NUFORC Sighting 62072

Occurred: 2008-03-01 14:00 Local
Reported: 2008-03-06 11:56 Pacific
Duration: 1 -2 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Chico, CA, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Witnessed unexplained multiple lights/orbs traveling east to west in clear daylight. First impression was that they might be balloons. However, a smaller group of two broke off from the others and traveled in the opposite direction at a rapid speed.

My neighbor was outdoors at the time, so I called out to him to confirm the sighting. He could not distinguish what the objects where, so he went to his garage and brought out binoculars. We both observed the objects through the binoculars. The objects appeared to be indistinguishable (reflected?) lights or orbs.

Unable to clearly make out forms we came to differing conclusions. He believed that what we observed must rationally be birds flying at high attitude. I could not come to a definitive conclusion, fore I have often in my 50 plus years observed birds in flight and never did they appear like this. I only know that I witnessed glowing lights or orbs in an asymmetrical formation. To me, they are unexplained.
