Shape: Fireball

Red/orange yellow orbs flying at tree line from south to north.

I was looking out my kitchen window into the night sky and noticed a cluster of 3 and another cluster of 2 very close by for a total of five bright red/ orange and yellow orbs. They were low in the sky just above the tree line. I thought they were planets at first and grabbed my binoculars.

Looking through the binoculars, the orbs looked like planets do large silvery colored orbs. As the first five moved almost out of view a sixth and seventh orb appeared a little lower in the sky. All seven orbs were moving very fast. The whole incident was less than a minute. Then I realized they could not be planets.

I was facing south looking out the window and the orbs were moving from right to left, south to North. The orbs were about one-half the size of the moon and looked very close to the tree tops.
