black winged humanoid observed in cape

11
00:00:38,389 --> 00:00:35,600
girardeau missouri

12
00:00:40,229 --> 00:00:38,399
me my two girls and my fiance went to a

13
00:00:42,549 --> 00:00:40,239
little street area where the houses have

14
00:00:44,549 --> 00:00:42,559
halloween decorations at night time

15
00:00:46,229 --> 00:00:44,559
we went down one way and then came back

16
00:00:47,190 --> 00:00:46,239
the other way to look at both sides of

17
00:00:49,750 --> 00:00:47,200
the street

18
00:00:51,590 --> 00:00:49,760
we did that and we were headed back home

19
00:00:53,350 --> 00:00:51,600
we came up over a hill and when we got

20
00:00:55,670 --> 00:00:53,360
down almost to the stop sign

21
00:00:57,670 --> 00:00:55,680
that's when i saw it it was like a human

22
00:00:59,430 --> 00:00:57,680
figure but with big wings the feet and

23
00:01:00,470 --> 00:00:59,440
toes were pointed to the ground and had

24
00:01:02,790 --> 00:01:00,480
scrunny legs

25
00:01:04,149 --> 00:01:02,800
but muscled at the calf the feet were

26
00:01:06,550 --> 00:01:04,159
long but pointy

27
00:01:07,350 --> 00:01:06,560
it was maybe six feet tall the wings

28
00:01:09,590 --> 00:01:07,360
weren't open

29
00:01:11,590 --> 00:01:09,600
they were still closed the creatures

30
00:01:13,590 --> 00:01:11,600
wings looked like they were made of skin

31
00:01:15,670 --> 00:01:13,600
were really pointy and they were past

32
00:01:17,190 --> 00:01:15,680
its head the creature just looked like

33
00:01:18,870 --> 00:01:17,200
somebody getting ready to dive

34
00:01:21,429 --> 00:01:18,880
off of something like they have their

35
00:01:23,109 --> 00:01:21,439
hands out the wings were over top of it

36
00:01:25,350 --> 00:01:23,119
and they were pulled in like wrapped

37
00:01:26,310 --> 00:01:25,360
around it the wings weren't as long as

38
00:01:28,070 --> 00:01:26,320
the body

39
00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:28,080
they came out over the head but were

40
00:01:31,510 --> 00:01:29,600
shorter than the legs

41
00:01:33,350 --> 00:01:31,520
his head was really little and round

42
00:01:35,590 --> 00:01:33,360
kind of pointed but round

43
00:01:37,749 --> 00:01:35,600
about 100 feet from the stop sign to the

44
00:01:39,670 --> 00:01:37,759
right is a grove of tall trees

45
00:01:41,910 --> 00:01:39,680
about two to three acres of big tall

46
00:01:44,149 --> 00:01:41,920
trees that's where i saw it

47
00:01:45,830 --> 00:01:44,159
it looked like it had leaped or dove it

48
00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:45,840
was higher than the street lights but

