Gwaihil the Windlord...

During Gandalf's 'imprisonment' in Orthanc, he is saved by an eagle called Gwaihil the Windlord. The text runs something like this:- 'Gandalf! Forever doomed I am to carry you as a burden!'

This implies that he's carried Gandalf before. I was just wondering is this the same eagle that saved Gandalf, Thorin and Company from the incident with the Wargs in The Hobbit?
