Overview

• Jackie, a bald eagle in Big Bear, California, laid her first egg of the season on January 25, 2024, captured on a live camera feed.
• Jackie's partner, Shadow, was seen on camera shortly after the egg was laid, appearing somewhat bewildered.
• Last year, Jackie and Shadow's eggs did not hatch, the reasons for which remain unclear.
• Jackie and Shadow have a following of thousands of viewers who watch their nesting activities on a live feed provided by the nonprofit group Friends of Big Bear Valley.
• There is speculation that Jackie might lay a second egg in the coming days, as eagles typically lay two to three eggs in a clutch.
