Orange reddish object and white lights observed for 45 minutes.

About 10 p.m. on the night of Sept 27, 2016, I was in my back yard smoking a cigar and watching the sky when I noticed an orange reddish light to my West to a little Northwest streaking down from high in the sky to down low in the horizon. The object began to move back and forth in a way that was not conventional away from me until I could no longer see it.

Then another identical light streaked down and did the same thing as the first light and after I could no longer see that one a third one streaked down and did the same as the first two, each time this happened it took maybe 10 seconds each at most from streaking down, dancing and disappearing. Then I saw nothing for about 10 seconds and I threw down my cigar and rushed into my house to get my phone to see if I could get any video of this.

I ran back outside into my back yard and waited about 1 minute and the light returned but this time suddenly appearing motionless like a star in the horizon and then moving down low like before but instead of moving into the distance away from me the light danced up and down and back and forth sometimes appearing in two places at the same time. I tried to shoot video but I can see nothing on it but lights from a manufacturing plant across the street and some traffic.

After about 15 minutes I then noticed to my Southwest a group of 3 white lights appear and streak across a small portion of sky and immediately followed by small groups of white lights moving streaking sideways across the same small portion of sky sometimes as many as 5 at a time in some weird formation. I thought theses lights were a long way from me maybe around 10 miles out but then one moved between me and a telephone pole that was only 30 feet away from me. I thought at first that my eyes were playing a trick on me so I moved away from the pole and only one of the white lights to my Southwest moved and for about 15 seconds stayed between me and the pole. This scared me sli! ghtly so I moved completely across my back yard to put some distance between me and the light which and I tried to get my neighbor up to have a second witness but she was in bed. In the meantime the orange reddish object is still doing the same thing as before but now there is one white light with it and they dance up and down and back and forth sometimes appearing as 4 or 5 objects at one time and then quickly back to two one on the left was white the one on the right was orange reddish. If all that was not strange enough for a few minutes these lights mimicked my movements both up and down and back and forth, this further scared me but I am a muscular masculine man who will not scare easy but that was weird. I am 51 years old and have been a sky watcher since I was a child and I have witnessed some things that were hard to explain but with proper homework I have explained every weird thing I have ever seen in the sky until last night. I tried to convince myself of drones, birds, bugs, laser pointer and even cobwebs but this was none of these things.
