Duration: 40 seconds
No of observers: 2

Location: Wolverhampton (UK/England), , United Kingdom

Shape: Oval
Characteristics: Lights on object

Orange/amber light over Wolverhampton U.K

I first noticed the object from my bed room window, it was a very bright amber/orange coloured light that flew over the houses situated opposite my bedroom window. It was not pulsating, and i am 100% sure it was not a plane as there was no sound or blinking lights. After viewing it for aproximatly 10sec from my bed room window, it flew out of sight at which point i ran down stairs and into my back yard to witness the same object traveling in a westerly direction.My mother also witnessed the bright object in the back yard. We watched the object until it disapeared into the horizon. I estimate the object was around 100ft above the houses, and was the size of a large grape when held at arms length(if that makes sense). I also noticed that there was a wind blowing in the same direction as the object was traveling. So could it have be some kind of latern being carried by the wind??? I dont know, but all i know it was very bright and moving fast. I am sure other people in the area must have seen it as it occured 7.10pm in the evening in a densely populated area. Just wished i could have filmed it on my mobile phone.
