Shape: Formation

March 23, 2015.

I was looking out my back door about 8:20 PM and I saw about 10 orange lights in the west southwest sky approximately 35-40 degrees high. They appeared to be moving south to north in a tight formation.

They seem to stop, and at that time I observed 3 more lights approaching from the south, when I looked back for the group they were no longer there.

At that time 3 more appeared from the same area in the south as the original groupings, one of these appeared to drop straight down, the remaining two moved north about 2 or 3 seconds then faded from view.

They were slightly larger in size then Venus, steady bright reddish orange in color.

I live in Lake Charles, Louisiana, which is 30.3 lat, 93.2 long..

Clear sky somewhat light poluted, since I live near downtown.
