[claudiaz]

very nice entry, thank you @norwegiansteem and welcome to the contest

[norwegiansteem]

Thank you 😄😄

[rimicane]

1. Is the helicopter, although you have got plenty of these already! But anyways, I have been sitting waiting for the sunset when I saw the helicopter in the air. In the end, it killed my battery... hehe.
   

2. Something different. It is not a helicopter, not a plane and not a bird - it is simply a funikular in Swiss! It was a very scary ride up the mountain!
   

[claudiaz]

very nice photos, thanks for entering the contest!

[dragraff]

I actually found another one that I consider would fit well in this theme. It's a picture I took on the way to Cuba 🇨🇺 this year:

Reblogged! Will come up with an identified flying object! Thanks for bringing us these wonderful challenges!
Xoxo!

[claudiaz]

even an unidentified (UFO) one would be exciting, hahaha. Enjoy!

[nolasco]

I wish I had one! But here are two unidentified birds! I guess they are pelicans, but I'm not sure! East Timor!

Xoxo!

[claudiaz]

lovely photo, thanks @nolasco

[nolasco]

Thank YOU, sweetie!

[nolasco]

And these ones aren't exactly in the sky, they are taking off! Cockatoos in Australia!

[claudiaz]

still flying though! so they qualify, lol

[nolasco]

Then I'm happy :))! Thanks, lovely girl!

[nolasco]

And in Bali, this cute intruder in the landscape!

[claudiaz]

very lovely photo, but still no "UFO", I am quite disapointed, hahaha.

[nolasco]

Me too... Oh, If I could get one... I'd be happy for the rest of my life, lol!

[claudiaz]

and famous too, just imagine! lol
