Kaydee keeps turning up in the places that matter most around Big Bear. šŸ¦…

Friends of Big Bear Valley says the recently named eagle has been spending time near Shadow, joining him in favored perch and roost trees, following him in flight, and making repeat visits to the nest.

Itā€™s an intriguing change in the valley, but nature hasnā€™t written the next chapter yet. FOBBV says Kaydeeā€™s s*x still isnā€™t confirmed, and itā€™s far too early to call this a new pair bond. For now, one thing is clear: Kaydee keeps coming back.

The USDA is dropping fish-scented rabies vaccines where wild raccoons can find them. šŸ¦

Its 2026 campaign uses small oral vaccine packets coated with fishmeal and distributed by airplanes, helicopters, vehicles and bait stations across parts of the eastern United States. When a raccoon bites through the bait, the vaccine reaches its mouth and helps its immune system prepare for rabies.

Wildlife Services has used this approach since 1995, creating a vaccination barrier designed to keep raccoon rabies from spreading farther.

They thought the cockatoo was dead after a brutal Queensland hailstorm. Then he suddenly jumped up. šŸ˜³

Farmer Damien Tessman found the battered bird on the ground near Coolabunia in October 2018, its feathers soaked and damaged after the supercell storm.

He nicknamed the cockatoo **Lazarus** after the surprise revival and wrapped him in a towel for the night before arranging veterinary care.

For a bird that looked finished, Lazarus still had some fight left.

She thought she bought a Tibetan mastiff puppy. Two years later, Little Black weighed about 440 poundsā€”and authorities identified him as an Asiatic black bear. šŸ»

The animal was moved with forestry police help to Yunnan Wildlife Rescue Centre, where a preliminary exam found no wounds and reported him in good health.

This happened in Yunnan, China, in 2018. It is an archival wildlife story, not a new rescue.

Kaydee has a name now. šŸ¦…

Friends of Big Bear Valley officially named the banded visitor KD1 Kaydee, even though no one yet knows whether the eagle will remain in Big Bear long term.

Kaydee has already been spending time around the nest territory with Shadow, but FOBBV has not confirmed a pair bond, permanent residency, or even Kaydeeā€™s s*x. For now, the name is official. The rest of the story is still unfolding.

Jackieā€™s story is already reaching far beyond Big Bear. ā¤ļø

After donating to Ojai Raptor Center, one member of the Big Bear eagle community received a letter describing the response to Jackie as extraordinary. The center said that support is helping strengthen its ability to care for future bald eagles and hundreds of other wild patients.

Itā€™s a powerful reminder that Jackieā€™s legacy can live on in the animals that come next.

Twenty endangered freshwater pearl mussels were airlifted from County Kerry to a specialist Mayo facility for conservation breeding. šŸš

The transfer took place on July 17, 2026, moving the mussels from the Owenmore River to the Marine Instituteā€™s Furnace facility in West Mayo. The aim is to establish a breeding programme for a species facing severe decline in Ireland.

Breeding success and any later reintroduction remain future goals, not completed outcomes.
