Watch Live Now: Big Bear Eagle Cam Shows Bald Eagle Chicks Hatching in Big Bear Lake
• Hot Trendy News
[Intro]
Thousands of wildlife fans watching the Big Bear Eagle Cam were rewarded this morning when “Sunny,” the older of Jackie and Shadow’s two 2025 eaglets, lifted off the nest for a brief but historic first flight.
[The moment viewers have waited for]
At 10:46 a.m. PT, Sunny flapped from the well-known “Y-branch,” hovered for roughly three seconds, and glided to a lower perch before returning to the nest. The fledging milestone came after weeks of vigorous wing-whipping and hovering practice that captivated the livestream’s global audience.
[Why this flight matters]
• Marks the successful launch of the first 2025 chick from Big Bear Lake, proving that months of careful brooding and nonstop food deliveries paid off.
• Signals the start of “Fledge Watch,” a headline event that routinely causes a surge of traffic to the Friends of Big Bear Valley YouTube feed.
• Provides citizen scientists and classroom viewers rare data on bald-eagle development in real time.
[What about Gizmo?]
Sunny’s sibling, “Gizmo,” was seen flapping and branching mere minutes after Sunny’s flight, suggesting a second fledging could happen any day.
[Next steps for Sunny]
1. Short practice hops between nearby branches to build muscle and confidence.
2. Quick returns to the nest for free meals from parents Jackie and Shadow while honing self-feeding skills.
3. Gradual exploration of the Big Bear Lake shoreline before dispersing later this summer.
[How to watch live]
• Stream the 24/7 Big Bear Eagle Cam on the Friends of Big Bear Valley YouTube channel.
• Enable notifications for instant alerts when Jackie, Shadow, Sunny or Gizmo appear center-nest.
• Share timestamped clips on social platforms to boost conservation awareness and fuel the viral appeal that makes this cam a perennial SEO magnet.
[Behind the camera]
Installed high in a Jeffrey pine overlooking the lake, the solar-powered camera has delivered uninterrupted coverage of the clutch since egg-laying in late January. The nonprofit maintains the feed, moderates a chat of nearly 30,000 subscribers, and posts daily behavior logs on its website.
[Conservation takeaway]
Bald-eagle populations rebounded after the banning of DDT, yet habitat loss and human disturbance remain threats. Viewers are urged to keep a respectful distance if they visit Big Bear Lake, pack out litter and support raptor-rehab groups.
