a bright colored lite appeard in the sky, to the left of the big dipper/ It would change colors and had bright flashes of light behind it, kind of like lighting or a strobe light was behind it. It would change colors from, a red with flashing orange, and then it would go to green with flashes around it. It made unbeliveable movemets, it would go in circles like the shape of a donut, then it would go from right to left and drop real low and then go back up. It dose not get any closer and it is not moving away. A few min later another one appeared to the far right of it, doing the same type off movements and color changes. We live way out in the country quite away from the town, and you can not see any lights from the city.

NUFORC Note:

Sighting seems not inconsistent with an observation of the star, "Sirius." PD
