| Name | John L |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It appeared very large. Probably one of the largest I've seen. Also, I observed it while on a hill - about 650ft. So, it may have appeared higher or lower than someone on flat land. Last, I am partially deaf, so it might have made a noise, but I wouldn't have heard it. I felt no concussion. |

| Remarks | Not sure i saw a flash, but it shed two reddish orbs that quickly fade, as the main body began to disintegrate. I thought maybe I saw a cloud of red sparks for an instant in the tail. |
