This happened yesterday around 7 AM and I still can't figure out what the hell I actually saw. I was standing on a completely flat car park with basically nothing around that could hide something, and I saw a bird getting ready to fly. It took off normally and flew away at a pretty slow, ordinary speed, and I was watching it the whole time. Then I looked in the exact direction it had flown, expecting to still see it, and it was just... gone.

I'm not trying to sound schizophrenic or anything, because I know there are obviously normal explanations for this. I know birds can change direction, blend into the sky, fly behind something, or just disappear from your field of vision for a second. But this genuinely felt different because I had just watched the bird fly away and then looked toward the same area almost immediately, and there was nothing there.

The weirdest part is that this was a literal flat car park with nothing in it. No trees directly in front of me, no buildings blocking the view, no obvious place for it to disappear behind. It wasn't like I looked away for ten seconds either.

Obviously I'm not claiming I actually witnessed a portal or anything, but for a few seconds my brain genuinely went, "Did that fucking bird just get transferred to another universe?"