49
00:01:49,109 --> 00:01:48,000
not real high midway over the road but

50
00:01:50,950 --> 00:01:49,119
in the sky

51
00:01:52,950 --> 00:01:50,960
the life in the softball field littered

52
00:01:54,630 --> 00:01:52,960
some it didn't look like the creature

53
00:01:56,550 --> 00:01:54,640
had any fur feathers

54
00:01:58,389 --> 00:01:56,560
it was bigger than a bird it didn't look

55
00:01:59,590 --> 00:01:58,399
like a bird it was blacker than the

56
00:02:01,429 --> 00:01:59,600
night itself

57
00:02:02,950 --> 00:02:01,439
when i saw it it was kind of like

58
00:02:05,030 --> 00:02:02,960
jeepers creepers

59
00:02:06,789 --> 00:02:05,040
i was going to get my phone out but then

60
00:02:08,070 --> 00:02:06,799
i thought what if it sees me and tries

61
00:02:09,910 --> 00:02:08,080
to come after me

62
00:02:11,589 --> 00:02:09,920
i'd never seen or read about anything

63
00:02:13,510 --> 00:02:11,599
like that until i looked it up to see if

64
00:02:14,470 --> 00:02:13,520
anybody else had seen any other bad

65
00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:14,480
looking humans

66
00:02:18,390 --> 00:02:16,160
it was a shock to see something like

67
00:02:20,830 --> 00:02:18,400
that it is a little scary to go out at

68
00:02:27,030 --> 00:02:20,840
night and know something like that's out

69
00:02:31,110 --> 00:02:28,869
the following account was forwarded to

70
00:02:33,270 --> 00:02:31,120
phantoms and monsters 40 in research and

71
00:02:37,190 --> 00:02:33,280
the singular fortian society

72
00:02:39,430 --> 00:02:37,200
investigator tobias wayland

73
00:02:41,350 --> 00:02:39,440
spoke recently with two sisters who said

74
00:02:43,190 --> 00:02:41,360
they saw a strange flying creature in

75
00:02:44,790 --> 00:02:43,200
late august of this year near the site

76
00:02:46,949 --> 00:02:44,800
where another woman said she'd seen a

77
00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:46,959
black humanoid figure with very large

78
00:02:50,869 --> 00:02:48,800
wings and legs last october

79
00:02:54,229 --> 00:02:50,879
in cape girardeau missouri this is

80
00:02:58,229 --> 00:02:56,150
second large black winged humanoid

81
00:03:00,390 --> 00:02:58,239
observed in cape girardeau missouri

82
00:03:02,229 --> 00:03:00,400
the two women were driving at about six

83
00:03:04,390 --> 00:03:02,239
o'clock in the evening on lexington

84
00:03:05,750 --> 00:03:04,400
avenue and had just passed sprig street

85
00:03:07,750 --> 00:03:05,760
when they had their encounter

86
00:03:09,910 --> 00:03:07,760
which took place only about a mile from

87
00:03:12,790 --> 00:03:09,920
the previously reported sighting

88
00:03:13,430 --> 00:03:12,800
beverly 67 was behind the wheel while

89
00:03:17,750 --> 00:03:13,440
brenda

90
00:03:18,790 --> 00:03:17,760
looking at her phone when she heard her

91
00:03:21,509 --> 00:03:18,800
sister exclaim

92
00:03:22,790 --> 00:03:21,519
what was that i was on my phone i heard

93
00:03:24,710 --> 00:03:22,800
her and i looked up

94
00:03:26,630 --> 00:03:24,720
i got a good look at it but i didn't

95
00:03:28,470 --> 00:03:26,640
really know what i was looking at

96
00:03:29,670 --> 00:03:28,480
it seemed like it was just across the

97
00:03:31,830 --> 00:03:29,680
road and gone

98
00:03:34,070 --> 00:03:31,840
there was no place for it to land said

99
00:03:35,910 --> 00:03:34,080
brenda she described the creature as

100
00:03:37,910 --> 00:03:35,920
being big and blackish brownish

101
00:03:39,990 --> 00:03:37,920
more brown than black but dark and

102
00:03:42,309 --> 00:03:40,000
shaped like nothing i've ever seen

103
00:03:44,070 --> 00:03:42,319
i saw a lot of movement like wings i saw

104
00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:44,080
more of that than anything else

105
00:03:47,430 --> 00:03:46,319
i'd say it was five or six feet tall

106
00:03:49,509 --> 00:03:47,440
maybe bigger

107
00:03:50,470 --> 00:03:49,519
i was kind of rationalizing what i was

108
00:03:52,470 --> 00:03:50,480
looking at

109
00:03:54,309 --> 00:03:52,480
there were no feet i just saw a big

110
00:03:56,550 --> 00:03:54,319
brown mass basically

111
00:03:58,630 --> 00:03:56,560
but it did feel like i saw movement like

112
00:04:00,710 --> 00:03:58,640
wings or something brenda said

113
00:04:02,390 --> 00:04:00,720
i saw whipping fluttering motion and it

114
00:04:03,030 --> 00:04:02,400
looked like it almost took up the whole

115
00:04:04,869 --> 00:04:03,040
route

116
00:04:06,070 --> 00:04:04,879
it probably didn't but that's what it

117
00:04:08,149 --> 00:04:06,080
looked like to me

118
00:04:10,229 --> 00:04:08,159
i honestly wondered at first if it was a

119
00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:10,239
big throw rug flying across the road and

120
00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:11,920
whipping up in the wind or something but

121
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:13,280
there was no wind

