Dear Jackie,
Somewhere between the earth and the heavens, where the mountains touch the clouds and the wind carries the prayers of those who love you, there is a place where hope refuses to die.
Somewhere between earth and sky, hope still livesand it has your name.
Jackie.
You are still here.
Still breathing.Still fighting.Still holding on.
And because you are holding on...
so are we.
All across the world, there are people who have never watched you cradle your babies beneath your magnificent wings. People who have never heard your call echo across the mountains. People who have never watched your shadow pass over the earth as you soared through a limitless blue sky.
And yet somehow...
You found your way into our hearts.
We wake wondering about you.We search for every update.We hold our breath for every little sign that you are stronger.We celebrate every tiny victory.
You are not just an eagle.
You are Jackie.
Born beneath the skies of Big Bear.A daughter of those mountains.A mother.A mate.A fierce and fearless protector.The Royal Queen of Big Bear.
You have spent your life defending the family you love.You have fought for your babies.You have stood beside Shadow.You have known the freedom of the wind beneath your wings and the endless sky above your head.
You belong to the mountains.
You belong to the sky.
You belong with your family.
when you are ready…
LOOK UP.
Because Shadow will be waiting.
And beneath that endless blue sky, there will be thousands upon thousands of hearts waiting with him.
Hearts that have never met you,yet somehow love you.
And when you finally rise...
When those magnificent wings open again...
When you lift yourself from the earth and begin your journey home...
There will be tears.
A Queen reclaim her kingdom. FLY HOME, QUEEN.
YOUR MOUNTAINS ARE WAITING.
YOUR FAMILY IS WAITING.
SHADOW IS WAITING.
AND YOUR SKY...
YOUR BEAUTIFUL, ENDLESS SKY...
HAS BEEN WAITING FOR YOU ALL ALONG.
YOUR MOUNTAINS ARE WAITING

Dearest Jackie,
I think of you daily. I wait for your medical records, I watch your children eat the fis that dad brings them. And I pray that you return to your home healthy. I’ve learned a lot about how humans don’t do enough to protect our environment because of you. I cried when I saw you muddle through the water looking so beat. With many others I pray for your healing and return to your home. I wonder why science can’t figure out your health problems. You are as important to this country and around the world as is our space achievements. So why is it not one scientist/doctor figure out your health issues. Your story will carry on forever but my wish is your healthy comeback. It’s been an honor to be a part of your journey. With much love

I have been watching Jackie and Shadow and their family. I have learned a lot about eagles. I am still so amazed by their parenting skills and their dedication and love they give to each other and their eaglets. Such devotion is sometimes not seen in humans. I never realized that it existed in animals. I love Shadow and Jackie and their babies so much.
I hope and pray that Jackie fully recovers and is sitting on a branch on that Juniper tree. She is a wonderful, beautiful and strong eagle.
I will be anxiously waiting her return to Big Bear Valley.
Love you Shadow, Jackie, Luna and Sandy.

Hello Jackie, I fell in love with you and Shadow after the Ravens destroyed your eggs and you laid 2 more, Sandy and Luna. Shadow helped you just like a mate is supposed to do, he sat on the eggs while you got food and sometimes didn't want to get up, which meant that He was vested in their growth. The Easter Eve, one was hatched and on Easter day, the other was hatched, that's when my love for all of you took root. I have watched every day, every week, since and talk about you, Shadow, Luna and Sandy like you are part of my family! You have got to ge6 better Sandy, Shadow is hurting and the young eagles! I love your entire family and pray that you are able to go back and be with all of them, especially Shadow, he misses and waits for you! Blessings and Peace!🙌🙏🙏🙏

Hi there Momma Jackie! 2 years ago if someone told me that I would be sending get well wishes to a bird, I would have told them they were crazy! I'm from Alaska. I've seen hundreds of bald eagles. I've heard eaglets chirping in the trees. I was awe struck by their grace and majesty. But I never got attached to them. I stumbled across this beautiful family and I was hooked.
Prayers for you, your family that is missing you, FOBBV who have graciously let me watch your beautiful family and everyone, and I mean EVERYONE involved with your care. From the veterinarians, laboratory personnel, radiology department, receptionists, social media reporters, custodial staff, handlers, those helping find nutritional food for her, drivers, couriers, etc. I know that I left some of the team out and I apologize for that. And a HUGE shout out to Spirit for donating blood.
Get well my feathered friend 🧡
I will be on the sidelines cheering you and your family on.
AndreaJust an almost middle aged mom of humans who wishes you well

Jackie,
Following you the last year has been a tremendous privilege. Your beauty and power are unmatched. I want you to be happy and healthy and I have faith God will give you the strength you need to fly high again. In an odd twist your illness lead to greater awareness of the moon camp issue and ultimately lead to it being saved and protected for eternity. You are a true hero!!!

