It will be a hatching seen around the world.

Live cameras pointed at a bald eagle nest in the mountains of Southern California are broadcasting views of the impending arrival of three eagle chicks.

Tens of thousands of people have been tuning in to watch the parents-to-be, a female eagle named Jackie and a male named Shadow, tend to three eggs that were laid in late January. The chicks could emerge anytime in the coming days, prompting a lively "hatch watch" online.

The nest is located about 145 feet high up, atop a Jeffrey Pine tree in the San Bernardino Mountains, according to Friends of Big Bear Valley, the nonprofit organization that owns and operates the nest cameras.