122
00:04:17,990 --> 00:04:15,599
it wasn't a stormy day or anything i

123
00:04:20,469 --> 00:04:18,000
said oh my god we saw mothman

124
00:04:22,629 --> 00:04:20,479
however said brenda her sister beverly

125
00:04:24,550 --> 00:04:22,639
saw much more of the thing than she did

126
00:04:26,070 --> 00:04:24,560
according to beverly it looked like it

127
00:04:27,990 --> 00:04:26,080
might have come from the side of the

128
00:04:30,310 --> 00:04:28,000
road there are some trees there but

129
00:04:31,189 --> 00:04:30,320
it was fully in our vision in the car it

130
00:04:32,710 --> 00:04:31,199
wasn't high

131
00:04:34,710 --> 00:04:32,720
it was maybe eight feet off of the

132
00:04:35,909 --> 00:04:34,720
ground you could see underneath it you

133
00:04:38,390 --> 00:04:35,919
could see over it

134
00:04:39,670 --> 00:04:38,400
it was probably five to six feet long

135
00:04:41,350 --> 00:04:39,680
and it was brown

136
00:04:43,590 --> 00:04:41,360
it didn't look like it had feathers to

137
00:04:45,350 --> 00:04:43,600
me it looked like it had membranes

138
00:04:47,590 --> 00:04:45,360
it looked like it had webbed membranous

139
00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:47,600
wings and there were a lot of wings

140
00:04:50,710 --> 00:04:49,680
some were flapping they were ribbed like

141
00:04:52,710 --> 00:04:50,720
umbrellas

142
00:04:54,550 --> 00:04:52,720
it didn't look like a pterodactyl but it

143
00:04:56,950 --> 00:04:54,560
looked like those kind of wings

144
00:04:58,629 --> 00:04:56,960
it was probably 10 to 15 feet ahead of

145
00:05:01,110 --> 00:04:58,639
us and it was flying

146
00:05:02,710 --> 00:05:01,120
i didn't see a person like a body shape

147
00:05:04,230 --> 00:05:02,720
but it certainly could have been a thin

148
00:05:05,909 --> 00:05:04,240
something that was long

149
00:05:07,670 --> 00:05:05,919
beverly said the creature looked like

150
00:05:08,390 --> 00:05:07,680
something was shrouded in this bunch of

151
00:05:10,310 --> 00:05:08,400
wings

152
00:05:12,310 --> 00:05:10,320
it taught skinnier towards the last two

153
00:05:14,550 --> 00:05:12,320
feet like they were wrapped around

154
00:05:17,110 --> 00:05:14,560
to me it looked like a body shrouded in

155
00:05:17,590 --> 00:05:17,120
wings it was definitely wings of some

156
00:05:19,270 --> 00:05:17,600
sort

157
00:05:21,590 --> 00:05:19,280
and they looked like they were meat not

158
00:05:24,390 --> 00:05:21,600
feathers i didn't see any limbs

159
00:05:26,070 --> 00:05:24,400
i didn't see a head the 67 year old

160
00:05:27,350 --> 00:05:26,080
described the wings moving in an

161
00:05:29,830 --> 00:05:27,360
undulating fashion

162
00:05:30,790 --> 00:05:29,840
like a wave the wings were moving she

163
00:05:32,629 --> 00:05:30,800
explained

164
00:05:34,390 --> 00:05:32,639
it looked like it had taken off and it

165
00:05:36,790 --> 00:05:34,400
had these little wings throughout

166
00:05:38,070 --> 00:05:36,800
the way it flew was weird it didn't use

167
00:05:40,390 --> 00:05:38,080
all of its wings at one

168
00:05:41,350 --> 00:05:40,400
time it was the strangest thing i've

169
00:05:43,909 --> 00:05:41,360
ever seen

170
00:05:45,510 --> 00:05:43,919
it rippled kind of neither woman was

171
00:05:47,430 --> 00:05:45,520
able to tell where the creature went

172
00:05:49,590 --> 00:05:47,440
after it flew across the road

173
00:05:51,110 --> 00:05:49,600
i was driving so i didn't see where it

174
00:05:53,029 --> 00:05:51,120
went beverly said

175
00:05:55,350 --> 00:05:53,039
i don't know why we didn't try to stop

176
00:05:57,909 --> 00:05:55,360
and look some more but it was scary

177
00:05:59,590 --> 00:05:57,919
i think that's why as for brenda she

178
00:06:02,309 --> 00:05:59,600
didn't see as much as beverly

179
00:06:03,830 --> 00:06:02,319
because she just looked up and glanced i

180
00:06:05,990 --> 00:06:03,840
didn't see all that detail

181
00:06:07,350 --> 00:06:06,000
she said i did see a glimpse of the

182
00:06:09,670 --> 00:06:07,360
fluttering wing or something

183
00:06:11,430 --> 00:06:09,680
but not all the detailed beverly saw

184
00:06:12,469 --> 00:06:11,440
although the sighting lasted only

185
00:06:14,710 --> 00:06:12,479
several seconds

186
00:06:16,870 --> 00:06:14,720
both women stuck by their story despite

187
00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:16,880
the skepticism expressed by those close

