I was watching a movie on disk and took a break to go outside to have a smoke. I have to where glasses to watch movies (distance) and keep them on when I go outside to look at stars while I smoke. I was looking up in the sky and saw a bird soaring across the sky from west to east and my first thought was “wow” a hawk or eagle. As it moved across the sky I started to realize it was different. It wasn’t until it disappeared into the eastern horizon that I realized the following facts of what I just watched. The bird, it had a perfect shape wings spread and all, appeared to light, not glow, just like the stars. It sailed across the sky without flapping its wings and the time it took from the moment I saw it, the upper west region of the sky, to the time it disappeared in the western side of the sky, not fully the lower horizon, could not be traversed by a bird. And there was no wing flap, it was a perfect image of a large bird of pray moving across they sky wit! hout change. I have seen “stars” moving across the sky on these same types of moments when I step out for a smoke. I have seen what could be satellites, or some other space junk. I have seen what are obviously are planes with the flashing lights and all. But I have never seen this. It was a fully formed bird with wings spread, soaring across the sky without a single flap of the wings, at a height far above what a bird would soar, and a steady light, exactly like the stars. I have watched many a hawk, and even a couple of eagles, soar around the sky’s and when this was over I realized I had not seen either no mater how much it had the shape.
