At 9:03 PM. Looking south/East from back yard at 3971 Apple Blossom Way Carmichael. A white light that looked liked a sphere about 15 to 20 FT. large or larger….about 1 mile From my location. Came Straight down from the sky stopped at about 500 or 600 FT from the ground. Hovered there for less than a min. went to the left about 600FT. Stopped then 600 FT to the right. Hovered…then about 1min later a green colored craft that looked diamond shape I be leave came up from the ground. I saw it when it was just coming above the house in front of me. And entered the white craft that was hovering. Then around 30 or 40 seconds later the white craft went straight up traveling at about 10 MPH. the light got smaller and smaller till it diapered. Both crafts were traveling at around 10 MPH. not fast at all. The green craft was blinking like bright then faded then bright again ?....the white craft was just a steady light.. Not bright but about the brightness of a car headlight. The green colored craft was also about that bright as well. This all took place in 5min I would say ?????. The green colored. Craft was about a 1/4 of the size of the white craft………… I said that I believe the crafts were about a mile from me but they could have been feather away than that I am unsure. I have never seen anything like this ever before …. I have seen strange lights in the sky before but have always been able to identify them as a star or plane or helicopter….. Never anything like this ????????? Maybe it could be something of this earth. But for now I am not sure what I saw.??????

3 bird like independent creatures that would fly independent like hummingbirds but would stand still and keep equal distance. Clear night about 4am. Absolutely no noise. About as far away and as high as a hella copter. Looked like big hummingbirds. You did not give me a good shape choice so I picked one to pass

It was an orange orb or fireball that moved in one direction at first like a plane, then seemed to hover, then moved from side to side, and within a couple of minutes, vanished.

It looked like the sheriffs helicopter with its spotlight on which is common in my area. Absolutely no no noise. It was flying directly towards me at about 1500 feet. I’m a (drone pilot) so that’s a pretty good guess on altitude. The light went out and there was nothing there, No strobes, no craft, nothing. Incidentally in correlation my phone, iPad, music speaker all powered down. Probably my 8th sighting through out my life.

My husband and I were laying in bed, relaxing. I glanced out our bedroom window, looking out at the night sky. I was admiring the bright planet (Mercury?) and noticed what I thought was star. It was stable at first, but then it started to move slowly. I told my husband to look and see what I was seeing — which he confirmed it was moving. It made no sound and it had a faint glow; it made no noise. Then, it started to fade in and out, but in slightly different positions; my husband says it looked like it was circling, almost spiraling up. Then it faded away completely.
