A listener writes “In June of 2008 a friend and I were returning home late in the evening and watched a family of four BF’s cross the road directly in front of my car. I lived in the Sierra Foothills of CA and we were traveling very slowly on a windy road. One was about 8 feet tall, one about 7, and then two smaller ones about 3 or 4 feet tall skipping ahead of the parents, just as human toddlers might do.
After we passed where they crossed, we decided to go back to see if we could spot them again. I reversed a few yards and parked on a pullout with my headlights facing some large boulders. We couldn’t see them, however, we could see their eyes dashing left and right behind the rocks.
Something I’d like you to address I don’t hear often is why sometimes their eyes will reflect red, other times green. Many years ago I read an article that stated eye color was predicated on type of light shining on them. If I remember correctly, halogen causes the green reflection?
Also, the eyes were moving so fast back and forth, almost as if they were on a stringer. This wasn’t due to them rocking side to side since they moved several yards. Do you recall others speaking of this?”
