New giant bird sighting in KC makes number 19

Giant bird sighting report number 19 was received in my office on August 4, 2019. A man by the name of Alex was driving on 291 Highway in Independence, Missouri on Monday, July 29 at 5:00 pm when he noticed a very large bird circling high overhead. He pulled over to get a better look at the dark-colored creature because the size was so amazing. Alex said that it was similar to the shape of an Eagle, but way too large to be a bird of that type, and that it must have been something else. He was unable to get a photograph.

291 Highway is located on the east side of Independence, Missouri. Many similar reports have been made (see my articles posted earlier). 

UFOs over KC June 20 were not weather balloons

By ASD MO Margie Kay

Multiple UFO reports were filed with the Mutual UFO Network and the National UFO Reporting Center during the week of June 20, 2019, regarding large white orb-shaped objects in the skies over Kansas City, Missouri. A total of three of these objects were visible over a six-hour period and witnessed by thousands of people. The event was covered in local and national media.

The National Weather Service was contacted after multiple witnesses called local TV stations in an effort to find out what the objects were, and the NWS Tweeted “We honestly have no explanation for the floating objects over Kansas City,” which prompted a plethora of theories about aliens in the skies over KC.

DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) release a statement on June 20 which indicated they released three high-tech balloons on June 18, 2019 “Last night, DARPA launched three balloons from Cumberland, Maryland, in a flight test for the Adaptable Lighter Than Air program. Over the next few days, ALTA will demonstrate capability for wind-borne navigation of a lighter-than-air vehicle over extended ranges. The goal of the Adaptable Lighter Than Air (ALTA) program is to develop and demonstrate a high altitude lighter-than-air vehicle capable of wind-borne navigation over extended ranges,"

"The balloons can fly at altitudes of more than 75,000 feet. While they do not have independent propulsion, the ALTA vehicle is designed to navigate by changing altitude and thus taking advantage of different wind profiles aloft. A state-of-the-art Winds Aloft Sensor (WAS) is also being developed on the program, which is intended to provide real-time stratospheric wind measurements.” the agency said on its website.

Right now, balloons can only stay in one area for a few days before shifting winds take them elsewhere. But as the MIT Technology Review reported, ALTA’s wind sensor—originally designed for NASA satellites—is built to spot wind speed and direction from long distances and recalibrate as necessary to stay in one area as long as needed. The location is in the stratosphere. Unless the DARPA made an exception and lowered the altitude of their balloons to 2,900 feet, this would eliminate the balloon theory.

Witnesses said that the objects did not behave like balloons. The three objects remained in the sky over Kansas City for six hours, which is unusual behavior for balloons since balloons travel on prevailing winds from west to east. People reported seeing similar objects in New Jersey, St. Louis, and Kansas City in an east-west pattern, which is the opposite to the direction weather balloons travel.

Unexplained dark objects in video frames

Missouri MUFON Field Investigator Larry Tyree analyzed three videos submitted by witnesses in two different locations at the same time. Amazingly, Larry found 20 other dark unidentified objects in the sky around the three large white objects. The video was analyzed frame by frame in order to see these other objects which were moving very fast and seemingly checking out the large white orbs. Some of us have been investigating what we call the “Fast Movers,” which are UFOs that move so fast they are usually not trackable by the naked eye. These can only be viewed by looking at many video frames.

Several other UFO sightings were reported on June 20 and several days before and after this event. These include brilliant red orbs at treetop and ground level in the Waldo area of Kansas City; 18 transparent kidney-shaped rods at tree level we witnessed by MUFON Field Investigator James Bair; two metallic oblong objects were witnessed over Excelsior Springs (Northeast of Kansas City); and one sighting of a bright blue object which caused the witness (myself) to have light sensitivity since the event on the evening of June 20. In my case, I noticed a bright blue object on top of a streetlight at 10:00 pm and watched it for approximately 30 seconds, after which it shot off to the SE at extremely high speed. Immediately after this sighting, my eyes became extremely sensitive to light and this has not eased up.

Three sightings of giant birds were also reported by witnesses on June 20. There have been 18 sightings of giant birds with wingspans measuring 12’ – 36’ feet in the KC area in the past few years which witnesses describe as an unknown black bird, a legendary Thunderbird from Native American legends, or a Mothman. It is unknown whether the birds are related to the UFOs, but it is odd that the Mothman sightings in Point Pleasant West Virginia in the 1960s were accompanied by unexplained UFOs and orbs seen by may people. Although seemingly unrelated, the bird sightings should not be taken lightly. Either there is an unknown cryptid on the loose or 18 people have hallucinated something. Another explanation may be that some of these are drones. I had a hawk swoop over my car just this morning and I heard a humming sound at the same time. This may be indicative of drones disguised as birds, which further complicates the issue.

