In the yard stargazing we saw an unidentified object move in sky from the NE to the SW at a ģood clip.. Then object disappeared.. Object had 3 dim lit points. The three dim lights looked like circles.. It was traveling in a straight trajectory rotating as it traveled (like it was slowly spinning on its axis).. It felt like it was very high up in the sky. It seemed to be traveling higher than aircraft in the upper atmosphere. We didn't hear it at all.. and it looked like it was in Stealth mode.. or cloaked.. but moving fast enough to avoid visual detection..

So i was looking out my balcony and the back deck on a summer night. I noticed the first initial light just turn on as like a lamp one solid orangeish light as seen in the video. i then stared noticing other ones faintly flashing around it after a few minutes i never thought much when i seen the first one just sitting but when i seen the others appearing I pulled out my phone to film. I witnessed with my eyes in detail the events pictured in the videos so i know that whats seen is accurate to what was happening no camera flares or shines etc. pitch black in country side. So as i continued watching and filming the once solid light became hollow like a ring and i started to notice other ones sort of splitting out of it like when cells multiply and they would appear all in different brightness's going either up or down but making crescent shapes as they appear. That continued for maybe 2-3 minutes from the initial light i seen appear in the sky as it it was turned on and it sat still then progressed into what you see in the video and explained. After it was done it formed a waning crescent moon and remained in the sky the entire night till morning and i could see the moon still in the sky during say time the next day. The color of the seen lights was a orange color similar to headlights until it changed into the moon is was a very bright moon with the normal color you see in the moon at night when its bright. There were no aircraft seen flying during the report landing or taking off as there is a small private airport a few kilometres to the North of where the video was taken. Sky was mostly clear very few clouds no rain, no wind no recent storms. I did have a weird feeling that i felt almost being watched or observed when i started recording and before i was recording only small lights were flashing around it similar to seen in the first clip solid balls not ring like also pictured later. I've never been a big UFO person but to this day that was one of the many strange things ive seen living out in the country where i can better observe the sky and the only thing I've been able to record to date. I also witnessed only via camera a second UFO seen appearing as almost blue/white energy looking thing I've never really known how to describe it i noticed it on camera while taking photos of the moon after it finished and was just sitting as the moon and when i zoomed in i seen what appeared to be "energy" as it looked like it was flowing or moving kinda like electricity and it was one strong line going horizontally slightly tiled and above was lighter lines in 2 spiked patterns that also seemed to flow with energy. i was able to observe this for about 10 minutes before it just kinda faded out slowly till it was gone it never moved any directs on made lights or changed in any was i didn't notice how it came to appear i just seen it on camera. The "moon" remained all night with no further changes after its initial ones. The videos were posted to my instagram account several years ago im trying to get the originals or save them in a better manner if i am able to i will be these are same footage just screen recorded from my page as i couldnt download the videos as files.

Airdrie (Canada), AB · Canada
Three lights, spaced about 2 minutes apart, heading from South east to north west of Airdrie. First light was a sapphire blue, then the next was red, and the third was white. Seemed to be airplane height, but no noise. Lights crossed an airplane flight path with regular sighting of planes (every 10 min or so). Lights kept going, and didn't seem to hit the horizon.

Me and my women were drinking coffee in our car when suddenly she says look! on her side of car, I heard A loud aircraft aprox. 200ft from ground level... 1 green light on right side of triangle aircraft That I just happened to see flying over my side of car now. I rushed for a video and got it. I was videoing this thing, and when it got a distance away it changed to 1 solid red light!!! And my video only caught 2 seconds of this thing which Is complete ((one word deleted)) because I captured it perfectly. Also people this sounded like a helicopter low to the ground, but no visibility inside triangle.

Scarborough, ON · Canada
On Friday , August 18, 2017, I was outside my workplace in Scarborough, Ontario, on my morning break. At exactly 10:06 am - time stamp on my camera Witnessed very high above my work roof northwest A bright white rectangle shaped object It was in a vertical position which appeared almost stationary I then immediately pulled out my camera Pointing it towards the high white unknown object still visual As I took the picture witnessed a bright white blue flash The object was now gone in a blink of an eye There were many clouds about that within seconds covered where I had seen it I waited another ten minutes to see if I could see it again Not much hope with much cloud cover moving fast Yet that small area of the blue sky was clear to see much higher up In examining the one picture taken Surprisingly it was not captured on film As to it's purpose being up there Just brings further wonder in timing Thanks again

They blended like stars. Till we seen them moving, then realized there was more than one. Over a course of the 2 hours we were there. We watched them drive the sky. They went zigzag, shooting strait and stopping. Looked like they were searching….then they stop and act like a star. And not move. If I didn’t see it moving, I would have thought it was a star. There was a meteor shower happening, we couldn’t be the only ones to see what we saw!

