There is no more to that story, as such. I stopped at daybreak and did my check, and carried on home. Don't know what I saw. Most likely my imagination.. It was just a really wierd, spooky, windy night. Gave me the creeps, never experienced before, or since.
I'll add another adventure soon, about a wedge tailed eagle I caught.
