Yes, more rope.

More blue rope! I'm with the eaglets!

You made it?

I'm really there!

A little more line.

There are two eagles

nesting side by side.

- Should I send down the blanket?

- Yep!

You got it?

Bring it over this way.

- Which way?

- This way.

Let it go a little bit more.

That's it.

Try to cover the female.

- Say again?

- Pull it.

What? The blue rope?

Yeah.

Here you go.

Hurry up! The mother is coming.

Please, please, more blue rope.

Please release more rope!

- Hurry!

- Don't pull.

She fell down.

She keeps falling away from me.

Keep at it!

Give me some slack on this other rope.

Let it out more!

Is that enough?

Hurry up! The mother is coming.

Shoo! Go away!

Caught it!

My child, is it ready to go?

Wait a sec, let me tie this off.

All right, ready.

Should I reel it in now?

We did it!

Now, let's see what we've got here.

Oh, God. Oh, God, look at this!

You did really well.

Was it difficult to get to the nest?

You've found yourself

a really great specimen!

All being well...

we can start to train

your baby eagle this autumn.

This eaglet is a sign of good luck!

She will bring good fortune

to our home.

Pop it there.

By God, a little female eaglet!

So you took it all by yourself?

Yup, I went and got it.

It was tough.

I've never seen a nest

that was so hard to reach!

- Was it tough? Are you tired?

- Nope, I'm fine.

As for me, I got all sweaty.

I'm exhausted!

I started slipping on the rocks...

but I grabbed the rope

and hauled myself back up.

You proved yourself today.

You were as brave as any man.

You really showed that nest

who's boss!

Thanks.

I already love this eagle.

I'm going to raise her and we are

going to the eagle festival together!

Since the Altai Mountains are high...

it takes a strong bird to nest there.

It's a very beautiful bird indeed.

So it matches Aisholpan.

She is a very brave

and courageous girl.

Weather forecast.

Weather will be cloudy,

without precipitation.

Wind speed will be from 3 to 8

metres per second.

Air temperature will be

8 to 13 degrees Celsius.

Dear radio listeners...

from October 2nd to October 3rd...

the annual eagle festival

is to take place.

Father?

Let me compete

in the festival this year!

Oh, my Child, it's difficult.

Please?

Don't worry!

Does the eagle's neck revolve?

Its neck revolves all the way around.

Were you afraid

when you first touched the eagle?

Nope.

We would freak out like crazy!

- And you fly it from your hand?

- Yes.

- And it returns?

- Yes.

Do you call, "Hey, eagle,

come back here, please?"

What do you shout

when you call the eagle?

Huukaa! Huukaa!

Is it afraid of other people?
