NUFORC Sighting 72341

Occurred: 2009-09-16 22:30 Local
Reported: 2009-09-16 20:44 Pacific
Duration: indeterminate
No of observers: 2

Location: Arlington, VT, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

At about 10:30pm my wife and I saw an object in the sky NNW approximately 25 degrees off the horizon.

The object appeared to be a bright star but was blinking with distinct alternating/vibrating colors: red, green, blue, yellow, white. The object appeared to be stationary.

I had a pair of binoculars --not sure what the magnification is, with which we both looked at the object, and it was indeed blinking those colors. This 'star' also appeared to change shape while watching through the binoculars, but maybe that was my imagination.

There were other stars near this object from our vantage point that were not behaving in a similar fashion.

I thought maybe it was a twinkling star. What do you think?
