They were still there at 10.30pm that night, at one stage I felt I could almost touch them. They were completly silent and did nothing at all until they left that night."

Observation :

“I was doing a horse ride from Broome to Darwin from July to September 1994. To cut a long story we were floating some horses into El Questro Station across the Pentacost River at around three in the afternoon. The car and float was moving extremly slow due to the roughness of the road and we did not want to spook the horses. I was travelling on the back of the ute keeping an eye on the animals when out of the corner of my eye I saw what I at first thought to be three planes coming in low to my left.

I thought it odd because they were travelling really close together, and as I have flown planes before I know how dangerous that can be unless you are properly trained. The reason I thought they were planes was because of the red and green lights and as a lot of the very rich stay at this station I thought it might have been a private airfield they were going to landing on.

Anyway they came in quite low and then just stopped and hovered about 200 yards to my left, ovoid in shape (typical saucer shaped) with first red and then green lights travelling horizontally around the middle of the saucer. They were still there at 10.30pm that night, at one stage I felt I could almost touch them. They were completly silent and did nothing at all until they left that night.”

Description : No unusual movement except the coming in fast and low and then just stopping dead almost on top of us. They made no sound at all.

Other Witnesses : Probably about 30 or so at night when you could only see the lights, two other people were with me at the crossing. I dont know if they would want me to give you their names, unfortunatly my camera was in my other bag in another car on the way to the main Station.
