BIG BEAR (CBSLA) — Big Bear’s resident bald eagle has laid her first egg of 2021, Friends of Big Bear announced Thursday.
According to Friends of Big Bear, the mother eagle, known as Jackie, laid the egg around 5:41 p.m. on Wednesday, January 6.
“Based on the past couple of years, we expect Egg #2 to appear in the next couple of days,” Friends of Big Bear said. “Until then, they’ll keep this egg a little cooler so development is slow. That way, they’ll hatch closer together.”
Because the incubation period is about 35 days from the second egg, it is believed the eggs could hatch around Valentine’s Day.
Live streaming of the egg can be watched on the Big Bear Lake Bald Eagles Nest Cam which is set up and operated through the Friends of Big Bear.
Donations to support the eagles and the eagle cam can be made here.
