🦅I think there were more than 3 hours of open airtime for our eggs today - The weather was nice and that may have played a part. One observer stated the ravens were seen closer than usual to the nest. Bright sun, but possible dark days for Jackie and Shadow.

I enjoy watching and making these videos. I am lonely. Feedback is something I crave, and with my ADHD I will never know if others crave it as much as I do, or if it's just another part of the fabulous merry-go-round in my brain. In order to get feedback, people have to see the videos. In order for people to see the videos, YouTube or google or something has to match them with people who want to see this type of video. Playing on words is how the algorithms seem to work. If you're not interested in these types of videos, then something in your algorithm is jacked up if you're here because of it. Please don't pick on the words I choose when naming videos - if they all were simply "Eagles Today" - everyone would get bored, and I would remain completely alone in my little eagle watching world. Merry

📌 It is unlikely that the eggs will hatch at this point. We have no way of knowing why. It could be environmental, such as temperatures, humidity percentages, oxygen levels at high altitude, etc. It could be biological with something just being off at the time the eggs were created. It is very unlikely that either Jackie or Shadow are infertile since they have already had 2 sets of chicks together - in 2019 and 2022.

📌 A replacement (second) clutch may be common if the first one was lost very early on (within 1-2 weeks) and uncommon otherwise. It is unlikely there will be another clutch this season. Jackie is still incubating the current clutch.

Big Bear Lake is ~7 miles long, ~1/2 mile wide, and sits at 6750 ft. ASL. The lake forms thin layers of ice, but never freezes completely, making it a favorite for wintering eagles & many birds. The lake is stocked a couple of times a year.
