It was a hot day and the sun was out, I looked up into the sky facing north and saw the object reflecting off of the sun almost as if it was metallic. It moved from north to west in a matter of minutes and looked as if it was potentially just below cloud height. I had never seen an object like it in the 8 years prior to the sighting and I haven’t in the near 2 years after.