The Kansas City Chapter of the Mutual UFO Network hosted a special Town Hall Meeting on July 15, 2019, at the Ararat Shrine Temple in Kansas City, Missouri in order to present information about the recent UFO sightings during the week of June 20, 2019, and to take more reports. The group usually expects about 20 – 25 people to attend, but 150 people crammed into the room for this special meeting after it was covered in the Kansas City Star, USA Today, KCTV5, FOX4, Yahoo, and other news media. Field investigators James Bair and Jean Walker spoke to witnesses and took their first-hand accounts. It was clear that people want answers to the UFO question in general, and especially what was in the skies over KC on June 20.

Larry T’s analysis of case #101330 shows that there are additional objects in the sky near the large white object. After finding dark-colored objects traveling on a straight-line trajectory, Larry was able to merge frames together in order to show the path of the objects. This is related directly to MUFON case 101408 (in Liberty) because they were both witnessing the same event and taking videos at nearly the same moment. The Liberty sighting was 21.5 miles NNW at 336 degrees. NUFORC had 5 sighting reports of the same two white objects on 06/20/2019. All these sightings occurred between 1900 and 2000 hours.

The white objects/craft were calculated to be 37.4 feet in length at 2,954 feet in altitude. The DARPA balloons are designed to remain in the stratosphere, so it does not make sense that the objects over Kansas City were the DARPA Balloons.

As with the other two cases, small black craft were seen in frame by frame analysis to do flybys of the two white objects. Larry calculated one of the black crafts to be moving at a speed of 8,200 MPH, leaving one to conclude that the dark objects were U.S. military aircraft or craft of unknown origin.

Our conclusion is that the white objects viewed by many people over Kansas City on June 20 and the dark fast-moving objects that were only visible by looking at video frame by frame remain unidentified, even though the media is perfectly happy with the intimation by DARPA that they were special weather balloons. With the many UFO sightings and strange giant bird reports, investigators in the KC area are perplexed as to what is going on in our area, but we are determined to find answers.

Town Hall Meeting in Kansas City: UFO and Giant Bird Sightings

Multiple UFO reports were filed with the Mutual UFO Network during the week of June 20, 2019. We will discuss these reports and show video and still photographs of the objects. The public may file sighting reports at the meeting.

The Kansas City Chapter of the
Mutual UFO Network is hosting
a special Town Hall Meeting on
July 15, 2018 at the Ararat
Shrine Temple at 5100
Ararat Drive, Kansas City,
Missouri in order to present
 information about the
recent UFO sightings during
the week of June 10, 2019.
Several sightings of giant
birds were also reported. Field
investigators will be on hand to take sighting reports from the public.

The number of reports is unusually high. Some objects may have
 been High-Tech balloons from DARPA, but an investigator captured images of other objects flying near the balloons which are currently
unidentified. Other reports included small bright red orbs and
transparent rod-shaped objects at tree level. Investigators are
currently working on these reports.

The town hall meeting will begin at 6:00 PM and the regular
MUFON meeting will start at approximately 7:00 PM. Both
meetings are open to the public.

$5.00 admission covers both events.

For those who wish to order dinner the restaurant will begin serving
 at 5:00 pm in the meeting hall. The easiest way to access the
meeting hall is to park in back of the building and go in the back
door then turn left and go through the restaurant.

What is the Giant Bird Flying Over Kansas City Skies?

Quest Paranormal Investigation Group just received another report of a giant bird sighting in the skies over greater Kansas City. But unlike the previous eight sightings located in Independence and Sugar Creek, Missouri, near the Missouri River, this event occurred in Overland Park, Kansas approximately 20 miles to the southwest.

On Sunday, June 16, 2019, a man and woman were driving to their home in Overland Park when they noticed a very large bird flying overhead. "The bird was completely black and was enormous," said one witness. Neither witness could identify the bird. At first, they thought it must be a Condor, but it was much larger. It flew north and out of sight.

This makes gigantic bird sighting number thirteen received by Quest Paranormal Investigation Group, located in Independence, Missouri. Other witnesses describe huge birds with wingspans up to 25' or more. One witness in Sugar Creek saw a bird on June 20, 2019, that was as large as a small plane. (See previous articles on this blog).

Some witnesses speculate that this creature may be the Mothman, a creature seen at Point Pleasant, West Virginia for several months prior to a disastrous bridge disaster in 1967. In his 1975 book The Mothman Prophecies, author John Keel claimed that the Point Pleasant residents experienced precognitions including premonitions of the collapse of the Silver Bridge, unidentified flying object sightings, visits from inhuman or threatening men in black, and other phenomena.

