Ron Stepp said that he was working near Eastern State Hospital when it appeared above like a huge smoke ring in the sky.

There’s only one reasonable explanation ... and Giorgio Tsoukalos can tell you all about it.

I like Ancient Aliens. I’ve seen every episode.

They had reasonable explanations for some odd cloud formations a few years back. 2015: “Technically called “lenticular clouds” were not omens and not UFOs.”

Another Ancient Aliens reasonable explanation over North Carolina with a perfectly circular hole in the cloud bank:

“Experts believe a likely explanation is that it was a fallstreak or hole punch cloud, a weather phenomenon that has resulted in reports of UFOs in other parts of the country, according to Earthsky.org. Hole punches are created when “supercooled” water droplets turn to ice crystals after coming into contact with passing planes, the National Weather Service reports. The frozen droplets start to fall, creating a hole that expands “outward as neighboring droplets start to freeze,”the NWS says. “They look like strange clearings in an altocumulus cloud layer, often circular patches of clear sky, surrounded by clouds,” reports Earthsky.org. “Sometimes people report them as UFOs.”

I'd go with bored birds.

Escapees from the Far Side.

Passerines with puns.

Thought they'd have a little pun as they passed over "Williamsbird", maybe hoping for a car wreck or two.
