    @socalfun64 Hoopoes bring food to the oldest chicks first. They managed to bring as many as 260 insects per day so they are good providers. Everything depends on the weather. If it rains, it is harder to get food. Both Hoopoe parents have been doing their best to feed their chicks. There are 4 strong and healthy chicks ready to fledge now (on 15th June).

    Mom seems inexperienced at getting the food in the chicks mouth. The dad on the other hand seems to have no issues with getting the chicks to take the food

    @shannonspage9360 Dad had problems at the beginning and thus had to wait for Mom to return to pass the food to her, so that she could feed the chicks. Later on, it all depended on the size of the 'snack'. If the 'snack' was too large for small beaks it was difficult for both parents to fit it into the small beaks. At this moment (15th June), chicks are about to fledge and there are no problems with feeding them. Thanks a lot for your great comment! 😍😍

    It looks like she is only interested in feeding the large chicks and not the small ones that hatched later. Do they only feed whole items and don't break it into pieces to feed more chicks instead of just gorging one? This also appears to be her first brood.

    Gosh! That's a tough one to guess... probably late autumn/early winter will give us more of a clue! Had things gone otherwise, this would be the waning of the nesting season, and eagles bring nesting material to the end. Is the alternative nest a bonding exercise? Only time will tell :) Thanks for showing other wildlife too!

    @RebeccaProbst-lw9bx This is their way of bonding. It is called a protonest and they were building it in the past too. They use it to strengthen their ties. It happens that eagles build new nests and move there but according to experts, it won't happen here. They are most likely to stick to their main nest for the next breeding season.

    Jackie and Shadow have been using that dead tree to pretend to build nests as a method of bonding for years now. Yes Eagles do move nests sometimes but it is pretty unlikely that they would actually choose a tree like that. I get it though. When I started watching 5 years ago I was a little concerned too. Then I started hanging out and reading the FOBBV live cam chat and they educated me on soooo many eagle things, including this. Also, Jackie has been working on building out the back porch of the nest for years now. That's why the large awkward Lumber Jackie stick disappears at the bottom of the cam out of view. They both look seriously invested in the regular nest to me.

    This is a big plus. I feel SOMETHING is wrong in that nest itself. No reason they should keep having failed hatches. They are too good as parents. I am happy their instinct is telling them to go for a new home. I pray for them daily to be the parents they are destined to be. Many happy hatches, a beautiful new home, and good luck to two of the very best of the species.

    The cold weather is killing them. I don't think being in the new tree that is even more exposed to the snow and rain is not gonna help. The eggs have to be kept at 105 degrees at all times while incubating and there's no way that happened when it was 20 degrees and Jackie had 2 inches of snow covering her on multiple occasions. There's also a nest on Catalina island, only 100 miles from Big Bear, that had all the eggs hatch. They're at sea level and the weather is mild, while Jackie and Shadow are high up in the mountains in what is essentially a skiing town.
