1-25-2023 Jackie Has A Tough Day…And A New Record!

- Two days ago, Jackie went into full egg protection mode when a group of ravens decided to pester her while she was on the nest. The ravens swooped around the nest and even landed on both the front porch and the back porch, trying to scare Jackie off of those eggs.
But Jackie was ready. She hunkered down over those eggs, squealing at the ravens to get away. When a raven got too close, she wing-slapped the nest, showing that raven that she means business and she will not allow it anywhere near the nest. And she set a new record for the number of wing-slaps in one event-16 times!!
She chortled a message out to Shadow to come fast. Shadow answered from a distance and soon flew into the nest, chasing ravens away. Both Jackie and Shadow shouted at those circling ravens for a long time. The ravens would not give up easily but finally left the area.
Shadow stayed at the nest with Jackie the whole time. He huddled close as Jackie protected the eggs. Finally, when all was clear, Jackie stood up and Shadow immediately took her place over those precious eggs.
When Jackie came back from her well-deserved break, she brought a huge, complex stick with her. She landed it on the nest and worked to turn it over to get just the right angle to grab hold and find it’s location…but that silly stick did a flip-over on its own and fell right off the edge of the nest.
Poor Jackie watched it fall and apparently felt so disappointed about losing that stick that she let out a few mournful squeals. As she then took over egg-sitting, Shadow chortled softly at her…perhaps with a little promise…
…And he soon came back with a giant catfish to make Jackie feel better. It even had the head still intact and he put it right on her back to make sure she knew the whole thing was hers.
After her nice lunch, Jackie was able to settle back in on the eggs, probably feeling much better.

oh, Jackie, you did so well not to leave your babies! We love you!!
Ravens are intelligent too but Jackie knew what they wanted! Her fierce slaps showed them she's not taking their bait! Shadows arrival calmed her down! We love you both. Stay safe!!❤️🦅🦅
Jackie and Shadow, you both protected your egglets so we. Jackie gave so many wing slaps that I lost count. Love seeing Shadow chasing away the ravens and then swooping in to calm Jackie. Thank you FOBBV for this action packed video. Well done Jackie and Shadow. 🦅
Poor Jackie and shadow.😢those ravens are such pests. Such dedicated eagle parents. ❤️❤️ 🦅
The way you set up the video with such detail, and to me more educational, is excellent and appreciated.
Great job Jackie! Good rescue Shadow!
I bet Shadow would like to catch that crow and give it to Jackie for lunch
Bad ravens never leave alone the precious eagles blessed majestic eagles and 🥚🥚🙏🙏🙏🙏
Aww poor Jackie but good not go out and Shadow came. I never see that ravens do this day is scare and mad. 🙏🏼🙏🏼Good job beautiful Eagles 👍🙏🏼🙏🏼🥰🥰
Facinating, and see the way they work together 🥰
Oh how I’ve fallen in love with these two. Good job protecting your babies.
Ravens are a dangerous challenge. They are opportunistic, aggressive and persistent. Experienced Jax didn't fall for distractions, and eventually it was Shad to the rescue !!!
Incredible video!! It’s amazing how relentless the Ravens are. Way to go Jackie and Shadow!! ❤
Ravens are very intelligent animals
Absolutely loved the comments and descriptions. 👍🦅💗🦅. Thank you
Great mommy enjoy the fresh fish 🐟 👏👏👏🌹❤️🌹❤️🦅🦅
love seeing Shadow @4:57 just majestically swoop down to chase that raven, GO GET'EM! 🦅❤️
Great post..so well said. Majestic Shadow!

