Reports Report 462a (Event 462-2024)

Observer
Name Teresa L
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Both my husband and I saw the same thing, described it the same green/blue head (mostly green) with a bright orange trail. It crossed our path over Mijas Golf. Sadly I was coming from the airport and my phone was in my hand luggage and my husband was driving so wasn't able to take a photo. To be honest I don’t think I’d have been quick enough anyway.
