IS it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it maybe a UFO?

Ben Buckley and a mate were at the southern end of Mon Repos on Friday morning checking out the surf when he took four photos on his mobile phone.

When he took a look at the photos later he found an object he could not identify on the second photo.

“Some people have said it's a bird but when you zoom in it looks like a black dot sitting on a cushion,” he said.

Mr Buckley is still trying to get an expert opinion on the image.

“I've sent the photo off to some UFO sites I found on the internet but I haven't had a response yet,” he said.

“I wouldn't want to say for sure it's an alien or anything like that.”
