I am no pilot, so forgive this “ignorant” question. If the aircraft was a 25,000 ft, how could that be a bird big enough to see like that? I thought the O2 above 10k feet was too thin to breath.

I understand if I am going east at 500 miles an hour, and something passes me at 500 miles an hour, it will look like its going a lot faster.

They saw something. I doubt at that altitude they were seeing a bird large enough to track.
