Account

Two occupants driving at night noticed reflected eyes by the roadside and then saw the upper portion of a dark creature standing behind limbs as they passed. They drove on in silence before confirming to each other that they had seen the same thing. They returned in daylight and found no tracks but noted a trail and the height of the limb.
