Duration: 5minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Austin, TX, USA

Shape: Sphere

I was headed for work and was dropping off my trash at the Trash dumpster and looked up and saw a Silver Sphere just hovering. It was a clear blue sky with a few white clouds passing by it. It never moved just hung there motionless. At first I thought it was a Balloon but it never drifted with the wind. The clouds were moving by it but it never changed position. I watched it for about 5 minutes curious at what it was and even looked for someone else around to show it too but of course no one was there. What struck me as being unusual is it was a Breezy day but it had no effect on it moving with the wind. I had to continue on to work so I never got to see it leave. It gave me kind of an Eeerie feeling because I felt it was watching me. If I had a camera and took a photo it would have been just a small silver dot on the photo with little detail. It was shiny and looked silver to me because it did have a glare off it. It basically looked like a Silver Ball hanging in the air.
