It’s afternoon, in Angola, Ny. My father tells me he visited a neighboring town, Dunkirk, and on the way home he had seen a shiny metallic non-moving object in the sky. He alerted my sister, and he then saw it vanish in the blink of an eye. He tells me this, i grumble " i’ve read and read and watch for something like that every day and on a whim my 71 year old father looks up in the sky after a day of fishing and sees something. He believes it isnt a plane or copter, the way it reflected, so round and glowing, and how it just vanished was very different.
4 hours pass, and i’m taking my girlfriend and her cousin to get some icecream, and i head into Dunkirk. While driving on the main road, rt 20/5, passing a local hospital, i see a small bright light as well. Trying not to drive off the road liek a fool, i’m takin quick glances. I had originally thought it was a star, but it looked like it was in the atmosphere, not in the heavens, so i alerted my girlfriend of it, and she sees it as well. It hovers there (as the ice cream shop is 2 minutes from the hospital) and we sit and stare at this thing. It’s definitely inthe atmosphere, u can see the clouds go behind it and past. It was a circular object, metallic, and very bright, like the material itself was giving off the luminescence. I sit and watch, they get their icecream. I curse at myself for _not_ bringing my digital video camera EVERYWHERE i go. they come back to the car, its still there. After a few minutes of just staring at it, it stops hovering, it moves a bit to the left, then to the right, hovers, then goes behind the clouds where i cant see it anymore.
This happened yesterday around 4pm with my father and about 8/8:30pm with me, my girlfriend and her cousin. Being a ufo enthusiast, i’m used to being let down when it comes to seeing things in the sky, OOOH what’s that… oh… a plane- stuff like that. So to sit there for several minutes watching it hover there, just blew my mind.

There’s an air show in batavia this week, should be a lot of old metallic, slow flying planes… maybe this UFO will be there?!
Then again, I saw one in Arizona a few years ago… They _are_ out there. Keep the camera ready for next time!
