Strange white flying objects flying together in perfect unison.

My husband and I were going under the Island freeway in our fishing boat. As he was driving the boat I looked to the right side(heading south) I saw what looked like alot of birds. (White birds in the sky) The longer I looked at the swarm of birds flying all over some distance away. There were 2 white disc shaped white objects futher back from these birds. They stayed in perfect distance side by side for the longest time and they seemed to be barely moving or at a fairly slow speed. This Sunday was an exceptionally clear day and the sky was very blue with white clouds in the back ground. The 2 things never drifted up or down just side by side. What was so weird about these 2 objects was that as they approached this cloud, instead of going through the cloud they took a 45 degree turn, both side by side. Then I saw one of the Unidentified things through the middle of the cloud for a second.(This would be the side of it. It just stayed there for a second, then slowly went behind the cloud again.(Slow motion). It came out of the other side of the cloud and once again they were side by side, in perfect order. At one time I thought that they could be a set of planes flying perfectly together like the blue angels, because they flew close together, same height and same distance apart from each other and when they got near the cloud they both turned and I mean turned exactly to the right at such a sharp angle at the same time. I had to keep looking because I couldn't believe what I had just seen. Even when I first saw these 2 white objects, their were alot of birds flying in front of them that I thought they were also birds. Then I noticed that the front of these things were really birds. The birds started flying up and down, and you could see their wings go up and down, but the 2 behind the 15 or so birds never went up or down just straight towards this little cloud.(Or so the cloud looked to me from where I was at). I kept trying to show my husband what I was seeing and he also saw these objects and the birds but he was driving the boat and since we were in the intracoastal canal he had to pay close attention to his driving. I don't think he really knows what he or I saw except they were white and moving away from us. After they came out the other side of the cloud they just continued going away from us until they were out of sight. There was no sound and no smoke like jets or very fast planes would leave. I did notice that when I saw them in the middle of the cloud, kind of peaking through the cloud, he seemed to have stopped for the moment. I think all this took approximately 10 minutes or so and then they were gone. I remember seeing these 2 white disc like things so well, for I always wear polarized sunglasses when I go fishing or wade fishing and the sun was behind me, not to the right of me, and therefore was not in my eyes. Who knows, but I do know that if I wasn't planes then what was it, too perfect flying order, just a little strange for me, especially the way they turned, the way they seemed to just stay in that spot for a little while, then just go one about there way. Then Gone.
