This bright spot looks like the one Bird imaged on the 5th Jan and is at a similar longitude.
Hope the link works, its my first upload.

You have got better eyes than me Trev
I use Filezilla heaps...it's very straight forward.
I can easily see the moon (top square frame 5) and I can also see
a dark shape if I concentrate on your animation for ages (bottom square frame 5).
Anything near the equator/ring plane would be a moon wouldn't it?
And because of the alignment with the sun/inner solar system/us and the
ring plane, I'd imagine a moon shadow would be close to the moon itself and not more towards the poles?
So what I can see (bottom square) would be a storm?..35N?
well done Trev,
You certainly have your Saturn technique down to a fine art
