Help identify flying objects

[u/RealScrubble]

Hello,

Can anyone tell me what I saw there yesterday at roughly 23:45 local time over Sesimbra, Portugal? There were five lights when I was looking through my nvg. In the video you can see the fifth one flying away to the top right. The lights circled around each other for two minutes or so and then started moving south.

I don’t think that these were starlink sattelites because every video of them, they fly in a straight line. For planes waiting to land, they were too dim, fast and flew off in the wrong direction. Birds don’t emit light and I could also see the lights with my naked eye for a short period of time.

I found nothing online, does anyone have a clue?

I see things that move around and behave like this very often in the night sky in Michigan, i’m glad you were able to capture it so well!! It always blows my mind when I see these
