Lake County Bigfooot Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) Yesterday I realized anything that wants to travel in the marsh and not leave prints can walk in the Cat Tails, or step on the grassy areas only, I could do it fairly easily myself. It is in the adjacent woodlands I would have my best chance, but I did not see anything there. I am starting to question if they are back since summer at all, the sounds I have recorded do not provide me with enough evidence to suggest their back with certainty, and I have not found prints...I concur that the geese and the deer were dumped by hunters, that is logical given the location. What this teaches me is that you have to slow down your own excitement and reaction to anything, and sift thru it before you come to any conclusions, Bipto from the NAWAC turned over the clip that had the 3 whoop sounds to colleges and they thought it might be a long eared owl, I listened back to the clip and that would explain it. The whoops I heard earlier in the summer were far more distinct and humanish to explain away, so I will persist to try to document those sounds, as well as look for prints, albeit I might give myself a winter break. The recording and playback are time consuming, unless I am just doing it for fun, and to learn elimination information so I am better prepared for future events. Stan Courtney thought the whoops were geese as I originally thought as well, but got caught up in the technological squirrel cage that leads to confusion, The sounds were not clear enough to distinguish them do to their quality, so that is another aspect of elimination I learned.

Sunflower Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Ok I listened to the long eared owl, compliments of Cornell but the sound you recorded does not sound the same. Your sound is higher pitched and thin. The long eared owl has a very healthy tonal sound plus it does not vary from a one note call. Yours has a lilt to it that sounds like it's something small???? What type of goose would make a call like yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lake County Bigfooot Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) Yah, but I cannot prove anything to anyone one but myselfand what I need is a visual or footprint, then I will atleast know my present query is not in vain, and yes Sunflowerthe recording does have something of interest to me, butcannot be taken as evidence. Happy Thanksgiving to one and all, be safe and remember to leave a little leftovers for the big guys.

Guest Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Well Lake keep on chugging: maybe one day you will be able to see a bigfooties; hopefully for your sake it'll be a urbanity human mooching small fry squatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lake County Bigfooot Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 (edited) I was on break from my Squatchbreak, My wife thought she heard a whoop in the morning and I was thrust back into the arena...Now I have a lot of studying to do for my tests with the PGA, I have to complete by mid December.

Lake County Bigfooot Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) After hearing things over those three nights, the marsh has gone really quiet. So trying to pin down better the sounds I heard on those recordings is not going to happen anytime soon. I do not feel that my efforts have been in vain, I have learned many interesting things in this process. I am not convinced of anything, neither that animals of a common variety made the sounds I heard, nor that is was truly the big guys, but simply a mystery yet to be solved. I owe this clip to Woolybooger, he did a real nice job of bringing the action forward 3 whoops junior going off edited.wav Edited November 30, 2013 by Lake County Bigfooot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lake County Bigfooot Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) I still need a clear sighting or a print, maybe they'll deliver it for an early Christmas gift. After all I gave them a good amount of my Turkey left overs...whoever them are.... Edited November 30, 2013 by Lake County Bigfooot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lake County Bigfooot Posted December 1, 2013 Author Share Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) Sorry it's Boolywooger, not Woolybooger as stated. None the less thanks for the nice editing. Edited December 1, 2013 by Lake County Bigfooot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunflower Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 LCB, Just relax and sit down somewhere in your favorite spot in the woods. Simply "be" and they might come to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I suggest anyone looking to go sasquatch hunting to head as deep into the forest as possible. Not your city park or backyard. Even with most U.S. states I doubt a sasquatch(s) could go undetected (though certainly not all). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lake County Bigfooot Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) 46 years of being outdoors, months of camping in remote areas, none of this has brought me into contact with the creature. But moving adjacent to this marsh and becoming aware of them has brought me a whole lot closer, I suspect that if I just continue attempting to document the activity and pay attention I will have an encounter of a more significant variety right here in my backyard, albeit only 100s of acres large. Enough of my self absorption, somebody else needs to help me get the Urban topic back to life, I mean the last comment by Jonathan illustrates the common perception that these creatures could not go undetected in more populated areas like where I live. Anyone questioning the population around me need only listen to a few of my recordings littered with cars and planes, trains, and in the summer the drone of boats on nearby lakes, all this makes up my area that I truly believe is home to a small family of Sasquatches. I suspect from the vocalizations I heard, a Mother and Juvenile, and a much more reclusive male. I think they are here in spurts of several weeks then gone for several more, have not pinned that down, though the pattern seems to bring them around at some point during the month. If this holds up thru the winter I will be very surprised. Edited December 2, 2013 by Lake County Bigfooot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
