eagle shaped with detailed coloring
I was only about 4 years old, but I remember it well. Me, my sister (8 years old at the time), my grandmother, granddad, mother and stepfather were out in the front yard at my granddad's house. It was early evening and there were no clouds in the sky.
I remember, as do all that were there, looking just above the big pecan tree and seeing a giant (the size of two 747s) eagle that was made out of what it seemed like to be metal. It a light on the end of the beak and around the wings and on the tail. It was solid...meaning that the wings did not flap. It's head was turned to where looking up, all you could see was one eye. The color was very detailed and there was no sound. It just hovered.
We all were standing there in awe looking at the eagle when my granddad started yelling at us to get in the house and go to the closet. The last thing I remember was running into the closet and everyone was crying.
My stepfather started to close the door and everyone started yelling for granddad. My stepfather said that he would go get him and he closed the door. That's the last thing I remember. What I do remember, I remember very vividly...as do all that were present.
That very next Christmas, my granddad built a huge cross that the entire town could see for years to come. He lined it in white lights and put it in the yard right where we were standing that day.
Through the years after that day, when we would try to discuss it with granddad, he ALWAYS cut us short and refused to discuss it.
I've NEVER heard of a UFO sighting like this in my life. I've looked everywhere on the web as well as the UFO museum in Roswell. I know what we saw was real. We all remember very well.
