✦ AI summary
FBI-UAP-D007 is an FD-1057 Electronic Communication (UAP Division), 4 pages, titled "Observations at [location, redacted]" dated 11/2024. This report is notable because FBI Special Agents themselves directly witnessed apparent UAP activity while visiting a residence to confirm prior reports and video from a witness/family. On 11/[date]/2024, Special Agents visited the family's home; while waiting outdoors, agents initially noted distant lights they believed to be homes/structures, and other lights roughly eight miles away of uncertain origin. About twenty minutes later, one Special Agent observed what they believed to be a UAP: a white pulsing light at the northern edge of a body of water, moving horizontally with erratic movement, that did not reflect off the water (suggesting a source over the wooded area to the north) and did not illuminate the ground or water surface below it; the light changed hue and then disappeared. Additional stationary lights and plumes of broad light followed by red or white flashes moving erratically before disappearing were also observed. The agent attempted to photograph the activity; five photos were taken but came out mostly blurry, and it was later determined a tripod or stable platform would be needed for the long camera exposures required. At approximately 5:15pm the residents arrived home; agents briefly went inside then returned to the patio. At approximately 5:30pm, two Special Agents together observed what they believed to be a UAP in the same location as the earlier sighting: a bright white light above a bright red light at the far end of the pond, hovering at approximately tree-top height, which moved quickly right to left, disappeared, then reappeared in its original position, moved quickly right to left again, and disappeared -- witnessed by both agents. Agents continued observing from the patio/backyard until approximately 6:10pm, went inside to download the most recent photos/videos the family had captured, and discontinued surveillance, departing at approximately 6:15pm.

Photos taken by SA [redacted] on 11/[date] 2. Photos taken by SA [redacted] on [date] 3. Photos taken [by] SA [redacted] on [date] 4. [Video/photos by] SA [redacted] on [date] 5. [Video/photos by] SA [redacted] [PAGE 2] Title: UAP Observations [at location, redacted] Re: 11/2024 Details: [continued on page 3] [PAGE 3] Title: Observations [at location, redacted] Re: 11/2024 On 11/[date]/2024, Special Agents (SA) [redacted] and SA [redacted] visited the home of [family, redacted] at [location, redacted]. The purpose of the visit was [to] confirm reports and video [previously provided]. [Agents noted] lights in the distance which [they] believed to be homes and other permanent structures. [Witness] also pointed to lights which [they] claimed to be eight miles away and could not be certain what those light sources were. Approximately twenty minutes later, SA [redacted] observed what [they] believed to be a UAP. In the direction of [the pond/property], SA [redacted] saw a white pulsation of light appear. The light appeared to be at the northern edge of [the pond] and began to move horizontally with somewhat erratic movements. The light did not appear to reflect off the water of [the pond], giving the possibility that the light source was over the wooded area to the north side of [the pond]. The light source did not appear to illuminate the area below it or the surface of [the pond]. The light appeared to [change] hue and then disappear. These lights did not appear to move as erratically and seemed to be more stationary. SA [redacted] also observed plumes of broad light appearing for several seconds before a flash of light, either red or white, appeared, and moved erratically before disappearing. SA [redacted] attempted to capture observed UAP activity and these photos are attached to this communication. Five photos were taken, however the photos were mostly blurry and do not provide much context. It [PAGE 4] Observations [at location, redacted] 11/2024 was later determined that a tripod or other stable platform would be required as the long exposure of the camera aperture would not yield clear images. At approximately 5:15pm, [the family members] arrived home. Agents and [family member] went inside briefly to meet them before returning to the patio. At approximately 5:30pm, SA [redacted] and SA [redacted] observed what they believed to be a UAP in the same location [as the earlier observation] that SA [redacted] had seen the possible UAP. The UAP appeared as a bright white light above a bright red light at the far end of the pond, hovered at approximately tree-top height, moved quickly from right to left, disappeared, then reappeared simultaneously where it had first appeared, moved quickly from right to left and disappeared again. Both Agents observed this activity. Agents and [family member] remained on the patio and backyard, observing activity until approximately 6:10pm before going back inside [the] home to download the most recent photos and videos [the family] had taken of activity behind [their] residence. Agents discontinued surveillance and departed [the] home at approximately 6:15pm.
