Is this photographic evidence that aliens really do exist?

Just weeks after readers reported seeing UFO's in the skies over Slough one family has snapped and videoed some eerie goings on in the night sky in Datchet.

As the picture and video show there was a strange procession of lights travelling slowly over Datchet on Saturday.

The Datchet resident who spotted the strange phenomenon was putting out his rubbish at about 10.30pm when he saw the lights and called his 13-year-old son out to have a look.

Unwilling to be identified for fear of being abbducted by aliens he said: "There were very bright lights in the sky, moving slowly, and then they disappeared. We rushed out and took some photographic evidence."

His son said: "I was wondering what it was. I was a bit puzzled and scared."

    No. It is a black square with a tiny red mark in the middle of it. Which i thought was a mark on my screen.

    I saw exactly the same thing about a month ago in Maidenhead. The light's had an orange tint and moved slowly up and down, very high up then one by one disappeared. That was about 11.30pm, I went back the following morning on the way to work at about 7.30am and there was nothing nearby that it could have been like cranes or buildings etc. Spooky!
