red,blue silver rotating sphere in clear blue sky in the early afternoon

It is october 17/2015 it is a cool but clear day here. Working in the back yard,cleaning up the garden,raking leaves.

I am moving the compost bin when I look in the nnw sky and notice a shimmering object which I thought was a mylar balloon that was caught up in the wind, which was light from the south.

I was looking at this object for at least 10 mins.

It seemed to rotate,into red,silver and blue it was very shiny, because it was a clear blue sky day.

It is hard to judge distance, could be at least 1000 feet away when I first noticed it,and it may have been there longer.

As I watched this object shine, it was stationary at the time that I first observed it, as time passed it seemed to move away from me, still could see it rotate in the blue sky until I could barely make it out, when I lost site of it. It was just gone.
