Initial data
Three schoolteachers were driving North on old Pleasanton road in separate cars when they saw two large winged creatures flying. They all turned to the side of the road and got out to get a better look at the creatures.
One of the creatures landed in a nearby field, while the other continued to fly South, then turned and began to return. Suddenly the one on the ground flapped its wings a couple of times, and they both flew South.
Their wingspan ranged from 15 to 17 feet (4.5-5.1 m). They were mostly black and brown. One of the witnesses said that "bird" resembled a prehistoric flying creatures, in particular the Pteranodon.
One witness stated that the creatures glided and did not actually fly, and their wings were bony and leathery.

One of the creatures landed in a nearby field, and the other kept flying southward, and then it turned and started coming back. Suddenly the one on the ground flapped its wings a couple of times and they both flew south. Their wingspan was estimated to have been 15 to 17 feet. They were mostly black and brown in color. One of the witnesses said the “birds” resembled prehistoric flying creatures, notable the pteranodon. One of the witnesses stated that the creatures glided and did not really fly and their wings were bony and leathery.