I remember this, Jackie knows best. Love this pair & look forward to Valentine's Day for pipping time. 🙂🏴
Love your commentary.
Just love these two ❤❤
I love the way shadow sits next to Jackie to comfort her until she’s ready to leave the eggs, the ravens are real pests I’m surprised shadow doesn’t attack them
The ravens are beautiful creatures in their own right. Shadow would attack them if he could, however, the ravens are much quicker and more agile. Trying to attack them would have been futile. It would be a waste of energy to try to engage the ravens when the imminent danger to the eggs is over. Another fantastic video though, thanks FOBBV.
he did attack, look at 4:57 in the background you can see shadow chasing the raven
I’m watching replay at 4:30 pm eastern time. I was so afraid for them. So beautiful how they protect those eggs
Great job gorgeous mom protect the precious eggs 🥚 🥚🌹🌹🌸💜🌸💜
so glad to see Shadow come to her call
Oh my goodness! Really such a day for sweet Jackie.
Adorable and sweet parents 💜💕💜⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks, Sandy for the story and clip!
Thry are such good parents ❤🦅🦅
How scary this was to watch!! The determination of that raven to draw Jackie off the nest!! This was a viscous fight for survival!! Jackie is so brave, smart, & loving! Her reaction to call for Shadow helped me calm down, too! But he flew away too soon. Jackie called him back & let him know she & the egg birds need better protection! She might also have said, "I want raven for dinner tonight!". Good momma, Jackie!! I love you, your sweet egg birds, and Shadow. God Bless!
Shadow needs eat some of those Ravens. Thank you Shadow for helping Jackie and eggs
That was tough to watch. I’m glad those eggs are safe.
Wow, they were coming at her from both sides. The ravens are a lot peskier this year but our eagle parents are a lot more protective. Shadow the ultimate fish hunter! Good thing Jackie didn't want catfish and eggs. 💞💞
It's amazing how bold the ravens can be but our dynamic duo knows how to handle them.
It seemed like forever for Shadow to show up. Good job beautiful Mama!
Thanks 🙏 great daddy back to protect mom and precious eggs 🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️
Judging from the shadows I saw leaving over the nest and the ravens that flew away when Shadow arrived, there were quite a few ravens. Luckily all ended well!
Those are powerful wingslaps! If she happens to nail one of those ravens you’ll see feathers flying for days lol !!! As Shadow was standing beside Jackie on the nest it was like she was telling him all about the horrible and scary moments she had with those brazen birds! 😮
Sandy, you are top notch! Thank you.
This was quite the day indeed! Awesome write up Sandy. Always enjoy reading your insights😊🦅🦅
Afternoon raven attacks are causing intense concern for our beloved pair of bald eagles. My heart just tightens and I hold my breath when the attack comes. Hold out Jackie and Shadow! Hold out another family rearing season! You have immense power behind you if you can tap into it! We send you great love and strength! 💙❄️🌙🦅🦅🦅🦅
What a Team…..♥️
4:00 that’s the call for Shadow!
I felt so bad for Jackie! Wanted to help her!
If it was just her in the nest she would have just killed them honestly
11:04 Shadow went to get a branch to build a fence around the nest 😊
but had lost it
That was Jackie bringing in that Stick..looks like it fell off tho
Just back to the channel, left shortly after spirit left. I gathered she is sitting on two eggs. Any other pertinent information out there I missed. I can honestly say I’m a little stoked to be back.
That's Our Queen, Jackie. 1 ferocous Mamá! Get 'em, Shady!!!!!🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅 So freaken freezing❄️⛄️☃️ Jackie needs a Saw.....
These two work very well together, a true test of time.
Love how mama is protecting her babies.
This is the best video yet! Thank you!
Poor Jackie she lost her stick. Apparently she didn’t care and then awesome. Shadow puts another catfish on top of her that was unusual. Jackie didn’t eat it right away she I think they are protecting the eggs more so because of the ravens, they really hurt them in the past with Their eggs so I understand why they feel that way. They are awesome to watch and it seems like Jackie you can hear her through the whole mountain. She is one vocal eagle. That’s the one thing I love about her she’s so unusual and shadow is so patient and I love shadow, they are awesome thanks for the great video. I usually watch them every day. I can’t wait until the eggs start hatching stay strong and stay safe both of you. Keep safe and warm. Love you two!
Love you, mom🌹💖
I love ravens Its scary how smart and bold they are. I love all the cool sounds they make too. happy eggs are safe tho : D
These two are definitely on their toes when it comes to their pesky neighbors. ❤
Cool video
The ravens need to leave mom Jackie and dad Shadow alone.
That ridge line to the top right or southeast of nest I was there calling in a fire out after a summer storm. Got drenched by the storm. Hahaha
The pushy birdie would be a good snack for Jackie. I need to speak to Shadow what he thinks about this 🍖 🦅 🙂
Amazing! They are stressing me out!
Shadow looks so protective
hope they not leaving the egg unattended. If not for sure its gone. Raven knows got food there ..
Nothing more satisfying to this Bengals fan than to see ravens lose. 🙂
Shadow needs to come back and eat that nasty crow..
❤❤❤
He DA BIGGEST BIRD
Well that was taking it to the extreme Shadow!
Getting the crows to harass Jackie, doing all that running around just to get her mad enough to leave and chase them herself and leave you to sit on the eggs.
Standing on her back worked last year, you might want to stick with that.
🤣
Jackie has a impressive wingspan
The ravens job is to taunt dear Jackie and she’s not having it. They are so brazen getting that close. Shadow where are you….he heard her!!
nasty ravens, so stressful for Jackie
Here we are again-looks like I’m late!! Two eggs?!?!?
Rude ravens!! I had one eat a baby hummingbird from a nest that I watched from start to when it hatched 😢
Not happy with Mother Nature at the moment. Usually don't have ill will towards animals, but those ravens got me hot!
Aloha
Governments and Masons don't use the eagle as symbol of power and wisdom for a reason, they are smart creatures.
I real bad for snowie😭
Have there been any Spirit sightings? Can’t believe it’s been a year already
what is with the chat one day I can comment and the next no I used to TS before
Does anyone know how high that tree is?
😃🦎🎱⚾🪁 oh my
Just awful the way they tag team trying to trick Jackie off of those eggs! I know it's nature but...
I don't think the ravens are all that interested in the eggs right now. They're just playing a game, as all Corvids like to do with raptors. They like to mob them and harass them. But the eagles aren't amused!
까마귀가 독수리한테 덤비기도 하는군요
Does no one know that a group of ravens is an "unkindness of ravens?" Group? Not correct.
I am here to support this nest and the moderator, who keeps us informed, in a positive way. What is important is the welfare of the eagles and their eggs, not being critical of the semantics of the narrative.
@@lindakaymills8746 I'm very sorry that knowledge offends you. I like watching the eagles, but I can live without it.
This is not a good thing to see happening. I am worried that if & when the eaglets hatch that this could be even more dangerous because Jackie or Shadow could accidently step on 1 of the eaglets & do some serious injury to them while trying to protect their nest. I don't remember these ravens being this annoying in the past while J & S were incubating their eggs. I remember the ravens destroying the eggs because J & S for some odd reason didn't incubate the eggs. Maybe I just didn't see a lot of videos with the ravens annoying them in the past. This must be very stressful for them. Hope all will turn out ok.
Wheres spirit?
How many eggs do they have now?
Two
2 😊
@@mjc871 Thank you. Have a great weekend.
@@mjc871 I thought so. Thank you. Have a great weekend. ❤
Is that a cat
Esses corvos abusados ☹️

Amazing!
