| Description of Sighting | In December 2021, around 5:30 PM in Muuga, Estonia, my brother and I witnessed three glowing orange objects flying silently across the night sky, just above treetop level (estimated 15–20 meters high). The sky was dark, possibly clear or slightly cloudy. The objects emitted a steady, internal orange glow and had the shape of large birds—similar to cranes or herons—but were much larger and more massive. They flew in a coordinated triangular formation at a slow, stable speed. There were no blinking lights or metal reflections, and no sound was heard. The event lasted approximately 15–20 seconds before the objects disappeared behind trees. We both remembered this years later with matching core details (number, glow, height, and general behavior), though our perception of their exact size, direction, and color differed slightly. I saw them as deep orange, while my brother described them as yellow-orange. The actual hue was likely somewhere within the warm neon spectrum. |

| Witness Feelings | A mix of confusion, curiosity, and awe. Initially, I was unsure whether what I saw was real. |
| Witness Assessment | It did not feel threatening. The objects moved calmly and in synchrony, with no signs of aggression or erratic behavior. |
| Additional Information | This sighting was not previously reported. It was confirmed by my brother independently years later — he remembered the same core details (time, number, color, movement). We both recall it as one of the strangest and most vivid moments of our lives. While the objects resembled large birds, their behavior, glow, and presence felt unusual and unexplained. No photos or videos were taken, but visual reconstructions have since been created to illustrate the event. |
