:-) To see Video **Click in the comments :-)
1st egg 🥚 laid at 122pm & was 1st seen at 128pm
Jackie started labor at 119pm and it probably only last 5 minutes or so
Jackie tryed her best to keep the egg warm as the nest bowl had no fluff in it at all
the egg was laying right on the snow
213pm Shadow flys in with a stick & see's the egg for 1st time.
A precious moment when he gets to look at
his egg and touch it sweetly with his beak but did no harm it.
few mins later he flew back off
515pm Shadow flys in with Jackie a headless fish she stands by the egg and eats the
fish while Shadow stays up on the nest perch. He did not try to incabate the egg
after Jackie finished eating all the fish Shadow flew back off
Jackie settled back on the egg for the night...

This nest, it's high in the mountains of San Bernardino, overlooking Big Bear Lake.
The female, Jackie, had 2 eaglets last year 2018 her first eaglets, with another male
who has since been replaced.
The new male, who the locals have nicknamed Shadow, is a young male, likely
his first nest and first nesting season.
