Some might think watching a sleeping Eagle for 10 minutes is like watching paint dry. I beg to differ...that was the most beautiful scene. The slow breaths, the sleepy eyes. It brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful.
Jackie gets Mom of the Year award and Shadow is just an angel. So peaceful watching him close up like that sleeping. I do see they are indeed waterproof.
Birds have an oil gland at the base of their tails. When they groom their feathers, they get a bit of the oil in their beaks and then groom each feather with the oil. That is what the reason is for water resistant feathers.
She is surrounded in this big donut of snow that Im sure protects them from the wind and insulates them as well. She actually looks pretty cozy & happy which helps me to know they are going to get thru this with no issues! Go Jackie & Shadow!! You Rock!!❤Think Spring!
You have no idea how much confidence and courage it gives me to watch these two hold, warm, defend and love a nest and life together. Ayez courage mon eagles! Who says we can't learn from animals? They teach us everything!
That's one spring snow , take care and stay strong, beautiful Jackie! Your inspiration and dedications are simply amazing!🎉 Hopefully we get to see better days ahead! Thx for sharing Cali!🎉
It’s actually quite extraordinary that we get to witness the love, compassion, loyalty & strong commitment they both have for each other! It’s inspiring and beautiful! 💕
As hard as it is to see Jackie buried completely in snow,i think its probably warm inside the igloo type shelter with Jackie's body heat and waterproof feathers..im praying for warm sunny weather.
The love, commitment that Shadow and Jackie have is amazing! I know the eggs aren’t viable but boy she is truly committed to them! I wish them well and God Bless 🙏✝️🙏
Excellent camera work FOBBV/Cali Condor! Gorgeous close-ups of Shadow with the glistening snow and water droplets then his eye opening and closing (is that because he was aware of planes maybe from the USAF base?). The clips of Jackie were funny. All n all, entertaining, educational and delightful to watch. I felt like I was there in their world. Thanks.
I was also concerned about the weight of the snow on the nest. It’s amazing how these beautiful eagles really captivate your heart. I woke up few times last night to check on her. 😊 Sending our warm sunny day, in Australia, to you 🙂
So sad to see their dedication for the eggs is not rewarded again this season, but their love & dedication for each other will carry them through to more successful seasons❤
I know! So many of us are just so heartbroken 💔 for them . If anyone deserves to be parents it’s them . Such love 💕 & dedication toward those eggs 💕🦅💕💔😢
Aw so sweet seeing Shadow napping in the sun and snow. Great close ups. I wish they would just go take a vacation together. I’m surprised their instincts are t telling them the eggs aren’t viable and it’s okay to give up.
It breaks my heart to see Jackie nestling in with those eggs, knowing that they won't hatch. We could all learn about perseverance and self-sacrifice from her. It's miraculous how a single bird can teach thousands of people.
That snow is just incredible. I looked at the nest this morning and saw Jackie just almost buried in it. I must admit to first wondering if she was alive because she wasn't moving at all. Thankfully, I could scroll back on the livestream a bit and see that she had been moving around. I love how Shadow was enjoying a nap and the waterproof feathers are amazing. I also was in awe of the way they blink from the bottom up instead of the top down like us humans, as he slowly opened and closed his eyes. Thanks for another great video, Cali. You are awesome.😊
I was thinking the same thing about his lower eye lid going up to close and open. Not from the top down as humans. I cannot express my feelings enough of how much I love Jackie and Shadow. Thanks to everyone involved in bringing this to us.
Sweet sweet Jackie, still protecting her precious eggs from the storm. Shadows water beads were amazing, he is the most handsome eagle man on the planet.♥♥
That was so worth watching, I’ve never seen either one rest like that so sound, & carefree. They both keep me speechless , I’m just so captured in their world, of EVERYTHING about them! So fascinating to see what each day brings & how they go about it! Way better than some humans for sure! J.&S., you both are so loved, & we are so blessed to know you phenomenal bald eagles! 🙏❣️
I knew a storm was coming to Big Bear but I did not know it would be this severe. I dread to think how the bobbles would have fared, even with Jackie and Shadow brooding. Not only keeping the eaglets warm, but also fed. I'm relieved that Jackie and Shadow are old enough to take care of themselves in harsh weather conditions, like today. 💖🦅🦅💓
Great, wonderful close ups of Shadow's waterproof feathers. Thanks again, Cali Condor for all you show us, of their daily lives & dedication to each other.🤗
I was watching live when the water droplets extreme closeup happened and was hoping you'd make a video including that! ❤ It was pretty incredible. Thank you as always for these!
Omg this video is priceless I didn’t expect it when she popped her head up out of snow , she just made me smile , her endurance is strength for us all , Happy Easter, Jackie and shadow you truly are a blessing.😇
I gasped when I clicked on the cam today. Poor babies. Took some nice screenshots of them buried, though. Especially of Shadow since he’s not usually a snowy nester. The start of this video with the usual arrow label cracked me up. It was really needed! 😆
What a beautiful close up they both are gorgeous !❤ this couple melt my heart, I wish at least one egg could hatche!! They have been working soo hard!! 😢
How my heart breaks for these two beautiful birds..... I know that snow can be an insulator, but it's very hard to watch her being buried in it... What they are teaching about life and love at it's most basic level... Love these 2.....
Absolutely amazing! Been watching for a couple of years now and they still amaze me. Trust the eagles, they are just fine. Love ya Jackie and Shadow, God bless ❤ Happy Easter!
Thank you for posting this video Cali! :D I missed the close up of Shadow. That is so amazing how the water beads up like that. I was in awe. They are amazing creatures. Jackie and Shadow are so beautiful.
It would be so nice if these two beauties could catch a break for more than half a minute. Still, their patience, endurance and loving devotion to one another is awe-inspiring. It's humbling to watch. ❤❤😊
That lady will be sure one good momma. It’s amazing how dedicated they both are to one another. Humans are not always that dedicated. Burrrr. Makes me cold just watching 😊
wow! is the past several weeks...since incubating eggs...more snow than is typical for the area? feel like every 2-3 weeks the nest gets buried...Thx Cali
My grandmother is a federally licensed birder in the state of Connecticut and I gave her the link to see this beautiful eagle couple and she said that all the snow even though Jackie and Shadow were incubating has a huge impact on the eggs and is convinced that the snow and temperatures are the reason why the 3 eggs have not hatched . I do not think Shadow or Jackie are sterile I think my grandmother is right , I think it has to do with the weather too .
so amazing to watch them also the hydrophobic feathers with thousands of tiny water droplets looks absolutely wonderful, they look like an evening gown
I was imagining myself as J and how serene I felt snuggled in the bowl, feathers keeping me warm and dry with the sun gently warm on my face. You can't buy this! 🦅🌲🐟🇺🇲

