Oval over Whitby (Canada), ON · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On Monday, May 8th, 2017, outside on my deck in Oshawa, I sat down, enjoying my tea and smoke on my first day holiday off work. The sky was mostly clear as I looked about in the sky. After about one minute looking up in the sky Notice towards the southwest over neighboring Whitby, Ontario, township Looking very high in the sky and some miles away A brilliant white unknown object sitting near stationary What ever it is must of had size It had a shimmering look to it with light intensity. I then grabbed my camera and started to try and capture this long distant anomaly @ 1:02 pm est The object was near stationary as I watched and filmed it until 1:24 pm It did move ever so slowly towards the northwest as I had lost visual due to clouds I took many pictures and short video clips in trying to capture what I was witnessing Will send some pictures to you in photographic evidence

Following on Saturday , September 30 ,2017 While at home in Oshawa ,Ontario I came to the sliding door then opened it looking west stepping onto the deck Right away I see something very strange moving across the sky directly ahead Directly west I see coming from the north at about less than a mile away heading south A spinning, flashing white translucent object at a low altitude maybe 500 feet or less ? After some seconds looked down on my deck table and then grab my camera It moved fast as I started to take stills shots and then it headed directly west @ 2:07 pm That's when I lost sight of it over neighbor's roof tops I must have had only a thirty second window to film it besides wonder ? Happy that I did capture on film Again another one witnessed during the day When reviewing the images I'm really amazed of picture number 20 Looks like some type / form of 'craft ' The bigger question would be to whom it belongs to ? Is it ours or unknown visitors ? Again will send you two of the best pictures along with enhancements Also note pictures were taken with a zoom

Looking north to the edge of Whitby-Pickering northern border, a large orange light appeared, seen by four of us. About a 1-2 min observation, then light disappeared instantly! We suspect a nighttime sighting, and not a morning sighting. We have amended the time above to reflect that fact. The source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous, and provides no contact information, so we are unable to verify the time. PD
