A strange animal resembling the legendary Loch Ness Monster has allegedly been spotted in England, nearly 150 miles from Scotland's Loch Ness, where the monster is said to call home, Web Pro News reported. Over the years, intense speculation through eyewitness accounts coupled with numerous photos and videos have kept the mystery creature alive in headlines.
A British photographer taking scenic pictures at Lake District National Park recently captured the image.
Ellie Williams, 24, of London, said her camera was capturing automatic pictures at England's Lake Windermere throughout the day in an attempt to photograph some of the park's wildlife.
It wasn't until Williams was looking through the images that she spotted an interesting photograph of a large-shaped creature that appears to clearly be moving throughout the series of shots, according to UPI.
However, Williams stopped short of suggesting the creature could be the much hyped Loch Ness Monster taking a trip from her traditional home at Loch Ness in Scotland.
"When I reviewed all the images I thought it might have been a swan or a goose, as I was looking at the image on my smartphone," Williams told The Mirror. "I'm open to suggestions as to what the creature could be - I'm just glad I put the camera in the right place at the right time."
Obviously, it remains unclear whether the creature pictured in the photo is similar to the Loch Ness Monster or just a trick of the camera, but Williams confirmed that none of the images had been altered or edited in any manner.
The rumored beast, nicknamed "Bownessie," was first sighted in 2006. Since then, tourists have reported witnessing a Nessie-like creature at the park.
Meanwhile, other animals or creatures resembling the Loch Ness Monster have also been spotted in England's lake district over the years. Considered to be a local mascot of the area, the creature has earned itself a Twitter account, according to WPN.
