Yeah, helicopter shadow…that’s my first thought.

And in addition to that, it starts on land and then swiftly crosses the water without leaving any sort of wake or traces of water disturbance.

looks more like a shadow of an object moving overhead. If you watch it as its crosses over the water edges and beach edges, its image wavers. Consistent with a shadow cross over edges to me.

Yeah, the dark spot moves too seamlessly across the water, and not through the water to be any animal like thing.

However this brought to mind a sighting (maybe WWI?–don’t have my books handy to check the dates) where a boat or u-boat went down and when it exploded a sea monster was supposedly thrown to the surface (yeah, that’s pretty vague on the details, but again, see above. ).

And I would guess even sea going cryptids could get caught in tsunamis, though on the other hand, animals seem to have a much better handle on mother nature for sensing that kind of thing.

Just based on the speed alone it is probably a helicopter. Unless it is a supersonic cryptid – maybe a turbo-charged nessie.

I saw a lot of those watching various aerial footage of different areas and I think it’s either a bird or a helicopter

I think it’s a helicopter. Right shape and its trajectory is very straight.