There have been similar events in greater Kansas City. On June 20, 2019, two unidentified objects hovered high over the city for six hours. The objects were captured on video and the story was covered on national news. Some people thought they were weather balloons, but the National Weather Service said they were not weather balloons. DARPA claims that they were high-tech balloons they released on June 17. However, the analysis of the video shows multiple objects, not just three. 

On the same day, QPI received reports of unidentified objects that looked like rods, another report of red orbs in the Waldo area of Kansas City, Missouri, and an unexplained brilliant blue light in Independence. The entire K.C. area has been a UFO hot spot since 2011. Could these things be related as they seemed to be in Point Pleasant prior to the bridge collapse?

QPI investigates unexplained sightings of UFOs, cryptid animals, and haunted locations. Contact Margie Kay, Director of QPI at 816-833-1602 for more information or to report your own sighting. 

Two Witnesses See Mothman or Giant Bird on June 20 in Independence, Missouri

Two independent witnesses in Sugar Creek and Independence, Missouri reported seeing a Mothman or giant bird on the same day. 

Sugar Creek, MO
6/20/2019
4:00 pm

Valerie Hoover was outside in her back yard when she heard a small plane flying overhead.  She looked up and saw a small plane flying from the Southeast to the northwest, but she wasn't prepared to see a bird nearly the same size as the plane.  An extremely large black bird was flying above the plane in a circular pattern. She watched it for five minutes as it flew downward, then up again, then it flew off to the Northeast and out of sight. 

She was shocked to see that the bird’s wings were as wide as the plane's. Valerie speculates that it could have been a moth man due to the size. The creature was too far away for her to  see any features, but it did not look like a turkey buzzard, eagle, hawk or any other large bird that she has seen before. “It certainly was much larger than any bird I’ve ever seen, and perhaps it wasn't a bird at all - it may have been a mothman,” said Valerie.

Although Valerie could not identify the type of plane she saw she did recognize that it was a small engine plane. The most popular small engine four -passenger craft is the Cessna 172N Skyhawk with a 36' wingspan and 27' body length. If the bird was the same size, that is one very large creature. 

Second sighting: 

Independence, Missouri
6/20/2019

6:30 pm

Later that evening at approximately 6:30 pm, another witness saw a giant bird. Terre T. lives in east Independence, Missouri. She heard the birds outside her home suddenly get very agitated and start squawking and screeching, so she ran outside to see what was going on. Her first thought was that there may have been a hawk chasing a small animal, but what she saw stopped her dead in her tracks. 

She heard a loud screeching coming from a very large black bird, which had just flown over her house. Terre did not recognize the bird as anything she's seen before. It was all black with fluffy feathers, not smooth and shiny like a crow's feathers. She estimates the size of the wingspan to be at least five to six feet, but can't be certain. The crows and other birds in the trees continued to squawk for several minutes after the giant bird was out of sight, so something agitated them. The creature was heading north and flew out of sight. Note: the Missouri River is north of this location) Terre also speculates that the creature is a Mothman or an unknown type of bird.

According to Wikipedia, the California Condor is the largest bird in the United States. It has a wingspan of 9.5 feet. However, Condors do not live in the Midwest region, so that eliminates the Condor unless there is a rogue bird here. Even so, the wingspan is still not large enough to explain Valerie's sighting or some of the past sighting reports (see my earlier posts).  

These two sightings combined with the six reports already on file, make a total of eight giant bird or Mothman sightings in the same general area in Independence, Missouri in the past few years. (UPDATE:  As of 12/12/19 there have been 24 reports received by QPI). 

So what is this creature?  Photos received so far are not clear enough to see what it is. 

It is interesting to note that there was a mass UFO sighting in Kansas City on this same day. Is this a coincidence?

1984 Bat-Like Creature Sighted at Monkey Mountain

After I posted the article below about gigantic bird-like creature sightings in East Jackson County, Missouri I received emails from other witnesses. 

Two people who were visiting Monkey Mountain Nature Preserve east of Oak Grove, Missouri saw an unusual creature while hiking there in the summer of 1984.  She and her husband both saw a 7-foot plus tall humanoid/bat-like creature with very large wings standing next to a tree. The creature fluttered its bat-like wings as they approached on a trail, and both people stopped dead in their tracks. It was near dusk, but the witnesses could see the creature clearly. 

