Driving and saw a hovering object over residences.

I was driving westbound on W Napoleon Ave in Metairie, LA to Lafriener Park around 1:30 in the afternoon today (sun Feb 19th). It just hovered for about a full minute on my left side view and caught me off guard since I live near the airport and this object was very low compared to the normal flights lifting off or about to land. It was dark gray with no windows and no markings. It was not a helicopter since it has no propellers. No sound. The last time I looked back it went up further in the air a bit and then a slight tilt to its left side and then it was gone so quick.
