2 extremely low "flying" lights no noise hovered then zoomed completely unnatural NOT aircraft lights (one light caught on camera)

While I was perched precariously on top a ladder installing new CCTV cameras at my recently deceased father's home my nephew said "hey nanny what's that?" I glanced back and immediately knew something wasn't right... I can't explain the feeling other than I was immediately concerned for our safety and wanted to get us away and safe (as a confirmed nightowl I can confidently say without doubt I have NEVER seen ANY THING like this before in my life!!! I am frequently outside in the country at night and typically alone and I have never been "spooked" I've done and seen ALOT but THIS was different somehow...) Not wanting to frighten my nephew I said "prolly just a plane" as I tried to climb down safely but swiftly! When I looked again the light was now fully visible (it had been partially hid from view by the tree tops across the road before) I now saw TWO HUGE yellow-ish lights hovering above the trees that line the road... My nephew said that the lights appeared to "be on fire" I replied I didn't see that and he said well my eyes are better than yours (true... Lol) he said it looked like how a fire "crackles" but again I only saw solid lights... Everything seems to be in slow motion when I think back but it couldn't have lasted in total more than 2 or 3 mins max! This convo happened while I was climbing down (I was installing camera on second story) so I didn't have a constant eye on it but once down I looked again & it seemed to have "jumped" closer crossing the road and now this sounds crazy I know but it felt like it was ACTIVELY LOOKING AT US!!!!! The lights had seemingly grown and swole to an unnatural size which sent me into a panic that I now couldn't hide! I grabbed the box cutter I'd had on the ladder and told my nephew to put it in his pocket as I grabbed his shoulder and seriously but silently said "WALK DO NOT RUN... NOW!!!" I pushed him in front of me trying to get him into my father's house and right before entering he said it's gone! I must be honest and say there was NO WAY that I was going back out there to look sadly! I pulled him into the ONLY place in the whole house that was windowless (the bathroom lol) and locked the doors as I sat on top the toilet trying to steady my nerves and slow my racing heart I realized I'd left my phone outside (OF COURSE!!!) Thankfully my nephews youthfulness means he ALWAYS has his phone (thank god! Lol) with my voice shaking I said call your mom (my sister an RN who lives next door) when she sleepily answered I rapidly over talked him and then just took the phone basically screaming at her what had happened and that we were scared and "locked in daddy's bathroom!!!" (Lol I have no idea what I wanted her to do but at that moment my mind was frazzled! Even tho I'd always believed basically that ANYTHING was possible in this world I surely NEVER thought that I'd see such things!!!!!!!! Even now I can't seem to get over the event and the thought of it brings paranoia and an intense fear...) Once I stopped and took a breath my sister immediately said "OMG it's probably on my camera's!" And promptly hung up on us! Lol mins later we heard her pull up and we ran to her she was in her nightgown no shoes but phone in hand and almost unbelieving her own eyes she just shoved the phone at me and said LOOK!!!!! She had indeed caught SOMETHING but whether or not it was what WE had saw I have no idea... One the video there is a small pinpoint of light (I actually didn't see it until she began scrubbing the video back and forth only then do you realize it had been there all along!) The almost invisible light suddenly grows it is visibly stationary until it zooms off of the screen straight up and is gone! But the thing that bothers me is that there is only ONE light visible in the video where we BOTH clearly saw TWO bright lights equally sized (and imo larger but could have simply been either have appeared so in my mind from the fear OR might have only appeared smaller on the video thru a lack of perspective I'm unsure) regardless WE SAW SOMETHING and thankfully completely independently my very very skeptical sister managed to unwillingly capture something very similar... I have no idea what those lights/light were but this I do know: there was NO blinking light on planes, there was ABSOLUTELY NO NOISE not even from the MANY animals housed on the farm, and lastly altho not measurable by anyone else I can freely say that my usually clear headed and rational mind that thus far in my life has NEVER been fearful of anything but man absolutely caught fire that night as I felt this unbelievable instant terror deep inside me that had me walk/running inside my father's home and locking myself and my nephew in a BATHROOM for gods sake too scared to look back even when I really really WANTED to I couldn't force my body to do so in fear of seeing something I may never be able to UNSEE and terrified at what that might mean to me and my previous love of the nights... I don't know what that was, what "they" wanted, nor what any of it meant but I do know this: when I've been back to feed (it's a working farm and animals HAVE TO be fed daily) I go EXTRA early now and I'm out of there before the sun goes down when before I'd only just be arriving... I'm not trying to recreate that "experience" that's for certain!
