Occurred: 2022-11-17 01:35 Local
Reported: 2022-11-17 22:34 Pacific
Duration: 2 minutes
No of observers: 5

Location: Columbus, OH, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Lights on object, Left a trail

Erratically flying orbs were darting back and forth until they disappeared altogether.

Several people, including myself, watched as a girl scared hundreds of sleeping crows out of a couple trees about 150 feet away. I was taking photos with my phone as the crows flew from the trees. I saw one light, or possibly several lights close enough together that it appeared as one. They were yellow-green to green-blue orbs. I didn’t give it much consideration as anything other than a star, planet or plane at the time. I was primarily observing the crows and didn’t notice the light move or disappear or reappear again until I looked at the pictures I had taken. My phone’s camera is set to ‘live’ mode so that when the image is ‘clicked’ and held it plays a short video or gif. In those short clips the object darts in different directions, seemingly unrelated to the cameras directional changes and disappear and reappear in frame. Upon further review, it looks like two other faint, but related, objects are also present.
