WELCOME TO THE CFZ BLOG NETWORK: COME AND JOIN THE FUN

Half a century ago, Belgian Zoologist Bernard Heuvelmans first codified cryptozoology in his book On the Track of Unknown Animals.

The Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ) are still on the track, and have been since 1992. But as if chasing unknown animals wasn't enough, we are involved in education, conservation, and good old-fashioned natural history! We already have three journals, the largest cryptozoological publishing house in the world, CFZtv, and the largest cryptozoological conference in the English-speaking world, but in January 2009 someone suggested that we started a daily online magazine! The CFZ bloggo is a collaborative effort by a coalition of members, friends, and supporters of the CFZ, and covers all the subjects with which we deal, with a smattering of music, high strangeness and surreal humour to make up the mix.

It is edited by CFZ Director Jon Downes, and subbed by the lovely Lizzy Bitakara'mire (formerly Clancy), scourge of improper syntax. The daily newsblog is edited by Corinna Downes, head administratrix of the CFZ, and the indexing is done by Lee Canty and Kathy Imbriani. There is regular news from the CFZ Mystery Cat study group, and regular fortean bird news from 'The Watcher of the Skies'. Regular bloggers include Dr Karl Shuker, Dale Drinnon, Richard Muirhead and Richard Freeman.The CFZ bloggo is updated daily, and there's nothing quite like it anywhere else. Come and join us...

GLEN VAUDREY: An unsettling revelation



Late last year I started to paint The Book of Revelations as a way to pass those cold winter evenings but it wasn’t long before I had to put the paint brushes down as I started to write my next book Sea Serpent Carcasses Vol.1 Scotland ( due out this summer in case your interested).

Back to the paintings, it was about a month ago when I happened to find the concept painting for the Revelations series and on taking a photo of it for my records I was rather surprised with the picture, actually I was somewhat shocked by the photo, it looked like the painting had come alive which considering the subject matter was a little unnerving.

Taking further photos of it I eventually managed to get a picture that actually looked like the painting in front of me.

But the question has to be is the painting haunted or is it just some very bad camera work?

Back on the subject of Sea Serpent carcasses, do you have any information on a carcass found at the Prestwick Airport (near Troon) in 1944? My informant swears up and down it was the real deal.

In the Ebay listing of the painting, is there only one shot of the painting that is different from how it naturally looks? I'm just wondering if there is anything worth noting in the two close-up shots, which are of different scenes.
