Big Bear Eagles

The following OUTLOOK is based on typical Eagle egg time to hatch of 35 days ... the "common" range is considered 34 to 40 

OUTLOOK as of March 4th

Breakfast is served.
Both parents, Jackie and Shadow, are at the nest.
46F current temperature in Big Bear Valley, CA
Day #6 for the first egg and
Day #3 for the second egg.
Online speculation: A 3rd egg may be coming.


UPDATE: March 1  10AM PST
This is day #5 for the first egg and
day #2 for the second.
I am encouraged to see the Eagles staying
on the eggs without, so far, taking long breaks away.
Looks like another nice day in Big Bear Valley.

I believe this is Jackie ... the mother bird.
Her partner is Shadow.
