Observer
Name M
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks A few years ago I saw similar sighting not far from where i saw this one and strangely enough both sightings seem to travel in the same direction.But the sighting few years ago was a lot larger in size compared to the one I saw on New Year’s Eve which seemed to look like it was dieing out.
