two diamond shaped 'craft' during eclipse

Three normal aircraft passed befoore these. One Copntinental jet, small prop and helicopter. Then I noticed two flying in formation and looked at them with my 20x60 binoculars and saw amber light in front and back. Flourescent blue on the side and one was blinking. Normal craft I could hear but these I couldn't. After they got towards the horizon one just disappeared. I wasn't expecting anything unusual during the lunar eclipse. This is my first sighting as well.
