Duration: 45 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Vestavia Hills, AL, USA
Location details: I’m the backyard of a house near commercial development that has a good bit of parking lot lighting.

Shape: Formation


Strange gray object that seemed like a formation of many objects that changed shape as it moved

Twenty minutes ago I went out to look for meteorites since the sky is very clear. After about five minutes, my eyes had adjusted to the darkness. I had my back to nearby parking lot lights so I could get the best view of the sky. I hadn’t seen any meteorites yet it was easy to spot constellations. While looking toward the Pleiades, I saw this gray, wedge-shaped object moving from SE to NW. It seemed to move and change shape subtly like a formation of birds would fly but it was obviously not birds. It appeared that this object or formation of multiple objects was being illuminated by the lights from the nearby commercial development. This object drifted to NW as if it was caught in a sea current. It did not travel at a constant rate of speed. After less than a minute it faded out of view. After pondering what I had just witnessed, I noticed a commercial jet approaching from the same direction that the object did. From looking at FlightAware, this was FDX1200, a 767 flying from Ft. Lauderdale to Memphis. The object flew much faster that the jet did. The width of the object was about four to five times the width of the 767. It seems that the object was at a fairly low altitude, maybe 1000 to 2500 feet. The FedEx plane was at 36,000 ft. Minutes after the jet passed, a medical helicopter flew from the NW to the SE at about the altitude that the object seemed to travel. What seemed to stand out the most was how this object moved and changed shape along the way, silently like a gray ghostly cloud on clear, cold night.

1 hour Vestavia Al UFO sighting shape shifting reddish color

Looking at stars, noticed slightly off color yellow/orange tint- distinctly different. Emitted a pulsating light and would go from a distinct star like dot to a chevron, went from pin point light to chevron changing with pulses to a fainter much less intense yet larger oval transparent light which would blip and fade away- but it kept coming back into view. I kept comparing it to the stars to convince my self it was different and it definitely was. The most interesting feature was the way it moved, it seemed to pulsate to the point it seemed as if it was shaking and it would distinctly move west to east, south to north, at times it would move in semi circles, then hover in a semi Circle or crescent. It would intensify to a dot and left right up down but stayed within the rectangular view of my iPhone 7+ on video.

Oh yes- I have about 10 minutes or more of video and photos. The photos on the iPhone r shot in 3 second moving intervals. I got pics of the intense dot, the larger vapor like semi transparent glow and I even got several vapor like streaks with the camera- something I did not see with my eyes, but the camera picked it up. This thing would appear, move about in eradicating movements, fade in, fade out, go from the intense dot to the larger semi transparent glowing circle or oval, etc. This went on from about 3:30 am to 4:10 or so. I kept using my camera flash to flash light toward it hoping it would come down in altitude but it did not. I hope I can post my pics and video, if not I'll post to UTUBE under Vestavia Alabama UFO 3-2017

Duration: 3 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Vestavia, AL, USA

Shape: Rectangle


I saw a very eerie flying rectangle, moving smoothly and silently.

I walked out of a restaurant. A thunderstorm with possible tornado activity was heading our way, so I looked up at the clouds. I clearly saw a rectangular craft, about 800 feet up. It was moving towards me from east to west. It crossed hwy 280 then turned abruptly left (south) and paralleled hwy heading south. The craft appeared to be about 20 feet in length and about ten feet wide. Might have been a hover craft or alien drone. Completely silent made a sharp left turn more like an abrupt change of direction. Craft was moving.slowly. Oddly i seemed to have a mottled coloring almost like camouflage.

I had an uneasy feeling as i observed it. A mild sense of dread.

I'm a veteran with much experience with military craft. We have nothing like this.
