Nevada County, CA — A local pilot and amateur photographer has shared an exclusive photo with the Nevada County Scooper depicting an unidentified flying object hovering over Scotts Flat Lake located in the important California watershed of Nevada County, CA. According to the pilot, the object appears to be sucking water out of the reservoir.
The pilot, who chose to remain anonymous, said he was out on a routine flight late Friday afternoon when he spotted what he initially thought was another plane. However when he radioed the other craft for confirmation, it did not return his request.
“As you can see from the picture I was on my final approach to the Nevada County Airport when I spotted this red object,” said the pilot. “Then I noticed this ‘water beam’ underneath it. It kinda looked like a long, clear straw. So I radioed it to let them know I was around and they did not return my request, which is highly unusual.”

UFOlogists around the globe have suspected that visitors from around the known universe have been visiting Earth because the prominence of water on our planet. Some have speculated that spacecraft visit to “refuel” their vessels while others like local amateur cryptozoologist, paranormal investigator, SciFi Channel fan and amateur astronomer Keith Bradenshauer had this to say about the possible sighting.
“Holy cow. Finally proof that they’re using the Black Knight [satellite] to coordinate their mass ‘visit’,” said Mr. Bradenshauer using his fingers to form two quotes in the air. “I’m not going to say they’re here to steal our water, but they certainly aren’t asking permission to take it.”
The Scooper reached out to the Nevada Irrigation District who runs Scotts Flat Lake for comment, but no one returned our request for information. We can only assume that NID is aware of this invasion, and is ignoring it or powerless to stop these alien actions. This is consistent with other government agencies who refuse to discuss these events.
UPDATE: There’s been a second siting of the same unidentified craft by a different pilot:
Another pilot has come forward with photograph revealing a second Unidentified Flying Object or UFO over Nevada County. The pilot of the ultralight aircraft, who had traveled from his hometown of Lodi, CA to visit his Grass Valley girlfriend, snapped this exclusive shot of what appears to be the same red flying object over rural Nevada County.
“I was on my approach to the Nevada County Air Park,” said the ultralight pilot who chose to remain anonymous, “when out of the corner of my eye, I spotted this red speck. So I maneuvered my craft about to get a better look at it. It was moving so fast up and down. I’ve never seen anything move like that. I managed to get one picture of it with my iPhone before it disappeared straight up.
The aircraft is similar to one spotted over Scotts Flat Lake late last week by the pilot of a Cessna 172 based out of Nevada County. That unidentified object appeared to be siphoning large quantities of water out of the lake before also disappearing straight up. This particular UFO did not seem to be doing anything other than flying around erratically fast.
“It was just flying around,” continued the pilot. “If I didn’t know any better, I’d swear it was having fun. A kind of UFO joy ride. Once you’ve seen something like this, you’re a believer.”
