says Jackie after all that stress! Shadow is such a good hubby, he defended his family AND took over the egg-sitting. Love!
First time watching. Very interesting and just to see the differences in wildlife survival. So humanly real. Thanks to the person who took the time and effort to present this.
I got to love Shadow as well❤What an amazing father and mate he his
Well, My blood pressure just went way up. That was intense!!!
Quite a Show--Eagles and Ravens. The old 1-2 Punch executed to a "t" with Bonded Pair (H &W) Ravens doing an even better job than the Pair did this time last year. Cam 2 shows both Ravens landing in tree at same time ,catching J's attention from two different directions. She calls for backup and S lands on Outboard limb and then steps into the nest--knowing what they want is sitting under Jackie. Neither he nor J move, and Ravens finally flew off. Experience is knowing what to do and when. Our Pair are getting better at the 'Raven ' Game.
Hi 👋. I love 💕 watching her. She's such a good Mom.
Hello dear friend , hope you're have a nice day over there with you uh ..
Wow! Those Ravens are bold! Great job, Jackie, fighting them off but staying on the eggs. Shadow came to the rescue!
Shadow back there chasing that raven down like a G!
Takes two mighty birds of prey to fend off sketchy ravens! They are so devious!
One of them is enough for them but what you don't realize is that, they were trying to distract her from the nest, the other crow would've taken the chicks if she chased the one annoying her and the mother eagle knew what they were trying to do, so she stood her ground until her mate arrived.
Doth quote the Mama, "NEVERMORE!"
Those ravens are very brave to aggravate a nesting bald eagle!
Jackie, you go girl! Those ravens were so insistent! Thanks Papa Shadow.. This was awesome to see. What a privilege ❤❤❤
You GO Mama Jackie!!! :) Those Ravens better fly away, Jackie is NOT moving! lol
So AMAZING!! xox
Hello dear friend , hope you're have a nice day over there with you uh ..
Eagle parents are amazing! She is protecting her eggs like a war hero❤❤❤❤
Shadow didn’t have time to stop at the lake for groceries. He had to get home straight away to help mom. Then he is such a nice guy he took over egg sitting duty. What a guy!
Lol😂 true
I love Ravens, they are beautiful but these guys are daring and now getting quite bold and aggressive! So happy to see Shadow to the rescue. Watch out Ravens, mama Jackie is in the air!
I got caught up by that wonderful smile of yours...?
Fascinating interaction with the ravens! They thought they could tag-team Jackie off the nest, but Jackie is no stranger to ravens and their sneaky tricks! Yes, the ravens were bold, but there was no way they could dislodge Jackie off that nest! She will barely get up for Shadow to incubate. No way that mama Jackie was moving anywhere. Once Shadow came in, it was basically over. The ravens hung around just a bit for final harassment, but they knew with 2 eagles at the nest they had no chance for nest invasion. I also heard raven vocals right after Jackie left the nest. I can imagine she showed herself to them and perhaps even gave chase to further escort them away. GREAT teamwork by Jackie and Shadow!!
Jackie is fearless! And that slide down the stick to Jackie's side by Shadow was awesome. He's such a cool dude 😎
Fearless? She looked terrified.
Its amazing to watch Jackie, she is determined to keep her babies safe.. Between her and Shadow, nothing is getting to their eggs. 🙏
Would that humans would be as protective of their own.
Hello how are you doing today.. Happy new year...?
A true power couple. Both are fearless and strong--awesome to watch.❤🦅❤
In addition to never being covered with snow and having my spouse put fish on my back while pregnant, I was never mobbed by ravens! Lol! Eagles have it rough!
Absolutely Amazing ❤❤❤❤
I held my breath the whole time! Wow! Way to go Jackie protecting those precious 💕 eggs! Shadow comes to the rescue!
Thanks Cali🌷💞🌺
Dont blame the Ravens. They need food too, this is the game of nature. since the beginning of life. In turn, eagles would eat ravens eggs too.
Watching Mama relentlessly defending the nest is an impressive sight. She knows their tricks and dont fall for them. Impressive to hear her call for her mate when things got heated. And Dad arrives in no time to end the threat. Impressive.
I agree. It makes no sense to morally judge these animals, which I think a lot of people are doing here.
@@istvanfoy-roberts868 Indeed there is no morality in nature, only the fight to protect the species. Jackie would kill raven hatchlings without any hesitation to feed her coming own hatchlings and visa versa. This is as it always been, this is neither good nor evil, its just nature.