Monkey Mountain Nature Preserve

 "It had a bat-like face and a man-like body. The wings were not spread out, but you could tell they were huge. The first thing I thought was that it could have been the Mothman," said the witness. "It had glowing red eyes, and that was the scariest part of the sighting." 

The woman and her husband slowly backed up, then turned and walked back down the trail, not looking back. 

It should be noted that a lot of strange events have occurred at Monkey Mountain, including multiple sightings of Sasquatch and a chupacabra like animal, strange noises and animal calls that can't be identified, and a general eerie feeling of being watched. Some people who have visited the area won't go back. 

In the 1970's a group of people recorded sounds at Monkey Mountain and later had them analyzed in the 2000's by a voice and audio expert, who determined that the calls were not from a human being or any known animal.

UFO Investigators Encounter Sasquatch

A group of five seasoned UFO and Sasquatch investigators were working together on a case involving multiple UFO sightings near Union, Missouri in October of 2018 when they encountered something they weren't expecting.

The team was on a cove off of a river at approximately 9:00 p.m. when one they all heard the sound of a large tree limb being broken in half. The location of the sound was across the river in the woods. The area is surrounded by trees and deep woods and it is not all accessible by road. One of the investigators said that it may have been a Sasquatch letting know we are in their territory, as she couldn't imagine that a person was in the woods at that time, and there was no sign of a camp or fire, and no clearings in the area for a camp.

About 30 minutes later the entire group heard what can only be described as chattering coming from the same area across the river. Chattering is often associated with bigfoot and may be a means of communication.

Drawing by investigator JW

The group continued their UFO investigation using high-powered binoculars and night-vision binoculars. One team member viewed something walking in the woods through her night-vision binoculars at approximately 10:00 p.m., and she believes it was a Sasquatch. The location was on the same side of the river where the investigators were standing. She described the creature as being furry all over and light in color, although the night vision technology may have distorted the actual color. It was walking upright on two legs and she was able to see all of the creature from the knees up as it walked at a medium pace through the heavily wooded area. Since it was extremely dark outside, it is hard to conceive of a human walking that quickly through the woods, especially without a flashlight.

Taking everything into consideration, the team believes that there may be several Sasquatch in the area, which they plan to investigate further in the near future. The team prefers to remain anonymous at this time.

Gigantic Winged Creatures Sightings

1/31/18: In the past two weeks three witnesses have seen a creature with gigantic wings in Independence, Missouri – and one was my own. This, added to the three giant bird sightings already on file- makes SIX sighting reports in the same area. 

The first sighting was reported by a woman who was headed to her car after work on the evening of Friday, January 12, 2018. She heard sounds like something was flapping and running on the ground towards her from behind. She thought the flapping sound was a plastic tarp that was tied over a crate, but she thought the running sound was someone chasing her. She did not look back - but ran to the car door and jumped into the driver’s seat, then quickly closed and locked the door.

At that point, the woman noticed that there was something black in her rear-view mirror, then the entire car became enveloped in very large feathered black wings from the back around the side windows, and finally covering the front windshield. She was petrified. She could not see anything through the windows except blackness and could not see the body of whatever it was. Then, as quickly as it came, the creature disappeared. She did not see where it went. She was too afraid to get out of the car, so she called her son, who was still inside the building where they both worked.

A check of the security camera at the business showed nothing on camera during the time of the event, other than the woman running to her car and getting inside. Since there was no wind that night, the flapping sound could not have been the plastic tarp. What could have made sounds and be visible to this woman, and not show up on a security camera?

The next evening, I would see my own giant creature. I was outside on my deck sitting in my hot tub at about 11:30 pm when I heard a sound that drew my attention to the trees located on railroad property in the back of my house. These trees are on the opposite side of the tracks and they are about 100 feet away from where I was located. 

I was astonished to see a pair of gigantic wings spread out across the front of the trees as if a huge bird was sitting on a branch with its wings out. I could barely make out an indefinable body shape between the wings. It was dark out with the only light coming from the streetlights 300' feet away. Then movement caught my eye to the right in trees on my property. There were several undefined dark masses in these trees that were moving but silent. I turned back to look at the huge wings but they were gone. I noticed that there was no wind and it was dead calm, as it was the night before. I could not tell if the creature left, or if it may have brought its wings down and was still sitting in the trees, but I decided not to stay to find out. This was just too weird for me, so I went inside the house and locked the door.

A couple of days later I received a call from Jean Walker, a local investigator I often work with. She said that a woman saw a giant bird the size of a small plane flying over her house in Sugar Creek one evening this past week at about 11:00 p.m. This location is near the Missouri River and Independence. The witness often sees UFOs over her house, and at times has seen ET’s. Both Jean and I have seen and heard strange things at this person's house, but never a giant bird. 

