I saw three black disk shaped UFOs moving at a constant speed during the day and they were at a very low altitude and moving very slow.

It was bright daylight when I saw three disk shaped craft in the air, against a bright blue sky. They were black and flying at a very low altitude. They weren't moving fast, in fact unusually slow for any aircraft, slower than even a bird would normally fly. One could say they were hovering but moving at a very slow pace. I was in the library studying for school at the time the sighting occurred. I just happened to look out the window I was sitting next to, and there they were.

I also saw a light on the object. I couldn't tell if there was a light on all three of them, but I only saw one light appear at a time. The light may have been blinking, or I may have only seen it every so often because the object was rotating. It was hard to tell what exactly happened although these objects were very close to me. They changed directions like this while all three of them remained in a very tight formation all moving the exactly the same speed. They did not slow down to move around one another or anything.

What really seemed out of the ordinary was that the objects were extremely close to one another. At times it was hard to tell if there was more than one of them; not saying that they became one at any point, but that is how close they were. The rotated around one another, perhaps in a circle each one taking turns being the lead craft.

They left my sight however as my view became obstructed by the edge of the building. I then moved to another window to see them, but I did not see them again.

Also peculiar was that there seemed to be more jets than usual after I saw the objects. Now I have just moved to the city about six months ago, but I know where the airport is and what it looks like when jets and planes leave for takeoff or come in to land. I saw three different jets, too far away to tell if they were commercial airliners or fighter jets, but it was very unusual. Usually when looking into the sky there may be one plane every ten minutes that one could see in the sky from where I was, for there to be three at once was very unusual. They were flying at seemingly random areas of the sky, not anywhere near where they would be if they were coming in to land or were just leaving the airport. The jets also seemed to be climbing in altitude at an unusually high pace, for whatever reason, but I do not think that commercial airliners would climb at this high of a rate. Whether this had anything to do with the objects I saw, I do not know, but I do know that this alone was very unusual.

After I saw this occur, I went out again to see if anything else was out there, but there was no sign of any strange objects. I then went inside while the jets were still flying above me.

I could not unfortunately get a picture of the objects as the camera I have on my phone is could not take a clear picture of the bright sky.