188
00:06:19,350 --> 00:06:17,360
to them

189
00:06:21,749 --> 00:06:19,360
and emphasized that they did not wish to

190
00:06:23,909 --> 00:06:21,759
embellish their testimony in any way

191
00:06:25,749 --> 00:06:23,919
in fact if it wasn't for brenda's son

192
00:06:27,510 --> 00:06:25,759
mentioning the report from october

193
00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:27,520
they may never have reported their own

194
00:06:31,270 --> 00:06:29,360
sighting brenda said that

195
00:06:32,950 --> 00:06:31,280
following their sighting everybody was

196
00:06:35,430 --> 00:06:32,960
saying oh you saw an owl

197
00:06:37,749 --> 00:06:35,440
or whatever i just shut up because

198
00:06:39,670 --> 00:06:37,759
everybody was acting like i'm crazy

199
00:06:41,430 --> 00:06:39,680
we went home kind of scared and

200
00:06:42,309 --> 00:06:41,440
beverly's family acted like we were

201
00:06:44,230 --> 00:06:42,319
crazy

202
00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:44,240
i honestly don't know how i could shut

203
00:06:49,110 --> 00:06:46,560
up about it because i know what i saw

204
00:06:50,870 --> 00:06:49,120
i just kind of let it go until my son

205
00:06:53,350 --> 00:06:50,880
said that people started seeing it

206
00:06:55,589 --> 00:06:53,360
she explained what makes this so funny

207
00:06:56,950 --> 00:06:55,599
or odd is that my son messaged me and

208
00:06:57,909 --> 00:06:56,960
asked if i'd heard of all these

209
00:06:59,749 --> 00:06:57,919
sightings

210
00:07:02,550 --> 00:06:59,759
before i heard anything that he'd had to

211
00:07:03,510 --> 00:07:02,560
say i told him what we saw i told him

212
00:07:06,390 --> 00:07:03,520
where we'd seen it

213
00:07:07,909 --> 00:07:06,400
and he said mom that's the same area if

214
00:07:09,510 --> 00:07:07,919
we'd have turned instead of going

215
00:07:11,430 --> 00:07:09,520
straight we would have ended up where

216
00:07:13,589 --> 00:07:11,440
the october siding happened

217
00:07:15,589 --> 00:07:13,599
beverly added my husband said it was a

218
00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:15,599
pile of leaves that were swirling

219
00:07:19,670 --> 00:07:18,800
no it's not that's not what it was a

220
00:07:25,029 --> 00:07:19,680
crane

221
00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:25,039
it was very unusual and unsettling

222
00:07:27,749 --> 00:07:26,960
that's why we started talking about it

223
00:07:29,749 --> 00:07:27,759
again

224
00:07:31,749 --> 00:07:29,759
we saw something in the same area as the

225
00:07:32,550 --> 00:07:31,759
other siding and i cannot tell you what

226
00:07:34,950 --> 00:07:32,560
it was

227
00:07:37,029 --> 00:07:34,960
i'm so glad you called she said to lead

228
00:07:39,270 --> 00:07:37,039
investigator to bias wayland

229
00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:39,280
because i wanted to tell somebody but we

230
00:07:41,510 --> 00:07:40,800
just didn't know what to do with the

231
00:07:43,830 --> 00:07:41,520
information

232
00:07:44,869 --> 00:07:43,840
so we just didn't do anything then we

233
00:07:52,790 --> 00:07:44,879
heard talk again

234
00:07:57,350 --> 00:07:55,189
seven foot tall winged humanoid lechuza

235
00:07:59,909 --> 00:07:57,360
encountered in waukegan illinois

236
00:08:00,869 --> 00:07:59,919
it was saturday night and it was about 8

237
00:08:03,350 --> 00:08:00,879
30 at night

238
00:08:04,869 --> 00:08:03,360
i was with a group of friends there were

239
00:08:07,029 --> 00:08:04,879
five of us all together

240
00:08:09,270 --> 00:08:07,039
and just chilling out hanging out and

241
00:08:11,430 --> 00:08:09,280
walking around doing nothing at all

242
00:08:13,510 --> 00:08:11,440
we decided to stop at that convenience

243
00:08:16,150 --> 00:08:13,520
store across the street from the skate

244
00:08:18,309 --> 00:08:16,160
park and pick up some snacks and drinks

245
00:08:20,150 --> 00:08:18,319
me and three others were waiting outside

246
00:08:21,749 --> 00:08:20,160
by the bus stop for our friends to

247
00:08:23,510 --> 00:08:21,759
finish grabbing their stuff

248
00:08:25,029 --> 00:08:23,520
when we saw something moving in the

249
00:08:26,710 --> 00:08:25,039
trees behind us

250
00:08:28,230 --> 00:08:26,720
we thought that it was just someone

251
00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:28,240
walking until we saw

