LJ,

Most of those videos from the likes of KevinMC360 are birds filmed with infra red.

This is the YT Channel of the person that claimed to have filmed the video in post #1. He also acknowledges that some of his footage is simply birds. There are also a lot of hoaxers out there and the UFO programmes will pay a pretty penny for such footage. A bit of CGI or manipulation of a bird formation and you have a nice little earner.

See from 0:47 on the KevingMC360 video as featured in the Daily Mail link.


YT is full of 'UFO' hunters trying to pass off infra red footage of birds as 'squadrons of UFOs. KevinMC360 thinks that they are fighting battles!

As you can see birds also make interesting shapes even on radar!
