"The moonlight lit them up and it was terrifying at first. They were just cruising right along about 50 feet off the ground. They were huge, with 40-foot total wingspans!"
I received the following account:
“Hi, Lon. I realize that this happened almost 14 years ago, but I have not dared to come forward before. On October 4, 2011, I was coming home from the Twin Cities, Minnesota. I live in Iron County, Wisconsin, not far from Carey. It was 2:30 in the morning. I was driving down my road and came down a bit of a dip in the road. Was coming back up and to my left-hand side, they did some clear-cutting and some logging out. All they left were some maple trees and there was a big natural gas pipeline that ran right through the area. It's all clear. They keep it clean. And right about there, coming out of the west, heading east were two pterodactyls. I didn't know what they were the second I saw them. You know, if I had only seen one, I would have never told anybody about what I had seen. I would be like, 'Wow, I need to go to bed. I've been up a little too long.' But there were two of them. I don't remember if it was a full moon but it was super bright out, so the moon lit everything up. I had the high beams on.
I was the only one on this road so when I came up out of that dip, the headlights caught them. The moonlight lit them up and it was terrifying at first. They were just cruising right along about 50 feet off the ground. They were below the trees and I'm guessing the trees down there aren't much more than 70 feet, the tallest ones. They were below that. When I saw the spike off the back of their heads that runs at like a 45-degree angle or so, 30-degree angle or whatever, and the 40-foot wingspan. It was like, there are no cranes around here that are that big. We have Sandhill Cranes and some other big cranes but they don't have 40-foot wingspans. There are swans over to the east of us on Lake Superior but they're not 40 feet across.
I mean, to this day, I didn't tell anybody about it because they would think, 'Wow, you finally went off your rocker.' I'm just like, so after that, I just kind of let it go. You can't get that thought or that picture out of your mind. I did some research on them and I was like, 'Yeah, that's what I saw' and the more I did the research and found out about these things, I was like, I'm not going down there to wait it out and see. There was nobody with me in the truck. I had one of my dogs with me and he ain’t talking to anyone about it.” K