I didn't notice anything until I looked at the pictures from the hike days later. When the picture was taken I couldn't see the screen on my phone because it was too bright out. Blurry object at the top of the photo looks to us to be a bird in flight. PD

Niverville (Canada), MB · Canada
On the evening of August 7th, 2017, at approximately 9:30 pm, while out in my front yard, I was looking up, as we were expecting rain and I was checking to see if any rain clouds had moved in. It was still clear with only a few wispy clouds scattered widely across the sky. A,s I was looking up I noticed what at first appeared to be a star, about the brightness of Venus. It was stationary in relation to the other stars, but, then began to move. I knew it was moving as it closed the distance between itself and a stationary star in my field of view. I'm familiar with aircraft, as I grew up on RCAF bases, and we are on the flight path of the airport in Winnipeg. This light made no sound, had no other lights or beacons, and moved much slower than even a landing aircraft, and it was moving east in a straight line, not to the northwest, which would be the case if it was landing in Winnipeg. I continued to watch it as it moved east gaining speed as it went, and the strange thing is it increased in brightness, the farther away from me it got, almost as if it wanted to make sure I could follow its progress. I remained visible until it disappeared over the horizon. I'm 62 years old a truck driver and don't drink or use drugs

Oshawa (Canada), ON · Canada
On July 31, 2017, at about 12:50 am at home in Oshawa, Ontario. I was outside on my deck facing west towards Whitby, Ontario having a smoke. Looking about in the clear night sky for anything unusual. After about a minute or so noticed a single bright flash of white light. Being so quick one wonders if there really was a flash seen? Due to staring and seeing nothing more. Until about twenty-thirty seconds later. Again another single flash of white light appears and disappears. In the same area of the sky this is witnessed. Staring intensely in the northwest area for anything else. Again see nothing until about three -five minutes later. Shocked to see a bright white light object appear. Looked low in altitude Object was flashing a high to low white light moving very slow. You could even make out the structure of the object as to it's brightness flashing intensity It appeared longish and dark It just moved directly west from my position northwest. Maybe traveled about quarter to a half a mile away until it just faded out. The duration of the sighting lasted maybe about thirty seconds Again staring in shock wondering what it was that I had just seen. Continued to watch for it about another ten minutes Staring in same area of the sky Then after seeing nothing else. I just went back inside the house thinking was that same object in the area ? From single bright white interval flashes. Then later appearing in front of my eyes - gone ! Is this some form of visual contact directed at me ? Should I be frightened or merely fascinated what I had just seen ? Weird and interesting in observing another different type of UFO sighting. In truth I do not know if this would be considered 'two' different sightings ? Or the same one ?

I reported this to MUFON these lights passed directly over us as we sat on our deck it was really large and probably covered our whole house i was looking straight up and it came into my view and was going really fast, when i screamed out my daughter looked up and also saw it bright white perfectly round circles of light (about the size of a basketball) in a v formation (i think it was 7 lights but i may have even been 9) my daughter was at a different angle than me and saw it a split second later ( she saw whisps of light off of it) it was going really fast and was gone in a couple of seconds it made no sound it was travelling north to south ( we live on a park and earlier that night there were a bunch of kids playing with really bright flashlights on the park, directing them everywhere and on the large trees and slide)

My wife and her mother and I are witnessing an anomaly high up in space around the area that you would normally see the sun go down if watching from Collingwood, Ontario , Canada. It's an orangeish 3 dots that look like they are constantly blinking and morphing into 1light and then back to three lights. We all believe that it has been moving irradicly unlike anything we know of man made.

Gibsons (Canada), BC · Canada
Not quite sure what to make of this, but here goes... I was taking a little break from work (I work from home) in the afternoon, sitting in my backyard enjoying the sun and watching the dragonflies. We live about 5 miles north of Gibsons, BC, in a rural area on the shores of Howe Sound. The sky was completely cloudless, gorgeous blue, with only a sliver of the rising crescent moon in the western sky. I was sitting in a lawn chair, watching the dragonflies, and observing a small dual prop plane traverse the standard flight path to YVR behind where I was sitting (northwest to southeast). I glanced back at the crescent moon to my left, when I noticed a strange moving 'object' to the right, in the sky above the house between two trees. Hard to tell the altitude, but it seemed to be minimum of airliner cruising altitude (30K feet-ish), but really hard to tell. What it looked like was this: imagine the crescent moon, flattened out as if it was a disc on the horizontal plane, with the reflected curved surface facing towards the sun, and the other half, like the moon in daylight, not really visible. It was moving at a speed normally seen with passenger planes, but it definitely wasn't a passenger plane (WAY too big... and not the right shape). No sound at all (whic! h is why it surprised me, outside of the way it looked), and the large curved shape just didn't fit. Wasn't a contrail either (not that I've ever seen a 'curved' contrail like that from an airliner, but I did ponder that possibility... it's the only other thing that MIGHT look like that, in very strange circumstances I can't quite even imagine). I called my son (he was in the house) and hopped out of the chair to run to the front of the building to catch another glimpse of it, as it had gone 'behind' the big tree in our front yard so I couldn't see it from the back any longer. And of course, it was no longer visible. Sadly, I didn't have my phone with me to take a photo - though I don't think I would have been quick enough to catch it anyway. So strange. Never seen anything like that before. We're pretty observant (I love planes and helicopters, so always looking skyward) and I saw interesting lights one night over Pemberton, BC, a number of years ago, but I've never witnessed anything like what I saw last week. Oh - one more thing: it wasn't visible traversing the sky above my chair, as I was glancing at the sky pretty much the entire time, I was sitting out there - it was only in between the trees south of the house that it was visible. Very odd…

