Young eagle visits a beloved Big Bear nest. Could it be Gizmo?

POWER COUPLE Jackie and Shadow are shown with their hatchlings Sunny and Gizmo in April.

Thousands of adoring fans had watched them hatch on a 24-hour webcam that monitors the family and now they were growing up — fast.

But one of the internet-famous youngsters, Gizmo, may have just dropped by her childhood home, an unusual occurrence for an eagle of nearly six months.

‘A young eagle with several similarities to Gizmo hunkered down last Wednesday night on the couple's favorite roost tree and was still hanging around the following morning, according to Friends of Big Bear Valley, a nonprofit that operates the livestream.

The juvenile then flew off to Jackie and Shadow’s nest in a Jeffrey pine tree overlooking Big Bear Lake, where a camera offered a closer view of the raptor. As the youngster curiously mulled about, moving sticks around, some conspicuous features became clear.
