Today (or maybe it was yesterday or last week), an intrepid photographer made this image of what he asserts is a rarely seen prehistoric animal. In fact it is so rare that some experts speculate it is the first and only sighting of a pterodactyl in, well, 150 million years.

Others (foolhardy skeptics mostly) believe the said photographer displays a delusional imagination, and that the reputed flying reptile is nothing more than the ubiquitous brown pelican.

Believe whatever you wish...
 it's the internet after all
and truth is elusive.
