Dark needle-like object at sunset

4:10 PM exited north (rear/staff) exit of 21 Enterprise drive and proceed to parking lot via path on east side of building. Upon coming into parking lot looked up and saw pictured object in western sky. Object had contrail but did not appear to be moving. Discerned that object was either very flat and I had a side view of it or object was dark/needle shaped and was almost imperceptible from contrail. The object did not emit any sound that I could detect. Object did not have any lights that I could detect. Observed it for aprox 5 minutes. Object did not appear to me to be moving. Took several photos from parking lot looking west (attached to report). Time stamp of photos is 4:19-4:21 PM. Had heavy bags to went to place them in my vehicle. Co-workers large SUV was parked directly next to mine obscuring view for 2-3 minutes while I unloaded my belonging into the back seat and started the engine. Stepped back out and object was no longer visible anywhere in the sky. No clouds, so I assumed there was no way for it to be obscured in sky. Waited for a few minutes to see if it would return or if there was any observable clues that maybe object was closer than I assumed and was behind tree-line. Did not reappear. Told my mother and showed her photos upon arriving home at aprox 5:00PM on 11/10/2021. Showed my sister photos during conversation on Thanksgiving on 11/25/2021. My sister sent me screenshot from social media on morning on 12/6/2021 of individual who witnessed same object and had a photo. I have attached that screenshot.
