A ufo?

[DonSchaeffer]

I saw a tiny silver thread high in the air late yesterday afternoon. I shot it with 300 mm. This is what it looked like (cropped and original). (Of course I don't really know how high this was).

This airliner was nearby. I include it for comparison.

Must be swamp gas as UFO's do not exist...

 

[DonSchaeffer]

There is no swamp gas on Long Island. (lol)

Looks like someone was playing snake in the air...

 

[DonSchaeffer]

hee hee. Maybe

 

[NewBert]

Hmmm....Perhaps a drone? :smile:

Ultralight flying wing like a mitchell B10 or something similar. Seen them before, at Oshkosh.

That is really

cool, Don. Was it moving? If so, was it fast, slow?

I assume it appeared to be pretty high.

 

[DonSchaeffer]

It didn't seem to be moving very fast. But it was gone when I looked a few minutes later.
Thanks guys.

naw... thats a UFO for sure!

Someone suggested it was an escaped cylindrical mylar balloon. That makes good sense.
