Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Left a trail

It was a very clear night, so I went to do as I always do and climbed onto the roof of my carport to look at the stars with binoculars, when I noticed these little lights in a triangular shape silently gliding through the air over some houses in front of me, but the lights did not seem to be connected to anything solid in between or in the center of them. All I could do was watch in amazement at my very first UFO sighting, too bad I was alone.

The object(s) looked to be triangular in shape but in a connect-the-dots sort of way as if there was nothing in between these dots of light, there were just staying in silent formation very low over a group of houses next to mine, and seemed to look as if was being looked at while it was behind something hot.(like hot roads look like they have water on them on a hot day) Also (maybe just my imagination) I think I saw a vey faint yellowish whispy trail being left by this object as it went and dissapeared through some trees where I finally lost visual contact. The lights on this object all three of them seemed to be some sort of yellow-orange-reddish color.
