Any ideas what this aircraft is?

So one of the daily tabloid rags here in the UK seems to like printing "UFO" stories no doubt as clickbait. One of their stories today is of a "UFO" above Ground Zero with an image of an aircraft of some kind. I seem to recollect the silhouette from somewhere but can't recall what it was. Anyone have any ideas?

OK thnx, was going by what the tail looked like. I've definitely seen an aircraft with a tail that was angled like that before.

It might not be a pigeon, but they're the most common birds in NYC, so I'm going with them. Either way, it's just a bird in mid flap.

Looks like someone photoshopped the wings off a bird.

Scroll down to that GIF.

It is shaped for Earth's atmosphere, probably people on Earth created it then, come back when you find the Borg cube or some other shape that doesn't require adherence to physics

Hmmmm, pretty low tech.

HA!! That's a GREAT one!!

LOLOL!! Pretty funny!!

You could have at least embellished it a little bit though. Something along the lines of....

Oh NO!!!, now you've done it!! YOU have exposed the latest, TOP secret, stealth technology developed by the joint CIA-NSA-DARPA program code named AVIAN TEAL. This is the most secret and protected program in the history of mankind. The black project is known as B-1RD amongst test pilots at the Groom Lake (commonly known as AREA 51). The men in dark suits will be arriving at your house in a blacked out Suburban shortly to ask you a few questions...before drugging your Sierra Mist and making you disappear (forever).

Yeah, it caught me about 10 minutes after waking up, and well before my first infusion of caffeine.

How about this one
Switch Blade/Minotaur or other swing-wing style aircraft?

Although in this case, the upper portion of the photo closeup looks
like a normal seagull or pigeon wing so I'm gonna say bird for now.

I say an RC Bird of Prey.