252
00:08:32,790 --> 00:08:30,720
that it had red eyes we laughed thinking

253
00:08:34,310 --> 00:08:32,800
it was someone with a mask on trying to

254
00:08:36,709 --> 00:08:34,320
prank us until we saw

255
00:08:39,110 --> 00:08:36,719
that it must have been like seven feet

256
00:08:41,269 --> 00:08:39,120
we decided to walk over to the bushes

257
00:08:43,589 --> 00:08:41,279
and see if it was someone trying to pull

258
00:08:45,430 --> 00:08:43,599
a bad halloween prank on us

259
00:08:46,949 --> 00:08:45,440
we walked over and that's when we

260
00:08:48,870 --> 00:08:46,959
started hearing a sound

261
00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:48,880
that sounded like a baby when they are

262
00:08:53,269 --> 00:08:51,120
crying it was really high pitch

263
00:08:54,150 --> 00:08:53,279
but still sounded like a baby when they

264
00:08:56,710 --> 00:08:54,160
cry

265
00:08:58,870 --> 00:08:56,720
as we got like closer it got louder and

266
00:08:59,590 --> 00:08:58,880
louder till we were about five to six

267
00:09:01,829 --> 00:08:59,600
feet from it

268
00:09:03,190 --> 00:09:01,839
when we saw it shoot up into the trees

269
00:09:05,509 --> 00:09:03,200
and into the air

270
00:09:06,949 --> 00:09:05,519
we all jumped and screamed as this thing

271
00:09:09,829 --> 00:09:06,959
took off into the air

272
00:09:11,509 --> 00:09:09,839
still staring at us and was gone we all

273
00:09:13,430 --> 00:09:11,519
ran back toward the store

274
00:09:14,949 --> 00:09:13,440
and told our other friends who had just

275
00:09:17,110 --> 00:09:14,959
come from inside

276
00:09:19,350 --> 00:09:17,120
they told us to get off the drugs and

277
00:09:20,389 --> 00:09:19,360
that it was probably an owl or some kind

278
00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:20,399
of bird

279
00:09:24,070 --> 00:09:22,800
we all walked over to the skating park

280
00:09:26,470 --> 00:09:24,080
and jumped the fence

281
00:09:28,070 --> 00:09:26,480
and went to hang out inside sitting on

282
00:09:30,070 --> 00:09:28,080
the edge of the bowl talking

283
00:09:31,509 --> 00:09:30,080
and watching our friends skate around

284
00:09:33,430 --> 00:09:31,519
inside the bowl

285
00:09:35,509 --> 00:09:33,440
we had been there like an hour when we

286
00:09:36,710 --> 00:09:35,519
heard the same sound again coming from

287
00:09:38,630 --> 00:09:36,720
behind us

288
00:09:40,470 --> 00:09:38,640
we all heard it and we turned to see the

289
00:09:42,389 --> 00:09:40,480
same red eyes up in the tree on the

290
00:09:43,269 --> 00:09:42,399
other side of the fence we had jumped to

291
00:09:45,350 --> 00:09:43,279
get in

292
00:09:47,509 --> 00:09:45,360
we all sat there watching it for a few

293
00:09:47,910 --> 00:09:47,519
seconds when it flew back up into the

294
00:09:50,150 --> 00:09:47,920
air

295
00:09:52,630 --> 00:09:50,160
and we were able to barely make out that

296
00:09:54,949 --> 00:09:52,640
it had wings and looked like a person

297
00:09:57,269 --> 00:09:54,959
my friend javier yelled out that it was

298
00:09:59,590 --> 00:09:57,279
a lechuza and we all freaked out

299
00:10:01,590 --> 00:09:59,600
we watched as it flew over us twice and

300
00:10:03,590 --> 00:10:01,600
then flew off into the night

301
00:10:05,350 --> 00:10:03,600
we all jumped the fence and walked home

302
00:10:07,750 --> 00:10:05,360
as fast as we could

303
00:10:09,670 --> 00:10:07,760
the entire time we were walking home we

304
00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:09,680
were completely freaked the hell out

