Shape: Light

About 7pm PDT 6/5/04 I saw two small bright objects to the South East about 45 degree elevation over Sonoma Mountain. The tiny dots were to the west of an old contrail. I got my binoculars and a digital camera. My wife was thr first to see one of the objects in the binoculars. It was red and white, irregular shape, and appeared to be tumbling about very high up. I also witnessed this with the binoculars. It's position relative to the contrail did not change appreciably. I lost sight of the other object right away. I took several digital photos in the area where I saw the object and one of them captured it, although the resolution is poor. After about 15 minutes I lost sight of this object too. There were no noises, lights or color changes.
