1-11-2023 We Have An Egg!
Ойын-сауық
Jackie laid her first egg of this season at 15:58 this afternoon!
After sitting in the nest bowl for about 15 minutes this afternoon, Jackie stood up and started puffing her feathers out - the obvious sign that she was going into labor. She had apparently been feeling it coming on--this was her 12th visit to the nest today! After 2 days of huge storms, she seemed to be getting everything back in order. Each time she visited, she rearranged a couple sticks, sometimes brought a stick or fluff with her (4 sticks and 1 bunch of fluff), sometimes laid down in the nest bowl for a short time…and then it all happened. Making her usual tea kettle whistles as she pushed the egg out, she was in labor for about 6 minutes. And then there was a beautiful egg! She rolled it a couple times before sitting, but she sat down only 6 or 7 minutes after laying it. In past years, she usually stood for a much longer time before tucking in on the egg.
Shadow was around the area. He visited the nest with Jackie for a while this morning, helping rearrange sticks to make everything just right. He was on one of their favorite nearby perches during the egg-laying. From what he’s done in the past, he seems to know to stay close but not too close during this process.
Now, Jackie is on the nest for the night. Occasionally standing to roll the egg and reposition herself. At 18:09, little Fiona discovered that the airbnb is no longer vacant. She popped up on the edge of the nest and discovered the BIG bird at home. Fiona quickly skidaddled before Jackie had time to turn around and see her. But Jackie sensed something was there and sat up, on alert.
Jackie is now in full mama mode, caring for and protecting her new egg.

Congratulations, our fine feathery flying friends! Yea to Jackie and Shadow! You did it! FOBBV, thank you for sharing the birth of the next generation! Blessings!
3:50 is when she starts. Very soft but you'll hear it more after. Never thought she made that noise when she's laying her egg. Thanks again from FOBBV CAM to give us a lesson from these awesome birds of prey.
I love our little tea pot momma💜💜💜
I became addicted about a week after Spirit hatched. Thanks to all the mods and everyone involved in making this happen. Now when I look out my front window and see the mountains I always think about J and S and family being up there.

I was So worried I wouldn't be able to hear her Whistle because mic is So loud with whatever those Horrid sounds are!! So dug out old tea pot and had it set to go off at the Precise Moment! Didnt need it!😂 but now I have my tea pot, which was buried in garage!😁
🎉🎉Congratulations Jackie and Shadow and FOBBV 🎉🎉
Sweet Jackie, you did such a good job. ❤ Such a blessing to behold. Congratulations S & J!
I so love Sandy's stories, they are the best. Welcome Egg #1 season 2023 ♥
Congratulations Jackie and Shadow! Blessings to egg # 1 and this sweet eagle family. 💕🥚🦅🦅💕
Shadow is in the "basement apt." celebrating with Fast Freddie. Fiona has set up a buffet of Truffles, a variety of fish, and coot!😋🦅🐿🐿
This is when you truly see the instinctual devotion of these animals. Shadow will be constantly bringing back food to Jackie as she sits on that egg through all kinds of predation threats and wet/cold/ windy weather.
Omg. This is so exciting and what a wonderful occurrence to witness. So sweet 🥹❤️☺️
Congratulations Jackie and shadow
Yay Jackie and Shadow!

So excited to see this again. I’m so happy for them.
Congrats Jackie and Shadow. Well done ❤
If I counted my days right, this little one should be joining us on Valentine's Day! I just hope that there won't be any bad storms in the forecast around the hatch date. Is it common for them to lay and hatch this early in the season?

Based on Jackie's past experiences, she is very likely to lay a second egg around the afternoon of Sat. 1/14 or later. Talons crossed that she does this again this time.
So exciting!
