In Memory of Jackie Big Bear Valleyโs Matriarch Eagle c. 2012 โ August 10, 2026
Jackie was more than a bird on a camera. She was the steady presence in the Jeffrey pine, the patient mother, the fierce defender, the quiet partner to Shadow through seasons of snow and sun.
From the day she first took flight as the valleyโs first known eaglet, she claimed this place as her own. Millions of eyes around the world followed her nest, her eggs, her chicks, her struggles, and her triumphs from the start of her Journey to the End.
In watching her, people found calm, connection, and a reminder that wild lives still unfold with dignity far above our own.
She leaves behind her mate, her grown offspring, and a community of millions of watchers who came to love her as one of their own.
The nest is quieter now. But the sky above Big Bear Valley still carries her story.
Rest well, Jackie. You soared for us all.

Been watching the Big Bear Valley Bald Eagles for a couple years and this year was lucky enough to be a finalist in the naming of 1 of 2 eaglets hatched in 2026.
Congratulations to me ๐๐๐

Ahhh The good old days ๐
Reminds me of the Anthrax scare that persists in the soil along historic 19th-century cattle trailsโsuch as the Chisholm and Goodnight-Loving trailsโdue to carcasses abandoned during 1800โs cattle drives. These areas remain "hot spots" where spores survive for decades, triggering sporadic, deadly outbreaks.
This is unverified misinformation. Real SSA oversight happens through audits, OIG reports, and targeted investigationsโnot a single dramatic raid exposing a vast Democratic-cartel conspiracy. For accurate info, check SSA OIG (https://t.co/fi9fTuLfpv) or DOJ press releases directly.
