Objects at 30dgr elevation in V formation and blended in formation. Appeared to be grey in that they were lighter in color than normal dark sky background. Similar in shape to F-102 but not necessarily size, Blended into darkness of sky. Total duration 2-3 seconds.

11. COMMENTS Extremely short duration, Dark night and two grey objects flew by. Two birds at 35' altitude would travel about 100' in 2-3 seconds, which is probably the limit of visibility for dark objects this size. Possible sighting of two birds.
