01-02-2013: Blue UFO Lights Over Berwickshire, UK
New pictures of the strange blue object spotted in the Berwickshire night sky last month have added another layer of intrigue to what some say is a UFO mystery.
Paul Taylor was driving home from Berwick to Duns on February 1st 2013, when an unusual patch of light in the dark sky caught his attention.
He stopped near Edrom to take four pictures with his digital SLR camera, but it wasn’t until he blew them up on his computer a week later that the blue object framed by the patch of light stood out.
There
has been lots of speculation about what was in the sky that night, but
no definitive answer. John Robson of Coldstream was walking his dog up
to Coldstream Mains Farm at about 8.45pm when he saw what he described
as “a large orb”. He said it was a distinctive, lime green colour but
changed to completely white before heading off silently to the north.
Several drivers in the Duns area also reported odd lights in the sky
that night.
Some
say the so-called ‘UFO’ was one of the coloured lights set up around
Marchmont House for the Berwickshire Hunt Ball. Others believe it was
the Northern Lights. Paul wouldn’t like to guess, but hopes his picture
will help shed some light on the mystery.
He
added: “When I read in the paper that others had spotted strange things
on the very same night it made me even more intrigued. The pictures
might be of the same object others spotted that night. If it was a
helicopter you would be able to see lights. But there are no lights.
“I have no idea what it is.”
