Account

On September 8 or 9, 2020 around 11 a.m., the witness was fishing alone on the northwest side of a lake in a wildlife area. He heard chimp-like chirping from the brush less than 50 feet behind him lasting one to two seconds before stopping abruptly. He turned to look into the brush and trees but saw nothing, then quickly worked around the lake to the parking lot and went home.
