Surely everyone is familiar with perspective.
Looks to me like if the image is real, the bird is a lot smaller and a lot closer to the camera than people are assuming.
I agree with Djarums, it looks like a pigeon that is closer to the photographer than the
blast and it's behaving like any small creature when startled by noise.
I'm tired of this UFO/Strange Faces/Secret explosives inuendo surrounding the Trade Tower tragedy. I can give you a more 'scary' scenario...
A group of people from a faraway land decided to convince it's younger generation that another country, that was lush with wealth, were evil and
worshipped false gods.
These youngsters trained and disciplined themselves to infiltrate and merge into the country that allowed it's people to speak their opinions and to
install or remove their goverments at the people's will.
They hated this evil race and sneered at their decadent ways. But instead of using the evil country's tactics of convincing through debate, they
hijacked four aeroplanes and flew three of them into buildings, hoping that it would show that the youngsters and their peers ways were the true
way.
Many died and it created confusion and hatred from both countries... which is where we are now.
No flying saucers from Reticuli, no devil with humanoid faces and no prehistoric birds or mothmen.
Happy new year.
