I pulled out the old telescope the other day when I noticed Jupiter so bright in the sky...it was a perfect night..even though I'm here in Christchurch the stars still look amazing at night...anyhow...while I just got Jupiter into focus two strange birds flew overhead...two birds I have never heard before and I know birds really well...at first I thought that's cool they are flying really high making a strange sound I haven't heard before....they went out of sight...
so I went back to the telescope to view jupiter....after some readjusting I had it back in focus but strangely enough the birds that I had seen earlier were now in my focus with Jupiter and circling around the sphere of light of the planet...it was the most peculiar thing..at first I thought how the hell can that be .....just a crazy coincidence that the exact focus of the telescope has also caught these birds...or was it something else...like the birds looking towards Jupiter and doing some crazy dance...maybe a mating dance...I don't know what it was but it was damn cool.....and after I gave it some more thought I wasn't sure 100% that they were birds but perhaps some other creature...
any thoughts on this??????????????
