Strange Flying 'Creature' Photographed at Macachín, Argentina Airport
The CEUFO (Center for Studies UFO) of Argentina received an email from a photographer (Fabián Romano) that claimed to have captured a strange being on his camera while taking some shots around the Macachín airport.
The image submitted to CEUFO is said to have been taken in midday with a Minolta digital camera. Using a lens of 135 mm and a manual speed of 1/1000.
The CEUFO analyzed the image and declared it to be that of a flying “entity”. They also said that the image was of a “high strangeness”. The CEUFO came to this conclusion after submitting the photograph to rigorous testing.
CEUFO also submitted the image to various centers around the globe for further examination. The curator for the Provincial Museum (Gustavo Siegentale) said that the image was “very strange” indeed. Gustavo Siegentale went on to even claim that this could be a “mammal, carnivore and with wings” obviously “an unknown species”.
According to The CEUFO, the image was then submitted to the Special Criminal Division (police) of La Pampa. The division, using hi-tech equipment that is usually used for criminal cases, said that the in the photograph, one can see eye sockets, a beak and the object could be 80 cm tall. Taking in reference the airplane’s propellor in the background.
The CEUFO also said that this was not the only reported sighting of the creature. There has been other situations were people have seen strange creatures in or around the airport area. Further investigations are pending.

It could indeed be some unknown entity, but it also looks like a jury-rigged duck to me.
If you look carefully at its lower 'limbs' you'll notice how they seem attached to the main body by 'sinews' or 'filaments' of some kind, making it look as if the 'duck's trying to shake them off after attachment.
You can also see two little shadowy stumps right where its legs would be if this was a plain ol' common or garden duck.
There are indeed weird critters out there in abundance, but it's possible this isn't one of them.
Looks to me that this is a Wallaby or perhaps a Kangaroo....
Actually it looks like an out of focus wasp or better yet, hornet. Looks as though he's facing the camera with his legs dangling beneath him and his wings out stretched.
If this was shot at 1000/sec speed it would NOT be blurry.
Even a hummingbird's speed is no match for 1/1000sec. A picture of that bird would be clear and focused.
Either this "UFO" moves faster than anything ever seen before, or the original statement of camera speed is wrong, or it's fake.
I'm gonna go with fake.
It has a head shaped like some flying foxes (such as a bespectacled flying fox) but without the ears. A shiny head too! Flying foxes are related to kangaroos, but are also primates. And kangaroos have recently been discovered to be genetically related to human beings. (I think that is all correct - please check!) So put that together! - the feet and wings are not at all like a flying fox as they do not join, the wings being separated from the legs. They look almost human! Is it a primate? Maybe? It looks to me like it would have to be bipedal (or else hang upside down like a flying fox or a bat). Why an airport??Curiosity ...about human beings? Managing to avoid human beings for so long could be a sign of intelligence. Perhaps they have been observing human society... Others...?! Language even maybe? Social organisation? Sentient beings? Who knows ... ?
A little basic zoology would be helpful in this discussion. Elizabeth Jane, Flying Foxes are not NOT related to Kangaroos or Primates, they are bats, large fruit eating bats generally found in S. E. Asia. They are not, to my knowledge, found in S.A.
Will said it could be a wasp or hornet, the former possibly (though unlikely) but hornets, at least those in N.A. do not have long legs, when compared to say a paper wasp.
As for it being a Kangaroo or Wallaby, this photo is from Argentina, not Australia, and last I checked they don't have wings.
This is either a fake, an unknown, or a misidentified animal. Perhaps a raptor (i.e. hawk, not dinosaur) of some kind holding a dangling snake it had killed? In any case it's an interesting photo.
Uh people your attention please. The creature in the photo is known as a GREMLIN and they have long been known to cryptos and air crews. They are also well known for their penchant to hitch rides on the exterior of aircraft while they rest their poor itty bity wings.
I'm gonna go with Will on this one. Definitely looks like a wasp or hornet flying at the camera to me. If you look closely, everything for it to be such is there. The dangling legs, the downward triangular head, protruding, bulbous eyes and the position of the wings.
