My daughter and I witnessed something strange one evening—a light, about the size of a full moon, incredibly bright, white, and fluorescent, suddenly appeared and flashed rapidly from north to south. The surrounding countryside and the timber along Gidyen Creek, about a quarter-mile away, were momentarily bathed in intense light. It lasted only about a second before disappearing or going out. It wasn’t high in the sky but seemed to be above the timber and between houses. Strangely, there was absolutely no sound, but our dog was very alarmed. The brightness of the light was visible up to eight miles to the east.
Similarly, a nun and a priest reported a similar sighting while traveling on the Kynuna-Julia Creek road at around 11:30 pm. This area is about fifteen to twenty miles SSE from our location.
