TIME:          Late afternoon

LOCATION:   Greenback, TN Loudon, Co.

TERRAIN:       Mountains

OBSERVED:   The day before investigators were to come and check out tracks
found on my property, I heard a very strange bird-like sound coming from the
woods below my house. I had heard these sounds before, as one of the
researchers sent me a file on the computer with these same sounds being
recorded on a bigfoot hunt. It was a sound something similar to rolling your
tongue while saying the letter B.  But the pitch was much too deep to have
been a bird, because having lived here all my life, I have heard every bird
sound that is made by the native species.  Also, I have been hearing sounds
like a limb being beaten against another tree, only to have it stop when I
ventured into the woods to investigate, then start again when I returned to
the house.

ACTIVITIES OF WITNESS(ES):  Just outside walking around in the yard.

DESCRIPTION OF CREATURE:   N/A
