Default It's a bird, it's a plane it's... can anyone tell me?

I was trying to take a pic of afull moon one night, and I took a lot. Since I have only 270mm lens I can not zoom my shot at that time. When I looked at it in my computer and zoom in I saw this unusual object. I don't know if it's a plane or a bird or something. Can any one tell me?
Thanks.

Joe

it looks like a hang glider. Do you have a 100% crop?

Hi joodiespost,
Yes I have but it will be very small. I already did crop and enhanced this.
Thanks.
Joe

PhotogAve and Jskriloff,
Thanks for your reply. It looks like a bat. But doesn't it look like a F-117 or F-118 also?
pjflan7. Thanks for your comment. I thought it looks like a marsh harrier also, I think?
Thanks Joe

Whatever it is nicely captured moon and interesting blob lol I reckon bat but think that a plane would be a blur due to shutter speed? nicely captured though

I agree.
By the way, love the details of the moon.
If it isn't my original guess (a bat), maybe it's a small flying alien
