DOH! Thanks.

Maybe he thought it was an egg?
anyway, how did the guy get the camera back?

In the YouTube description he says he had to climb up there to get it. It seems a reasonable speculation that he was able to either visually track the bird or at least make directionally correct guesses to a few likely destinations.

My bet is it's not viral, although we can never be sure.
