Good catch on that one, rare birds over NI.  Though the past two days have had one over Ards at 14:40 taunting me from above the haze..
There were 2 yesterday that flew overhead more or less side by side albeit one at 40000ft and another at 38000ft with a BA B747 in pursuit! When I lost sight of then the BA had overtaken them both but because of the haze I didn't get a clear picture, hugely disappointed as the 3 were almost flying in formation!

Loads of thick haze up here at BFS,can get visual on some overflights,but most are obscured which is a shame as there is plenty of stuff passing over.

Very nice Smudge,don`t see that often-I was up early this morn and got a few contrails,but most were very far out for pics.
Saw a Egypt Air,Air Taihiti Nui,BA,KLM and a few others.


I took a few shots,but doubt they are of any use.
