Edinburgh woman films 'spinning and floating' UFO in the Leith sky

An Edinburgh woman was left perplexed after an Unidentified Flying Object (UFO) was spotted “spinning” in front of her Leith home.

Jeanette Cousland, who lives by the shore, captured footage of a strange light “floating” and “spinning” in the skies on June 13 at around 1.48am.

She says that she is extremely intrigued to find out what the UFO was and added that it seemed to be “happening about every night.”

At first she thought it may have been Saturn passing as it was due to be visible in early June but later decided that it could not be due to the speed at which it was travelling and the time she captured her video.

On what she discovered, Jeanette said: “My first thought was, what's that floating and spinning so low in the sky? I’ve seen quite a bit of activity in the skies over the pandemic when they were supposed to be empty from aircrafts.

“I work nightshift and sometimes I see drones and other low flying objects.

“It could’ve been anything, I just caught a fleeting glimpse passing by my eye.

“Anything is possible, it could be extra terrestrials.”

When asked about whether she believed in aliens, she continued: “Im open minded about UFOs, anything is possible about spaceships, flying saucers from other planets.

“Extra terrestrials I believe are already walking amongst us, collecting information from human beings to take back to their base station.

“I believe they are intelligent beings.

“NASA knows there are happenings going on but they keep it quiet.

“It is possible that aliens have discovered humans on the planet earth even though we have not discovered their planet yet.”

In the video you can hear Jeanette saying: “There's one of them crazy objects in the sky.

“This has been happening about every night.”

Recently Edinburgh Live has covered several stories of what could be UFOs above the Edinburgh night sky.

On June 14, we reported on a couple spotting two floating lights adjacent to the moon in the skies above Meadowbank.

And on June 10 we reported on a vlogger who believed he had spotted a UFO in the sky above Arthur’s Seat whilst filming a Youtube video during the pandemic.
