Starship Asterisk*

Swan is good, but I saw a dancing crane displaying for his mate.

Looks like a dolphin jumping out of water.

A basilisk !

I saw a dolphin.

The first sight of it looked like a hummingbird. When I focused a bit more I saw a dragon, but would prefer my first impression of a hummingbird.

It looks like a dragon or a hummingbird

Phoenix

giant alien octopus -- we are only seeing one tentacle and top of the head!

Yes, Phoenix rising from the ashes.

It's an elusive cosmic swordfish that has breached Earth''s atmosphere for a short time.

A cosmic creature, with the body of a shark and the tail of an eel. The tail has breached the surface, and is sending splashes of electrons everywhere.

The serpent Midgaurd. It's an interesting thought I had never considered about the origins of ancient myths of fantastic creature originated from. In a primitive person's eye this would certainly inspire fear and wonder and would require an explanation that would fit into their understanding of the world filled with wolves bears reptiles birds and whatever sea creatures they encountered in real life.

A swan

Most definitely a trumpeting dragon, calling to the sky before rising.
