FORTEAN BIRD NEWS FROM THE WATCHER OF THE SKIES
What has Corinna's column of Fortean bird news got to do with cryptozoology? Well, everything, actually!
In an article for the first edition of Cryptozoology Bernard Heuvelmans wrote that cryptozoology is the study of 'unexpected animals' and following on from that perfectly reasonable assertion, it seems to us that whereas the study of out-of-place birds may not have the glamour of the hunt for bigfoot or lake monsters, it is still a perfectly valid area for the Fortean zoologist to be interested in.

DAN HOLDSWORTH: A welcome mobile phone application
https://guardianproject.info/2017/02/24/combating-fake-news-with-a-smartphone-proof-mode/
Jon,
This would be quite nice to see on mobile phones.
What it does is uses modern encryption to demonstrate that what the camera on a phone is recording is what the sensor saw, and that this hasn't been diddled about with in any way.
If there's a bit of uptake of these sorts of apps, then the days of the insert-a-ghost camera apps are numbered.

THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN DOES SOMETHING INTERESTING
The Gonzo Daily: Thursday
I would like to say that I am staggered by the behaviour of the British
newspapers. But I’m not. Although I have been a journalist for many years, it is
not a career path of which I boast and I basically agree with Robert Heinlein,
who wrote “if you have to write, do it in private and wash your hands
afterwards”.
This week Her Majesty’s Press was full of stories announcing that “the Loch
Ness Monster has been found” and “conclusive proof of Nessie”.
This is all because a young lady visiting Loch Ness took photographs of a
blurry something near the edge of the lake. Truthfully, it could be anything,
although it is better than many so-called Loch Ness Monster photographs in that
it is not an obvious fake!
But, what is it? Truthfully, I have no idea, but it certainly isn’t
conclusive proof of anything.
And now, here is the news:

SPECIAL NOTICE: If you, too, want to unleash the power of your inner rock
journalist, and want to join a rapidly growing band of likewise minded weirdos
please email me at jon@eclipse.co.uk The more the merrier really.
* The Gonzo Daily is a two way process. If you have any news or want to
write for us, please contact me at jon@eclipse.co.uk. If you are an artist and
want to showcase your work, or even just say hello please write to me at
gonzo@cfz.org.uk. Please copy, paste and spread the word about this magazine as
widely as possible. We need people to read us in order to grow, and as soon as
it is viable we shall be invading more traditional magaziney areas. Join in the
fun, spread the word, and maybe if we all chant loud enough we CAN stop it
raining. See you tomorrow...
* The Gonzo Daily is - as the name implies - a daily online magazine
(mostly) about artists connected to the Gonzo Multimedia group of companies. But
it also has other stuff as and when the editor feels like it. The same team also
do a weekly newsletter called - imaginatively - The Gonzo Weekly. Find out about
it at this link: www.gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.co.uk
* We should probably mention here, that some of our posts are links to
things we have found on the internet that we think are of interest. We are not
responsible for spelling or factual errors in other people's websites. Honest
guv!
* Jon Downes, the Editor of all these ventures (and several others) is an
old hippy of 57 who - together with a Jack Russell called Archie, an infantile
orange cat named after a song by Frank Zappa, and two half grown kittens, one
totally coincidentally named after one of the Manson Family, purely because she
squeaks, puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown
cottage deep in rural Devon which he shares with various fish. He is ably
assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his bulldog/boxer Prudence, his elderly
mother-in-law, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus.. did we
mention Archie and the Cats?
TODAY'S BIG CAT NEWS
There are so many of them now that we feel that they should be archived by us in some way, so we are publishing a regular round-up of the stories as they come in.
The worldwide mystery cat phenomenon (or group of phenomena, if we are to be more accurate) is not JUST about cryptozoology. At its most basic level it is about the relationship between our species and various species of larger cat. That is why sometimes you will read stories here that appear to have nothing to do with cryptozoology but have everything to do with human/big cat interaction. As committed Forteans, we believe that until we understand the nature of these interactions, we have no hope of understanding the truth that we are seeking.
