Daylight sighting by duck hunter near Pella.
Account
A man was duck hunting with his young son in a public hunting area near Pella when they paused to watch a crane. He then saw a tall, solid-white figure on two legs run across the trail about 40 yards away, moving very fast and quietly. He searched for tracks but found none because of leaf cover, then left feeling unnerved.
