An Eastern Washington woman contacted me about an incident that she had while she was in a tent on her grandparents' property. Did she have an encounter with a massive cryptid bird?
I received the following account:
“Hi, Lon. I recently watched your 'Unsolved Mysteries' episode on Netflix. I decided to contact you directly about an encounter I had. My experience happened in eastern Washington in a town called Leavenworth on Seagull Creek Drive.
I was on my daughter’s great-grandparents' piece of land. They had a mountain behind their house. We parked on the edge of the woods. There was a grassy field behind us. We put the tent up. We had the van. We had a cooler and everything and my boyfriend at the time, he had woken up and he had made himself a sandwich and then went for a walk in the woods.
As I was lying there and I was sleeping I heard an incredible 'whooshing' sound that woke me. This is so hard to explain. A loud whooshing sound, like, 'Whoosh! Whoosh!' Then, all of a sudden, my tent started collapsing from the velocity and force of these wings that were so big. I’m inside the tent now, keep in mind, so I don’t actually see it except for the huge shadow of it. The tent was made of thin plastic and was creature was backlit by a floodlight nearby. It must have been an 18 to 20-foot total wingspan.
I woke up to this and just freaked out! I crawled out of under the plastic. This is the strange part. My boyfriend had put on top of the cooler a loaf of bread and whatever this was, with the talons, it picked up the loaf of bread and was like screaming as it flew away. It dropped the loaf of bread about 20 yards away.
I mentioned the incident to my grandfather, who is a police officer. He said that there are no birds near the size I described in the region. But he didn't tell me that I may have imagined the size. He said that a few unexplained creatures had previously been reported in the area, including loud whooshing sounds heard by others.” R
