Duration: 2-4 minutes
No of observers: 2

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

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

Many orange lights flying over Birmingham which dissapeared.

Just seen 10 or so Orange lights that my girlfriend notified me about that did not flicker high in the sky, i could hear a faint humming noise but the objects were so far away it was difficult to see let alone hear! The objects followed eachother in random distances/patterns but seemed to be at the same speed, they seemed to be moving quite quickly. They eventually went too high to see and we lost sight.

A few moments later an aircraft flew in a cross fire pattern to where the items dissapeared, it was blatently an aircraft as it had red + blue flashing lights.

Spoke to a few friends and some of them witnessed it too! Tried to get a photo with the only thing to hand - my cellphone but i don't think it caught anything but the black sky!
