Shape: Light

Orange and white light spheres in the woods

This event occured during the summer at my parents house in Stonington CT. I was outside one night smoking a cigarette and I noticed two orangeish / dark yellow lights, maybe 100-150 yards away, traveling together from left to right through the neighboring woods. One was slightly higher than the other, but both were relatively close to the ground around 8-10 feet or so, and the shapes were spheres. From where I was the lights looked like the size to that of a cd. They had a constant steady rate of speed which I would say was about 5 mph but did not illuminate the trees / wooded area where the lights were. They were just there and nothing else was lit up in the woods. I spotted the lights in the woods a couple other nights that week, except they were across the yard in a different locations, or were spread out- it was like the lights were there, and then they were gone. Each time I saw the lights it lasted about 5-10 seconds and then they were gone. I did not see any other shapes than that of light spheres. I thought it was strange, and told my parents. They did not believe me, but the whole thing was spooky.

A few weeks later it was late at night, around midnight, and I was watching tv. A very very bright white light the shape of a sphere and about the size of a tennis ball passed by in front of the window and was gone. This was different from the other lights I saw as they were orangeish, and this was a very bright light and scared the hell out of me. The room where the tv is on the backside of the house that faces the woods. I had the feeling that it was watching me as it went by. Curious if anyone else has seen orange & white moving lights like this in the area.
