Full Report Text:
Triangle ufo following ct river up stream Noticed an object near local small airport, figured it was a plane, but realized there were no wings. Saw red light and said to my 11yr old here comes a helicopter. So we watched as it was coming closer, until it slightly turned and the Sun brightly reflected off its side and nearly made it invisible.
Realizing no sound, thought it was a balloon, but it was a perfect triangle. Staying at about 600' above ground, it traveled North filling the CT river, winding as the river does. Seemed to be mapping the river.
