Your UFO/UFI/UFB is just a motion blur from insect that passed very close to you camera, probably less than 2m from it. It looks elongated cause insect has grater angular speed in respect to camera than airplane so you need faster shutter speeds to freeze its motion.

Now - For me , insects are usually brown or blackish blobs , sometimes you can clearly see the wings and legs hanging down ..
Birds tend to look like birds ...

When it gets interesting , is when the object no longer looks like a bird or insect ..

Also when there appears to be a reflective side and a shadowed side or surface .. Reflective sides generally tend towards metals ...
Now Im not saying anything , except some of the images are interesting ...

Perhaps one day ill get a better picture ? , just have to remember the camera !

I was able to enlarge your last photo with secret government technology stolen by the Russians. The result speaks for itself:
