I faced the open window (security screen installed). It was a very, very clear evening - the first fine night following the heavy rains which Brisbane and south-east Queensland had experienced. I noticed an object in the north-eastern sky with blinking/flashing red, green and orange lights. Immediately I thought an aircraft was coming into Brisbane airport. I had observed this object through a particular diamond-shape section of the security screen. But I noticed that it never got any closer or moved out of my vision of it through that 'diamond'. I immediately got out of bed and went to the window to further observe. This object definitely flashed red, green and orange. It looked like a over bright star, but also seemed a little large to be a star. Whilst it didn't move any great distance in the sky, it seemed to be hovering in its own very tiny orbit. I was so intrigued by this sighting that I watched from the window for some time, then I went to the 2nd bedroom window, (also facing north-east) and I observed the same object, still doing the same thing. I moved to other windows of the house to observe stars in the sky, trying to reinforce my thoughts that this object in the north-east was 'more than a star' perhaps. At about 11.40pm-ish, I felt I had to report what I observed, so obtained the UFO Hotline number through Telstra information (1800........number). I continued to watch the object, but didn't observe anything different from first noticing it. At times, I thought I could hear an engine noise - like a helicopter or the like - but can't be definite as to whether the noise was emanating from the object or whether it was another engine noise from some other source. I climbed back into bed at 11.55. The object was still visible through the 'diamond' of my security screen. Then I fell asleep." Regards Diane Harrison