Mom of the year is for moms that have babies
She is surrounded in this big donut of snow that Im sure protects them from the wind and insulates them as well. She actually looks pretty cozy & happy which helps me to know they are going to get thru this with no issues! Go Jackie & Shadow!! You Rock!!❤Think Spring!
Jackie & Shadow...my two favorite snow angels. ❄💨🦅💙🦅💤
🎉
I love it when Jackie calls, Shadow comes running. Wish I could say the same for my husband.😊 What love they have for each other. So inspiring.
❤
Such dedication and strength. Humans should be more like these two angels.
❤
We love you Jackie and Shadow ❤❤ all those water beads on Shadow looks like a coat of diamonds ❤❤
You have no idea how much confidence and courage it gives me to watch these two hold, warm, defend and love a nest and life together. Ayez courage mon eagles! Who says we can't learn from animals? They teach us everything!
Perhaps that is because we too, are members of the animal world.
❤
You can even see Shadow breathing …. That is awesome ! God is great !
❤
That's one spring snow , take care and stay strong, beautiful Jackie!
Your inspiration and dedications are simply amazing!🎉
Hopefully we get to see better days ahead!
Thx for sharing Cali!🎉
😢😢💔
I love watching their daily routine, so natural, and feel very blessed to be a small part of it through viewing and learning ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It’s actually quite extraordinary that we get to witness the love, compassion, loyalty & strong commitment they both have for each other! It’s inspiring and beautiful! 💕
Love the extreme closeups. It's so wild to be that close to them.
Imagine if they had 3 young ones to shelter from this snow storm!
I was wondering the same thing. I think the weather this winter may have something to do with the eggs not hatching also.😢
Whatever it takes! ❤
It's amazing how they endure this year after year! ❤🦅
I love the way Shadow got in the nest , snuggled up and went to sleep.
As hard as it is to see Jackie buried completely in snow,i think its probably warm inside the igloo type shelter with Jackie's body heat and waterproof feathers..im praying for warm sunny weather.

Shadow looks so cute when he's asleep 😍. And the shimmer of the snowflakes on his plumage is beautiful ☺️.
Shadow, just glistens!
So sad to see their dedication for the eggs is not rewarded again this season, but their love & dedication for each other will carry them through to more successful seasons❤
I know!
So many of us are just so heartbroken 💔 for them .
If anyone deserves to be parents it’s them .
Such love 💕 & dedication toward those eggs 💕🦅💕💔😢
The beads of water on Shadow look like diamonds.
What amazing undying dedication💯💜💜💜
A Mother's love😊 Still those nasty ravens😮
Aw so sweet seeing Shadow napping in the sun and snow. Great close ups.
I wish they would just go take a vacation together. I’m surprised their instincts are t telling them the eggs aren’t viable and it’s okay to give up.
We love you dear, precious Jackie and Shadow❣️🦅🦅❤❤🙏🙏
It breaks my heart to see Jackie nestling in with those eggs, knowing that they won't hatch. We could all learn about perseverance and self-sacrifice from her. It's miraculous how a single bird can teach thousands of people.
I almost fell into sleep myself watching Shadow, it was so calming and beautiful💖💖💖

OMG. Blessed Angels in the aerie.
Great close-up of Shadow with his eyes closed and his beak buried in the snow. ❤😢
Mother Nature at its finest!
Such fabulous close up shots, finally a peaceful moment for such hardworking parents. Thank you for sharing these wonderful videos.

