Organge light that split into 3 then disappeare

I first noticed a large orange light in the sky north east of Battle Ground. The light was stationary for a few seconds then split into 3 balls, then back into 1 then disappeared. I had entered a similar siting on this web site on 4/27/04, but have not seen any since; however, there have been many similar sitings listed on this web site in this same area. Most are in April around the same time. Grissom air force base is in this direction, but the lights I saw last night where not close to the base but between Battle Ground and Grissom.
