Occurred: 2002-05-14 22:30 LocalReported: 2002-05-21 11:12 Pacific
Duration: 30 seconds
No of observers: 1
Location: Seattle, WA, USA
Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object
Anomalous bright light.
Facing west after sunset. Bright white light moving behind tall evergreen tree. At first it appeared to be approaching airliner landing at Seatac airport. I looked away for 2-4 seconds while moving to get a better view, and the object was gone. Had it been an aircraft it would have continued to be visible. As I looked in the direction of the tree I heard the rasping sound of an animal such as a bird. I have watched night skies for over 40 years, am a former pilot and have an excellent knowledge of all types of man made aircraft. There was no sound. This event left me puzzled.

Witness elects to remain totally anonymous. PD
