REPORT DETAIL

Description of event: As I returned home one night this past October 2010, I pulled into my driveway in the front of my house. As I pulled in, my headlights illuminated the brush and forest area to the left of my house. As I exited my vehicle and walked toward my front porch, I heard a sound very similar to the Sierras audio recording posted on your website. The only difference was that the sound I heard was much, much louder, and I couldn't understand why my neighbors had not heard the sound as well. I felt as though I had angered whatever made the sound, by inadvertently flashing my headlights on it. It seemed to be an angry warning call. The sound lasted between five and ten seconds and was very intense. Additionally, over two years prior during the same time of year, I was awakened at 3:00am by two unknown creatures calling to each other. These sounds emanated from the same exact area from which I heard the louder noises this past October, though they lasted approximately thirty minutes. I went outside to investigate. It was pitch black outside. As I rounded the side of my garage, I stood frozen listening. It was unlike anything I'd ever heard. It was alarming and made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I was afraid to proceed any further and just stood there listening, amazed at what I was hearing. My cell phone rang and the sounds immediately stopped. The reason I moved to this location next to the forest and the river was because I wanted to be close to nature. I may have gotten more than I bargained for.
