Two differnet objects, one orb, one V shape, night of lunar eclipse.

3 college students, standing on a hillside watching the lunar eclipse. scanning the sky for shooting stars/meteors. the first 'ufo' looked to be almost as a pair of whitish green shimmering wings, like a massive falcon streaking acrosss the sky-- not flapping jsut a very fast gliding. point of origin was not seen, visual contact ended when the thing was obscured by a light source from a near by building. it traveled NE to SW across the sky. second object was spotted about 5 min later, a small mutely glowing orb, would have mistaken it for a shooting star, but its path was erratic and jumpy, traved on an identical path to first object, but parallel about 500ft apart to the west. point of origin not seen, visual contact obscured by a nearby building
