Slow moving, hovering low, just above the telephone poles and tree line. Solid black triangle with 3 lights on the bottom.

I felt my house rumble and went outside with my son and saw a large, solid black, triangle slowly moving East above our house last night. It was about the size of 3 small cars, and it appeared to be a flat triangle. It was moving very low, about 20ft about the telephone poles and tree line; we were able to see it clearly. I couldn't hear any frogs or crickets, which was abnormal. There was a slight whooshing sound when it was directly above us, but no sound as it went by. There were lights illuminated on each corner of the triangle. My son and I stood on the front porch and watched the triangle travel East, then come back West, back and forth a few times. Then we saw a small private plane come by, also flying very low, and then the triangle flew away to the North quickly; the small plane appeared to be trying to get a better look at it and scared it off. I took a picture with my iPhone, but the picture came out very blurry, which is strange, because the images before and after trying to capture the triangle were clear on my iPhone; possible interference.
