SIGHTING: BOISE, IDAHO (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I was walking the dog on a bright clear day and noticed a drone fly over at several hundred feet in altitude and then hover in place. i live near a soccer complex, so drone activity is not uncommon as people practice their flying skills. as i observed the drone, i noted three whitish objects at a much higher altitude in my field of vision. i at first thought they were birds as the objects were circling in a tight pattern, but the altitude seemed too high for birds and i could not make out the shape of a bird. one of the objects seemed to take the lead while the other two followed. they continued to circle in a pattern as they drifted towards the northwest. after a few minutes, the objects then flew away towards the northwest in a diagonal formation at the speed you'd expect from a high flying aircraft. there was no jet noise and the circling patterns flown were too tight for fighter aircraft. i checked the flightradar24 app and there were no aircraft in the area. the objects were too far away before i thought about trying to film them.