I’m a retired bird keeper from the San Diego Zoo and I cared for most of the birds there for decades My favorite was the bald eagles for awhile and have watched Jackie and Shadow over the years and glad the world experiences how nature when in the wild is worth fighting for with not only bald eagles but all those who participate in conservation of habitats

Dearest sweet Jackie. I only found your live cam last year, but have been glued to it, watching you keeping your eggs warm, the babies hatching and how you and beloved, Shadow, care for them. The look on your and Shadow's faces when looking at your young babies is incredible. Last year when one of your juveniles had a sqweeing fit in the nest, you or Shadow remained calm, even looking closer to find the problem. It was amazing to see how you didn't get upset or fly away. The sqweeing was rather long and very loud. I have learned so much watching you, your family and your nest, that I would not have ever known if it wasn't for your live cam. I Love you, Jackie, and All of your babies and your main man, Shadow. I keep praying for your healing, recovery, and return to your nest area, as soon as able. God Bless you, keep you calm and improving every day, Jackie. I pray that I see you again back at your Big Bear habitat. All my love to you, Jackie💓💕💖💗💞 😍!!

Jackie, you have no idea how many people are praying for you and hoping you have a speedy recovery. You're famous! Not only because of the live stream, where we follow your daily life - but because you are an amazing, strong, resilient eagle that will keep up the good fight!
Shadow is waiting and watching. Luna & Sandy are doing fine thanks to you and Shadow and the amazing parenting skills. Those 2 are quite a pair. Always together! Such love that they learned from you & Shadow. Now, as they both start to venture out, be sure to know they will be just fine because of the strength and courage you have shown them. Shadow is a great dad, and partner - filling in while you get better.
Get better, please. There is so much more to do! You are bringing people from around the world together! We all love you. We all are praying for. May God hear our prayers

Who would have thought a human could fall in love with an eagle? Believe it or not, I think we would all agree that we did indeed! Jackie, you and your family have brought so much to our lives. You have made us take a moment each day to feel, to love, to learn, to unite. You have brought so much to our lives. Lots of joy and sometimes like now some tears. Please hurry home. We, like Shadow, miss you and call out for you every day. Rest and get well soon.

Gel well soon Jackie so you can rejoin your family. Shadow and babies are calling for you. How they have affected my life. They show how love, devotion and loyalty promote their legacy. That you sometimes have to put aside yourself and must sacrifice for the greater good. They show teamwork like for instance they both sit on the eggs, both get food for the young, both clean the nest. There are no slackers here everyone works to protect and raise their young. Family is everything.

Jackie, You should be called Jackie "The Girl Boss" Eagle. You have the heart of a fighter and I expect to see you up and flying on the wind soon. The kitty is Kiwi. Her head is resting on the towel because she was so weak from being left along side a road. You know what her middle name is? It's Spunky. Fighters need strong names. Kiwi is going to be ok because she is spunky and is doing much better now. You and your family are in my prayers. Love and peace fierce girl, Angela

Like so many others around the world, I was captivated by Jackie. Watching her faithfully protect her eggs through driving snow, fierce winds, and relentless storms was a powerful reminder of strength, resilience, and hope.
Now it’s Jackie who needs our support.
We’re all hoping and praying that this incredible eagle overcomes her illness with the same determination she’s shown time and again. She’s inspired millions by never giving up, and we’re believing she’ll do it once more.
Get well soon, Jackie. May your wings grow stronger every day, and may we all have the privilege of watching you soar above Big Bear once again. ❤️🦅 We love you!

Every day began for her with checking in-toward the end I learned to connect the tv to the internet so she could watch for hours… the joy you brought into her life will remain with me the rest of my life. Get well soon, looking forward to seeing you soaring the skies!
