Clayton Ontario February 4th 2009 9:15pm

My wife and I just witnessed a brightly burning object heading west over Clayton Lake.We live on the southeast shore and watched a light which seemed to change from white to red on the other side of the lake move slowly away from us heading west until it dropped below the treeline. It did not appear to have any flashing aircraft lights and it moved away very slowly as if it were a very slow moving helicopter. It did not look like anything I have ever seen before and it was too windy and far away to hear if it made any noise. I wonder if anyone else witnessed something strange in the sky as well over Lanark County at this time.

Our thanks to the witness for sharing this experience with us.
