Beloved eagle mom lays first egg of season in CA. See Jackie's much-anticipated moment
Briefly

Jackie, the bald eagle, laid her first egg of the 2025 season on January 22, 2025, in her nest in Big Bear, California. The moment was captured on camera, with Jackie making unique sounds during the laying process. After struggling for two years without a successful hatch, viewers are filled with optimism that this time will be different. Supporters expressed their positive hopes and prayers on social media, eager for a successful hatching this year. Jackie and her partner, Shadow, can be watched live through a nonprofit eagle camera.
As she pushes the egg through her body, she makes small, squeaky sounds, similar to a tea kettle when it steams.
Yay. 2025 is the year!!! I almost feel like an egg-laying party!! Positive vibes and prayers this year is a success and they both stay safe.
Oh Jackie needs a hatchling this year. Praying to God she gets her baby. It's been a long road for her.
Fingers crossed, we are rooting for you Jackie and Shadow.
