Waiting for a bus. Spotted UFO immediately hovering over vicinity of St. Clair Reservoir Park. Took six pics on iPhone 6s. Distracted enough to not think of taking a video. After about a minute or two, two groups of young men came along sidewalk and gathered to wait for the bus. We talked briefly and no one could come up with an idea of what it could be. The head and tail were changing colour from blue to green. The head at times looked like a v-shaped jet plane and then would morph and go out of focus to more of a blob shape. Sometimes the head was a bright white colour and then it would change to the same colour as the tail. The tail was moving somewhat and had separate lights within it. Advised by admin. of UFO UpDates to report it. Update from witness: This has been explained as a kite with leds. [NUFORC annotation: Kite - Certain]

Erratically moving in all directions but not really moving? Seemed like it playing, varied blue color and shape. I'm not used to seeing ufo's when I open the window in the master bath to let the cool air in at night. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Possible]

After moving from 180 degrees SW to 200 degrees SW it stayed still for 2 hours then dropped in an angle to 240 degrees SW almost to the ground. It then instantly moved upward to right about 100 ft then back to whee it had temporarily stopped. At this point it’s a white dot that increased and decreased its illuminosity. According to moon schedule it should have been a new quarter only right side showing. I have video on my ring camera. Besides this a small white orb floats down parallel. Also have odd lights for at least 3 consecutive nights and saucer craft that can only be seen on video. The moon like object could be seen. At first it simply appeared and as it moved right it seemed to change shape and illuminosity around its edges but staying roughly round. I need to screen record my Ring footage. Wanted to send this right away.

Long string of bright yellow light with dispersed dots of white light and one red light on left end of string as it moved across the sky from southwest to northeast. Yellow string moved as a broad front, not in a linear fashion (similar to a starlink as I understand it), along the axis of advance. Absolutely silent as it moved. Altitude estimated at 2000 to 3000 feet. Shape of the line appeared to change, as can be seen in the two pictures attached. Multiple images of the yellow line in the pictures are due to camera shake during pro-longed exposure. Unfortunately, the entire line of light is not in the pictures due to haste in grabbing the camera and taking the pictures.

I glanced to the the sky and witnessed a white glowing orb with a soft blue hue. There was a black line dividing the orb, making it look like a hamburger. I looked away. But then, my daughter asked me "do you see that?" So, I glanced up to the sky again and watched an object pulsate in a wave like pattern down towards Earth. It had beautiful white lights that would appear and then disappear as it was moving along it's path. It was absolutely beautiful. My attention suddenly shifted as I (we) watched a dark black triangle move across the sky. It had a few of the beautiful sparkling white lights, but they disappeared as it turned into a deep and dark black color. It got very close to us as we stood there watching it fly by. My daughter said it was the size of a commercial air plane, but what I saw was much smaller. The only reason I could see it at all was because of it's deep, rich black color. It was absolutely silent as it passed us by, us, which was odd and absolutely amazing! In total, my experience lasted approximately 5-10 seconds. But, it felt much longer, like slow motion took over from start to finish. I told my daughter that I felt like I was hypnotized as we were walking back to the house. Overall, I'm happy I got to experience this life changing event, I will never forget it! Ever.

At the end of our street I noticed an oval shape surrounded by a faint wavering light. It was directly above us, moving like a floating feather, or like a snake. We watched it come down and circle around, becoming a very large black V with no lights. I honestly don’t know how I was able to see it with no lights on or around it, I can’t explain anything about it.

I returned home around 2:30 am & in my window saw 1 aircraft that I assumed was a plane. I watched it for several minutes & when it continued blinking colors I grabbed my binoculars & saw that it was not a plane. It had stopped moving when another craft appeared near it. I woke my partner up & we ended counting 3 crafts near, but not next, to each other. They were amongst/hidden by clouds for a couple minutes, however, you would still see the lights. After watching for 30 minutes we witnessed a bright light shoot vertically from in between 2 of the aircraft’s down toward the ground. The light disappeared & we had not heard a sound or any news reports. We watched them for a total of 3-4 hours before fall asleep. We assumed they remained in the sky.

Wife and I have observed numerous unusual lights in the last 6 months. We see airplanes/helicopters daily due to small airport close by and KCI being not too far. But in the last several weeks we have seen 3 or 4 separate ufos. The first was about 2 or 3 weeks before the latest last week. The first was a bobbing light that would skip ahead suddenly then return to bobbing across the sky. We observed it for several minutes before it disappeared behind the roof. Seemed several 1000ft in the air.. Tried to take photos. But all 3 turned out as streaks on the camera phone… Then last week I noticed an object moving fast about 2-300 ft off the ground going over our house.. Took me a minute to realize what I was seeing and pointed it out to my wife. It seemed to be an object or objects in a cloud of mist. It almost seemed to be changing shape or the mist was distorting the shape. No sound at all. We sit on our back deck to smoke and are avid sky watchers. We have seen skylink and other satellites on several occasions. But what we have seen lately is beyond our experience.

2 lights around maybe 200 feet long were orbiting each other in the eastern part of the night sky. First going slow then circling each other very fast to the point of almost touching. Then after about 45 seconds or so, one flew west a little low to the ground towards California or Westard. While the little bit bigger orb or craft stayed in places where Jupiter would be normally in the sky for the night. 3 people in total saw it and all said the same thing and all agreed none of them made any noises.

I was looking at a clear blue sky. A light appeared in the sky, fairly high up. It looked like a red light or a star. I could just see the light. I thought it might be an airplane. I definitely looked like a UFO, so I started taking pictures. I have a Canon Digital Rebel T7 with a separate zoom lens. I took as many pictures as I could. The object disappeared, reappeared, and then finally disappeared. This lasted about thirty seconds. The object was moving slowly towards my right. There are about 40 photographs. The original images are here. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nM01oe9vw-AI3ANO0W29aHgGT9ga9xsU/view [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Possible]

I first observed the object in the Western sky above my house, appearing more distant than a passing plane which was moving North to South and initially believed it was a Bald Eagle changing courses in the air due to a seemingly black body and a white "head." As I continued to watch the object, I could tell it was lower than the plane had been, was dropping altitude and appeared to be a tumbling black triangle or other polygonal shape before settling into one altitude which did not appear to change in any meaningful way. The object was moving West to East at a slow pace, without jerky movements and produced no sound. After it passed above my home and some power lines, it appeared to be rotating clockwise and was now a diamond shape like that found on an engagement ring. It passed above a nearby cell phone tower (~200ft high) as it continued East. As it reached a nearby highway (from what I could tell distance-wise), the object began tracking South. Still rotating and no marked change in speed. Direction change wasn't abrupt or concerning in any way. Throughout the viewing, the object would reflect the sun but seemingly only on one side as it rotated. Sketches of the object include one shape which is the "tumbler" and the second which is the "diamond." The video I have cannot be uploaded through the form because the file size is too large, do not want to add compression to the video to keep it its highest quality.

We were driving down Pinefield Rd going towards Christ Church Rd. We saw what we thought was a bright star or planet. We have seen it before. Tonight it appeared to be moving. The closer we got to the end of the road, it appeared to have "stem" like things coming from the center.

We work early morning hours and me and my 2 coworkers were outside smoking a cigarette before shift started at 4 am. As we were talking I saw what I thought was a bright star dim and fall slowly out of the sky and didn't think anything of it. Continued with conversations until 1-2 minutes later I saw the same "star" pop back up where I saw it fall from so at this point, I tell my co workers what I saw and as I did and we were looking at it, it did it again and we all seen it at that point. It continued the same cycle, falling down and dimming and then 5 seconds later it popped back up where it came from out of no where, at one point one of the lights split into 2 separate lights , we saw a triangle formation, there were 3 lights in a straight line at one point, we also have on video, very bad quality, of what looks like a light moving very fast around something circular.

While working out on my bench I looked up and saw a small object very high in altitude. I grabbed my binoculars and could see it better. Seemed to be changing shape as it reflected light in different ways. Rotating object looked round, then triangle, then square. Sometimes it looked like two. After a while it moved away at a slow speed, then disappeared. Then showed back up at original location. Its probably still sitting there as I couldn’t be out there all day. I had also seen the same thing a couple of days earlier but it blinked twice then disappeared before I could get my binoculars. This was no balloon or aircraft. Will be updating if seen again

Agassiz, BC · Canada
At 9:00PM my wife noticed something over the roof of our house flying East. She pointed it out to me as I looked up the group of 9 to 12 golden orbs was in triangular shape. It looked like an airplane. Then the orbs started changing formation. It looked like they were playing and flying over and under each other. As they continued to head East they changed formation a couple more times. I tried getting my phone and snapping a couple of pictures/videos by it was too dark and all I have is a black video. As I was trying to look at my phone screen and try to get objects in sight my wife watched them stop for a second then shoot straight up and disappear. This lasted 30-45 seconds from start to finish. After that, we saw a short meteor shower/space debris falling. As we were ready to call it a night and go back inside at 9:45PM we saw the golden orbs again this time just over the Norther horizon above the tree line. This time for 5 seconds but we could still see them change formation from single file to almost boomerang shape then just disappear over school behind our house. Height is hard to judge but it was definitely higher than small planes that fly around our area and lower than most commercial fights we see. The second fly-by was much lower and looked like it was only a few hundred feet off the ground.

Homosassa, FL
We went on a night walk through our neighborhood the early morning hours of Oct 5, around 1:45 am. It is a small horseshoe-shaped road-- to walk the entire thing takes about 15 min. 1/4 of the walk from the house, facing east, slightly southeast, I saw what at first appeared to be an EXTREMELY large fireball/comet. I pointed it out to my companion in excitement, and he followed to get a better view. It was less than 2,000ft AGL, and AT LEAST from end to end, school bus sized. Moreover, as we sprinted about 40 yards to get a better look from behind my neighbors tree, I realized it was completely motionless. Not only that, but it was 100% not a comet. It was a bright crimson red rectangle facing West (since that seemed to be the front, not entirely sure) 'hovering' vertically, and tapered to a point or rounded point back towards the east side of it. As my eyes adjusted to what my brain was processing, I blinked and squinted to force the object to make more sense, but instead it flashed a subtle rainbow wave along its bottom end. We jokingly said "hello" and waved to it, trying to make fun of ourselves. Instantaneously, the entire motionless object disappeared. Not by leaving slowly, or fading away; but blinking out of existence. We thought the experience was over, then no more than 2 seconds after disappearing, in the same exact patch of sky, it reappeared, but as a lonely twinkle of light that looked like just a star. Initally in this form, it was very bright, then its brightness lowered a bit. However, it was clear it was the same object, just in different form. Not only because we could sense the invisible parts of the object that we could see when it was bright red, but we remained watching it vigilantly as this "star" rotated from a Westerly facing direction, to an Easterly facing direction, and remaining at around 2000 ft AGL---couldn't have been much higher, or faster than 120knots--- it ambled in a southeast direction over farmland, until it got too small for us to follow with our eye. It sincerely felt like when we said "hello" it reacted and tried to conceal itself. I know this is conjecture, but it was an intense feeling that I must note. The sky conditions were completely clear. The moon was a bright half moon in the Northeast, and Orion was rising up out of the eastern horizon to the right of the moon from our perspective that night. From where I stood, my best guess is this object was, at the beginning of the occurrence, at least 2mi to 3mi southwest. By the time we lost sight of it as it slowly trolled away as a star, I'd guess it was 12, 15 miles to the Southeast. Ryan Montgomery

Was taking pictures of the sky, while I noticed a bright light that was going dim, and then very bright again. The flying object began to hover in the sky without making any noise whatsoever. Next up several more smaller began to fly sporadically around the larger object, I originally saw. That is when they begin to go in directions that made absolutely no physical sense. I was unable to notice shape, changing of the primary object going from round hexagonal, and then to a sphere it had rotating lights, and then More became to follow flying by as if they were shooting stars, but they would return upward towards the original object. It wasn’t long after that we as a group saw airplanes, trying to go in the direction of where these objects were, but unable to keep up with them. This is all caught on video.

October 2, 2023 at 9:44pm CST: While looking at the stars I noticed an object stationary in the sky. I watched as it changed forms and rose higher without sound. This object went from what appeared to be a bright star, to several balls of light bright white then changing to a disc. This was then followed by many other objects smaller but similar in shape flying around the primary disc. These objects were flying In unexplainable ways, sideways then upwards then diagonal. This was witnessed by me, Brian Edward Griffin and my Sister Tara Swanson as well as my 3 nieces. We then witnessed airplanes flying towards this objects, the UAP’s would then disappear then reappear after the planes had passed. One object appeared to land behind what we call Welcome Mountain. A very large hill with a sign that says Welcome. This event went on for over half an hour.

Looking at the eastern sky, I spotted 2 flashing anomaly's. One much brighter than the other. The bright one was staying pretty stationary, while the dimmer one was kind of like flying erratically. The dimmer one then shot off and disappeared The brighter one stayed stationary for a little bit longer started to change colors the flat it flashed in the next time it flashed it was easily miles away from her originally saw it jarded around a little bit and disappeared itself I did get a 30 second video I was too awestruck trying to figure out what I was seeing to record the first part
