Come back with my lens!

My Sigma 150-600 I shoot birds with.  I guess this fellow took exception to being photographed.
Best seen in the large view.  Thanks for looking.

No worries Sandy, just my attempt to show my gear based on Mark's "Artistic photos of your photo gear!"  and the joys of Photoshop.

Ah, so photoshopped in? Certainly ok with the theme. Sure glad the lens wasn't really lost.
I actually did have a friend lose a lens to a curious osprey who thought it might look nice as a nest decoration - they put all kinds of junk in their nests, some dangerous  for chicks.

Hi Allen, what a great for grins view.  I am thinking that this is a composite, but maybe you had a special lens that wiggled in the water...  Very creative!  I see that my suspicion is confirmed in the comments.

I suppose you could put out Nikon and Canon glass and let the ospreys decide which one they prefer solving the age-old dilemma for wildlife photographers once and for all.

This is a very cool composite for this weeks theme, Allen.  Very nicely done!

Great work that initially fooled me - congrats on a good laugh and a fine WP!
