Sister eaglets Sunny and Gizmo were recently trained for their big send-off after hatching in their parents' nest in March in Big Bear Valley, according to Friends of Big Bear Valley. This nonprofit organization runs a 24-hour live feed monitoring the famous family.

The sisters are 12 weeks old, and the timing of this first flight is on track. Typically, it happens between 10 to 14 weeks. Their parents - Jackie and Shadow - captivated the internet and wildlife enthusiasts earlier this year as viewers waited for the chicks to hatch.
