There was also a long tail, about the thickness and length of a baseball bat with a bulb-shaped formation on the end. The entire body was about 8 feet long with membrane wings that were long and tapered to a point. The long beak was very pronounced and long. It was flying at an altitude of approximately 50 feet and close enough for him and his brother to distinguish detail. It is also near the White Sands Missile Range and National Park.įlying near them was, what the witness described as what he first thought was an oversized Pelican. For those unfamiliar with the location, Alamogordo is in the Tularosa Basin of the Chihuahuan Desert, it is bordered on the east by the Sacramento Mountains and to the west by Holloman Air Force Base. "E" states that he and his brother were driving in his neighborhood just outside of the city of Alamogordo, New Mexico on the early evening of September 11, 2022. I couldn't discern any feathers, the animal appeared grey and smooth. At the end of the tail was some kind of roundish tip about the size of a baseball. The tail was very strange as it appeared to be maybe 2-3 feet long, straight and smooth, a couple inches around. Its wings were very long and tapered to a point. It appeared to be 6-8 feet long, grayish in color, with a long dark beak (appx 1 1/2 feet long). We saw the creature from approximately 100 feet away, and it was about 50 feet off of the ground. On September 11, 2022, my brother and I witnessed what I can only begin to describe as a Pterodactyl-like "bird" flying north to south. "I have to be honest, I wasn't sure who to contact about this but felt I had to report it to someone. They noticed a large Pterodactyl-like creature flying near them and were shocked by the sighting. The witness and his brother were recently driving near his home outside of Alamogordo, New Mexico.
