Account
In fall 1987 the witness was archery hunting with a relative in Michigan when wood-on-wood knocking was heard to the west. About 15 minutes later a nearby small pine shook violently from side to side with no animal visible. The witness left the area for lunch shortly afterward and noted no odor.
