An eyewitness contacted The Singular Fortean Society on August 22nd to report the sighting of a large, winged creature flying over South Pulaski Road in Chicago at around 4:55 p.m.

I have been hearing about the "flying moth man" for a while now but was skeptical about its existence. I just assumed that someone was playing a joke and that the photos that I saw online were photoshopped. Until today. I was driving down S. Pulaski at around 4:55 p.m., right before 55th Street. I and saw it soar right over the Shell gas station! It was really fast and I couldn't get a photo because it disappeared before i got to the light. I guess you can say that I now am a believer as I saw it with my own two eyes.

The sighting lasted only a few seconds, and the witness compared the creature to a giant bat.

"There really isn't much more than that. I only saw it for about 3-4 seconds as it flew by," she said. "The rational part of me thinks that maybe it can be a giant Japanese bat that accidentally got shipped here through cargo or something like this."

"It honestly looked exactly like it does in the following photo," the witness explained. "And I was only a couple blocks away from where this photo was taken when I saw it. I really don't have any details as I only saw it for a few seconds. It was really fast! It looked EXACTLY like this."
