Just my observation folks

The average size of Swifts range from 3.5 inches to 10 inches long. According to my calculations from the video... if the objects were in fact Swifts of these sizes then...
3.5 inches multiplied by 30 = 105 inches. 105 inches per second = 5.9 miles per hour.
10 inches multiplied by 30 = 300 inches. 300 inches per second = 17.04 miles per hour.
The object would then be traveling from 6 to 17 miles per hour. That is within range of the average speed of a Swift, so I would agree that it could be a Swift.
However, I believe these objects are a lot smaller than 10 inches, and are insects... But we can both agree that this is not a UFO and it something identifiable.

Its so obvious its a laser pointer or IR laser pointer. I created an account on ATS just to reply to this video because its just so blatantly obvious what it is. I cant believe this is getting flagged.
Heres a better video of what a IR laser can do. Notice how you can see it against the trees. Works the same on clouds. Trying to find a video of one on clouds.

Hey buddy, I live in middle TN. Nashville to be exact. Yeah, yesterday it seemed to me there really was a lot of contrails. They stayed around in the sky for a while. I guess it's due to the temperature in the air, but they turned a clear sky into a cloudy one for a little while.

Inects? Birds? Doubtful. Nothing on this thread has proven those theorys.

Again, this link will provide that information.
Here you will see the following:
Swifts are the most aerial of birds. Larger species, such as White-throated Needletail, are amongst the fastest fliers in the animal kingdom. Even the Common Swift cruises at 5 to 14 metres per second (18–50 km/h, 11–31 mph) and is capable of 60 metres per second (216 km/h, 134 mph) for short bursts.[citation needed] In a single year the common swift can cover at least 200,000 km.[1]
So yes they are capable of accelerating at almost 5 times their cruising speed for shorter bursts therefore not making for a constant speed during flight. Which is very possibly what we are seeing here.
