📝 Description
I was out deer hunting down in a valley on my Dad's property and right as the sun was beginning to break I heard a loud scream. I looked over in the direction of that scream and saw something black as far as I could see and then it just disappeared. I don't know if this has anything to do with it either but our deer population has dramatically decreased over the years.
🔍 Circumstances
No unfortunately just me. I have never told anyone except my wife because they would think I was crazy.
🌤️ Weather Conditions
