BIG BEAR, Calif. (KESQ) – Jackie the bald eagle has laid another egg up at the Big Bear nest on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Jackie laid her fist egg of a second clutch shortly after 2:30 p.m., according to the Friends of Big Bear Valley, a nonprofit that operates the nest camera.<\/p>\n
The nonprofit later added that<\/a> Jackie generally lays two to three eggs per clutch, and they have been laid three days apart. If she is going to lay a second egg, they will start watching for signs on Friday.<\/p>\n The latest update provides new hope that we may see eaglets this year.<\/p>\n Jackie had laid two other eggs earlier this year, but last month, the eggs were abandoned and ultimately eaten by ravens<\/a>.<\/p>\n “It is with great sadness to report that both of Jackie & Shadow\u2019s eggs were breached by ravens earlier today,” reads a FOBBV post. “Just before noon, Shadow left the nest, Jackie did not come in, and Shadow did not return for a few hours. We will never know why, but we are sure they had their reasons as they have been incubating the eggs faithfully.”<\/p>\n You can watch the livestream of the nest, courtesy of the Friends of Big Bear Valley, below:<\/p>\n BE PART OF THE CONVERSATION<\/p>\n News Channel 3 is committed to providing a forum for civil and constructive conversation.<\/p>\n Please keep your comments respectful and relevant.
