Cluster of Orange Lights Moving Rapidly Across the Horizon In Changing Formations

At approximately 10:15 p.m. my daughter opened the front door and asked me to come quickly and see this. At that time I noticed a formation of bright, orange balls that seemed to be roughly in the shape of a diagonal line. (approximately two-o'clock on a clock). I say roughly because one ball appeared to be out of the line and further ahead. I initially thought it was a military craft formation of some sort moving from the southeast, however as they got closer, it became apparent that this was not something mechanical. There was absoulely no noise at all, and no trails of smoke or vapor were behind them. They were located not too far above the horizon (meaning I did not have to look too far up to see them). They appeared to be moving rapidly to the west and the pattern they were moving in changed as they moved. There did not appear to be grouped in any shape now as they were moving. Right before they disappeared, they clustered up together in two ci! rcles and then started winking out one by one. The entire occurrene took less than two minutes, and it scared the heck out of my ten year old. Most definitely not anything I have ever seen, and we have seen plenty of military crafts and manuevers in our area over the years. They were not large in relation to the size of the moon, however they were much larger than stars and as I said much lower in the horizon.
