Small dark object moving through the sky with speed

I heard a small single engine plane in the sky and was looking for that just outside my building. That is when I noticed the small dark object high in the sky moving northeast and appeared to be gaining in elevation. It was moving fast from my perspective and made some quick directional changes as it seemed to approach clouds higher in the sky. It was small and dark and was in my sight for about 60 seconds or less. Sun was out and this was easy to see even though it seemed far away. I was asked by my co-worker if I thought it was a drone and I do not think they go that high in elevation where I believed it to be.
(I did find the single engine plane headed southwest and at a low elevation and was probably a local pilot)

They're back and there's more

Accidentally captured a picture of a UFO, while focusing on amazing fall foliage. Disc shaped over the hills in Ellicottville, NY on 9/26/20 at 429 pm at the Ellicottville Dog park. Got two pictures at two different angles. Didn’t notice it until later. Black and/or Silver, must have been moving fast as it is the only thing in the picture that is slightly blurred.

Posted report. Then looked at a different photo, and realized I have one an hour later with 3 uniform objects higher in the sky, which blown up show that all have highlights on the left hand side as if sun is shining off of metal or something shiny.

Actually, looking closer at the cloud cover, there is actually 7 possibly 8 that are the same size and uniform in shape. The last photo is on the opposite side of the same ridge as the first 2 photos where one was lower and very clear in the sky. Freaky. Way too large to be drones. At least a mile away.

UFO stops by to see Fall Foliage

Accidentally captured a picture of a UFO, while focusing on amazing fall foliage. Disc shaped or might be cone as its slightly blurred, over the hills in Ellicottville, NY on 9/26/20 at 429 pm. Got two pictures at two different angles. Didn’t notice it until later. Black and/or Silver, must have been moving fast as it is the only thing in the picture that is slightly blurred. There were 3 of us at the time and people in the Ellicottville Dog Park, but I took the picture on the way in, and parked a distance away from everyone else. Based on the dimensions probably about 30-50 feet wide. Can't believe I didn't notice it at the time, but simply didn't look up and took a long range shot. Buggers.
