Sad Update from Big Bear: One Egg Lost, Hope Remains for the Other

Big Bear, CA — A somber update emerged today from the Big Bear eagle nest, as observers confirmed that one of the two eggs appears to have been lost.
According to nest watchers, the egg showed visible signs of cracking earlier in the day. The situation worsened when a raven was seen near the nest, likely causing additional damage to the already compromised egg.
Both adult eagles, Jackie and Shadow, were absent from the nest for an extended period following the incident, raising concern among viewers. However, there is a hopeful development: Jackie has since returned and is back on the nest, carefully incubating the remaining egg. It's unclear if it was damaged as well.
