We camped with some friends this last weekend at Totogatic County Park near Minong, Wisconsin. It was a pretty cloudy few days, but the stars did come out on the last night. The sky lit up beautifully, and we were in a remote part of the wilderness away from much light pollution.

My wife took out her phone to take a picture of the night sky. She usually puts a social media post with pictures of our weekend, and she wanted to share the bright stars.

When she looked back at the photo she just took, she gasped and handed me her phone. There were two triangular shadow-like objects in the sky.

Both had the same shape and size and appeared to be heading in the same direction.

There could be a logical explanation. We tried to hypothesize what it could be, but haven't come up with anything that checks the boxes.

Could it be a glitch with the phone software, trying to render something that isn't really there? Is it two diving birds? Could it be ash from the campfire?

Here's what I do know: whatever it was was very fast, because my wife took two photos back to back. They appear in the first photo, but a split second later, they don't appear in the second photo.

We didn't hear any engine noise or sound at all. It was already during the quiet time at the campground, so we could hear just about anything.

The location we were camping isn't far from where an epicenter of UFO activity happened in the 1970s. I have friends who grew up near Gordon, Wisconsin, and talk about the weird stuff they've seen in the sky near the Bird Sanctuary, which is a few miles north of where we were camping.
