The Beechwood Avenue-native who now lives in Los Angeles noticed several lights moving over the desert wilderness during a visit there on Wednesday.

"Saw these lights tonight around 7.30 p.m. over Joshua Tree. This was 4th set of lights, the previous 3 disappeared and reappeared many miles apart . Unnerving .... military?" she asked.

The ‘A Woman Named Jackie’ and ‘Touched by an Angel’ star braved the 100 degrees heat to visit the famous national park in eastern California.

"America is such an extraordinary country with so much beauty to explore. Marvelling at our own home state California and our epic national parks . We visited Joshua Tree...and we are overwhelmed by the beauty of this unusual landscape," she tweeted.
