Is there a monster lurking in Loch Ness ? Image Credit: CC BY-SA 3.0 Riccardo Speziari
A veteran Nessie hunter has captured footage of something strange moving across the surface of the loch.
There are few Loch Ness Monster enthusiasts as prolific as Eoin O'Faodhagain who has, over the last few years, recorded dozens of sightings of anomalous objects and disturbances in the waters of Scotland's most voluminous loch.
This latest clip, which was captured via a webcam at the Clansman Hotel on October 25th, shows what appear to be two large humps protruding from the water.
"Two sections of this creature can be visibly seen rising out of the water as it moves at a steady pace - a large front hump, and a larger second hump behind," said O'Faodhagain.
"Both humps are black to dark grey in color, but visually striking in the environment. I was ecstatic and captivated by this large, fast-moving, unidentified animal out in the deep water of the loch."
"My only instinct was that this could not be anything other than the Loch Ness Monster."
Based on the footage, O'Faodhagain estimates that the creature was 25ft in length.
"It rises about three feet out of the water," he said.
"There are no known creatures in Loch Ness that have dimensions like this one."

Could this be evidence of the Loch Ness Monster ? You decide.
Well whatever it is it's moving from right to left and the waves are moving from left to right. So it's not going to be a log or any other drift on the surface as it would be moving with the waves.
And definitely a wood log floating. It has to do with prevailing current flows not just waves. I saw something similar recently at local river and lig was moving against prevailing river flow. Not small river, usually large slow moving water bodies. Lake currents are no exceptio. Definitely log. This is cleverly exploited because it fools the eyes.
And yes nothing 3 foot out of surface, barely a foot, which is what a floating wood log does. And 20 feet is overactive imagination from the person who took the video of the wood log. I would say might be another kind of log rather than nessie, or Bessie or whatever they call their tourist bait.Â
correction. It has to do with prevailing local current flows at the spot which can be very local indeed, and different to the overall prevailing water current or wave direction. That's why things like this are exploited because it does fool the eyes.Â
