Orbs. Were you near a graveyard?

To me it looks like possibly two objects emitting light and the triplet effect is unexplained or possibly diffraction? In any event, the "triplets" seem, at first, to be equidistant but the separation between them increases when they start to zoom off the screen. I'd go with UFOs.


More than that, Mr. B... looking at it frame-by-frame, at 4/5 the left cluster momentarily stops completely while the right cluster continues and moves closer... and the clusters alternate one above the other... Finally, I don't see any indication of wind...

A bug dancing around in front of the IR light source very close to the lens.


That's a logical explanation... but doesn't explain some of its movements

Reflections into the lens. The light spots appear to be in front of the tree not behind it.

Seems simple to me. An unidentified object that appears to be flying by.


Possibly "tourists" inspecting the armadillo- like a drive-thru zoo....

Definitely a UFO. They are looking for you.


Quite possibly, Ron... I've ordered an armadillo suit...

I've seen similar things on my doorbell camera and another security camera in by back yard. A very fine fiber such as a spider web is drifting around right in front of the IR light and lens. I know that's what mine are because occasionally the spider shows up on the camera, tending his web.


Yup, they look like things floating in the air.

My guess it’s the armadillo’s eyes as the motion of the dots seems to correlate with the movement of the armadillo.


Maybe so Indi... poor little fella must now be blind, having chucked its eyeballs somewhere behind

It is a reflection (not a source) of something since the light goes in front of the trees as is slide off to the right.

…I’m going to go with the headlights of a vehicle coming up the driveway over a little rise in the road…reflecting head lights off the house window panes…(one window with divided glass) reflecting off the camera lens as it drives by…and I believe that we are not the only ones out there…!


Yes! No doubt, SkyKing, reflections by Rube Goldberg!

... other than an unconcerned armadillo, I haven't a clue.

Last February I left a "trail camera" at my father's house... I expected its batteries to last a month but ten second clips of cats- plus a few deer, 'possums, birds, sixteen days was all it could squeeze out. But this clip is a quizzer... it is SOOC, I've done nothing to the file.

Whaddayathink?


Sure looks like distant car headlights and some diffraction going on here. Just gotta luv that cute critter.

What's the date of the clip in question (too big for me to download)? Does it possibly correspond to the April 27th bright meteor pass over Arkansas?


February 27th... the displayed time is one hour off- it should be 18:33:32 (no daylight savings time in Feb) so, two months before the meteor...
