I found this pic and couldn't find it anywhere on ATS. It looks like it could be a bird but maybe not. What do you guys think??

Well, I see mountains in the background. So, I'm thinking it's some kind of Sky surfer or something similar in origin.

Looks like a bird to me too. Interesting effect though, the way the light shines through the wings and such.

It looks like a parachuter... His arms stretched out and you can see the chute on his back. But if not that then definately a bird.

Never really thought about it being a parachuter. But I guess it could be anything at this point.

Looks like the underbelly of a space shuttle flying away from the viewer. It's too perfect on each side to be a bird. I just had my eyes checked
and they are fine.

BTW I meant "looks like". I downloaded the original (freely available) and cropped this out. I dunno, I don't see a bird. I see wings
though.

It took a while to find a suitable picture of a bird from the underneath with the light shining through its wings, AND I am not suggesting it is a
fairy tern, the shape is wrong, but notice the similarities in how the body and the portions of the wings that have muscle on them are darker than the
more see through portions of the wing that are feathers only.

This is a hard call especially since the photographer was not actually aiming at the object.
I would say no to bird and parachuter or other slow moving objects solely on the fact that the photographer could have easily shot again.
But looking at it as a bird.....it could be one, though the wing symmetry is insane! It doesnt fit the common disc\orb\triangle which most Alien
species tend to use and be photographed using. Maybe someone flying a remote controlled jet?

If you examine this photograph there are two other airborne objects, that more resemble birds I am apt to say that some sort of anomoly with how the
picture was taken has either obscured or changed the actual object in the foreground, look at the other two they are clearly birds, who knows
though.

If it is a UFO, one thing I can promise you is that the Army would know about it. Wahiawa is the site of a large Army base, and it is situated very
near an incredibly protected valley full of old munitions, bunkers full of nerve gas, etc.
This photo wasnt taken in a remote part of Hawaii where something odd in the sky would escape notice. It is taken on the most populated island in a
valley that is heavily militarized.

I see what you're saying about the bird but then again I can make that shape make sense as a bird yet. I flipped the thing around in my image viewer
and couldn't see a bird there either. It kind of reminds me of that turkey UFO video, one of which I posted as an early thread of mine. www.abovetopsecret.com...
Today I think all ufos are made here on Earth.

There appear to be other flying objects in the photo, which are probably birds, that also give off the same kind of light profile, if not exactly the
same shape. If it was all by itself, and there were no other birds around, it would be a lot less easy to see that it was probably a bird.
That being said, it could be an alien spacecraft flying around the sky with a bunch of birds. What's more reasonable?

Turkey UFO?
Everybody knows turkeys can't fly. Or can they?
Turkeys Away!
Not OT. He started it.

Easy one. That's a flying beetle. Wide abdomen. Small head. Wing covers splayed to the side. Translucent wings. Beetle.

Looks biological at any rate.
Certainly not a skydiver. If that were a skydiver that low with his chute not open, and his arms spread wide, he was a dead skydiver a few seconds
later.

It looks like some kind of UAV or model airplane. It is way too small to be a UFO. It is could be extra terrestrial at most it is a prob of some sort
but it looks like a small plane to me.

To my eyes, it seems to be close to the camera.
I'm no expert, but I'd say it would be pretty small, like only a few inches across.
Beetle it is.
