On July 14th, 2024 in the small farming community of Wheatland, Wyoming, Farmer John was out in his fields as usual, tending to his crops under the hot morning sun. As he surveyed his fields through tired eyes, he noticed something peculiar in the distance. Moving steadily across the northern edge of his property appeared to be...a winged snake? Rubbing his eyes in disbelief, Farmer John watched as the creature floated lazily through the air with leathery wings flapping gently at its sides. Below, a thin serpentine body undulated gracefully as it cruised only a few feet above the tall grass.

Farmer John stood frozen, wondering if the heat was playing tricks on his mind. But no, this was no mirage - it was real! As the mysterious flying serpent drifted closer, Farmer John could see its scaly skin glinting iridescent shades of green and blue in the sunlight. Two bulbous yellow eyes peered about as a forked tongue flicked in and out, tasting the air. When it had passed near enough for a good look, Farmer John gasped - it was unlike anything he had seen before. Just then, the serpent appeared to spot something interesting in the field and dove down with a flick of its wings, reemerging a moment later with a mouse writhing in its jaws. With its meal secured, the remarkable creature beat its leathery wings and carried on its way, leaving Farmer John standing dumfounded in its wake. He scratched his head, wondering if anyone would ever believe what he had just witnessed - a real live flying snake! It was, without a doubt, one of the strangest occurrences in the history of quiet little Wheatland.
