One of Jackie and Shadow’s eaglets appears to be missing from Big Bear nest



Jackie and Shadow, the Big Bear bald eagle couple whose parenting journey has been livestreamed to the world, appear to be missing one of the three eaglets that hatched this season.

Video of the nest posted to social media Thursday afternoon showed three baby birds in the nest being fed by their parents.

But as of Friday, only two eaglets appeared to be in Jackie and Shadow’s nest, according to the Big Bear Bald Eagle Live Nest Cam.

It’s not clear what happened to the third eaglet.

“We were only able to see two chicks during the first feeding so we are not sure what is going on,” Jenny Voisard, media and website manager for Friends of Big Bear Valley said in a statement. “Our view into the nest bowl is partially obstructed by snow, and there is a big part of it that we cannot see.”

“Please hold positive thoughts as we wait to be updated by nature.”

Jackie laid three eggs at the end of January, according to Big Bear, and all three hatched last week.

The first hatched March 3, the second on March 4, and the third a few days later.

It is unclear which of the three birds is missing.
