Taking to the sky: Big Bear Valley eaglets Gizmo and Sunny take first flights
BIG BEAR VALLEY, California (ABC4) — Both eaglets from Big Bear Valley in California have officially taken to the skies!
In a Facebook post from Friends of Big Bear Valley (FOBBV), eaglets Sunny and Gizmo officially took their first flights, with Sunny officially leaving the nest on Monday, followed by her sister Gizmo early this morning.
Gizmo did have a little bit of trouble on her first flight, according to FOBBV. After attempting to take off, Gizmo quickly grabbed a branch for balance then successfully flew off a moments later, as he was seen on camera located in a different tree
Friends of Big Bear Valley says in their post that at the eaglets' flight feathers are still coming in and are a bit heavier than an adult eagle's feathers. The post says that both Sunny and Gizmo have a little way to go before they're a little more graceful like their parents Jackie and Shadow.
