Circle over Mifflin Park, PA

The report, as filed

i spotted 2 ufo's directly above my house. they were circular with orange/yellow type lights going around the outside of the 2 crafts. after a few minutes one ufo turned off its lights. i could still see this craft even with the lights off. the craft with the lights off then proceeded north leaving the other behind and still lit up. at this point i ran into my house for binoculars. the craft that was lit turned off its lights and proceeded north also. i followed this one with my binoculars as it headed north. neither ufo made any sound at all. the rate of speed that they left the area seemed much faster than a commercial jet. upon reaching a north point they both picked up speed made a sharp right turn and were gone. at this point my wife spied 3 more ufo's south of my house. these were not lit up. these also moved north at a fast rate of speed. during these 10 minutes or so it seemed every dog in the neighborhood was barking. we also smelled ! the smell of something burning. i don't know if the burnt smell and dogs were related but the dogs stopped barking and the smell went away. another curiosity i saw was what seemed to be a star between 2 trees in the distance. i put the binoculars on this and thought i would see a star but what i saw was an object obviously far away with green and red lights. this object hung between the trees for 30 minutes of so and then disappeared. about 20:30 i saw two airplanes heading north that seemed to be chasing the objects. i know they were not commercial because they emitted no sound and seemed to fly faster than a commercial jet.
