"before selling that picture to the Post."
Hey Sueleen-I never thought of that. Do you think they would buy it?

Posted: 11/16/08 at 7:39pmThe suggestion of a bird with outstretched wings and head down sounds fairly reasonable to me (at least substantially more reasonable than my suggestion of lost sea otter).

Posted: 11/16/08 at 7:43pmAre you guys seeing this photo clearly and largely enough? Because to me it's clear that there's no bird, no beak, no wings. I see a very heavy, ape/man face on a rounded hairy body.

Posted: 11/16/08 at 8:04pmI only see a blue question mark, but to give you an idea, I'll post the original photo in its entirety, so you can see the whole tree.

Posted: 11/16/08 at 8:07pmI'll do it later, but I can tell you that the thing is about the size of a human.
#61re: This is REALLY scary.....
Posted: 11/16/08 at 8:08pmI don't see anything resembling musculature. My first response when seeing it for the first time was a black garbage bag snagged on a branch being filled with wind.

Posted: 11/16/08 at 8:24pmThe light is being reflected from the bridge of the nose down to the end of the nose, on the brow area and on the chin. there's a definite facial form separate from the rest of the body.

Posted: 11/16/08 at 8:30pmJane, where's the body? I don't see it... I only see a blobbish shape to the side that looks like a deformed pageboy haircut. Is it hidden behind the leaves?

After looking at & altering the colors I see something.

Here's how I see it and i probably have the best view of it, and have been studying it.
Plus, we can all look at the same thing and see something different.
I see the face turned to one side which supports my theory about the blob on the top left being the shoulder, as if the thing is trying to maneuver its way out from inside the tree. I know it's inside the tree because along the bottom, there is a scalloped edge of all the small leaves which are in front of the thing.
I wish this were just a plastic bag, but it's so clear to me that it isn't, that I'm frightened by it.

Jane, send it to Monster Quest on the History Channel. Perhaps you can be on the next season.

Posted: 11/16/08 at 8:45pmI just don't know what to do about this, NGD.

(sorry - I just had to!)
I googled Skunk Ape and this is what came up...
I truly can't figure out what it is, Jane!
But I have to believe it's a bird or a rare black panther or something...
But, who knows!

A few people thought it was a bird, but I don't see any indication of that. It's a pretty burly and muscular thing.
I can't stop thinking about it and what to do.

Posted: 11/16/08 at 10:22pmIs Schmerg climbing trees again?

You all might think I'm playing a joke on you, or it's a fake
Nonsense, Jane. Why would anyone ever think either of those things about you?

"Nonsense, Jane. Why would anyone ever think either of those things about you?"
I have no idea, PJ. I'm just so intrigued by this thing that I want everyone to know that it's real.

Okay, what? How did you figure out that I'm secretly a skunk ape? I've been trying so hard to conceal my identity online? Were you tipped off by my posts about "Censored Scenes From King Kong" and my constant refrain of 'he's hot' when shown pictures of apes?
