While driving through town on my way back home from a hunting trip, I saw what I can only describe as a rather large orange/red, orb for the lack of a better word, moving downward toward the earth. It wasn't dropping from the sky, but rather moving diagonally and downward. I estimated it to be several miles away toward the town of Allen, so between Belfair and Allen I would assume. It wasn't moving fast nor leaving any type of smoke trail. It had to be fairly big, because even though it seemed to be miles away it was still very large in the sky. My best guess would be over 100 yards long, but I may be way off because it all happened so fast. I was in traffic and obviously didn't want to have an accident. When I got to the traffic light it was no longer visible, so I started looking around for other people to see if anyone was looking and/or pointing but nobody was. I texted my hunting partner and told him what I just saw. I just want to know if anyone else in Mason County saw what I did, or maybe someone whom can explain what I saw?

At 18:49 I was surprised to see what I at first believed to be red flares in the low east sky from my residence. It wasn't until 9 of the came into view and went from a straight line into a shape that resembled the Little Dipper that I realized these craft were flying. They proceeded to change to a southward direction, as well as gained more altitude. I ran for my camera and had someone else come and see what was going on. In less than 5 minutes time they had again changed formation and were disappearing into the sky as they changed direction and went straight up into the sky.
