Describe briefly the physical appearance of the object(s): At it's closest point, it was a structured craft of some sort. It had two orange lights in the rear, two "pillow-like" semi-transparent, soft-white colored things on it's underside. There was a pointed structure at the front, with a red light that sometimes strobed near the tip. There were other lights strobing at different intervals on other parts of the object. The top of the object was not visible, as it blended in with the black sky. It was hard to tell exactly what shape it was.

Describe briefly the location of your sighting: Right outside of town, on a road. Fields mostly, with a few trees lining the road. A few houses were on both sides, with empty lots between them. See Map

Where were you & what were you doing at the time: I received a phone call at home from my girlfriend
saying they seen the object south of Lafayette, LA. I immediately drove towards where they said it was headed.

What made you first notice the object: It was a bright, star-like object moving towards the northwest. I noticed a few bright flashes from the object every now and then.

What did you think the object was when you first saw it: I thought it might be a airplane at first, or a planet near the western horizon.

Describe your reaction/action during and after the sighting: I was pretty excited, very curious, too. I felt determined to get a better look.

Describe the object and its actions: When I first saw the object, it was in the NW and moving slowly in a NNW direction. I stopped my vehicle and looked at the object with 7x50 binoculars. It looked like a bright, reddish star or plane to the unaided eye. With the binoculars it was a round light with a smaller strobing light near one edge of it. I then drove several miles following the object and it seemed I was getting closer to it. The object moved along ahead of me but finally slowed it's NNW movement and seemed to be hovering about 15 degrees above the horizon to the west of me.

When observed through the binoculars, it seemed to be a structured craft. There was a round, green light the color of grass right next to it to the left of craft. This light seemed to be attached to the object by something. I flashed my headlights on and off quickly to attract it's attention. The object then started moving slowly in my direction (east), so I attempted to get where it would cross the North-South road I was on. I stopped and got out the truck and watched as the object slowly drifted over towards me and crossed the road I was parked on. The shape of the object seemed to resolve into several stobing lights, with the two "pillow-like" objects on the underside. There was no sound coming from the object, as far as I could tell.

The object continued to move towards the east and back towards town. It seemed to be only 300-500 feet in the air when it passed over me. As it got further away, it picked up speed and got lower towards the horizon. Several radio towers and a water tower were in that direction. As it neared these, it turned towards the south, and dipped down behind some trees in the distance.

How did you lose sight of the Object: It got low to the ground and went behind some trees.
