OK, first up the bird comparison shots. The birds were in direct sunlight and very close, less than 500 meters away. They do not glow in the IR spectrum at all; in fact they are very hard to capture as you are watching on an IR screen.
So, first two shots of birds in flight.
So we see birds in flight that reflect so little IR that they are hardly able to be seen on the screen. Any further away and they would just drop right off the cameras ability to pick them up.

I also took a picture of a 'some thing' in the sky that has made my eyes water with excitement. I couldn't believe it when I first saw it on the camera.

Okay, then to this image. I was just scanning the skies with the camera, and saw an arch of bright IR travelling across the sky with a darker 'body' to it. This object (and the second one on examination of the picture) was totaly invisible to the naked eye.

I couldn't help myself DK as your pics made me chuckle too!!
I spent most of my working life in the printing industry, this is a subject I know a lot about and your last pic looks to me like pigeons in flight, ATS has a lot of pics with birds at weird angles close to the photographer who never noticed the "UFO" until he developed the pics. Go and take a look you'd be suprised at how similar they look to yours!!

Im sorry but thats just untrue, this has been discussed and demonstrated, bird do not radiate IR like this.
The camera is a pure IR and at that range a bird should show up either a black dot or not show up at all if they are far away.
The objects questioned emit IR at a single point, which birds do not do. Unless the bird in question has rocket propulsion in its backend, im not sure how that can psosibly be a bird.
Birds dont radiate IR.
Debunk by all means, but look for a viable solution, not a solution which has not only beed criticised but also demonstrated by the OP.

Its funny how you edit out the nastier replies you make.
Back on topic, I actually thought you first pic to be interesting, its the last pic that I'm unsure of. From the persptive on the pic they (the ufos) are the right size in comparison to birds when compared to the street light. Pigeons tend to sleep on street lights for warmth.
