This reminds me a little bit of when I was living in Delaware, probably 15 years or so ago now…
I was at a shore stop, pumping gas late at night. There were trees in front of the car across the back of the lot… after I finished pumping gas and got back into my car, I saw a large winged figure swoop down out of the trees and over the top of the awning over the gas pumps. To say my jaw hit the floor is an understatement, and it scared the absolute crap out of me. At the time, the closest thing I could think to describe it was mothman. Seeing your post reminded me of it so I thought I would share.
