File this under weird stuff seen in the woods. A bird with a huge wingspan swooped over my head 20 minutes after sunset tonight. I was impatiently waiting to get out of my treestand stand while 3 doe and a buck were feeding the neighbors fresh picked corn near me. The enormous bird cleared the field. I spread my own arms for comparison and it's not even close. It was mostly silent and swooped left and disappeared in the evening rain. The deer ran as fast as they could.
I'm going with Thunderbird. (There are thunderbird petroglyphs on the rocks in the susquehanna river a few miles away.)
There is a storm system coming from the west. Must have carried something my way. Golden Eagle?

Condor who moved East to avoid CA. fires.

Turkey vulture.

That's pretty neat. If it was that quiet it probably was an owl.

Condor avoiding California! Ha.
If I was a little more ready for it, maybe I would have seen it better. I was locked on the deer while trying to pack up my stuff, I only saw it for a second. Arrow30 a heron could be it. I don't know what else would have a wingspan like that.
I have noticed a lot of bird flight in that stand.

Heck with fires, escaping politics and silly laws

Golden eagle maybe? Wing span up to 8'

I second the guess of eagle.

Slow turtle that was my first thought. I have never seen one. Except possible earlier this summer. I thought it that one was a bald eagle but my neighbor said it was way too big. Again that time I only saw it for a second.

Orville, Wilbur??

PA is in the winter range of the Golden Eagle.

Sandhill crane maybe. 

There is a bald eagle using that fence row. But I'm going with this -

I am glad I was sitting in the blind waiting on pigs as I read that one or I would regret the loss of those minutes of my life.😂
