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.
A late fish delivery at the Decorah Eagles nest area gave DH3 a bold mantle moment while DH4 worked the nestovers nearby.
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.
