As it for closer to the horizon, I lost sight of it due to the trees. But I could still see some parts of the bright green ball through the limbs and leaves. It was by far the most beautiful thing I've seen in the sky.

Remarks
At first the ball was by itself. The tail got longer and brighter as ball was changing color from white to bright green. Once ball was fully green, tail was orange and long.
