While driving with my wife we both saw what at first appeared to be a large helicopter moving horizontally across the sky , it quickly turned and came straight at us and went right over head and we saw it plainly. It was moving like something out of a sci fi movie and was triangular in shape with what looked like a green and red arrow lights underneath. Definitely not a drone, helicopter or airplane. Just after we saw it my wife said , watch out for that deer crossing the road. It wasn’t a deer and we can both only describe it as a mix between a llama and a hyena. Don’t know if the two are connected but that’s what we saw. Was looking for a place to pull over to try to get a pic or video of the craft when we saw the animal then decided to just get the hell out of there. Rural road and we weren’t taking any chances.

Triangle shaped with a round light at each point and one in the middle. Appeared to be just above tree line but I knew it was very high in the sky . Didn’t seem to be going super fast but I knew it was and just had the feeling that it was huge, like the size of Texas huge. When it went over and until it was out of sight it was like I had on noise canceling headphones like it was more quiet than quiet . The whole thing is hard to explain but it was not anything from this planet I am positive of that.
