Big Bear Eagle Cam ~ STORMY IS BACK! Welcome Home 5.5.18

Stormy is back in the nest today! Dad flew in with a fish followed by Mom who claims it. But off in the distance we start to hear those familiar squees as they get closer and closer. At 2:46 Stormy lands on a branch to the left of the nest and then lands on the nest for the first time in 9 days when he accidentally fell from the nest on 4.26.18.WELCOME HOME STORMY!! Stormy is vocal as he gets fed from Mom and seems happy to be back home. He moves some sticks around and then goes to the center of the nest and lays down to rest. Ahhhh....that must feel good!! Stormy will be 12 weeks old in a couple of days and has really grown up since his fall. He had barely branched and now he has branched non stop for over a week and is flying around the area. We are all very excited to see him return and hope that he stays in the area for awhile. Thank you for watching!

[@luvflyball]

I'm still upset that I missed part of Stormy's childhood, but his flying, squee-ing, mantling, awesome return makes things much better.

[@evaandersen3450]

Stormy should just know how many humans who are rooting for him. He’s grown lots during his adventure and it’s nice to see him again. Thanks Lady Hawk for the smile and joy..❤️🦅❤️

[@mayrairizarry9831]

We're happy to see him back in his nest and healthy!👍 😘

[@annettemartin766]

Mom's look said it all and the woodpecker announced Stormys arrival. Edited to welcome back Stormy.

[@pr3661]

Her expression was so joyous and kind of kooky! I loved this morning's show!

[@Lw5212]

Ma was really saying Now I Have To Share : )

[@donwarriner9938]

YAY! What a happy reunion! Stormy knows this is his nest!

[@doeweiss1]

Don Warriner I think it took him a sec. Looked like he was thinking, "Wait, this view looks familiar..." 😊

[@loveofeagles003]

Woo HOOO welcome home STORMY so gald you came back 💞💞💞💕💕💞💞💞💕

[@rtchocolate]

Yep There’s no place like home! Sure glad to be back. And there’s more comfy grass🤗 And sticks too And what the heck is this pine cone doing in my bed!?! Probably dad had something to do with it Lol

[@Lunzie]

Hooray! Hallelujah!!! Thank you Lord! I’m so glad he/she is back safe! ❤️🦅❤️

[@sharonjohnson4636]

So happy to see Stormy back in the nest! Feel so relieved. now he can rest up a bit and feel secure with Mom and Dad.

[@dianecoats4746]

Wonderful moment. He looks great and relieved to be back in his own bed. One can only take so much of that survival camping. There's no place like home.

[@amycooler2259]

such great news...thank you LH!!!! He deserves a good meal and a nice long nap. ; ) Welcome home Gorgeous boy!!

[@kristenmfclark1966]

Well done, Stormy! I love how he tried to nestle in under Mom when he got back in the nest. Or maybe just diving for the food she had... :D

[@ЛюдмилаЗіменко]

I am very happy. The Stormy returned to the nest! He at home and Mom and Dad will give him his love and caring. It's a great day. Thank you, Lady Hawk💓😇👍

[@mrst7831]

I'm so relieved that he was able to come back to the nest on his own. A fresh fish for his efforts.

[@maryellenwilliams1334]

Welcome home, pretty boy! Now...get some much deserved rest.

[@PinkeeLee]

that little cheeky guy. he was hunkered down a lot and then started going out to the perch and flapping. just testing the waters, i guess. then a nice fish came in and man was that little eagle hungry. i think in general he is very happy to be home. thanks for this update, LH.

[@caroldickerson7414]

I am so excited, welcome home Stormy I missed you!!

[@sherioneill5456]

So happy Stormy is home on the nest. He looks great and seems to have grown so big. Thank you .

[@jackiebratcher2997]

Thank You God!!

[@diannenaworensky6698]

Welcome come Stormy ! Betcha sleep good tonight !😚 I think I heard him say that he was not ready to be a "big bird" and that he wanted to stay Mommy's little baby for a little longer ! Love how they were talking to each other right after he got back. He would squee and she would respond. Soooo cute ! Thanks Lady Hawk for your happy news update !😁

[@rbrtjernigan]

What a wonderful sight. I didn't think Stormy was going to survive.

[@cindydupont8201]

This is just great news, I've been watching and waiting for this silly eagle to follow his parents back to the nest and that's exactly what he did! Thanks for posting! :-)

[@theveganoptimist2723]

Yay! Great job Stormy! So happy to see you back home! 🏠

[@franceshenry2239]

Love it.....tears of joy..

