Every year they seem to find a wonky stick they can never figure out exactly where it belongs, then like a miracle it finds its place. Love these two ❤

[@1LetterLove]

Jacky and shadow are sweethearts. They love working together to make their love nest perfect for their eggs. It just warms my heart to see them, fixing up their nest with all these funky looking sticks. Just love them.

[@SusanM.]

Wishing J&S good health and nothing but the best this new year ! 🦅🦅❤

[@lisafusaro7174]

I swear watching Jackie and Shadow honestly melt my heart like no other

[@michaelhalahan]

Lisa: You Me and many , many others share that. Today was (for me) the J show although Cali divided J&S time almost equally. J tried a S stunt today--bringing in a long branch up & over the Simba LImb. But she hit it dead square and had to drop that talon side (Clutching branch in other) and braced for Nest landing on that free leg. and the branch in other. Imagine a 'Birdbrain' making that adjustment in about .2/sec. and landing safely in nest. I Favor Shadow because he goes out of his way too challenge his ability to use his flying abilities in different ways. But J doesn't come up short in the ability to fly in the same Sky with S .I'm Glad they do it in different ways--keeping all of us entertained. Fobby--overjoyed with the Super Sensitive Mic and the value it adds to these Videos--love those Clunk-crunch Nest landings(and other enhanced effects).

With all the sticks they've been gathering over time that nest has got to be very heavy. Hope those branch's are strong and don't break as happened last season to our Minnesota nesting pair.

[@michaelhalahan]

damama4209-This J Pine tree is very strong---all the way to the top. J&S were perched side by side on the end of the Simba LImb ,early on. That's J(14lbs)+S(10+lbs= 24lbs ) sitting side by side on a thin outboard branch. One can see the 'Spring' it still has as they take up Positions on it over time.

[@melissawarfield]

J&S love their wonky sticks! It's amazing how Shadow finds a perfect spot for those sticks. Jackie seems to be a perfectionist as to where the sticks go. Happy Beaketh New Year Jackie and Shadow! May 2024 bring egg's and eaglets hatching.

Looked for them All day

[@PossumLover1111]

I love watching them. And since I don't get to see them much live, these videos really help a lot. Thank you Calli Condor!

[@birutal4511]

Habt einen schönen Abend mit Jackie, Shadow und ihren schönen Stöcken,🦅😄 Thank you Cali Condor

[@dianestiner8602]

Sticks are a very serious daily occupation for these two lovebugs ❤. I wish I would be as good as Jackie & Shadow placing them 🤭 LOL😅 Happy New Year 🎉

[@michaellovell9625]

When Jackie stepped out to the front porch she dislodged a couple sticks that fell from the nest and one popped up and I thought it was going to hit here in the back. She did take a look to see what the noise was.

[@lisafusaro7174]

u mean shadow lol😊

[@jacquicoder7160]

@@lisafusaro7174 No, that was Jackie.

[@dolliemaesone]

Beautiful sunset picture she can really find the wonky sticks .

[@Yanquetino]

I love watching them break off twigs on the branches! They know their stuff! ❤

[@janesocalgal2278]

Fluff and snow will be here soon !!! Beautiful Jackie and Handsome Shadow + wonky stick !! thanks Cali Condor

[@minoububu]

So sweet our Jackie and Shadow ❤ 😊. Thanks for sharing this with us Cali ❤.

[@COnative070]

I swear they bring those big sticks with all the little twigs just so they can break them off with their beaks!

[@jacquicoder7160]

Jackie sure had a time with that really wonky stick but finally found a good resting place for it. I thought it was good that Shadow wasn't there or they would have been fighting over it. On the other hand, that would have been fun to watch. Thanks for the video, Cali, we appreciate it as always. Happy New Year everyone, we are hoping for good things in 2024.

Shadow @ 0:05 🎵🎶"He's a BRICK 🧱 House......he's mighty-mighty gettin' his nest all decked out‼️"🎶🎵🦅

[@RWald8888]

It rained there last night, and part of the morning. I'm about 68 miles southwest of thier location.

[@fakeperson4069]

❤🎉😊

[@Paul11B2P]

🎉🎉🎉

[@BlindSquirrel425]

They’re finishing the year with some sticks! Yay!🎉 Happy New Year, J, S, Cali, all mods and camera ops, FOBBV, and the whole eagle family worldwide! Cross your talons for a great new year and new season. TTE. ❤️🦅🦅

[@robjess466]

i just cant help but smile each time i see this pair. happy new year to you all and i know what im wishing for the next year to bring.

[@victoriabunnag4070]

Will they be mating soon and Jackie laying eggs??? I can't wait. I think this year, their luck will change!!! ☝️🙏♥️🤗🥰☔❄️☃️

[@honusmom5144]

Shadow waits for Jackie, Jackie moves and snips different sticks and Shadow adds his own touches afterwards. Jackie stays to get the last day of the day about stick placement. 😊 Such an interesting couple.

[@timrowe234]

Good spot

[@lorrem2539]

I want fluff!!

[@enricotoesca3941]

Happy New Year 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@tyrusmfrechs7025]

Why am I watching eagles bang at midnight

[@user-jr5hw4li4h]

While their nest looks really strong & sturdy, it doesn't look comfortable for sitting on eggs...when will they start adding "fluff" for possible eggs?

[@COnative070]

I was wondering the same thing! Too many sticks😊

[@BlindSquirrel425]

They’ll probably wait until closer to egg laying for more fluff. Cali pointed out recently that the years they’ve fledged chicks were years that less fluff was brought in before eggs were laid. Don’t worry. These two are great parents. TTE.

[@lisafusaro7174]

they are amazing parents they know what they are doing trust us Jackie and Shadow got this 💯

[@sandrasonger8765]

Your right her foot is swollen

[@karene9967]

They could use a little fluff

[@faithhutton1459]

Jackie's left foot is looking swollen and discolored.

[@YB_u]

Do they mate? If so, any idea when Jackie will lay eggs?

[@allavladimir1030]

Нет травы в гнезде, значит откладывать яйца ещё не собираются?
