What was meant to be a hover turned into a FLEDGE! Gizmo the Big Bear juvenile eagle. 8:27 am Sat. [View all]

There were up to 80,000+ viewers watching this FOBBV live cam waiting for the eggs to be laid, the pip, the hatching, the first feedings, the first snow, the death of one chick, the ups and downs of this beautiful eagle family - lots of classrooms were tuned in.

I tuned in this morning the nest was empty!! - Gizmo has fledged to the Simba Tree.
