I love how everyone's suddenly an expert on UFO movement, saying it's "illogical" as if they actually know something.

Why the erractic paths? No intelligent being is going to pilot a craft all zig-zaggy whilst staying in the same area. As Spock would, "It is illogical." Unless of the course the craft is fueled by bugs, which are probably bountiful in the gleam of the klieg lights.

Edit to add: Again, this camera is stationary. At no point does the camera track one-single-bat. If you estimate the height of the objects in the OP to be the same as the example you provided, then, if at night, the stars would never be in the same frame as the bat.

Sigh, I didn't post that video to compare looks... I posted it to compare the flight path, size of the bats, and their average speed. All of these three things match the video.
The OP's video is clearly showing something organic, not mechanical. The movement of the object is similar to that of flying animals and insects...
Also, to claim bats always fly together is a lie. I live next to a park that has bats all the time, and they fly solo all the time. If I had a night vision camera I could probably take an identical video as the OP.

@ 1;25 seconds into the video the light stops and takes off again. That does not explain a bat or the massive amount of acceleration.

stops and starts for no reason? three possible explanations:
1. it is an alien craft, piloted by an alien, and he/she/it is either bored or following instructions to fly around for peepls to see.
2. it is an alien craft, piloted by a human; who's having fun and testing the machine's ability.
3. it is backwards engineered NASA/US Military craft, piloted by a human employed by the US government.
why over Niagara falls? because it's a cool place, one of the wonders of the world, and if you're gonna fly around, why not do it over a huge illuminated waterfall.

Sigh, your putting words in my mouth. I never said they always fly together, I said a few posts back they fly together during feeding, which is probably what they are doing in the video you posted.

Bats fly in mass together such as in this video and the others prior. Not in the OP.

The Erratic flight patterns don't resemble the one in the OP. At all, in my opinion. In the first few seconds of the clip I thought I was watching a satellite. Until the hovering and zig zagging maneuvers.

Speaking of zig zagging, what is your opinion on simply trying to following one of those critters with the camera. So far non of the examples have been able to do that. Keeping in mind, the stars are always in the frame. Impossible. Low altitude or not, simply impossible. Not bats and you know it

What is that supposed to mean? I may be confrontational with condescending skeptics but thats all. No love lost.

nope, they fly too straight for bats. They are eratic when turning, bats dont do straight lines or big arcs.

Bat's don't do straight lines or big arcs? That is a lie. You should check your facts.
