Footsteps in Texas
Account
The witness went alone before dawn to hunt deer from a blind made of piled logs along a power line. Something on two feet shadowed and circled him in the treeline, slapping footsteps audible. After sunrise it stood close by an oak and pine near a fence, studying him and approaching and retreating as he moved, until he raised his rifle and fled through the fence to his truck.
