Shape: Cylinder

Red Colored Cylinder approx 2000' to 3000' above ground, traveling slowly westward.

Red colored cylinder traveling east to west about 2000' above ground, maybe up to 3000'. No wings, not tail stabilizer, no sound, it was silent. Traveled a bit slow but steady, maybe about 80 or so mph, like the speed of a cessna 172. Completely red in color, nothing sticking out from the body of the cylinder, it was just a clean, red, cylinder. The time was approximately 8:40 am to 8:50 am. I was in my back yard feeding and watering wild birds. The red cylinder was distinct with no surrounding haze or aura. It was flying slowly east to west and with no sound or any engine noise. No other aircraft were around at that time. It seemed to be about the size of an automoble, maybe 20' or so long and red in color.
