Man describes his childhood observation in daylight on a farm outside Langley

BFRO YEAR: 87 or 88 close to noon Langley, BC, Canada., British Columbia 2 witnesses

Account

Around midday on the family's farm, the witness and an adult tenant saw a very tall brown ape-like creature cross an open field from the woods toward a barn a few hundred feet away. The creature walked hunched forward, turned to look the witness in the eyes for a few seconds, then ducked slightly to enter the barn. The tenant fled by car while a relative working on a door lock nearby did not see it.
