Family has strange experience while picnicking, tells of strange calls nightly near home
Account
A couple with an infant stopped to picnic by a stream after noticing young pines snapped high off the ground. While eating and wading, both felt intensely watched for about half an hour but described no watcher. They left feeling spooked and only discussed the feeling a week later, when the husband also mentioned snapped trees behind the picnic spot.
