NUFORC Sighting 145680

Occurred: 2019-04-16 11:15 Local
Reported: 2019-04-16 12:35 Pacific
Duration: 3 minutes

Location: Fort Myers, FL, USA

Shape: Orb

Sighted orb moving slowly over area South of Colonial Blvd and just East of Summerlin Blvd. Sunny day and was some reflection that attracted my attention.

At first, I thought that is a very slow moving plane (airport near to the East), but then it stopped moving and had a slight dip or wobble reflecting sun off a rim. I thought, helicopter, ultralight or balloon? But it stopped and was motionless.

I pulled my phone out to zoom and take a photo but the object disappeared? I searched the clear blue sky but couldn't find it.

About 20 minutes later, there was a high flying jet contrails above this location. I wished I was faster to get a photo.
