A Woodvale stargazer has captured a series of extraordinary photographs of what he says could be an unidentified flying object hovering above Bendigo.

Forty-eight-year-old Colin Davis told the Bendigo Advertiser he spotted the object last Saturday night (January 8) between midnight and 5am.

Mr Davis, who is a retired camera operator, said he was standing at the back door of his home, facing west, when he noticed something strange in the sky.

“At first, I thought it was a bright star and it appeared to follow the same path,” he said.

“But I kept watching and once the sun started to come up it remained very bright and I realised I was looking at something very different.”

Mr Davis said he had previously been sceptical of UFO sightings, but the extraordinary encounter had turned him into a believer.
