It was a day of celebration (and maybe some tears of joy) for Big Bear fans, California, the Eagles when Sunny took the flight and left the family nest for the first time.
During the last months, animal lovers have fallen in love and fascinate with the couple of Eagle Calva and Women’s Women Jackie and Shadow’s trip. From the placement of their eggs to the hatching of three eagles, so far one of their descendants flying to explore their surroundings.
Three Eagles hatched in early March, with one dying in the middle of the month. People have been able to see the two surviving eagles, called Sunny and Gizmo, every day in the friends of Big Bear Valley (Fobbv) live broadcast 24 hours.
One of the Eagle, Sunny, had an important moment on Monday, when he stirred his wings and flew from the nest.
“At 10:46 am this morning, Sunny flew from the and upper branch in the world! She placed her wings to catch the wind and then jumped and let those beautiful wings take her,” Friends of Big Bear Valley wrote on her website and the Instagram page. “He surrounded himself towards Shadow and Jackie’s favorite stuffed tree … Gizmo saw everything from the right next to Sunny.”
The video shows Sunny making the great leap, with the angle of the camera changing and finding the percapted eaglet near the top of a hanger tree.
The organization pointed out that Sunny “can return to the nest … the previous eagles of Jackie and Shadow have done that. Everything depends on it at this time.”
At 2:45 pm PT, Jackie and Shadow were seen in the nest with Gizmo eating some food they caught.
At the time of publication, Sunny had not yet returned to the nest.
The news of Sunny’s first flight occurs days after Fobbv determined that the two eagles were women.
During the last days, Sunny had been venturing more in the branches of the tree where the nest is, sometimes floating just up. On Saturday, the cameras captured the brave Eaglet floating for about 2.5 seconds.
