Observer
Name Steve S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks This sighting was the most unusual thing i have ever seen. For a split second the woods lit up from a very dark predawn morning to many times brighter than that of a bright sunny day. The sound was so very unusual as the fire ball went out and the tail disappeared. It was so very very close as it came overhead.
