Ah, the thing marking Kim Schmitz' location. :lol: Makes sense.

 

They got that goof on a short leash somewhere else...LOL

 

But a UAV following him around would be pretty cool.

The true definition of a follower. :lol: Well, from the pictures I saw, he seems easy to spot from the sky. I mean, he calls himself dotwhatever. :ph34r:

Interesting Matt, I have a similar pic of a cigar shaped tube that was taken on Madeira in 2010. I'm not around at the moment but I'll post later...

That's cool. Post it because I do find these things interesting. Usually there is a pretty good explanation behind a lot of this stuff.

Well, you hope. :Alien:

 

But, more seriously, I like the guessing game. Looking forward to Howard's finding.

@Matthew was it breezy that day?

Pretty sure it is one of those space creatures as seen in the Star Trek TNG episode "Galaxy's Child"...

It was a very calm day that day. One of the better days I had seen for a while.

It kinda looks like a penguin to me.

But the idea that it's a UAV is much better.

I'd go back there with a zoom lens (and some hering) :)

We were supposed to go back there today, we will head back there in a few weeks. The New Zealand National Army Museum is only about a mile away from that spot where I took that picture so I will show it to them next time we are there. They probably know what was flying around the area at that date/time. And if they don't then I may except all these flying penguin/Kiwi/ET Theories that are floating around.... :lol:

 

That picture from Rob got me going silent. I hope Matthew is ok. Seems like time is running out. :Worried:

 

Still here...lol

 

New Zealand hasn't been eradicated (yet) :ph34r:

Hey Matt, I took this pic a couple of years ago in Madeira. No editing, just a little increase in contrast. I'ts certainly no plane...

Why is it that EVERY picture of a UFO is always out of focus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

Because if the picture was in focus you would be able to identify the object, and it would be an Identified Flying Object, rather than an Unidentified Flying Object. :wink:
