Two to three objects seemingly intelligently operated. Stopped then swelled in size with large flash and streak of light. Upon looking up while taking my dogs out to relieve themselves.
I looked up into the southwestern sky from my back yard. It is a rural area and very low light pollution which provides for a clear view of the nights sky. I was admiring the beauty of the stars when my attention was quickly drawn towards a small and very dim star.
To my surprise the star started moving from it’s Fixed location. It then stopped. Another started moving from its fixed location and then passed the previous star.
The objects were very high in altitude. I am not certain as to how high up. But further then most commercial airliners.
They were not airplanes. They resembled a star or a burning sphere. There were no trails on these two crafts that skated across the sky with ease.
I am not certain as to why I did this. But I flicked my lighter at the objects. The one that continued moving past the object/star that sat still.
Suddenly and very lively swelled to three times its size. Before! flashing and disappearing. The object that had sat for about twenty seconds without going dim or lighting up.
Finally started moving after the other object disappeared. It too then evaporated into nothingness almost like a dimmer switch was turned down. I was excited and stayed staring into the same sector, scanning with hope I would see something again.
To my surprise the was a large flash coupled with a streak across the same area near where I had just viewed these objects. It was what most people would consider a shooting star. But it didn’t really feel like it was that to me.
It was blue to white and shot very rapidly towards the same direction the objects had disappeared to.

lights, orbs, spaceships, and drones all following me for months Hello I have been experiencing strange phenomenon since last year. I thought it was spiritual and I even had a paranormal investigation. Lights have followed me for months and I thought it was spirits.
I have hours of videos of weird spacecrafts I will release whatever you need. They have now started flying over me while I drive everywhere I go. I am very worried.
I have a link I can send with over 100 videos and that isn't even scratching the surface. Please let me know what I should do. The objects are round lights that start small and disguise as stars.
when they approach they grow in size. There is 4 or 5 different crafts I have seen. some very large some small like drones.
There are two lights that always follow me and I believe they are a ship that is disguised as stars. The crafts in the videos seem round and some seem square and flat.

Update with proof and recordings and pics! I was @ 455-515am walking to my deer stand in my back pasture, not paying attention to the sky behind me until a saw a flash of a shooting star in front of me. I got the feeling that gut feeling i was being watched, so I turned around and there was the bright orange light from several weeks ago I posted on here about. I immediately froze still with fear! I saw the light climb higher in the sky and then proceed to turn a darker orange and get bigger! I had my deer rifle and my cellphone and I started calling my husband over and over and over again but he was sound asleep and wouldn't answer my phone call.
I was so terrified that I was not going to teach my back door step in time. I ran into the house screaming at my husband that the orb was back and that it was directly over me after coming over the house into our pasture. I ran inside and started asap recording.
*what you will see is shocking! *I recorded for over an hour 45min! *I even talked to it, and it seemed to be intelligent enough to respond to my questions and requests! *You will see that everything i asked it to change color or shape it did! *maybe yall can figure out what shapes it showed me. *also when I would turn off the recorder to take pics I was in shock to see a bright solid yellow round orb at the end of my driveway as well as at my feet! The orb was a solid yellow (you will see), I also saw and caught several other colors like red, green, white, orange in the low of the woods across my driveway and even in the ditches! (You could not see them with the naked eye nor the video camera, *only the camera option on my phone! we first noticed the light and the horrible musty, wet dog, saturated urine smell when my deer disappeared for a week! The videos are long but you will need to watch them in full to see what I experienced! Please feel free to give me any advice you can.

Bright orange orb stalking my farm. We have had 4 incidents. It changes shape and colors as well as comes all hours.
October 31- November first week 2020 Ok so I have to post, bc this situation has become a little more scary. *2 weeks ago we had an incident at our new farm. Around 9pm I went to shine (flash light) the pasture bc we have had alot of deer in the area.
We feed them and its cool to show my little girl all the deer at night in our pasture. I spotted no deer but a bright light that was in the tree tops but it kept hiding behind the trees literally every time I tried to get a better look. (Almost as if it didn't want to be seen) pretty crazy I'm thinking during the time, as I try to rationalize what I'm seeing.
I call out to my husband to confirm that I'm not crazy but to see if he sees what I see. Which he does. But it spooks him so he goes back inside.
I guess that I should have listened to him bc after all I have been keeping up with Paulides. But the curiosity took my better judgment. I then witnessed what my brain rationalized as a shooting star, but it didn't have the path like a normal falling star, it went midway from the air, and then straight over kinda like a arch towards the light, 7 mins later another one did the same thing but this time it traveled vertical then horizontal to the light.
After keeping my eyes on the falling star looking lights the big light was gone. Now 2 weeks later Last night we were shining the pasture (this time with a new bigger spot light, it was around 9pm. I scanned the pasture with the light left to right, right to left.
Then left to right. Immediately a very orange sphere light turned on in the back left corner tree tops and it was very low, I'd say a foot shy from the top of the trees in the very back of our pasture and it started coming towards me (backdoor) I screamed for my husband and he came to the back door and saw it too and immediately yelled at me to close and lock the door, do not go outside. And to put away the spot light.
3 secs after he and I saw it it disappeared. 3am: I woke up, lit a cigarette at the back door, and grabbed the light to shine the pasture (I know stupid me,) I shined for deer again left to right right to left left to right (no deer) which was odd in itself. They are their every nite! Then like a light switch, the bright orange light appeared again, this time it was further than before and over the middle of the pasture and appeared higher in the sky.
It turned on then it faded off (only took a few secs) it did this 3 times! I went go my husband out of bed but it never came back on afterwards, he scolded me about opening the back door and shining the spot light, but it has us both kinda quiet and just in shock this morning. Kinda worried whats going to happen next? Nov 26 2020 Update with proof and recordings and pics! I was @ 455-515am walking to my deer stand in my back pasture, not paying attention to the sky behind me until a saw a flash of a shooting star in front of me. I got the feeling that gut feeling i was being watched, so I turned around and there was the bright orange light from several weeks ago I posted on here about.

(You could not see them with the naked eye nor the video camera, *only the camera option on my phone! 2 nights ago my friend who I posted on here back I.
April the recordings of the crafts and lights as well as orbs coming out of the grown and the chanting noises, called us bc I reached out to him bc of what I had experienced here. He told us that as we were on the phone he was experiencing as well as bid neighbors along of crafts and that his phone and his parents were doing all kinds of crazy stuff. The screens were very fastly going thru or scanning thru his contacts, texts, settings and the alarms in the house were going off.
His neighbor caught some wild and scary things on their cameras and it was so scary his friend went home and refuses to go out side at night or at dark anymore! I should mention that his neighborhood is only 2 miles behind our house thru the pine thicket woods behind out house which is where we first noticed the light and the horrible musty, wet dog, saturated urine smell when my deer disappeared for a week! He too mentioned that there was a very mu! sty smell during the incidents he was having! He worked in the military and years ago went into a megalithic structure where it was an ancient structure 16,000 yes old! He said that he had some pottery he got from there and since then this activity has magnified at his home! He has been in the hospital but was released 2 days ago and when it got dark that nite the lights and orbs showed back up with a vengeance! Though this time they are messing with his and his parents phones, computers, and now all of the pottery he had from the ancient structure is now disappeared! He also says he gets messages telepathically but that he is no longer scared but feels as if they are asking and guiding him for help. (I can't speak to much about him bc I'm not there) but his neighborhood has a golf course built on an ancient mounds! The videos are long but you will need to watch them in full to see what I experienced! Please feel free to give me any advice you can.

Extremely vivid flashing lights. Seemed to chase us, they would flash in succession, some would be brighter but whatever it was could move extremely fast, if you were in a concert stadium with all the lights off and a dozen people were placed at different distances away from each other and they all had a camera flash, this would give an idea of what it appeared to be (on a smaller scale) at some point I looked in my rear view mirror and could see two or three of the lights right on my number, I was at a speed of about 60mph the lights seemed to disguise what it’s true nature is. I’ve been on this earth 41 years and to this day that was the single most unexplainable thing or situation I’ve been in.
Nothing man made could move in such a way. I will never forget what we seen.

1 low flying craft at slow speed. Disappeared around 250 yds from me. Orange orb.
Grabbed binoculars and craft was covered in an orange glow. I keep looking into the sky and saw two morw of the same craft speeding about 10000' in a zigzag formation. This went on for 3 mins till they went straight up and I lost them.

Looking at the moon, Saturn, and Jupiter with my binoculars a craft moving extremely fast zoomed past my line of sight amd disappeared directly above my location. Maybe 50 yds away. This thing was moving.
Low altitude amd high velocity. Orange orb like craft. No noise or vibtations.
Was obvious it wasnt manmade. I live by airforce base and see craft all the time. This was not one of the airforce nor a drone.
It was so fast that I could barely keep up with it for more than 3 secs before it vanished out of nowhere. I felt as though they wanted to be seen. They were flying too low to not be noticed by people.

Not focused on the UFO I was walking along a path on the levee in Gretna Louisiana at dusk and taking occasional pictures of the city skyline. We’re looking at one of the pictures I take and there was an object in the sky that I hadn’t seen when taking the photo however it appeared when I looked at the picture.

I been debating should I talk about this topic for a very long time. I been thinking to myself I wonder what the people that saw what I did thought when they seen this. How could I reach out to them to even discuss what was seen because it was truly unreal.
Nobody would believe it but us. But as much as I want to talk about it it's not paying my bills like for real tho. And I'm not taking the risk.
I'm drug free person and will fly pass a drug screening with the quickness. So all these sightings on here have nothing near my sighting and the 6+ cars that I wish I could contact or knew in person I would cry. Its people that get paid to talk about these things and I'm bot one of them but one day I will and on that note I'm out until then.
You got the area now go see for yourself or try maybe it will see you.

Silver reflective object that immediately disappears! 1 shiny silver, slightly disc-shaped object that reflected the sun’s light. It could have been metallic. I thought it could have been some type of plane at first or possible helicopter due to it being closer to the ground than anticipated.
I attempted to dismiss this as something known. Stayed in place for approximately 5 seconds and then immediately disappeared without a trace. It disappeared faster than I could process what I had seen.
I contacted a close relative later that night and reported this UFO sighting. I was informed by the relative that the night before around 6:30pm in the same area they had witnessed an object flying straight up in the air which seemed to come from the ground.

What seemed to be a morning star dimmed the light and disappeared was in the car on my way to work heading north on Causeway Blvd in Metairie and I saw a star in the morning sky, my thought was that the star was quite bright, it was warm white light, then I saw that it dimmed the light and I could still see an object there, it was a little darker than the sky, it got brighter again, but then dimmed the light and disappeared. I was able to look at that spot for several more minutes before the car had to turn and object didn’t show again.

Orb like bubble floating in the sky during the day Out on a walk through the French quarter when myself and about 6+ people looked up in the sky at this floating orb. Everyone was intrigued. I knew immediately it was an ET.
I have since been doing further information. What I’ve learned about this orb, is that the ETs have gotten smart and don’t show their ships as much. They literally materialize into our atmosphere before showing their ship so that the air force doesn’t shoot them down.
I am a full believer in inter Leo gent life outside of planet earth.

While videoing lightning from my porch, I accidentally filmed a UFO/Orb flying over my house at an incredible speed. I was on my porch getting some video of lightning from an approaching severe thunderstorm. I honestly didn’t notice it fly by at the time because I was looking away from the direction I was filming.
My house faces roughly ESE and whatever this was traveled in that general direction from the WNW. Aside from some faint thunder, I don’t recall any strange noise at the time. Given the fact that it’s duration was about 1 second on the video and it’s distance traveled in the video is maybe 1/4 mile, I estimate it was traveling at 800-900 mph.
