Locals were stunned when a swarm of what they said appeared to be flying saucers was spotted later that same night.
The clip shows dozens of bright lights shooting across the night sky as a couple discuss what it could be.
The man says: “You need to see this.
The woman replies: “What are those? Why are the birds shining like white gold?”
The video was widely shared on Instagram on 1 May, as reported by What’s the Jam.

“It’s a gaggle of geese that were on the ground feeding in a cornfield when they were forced to take flight because of the earthquake,” said someone else.
Numy remarked: “If I were an alien, I wouldn’t bother creating mysteries. I would just expose myself.”
Tim joked: “Is it a reveal party gone wrong?”
The earthquake took place around 6.10pm on 18 April.
