On the night of March 15, 2026, Fiona’s visit to the Big Bear eagle nest turned an otherwise peaceful scene into an evening surprise. Jackie had been sleeping over her eggs when faint movement in the nest tree caught her attention. Within seconds, she woke to find Fiona, the resident flying squirrel, suddenly right in front of her in the dark.
On March 14, 2026, Shadow flew toward the Big Bear eagle nest carrying a fish for Jackie, but he was not alone. A young eagle chased him to the Big Bear nest in a tense moment captured here, turning what should have been a simple food delivery into another noisy standoff above the nest. For a moment, the scene shifted from routine care to active defense as Jackie and Shadow reacted instantly to the bird on his tail.
Shadow’s stick trick got Jackie off the eggs, but the mood at the Big Bear nest changed fast. Ravens returned, tension built in the nest tree, and Jackie and Shadow snapped back into defense mode.
Morning light filled Big Bear Valley as Jackie returned to the nest with fresh grass and greeted Shadow with a tender beaky kiss. The quiet exchange set the tone for a special day at the Big Bear eagle nest—but before evening arrived, Shadow had one more heartwarming surprise waiting.
On March 9, 2026, as evening settled over Big Bear Lake, a quiet and tender moment unfolded high in the towering pines.

The reunion was gentle but unmistakable.
On March 7, 2026, A powerful windstorm brought a tense moment to the Big Bear bald eagle nest, where Jackie and Shadow are currently incubating their eggs. The gusts were so strong that both eagles were blown off the eggs three different times while trying to protect and incubate them. Even as the tall pine tree swayed back and forth, Jackie and Shadow kept returning to the center of the nest bowl, doing everything they could to keep the eggs warm and safe. It was a moment that was both frightening and inspiring.
