Initial information from sources or from an eyewitness
Incident date: 
19.08.2002
Location: 
Вольфсграбен
Austria

The witness was in the morning picking mushrooms near a small village when he suddenly saw a large flock of very large birds, which had more than 100 individuals. 

One of the "birds" left the group and swam away to circle around the witness for five minutes or so. He described this strange bird, which had a long bald head with a long beak, and something extending its head protruded from its rear skull. 

He really looked more like a pterodactyl than a bird. The only difference was that it was covered in feathers. It had the body of a penguin and a long neck, as well as short legs. 

He had a white chest and belly, while the rest of his body was completely black. Its wingspan was at least 7 feet (2.1 m).
