Really just captured some amazing encounters..this video is long about 6 1/2 mins long. April 13th. Largo, Florida. I filmed a helicopter circling a orb right over my head, 5 times. Once I stopped filming, he still went another 4 or 5 passes. Please let all the wanna-be Neil DeGrasse Tysons to say it's Starlink or better yet, a solar or lens flare. No edits or cuts except when I zoom in and out throughout the clip. I probably have over 20 hrs of similar footage collected but haven't shared it yet. Let me know what y'all think?

Excellent catch! What happened ended up happening? Did the orb end up moving along?
Guessing you live somewhere south of Roosevelt Blvd and this was between 1:00-1:20am.
Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office was out there in their AS50 for an assault call. Active calls are listed on the PCSO’s website [here](https://www.pinellassheriff.gov/activecalls) and lists the approximate location they were circling as 16405 US 19 N, report# SO26-116867. I’ve got a screenshot I can append in here if it scrolls off the list.

Definitely not in your backyard or right over your head, and the helicopter doesn’t circle it at all if you’re talking about the light in the first 30 seconds of your video, it’s circling clockwise off to the East. I don’t do stars, but your orb doesn’t go anywhere or do anything the entire time.
