This object did not move for long periods, it just hovered

On the evening of the 15th I went out to walk the dog around 10 PM. While I was out I noticed a light in the sky south of my home. I didn’t think much of it but I noticed it was bright white with red, yellow, green and blue lights flashing randomly.

As I watched I noticed that it was not moving. It appeared to be at a substantial height, at least 2000 ft. I brushed it off as an unusual sighting. I observed it for 15 minutes and it did not move. The next when I took my dog out at 9PM and the same light was south east of my home. I observed it for about 15 minutes again and it was stationary. All else was the same.

At 11 PM I took the dog out again and it was gone. When I got out to the driveway I saw it again. It had moved to the spot that I saw it the first night and remained there until I went back in.

Whereever it is spotted it remains stationary. Too high for a copter and too stationary for a balloon or plane.

It is cloudy today so I won’t! see it but if it comes back I will take movies.
