Yes. this is completely consistent with satellite viewing. 10:30 EST is waaay too late to be able to see conventional satellites due to the low angle of the sun by that time. Irridium flares early in the morning, as well as satellites. Optimum time for satellite viewing is sundown - 9:00 EST.
the person I talked to theorized that your seeing the sun reflecting off of the object, hense why you watch them right after sundown for about 90 minutes when they are most visible, after which, they are in shadow..
and I have not seen many after about 10:30pm here (which is about right...stars start coming out at about 9pm here currently).

CRITTERS Plasma life forms
They are harmless, they have always been here and they live in the atmosphere and space.
If you really want to see them see if you can borrow some night vision goggles. Generation 3 is best but those run around 3-4 thousand
OH and watch just before and around a big thunderstorm
