4 T shaped amber objects

Spotted 2 Amber colored objects next to cell phone tower as I was taking my friend home. We got out of the car and watched them for a few minutes as they gradually moved off over the horizon.. They appeared to be 30 feet in height and 10 feet in width at the top. Each end of the T had a circular barb shape like a barbell . The objects were 300 feet away from us and we're very visible. The distance from the ground was less than the height of the cell tower. They appeared to be made of plasma, T shaped and I could see the energy moving about inside them.. After the first 2 we're almost out of sight two more appeared from behind the tree line.

Initially during the sighting I refused to look away to grab my phone as I was not going to miss any part of what I was seeing. Thinking the sighting was over or just about over, we noticed more amber lights behind the trees next to us and two more objects that were identical to the two we I initially saw came out above the trees directly up to the cell phone tower. It was then I decided to take some video. My friend was a cell phone tower technician and was the first to spot the objects as he commonly notices towers and especially that one as it is located directly next to the apartments he lived in. The tower is located in Hoover Alabama. It's on a hill behind a restaurant called the Iguana Grill. His apartment was on the bottom of the opposite side of the hill from the restaurant. This is a very populated area. The time was about 12:15 am. The moon was very bright that night. The sky's were super clear. There was no wind and we could hear traffic going down the interstate a couple miles away very clearly but not anything from the objects. The video clips I have are good quality but the images do not appear well. You can see there is something in the sky of amber color. The first recording I attempted I noticed the flash above the camera came on and I immediately covered it with my hand and shut it off as I did not want to signal the objects. It was too late however as the object in front reacted to my cameras bright flash and began coming towards us. It also began changing from the amber color to a bright red almost magenta. I started to run away across the parking lot. I looked back and it then changed back to the amber color and re positioned itself in front of the other one.. Both sets of objects traveled the same. One object was in front and the other was behind off to the side. That pattern reminded me of the way fighter pilots fly with a wingman. I took another short video with the flash off. I was paying close attention and focused on getting the best video I could. The Samsung phone just did not take good night time video. I have saved the videos to multiple cloud based locations to prevent ever loosing them. It's been almost 10 years since the sighting. I've decided to make this report to hopefully help determine what the heck these things were. It was a life changing experience.
