Typical Night Sounds: East Texas Habituation Site (November 2011 Update)

To viewers seeking visual drama, this video is not for you. It simply presents Sasquatch in its natural habitat when operating near a residence. This is a patient, percussive species, and the sounds contained in these audio clips exhibit typical behavior when an outsider (in this case, me) is present. They sometimes make loud, intimidating knocks (as you'll hear in the first part) and then, when it becomes clear that the outsider is not leaving, they switch to a longer-term study of the interloper--making much subtler noises (often all night long, but separated by long silences) in order to provoke him into reacting, to get a rise out of him, to determine what he's made of and whether he constitutes a theat. Note the variety of surfaces used and sounds produced, as if the striker is trying to find one that finally provokes a reaction. I slept in my car in the backyard the first night, and the second night, in my car behind the chicken coop.

@playaninja1 Ah Ok...gotcha. Thanks!!!!

@Treepeekers Yeah, what you're hearing is the train whistle, it just gets cut off because he stops the sound clip to go to te next one.

[impossiblevisits]

@Treepeekers Hmmm, I can't hear it, but it might be there anyway...

[Treepeekers]

@impossiblevisits Oh really? I don't hear the whistle. This is close to the mic. It sounds like what I hear them do here in FL. It's like a monotone "Hmmmmm" sound. Then again, they're excellent imitators, too!

@Treepeekers Thanks, you guys! After I returned home to Vermont, I asked the home-owner to check the chicken coop roof. She found rocks, clods of dirt, and a small piece of wood up there. When I return, I'll video these, audio-test them, and post an epilogue to this video. Treepeekers, I think what you may be hearing at 3:11 is the start of a far-off train whistle.

@MrShagoB When you've experienced it repeatedly...you know. It's all in the experience! You can even be a believer, but until you experience it...no words can properly describe the feeling you get and EVERYONE has the same reaction, to a greater or lesser degree and depending on the circumstances.

What's so awesome about it is that, anyone can experience it for themselves with a little bit of knowledge, commitment and love!

@impossiblevisits It's truth..not proof. ;)

@bigfootagent These are fully, intentionally thrown rocks...I've heard them and had them thrown "at" me enough to be completely certain, especially combined with the knocks and grunts. It's using different pieces of wood, trees and even rocks to knock with.

You can do a simple experiment by recording the sounds of both and comparing them...you'll be able to tell the difference for sure.
