We saw the bright lights and others over the the hills near the mountains

I went outside to bring my dogs in and saw a huge bright light near the mountain area east of my location. I could see this clearly from my yard. There was one above the trees and one in the middle, one in the sky over the big one that was low. The one overhead blinked red lights. The others were dim, but would blink whitish, green, lights. There were also two in the sky looking west from my back yard. They are bright with blue, red, and green lights mixed with white. They hovered there for about 1 hour and then dissappeared. There were planes flying around them for a while, I just wondered if maybe they saw them? Or why if they couldn't. My sons friend was sleeping over and I woke him and my son to see the object that was bright over the hills. I wish I could get an explanation of what they are.

NUFORC Note:

We do not know what the witnesses were observing, but we suspect they may have been "twinkling" stars. Just a guess. PD
