Strange lights in Abilene Around midnight I started to get hungry and went out for food. The only places open at that time here are Taco Bell, Whataburger, and Wendy's. Given my choices I went to Wendy's.
After goin thru the drive thru I stopped in the parking lot to put the straw in my drink. before I started again I checked down the road and saw several lights in the air. I was about two miles from Dyess AFB at the time and thought it was a plane landing, then I noticed the lights were all blinking and the pattern did not fit any aircraft I know of.
They were all a very pure white color, I couldn't see any yellowing or blueing like aircraft or car lights. I started watching it and saw the light reflecting off some trees under it, it appeared to be apporx. 15 feet off the treetops which were maybe 150 yards away from me.
After about 15 seconds of watching them blink they "slid" over to the SE about 100 yards I estimate. the movement took a full 2 seconds. There was no acceleration or deceleration, it moved and stopped.
After stopping it hovered and all lights went steady for a few seconds then all shut off at the same time. After they turned off I watched for a few more seconds to make sure they didn't come back then drove off.

4 Round Orange Glowing Objects This happened very briefly, was outside bringing the trash out when I looked up into the sky and saw this glowing orange circle which quickly turned into 3 other circles (so 4 total) they went downwards at an angle about 45 degree angle, the objects all appeared to be connected to each other, then quickly went out, didnt fade out went out like you would turn off a light switch. Then about 5 minutes later in the same area this bright orange circle appeared and quickly went out. This time it was only 1 circle.
Saw nothing again after that.
