Everyone has been following the story of the bald eagle couple in Big Bear and now their two newborn chicks have names! Jackie and Shadow are joined by Sunny and Gizmo. Sunny was given to the bigger chick where Gizmo was given to the smaller one. The nonprofit, Friends of Big Bear Valley, has had live cameras in the eagle's nests since day one of the pregnancy. They said the contest received more than 54,000 name suggestions from the community and viewers. Names including Skye, Liberty, Bell, and more! It was narrowed down to 30 finalists and local elementary students were able to cast their vote for the new eaglets. Early March, three chicks hatched but unfortunately one died shortly after birth. The nonprofit said they named the third eaglet Misty after a former volunteer who lost her battle with cancer. Here is the link to watch the live nest cameras!
