FOBBV🦅A Day In The Life Of Jackie & Shadow❤️️Major Renovations, Stickfest & Mating!🌲2024-04-25

The opinions presented do not necessarily reflect the opinions of FOBBV.
Apparently spring cleaning is in order today! Jackie and Shadow deliver 13 sticks/fluff with their usual antics.
🥚Jackie and Shadow have withdrawn from their unhatched eggs. On 4/11, one egg was broken and disappeared in the bowl. It is unclear if there was any development inside. On 4/13, Jackie consumed at least one remaining egg (no signs of development). The last (third) egg still remains in the nest (hidden in fluff).
We have no way of knowing why the egg did not hatch. 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.
ℹResident Bald Eagle male: Shadow (unbanded) since May 2018. Estimated hatch year: 2014
ℹResident Bald Eagle female: Jackie (unbanded) since September 2016. Estimated hatch year: 2012

Shadow seems very determined to trim off some of the smaller twigs off of the larger branches so he can weave them into the nest. I wish I could hand him a pair of heavy duty garden shears for the job! 😄
It's so interesting and entertaining to watch Jackie and Shadow work with the sticks. ❤

Too funny watching them go back and forth with the stick placement. Finally Shadow concedes, and probably thinks, OK, I'll move it later when she isn't here. 😅 They're quite the pair, and love is in the air.❤🦅🦅❤
Shadow and Jackie visit their nest, Thanks Cali Condor
That's some fancy eagle-neering going on there! 😍
Pro nest builders, ❤ their fly ins to the nest , ❤S&J, these videos are great, ty so much.
Dear Jackie 🦅 and Shadow ❣pulling and lifting the same stick 🤣 and disagreeing where to put it 😘 I'm so happy to see this beautiful couple in their nest 🏡 and I will be so sad if they stop coming by ☹ Their enduring love ❤🔥 through so many challenges this year is wonderful!
I'm happy that Jackie and Shadow are still keeping the nest filled with sticks. They're a very loving couple ❤! FOBBV, how late have eggs been laid by Jackie? I love the darling Eagles ❤️❤️!!

I love watching Shadow and Jackie rearranging the nest with their different shaped sticks! ❤❤
Seems they've created a new reality show called, "Stick Wars!" I laughed at them several times. They bring me such joy. 🤗 I have a question...is this usual for them to tend the nest so feverishly at this time? I know that I deep down am hoping they know something we don't and are prepping?? ❤️ 🦅❤️🦅 🥚🥚🤞
Doing some home decorating and rearranging of the furniture….i mean sticks. 💋
It looks like they're having fun and love, too.
They are getting the oddest branches. But, it's good to see them. It makes my heart happy that they are at the nest. Reinforcing, redecorating, rearranging, so much fun doing things together.~ That plane seemed to be a little to low. Don't you think? Or is it just me? ~ Cali, thanks so much for showing the highlights of the day. I ran errands today, so I missed all of the excitement. You are the BEST!!!
Jackie never comes into the nest gracefully! I noticed that Shadow sometimes ducks to keep his head down! 😂

Such an AMAZING duo!! 💗🥰🦅🪻
I wonder if there will ever be enough sticks
Sooo funny how they work together 😅😅
It seems that every season the sticks get more wonky.
Was delighted to watch this yesterday. Looked like Jackie was digging into the fluff; trying to bury the 3rd egg even deeper? Playing tug-o-war with that wonky stick! They were both intent on housekeeping, but Shadow is the most dedicated -as usual.
I love seeing them❣️❤❤❤❤
I wonder if they get the feeling someone is watching them?

Thank you so much for this! I enjoyed watching this video immensely! Absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Jackie and Shadow! Wondering if it's natural for them to be doing this much work on the nest at this time? I kind of expected them to be back at the nest very little until next winter.
I'm so happy to watch these majestic eagles through the miracle of technology thanks to the miracle of God's creation! It's a privilege to see them arrange the sticks and they make me laugh, and I just love them!!
I hope they keep this nest for next time,it kept very sturdy and did very well during those harsh snow storms

They’ve had it for years, see no reason for change
Some wonky sticks just don't want to fit in the nest but it is fun to watch the wrangling to try to make them fit. I think Jackie is the best wonky stick wrangler around; even Stickman can't beat her. I can't help but wonder about the reason for these major renovations but time will tell. In the meantime, it is delightful to watch them. That was some plane that flew over them, so loud! Thanks for a great video, Cali, it was wonderful. 😊
They were disagreeing on the nest arrangements!😂
Is it an egg still there? Thank you, Cali, for this upload. I missed watching them today and it’s great to catch up with latest developments here.

Cali, I have a question: You said Jackie won't lay more eggs because her fertile season is Jan through March. I read the female bald eagle can become fertile again within the same breeding season if her eggs fail to hatch. They are mating and acting like they're preparing the nest. What do you think?
Way, way, way, to much furniture in that house! It's over load crowded with sticks and branches! The nesting fluff has disappeared!
I think they may lay another says there?
Will they try again this spring?

Никто не вылупился. Одно яйцо разбилось, после чего Джеки закопала оставшиеся, чтобы Шэдоу не видел их (он не мог оставить гнездо, пока там были яйца) и не достались воронам. Позже Джеки решила ситуацию кардинально - вернулась и съела яйца. Теперь наши любимые орланы свободны, но всё ещё хотят малышей😢

Eagles bond over sticks and working in the nest together. Eagles are also compulsive nest builders and the nest is always a work in progress. Jackie is fertile January-March and it's likely too late for a 2nd clutch.
@AnderMc60
Ай бұрын
OK, I don't know about Eagles, but why is Jackie only fertile early in the year?
@AngelaS22
Ай бұрын
@@AnderMc60 eagles nesting seasons vary due to photoperiodism, which means the amount of available sunlight that will trigger hormones. The most southern eagles lay their eggs first whereas the most northern eagles lay eggs last. Jackie lays eggs January thru March based on her zone as well as her history of egg laying. Also, eagles basically can be fertile 3 months of the year, approximately 1 month apart. If they lay eggs that first cycle and then incubate for 35 days, you would now be in that 2nd cycle, but because she is incubating the hormones are shifted to incubation she won't lay any more eggs while incubating. If those eggs are gone/broken/buried in the nest soon after laying, she may be able to lay a 2nd clutch, but those eggs must be gone early after laying so the hormones can shift from brooding back to laying eggs during that next window of fertility. It is a timing issue. Since she incubated 70+days, the hormones shifted out of brooding too late to catch her 3rd month to lay eggs again since we are now at the end of April.
