Recent findings suggest that the Loch Ness Monster is not part of our imaginations, that the legend of the Loch Ness may very well be valid.
The chronicle began in 536 A.D. with the first sighting of the water horse, but the first official recognition of the water horse, sea serpent, or sea monster was photographed on December 6, 1933. Over 11,000 reports document the sightings of the Loch Ness Monster. In spite of the photos, sightings, and other brief experiences, many refuse to believe this type of creature lives in the water.
Sightings of the Loch Ness Monster occur around Scotland, Florida, Massachusetts, and of course the infamous Chessie from the Chesapeake Bay. Chessie is the renowned creature that gives the Chesapeake Bay an attraction of magic and wonder. Chessie gets the name from the original Loch Ness Monster Nessie, often referred to as cousins. Most sightings occur in the summer when boaters, swimmers, and fishers are in the water, but the vast majority of Chessie sightings are from Love Point at Kent Island, the mouth of the Potomac, and the eastern Bay.
Shrine also adds, "What I'm doing is studying the Loch from so many aspects in order to find out what people are seeing, because you can't get away from the fact that they're seeing those things ... It's a very strange body of water that does some very peculiar things."
We may have more than just films and reported sightings on the Loch Ness. The Whitehaven News reported a Patron resident found a creature, washed up on shore that resembles a Loch Ness Monster baby. The lifeless creature looks like a baby dinosaur, resembling an infant Loch Ness Monster. Is this the first time we have tangible proof of the Loch Ness Monster? This finding may make it clear: http://www.s8int.com/dino14.html
Another Loch Ness researcher Alastair Boyd told NOVA (PBS), "It's the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life, and if I could afford to spend the rest of my life looking for another glimpse of it, I would...I am so convinced of the reality of these creatures that I would actually stake my life on their existence."
That's a pretty high stake for a belief, but maybe Boyd is not too far off. Sightings of Chessie, Nessie, and all the other baby or future "essies" out there, bring life to legends and beliefs. It reminds us of the message sent in the movie Second Hand Lions. The boy asks his uncle if the preposterous legend that he is telling is really true. The uncle responds, "What difference does it make if it's true or not, as long as you believe."
The ending to Second Hand Lions mirrors the ending that I predict to the Loch Ness Monster legend. For that reason alone, I believe.

Post a Commenti think it did have a egg and the egg may have hatched and now there are more in this world because when dinos were alive there was a lot of loch ness monster and the probly had eggs in the sea or something and they would mate and make more eggs because what a quensedence that it is aperring in diffrent locations over the world so think about it.
Great article, Cheryl. These things surely do attract our attention. Man was born with a natural desire to see and know of things that are bigger than he is. In seeking to satisfy this desire, we chase Yetties, and Nessies, and Corvetties. Does anyone ever wonder why we seek so hard to believe in unseen things? Thanks for the article. Excellent writing and thought provoking concepts always stir my mind to think of Jesus that most marvelous and important of all high stake beliefs.
hey email me to talk bout nessie the loch ness monster at moore.alex7@yahoo.com
This is such a cool article. Thanks. I came back for seconds/
Very interesting article, nicely written as altime.
Really interesting read !!!....
Very interesting topic.
This a great article, and now I'm here thinking about other mythical creatures, that people claim to have seen but others lack the belief in. Hmmmm.... if only you believe :)
We may never know the truth, but this was a amazing piece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been to Loch Ness (and to Chesapeake Bay, but I digress) and it is a fascinating place. And a mysterious one. I believe in the possibility of the existence of creatures we've yet to see (note all the new plants they find in the Amazon; and until the early 20th century, African mountain gorillas were thought to be a myth...) but I'm not sure about Nessie. Although the finding you report just fuels my curiosity! Well done, and a great read!
