I know it's a long shot, but I wonder if anyone might have an idea of what this thing is. One of the cameras captured this in the wee hours this morning. Weather conditions at the time were 29 degrees Fahrenheit, 3 mph wind from the northwest with gusts to 6 mph, humidity at 66%, pressure steady at 30.25. The camera is facing roughly east, so the wind was basically left to right across the face of the camera.
The initial view shows a lot of dust or insects or something flying about in random directions. That's pretty normal. But after a few seconds, a "stack" of lights appears that does not act like everything else. It seems to fly with intention, investigating trees and flying around behind and between them. It also seems to emit its own light (rather than reflected light from the camera). It maintains the same shape and orientation throughout its movement.. I tried slow-stepping the footage but couldn't get anything clear, the best I got was three "bars" of light. It does not appear to be making any sound.
I've spent many a night out in the woods and fields, but have not seen anything like this. Granted, the camera probably sees it differently than my eyes would have, but still, I don't know what it is. Do you?
Here's the video:
And here's the best frame I could capture as a still.
