On Monday, August 19th, at somewhere around 10:00 pm in Alpine, Texas. Me and two friends had stepped outside for a cigarette. As we normally do we lay on our backs and admired the night sky as there is very little light pollution where we're from. Me and one of my friends both at the same time verbally exclaimed at something we were seeing. It appears to be an almost bird-like crescent shaped object moving through the sky. It was invisible but we could still see it. It was almost, cartoonishly invisible as the outline of it was pronounced but the inside of the object was invisible. It seemed almost as if it was like a magnifying glass, warping the view of the stars above it as it traveled. It was completely dead silent. I'm unable to determine what it's elevation was. I saw it for 5-7 seconds, then lost track of it when I stood up to see it better. My friend claims to have seen it continue flying then disappear into the horizon. Had my friend not seen it. I'm almost certain that I would have dismissed it. But now I'm inclined to believe that it was some sort of flying object. Whether it was government technology or an alien spacecraft, I am unaware. All I know is that I did see it.

That road is mostly flat coming into and out of Alpine. It was about 445 AM and my girlfriend noticed that there were lights behind us. One would pop up, disappear, then another appear of a different color, dim, flutter and then disappear. Another set would pop up, dance in the background, flicker and then disappear, I watched them too. she was pretty spooked. this happened for about ten minutes. During that time we almost hit a rabbit and then within a few minutes almost hit a deer. Between all of that the lights eventually disappeared. They were not car lights. It felt like something was trying to get us to pull over. we didn't even pull over and kept going.

Lights seen over deer feeder shot beams down to the ground at some javelinas feeding.

I lived in far west Texas, namely in a small town named Alpine. Alpine is situated in Brewster County and the area spans over 6000 square miles. The area is sparsely populated and is part of the Chihuahuan desert with mountains and very rough terrain. Brewster County borders Mexico, namely the state of Chihuahua. I was employed in law enforcement when these events were reported to me,  During my tenure I saw many things that I could not explain, mainly lights and possible aircraft that did not resemble conventional vehicles as we know them. In the years between 2009 and 2012 I was contacted by a couple who ranched south of Alpine and had been in that area for many years. I  cannot reveal the exact place because I have not received permission from the reporters to use their names, nor their exact location where these events took place. What the ranchers reported were beams of light coming down by a deer feeder where wild pigs would congregate to eat corn. The wife was an avid hog killer and she used trail cams to keep a count of the wild pigs. In the photos there are a what appears to be either 8 windows or light hovering over the deer feeder. In other photos there are beams of light coming from above, as if tracking the pigs.
The wife reported to me that the lights seem to appear from Fall to Winter only. No formal investigation was conducted, but the last I heard they still occur. The ranchers denied any knowledge of abduction or missing time.

Choey Mil...
this is about video number 10. 
i'm tired of filming this thing.
I need a telescope with a video camera.
I can see it wonderfully with 60 x 90 binoculars, with all of the lights very clear , like a Christmas Tree. This video does not do it justice. At All.
i'm frustrated with this camera and my equipment limitations.
Mufon is not really giving me any answers or even more than an initial response.
its been in the South and in the East, and it is "something" that can be seen and photographed and videoed and explained...
I just dont have ANY input or help with this.

What the Heck IS IT ?
Why is it not all over the news?

Is it something simple?

If so then PLEASE someone tell me what the Heck I am seeing and filming.

If ya say swamp gas reflecting off of Venus...
i will laugh but then block ya  :)

tweet: Wtf did anyone just see those 3 red lights disappear? In the sky #Ufo #SanAntonio
they were in a diagonal line

MUFON report: ... My eyes were drawn to 2 blinking lights that seemed to be out toward 118 North. They were far apart but perfectly in line with each other and kept blinking red, not at the same time and not in any pattern that I could notice but like they were blinking at each other. ... They were perfectly motionless for about 3 full minutes, just blinking red. No movement whatsoever. Then, they just faded away. ... They were already there when I stepped outside. I will also add that there was no sound, but I attribute that to them being so far away ... This morning I called our local municipal airport to inquire about the lights, and asked about government drones. The man I spoke with confirmed that drones don't fly this far inland ... he did state that what I probably saw were helicopters but they don't usually fly in pairs or in groups of more than one around here. He also confirmed that there was no air traffic ... he didn't want them [drones] here. So, I have been left baffled. When I first saw these lights, I immediately dropped the broom I was holding, turned off my porch light and stared stunned. We live in a dark sky community and I know what airplanes look like at night. This was something I had never seen before and could not take my eyes off of them. My heart began beating quickly and it just left me kind of numb and in deep thought the rest of the night. I've also had a headache (even as I type this), ever since coming back into the house last night. ... I do live near the airport and I am the wife of a border patrol agent, ... I have a friend who saw a very similar event about 2 weeks ago.

MUFON report: I thought to myself "Is that star moving?" ... there were 3 stars in a triangle pattern, the top right star all of a sudden started moving. ... I didn't see any clouds at all and thought it was strange but it must have been a satellite. but right after it disappeared I noticed another one moving in the same direction same same level as if it were following the first one and disappeared just about the same spot. ... they looked just like all the other stars in the sky. ... I found a post from someone online that I believe saw the same thing. UFO blogger site I think. ... believe I was looking in the direction of Alpine ... I had gone inside and posted it on Facebook that night as well.The post is still there

MUFON report: Took photo of severe storm. Nothing was visible to the eye. Didnt notice "lights" until later when looking at pic.
