The report, as filed

On Easter evening at 10:35pm I was watching the night sky with my infrared scope and noted 3 white orbs hovering to the west of my vantage point. All were hovering in place at different heights (all below cloud deck) then one by one they slowly started to move northwards. Just then I note another "just appear", then another; until there were 7 solid white orbs, all at different heights moving very slowly, at times hovering in place again. It took 20min for the objects to go from warning tower area to mountain range that the Persimmon Golf Course sits on. Orbs continued on at low elevations over mountain and on northwards. I noted neighborhood dogs going crazy, but all frogs, crickets and owls shut right up.

Damascus, OR

There were two lights, one following the other perfectly like it was on the nose and tail of a plane. They were moving very fast and I watched them fly under a star but the star didn't blink like it would if there was a solid object connecting the two lights. They passed under another star, which also didn't blink and there also was no noise whatsoever.
