Flying object in front of Freedom Tower My wife took the attached photo of Freedom Tower on Jan 1 2014. She was on the New Jersey side of the Hudson River. She did not notice the strange object in front of the tower at the time. She took a second photo 2 seconds later and the object is not there. I have tried to make sense of the object but I cannot. It does not appear to be a bird. My wife thinks it's a drone, but where is the propulsion. If you zoom on it, there is a white glow or haze on the top of the object. The camera was an old Kodak digital mod C533. I did not set the time stamp when I put batteries in so it is not accurate. ((NUFORC Note: We suspect it's a bird, possibly a bald eagle, flying with fish in its talons. PD))

Flying object in front of Freedom Tower
