In line with the 2011 reports of Bownessie, here’s a flashback bit of news, with photos, from February 2007, for those who missed it. It does seem remarkably similar to the new photo, in overall outline.

Here’s the 2007 image of the Lake Windermere’s “Bownessie Monster.”

Linden Adams, 35, according to a London newspaper has taken a new photograph (above) of an object that may be an unknown cryptid in Cumbria’s Lake Windermere. It is not Nessie but the eyewitness Adams feels his new evidence may help solve the Loch Ness mystery.

The creature was reported to be 45 feet (15 meters) long and left a large wake. Despite the fact the water was calm and still, Adams said the “thing appeared, diving and thrashing around.”
