Pterosaur?

Greetings all. Last night there was thread regarding some possible "Ropen" footage. Wasnt sure what too make of it, but I am not an expert to say it was bunk of any any sort, interesting enough though.........After seeing that one, I happened upon this one. This one was title "Pterosoar...". To be honest, if there is a big difference, I wouldn't know. I just thought this was pretty interesting as well and wanted to see what everyone thought. Could it be a Pterosoar? I dont know, but the first few seconds of the video is pretty convincing. enjoy!

Sorry about this, but as much as I like the idea that their might be Pterosaurs out there this I believe is a frigate bird.

YUP. I dont think I can really argue with that. An I wont, Because Jim Marlin I am not. I wonder if he ever saw Bigfoot?
Well, like I said before, the first two seconds of the video had me, then my doubts kinda started settin after. I had to post it to know for sure.
Sherpa. Thank you.

Your welcome I am just sorry it wasn't a longer thread for you.

Next time try to find something harder to identify, I like the cryptozoo posts.

Welcome to ATS by the way.

The Petraeussaur, that's another story. I heard it can swallow innocent civilians by the hundreds and doesn't blink and eye at killing his own kind. That's crazy, right?

crazy is that is onl goes after the INNOCENT ones!

Either way, I aint disappointed, some you lose, others - you just get smarter. I appreciate the "welcome aboard".
later days brother.

Thanks OP and thanks Sherpa!

I saw a bird about 12 years ago or so ... I never talk about it much because I swore it was a Pterodactyl ...

It had the shape, and was HUGE. I kept trying to convince myself it was either an albatross or california condor. I live about 70 miles from both the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico.

It is nice to know there was a bird with a wing shape better suited to what I saw. Some people tried to tell me I was hallucinating

Welcome to ATS.

Just a couple of things. If you read through the whole "Ropen Footage" thread you would have noticed that the video you just posted here was posted there - and it was stated right there that it was a "fake" (or rather a Frigate bird). Or if you used the
Search function you would have found a previous thread on the topic. It's always safer to search before you post a thread on an older video/news article.

Don't worry, I know you're a new member. Under normal circumstances it would have been 17 strikes with a wet stick.
