The eaglets, who were named in a public contest, are being closely monitored by viewers through live footage.

According to Sandy Steers, executive director of Friends of Big Bear Valley, the eaglets are actively developing, gaining balance, and investigating their surroundings. 

Currently, the eaglets are working on standing and eating on their own.

What they're saying:

"They’re developing outward expanding. Gaining their balance... investigating secure in themselves," Steers said.

She added, "Right now they are winter sizing flapping their wings stand up on their own feet. Stay standing. Working on being able to eat other own."

What's next:

The eaglets are expected to be able to fly once they are physically full-grown, which typically occurs between 10 and 14 weeks. 

As they continue to grow, viewers remain eager to witness their first flight.
