Luna returned to Jackie and Shadow’s Big Bear nest for the first time since fledging, while Sandy’s strong flight from the rocks offered a reassuring sign that she is moving forward.
Sandy has been found near Luna after Big Bear’s dramatic fledge weekend, and Jackie and Shadow are already adapting to feed their young eagles in new places.
Luna’s first flight from the Big Bear nest was calm, confident, and unforgettable as the young eaglet flew from the high perch to Shadow.
Sandy’s first flight at Big Bear did not go as planned. After Luna’s porch bump, Sandy slipped below the nest, freed herself, and flew.
Luna reached the high perch at the Big Bear eagle nest, then made a bold dismount back to the nest. Now both eaglets are deep in the fledge window.
