What in the world? Eerie scene over downtown Milwaukee captured on camera

Hmmm. From a local news source. Not sure what to make of this.

Found on the Facebag.

Fox

What was it? One theory involves seagulls. FOX6's Amy DuPont (see video below) was in the downtown area that hour -- and captured video of a big flock of seagulls flying around by the Milwaukee County Courthouse. But there are plenty of people who are questioning this theory -- because what's seen on the video just doesn't seem to act like birds flying around.

Ummm. seagulls.

No idea how that could make any sense whatsoever.

It looks like seagulls. But the flight patterns are pretty strange.

It's a Flock of Seagulls.



All joking aside, I think it's probably seagulls with some sort of ghosting.

I've never seen a seagull look like that before.

Also on YT for those wanting to avoid the high data site of Fox. Really strange vid.

Windows 10 (owned by liberal Microsoft) doesn't let me play FOX News videos. But I think you're probably referring to the birds in this recent UFO Milwaukee thread: www.abovetopsecret.com...

The second video in your link shows them to be seagulls in plain daylight.

Probably catching beams from spotlights or something.

It does look ghostly though. Must be really pretty to watch.

Seagulls like really....?

That doesn't look like seagulls to me.

That looks more like a school of fish than seagulls. Very odd.

No, no, no, it looks like tadpoles.

On a more serious note, I'd sure like to know what they are.

Seagulls that leave tracers , yeah only when Im tripping balls.

I fail to see how saying liberal Microsoft has anything to do with this. If you would like some expert tips on software/hardware management just shoot me a PM. On topic though I have never seen such a thing, the first thing that comes to mind is radio waves perhaps? I know that at high altitudes they can affect humans.

On my network, Fox vids work on Apple and Android, but not Microsoft Windows 10.

Back on Topic...

The lux sensitivity of that video camera is set really high. That's why the skyline appears so bright. I go to Milwaukee often, it's nowhere near that bright. At that sensitivity, anything flying over the city would look artificially bright.

But seaguls don't typically fly at night? The trails coming off them are weird could be camera related. Also seaguls don't fly in a pattern like that...

Dementors?

Seagulls with light trails? Can't say I've seen seagulls light up like that and I lived near the coast for 36 years of my life and the seagulls appear to have followed me to the countryside too, so I've not escaped them yet.

What I would find interesting is if any other videos showing this turn up or if eye witness testimony described things exactly as seen in the video. That when we could be sure that this isn't a flock of seagulls caught in a spotlight (or similar) causing them to appear this way on the tower cam.

I mean, really, how would these guys...



... pull off a stunt like that, especially with those dodgy barnets!

Could be seagulls:



Around the 50 second mark it shows them farther away in this video and they sort of look like the ones in the OP's video. No tracers though, but as people said, that could be a difference in camera quality... Pretty neat!

Thanks,

I concur, tripping hairy balls at that...

I did wonder if that had anything to do with it, you're probably right. They're not flying like seagulls though, but your explanation would work with any other predominantly white bird
