Flying Saucers Are Nesting NowBRISBANE, Australia (Reuters)—Something new in flying saucers came Saturday from northern Queensland when a banana giower reported the saucers have been building nests.Three 30-foot nests of dry reeds in the swamplands of the Tully district, 950 miles north of Brisbane, are baffling investigators.George Pedley, 27, the banana grower who found the first one, said he saw a vaporlike saucer take off from it Wednesday. The second and third were sighted by cane farmer Tom Warren and school teacher Hank Penning while out walking.The reeds were flattened in a clockwise direction, and surrounded by healthy green reeds. The surrounding scrub was untouched.“I was driving my tractoron my way to my farm when I heard a loud hissing noise,” Pedley said.“Suddenly I saw a spaceship rise at great speed out of a swamp called Horseshoe Lagoon about 25 yards in front of me.“It was blue-grey, about 25 feet across and nine feet high. It spun at a terrific rate as it rose vertically to about 60 feet. Then made a shallow dive and rose sharply.“Travelling at a fantastic speed, it headed off in a southwesterly direction. It was out of sight in seconds,” he added.
