Recent sighting and comment

I received this today:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello Mr. Rutkowski,
On May 5, 2005, at 11:45PM, while standing in our driveway at [...] in Winnipeg, my wife and I witnessed 4 lights side-by-side (horizontal) overhead. These lights were heading North and were out of sight within about a minute of being overhead. They traveled straight North, but moved in and out (and even crossed each other), kind of like 4 people walking abreast and moving closer and further from each other (and even changed positions) as they walked, but no one moving ahead or behind another. These lights were slightly less intense as the stars, but a
little bigger than stars. The lights had a slight pinkish tinge to them. There was no sound associated with the lights. We have never seen anything like this before.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I checked for Iridium flares, regular satellites and so forth, but there were none overhead at that time. The crisscrossing suggests, believe it or not, birds flying overhead, a la Lubbock.

Otherwise, not sure.
