Big Bear Eagles ~ DEFEND & PROTECT! Jackie & Shadow Unite To Chase Intruder Off! INTENSE Coverage!!

3.2.20 ~ Part two intruder coverage!
The adult intruder returns and lands on Dad's branch and attempts to come to the nest while Jackie is incubating. She is fierce and wing slaps once again and chases the intruder from the tree. Shadow lands on the high perch and both alert flying off the nest. Cam zooms in on the eggs at 2:08.
Jackie returns to the nest & Shadow to the high perch. He suddenly takes off and the intruder lands on the high perch at 4:16. Jackie is very upset and alerts loudly. The intruder suddenly flies off as Shadow arrives with intensity and full vocals. You can see the intruder flyby the nest at 5:54 as Jackie and Shadow both fly off after to chase him away. Loud vocals ring through Big Bear until it all calms down and Jackie returns to the nest. Stay tuned for more intruder coverage with part three! Thank you for watching!

“ HEY intruder, leave these two alone, they’ve had enough bad luck” !

[@carolynnunes3922]

Wowsers! Intense! What a determined intruder! And there’s a part 3?!? Thank you, M’lady Lady Hawk! I’ve noticed that there are several other people that also watch the eagle nest’s, and there are times where I’ve watched some of the others, but you are hands-down the best at what you do in editing, and you do great slo-mo! I love that you explain the videos so well, and prep us as to what the next scene entails...you keep us wanting more of what you do, dear Lady! And oh! How you love these birds! It shows!

[@lizzyyork]

That wing slap is just hilarious. I love Jackie!!!

[@RunAMuckGirl2]

Wow! This is a war. For goodness sakes, these two are having it tuff. Thank you for the coverage Lady Hawk.

[@hugovangalen]

Absolutely! Quite a rough start of the year for my favourite two Eagles! I am quite sad those eggs are not viable. :-( I was so happy to see her laying eggs just a day after I started checking in again this year...

[@RunAMuckGirl2]

@@hugovangalen - Oh I know. It tugs at the heart strings. :(

[@misfitsa2826]

Get em Shadow!!!! Protect Jackie💓

[@juanida1955]

I saw this Lady Hawk live. Jackie was face to face with an intruder. Lol and we thought it was Shadow. 😂. You could tell when the intruder vocalized, it wasn’t in a mannish way. More like a squeaky way.😁 Then Jackie kicked him/her to the curve. Lol. Then the CHASE begun! At least no one got hurt. But lots of drama. And yet intruder came back one last time. Like if he/she’s been here before. Maybe? Well it was an awesome time watching this. Thank you friend, Lady Hawk for sharing. The End. And Saga will probably continue. 😁.

[@captainstaysea3113]

Bless their hearts. We don’t even know if they know the eggs aren’t viable.

[@crystalship9900]

Captain Stay Sea I really love these guys and can’t check in all the time. The eggs really aren’t viable?? When should they have hatched? Makes me feel so sad for them 😞 😢

[@juanida1955]

I hate to say it but eggs aren’t viable. Should of hatched during Valentines Day weekend. And the other 1-3 days later. But it’s been 54 days for egg 1. Past due. Sooo sad 😢

[@captainstaysea3113]

Crystal Shipp they are way overdue. They are young. Guess they dk. Sad.

[@juanida1955]

Sad thing is J&S don’t know what went wrong. They can’t count. But good news, coming in Dec. they’ll try again.

[@Dreez76]

Too much snow, way too cold for a proper warmth from incubation .

[@Fadedecho1]

Hi friends. Wow shes a chirping. Squawking. They seem to be quite unsettled. Having a rough go at things. I feel for them. The hardships. Shes so voictrous. I wonder how long she will sit on that egg??? Wow the difference in vocals calls. This guy doesn't get it. Lol. No fly zone for intruders. Daddy's home haha.. love it.. they sure protect. Tysm for sharing ❣

[@trish818]

That is one determined intruder! Jackie and Shadow are just as determined to protect and defend their eggies! Listen to all those vocals!! 💕🦅 Staying tuned and hope it settles down soon for these parents.

[@dustigenes]

So determined one would think it knows the nest.

[@hadassah2998]

This was intense! I never knew this birds had so much drama in their bird life! I got a little concerned when they left the kids nest alone! I am glad they are both ok

[@bethmunden7328]

Love these eagles so much 💔😍🦅🦅💞

[@robinsisson8013]

That weather and wind...and the nest is so high up. Amazing eagles for sure

[@SamtheMan0508]

That's one stubborn intruder!

