Two amber lights that extinguished and then pairs of tiny silver lights moving away rapidly.

We were sitting in the backyard looking North by Northwest over the house. We saw two amber lights appear over the roof – one, then the other. Each amber light “burned out” and suddenly there were 6-8 tiny silver lights that then moved away quickly from the location of the amber lights.

They moved out in all different directions, but went in pairs. The pairs stayed relatively close together, but did not follow a specific formation. The tiny silver lights moved VERY quickly across the sky – much more quickly than conventional aircraft, and with no noise. The silver lights blinked rapidly. The lights moved out of our range of vision after approximately 5 minutes. We watched the pairs as long as we could. We did see 3 different airplanes in the sky and were able to judge the speed against the conventional crafts. It did not appear the airplanes were chasing the lights, however, one craft was near the path of one pair of the silver lights and seemed to be on a similar flight path.
