The extended visitation appears to be an observation only, they descend slowly through the night in my neighborhood.

I found these anomalies by accident during the day, circular lights jumping from cloud to cloud. My curiosity moved to night time observation, studying the stars above me to not confuse myself with anything else I may see.
There's a main formation that appears to be a ship, with many smaller ones, too many to count, different quantities each night. Also depends on the weather. A cloudy, rainy day has much more activity, than a clear night. They come down to about the tree line, its such a slow decent, you can observe a cluster of lights, not always circular. They will become larger, spread further apart indicating that's it's coming down. Then watching planes fly by helps me really understand how low the ships are. When they get close to the tree line, they drop what look like a mini shooting stars, right down to the ground. that's when I get nerved with activity in. This is a slow activity that I can never stay up for the entire event.... This goes on until just before dawn. they are very strategic and organized, using a perimeter of about 3-4 bright lights that guide the main ship down, when these lights descend, the main ship will. A gust a wind also follows with a calculated decent. I have many more detailed observations... been hesitant to share, worried I'm not seeing this correctly. I have support from my son only, we have shared some of these experiences together.
