Cool video, doesnt look like birds to me though. It seems to be flying too fast to be birds unless they been doing P90X, and im judging how fast they fly past the stars in the back ground,

In this one they are moving way too fast to be birds.
So please explain how you work that out
Why don't you watch the video? The answer to your question is in it. The guy has been doing this kind of filming for over a decade he understands what he is filming and he says they were going so fast he could hardly keep up with the camera. Now if you choose not to believe him then good for you personally I do.
Yes I know what birds look like when filmed in Infra Red I've watched many of these videos. In this one they are moving way too fast to be birds.

Have you never heard about perspective? The closer something is to you the faster it moves in relation to whats behind it in the distance?

I seriously think a large proportion of our membership must walk around with their eyes closed because they fail to see or recognise the most basic things that happen in the world around them!!!

That's because you're not very good at thinking. I suppose the ones on the MagnetFlipper video are birds too lol.
Also how can you say you have a better perspective on this than the guy (with over a decade experience at IR filming) who actually filmed it? Seriously give it a rest.

I've been on these boards for a couple of years and have observed wmd_2008's observations on a fair number of photographic issues, and as an amateur photographer I've not only listened to what wmd_2008 has to say, I've followed up, and/or experimented myself with using his observations within the context of my own photography, and he's usually spot-on. As for MagneticFlipper, I can't say with certainty that all his UFOs are birds as I don't want to waste 14 minutes, but of the few sightings I scrolled through, I would get at least half of them to be birds, possibly more. Regardless, he has images of tiny specks of light against the sky - proof of very little.
In contrast, I've observed you recently posting a number of 'so-called' UFO videos, and nearly all of them can be explained in quite mundane ways - for instance, balloons, possible insects/satellites/balloons, and here in this thread, largely birds. There are quite a few members who have been around long enough, and/or, possess the knowledge to adequately explain what is being seen yet you are quick to discard what they have to say.
Why do you reject the expertise of certain ATS members, but are so quick to accept the ramblings of many 'armchair YouTube video analysts'?

This is a UFO forum right? Hence why I post videos which I find interesting here funny that eh? I don't reject all the opinions on here at all just the ones who are not really interested in the footage, they are just trying to be clever, and also the ones full of invective. Anyway why would a member here be anymore qualified to comment on a UFO video than anyone else? I've been involved in this subject in one way or another for nearly 40 years I've seen more UFO videos than most I would imagine does that qualify me anymore than anyone else to comment on these videos? By your reasoning yes it does but just like in this thread I usually end up defending why I posted the footage! This is so obviously not birds and some of the comments are utterly pathetic. I mean seriously look at some of the comments on this thread mind blowingly stupid.

I do see high altitude, fast moving things like that from time to time. I record some pretty high quality video of it, too. Too high, too fast to be birds. Some manoeuvers, defy what we're used to as far as how airplanes move.
There are a few indicators to me, that they are earthly. The pattern in which they appear around here, seems to work by our clock. I would think visitors would use a more organic timetable (ie. lunar calendar on a nanoscale), rather than patrol at UTC.
I'll post the best shots, after the next holiday weekend. The best sightings happen during fireworks. I believe fireworks are used as camouflage. Too bad they didn't account for us lenses, up tall buildings.
