I recorded this with my Canon R6m2 and Sigma 24mm F1.4 while capturing video of the Perseid meteor shower. This is 24fps video using 1/8s exposures. These are much longer exposures than you would normally use for video. It causes it to look more like a slide show than a video and faster moving objects like the birds appear as streaks rather than the orb like shape that the eye sees.

F1.4
ISO 25600
FOV 74×53 degrees
44 arc seconds per pixel.
This is a relatively common sight, a group of large birds, likely geese flying over silently. It looks pretty freaky seeing it the first time, especially if the birds don’t make any bird noises.

You post this on the UFO board and they are going to go nuts justifying this as UAPs.
Other than that, great recording and thanks for the specs. Been meaning to capture the ducks when they migrate in winter. There are always groups of them flying at night. May be geese, though. Can’t really tell! 😉
