That was certainly one of the most precious things I've ever seen.

[@gracechen7637]

What a wonderful rescue! Some ppl say renesting would do harm to the eaglets and the parents would abandon the nest - this is one of the many examples that proved it wrong. Thinking of Meadow 😢

[@jenstacey7743]

This little guy/girl did so good and was so brave! Thank you everyone who helped in the rescue, renesting and taking care of things so quickly!

[@awagirl99]

Thank you to everybody that made this rescue possible. Dr Sharpe, Navy and Nicole and IWS

[@kathyburgreen]

Agree 👍

[@loretta7683]

She’s chatting at the woman the entire time saying mom and dad bring sticks not you.😂😂

[@jimmykern7649]

Thats how you do it !! Wish more nest's had this kind of response !! Great work !!😊

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

Yes! This & the rescue at Kisatchie National Forest earlier in the season were impeccably handled.

[@cldixon5857]

Thank YOU W of W ❤The Little rescued eaglet was fed by dad , shared beakies with nest mate . She ( he ) is now using dad’s tail feathers as an awning & getting some much needed rest . I’m thrilled and thankful to all who made this happen

[@kathyburgreen]

This nest, Bald Canyon Eagle nest is on San Clemente Island in the Channel Islands California. It is owned by the Navy. They allowed Institute of Wildlife Study to put up a camera. No microphone allowed so there is a taped loop of sounds provided by IWS. Dr. Peter Sharpe returned from retirement to once again head the IWS. Dr. Sharpe is a legend. Help in the Return of the eagles in the Channel Islands restoration. He has performed many rescues on the nests of the Islands. One at BC last year when they had three eaglets. I have watched him rescue one eaglet on Two Harbors Catalina and one at WestEnd Catalina. Side note WestEnd has three eaglets, again, this year❤

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

Dr. Sharpe = Eagles' best friend.

[@DigitalPixel_AnimalLover]

There’s a special place in Heaven for people who rescue eaglets!

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

Absolutely!

[@dalegoulden2919]

Thank you for requesting. I was hoping you would give them a snack.❤

[@fidelaromo6705]

That would be impossible 😂

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

Dad came in swiftly with a fish, so our little fallen eaglet was rewarded well after his/her adventure. :)

Thank you to everyone involved in this wonderful rescue.

[@judithc59]

"What are you doing to my sibling, get out or else? we can take you all"🤣🤣. Thank you for the rescue.

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

So cute when they try to get all intimidating looking at such a young age, right? 🤣

[@josephtrotter]

💕

[@TheEmaile]

What a fiesty baby! Wish we could hear what it was saying. Love that they reinforced the nest. And how both babies zonked out as soon as she was out of sight. Best video yet. Kudos to those rescuer heroes and their straight ladder!!

[@debbietate3414]

Right doing alot of talking

[@Niteowlette]

I was thinking the same. Feisty eaglet! Feisty is good! The adrenaline was flowing for sure. All's well that ends well. ❤

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

An absolutely fantastic thing to witness, for sure!

[@user-cc1gq8bw3f]

I'm in love with the background music the birds are singing and it echoes in the corner of the forest, very soothing and calming music ❤🦅🤗

[@smgenett3870]

OMG that lil eaglet looked sooo happy for the rescue....nice job & hearty rails too = thx Whimsy!!!!

[@loretta7683]

That’s great❤ That nest needed fixing to many holes in the branching.

[@dawnpowers6233]

Tysvm for the wonderful update and everyone involved to rescue and return this baby home safely and to add better rails to the nest ❤🤗

[@loridonohue313]

This is the best news! So grateful to all involved. Maybe after these eaglets have fledged and leave, thid nest can be reinforced better.

[@Fanziazz]

[@simplycurlyde]

Wonderful. S/he looked good. Thank you WoW!

[@mollyk2883]

OMG thank u so much god blessing all of u ❤👏💪🙏

[@MoeRussell-ss5gs]

Thank you to all rescuers concerned. The eaglet didn't seem to appreciate being rescued though. Looked like he wanted to take chicks out of her

[@ringdoorbell3223]

Sharon Shneyer, Thank you for this uplifting video. Since I don't watch this Cam regularly, Wings, am I assuming correctly that there are 2 eaglets at this nest? PS. I have seen renesting before.(Okay, I saw the 2nd one in the back)

[@aprilinamsterdam]

Wow! Awesome! What a great rescuer! Climbs trees, performs a medical evaluation and nest building. So talented! QUESTION: Why don't the adult eagles attack? You don't even hear them complaining.

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

The parents just about always stay nearby, watching, during rescue/banding missions. They have just enough healthy fear of humans to take off, but they tend to keep a close eye. I have no doubt that some would/could/have choose to attack though, which is one of the reasons why these missions are risky.

[@SilkeMachler]

👏👏👏🫶❤️🐥😊Thank you

[@itsmegoomy2364]

Oh this really warmed my heart. I absolutely love this. That rescued eaglet is quite feisty! I did have a question, why do the eaglets put their heads down like that after the humans left?

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

I have no idea! Perhaps a silent relief moment?

[@DigitalPixel_AnimalLover]

Since this is a repeat event, and it’s for our national bird, I think the military should pre-vet a specific team to be allowed in to rescue fallen eaglets - it’s an idea worth consideration, to make these babies wait a lot less time when medical help may be needed.

[@waynecharles1359]

Have you seen mom or dad yet

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

Yep - parent already returned to the nest & little champ is resting. Last I checked, it hadn't eaten yet - but if not eating already, I'm sure food will be brought in very soon.

[@fidelaromo6705]

Amazing eagle parents, 👏 😍 for sure 😊

[@ImCatWmn2]

Excellent!

[@SMB64LOVE]

Thank you so much for saving the Eaglets life & reinforcing the nest 🪹!

[@tracybranson1699]

Thanks for posting. That was amazing. Do you know when it fell out of the nest? What was the cause? and how long it was on the ground?

[@WingsOfWhimsy]

Details are sketchy. The cams at this location basically go down at night & come up after they've had to time to power up from solar charge. When they came up the morning before the rescue, the eaglet was in that position & spot, so what took place wasn't actually witnessed. Most likely a simple misstep or something similar. S/he never did hit the ground - It remained in a sort of "pit" of branches just alongside the nest for probably a bit over 24 hours total.

[@tracybranson1699]

@@WingsOfWhimsy thank you!
