Observer
Name Tammy S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Several others seen this same one . My work boss saw it also ,he said from his view it had 'colors' . Several others saw it and from a 15 mile difference at sightings. What made it different was how large it was. I see them all the time but this one was bright and seemed closer and larger than the ones normally seen here.
