I live in a rural area and am seldom during the day and no one should be around the house when I'm gone, but this is the 2nd time I've found the object in the picture, both times at an outside hydrant next to the well. I found one this time last year and the other one tonight. The lens is glass and there is a part # of 05138701. I'm guessing the assessor is there taking pictures or maybe fell off my polaris ranger or some other equipment. Any ideas?

Dunno', have you seen any drones flying around? Do you have a water meter in the area?

That looks similar in shape to the water meter lens that we would use in constriction when connecting to a fire hydrant.

Sometimes there is no other water available other than a fire hydrant. We would have to notify the FD and the City / County before hand and the meter was used to keep track of the water that we used.

Id the hydrant near your well and actual fire hydrant?

funny you mention Polaris..when I googled that part number it comes up as Polaris...but it says cv joint....https://www.ebay.com/p/CV-Axle-Shaft...00/28015758372
if it is Polaris I bet your dealer will know

No water meter, private well, not a hydrant, looked all over the polaris and didn't see anything missing. I'm stumped on this, I suspect the county is up to something when I'm not home.

Game cam

We actually have a game cam we use around the yard, I'll check it out. Good call! Thanks!

Our game cam is a Moultrie "A" Series game cam, the lens is a lot smaller and completely different.

It probably fell off of a 737 Max.

I think this guy nailed it, guessing the county needed water for a project and stopped at the house.
