Invading Laguardia's Air Space.

On this day I had two encounters with these same objects. The first was in the late morning and the second in late afternoon. The morning sighting was as follows: I was on my way down my street when I looked up to the NE and spotted two identical ojects that were round and white flying side by side. One would pull ahead and then fall back. It did this a few time until both were again side by side and continued in a southerly direction. There altitude was apx. 1000 ft. and they were apx. 30 ft. in diameter.

My second sighting was in late afternoon while on my roof. Due to the earlier sighting I brought my binoculars. I was looking NNE when the same two ojects came into my field of vison. I put down the binoculars to get a better look since they were moving much faster then the first sighting, also they looked to be at apx. 1500 to 2000 ft. They slowly went into a westerly curve and were gone in seconds.

These objects were not birds, weather ballons or any other objects I have seen in the sky during my lifetime. Also I may add that I live below the flight path for commerical aircraft 5 mins. from landing at Laguardia Airport.
