Probably just a fly or something coming from behind the camera. It's size, colour and vector make it look deceptively like it's something moving fast in the distance.
Is this a UFO?

It's an optical lens/sensor shadow.
Quite common in devices that use compact lens arrangements (like phones, compact cameras etc).

and the shadow is capable of looking as though it's moving from left to right?

I don't know why I wasted 5 minutes but some people still can't see what the OP is on about.
Obviously I don't think it's Aliens but the insect theory sounds plausible.
Look at the time below right, all this happened way before the clay was shot into pieces at 12 seconds.

It's a mini clay launched towards a different shooting station.
I participated in sporting clay shoots for 20 years and could have captured a whole bunch of similar clips if I'd had a decent camera with me.

Good theory but we have the OPs witness statement that there were no more shoots near them, well they would have heard it.
Also from an Health & Safety point of view it wouldn't happen (I think).
Looked like a bird to me, too.

Yes, quite clearly an unladen european swallow. They're very fast.

Don't tell me the ******* can fly now too?
I noticed a slight slowdown too, although it is not a parabolic slowdown from air friction, nor does it look like it was affected by mavity at any point.
It's not a second clay, it's going four? times as fast as the clay the OP is shooting at.
Either a fly in front of the camera or a UFO.
I'd like to think it was a UFO and that we have all narrowly avoided an alien invasion as a result of the OP's shooting skills, he hit the clay and not the UFO.
Hopefully all UFO's keep a flight log, and that one day we will be able to confirm or deny these sightings
