"— ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Reuters) - A bird the size of a small airplane was recently spotted flying over southwest Alaska, puzzling scientists, the Anchorage Daily News reported this week.

The newspaper quoted residents in the villages of Togiak and Manokotak as saying the creature, like something out of the movie "Jurassic Park," had a wingspan of 14 feet -- making it the size of a small airplane."

It is quite possible that those crazies :D :P in our Northern state have nothing better to do than make up stories about over grown animals. Any hard evidence ? No. Any corrobating witneses? No.

Heck we have a hard enough time finding one sniper let alone some large bird shaped object.

It could have been one of those unmanned planes that the military uses for bombing and reconnesonace.

Sorry for spelling you know what I mean...??

It was pretty good, everyone I know who saw it liked it cept for a few people....

I thought there was gonna be more action, but I guess sometimes a lot of action could be too much.

I'd recommend seeing it if I were you, prob. hafta wait till it comes to blockbuster or somethin :)