[@Aspasia..Ellada]

Спасибо за ролик и пояснения к нему. Очень интересно наблюдать за этими прекрасными птицами

[@blodynbach]

Oh dear! If one gets emotionally carried away, this occurrence certainly justifies a tumbler of whisky! Poor creatures.

[@monikd278]

It's a parents 's fight. ... intruder is enjoying ..snow is looking. But the lovely couple is ready to face everything bravely. ...vedio is expressing very clearly. ...thank you LH

[@lemonfizzy4963]

Wow! Great teamwork.

[@Richard-om7vd]

Excellent video.

Mom and dad are not happy 😤😤💪💪💪🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

[@bacigirl]

Oh no! As if part 1 & part 2 were enough, there’s a part3??? What Jackie & Shadow have been through this year! If I ever need to tell someone off, this is the video I will reference, for sure!

[@Fadedecho1]

Hi my friend ikr. Most definitely

[@Sasser2015]

These nest-cams really have come a long way since the early days. This looks like a scene from a friggin' movie.

[@MinibiteTran]

Seeing the nest empty I just wanna put my hand through the screen to clean the snow for them eggs and put some more puffy stuff 😩 so bad

[@stevengarcia7076]

👍

[@Dstew57A]

Wow this intruder is aggressive....lady hawk what do you think is going on here. I have never seen such aggression of an intruder so boldly trying to step into another eagles nest like this.

[@indigomisfit1027]

In my opinion I believe this to be Mr.BB, Jackie’s prevents mate.

[@davegarton3752]

Sitting on eggs in the snow. I never thought about it

[@cbass2755]

What does that other Eagle want? Why is it bothering her?

[@stevengarcia7076]

😇

[@nanettemclean5]

WOW!! ♥️

[@stevengarcia7076]

Bonito huevo

[@jagriggle1662]

This is a stupid question. Aren't there any eggs in incubation that they could put viable eggs in their nest?

[@carolv8450]

I believe it is too cold there. Laid eggs too late? Someone alluded to this before. Plus, it was an late snowstorm?...

[@suzycat2026]

This Intruder seems very familiar with Jackie? If he doesn't know her from before, he is very bold indeed! Poor J & S , they don't need this bother at this time. ❤ Is there a chance Mr.BB has returned? I never did see him. No chance it's Simba is it, he wouldn't have a white head yet? Another part to come! 😯 🤞 Thanks LH ❤🦅 🐱♏☯️🌌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@smandin1]

Simba isn't old enough to have the white yet.

[@dustigenes]

It could be a baby from another couple years back, or Mr BB, or even his first lady, sure seems bold and very familiar with the nest.

[@chriszablocki2460]

Those things seem like they do just fine protecting themselves.

[@chriszablocki2460]

Can we talk about the elephant in the room? What happened to my niece?

[@conure0876]

How do you know the eggs are not viable?

[@biancacrichigno6285]

❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

[@joannewagner1910]

Oh, my gosh!!!!

[@cecilia9169]

Why do you zoom in so tight that we can’t see what is happening. I’d prefer to look out to see intruder and when he landed, or mom wing slap, I don’t get zooming in on eggs that are not even close to hatching. Or so tight you can’t see one or the other landing, or their head. Thanks.

[@deborahriley1166]

What is that behavior? Is it lonely or trying to take over?

[@ravensanchez777]

Are they getting any food yet? Poor winged ones..😖

[@MinibiteTran]

I hate this snow just killing them bird :(

[@naturebird9177]

Jackie is a fierce defender of her nest💕🦅 Sad if this is Mr BB, he was a good Dad to Stormy. But my opinion is he and Jackie just didn’t have the chemistry she and Shadow have❤️

[@carolinerainey8072]

Isn't it cold for them

[@karengarrison4237]

What does he want?

[@nook12003]

I just hate seeing them so upset :(

[@stevengarcia7076]

Es yopey

[@kainemarsh9001]

these other birds want the nest? like why they do this

[@julierogers1155]

I may have missed this .... but, how often (rough percentage) are eagle eggs NOT viable?

[@captainstaysea3113]

Idk. Usually not both, I don’t think. Guess that’s a question for the experts.

[@dustigenes]

@@captainstaysea3113 Both their eggs were viable last year(Shadows first babies) and the year before I believe both Jackie's egg hatched, those were her first. Who know what happened this year, but it does happen.
