A Brief Sighting in Buga, Valle del Cauca, Colombia

Hello Martin,

Thanks for sharing your link. As much as I listen to your show and spout-off about UFOs in group messages/online, I shouldn’t worry about anonymity. Haha, but I understand its necessity.

Sadly, I do not have pictures, only a brief recollection and a corroborating witness (that does not speak English).

First, I’ll provide some quick back story. I love South America, and Colombia in particular, as the taboo nature of ET/UFOs is much less than home in the States. Many people aren’t exactly, chomping at the bit to share stories or talk on the subject, but many will openly admit if they’ve seen something, or at the very least, NOT ridicule an individual immediately. (ITS DELIGHTFUL! haha.)

I was riding my moto/scooter through the streets of Buga, a sleepy rural community about an hour outside of the nation’s third largest city of Cali. I went to pick up my girl friend from her night class at the local university. She got out of class a bit late that evening, around 9:30. I was waiting for her on my moto, playing on my cell phone outside the school gate. I greeted her and as she climbed on my moto and put her arms on my shoulders, she paused for a moment. She pointed up in the air, and said rather calmly in Spanish, “well, there is the UFO you are always talking about.”

We gazed upwards at an angle, (I am unsure how many degrees) off to the South East direction, and there against the backdrop of a dark evening sky was what seemed like a cluster of objects, in the shape of a LARGE, dark triangle. No lights, No noise. The object, or objects, moved incredibly slowly and was relatively low in the sky, far too low to be an air plane.
I recalled a particular brown shade to the cluster, or object, but my girlfriend disagrees and recalls it being a dark triangle. We stared and squealed with glee, I fumbled in my pockets for my phone, trying not to break my gaze of the object. As it floated slowly, and soundlessly off into the distance, a building blocked my gaze. I gasped, looked down to pull out my phone, and told my girlfriend to hang on tight we were going to try for a closer look. We took off on my moto, heading southeast in the direction we last saw whatever it was, but within moments, as we passed buildings and finally reached a clear roadway, we had lost the object(s).

I am no aviation expert, solely an arm-chair ufologist, but I know it was NOT a plane. Perhaps a VERY LARGE flock of birds, or a cluster of dark balloons, I really cannot say anything for sure. But it was LARGE, LOW FLYING, SILENT, and TRIANGLE shaped.
Many of my local friends have told me, (after I bring up the subject) that the Cauca Valley, and this rural community sees OVNIs or UFOs relatively frequently.
