1995 August - Ottawa, Ontario



I actually live about 50 miles west of Ottawa near a small town called Almonte. During a warm summer night last August my girlfriend and I were sitting beside a bonfire in my parents backyard when I saw a bright light just above the treeline of the forest which surrounds pretty much most of the house.

The light looked like a single headlight of a car except much larger. It rised slowly straight up for about 5 minutes until it was well above the treeline. At this time it darted up and to the right and then stopped for approx. 10 seconds. It then darted left. This moved faster than anything I have ever seen before in my life. When it darted all you could see was the stream of light following the object. You could not see the actual single light until it stopped moving. After it darted the 2nd time my girlfriend and I ran up onto the deck which faced the same direction. I left her out there (bad move) while I ran inside and got my folks. When I came back out (she wanted to kill me) the object was almost directly above the house at an elevation of about 1000 ft. and the light had dimmed. It then flew directly above us and over the house very slowly with no sound what so ever.

From what I could see it was circular however I could only make out ther shadow of the object as there was hardly any light. The lights in which I could see when it passed over was the dim headlight and two lights on the bottom. One green and one red. That is my encounter. About three years ago a UFO touched down right outside of Almonte and the story appeared on Unsolved Mysteries.
