On Sept. 17th, Didier Favre of L.A. was photographing sunspot 0808 (Ex 0798) when a passing bird tried to steal the show. "Catch the sunspot if you can!" says Favre.

Another strange object was recently captured moving across the face of Sol:
I mean: c'mon, everybody knows he only flies at nighttime!

Nonsense, that's an obvious montage!

It was taken from orbit as he was arcing over the North Pole.
Either that or it's one heck of an unusual sunspot.

I bought myself a pair of solar binoculars of the transit of Venus, and as I was looking at it, a 747 flew right across the disc of the sun. It would have made a fantastic photo....
