The Big Bear eagle nest was quiet for only a short time, but what happened during that absence left viewers shaken. On the afternoon of January 30, 2026, around 15:26, a raven entered the Big Bear eagle nest while Jackie and Shadow were both away. Live footage clearly shows the raven consuming one of the eagle eggs and then turning its attention to the second. While the raven appeared to peck at or attempt to access the remaining egg, it is not definitively known whether the second egg was fully punctured or consumed.
The Big Bear eagle nest greeted the morning quietly, wrapped in pale light and mountain stillness. Jackie was already settled…
Just after sunrise on June 27, 2026, the forest around the nest was still wrapped in early-morning quiet when Shadow returned to the nest tree shortly after 6 a.m. Moments later, Shadow discovered the second egg following a soft but purposeful exchange with Jackie, their calls echoing through the branches. The quiet coordination between them signaled an important shift in the morning at the nest.
Late on January 26, 2026, the Big Bear eagle nest reached an exciting milestone when Jackie laid her second egg. For viewers watching live, the moment felt close long before it happened. Jackie shifted often, adjusted her position, and made familiar, soft sounds that signaled something important was underway.
For a short moment, the Big Bear eagle nest was quiet as Jackie and Shadow’s egg sat alone in the bowl. Shadow had stepped away, and the single egg rested unguarded. It seemed the eagles weren’t around to protect their egg. To viewers watching live, the stillness felt heavy.