Love, love, love the close up of Shadow sleeping with his rhinestone covered feathers.
the nest & fluff will provide better protection than being on a limb...amazing stamina!
I knew a storm was coming to Big Bear but I did not know it would be this severe. I dread to think how the bobbles would have fared, even with Jackie and Shadow brooding. Not only keeping the eaglets warm, but also fed. I'm relieved that Jackie and Shadow are old enough to take care of themselves in harsh weather conditions, like today. 💖🦅🦅💓
Great, wonderful close ups of Shadow's waterproof feathers.
Thanks again, Cali Condor for all you show us, of their daily lives & dedication to each other.🤗
Survivor, Safety, and Security! These do what they have to do- no one tells them❤❤❤
I was watching live when the water droplets extreme closeup happened and was hoping you'd make a video including that! ❤ It was pretty incredible. Thank you as always for these!
I like “Snow Angels” I think that’s perfect.
Omg this video is priceless I didn’t expect it when she popped her head up out of snow , she just made me smile , her endurance is strength for us all , Happy Easter, Jackie and shadow you truly are a blessing.😇
The exotic Diamond-back Eagle.
Such a priceless look with beak in the snow sleeping 🦅🦅❣️❣️❣️
Wow, Jackie & Shadow need a roof on that nest, geez! ❤
❤❤❤❤if we just learn a little of resilience like them.
Thank you CaliCondor for those amazing excerpts from their day!
I love Jackie! ❤❤❤❤❤
J💘S 🦅❤ BEST. VIDEO. EVER. ❤🦅J💘S

@nancyculliton Eggs aren't viable
Thank you for posting this video Cali! :D I missed the close up of Shadow. That is so amazing how the water beads up like that. I was in awe. They are amazing creatures. Jackie and Shadow are so beautiful.
Oh my goodness the 30th and covered in snow, poor couple never getting a break...
❤
❤
Put its head away from snow- cuddling and give warmth to the eggs!❤
I could watch this amazing creature sleep in well deserved peace all day. 🎉
It would be so nice if these two beauties could catch a break for more than half a minute. Still, their patience, endurance and loving devotion to one another is awe-inspiring. It's humbling to watch. ❤❤😊
Beautiful closeup of Shadow!
This season has been a tough one! Hoping spring arrives soon for these two.😮
That lady will be sure one good momma. It’s amazing how dedicated they both are to one another. Humans are not always that dedicated. Burrrr. Makes me cold just watching 😊
When I woke up this morning, I didn't think I'd be watching a Bald eagle sleeping sleeping sleeping in the snow. Quite restful and inspiring, too.
wow! is the past several weeks...since incubating eggs...more snow than is typical for the area? feel like every 2-3 weeks the nest gets buried...Thx Cali
Happy Easter 🐰🐇🐣 gorgeous Jackie and awesome dad ❤️🦅❤️🦅🙏🙏

Feathers looked like diamonds reflecting from the sun so beautiful 🦅♥️
What awesome shots of these guys, they are so beautiful. ❤
Love Me Some Shadow!
Are you kidding me !!! More snow 😢unbelievable !!
Shadow sparkles in real life, as we all knew he did even without the melted snow on him. 😊
Sleeping so peacefully what a sight such beauty 🦅♥️

So much snow. They seem happier on sunny days. They love Big Bear Lake and Valley. It’s their home. ❤
Jackie is covered in spring snow, Thanks Cali Condor
so amazing to watch them
also the hydrophobic feathers with thousands of tiny water droplets looks absolutely wonderful, they look like an evening gown
oh my goodness! when will this relentless snow end out there? poor Jackie!! i feel for her plight. she so wants those eggs to hatch.
I remember this one as well poor jackie but she was a warruor keeping them babies warm🦅♥️
Aww Shadow fell comfortably 🥰🥰
I was imagining myself as J and how serene I felt snuggled in the bowl, feathers keeping me warm and dry with the sun gently warm on my face. You can't buy this! 🦅🌲🐟🇺🇲
WOW just Wow! 🦅❤️🦅❤️
Que paz me ha inspirado Shadow.Los adoro.🦅🦅❤️
Thank you!