[@silvrcolctr5954]

Thank heaven restored faith in nature

[@doeweiss1]

Awesome!!!! Sormy brought back 🎵that sunny day🎵 🌞 And so many interesting things in the video, like when Mom accidently stepped on him about 16:10. He sure let her know!! I think he was clearing out the nest bowl, not reinforcing the rails. Wanted a comfy space to lie down. That's why he even moved the pinecone! Thanks, Ladyhawk.

[@angelboop20121]

D W... You're probably right about that, clearing the nest bowl!

[@Summerbrezze]

Glad to see you Stormy. You're looking fine

[@Debisme08]

Aw wonderful!!! I had a good feeling that Stormy would get back to the nest! Reminded me of E9 last season! Welcome home Stormy!

[@brendaanne0810]

I bet it's good to FINALLY have that NEST UNDER THOSE TALONS!! 💞😁

[@teddygram45able]

So happy you are home safe and sound..stay put and be careful

[@negretelove2802]

Thank you for the update. It is amazing to watch the process and see how mother nature takes it's course. I love the fact that the humans kept a close eye but did not disturb or interrupt nature. The mom and dad are so dedicated it is beautiful family.

[@jhonaeyvette6529]

Congratulations!!🤗🤗🤗

[@nonik5161]

Hallelujah 😃 welcome back Stormy 🎉🎈🤩 We so MISSED you 😘! My heart is overjoyed to see you again 😘

[@cathleenbeveridge5834]

I have not been watching this nest. Could somebody tell me how long stormy was gone and how old is he?

[@nonik5161]

Cathleen Beveridge Stormy is 10 weeks old n he tumbled out of the nest a week ago

[@cathleenbeveridge5834]

Awe...thank you so much. So glad he's alright.😊

[@nonik5161]

Cathleen Beveridge Your welcome 😊

[@ladyhawk]

Hi Cathleen Beveridge - Stormy will be twelve weeks old on Monday! He hatched on 2.11.18 - he was gone almost 9 days from the time he slipped off the nest.

[@barbaramallick2097]

That is so awesome just the body language and the eyes when he looks face on the camera and looked exactly where the baby was coming from watched it every move coming up that tree and the minute that baby hit that Branch got out of the way so he can start eating thank you so much we love you lady Hawk❤🦅🦉🌵

[@kgadoci]

Thank God I been praying for the family. Thanks

[@proudcatmamaof3962]

Welcome home Stormy! It must feel great to be able to lay down & stretch out instead of standing up the whole time!! Be safe Stormy. PCM loves YOU!!! Thank you Lady Hawk for the update & beautiful video. Came home after a long day out & saw the spectacular return of Stormy!! This truly made my day complete. 💕😘💕

[@suzannekerr3074]

Well this is truly a great day..so glad to see you home again Stormy..a little rough landing but you made it, Just like the little engine who could--I think I can, I think I can...I KNOW I CAN!!! I'm so glad I will be able to wake up in the morning and not see an empty nest.. missed you so much, welcome home and just know how much you're loved. So proud of you and I'm sure your mom and dad are too!

[@ginajudd937]

Oh how cute. Stormy is a good name for her, she has a Stormy personality.

[@gsevolved]

Wonderful to see!

[@SW13333]

The bond and "eagle talk" between them - so obvious of the love and bond between these two. Just now seeing this video. Thanks Lady Hawk 👍 - Stephanie

[@DLionheart]

Hi LH and everyone! Like sooo many other human beings and along with his parents - 'been checkin' on this precious boy every day, multiple times over. I went over to the live cam just now, saw him in nest and got goosebumps!! My heart danced for joy! 'Found this video of yours and was thrilled to be able to see the WHOLE thing! Thank you so much LH! We love this boy! Man, he is making sounds that I've not yet heard an eagle make, lol. He HAS to be SO overwhelmed to be back home! Got more goosebumps as I listened to him and watched Mama feed him. 'LOVE his parents too = sooo obviously attentive and bonded to him = beautiful!!!! Mama's eyes as she heard him coming home were just incredible!!!! This makes my whole day!! WELCOME HOME STORMY!!! Proud of this boy!! But hey, he IS an EAGLE after all! Lol. =D♥

Thumbs Up👍💖 To Stormy!! Way To Go!!😁😃

[@aboltonskydivejunkie]

Wiw!! WELCOME HOME STORMY!! YOU HAVE MATURED BIG TIME since your accident fall. Seems like you didn't like how your home was when u arrived so you said well Mom I'm gonna rearrange all your sticks cuz they're all in MY WAY!! HE appears to have gotten a LOT STRONGER TOO after watching him /her moving some of the heavier stocks around nest!! And squeeking... MUST STILL BE HUNGRY. He got food while being out but not enough. MOMor DAD shoulda gone out for another fish!!!.I'm sure he is EXHAUSTED TOO. So GLAD TO SEE YOU MADE IT BACK TO YOUR SAFETY NEST. NOW MOM & DAD can watch over you better from the branches while you get rested up!!!

