2014-03-30 - Sumner, WA - Light

3 Bright White lights or one bright light jumping around.

Last night, March 30, 2014, about 8:30pm, I was checking the sky, as I often do. The sky was dark, not raining and from what I could tell – very sparse clouds.

I did a scan of the sky. As I began to turn away from the slider door, something flashed very brightly in the sky. It was a white light and looked like it blinked red as well. I figured it was a plane but I keep my binoculars next to the slider door so I grabbed them. It took me a few moments to find it again. Once I did, it seemed as though it was not near the same area as I had first sighted it.

So I have the binoculars up against the glass for stability and to help from letting light onto the door from the living room. I am watching and suddenly it/they begin blinking in different areas. It/they were maybe below the flight path or else it/they were further away–it was hard to tell.

I got excited because I was stationary and it/they were jumping around, it seemed as though there could have been three or else it was one and it was jumping around. The lights seemed to be very bright white light that really shone a ways, I believe that I seen a blue light at one point. I went outside (had to have my daughter hold the kitten so that she wouldn’t get outside) to get a better look.

It/them did seem further away but still jumping. I had to go back inside because my daughter yelled at me to come back in because the kitten was going crazy and wanted outside.

The whole sighting lasted about 15 minutes.
