From The Hobbit:
<blockquote>
Quote:<hr> 'For just a that moment the Lord of the Eagles swooped down from above, seized him (Gandalf) in his talons, and was gone.'<hr></blockquote>
So we can definetely say that it was the Lord of the Eagles -- presumably Gwaihir -- that bore Gandalf away from the flaming tree.
