Jackie and Shadow are a pair of mated bald eagles that live in California’s Big Bear Valley. A nonprofit environmental education organization called Friends of Big Bear Valley operates a bald eagle nest cam that allows people to watch Jackie and Shadow’s nest live from anywhere in the world. The nest cam is particularly interesting right now, because Jackie and Shadow’s two eaglets just hatched, and they’re adorable.

Friends of Big Bear Valley shares footage from the live nest cam on social media, including clips of the new brand-new babies. Yesterday, the Instagram account Nat’l Park Explorer shared a video clip from the live cam showing Jackie, Shadow, and their two newborn eaglets (one more egg has yet to hatch).
“This morning, they received their very first meal—fresh fish, brought in by Jackie,” wrote Nat’l Park Explorer in the post. “She delicately tore tiny bites for the chicks, who eagerly accepted their first taste of life outside the egg.”
