April 10th: Overland’s Thunderbird
Posted by: Loren Coleman on April 10th, 2012

This book is also found in a hardbound edition, Thunderbirds: America’s Living Legends of Giant Birds, from Cosimo Classics (2008), by Mark A. Hall.
On April 10, 1948, three individuals in Overland, Illinois spotted what they originally thought to be a passing plane, but after seeing a large set of flapping wings, they realized this “plane” was something very different.

Hey that picture of the indian and pterosaur reminds me of this cool movie from the sixties-a little boy gets picked up by a pterosaur in the film too.
Guilty as charged…that’s the fake picture I posted about a year or two ago about an article on how hard (or easy) it is to photoshop a cryptid…I found the picture of the Indian and a pterosaur and combined them in about 3 minutes.
If you didn’t get a chance to download a free copy of my book, take a look now…only $.99 - Clouds of Thunder
Thanks!
