Im always blown away at all
Im always blown away at all birds' nest building abilities. It isn't something that the parents teach them. It is inherent knowledge. From hummingbirds to eagles, It's astonoshing that with nothing more than materials from their surrounding environment, they can build the perfect structure for nesting, egg laying, hatching and development of their offspring. Able to withstand almost anything mother nature throws at it as well. Truly remarkable.

Hatching and a Pip!
Hatching and a Pip!
The first egg is still in the process of hatching, it is not considered hatched until it is completely free of the egg shell. The chick has popped its head out of the shell to say a happy hatch day to mom and dad!
It also appears that the second egg has a pip. It is not well defined as of this morning, but we will likely see more progress throughout the day.
Congratulations Jackie & Shadow, their work has just begun.
Thank you again for following this grand journey of Jackie and Shadow.

They had a nice feeding at about 7:00 Pacific time. Nice to see the second one up and standing and being fed. They're on their way!
The nation will be captivated once again with an added bonus - getting educated about habitat protection this year with the threatened sale of land.

It's the best thing on the internet! Hope these chicks make it all the way. Last year's experience - watching the chicks take flight from the nest - was the best thing ever!!!

Fascinating watching fierce looking eagles gently caring for the floofs. I don't like when they both leave the nest.
