The two witnesses had just returned from the grocery store, had just got out of the van and were walking towards the house when one of them looked up at the sky and a movement caught his attention. 

He pointed to the object, and his companion noticed it and followed its movement with him. They couldn't make out any details. What they could see was the wide wingspan. No movement, no sound. They estimated it was traveling at about 20 miles per hour. 

It appeared to be flying about 20 feet (6 m) above the highest treetops - or about 80 feet (24 m) high. It turned out that it was brown in color. They followed him over their house, across the road, and then he disappeared into the darkness in a northeasterly direction. Most of the wingspan was at least 12-15 feet (3.6-4.5 m) wide and possibly much wider, given the rough estimate of height. It turned out that they could only see the lowest part of the wing, and there could be areas on the object that were not visible in the dark. 

After it disappeared, they initially thought it might have been some type of UFO or flying saucer, but after they thought about it, they got the impression that it was an "organic" object or a flying creature that completely planned... no wing movement.

Two witnesses had just returned from the grocery store and had just exited their van and were walking towards the house when one of them looked up at the sky and some movement caught his eye. He pointed to the object and his companion acknowledged it and tracked its movement with him. They could not make out any details. What they could make out was a wide wing span. There was no movement, no sound. They estimate that it was moving at  approximately 20 mph. It appeared to be flying about 20 ft taller than the tallest treetops—or about 80 ft high. It appeared to have a tan color. They followed it over their house, across the road and then it disappeared in the darkness going in a northeast direction. The bulk of the wingspan was at least 12/15 ft wide, and possibly much wider given the rough estimate of the height. It appeared that they were only seeing the very bottom of the wing, and there may have been areas on the object that were not visible in the darkness. After it was gone, they first thought it could have been some type of UFO or flying saucer, but after they thought about it they came with the impression that it had been an ‘organic’ object or a flying creature that had been completely gliding—no wing motion.
