What the heck IS it??? Fairy? Bug? Spirit?

Hello, this photo was taken on July 3rd using a Samsung digital camera at between 7:45 and 8:00 pm (the sun had already set behind the mountains).

The location was my campsite on the Kern River in Kernville, CA. The weather was clear, hot and not windy. I was simply taking a picture of the river from my campsite. After I downloaded the pictures, I spotted the white thing either flying or hovering above the river.

I blew it up and you can clearly see it. I just don’t know what it is. I absolutely did nothing artificial to put this image on my picture. I’m nearly 60 yrs. old and wouldn’t know how to do it anyway.

Thank you.
