Unknown over Early, IA

The report, as filed

The object flying headed from West to East at a fairly slow pace, there were two white/yellow blinking lights close together flashing at the same time. The object suddenly shifted very slowly to the South and went a little further before one light went out, the other dimmed and the object stopped. It then sat for about one minute before it slowly turned back to the West and that light dimmed even further. I looked down to send a message to a friend about it and then when I looked back up no lights were further visible and it was nowhere in sight. It was too windy and early in the morning for me to think it was a drone, but seemed smaller than a regular air craft. It didn’t look to be that far away but it was dark and difficult to get a shape on it. It flew flat, not ascending or descending. My son watched it fly with me but we couldn’t figure out what it was.
