Pterosaur in California Desert
Sighting in California Desert
(Anza Borrego, about 1991)
From the nonfiction book "Live Pterosaurs in America"
According to an eyewitness, "I have been haunted for . . . years by what I saw in the desert. I have never told anyone due to the fact that I was afraid I would be thought nuts . . . We were sitting in the late afternoon
shade of a ridge, on lawn chairs, enjoying the solitude and peace and quiet of the desert . . . I caught the sight of it . . . It was soaring along the side of a plateau not far from us. We knew what it looked like. In fact, I remember saying ‘. . . that looks just like a Taradactyl!’ . . . It did not have a tail. But it did have a nub where a tail would be. . . . we knew it had to have been [a] lot larger than an eagle, maybe three times larger."
