daytime around dinner time
Butterfield, Arkansas
1 witness
Account
As a young child visiting grandparents in Arkansas, the witness approached a small furry baby crawling near a compost pile by a fence. A much larger creature appeared in light through the trees, pointed between the baby and the child and motioned for the child to come closer. When the child's grandmother called for dinner, the large one blended into the background and additional figures moved away down the fence line.
