Account
While deer hunting at sunset, the witness stood on a stump and heard a loud whistling sound with swirling pitch from a hill to the right. About 75 yards away he saw a dark upright figure about 6-7 feet tall facing him that stayed motionless for 15-30 seconds. He then climbed down and walked back to his truck without being followed.
