I spotted this flock of “line birds” while shooting photos two miles to the east of this location. I drove west and found them in a farm field. Where the line birds lead, I follow. This time they lead me towards the town of Viola.

Summary: Gold, yellowish light, extremely loud, visually NOT an airplane.

     “I arrived home and pulled in the drive around 10:00 like I do every night, I parked in the driveway facing west. When I looked to my left (south) I seen and unfamiliar light that isn’t normally there, it took me a second to figure out what it might be. The first thing that came to mind was a plane, but it didn’t feel right because I didn’t see the red and green lights, no strobe at the time, and the “headlights” were an odd gold, orange, yellowish color, I pulled my phone out of my pocket to record what I believed to be an UFO sighting.

     In the video, (viewer discretion advised) I tried to explain what I was seeing but it was the most unexplainable thing I’ve ever seen. When it came closer it moved in a direct straight path, maybe a mile or two over my head. As it came across the sky it turned a white strobe light on, and it seemed like it was trying to mimic a plane and it looked very similar to an F-86 Fighter Jet (Google.) It had curved wings and colorful, yet unexplainable lights that squared across the inside of the wingspan, the object was extremely loud and there were no other planes or helicopters around. As it flew away it started to look more and more like a plane, but the headlights were red.

     Later, the same night after the incident I witnessed I looked up to the sky to see if I could see anything else, being in awe. I had seen a white flickering light that appeared to be a star, until my uncle and I saw it make some circular motions and seen red flickers (3-5) around the “star”. Then I had seen another gold, orange, yellowish light without a strobe coming from the south heading north, the lights kind of shifted and it flew away heading east.

     What I had seen on 4-29-13 was unexplainable beyond belief, what my story tells may not be believable to some. Seeing is believing, I believe in what I saw.

     I have the video upon request.”
