The Loch Ness Monster or Nessie as we locals call her, deserves her own webpage being the world famous character she is. If you are just learning about the Loch Ness Monster for the first time I would highly recommend that you review the article in Wikipedia . This is a good summary of sightings, commentaries, and thoughts both by believers and skeptics. But after all your reading and studying I would encourage you to come over on vacation and experience Loch Ness for yourself.

I am going to use the posts on this blog to examine the evidence for the existence of Nessie (Nessy) and to answer some of the comments put forward by skeptics. But I would love YOU TO HELP ME. If you have professional experiences of operating sonar, analyzing photographs, or other related skills you can be of great help in the discussion here. Please contact me via the Contact Me page.

The model shown in this image to the left encapsulates all the most common features described in many of the sightings reported in the last 100 years or so.

There is one feature not shown here and that is the ‘triple hump’ described by some watchers. But this may be evidence of the watcher seeing more than one monster as the sightings were at some distance from the viewer. It is highly unlikely that a single animal could have survived hundreds of years even if it has long hibernations. But it might not have been necessary for there to have been male and female nessies if they are asexual in nature. It could be they are born pregnant like the fictional Godzilla.

It seems as though the Loch Ness Monster (Nessie) may have woken up as sightings are now coming in after a gap of several years. This intriguing video was apparently shot by a little old lady on her phone camera in January this year (2015). See what you make of it.
