The two men were looking at the swamp at Spring Creek. They stood on the bank and looked around. They saw alligators and many beautiful dragonflies. 

Suddenly, across the swamp directly in front of them, they both saw the biggest "bird" they had ever seen fly up from the tree and head straight for them. It was gray, featherless. It had a wingspan just over the length of a pickup truck and looked like a flying leather "V". She made a sharp turn and hit a tree. Her weight shook the entire treetop, and there they lost sight of her. 

It had a white head, gray wings, and no noticeable paws. The wingspan was supposed to be ten to fifteen feet (3-4. 5 m) and had no feathers, which looked like the skin of a bat.

Summary: Two men were looking at a swamp at Spring Creek and were standing on shore just looking around. They had seen alligators and a lot of beautiful dragonflies. Suddenly, across the swamp, directly in front of them they both watched the largest ‘bird’ they had ever seen take flight from a tree and head directly for them. It was gray with no feathers. It had a wingspan of just over ¾ the length of a pickup truck and looked like a flying leather “V”. It made a sharp right and landed in a tree. Its weight shook the entire top of the tree and from there they lost sight of it. It had a white head, gray wings, and no noticeable feet. The wingspan has to have been between ten and fifteen feet and had no feathers, only what appeared to be hide like that of a bat.
