FOBBV Eagles 🦅 Jackie quickly ejects ⏏️ intruder who dares land in nest tree 😲 2024 Feb 15

- After a typical evening nest exchange, a sub-adult bald eagle followed Jackie to the basement of the nest tree. She had to eject it twice before it got the message.
Correction: we referred to the intruder as a “juvenile” in the video. The proper identification for the visitor is “sub-adult”. There is an excellent explanation of the differences between juvenile and sub-adult bald eagles here: avianreport.com/age-and-ident.... Basically, a juvenile is in its first plumage, which replaces the coat of down while the eaglet is still in the nest. A sub-adult (sometimes referred to as immature) is older than one year and has replaced the juvenile plumage for what is called an immature plumage.

She leaves last minute instructions before departing 😂❤

How magnificent the Bald Eagles are, so glad they are our national symbol and are protected. Just truly amazing.
Yes
I feel sorry for the juvie. Not an easy stage in a young eagle's life, and the juvie was perhaps happy just to be around other eagles and as @kitkat5765 suggested, maybe get a meal. J&S, however, did not share my human feelings about the wandering juvie. Shadow protected the eggies, and Jackie finally had to resort to some firm lessons to the juvie not to stay in her and Shadow's territory. Thanks for showing us that all's well that ends well, SKH.
Poor shadow looked stressed sitting in the nest hearing the kerfuffle but not seeing it
Really well done. The captions are readable but not distracting. The editing is beautifully done and reeks of your love for these eagles. You showed me a story with drama, heroism, love and I'm so glad I got to see it. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Well said and I agree 100%. Thank you for this rare privilege.👏💐💕
Fyi, "reeks" indicates a terrible smell, not a good smell.
It seemed like the juvie wanted to be welcomed in, like I'm home!
When Juv Eagles fly to a Nest tree with eggs or hatches--they do it for 2 reasons. 1) they follow an adult back to the nest that is carrying a fish of some type of food.(2) It's a previous occupant of this nest as a fledged Eaglet. Because this one did not exhibit the normal expected reaction(of a former nest tenant),rather moved around the basement branches trying to get a 'Recognition' from J & S--it finally understood it wasn't welcome when J became more aggressive and S chimed in to voice his displeasure. It's clear that this Young Eaglet understood it's time here has come and gone, understanding J& S are Current nest yr parents only. Funny thing. As a person, i completely take the former Eaglets belief that it's parents(that nurtured it and gave it life)no longer wanted to visit and find time to spend with it.
Nature makes the rules for Parents and instills that message over many generations of Parent Eagles and Awkwardly in fledged Eaglets trying to reconnect with a past life.. Thanks for posting--good Cam footage on what went on under the nest(and above , in the nest).
Could it be ? Spirit ?
As soon as Jackie returned and eggs were covered, shadow went out for a couple beers. That was stressful. 🥚🦅😬. 🍿🍻
I've been watching them for a few weeks now. They they are absolutely beautiful ... I'm a nature fan, and I love watching God's beautiful creation... and this one, I get to watch live. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you for this wonderful video. ❤❤❤
How much longer till the babies arrive ? You said you had been watching for weeks
@@connietorres1758 I know I'm thinking the same thing... with all the rain and snow...its amazing how they are devoted to the warmth and protection of them... I'm thinking early spring it's not far off... I can't wait to see them hatch
Pip watch (when the chick first pokes through the shell) starts February 29th.
Agree with you @donaldperea beautiful ✝️
It’s an age-old story. Spirit returns home to mum and dad’s. No job, no prospects, doesn’t want to pay rent. Jackie gave him his marching orders. 😂
Yep, and that's what human parents should do as well!
Your dialogue on the videos is hilarious!
I’m so attached to these two already, I can only imagine how attached you are.
Ever vigilant and watchful. Shadow shows us what "keep your head on a swivel" means. He's lying down in the nest facing 12 o'clock and can turn his little head effortlessly to face 6 o'clock. Jackie and Shadow are amazing!
They have such patience with the young ones! They aren't a threat, but need a good 'lecture'. "Yeah, if that was my eaglet, I'd want them to be gently chased out, and learn something from it." J&S probably aren't thinking that, but the sentiment is there, whether instinct or parental understanding. ❤️🦅🦅🥚🥚🥚
Shadow showed great restraint during the exchanges. I’m sure he wanted to go help but followed his duty to guard the eggs. This juvie has hung around too long…maybe Jackie got the point across tonight. Hit the road, Jack.
The outside male is hopeful that he has a chance, there may be few mature females, and Jackie is an excellent, mature female. The competitive males won't give up easily on trying to steal her, but her leaving her young is not going to happen. She is vigilant because she knows that if they have a chance, the other males will kill her young. She may have already experienced this, Shadow is learning and seems to be more protective since the hatching.
