Харбор-Бич, MI

United States

It was early morning and the sky was a bit hazy when nature called, so I had to get up to go to the bathroom.

Then I looked out the window, and there in the sky was this flashing light that was floating in the sky, and it was kind of spinning.

I thought it was a firefly, but it was much bigger, it had a kind of blinking purple color.

Beetles and other insects

Flying insects in photos and videos can be mistaken for UFOs.

Shooting can take place in the daytime or in the evening. When moving, the outlines of the insect can be both blurred and clear. Depending on this, dark spots or spots of bizarre shapes can be taken for UFOs. The video shows UFOs hovering in the sky, flying in a straight line or moving along a complex trajectory (for example, shooting May bugs near a tree against the background of the evening sky). Insects can be mistaken for UFOs by accident, or given out intentionally. At night, they can be highlighted by a flash.
