| Remarks | I happened to walk out out the right time, I have neighbors checking their cameras and I have to check mine (my boyfriend has a lot of items in the way to get to ours) I didnt have my glasses on and could see the ball in front (this had to be pretty large if I could see it). It was very quick with a bright green tail, i would say about 2 arm lengths long. As it disappeared it seemed like a little bit of a flash and that was also a bright green. |
