"A Smile And a Tear" (Reproduce on canvas as a gallery wrap)

It was the favourite place of her grandfather. Often together they would watch in the distance the golden eagles which fascinated the old man. The little girl adored her elder, she was impressed by his stories, his expressions, his values of life of a past generation and his love of eagles. "I would like to pass eternity on this mountain," he often said. 

His words became but remembrance on the day he passed away. His  souvenirs soon came back to life when several days in a row a young eagle flew above the girl's house. As she watched the bird she remembered her grandfather's words, "I would like to pass eternity on this mountain." 

Teamed with her grandmother, she managed to get her grandpa's ashes which she carried up to the site. After covering them up with stones and flowers, she saw the young eagle high above. "Cross your fingers when you make a wish," her old friend used to to tell her. Soon after she crossed her fingers, the young eagle landed close to her. Then she noticed her wish had come true, her grandfather was back as his favorite bird and it brought to her face "A Smile And a Tear"

What has she notice?

The grandfather in the picture is missing a finger,  she notice the golden eagle was also missing a finger.
