A webcam trained on a nest of eagle chicks in the woods of Michigan also catches a glimpse of something else in the wild.
Bigfoot, that mysteriously unkempt and anti-social gentlemen of the woodlands, has again made an appearance on camera in his trademark blurry yet intriguing style.
This time the legendary cryptid has apparently been captured on the CarbonTV Eagle Cam in northern Michigan. The live webcam is trained on a bald eagle nest 100 feet (30 meters) above the ground near the Platte River State Fish Hatchery.
As you can see in the video above, a dark lumbering figure walks into frame about 10 seconds into the clip. The shadowy silhouette of something clearly bipedal makes its way through the stand of trees before walking out of frame.
While the creature appears to fit the traditional description of Bigfoot, it also could pretty easily be explained as a bear or a human. Because the camera is capturing the forest floor looking down from 100 feet up, the perspective is a little screwy and it's hard to get much clarity.
Local media reported the story Wednesday, but the footage was actually shot in the spring of 2016. It was posted to YouTube earlier in the year but then taken down due to a copyright claim by CarbonTV, which then posted the clip on its own account in September.
This sighting is about on par with other inconclusive bits of evidence that Sasquatch exists, like the few seconds of something hairy captured in Sequoia National Park earlier this year.
Check it out for yourself and see what you think. One thing is for sure, though: those bald eagle chicks are ridiculously adorable.
As many of you are thinking, it’s really Michelle O. on vacation!
Its Bigfoot Jim.
Not a bear. Dude in a gorilla suit maybe.
Nonsense. The eagle nest is under observation. Someone needs to check on the camera and eaglets periodically. The people who do the checking typically wear camouflage to minimize disturbing the nesting eagles.
Moochelle trying to tear it down?
Wow! This is so awesome! Last month I got into the BIGGEST argument with my wife if Sasquatches are real or not. I can’t wait to shove this in her face!
Skunk ape...
Guy in a gorilla suit. He walks too tentatively.
People have seen/heard/smelled them in the mountains around here.
I figured she’d be occupied swatting at airplanes from the top of the Empire State Building.
Go figure.
How do you know the bigfoot is named Jim?
Wow, most men argue with their wives about money, sex, etc. You two argue about bigfoot.
I doubt if this is true. If Bigfoot is smart enough to have avoided capture all these years, he is certainly smart enough not to live in Michigan.
if he’s a democrat, he’s registered to vote in at least 20 counties
Well, my daughter asked if he’s real, and then after explaining all the proof and sightings, my wife butted in with her poorly-informed opinion.
Oh, no, it’s a bigfoot clown!
Guy in a monkey suit.
That is pretty good big foot country
“Wow, most men argue with their wives about money, sex, etc. You two argue about bigfoot.”
Funny.
