I noticed a member in my ward has an unusual photo of their family. They have the photo below posted as their family photo that shows in the ward directory.
I don't know this family, but they are at church every week and have given talks so they seem to be active and believing. Does anyone know if there is a special meaning to the bird on the Moroni statue? Or maybe just their family being goofy (they don't come off that way, but who knows)?
Meaning of bird on Moroni picture?

Isn’t that Moksha’s cousin?
I vote goofy picture because they don’t want an actual family pic on the church tools.

Well, I just let my visiting whatever have my phone number, but told her I don’t want it in the ward directory. So, I vote they don’t want a family picture up, and thought that was cute.

It's not a bald eagle, but maybe it's a conservative-ish political-ish statement?

Is it a Red Tailed Hawk?
Maybe MORONi is a University of Utah fan?

Is that spike going into Moroni's head normal? Or is it just a lightning rod that is normally there, but edited out of every other picture of golden boy Moroni posted by the Mormon church?
"I don't need the Mormon church to be true, I just need it to not be verifiably false." - something I read somewhere...(help me give proper citation credit if you know where this came from)

I don't know, but I'm really hoping that on the next temple they'll include an animatronic Moroni who lifts his trumpet every hour on the hour to blast the time.