In 2013 there was a giant bird sighting in east Independence by a local woman and her two sons. She said that this creature flew, or rather glided, silently over her house and was the size of a small plane. It had a long straight tail with a puff of feathers at the end of the tail. I did some research and could find no such bird listed anywhere. I then called the Missouri Department of Conservation and they knew of no gigantic birds like I described.

In 2015 my daughter, grandson, and I were standing in the front yard of my office in Independence at dusk when we noticed a very large bird flying overhead. It was flying very high (approx. 1,000 ft) and was extremely large. My grandson took a picture of it, then looked up the shape on an app. The closest thing he could find to match the shape was an albatross, which is not found in this area, but that does not explain the size. We don't know if there is any relation to the recent sightings. 

Is it possible that some type of gigantic winged creature is flying the skies over Independence and landing on cars?  If so, where is it hiding out? Perhaps in one of the many caves in the area or trees or bluffs along the Missouri River, which is just a few miles away from most of the sighting locations mentioned, and blocks away from the Sugar Creek sighting event.

It should be noted that a giant bird was reported along the Missouri River near St. Louis about 15 years ago. The witnesses said it looked like a Pterodactyl. We have no way of knowing if it was the same bird, or a species related to the same bird that is being seen in Independence, however, the Missouri River flows from the Independence area to St. Louis. The creature may be something that is navigating along the river. There are numerous caves and bluffs along the river areas where something big could hide. 

Several people have speculated that this creature is the Mothman, and is a portent to a coming disaster.

I submitted an inquiry to the Missouri Department of Conservation and here is what they said:

"The largest bird wingspan in Missouri is a bald eagle at 80” (just shy of 7 feet). A bald eagle would be fairly easily recognizable and would not perch on a car, but soar high above or seen perched at a distance. A turkey vulture would, however, perch on a car and has a wingspan of 67” (about 5.5 feet). Not large enough to cover an entire car, though.

No bird in Missouri has a 20-25 feet wingspan. The largest wingspan of any flying bird is the critically endangered California Condor, only found in tiny pockets in the far west."

I would like to hear from anyone who has seen similar creatures, no matter where you live.

Joshua P. Warren discussed these events on his podcast on February 18, 2018

Possible Sasquatch Calls Heard Along the MIssouri River

Investigators working on multiple UFO sighting reports in Sugar Creek, and Independence, Missouri have occasionally heard what are possibly calls by Sasquatch in the area.

Jean Walker and Margie Kay have been working on multiple UFO reports in the Sugar Creek and Independence, Missouri area along the Missouri River for approximately five years. Some witnesses have described hearing very loud screeches and screams that come from two or even three creatures at the same time, who seem to be communicating with each other from different directions. Both Margie and Jean have heard the calls as well while on site for investigations, but the witnesses who live on the sites have heard these yells on numerous occasions.

Location of Sasquatch sightings or screams

Three men saw a Sasquatch walk out of the woods and look at a stream in the Sugar Creek Conservation area a few years ago (see my previous article on this subject), so we know that Sasquatch are in the area.

The most recent event occurred in November of 2018 east of Independence, Missouri along 24 Highway in a rural area with farmland and houses. A family was having dinner when they heard what sounded like a girl screaming very loudly. They ran outside to see if they could find the girl, but didn't find anyone. Luckily, the event was captured on audio on their HD security system, and it has been analyzed by investigators, who believe that the scream was most likely a Sasquatch since it could not be identified as any known animal.

Seasoned Sasquatch investigators say that it is typical for Sasquatch to sound like a girl or woman screaming, although louder than what you would expect from a human.

All of the sites in question are near heavily wooded lands and are located close to the Missouri River. There would be ample food and water supply for Sasquatch in the area. Investigators plan to search for signs of Sasquatch structures in the area in the spring of 2019.

Anyone who has encountered a Sasquatch or heard unusual loud screams is encouraged to contact Margie Kay at margiekay06@yahoo.com.

Bigfoot Caught on Live Eagle Cam!

A video posted to YouTube on September 15, 2016 has gone viral with over 1.6 million views. The video was captured on a Carbon Media Group Eagle Cam who partnered with the Department of Natural Resources in a remote part of the state of Michigan. The video was captured in the spring of this year but only recently reviewed and posted. 

In the video a large hairy figure walking on two legs appears in frame, looks around, then jumps over a couple of logs and walks out of frame. The distance of the leaps appears to be longer than what a human would be capable of but this can only be determined if the location is made available to researchers. 

See the original posting here: https://youtu.be/r34Sqv-iblc
