The Search For Bow-Nessie

Apparently there exists a close relative to Nessie the Loch Ness monster happily swimming about in lake Windermere.

It is little more than a dark smudge near the surface of the lake but it could spark the birth of a new legend. This shadowy image is causing more than a ripple of interest among monster aficionados and to the man who took it, the picture is proof that something strange lurks in the waters of Windermere.

Photographer Linden Adams, 35, was walking in the area with his wife Louise a fortnight ago. They were at a secluded spot more than 1,000ft up a mountain when they spotted the 'creature'. "It just came out of the blue," said the father of two.

It remains to be seen just how much attention this sighting attracts and I wonder if I will come across Nessie hunters down at the lake shore when out walking Hugo.....or possibly Nessie her/him self. As you can see from the photograph it was certainly atmospheric enough when we were out yesterday afternoon at Lower Miller Ground along the shore for Nessie to rear her head out of the lake.



Perhaps we should branch out and develop a new business line, 'Nessie' spotting weekends rather than the fishing holidays that Paul is thinking about starting. Its a thought!
