Large shiny object high in the northern sky heading east.

I was watching a bald eagle flying from west to east in the northern sky when I noticed in the northern sky high above the eagle a shiny golden brown cylindrical shape with what looked like large black rectangles on the side! It went behind a pair of tall pine trees that were blocking my view and never showed itself again! I stayed out there for about a half an hour searching and searching but never saw it again. No sound and no jet stream! It was a sunny day with no clouds around! Now, I live right next to a large National Guard training facility but there was no activity to speak of that day! No airplanes and no helicopters! No movement of any kind! Never seen anything like it before!
