One of the eggs laid by Big Bear bald eagle pair Jackie and Shadow is starting to hatch, offering a potential new eaglet for the wildlife-viewing nest. The nonprofit Friends of Big Bear Valley, which runs the cameras, reported faint chirps from the chick on Thursday as it breached the egg’s internal membrane and took its first breath. On Friday, observers could see a thin crack in the eggshell, signaling progress toward emergence. Hatchings typically take 24 to 48 hours after the initial membrane rupture, and luck may determine how quickly this eaglet makes its way into the world. The couple also laid a second egg in February, and biologists and viewers alike will be watching to see how both eggs fare. The Big Bear nest is a favorite among fans of PETS and ANIMALS, nature and wild birds, with live broadcasts monitored by the Friends of Big Bear Valley. Like 👍 Subscribe 🔔 and stay informed.
