Pause it and take a look at the wings.

I'd love to believe it .... but, I just don't know.
Nice spot though and thanks for posting it.

Well, what got me interested is if you use the video 'tracker' to move it back and forth slowly, it turns its head to see where its going in a very natural fashion, secondly look at the first frames, there's no feathers on the wings.
It doesn't look like CGI and it's definately not a model.
Watcha think?

Well, I'm no expert but there's nothing in the frame that we can use to judge the size of the thing. I know nothing of cgi or other possible camera trickery but I do know that even if I was the one taking the footage I'd seriously doubt it was a pterodactyl type creature.
If it is genuine footage of a ropen it could be a new bird or bat, I hope the answer is out there somewhere but if it is you're more likely to find in on the news than on youtube.
