Bright orange, fast moving, silent object. Nothing I have ever seen before.

My family and I were returning from a fishing trip in Dunnville, it was around 9 pm on the evening of Sunday June 5, 2011.

We were traveling west bound on a level elevation on Mud Street, which is in Hamilton, ON, Canada, it was a clear sky with only a few white clouds in it. The sun was setting and my husband was driving and we were chatting about our fishing trip.

I turned my head to look out the North side window and saw an object in the sky. I said to my husband, "what is that? That is not an airplane."

I fumbled for my Blackberry to catch a picture and video of what I saw. The object was round and bright, it was orange in color. It did not have a trail behind it or lights like a plane would, it made no noise as it flew through the sky at a fast pace.

It looked about the size of a basketball, but I could not tell how far away the object was from us. It was moving south when, it suddenly stopped in mid air and switched direction and started travelling west towards the direction, which we were traveling.

As we turned to go onto the Red Hill, which is a small highway, I was able to film the object, which was now traveling south again, I did not see it change direction again as I lost it for a minute while I was getting my camera ready. I was totally in shock and a little disbelieve that I had seen this. I have seen other people’s video and pictures of ufo sightings, but really wanted to experience it for myself, as I am a strong believer in them.


As a teenager, I had a similar sighting but never shared my experience as I felt no one would believe me, as they do not now, the people around me think it was a plane or they just laugh at me.

The previous sighting I had was during the day, which is weird; I was waiting for a friend of mine to come out of a Zellers store. I was parked facing east when I looked out my front window and just above the building I saw a bright silver object, that literally appeared out of nowhere, and as soon as it appeared it disappeared just as fast.

Again, I was in total disbelief.

I find myself always looking in the sky in hopes that I may see something out there, and now that I have, I want to share it with everyone.
