So much for my “eye” …Just a fish, not a cell phone as I envisioned because of the defect right where a charging port would be.

The following narrative is absolutely wrong. No cell phone was lost and found .But the illusion was fun while it lasted.

 

As my husband packed up the car after a long day of photographing Bald eagles at Conowingo Dam, Maryland, I took a few last pictures in very low light expecting to delete them later. This eagle was perched high above examining something in its talons. I can picture some poor soul leaning out over the railing to capture a picture, perhaps of the sunrise that morning, only to have their phone slip from their hand and splash into the Susquehanna. How and why the eagle nabbed it is a bit of a mystery since most phones sink. Perhaps it was in a shallow spot and the eagle noticed it reflecting light. Whether the eagle was taking a selfie or texting, I cannot tell, but it certainly seemed to be concentrating on its unusual find! :)
