No of observers: 1

Location: Natalia, TX, USA

Shape: Other
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Changed Colo

A bank of 2 rows of lights hangs in the night sky just above town for a witnessed ten minutes

I took the dog out between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. and was looking off across the field toward the town and in a spot just above the horizon.. hanging almost in the lights from the city was this bank of two lights about 6 lights in the top row and five in the bottom row they were suttly changing from a whitish color to a yellowish color. My estimate for distance from me would be about one air mile. At this distance the size of the bank of lights was about one finger(horizontally). I couldnt make out a shape behind the lights but it did have a kind of rectangular shadow behind the lights. I was out there for ten minutes and it stayed in the same place.. the lights kept changing colors and occasionally some would go dar then light back up again and start changing colors. I finally came inside because I got cold and next time I went out about 11:45p.m. It was gone.

This is the second time in 6 months that I have seen this same type object.

NUFORC Note:

One of three similar reports from the same witness from Natalia, TX. We suspect that she may be looking at celestial bodies, but we cannot be certain. PD
