"The eaglets will be called Luna and Sandy, which is a nod to Sandy Steers, the former executive director of Friends of Big Bear Valley who helped chronicle the lives of the bald eagles."
"Sandy was the most popular name entered with 3,706 of the 63,915 names submitted, the nonprofit said."
"Please know that although Sandy would not have wanted us to outright name one of the eaglets Sandy, she would have been honored that you and the students went through the process and named one of the 2026 eaglets after her."
"The eaglets hatched over Easter weekend."
The eaglets of the Big Bear bald eagle couple Jackie and Shadow have been named Luna and Sandy.

Local students participated in the naming process, with Sandy being the most popular choice, receiving 3,706 votes out of 63,915 submitted names. The eaglets hatched over Easter weekend, marking a significant event for the community.
