Occurred : 9/2/2020 10:52 (Entered as : 09/02/2020 10:52) Reported: 9/4/2020 10:36:45 AM 10:36 Posted: 9/4/2020 Location: Naches Peak Loop Trail, WA Shape: Circle Duration: >1 minute
Please refer to my email - Subject: Pictures of an Oreo-Like Circular Metallic Flying Object and a Tiny Funnel Shaped Object. My main intention was to take a picture of the sun and the contrails of a jet. As you will see in the three images I'm submitting, there appears to be a circular object (oreo like) at the very top edge of the first image, and diagonally below it you will also see a tiny metallic funnel-like object that has an elbow end at the bottom. In the second image, the oreo-like object has now moved past the contrail, and the funnel-like object is no longer in view. The trajectory of the oreo-like object continued in the third image before disappearing entirely from my view. I've taken a total of 42 pictures, but they only appear in these three. I shot all my pictures in burst mode but I'm not sure if the attached images were taken in a single burst. However Date and time for all three images are the same: 10:52:16 AM September 2, 2020. What you see is what my camera captured. I'm not sure if what I'm seeing is a drone and I'm hoping you could help me identify them. I took the said pictures while hiking the Naches Peak Loop trail near Mt. Rainier in Washington with my wife. Thank you.
