EAGLE NEST PIP WATCH Friday 3/8/23

Mar 8, 2024, 7:01 AM

God's work is amazing in so many ways. This is just one example. The million dollar view is not bad either.

I am posting this excerpt from the Friends of Big Bear Valley and the link to the facebook page.

"Over the past few days we have received an amazing number of comments and feedback from our global community about Jackie and Shadow. We appreciate this amazing outpouring of support! Please rest assured that our team is working as fast as we can to get back to everyone and address all inquiries.
In the meantime and to assist in answering some of the more pressing questions, we will use this official Facebook page to update you and report our observations:
We understand that everyone is worried about the eggs, some afraid to watch the cam, some afraid to turn away.
We wish there was an obvious pip that we could report, but so far, there is not. We do not know why or how. But that is nature.
Eggs 2 and 3 are still within the possible hatching window. Egg 1 is probably not.
Sometimes watching nature is hard and our logical mind cannot understand and thinks it needs facts and absolutes. At the same time, our emotional mind wants to have something to hold onto, something to calm its confusion and its fears.
We stopped zooming on the eggs so often because it seemed to be causing more upset and concern than curiosity and calmness. If and when a pip happens, we do not have to know about it instantly. We will see it soon enough.
Watching nature builds our patience, our strength, our compassion and our resilience.
As a biologist, watching human as well as animal behavior, I know that sometimes when we worry, we tend to get upset with the people and things around us. Or to want to blame something…because that’s easier than feeling what is happening inside, especially sadness.
Please allow yourself to feel whatever you are feeling. When you feel it, it can dissolve.
And in the meantime, we will watch what is happening in nature…
Jackie and Shadow have not given up on anything and continue their dedicated egg care.
The weather yesterday was snow and sleet all day and into the night. It sleeted last nigh as hard as I have ever seen sleet."
