11 August 1977 : Odin, Illinois, USA 
Giant bird report, no UFO.
A mysterious physical anomaly and an inhuman creature were reported by a male witness (Chappell). A large gray-black bird-like creature flew out of the northeast and in a circle about 300 ft away from the observers as if looking for a tree big enough to hold it. Finally it landed near a small pond close to the house. John and Wanda Chappell described it as resembling a prehistoric bird. The head didn't have any feathers and it had a long neck, crooked, like an "S" shape. They estimated the wingspan at ten to 14 ft. It was about 4 ft high. After a few minutes it flew in a southwest direction. Hynek rating: CE3: Close Encounters of the Third Kind (Entity reports) Vallee rating: AN3: Anomalies with associated entities. i.e. ghosts, yetis, spirits, elves and other mythical/legendary entities.
