Portugal: UFO Photographed in Monte Novo
By Rui Chaves/Carlos Varela
A UFO was photographed in Monte Novo between Reguengos and Evora
on Monday, May 31, at approximately 14:30 hours. Four people at
the site - two engineers and two students, did not notice the
presence of the object until they checked the images picked up
by the digital camera. Eduardo Silva, 25, of the Instituto de
Soldadura e Qualidade (ISQ) took the photo as he performed a
water quality survey on the waters of Monte Novo, Vigia and
Caia.
"I Didn't See Anything Strange"
"I only noticed it when we saw the photograph. That's when we
started saying it was a UFO, but I only gave it importance when
I saw the news," explained Eduardo Silva. "It was very hot and
there were no birds about, or balloons or helicopters," said the
author of the photo. CM reported on last Thursday that the
Portuguese Air Force had followed the tracks of a "spindle-
shaped" object which had crossed the national air space. On
Monday, Colonel Barbosa of the Armed Forces High Command
explained that they were currently "cross-checking information
from the radar images and eyewitness accounts."
The officer said that "if possible" any news would be made known
"shortly." The photo provided to CM shows no signs of tampering.
The reflection of the sun on the apparently metallic object
agrees with the shadows of the trees shown in the photo.

| The Unidentified & Creatures of the Outer Edge
- Jerome Clark & Loren Coleman Back in print for the first time in decades! The Unidentified and Creatures of the Outer Edge, the classic early works of Jerome Clark and Loren Coleman, now in a special double edition with a new introduction by the authors.
The Unidentified finds the links that connect supernatural folklore, religious visions, cryptozoology, and modern-day UFO stories. It documents episodes from the fringes of human experience and exposes what they may tell us about ourselves and the strange world we live in, where things – whether fairies, ghosts, divine apparitions, or ostensible extraterrestrials – may be even more mysterious than they seem.
Creatures of the Outer Edge surveys the cryptozoologically bountiful decade of the 1970s (and more) with accounts of Mothman, Owlmen, Thunderbirds, Phantom Panthers, Devil Dogs, Texas Big Birds, and, yes, of course, Bigfoot. Some of the individually 'named' local Bigfoot creatures first appeared in this book, including Momo (Missouri Monster), Lake Worth Monster, Murphysboro Mud Monster, the Enfield Thing, El Reno Chicken Man, Noxie Monster, Navajo's Skinwalkers, and Yukon's Bushman. The book also introduced the now-iconic Dover Demon for the first time to the general public.