St. Croix (Canada), NB · Canada
July 23, 2017. I went to take photos of the milky way at the St. Croix River canoe landing in St. Croix, New Brunswick, at about 11pm (Atlantic time). I set up my camera, and had taken a few shots at f3.5, 25 seconds, iso2500. I just happened to turn to the right and saw this very very bright object in the sky over head. If I had to measure it with my fingers, I would say it was about 1 1/2 inch by 1/2inch. I am just guessing now as it happened so fast. I have never seen anything that bright in the sky. It was crescent shape with a small extension in the middle of the back side. I tried to get my camera off of the tripod and change my settings, but could not see very well . I had a flashlight and tried to get it set, but the object was moving fast and it was almost gone. I switched my camera to movie mode and took a couple of shots. I couldn’t tell were I was shooting as I couldn’t see very well on my screen. I had live view on, but my lens was at 18mm so everything looked small. When I got home, I downloaded my photos and looked to see if I had got it. There was only a small dot, but when you scrolled it bigger it looked like a long wire of light. They is not very good but if you want them, you can have them. Please note that the postal code I put in may or may not be correct. I was at a canoe landing and there is no postal code that I know of. I am 79 years old, retired. I do photography, painting and woodcrafts. I do not drink or smoke or pop pills. ((name deleted))

Montreal (Canada), QC · Canada
Hello. I would like to report an unusual sight in the skies above Montreal, Quebec, Canada, on the night of 22 July 2017. At approximately 10:15pm, three of us were on the 9th floor common roof-deck of a high-rise condo complex. We were there to observe fireworks in the downtown area; these fireworks were, as it happened, low on the horizon and occluded by other buildings. The sky was generally clear, with a few long & wide “contrail-like” clouds present. After a few minutes of watching the skyline, etc., we looked directly overhead and saw the following phenomena. We saw a grouping of small white cloudlets within an elliptical patch of sky, whose long dimension was approximately equivalent to 5” held at arm’s length. Within that grouping was an illuminated “v” shape, about ½” at arm’s length in extent, with the arms of the “v” consisting of a number of bright “pinpoint” emerald green lights, each surrounded by small halos. The shape and distribution of lights (which appeared quite definitely organized or “non-random” to us) remained stationary, as far as we could tell. A we watched the “v” shape, we saw it gradually fade away. Then, to one side of its location, but also within the elliptical patch of white cloudlets, we noticed a faint white line, extremely linear and precise, and stationary in the sky, with an extent of about 1” at arm’s length. This white line, and the surrounding patch of cloudlets, then faded entirely from view; that is to say, it did not disperse or drift away. The duration of this sighting was approximately 45 seconds. At various times before and after the sighting, we noticed low light-aircraft above Montreal; in addition, a rotating searchlight/beacon was operating from one of the downtown highrises. Regardless, the phenomenon we observed bore no relationship to these other light sources, nor to the distant fireworks. And incidentally, we noticed that smoke from the low fireworks simply drifted with the wind, and did not fade out. Lastly, one of us (me) waited for clouds to drift into the area directly overhead, where we’d seen the phenomena, to see if some local ground-based illumination might have been the culprit; but I saw nothing of the sort. For whatever it’s worth, I myself am a PhD physicist (particle physics), 58 years of age. We have corresponded with the witness, and he seems to us to be quite sincere, and sober-minded. We plan to invite him to submit an illustration of what it was he witnessed. PD

St. Andrews By The Sea (Canada), NB · Canada
I am visiting with my friend, ((man's name deleted)), at his water front cottage in St. Andrews by the sea, NB weather was perfect at about 19:00 Alt. We are sitting outside on the deck when a micro UFO, about 1/2" to 3/4" in size, passed between us, moving from NW to S. Only I noticed it at first, I watched it move up to the window of the cottage stop for a few moments looking inside, then it moved away threw the latis work of a cast iron patio chair, when it noticed that I was watching it and my friend, then it went straight up in seconds. It was two shades of white, and looked like a soccer ball and a dandelion, it was over in 20 seconds. The first thing I said to ((man's name deleted)) was that was a UFO and he agreed. We both think small UFOs are best as not to scare us.
