At 8:45 pm my wife and I saw a bright red circular object in the WSW horizon. At first we thought it was a plane. It appeared to be moving in our direction, but it stopped and reversed its direction and arrived back to its original spot. The object then made all sorts of circular moments and weird angled movements. Next, it would rise up and then down again hiding in the tree line. It did this movement a couple of times before disappearing. I would guess it was maybe a couple miles from our location. This is the third time we have seen strange things in our night skies that we could not explain. If it wasn't for the fact we go outside to smoke cigarettes we would not have witnessed any of the events.