@@istvanfoy-roberts868 The anthropomorphism going on in all these comments is rampant.
This basically an example of how nature is both beautiful and terrifying. It's just life. Ravens need to eat; nature designed them to be carnivores. Eagles eat fish; the fish probably aren't thrilled. Sometimes prey escapes or is defended and sometimes predators get the meal.
This go around, the ravens had to order takeout instead of having eggs. It's simple nature.
@@MsDemonBunny You speak wisdom - but btw eagles eat everything, not just fish.
Thanks Cali for such a suspenseful video! Great job Mama Jackie not falling to tHa Raven's tricks and defending her eggs! Papa Shadow must have been on tHa otherside of tHa Lake... 🎣 for dinner! I suspect that Mama Jackie plans on chasing down those pesty black birdies and seeing what they think of her wing slaps up close and personal! Time to serve up and eat some "crow"!
Wow, another great video! Thank you so much!❤️🦅🦅
Poor Jackie😢 she fought for her eggs. What an awesome momma she is ❤️
Never have I felt such goosebump when Shadow flies in after the intruder like, do not lay a finger on my queen and our eggs. Both Jackie and Shadow are amazing parents.
Jackie definitely went after the Ravens, in the video they were right after Jackie flew off in one direction the Ravens were squawking pretty loudly.
Yes! Shadow!😊
Wow, she kept slapping at them when they were on the front branch and they just kept coming back. Good chase
My new favorite thing to do for therapy. Thank you for this. Helps ease my mind and soul.
WOW! Those Ravens are relentless! They’ve got their nerve messing with the large Bald Eagles! I hope the eggs didn’t get cracked during all the wing slaps. After Jackie took off for a much needs break, you could hear the Ravens in the background probably cursing her! Way to go Jackie & Shadow! 🦅 🦅 🥚🥚🥰👍🏻
I got caught up by that wonderful smile of yours...? How are you doing today...?
They are the best team of parents!!! Love them♥️💙
It felt like Shadow took forever to get to the nest.
Maybe he was away hunting didnt hear her calls initially. They have a large territory to protect and to find food.
@@KiwiKiwi902 yes their territory is large, at least a square mile from what I understand, and he often flies out over the lake. Those ravens would not be getting any closer than a wingslap's distance to the eggs though. She was in no danger from the ravens with her powerful wingslaps with her 8 foot wingspan!!
@@AngieTX 8 feet?!?! Holy molly!!
3:59 she starts calling for Shadow and at 5:03 / 5:04 we catch sight of Shadow . So he lands on the front porch at 5:40 about one minute and 4 /5 seconds for him to come to the rescue and about 1 minute 41 seconds to land on the front porch.
@@Yennefer1173 He almost got the crow there.
Wow, the camera placement and window into these amazing creatures is incredible. Thanks to those that made this possible. Glad Mama Jackie and her eggs are OK presently.
Thanks for the video with the wide angle! I saw it as it was happening and was worried they’d gang up on her and get her off the nest. That was intense. Awesome Shadow to the rescue! ❤😮😅
This was amazing footage. Hooray for Shadow and Jackie. Excellent caretakers and watching each other's backs.
Wow. Had no idea that ravens would be so aggressive. Jackie was just incredible defending her next. Thank God Shadow came!
Nice! 3:50 mom calls dad
Excellent video capture! Thank for sharing on both cameras too. They're a great team by working together for the benefit of their offspring.
You did a good job of lining those two videos up perfectly.
I had to turn the volume off -- Jackie's distress calls freaked out my cats sitting with me. / I love ravens n crows, but darn! Glad Jackie n Shadow were able to fend them off!
It's so cool seeing them fly in the background.
Glad Shadow finally showed up! Momma needed a break!
That gang of punk ravens are no match for our Mama Jackie and Papa Shadow!!
Even though it felt like eternity, Shadow was running them off with his impressive aeronautical defensive skills (I could watch him soar all day) in just over 1 minute after Jackie sounded her "Emergency Alarm" calling for her hubby 3:53
Poor dear. She was so stressed out afterward - Shadow knew his wife's nerves were "shot".....Came over to her side after ensuring the gang was no longer an immediate threat to check on her. Then the ultimate reward: nest time brooding for Shadow 😁
❤️ Good job Jackie. It was so intense watching it live🦅❤️
Wow they were really trying to steal her eggs!
