An amazing sculpture, but sad that so much plastic ends up in the sea.

a fabulous art piece with a harrowing message...the fashioning of an eagle celebrates the some Americans' ingenuity, and also the need for everyone to make amends for past folly..

What a great use for marine debris, although it would be better if there wasn't any. V.

A beautiful sculpture, drawing attention to or wastefulness. It seems eventually everything ends up in the sea.