305
00:10:13,829 --> 00:10:12,000
and we heard the same sound three times

306
00:10:15,030 --> 00:10:13,839
but it always seemed to be from above

307
00:10:17,350 --> 00:10:15,040
and behind us

308
00:10:18,310 --> 00:10:17,360
we got home and we all crashed at our

309
00:10:20,470 --> 00:10:18,320
friend's house

310
00:10:21,910 --> 00:10:20,480
and didn't leave till the morning i'm

311
00:10:24,069 --> 00:10:21,920
not sure what we saw

312
00:10:25,670 --> 00:10:24,079
but it really scared the hell out of me

313
00:10:27,910 --> 00:10:25,680
and all of my friends

314
00:10:29,190 --> 00:10:27,920
i really don't care if you or anyone

315
00:10:31,590 --> 00:10:29,200
else don't believe us

316
00:10:33,590 --> 00:10:31,600
but we all saw and heard the same thing

317
00:10:35,829 --> 00:10:33,600
and we know what happened to us

318
00:10:38,069 --> 00:10:35,839
we weren't hired drunk we were just a

319
00:10:45,990 --> 00:10:38,079
group of friends just trying to get out

320
00:10:47,910 --> 00:10:46,000
and hang out on a saturday night

321
00:10:49,990 --> 00:10:47,920
tall winged humanoid observed by four

322
00:10:51,110 --> 00:10:50,000
witnesses near nuclear plant in lasalle

323
00:10:53,190 --> 00:10:51,120
county illinois

324
00:10:54,870 --> 00:10:53,200
i was out bass fishing with my buddy and

325
00:10:56,630 --> 00:10:54,880
his son and another friend over at the

326
00:10:57,670 --> 00:10:56,640
cooling pond near the power plant south

327
00:10:59,750 --> 00:10:57,680
of seneca

328
00:11:01,430 --> 00:10:59,760
it was very warm that day and we decided

329
00:11:03,350 --> 00:11:01,440
to take the chance to get some late

330
00:11:04,949 --> 00:11:03,360
season fishing done before it got too

331
00:11:06,949 --> 00:11:04,959
cold to be out on the water

332
00:11:09,110 --> 00:11:06,959
we were at our usual spot over by one of

333
00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:09,120
the barriers about a mile in half from

334
00:11:12,230 --> 00:11:11,040
the boat launch where the water is about

335
00:11:13,829 --> 00:11:12,240
15 feet deep

336
00:11:16,550 --> 00:11:13,839
we were sitting around talking and

337
00:11:18,310 --> 00:11:16,560
casting our lines it was about 6 p.m

338
00:11:20,470 --> 00:11:18,320
and we were just about to wrap it up for

339
00:11:22,550 --> 00:11:20,480
the day and head on back to the house

340
00:11:24,310 --> 00:11:22,560
my buddy's son saw it first and said

341
00:11:26,230 --> 00:11:24,320
look at that big bird over there

342
00:11:28,630 --> 00:11:26,240
we all looked to see this thing fly over

343
00:11:29,590 --> 00:11:28,640
the top of us it must have been 20 to 30

344
00:11:31,910 --> 00:11:29,600
feet up in the air

345
00:11:33,829 --> 00:11:31,920
and it was moving silently it wasn't

346
00:11:34,710 --> 00:11:33,839
squawking and making noise like a flock

347
00:11:37,030 --> 00:11:34,720
of goose wood

348
00:11:38,790 --> 00:11:37,040
and it was barely moving its wings we

349
00:11:40,550 --> 00:11:38,800
watched it as it flew over us and in the

350
00:11:42,069 --> 00:11:40,560
direction of the power plant and we

351
00:11:44,389 --> 00:11:42,079
seemed that it looked like a tall man

352
00:11:46,389 --> 00:11:44,399
with really big wings it flew off toward

353
00:11:48,470 --> 00:11:46,399
the plant without making any changes in

354
00:11:50,310 --> 00:11:48,480
its path until it was out of sight

355
00:11:51,990 --> 00:11:50,320
we saw nothing else after that and we

356
00:11:53,590 --> 00:11:52,000
decided that it was enough for us to

357
00:12:00,550 --> 00:11:53,600
call it a day and head back to the

358
00:12:03,990 --> 00:12:03,110