Yes I was thinking the same! That Shadow really wanted to help!
oh yes i finally see her curl her claws so they dont hurt the eggs. i love this cam
That juvie was so comfortable that it may have been Spirit coming to say hi and be fed. However, Jackie can have none of it!
Who is spirit?
@@songsthatarecatchytheir baby from 2022.
@@michellebrewer6297 oh okay. I only started watching last year. Lol thanks
I wondered if maybe it was a "child" from another year. I'm glad I can go home and visit my parents! 😊
@@theGEnericE My Mom was just like Jackie when I went back....lol
I love this time of year. I leave this on the living room TV all day so the kids & I can check-in. 🥰🦅
every time I see videos of these two I’m amazed at how tall their tree is
Thanks for sharing this, I never saw this live. Love their Raptor communications, such a vocabulary.
Jackie & Shadow have the best Eagle real estate & view imo. Surely this year, they will have young, prayers.🙏🏻🙂🏴
Great camera work!!! We thank you for sharing this amazing wildlife adventure here in our backyard (Cali) millions are watching from around the world this is very exciting!!! 👏⚔️🇺🇸⚔️❤️🦅🦅
Thanks to FOBBV
Parecía Spirit ❤❤
Thank you for creating this series and for your very enjoyable commentary. It’s a gift to be able to watch this.
I was watching live for this! Quite the excitement, and an impressively bold youngster (though perhaps either desperate for food scraps or just plain stupid to keep trying like that with a pair on eggs, smh). I wish the youth well....once they're further away from the nest 😅 A speedy vid, thanks SKH!
Intruder Juvie to Jackie: "But Mom -- don't you remember me??" (Just another day day in the nest tree - enfluffle, kerfuffle, enfluffle, kerfuffle .. . . . )
Could be Spirit -- I've seen eagles get more excited about such a bold intruder, landing just below the nest and right next to Jackie
Even so. Spirit should know better! Maybe come back summertime or when the eggs hatch@@eah8101
Exactly!!
Maybe one of their chicks?
Poor baby. He was lonely and within a gnat’s ass of getting a whoopin’.
Awww poor lil fella. He must be hungry too much snow this year. 😢
I loved the last minute instruction to Shadow on the eggs. Jackie is a great mom. The juvenile needed to know that he/she was not welcomed at all. FOBBV has the best angles with the cam.
Shadow isn’t ready to go, but we know who’s in charge 😂. I love them both so much. Thank you for sharing all these wonderful videos.
I remember watching them when the eggs didn't hatch!!
Now this is great !! Now they'll take care of 3 baby eagles❤😮
Thank you so much for this video..Jackie and Shadow are such a dynamic duo❤🦅🦅❤
Is that you my beautiful spirit!! ❤ If so you sure are a beauty just like your mom🥰💕🪹🌳
Spirit 🤍😊❤❤They always seem to treat her.different when I see her just seems the connection is still there.... there was alot with ( little egg) 4 of them..Imagin the three little ones like spirit lol 😁miss her thank you for sharing
@@MyMountainSpirit 😅 that would be something wouldn't it!! I miss her too!! She was a little firecracker!!😂 Praying for the best with the triplets 🙏🥚🥚🥚😇
Me to..I said to my friend.Imagin 3 spirits or those are sister and brother Comes down to it they most amazing parent.should be fun lol🤍😁🤍@@deannacoleman913
Funny how a few minutes later Jackie looks so calm- Heart rate is probably normal- not a care in the world
What beautiful and remarkable birds. A lesson in dedication, companionship, and feathered love.
It's incredible seeing such predators be so gentle and caring to a few eggs. If only humans could learn something from them.
Your typical human is incredibly soft and caring with babies. These comments that compare animals favorably to humans are so childish.
@carsondenny1986 I couldn't agree with you more. The triteness overload becomes tiresome.
They’re a great team. ❤❤❤ I love them! Thanks for this great video ❤️❤️❤️
A great clip, I've only just discovered the channel, I've duly subscribed. I'm looking forward to what the future brings.
Great job with the cams, all the best from Portsmouth, UK
Eagles are awesome. Really good parents. Humans should take note.
NATURE IS SOOOO PERFECT & BEAUTIFUL.....WHEN HUMANS STAY AWAY FROM IT!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for this video! I love your captions… they always make me chuckle 🤭… 🦅🦅🥚🥚🥚💞💞💞🥰🥰🥰💗💗💗🙏🙏🙏
Really enjoyed this video of Jackie and Shadow ❤❤. APPRECIATE the comments posted during this post...fantastic!!!🥰💞💖
Nobody wants to mess with broody eagles! Maybe the juvie was one of theirs? Swinging by the ole homestead. 😁 I wish them the best with their trips this year! ❤️ Great captures! Thank you!
