| Name | Barbara D |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This sighting was remarkable. I, at first thought I was watching a firework, but the path was not at all like a firework. This green thing with the gold tail traveled pretty much parallel to the horizon. It did not move extremely fast. There was no sound. It was brilliant. And it was just at sunset. |