[@DeeDee-gr6qh]

Yay!!!! Welcome back stormy !!! 😘😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@cathycastro7909]

Made my day! Welcome home Stormy! 💜❤👍

[@dawnkeyser4802]

Boy, was this eaglet correctly named!! So concerned that a predator was going to attack him; we, the followers, were very fortunate. These parents went the extra mile to ensure his survival. Stormy will remain a legend, I believe! LadyHawk, you should be named LadyEagle:) Thank You so much!!

[@ladyhawk]

Hi Dawn - they really kept their eagle eye on him! Great parents!! lol on being named Lady Eagle! I like that one too!!

[@sheriortega5619]

Yay!! So awesome!!!!🙌🙌

[@meadow8888]

This is fantastic news, and just thrilled that Stormy made it back home. Brings tears to my eyes.... So Happy for this family, and pray all goes well from now on, xoxo!!

[@lorenhorn6638]

Hallelujah!!!!!

[@BobRimac]

Best news of the day! Thanks for sharing!

[@alisha-rhymer682]

This made my day and I had to watch a second time since I was crying thr 1st time. He finally made it... Can't wait to see him with his on family and babies.😘💟🙏

[@samsen201]

WHAT AN EAGLE DAY! Went through all the comments and totally not surprised by how many hearts have been touched by this majestic young bird & family. Firmly believe that this was the climax of that gradual, yet intense crescendo, since 06:23:15 on 04/24/2018, that we were all waiting for, in unfolding of this sweet life story. I know, I've found my soundtrack music, as played here, to be added only next to Art J Harriman's music & Mel Blanc's, whenever I drive up to Big Bear. Its time to bring out our inner eagles and Go young eagle, Go.

[@TomSawyerEaglePro]

Stormy you made it and big time congratulations from all of us who knew you could do it, eventually lol. Must've felt great to lay in and get fed in the nest after 9 days. He laid his head down at one point while laying in the nest, so sweet. Good job making it to an official Juvie!😄. Thanks Lady Hawk!❤

[@nadinecrupi5481]

OMG..so awesome to watch..I got a tingle! Took the little brat long enough! HA! Glad he's home safe! That was some adventure for him...DON't DO IT AGAIN! HAA!

[@hoaluong3592]

He must be starving!!! Poor thing.

[@cathycastro7909]

He probably reorganized those branches so he can't fall out the nest, again!

[@squrleyboy460]

Something I just thought of.. Im so glad he is back in the nest, safe and tired, but soon he will be on his own...

[@mukie492]

Stormy is back yay

[@kathypfeifer6520]

[@catherinebreitfeller669]

So awesome !!! Didn’t think he would come back. Stinker !!🦅🦅

[@joelweidenfeld471]

Everything is so much smaller than I remembered

[@ЛюбаШирокова-о1и]

Здравствуйте уважаемый администратор! А что этот птенец уже летать научился? Это он свалился из гнезда и уже в гнездо прилетел? Вот здорово, что всё наладилось и он опять в гнезде с родителями.

[@hernameta]

Да, он случайно упал и 9 дней жил на ветке внизу, постепенно перелетая с ветки на ветку. Сегодня сумел подняться в гнездо:))

[@ЛюбаШирокова-о1и]

Какой молодец!

[@kathygranda2606]

And get that pine cone out of here. I need a long nap

[@reas6140]

kathy granda haha. He's a character. 🤣

[@nonik5161]

lol 😂

[@l.j.9671]

I was thinking the same thing! But after awhile it kinda seemed like he was playing with it like it"s a toy for him, lol...

[@isabellerudolf4463]

Stormy said "I am away for a few days and this nest is a mess" Good to see you back Stormy ! Hope you'll stay a while. Thank you Lady Hawk !

[@19Photographer76]

Does his head look a little underdeveloped? I guess it could be lens distortion but...? Great to see a happy resolution.

[@ladyhawk]

Hi David - I think that is just distortion. Head looks fine to me. He has grown in feathers more since he left giving him a longer fuller look!

[@auroracastro4487]

Happy cinco de mayo - welcome back stormy
