Yesterday while I was out in our backyard, which is mostly woods, I saw this thing.
I thought it was a moth, but I'm not sure.
It was about the size of my thumb nail, but I could still see it perfectly well for some reason. He was hovering just about a foot off the ground. It was a pure fresh snow color, almost a pearly white and oddly enough almost seemed like it was glowing a bit as well, no other colors and it was the same color all the way through evenly. No antenna or any kind of bug features. No legs that I could make out either. It did not look quite like a moth or any kind of flying bug I had ever seen.
It had wings that were quite high up on it's body, I guess shoulder height on a person if I had to say, and it's body and wings were very slender and graceful. I was about 4 feet away and I had to blink a few times to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing lol. I walked slowly and quietly over to the small short plant it landed on. When I bent down to get a better look it was gone. I swear it was like it melted away! I saw it land and I never took my eyes from the spot. I checked the plant very well, not many leaves or anything, but he was just gone!
I have never seen anything like that and it left me feeling a bit odd, not a bad odd, just odd.
Anyone have any idea what it might have been?
