Bald Eagle Nest - Big Bear Valley, California, USA
Last updated October 13, 2026High in a Jeffrey pine in the San Bernardino National Forest, above Big Bear Valley in Southern California, this camera looks straight into one of the most famous bald eagle nests in the world.
From 2018 the nest belonged to Jackie and Shadow, a pair followed by millions of viewers, who raised seven chicks here together. Jackie died on August 9, 2026, at the age of 14, after spending her whole life in Big Bear Valley.
Shadow came back to the nest a few days later, and on August 15 a younger banded female known as Kaydee was seen spending hours there with him, though it's still too early to say whether she'll become his new mate.
Did You Know? Bald eagles keep adding sticks to the same nest year after year, and some nests grow more than 6 feet (2 m) wide and weigh hundreds of pounds.
