Highly reflective slow moving object.

Too high to see a shape but below the clouds. I took notice because the sun was reflecting erratically off of it and was very bright. Unlike it would on a plane. Though it moved about as fast a plane would be moving at that altitude so I thought ok maybe a plane until. It was heading west at first for about 1 and a half minutes then took a sudden turn to the north east for a minute. It then took a turn to the north east for a minute then again to the north until I could not see it anymore. Not 5 minutes later a military highflyer left a white stream across the sky headed the same direction. Not much of a sighting I guess but I really don't think it was just a plane. Wish I had more to report.
