Axel S. was driving in his car on the way to his cabin on the Pequot Lakes. When from the window he noticed a large black brown figure. 

He looked again and gave a little squeal when he realized that it was a very large bird-like creature. He looked almost like the mythical "Moth-Man", except that his red eyes, where the vulture's head and neck resembled, seemed very wide. The witness was seized with an incredible fear, and that night it was difficult for him to sleep. 

The creature was sitting in a large tree about 17 feet (5.1 m) off the ground, was more than 4 feet (1.2 m) wide and 6 feet (1.8 m) tall (wings were tucked in). The red eyes were not as prominent as those of the "moth-men".