She was probably taking him to task, where were you?? He says, on the other side of town momma getting you some fish!! Got here as fast as I could! Lol
Maybe that is my impression, but it looks like this year the ravens visits are happening much more often than last season and more aggressively. I hope they learned their lesson and will give up in visiting the nest again.
That was awesome to watch!
What a good momma. ❤ what a good dad and both beautiful birds.
Jackie had always been a fierce protector! Those wings!!! 😍🦅🥚
Jackie was fierce! Not long after her call for help Shadow arrives and the ravens decide to leave. Does my heart good ❤
Thanks Cali Condor for really sharing this is amazing, Mama Jacky's defense and Dad Shadow rescue are a great team
At around the 5 min mark sounded like the ravens were gently meowing lol
Her calls for Shadow to come help were amazing. But I have to give those ravens credit. They are relentless and have no fear taking on a much bigger bird.
Wow, what a team. They've learned well from '21 and made a united front. Well done to both of them.
What happened in 21. I only found this channel and their beautiful bits last year
@Recall Pit - Also the year before or after that one - one time Jackie had to leave the nest - had to be something urgent) - Shadow wasn't around and the Ravens got both eggs. Same thing happened in the next year Shadow left the nest alone too long and they opened one egg almost ready to hatch and took it. Can't remember if the other egg was in same timeframe - they took it too.
Last year they had
Spirit 🩷 a very fitting name for her :) The other egg never hatched.- Stephanie
I got caught up by that wonderful smile of yours...?
O my lands. She has to be kung fu fighting whilst simultaneously safeguarding her eggs intact. Precious Jackie & Egglings & Shadow. It is hard to hear Jackie under such duress. She did an excellent job.
Cripes, I think I need a tranquilizer after watching that! It's shocking to see how persistently aggressive those ravens are. I thought Shadow was never going to get there in time. Poor Jackie, but what a mom!!! And it's incredible that with the size of her feet and talons, she bitch-slapped those ravens without harming the eggs, awe inspiring! When she "shook it off" and then left the nest, I had a feeling she was going to have a bit of an aerial chat with a few ravens. I wouldn't want to be the one on the other end of that encounter!
Wow these ravens have been really intense this year, they must be very hungry. Well done Momma Jackie and Dad Shadow.
6 ravens 🤦🏻♀️ Qué protectores ♥️🦅🥚🥚🦅♥️
WOW ive been finding myself wanting to make POPCORN and hot cocoa so I can sit down and watch the ongoing DRAMA that goes on in the Life of a Family of EAGLES . No closed captions or language needed I could watch the dialogue all day lone This is INCREDIBLE to have a front row seat into their DAILY LIFE .. We are able to do so many things with technology and THIS ..?? Wow .. and i knew crows could be jerks and just WOW to all of it .
This was “ AMAZING “! Incredibly smart bald eagles!! THEY RULE!! 😁👏👏👏👍
You don't mess with Jackie, Jackie don't play!!
I was so nervous until shadow appeared
Stink'in Ravens 😠
Yes, I pictured myself swinging a baseball bat at the Ravens and knocking them out for good.
Do not morally judge wild animals. They live on the edge between life and death every day and do whatever it takes to survive. Do you say, "Stinking eagles," when one of them kills and brings a duck to the nest? That duck had a mate and a nest with eggs too.
@@PossumLover1111 Get help
@@istvanfoy-roberts868 No, I happen to think Bald Eagles are superior to all other birds; they can eat whatever they want.
Wow you’re right that was intense. I didn’t think I was ever coming back. I hope mom can come down now.
Poor Jackie having to fight off the ravens while still protecting the eggs in the nest! So glad Shadow arrived to help fight them off!
"Daddy they tried to get us, but I fought them off" Don't worry mama, I'll tear their feathers off.
What a beee-yooo-tee-ful mama!!! So dedicated!!!
WOW! Another nail biter! I almost jumped thru my computer screen! Those pesky ravens! Ugh! But I love how Jackie knew what they were up to and didn’t leave her eggs! Then Shadow comes in to save the day! Such a devoted dad and partner. Him coming close to her near the end as to say, “I’ve got you babe” was priceless. I just love them!
I got caught up by that wonderful smile of yours...?
@@peterrobbery Thanks!
Wow shadow is such a good nurturing father.! So awesome to see this!
The dad is so gentle when he takes over nest duties.
Our world would be so much better if humans would just leave well enough alone- Mother Nature does a great job she knows what needs done.
I love corvids but we need every eagle that can be hatched.
Oh my gosh those ravens are going to be fierce this year
