I saw a blood red light in the sky moving to the north west.
I have had some trouble with some raccoon's killing my hens. I went out with a hand gun hoping to shoot one when I saw what looked like a blood red star in the north west. I went back in the house to get my rifle because it has a very good 20 X scope. I had my wife come out to see it. In the scope at full power it still looked like a blood red star. I watched it for a few min and it took on a slight greenish color at the top but stayed mostly blood red. It moved side to side just a bit and got smaller. I was left with the impression that it was moving away to the north west. It reminded me of the way the space shuttle looks when they have a night launch and it is moving away and all you can see is the engine burning as it fades away in the distance. My wife thought it looked like a kite moving side to side. I told her that it could not be a kite because there is no wind. We watched it till it got so small it was getting hard to see it. My wife is in the insurance business and I do some precious metal investing. We have lived here for about 16 years. My e-mail is the best way to contact me.
