An eyewitness contacted me about an unknown 'winged' UAP with enormous eyes and a massive wing span that reflected light. It also hovered without flapping its wings. Creature or craft?
“Hello, Mr. Strickler. I just watched the Unsolved Mysteries episode about the Chicago Mothman sightings. I decided to write about my personal incident.
The encounter occurred on July 6, 2005, at about 11:30 pm. I had a long day in San Diego, CA, then afterward going to the beach at Del Mar for some surf fishing. I arrived at my home in San Marcos at about 11:00 pm. After cleaning my fish and showering, I was very tired. I went out to my carport for a smoke and a look at the night sky. I looked north, thinking about a recent UFO sighting and wondering what it was all about. In the distance, at a couple hundred feet, I saw a faintly visible moving object that flitted from side to side. Whatever it was, it reflected light from the streetlights. Its side-to-side movement was so fast, I couldn't tell if it was one object or two. The object then zipped directly over my neighbor’s house across the street.
By this time, I was certain I'd never seen anything like it. It continued to move side to side, in a space of approximately 50 feet. It then stopped and I observed it more clearly.
It had big "eyes" and wing-like appendages that were probably 15-20 feet in span. It remained still and I could see wavering reflections from its "wings" which were not beating like a bird’s but showed shimmering reflections from the streetlights. I felt the hair on my head rise all the way down my back to my ankles! It appeared to be looking at me, as I smoked my cigarette. I felt threatened, and said out loud, "I see you!" Then it went from stationary to out of sight, right over my head in an instant. I came out from under my covered carport and turned to follow its movement. Immediately, it zipped into view directly above my head, obviously studying me! I could see really weird large and intensely dark "eyes". It seemed surprised by my looking right at it. It didn't like being seen. My apprehension rose even higher. It turned away and disappeared like a shot.
It had a birdlike shape but was thicker. My impression was of reflections of the streetlights on wing-like appendages, and big dark eyes!
It wasn't a bird, bat, or any familiar nocturnal creature. Its movements did not seem explicable in comparison to any creature that flies by beating its wings. The hills and mountains are so rugged and inaccessible near my home, that anything could remain hidden and make nighttime forays at will. I read about "Thunderbirds" but I'm not sure if this was one of these.” W
