I actually didn't see the object until I went back and looked at my pictures. I tried to zoom in on my picture to get a clearer view but don't have the equipment to do such a thing.

A group of witnesses was already gathered, looking up at a formation of 40 lights streaming east when my son and I arrived on a mountain-top 7 miles east up the Alsea River from Waldport, Oregon. We watched for 15 minutes. The velocity of motion was pulsing or wavelike. When a light was directly above, there was a burst of orange and multi-colored light. It looked like one went up, out of the atmosphere. My 18 year old son noticed two lights traveling side-by-side. The next day, we learned that a maintenance worker at a coastal hotel in Newport, Oregon, also counted 50 lights.

I was pulling into my driveway at approximately 23:45 on June 17th, 2017, so it was last Saturday. Right when I got out of the car, my neighbor came running over to me and asked me if I knew what the strange lights were directly above my house, so I looked up and saw these strange oval bright lights that were pulsating and zooming out and would then fly back in. They were a bright white and seemed to form a pattern. I have never seen anything like it in my life and my neighbor who is from Arizona, had never seen anything like it either. The lights appeared to be approximately 200 feet above my house. Then two days ago on June 23rd, 2017 my uncle who lives close by, was standing out on his deck with binoculars, and he said he could see two flying saucer like objects hovering above my house. One was approximately 50 to 200 feet above he thought and the other was directly above that one, about 500 feet above the roof of my house. They had red, orange and green lights on them and hovered there for about one hour. This occurred at about 23:45 again until about 1:30 in the morning. I was asleep during this time so I did not see them but my uncle called me to let me know. I have never experienced anything like this before and I have never studied UFO’s or been a watcher of them. I have recently moved to the Oregon Coast from the valley area of Oregon.