The commentary is precious 👍 😊
Jackie stay safe ❤❤❤❤❤
Scared the bejesus cracked me up, but Shadow definitely was taken aback...Jackie might have given him one of her sweet little sounds on the way up/in... New here, just a few days, can't stop watching, and when I do, can't wait to get back!!! Thank you!!!!
I wonder if it was Spirit!! I am glad Jackie was not too harsh.
" Don't sneak up on me like that!"😅
Keep your head on a swivel, shadow❤
Cute mama 😊❤❤❤❤
Thank you for the great video and the comments! 🦅🦅
Shadow, our compulsive stick arranger😊
Love how they protect each other and their eggs❤
This has been so wonderful to follow this feathered family!
Shadow was clearly very worried about Jackie!!!! She’s a tough cookie.
Amazing. Thank you.
Brilliant composition. Thank you.
You took the words right out of my mouth!!😂😂 "Move that stick! Thank you!"
So protective ❤I love it
I think this is my all time favorite, great camera work ya'll.
YES! I agree! 🤩
Great recap! Tysm for the update ❤
Jackie and Shadow portray real love and affection.
Beautiful!
This is such a joy to experience. Thank you so much!
Amazing footage guys! 💖
Thank you for post
The captions help. Thank you !
Great narration LOL what a sight it was in the moment!!! Thanks
I just found your amazing channel. Thank you for sharing these precious videos!
Thanks for the video.
Great video...thanks for sharing
Amazing footage. Love the play-by-play narration. Job well done. Thanks much! 💜
This was great filming and captions. I really enjoyed it!!
My thought exactly! @ 1:47 Love seeing those THREE beautiful, precious eggs.🥰 Don’t want any to break. Great job as always Mom. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely Amazing
get'em jackie 💪🏻... way to protect the abode...( just hope it wasn't Spirit)...🦅... Good job Shadow guarding them babies 😁
I think it was Spirt, which is why Shadow even allowed him to land in the same tree at all. All birds react this way though when babies have grown and been away from the nest. It's totally acceptable.
It may well have been Spirit, but still not welcome here. They have a new family to protect now. Their job with Spirit is over❤
Spot on editing! Great compilation and storytelling.
Great editing…. Thank you for sharing.
Superman and Wonder Woman indeed!! 💚
@SK_H "task at talon" 😂 Thanks for your humor with all your videos!
If that’s Spirit she must be going through hard times to be returning so often now. Jackie showed her the back door out!
Poor kid 🦅
So lovely, to watch!! TY!! and Bravo 😍 Jackie & Shadow, a shining example of BE teamwork ✨✨
They just beautiful.❤🦅❤🦅
That's Spirt, if it wasn't, Shadow wouldn't have even allowed it to last in that same tree at all. And they sat together quite awhile before Shadow sent it away.
Jackie was the one that wing slapped it(juvie eagle) away on the lower part of the tree..lol Shadow was up top not leaving his duty while laying on the eggs knowing Jackie could handle it. She and shadow do a good job about guarding and protecting and fighting(wing slapping) when needed.. Love these two birds..
Awww, they look like they’re wearing pants 👖So adorable ❤
Excellent composition/editing of footage. Hat's off!
Truly amazing to witness
Great video footage!!!! 👍
Jackie is a fk around and find out kinda Mama.. I love her !
I miss living in Big Bear! Hoping Jackie and Shadow have three lovely, healthy chicks!
These are wonderful to watch. Thank you to everyone at Big Bear for making this possible
Well, the eggs were kept warm...thats a great babysitter. Beautiful birds.
They are such an amazing pair!
My best guess that is Spirit, just wanting some mommy and daddy time!!! I love watching these two tag team. Go Jackie and Shadow!!!
Shadow is a good dude.
Thanks for the captions. I’ve been an observer for a few years. Question: Would the juvie attack the eggs like Ravens have done in the past? Was it a true threat? And second question: Does J&S move the eggs around for better incubation? Thanks, again, for allowing us to see such magnificent animals in their natural habitat. 🦅❤
Thanks for watching! I’m an observer like you, so not qualified to speculate on the seriousness of the threat posed by the sub-adult intruder. One can imagine that if the intruder actually entered the nest there could be a danger of egg breakage. I do know, however, that eagles (and other birds) roll the eggs to improve circulation of nesting material, to keep all parts of the egg at the same temperature, and to prevent the developing embryo inside the egg from sticking to the egg shell.
@@skhideaways You’re so kind for replying. Thanks for the info.
Shadow and Jackie are great together. The love they have for each other ❤
Nature is so fantastic.
Is the light added in editing?
Dang Shad’s head was on a swivel!
This was intense!!
wow, that was action-packed! The subtitles are great!
Those Eagles are Beautiful, a wonderful gift of God!
Wow I wonder what that juvi was thinking, any chance a previous baby?
Since Spirit was not banded, it is not possible to know for sure.
I’ve just started watching a couple days ago and am hooked! 😂
