Holy smokes! #JackieAndShadow’s #eaglets
Have gotten so big!!!Also a very valuable lesson in “never stand behind an eaglet.”

#JackieAndShadow are doing a wonderful job of caring for their remaining 2 #eaglets.

Great look at #JackieAndShadow’s 3 #eaglets.
They so resemble funny little muppets / miniature Ostriches with Slinky toy necks.
Adorable.
Also, every time Shadow does a feeding, “Papa can you hear me?” from Yentl plays in my head.

#Eaglet 3 has arrived! Again it was overnight, so night vision cam made it difficult to see. Here is a glimpse of the newly hatched chick + an early morning feeding.

It is Friday, after another geopolitical week of #fear, #turmoil & #chaos driven by #Trump’s #RevengePolitics. As such, I may be guilty of endeavoring to cleanse both my heart/mind/timeline.
And because I am not involved in any primary beauty, here is another #JackieAndShadow video.
[Last year at this time I posted hourly #BabySquirrel (click) updates. Thankfully–for them–none have need rescuing yet]

This is some impressive #coparenting. Jackie takes off & ~15 seconds later Shadow arrives. Nice.

Time for another #JackieAndShadow & #Eaglets #TLcleanse
Here is Shadow doing a great job getting both chicks fed. You can also see the 3rd eaglet making progress on the pip in its shell 💕🦅
You can hear Jackie return at the end with a fresh coot. -
Both Momma & Papa pitching in, though I’m not entirely sure Shadow is “helping” per se. 🤣🥶

Yeesh, & you thought your kids were messy eaters.

The third egg has pipped!!!!
In the video you can see the unhatched eaglet moving around through the pip!

Still snowing in #BigBearValley, CA.
Here’s #Shadow checking in on the eaglets in the nest’s snow bowl.
He even treats them (& us) to a few silly snorts.

Cold & snowing tonight & tomorrow in #BigBearValley, CA. #JackieAndShadow will need to keeps those babies warm & tucked in.

These two are a crack up. Here they are grabbing each other’s beaks. They’re so absorbed in each other it took a while before they realized Jackie was trying to feed them.

I love #Shadow, but he’s just not as good at the whole feeding thing as #Jackie.
Video: Eaglets, with wide open beaks, are ready for a feeding. Shadow, belatedly realizes it, but the chicks have tired themselves out, so when he tries to give them some bits of fish, they’ve exhausted themselves. - I do think one of the eaglets got a little nibblet.

Feeding!
Jackie just succeeded in feeding some fish to one of the new chicks. The whole time I was rooting for the other chick to get some nibbles.

Here’s a much better look at the #eaglets. One is already innately opening its little beak for a feeding, #Shadow didn’t have anything, but stroked the little one with his beak.

Chick1 hatched 3/3 23:26! Chick2 hatched 3/4 4:29!
It was on the night vision cam, so pretty difficult to see, but yay!!!
Shadow is on watch now, & he’s keeping them nice & warm tucked beneath him, but here’s a little look at the #eaglets. Shadow sweetly tucks the remaining unhatched egg between the 2 before settling back down.

Here’s a good long look at the #eaglets peeking & chirping through the pips in the shells. I’m a little worried about the third egg, but it’s possible it will hatch later. Jackie laid each egg singly & 3 days apart from each other. So it could be the last egg laid.

I love how Shadow prattles away to the #eaglets as he rolls the eggs under himself to take his shift while Jackie eats.

Jackie just took a break to eat the fish Shadow had brought her & we got a glimpse of 2 little faces & beaks & one even gave out a little cry! So cool. Jackie just finished eating & successfully ousted Shadow.
Apologizies for the orientation switch — I quickly switch back to landscape just in time to see baby chirp.

Big Bear bald eagles, Jackie and Shadow, are on pip watch this weekend!
Three in the nest are at 35 days and there's been relatively good weather... how many chicks will emerge???
