Are you thinking of the fell beast?

Can't Post

Because the Nazgul were the Black Numenoreans. And it's not Thorondor who rescues Bilbo & Co. and later Gandalf from the top of Orthanc, it's Gwaihir who is a descendent of Thorondor. So I have to agree with the previous poster that the eagles aren't Maiar.
No the eagles are I'm fact Maiar, and thorin for is around during the LotR and the hobbit. He is present when helping Volvo and the dwarves and saving gandalf on orthanc and saving frodo and Sam. The eagles are Maiar and are not mortal just as gandalf isn't. I would assume they could go to aman with any ships. So did not need to leave middle earth on the last ship and could've stated longer. The trolls were made in mockery of the ents, are dragons the mockery of eagles? Or are the nazgul mockeries?

A herald in battle would be a worthy leader and formidable fighter themselves
