It amazes me the stuff people try and pass off as photographic proof. Take a blurry photo - wrap it in a story and voila! It's the mothership from Zeta two Reticuli. Why are UFO photos always blurry?

Even without looking at the EXIF data - it's obviously a bird - most likely a seagull. The sharp contrails in the sky (background) and trees (partially in focus) tells me the focus is set on infinity. With that established we now can deduce the object is close to the camera - a little sharpening and playing with values and it is clear its just a bad photo of a bird flying by with some yahoo thinking he can get his 15 minutes of fame by saying "I heard this weird buzzing sound .. blah .. blah .. blah. Even Glen Campbell's hoax was more convincing.

If it flies like a duck, squawks like a duck and looks like a duck - chances are its not Aurora.
