Vasily Petrovich tells the following story:

It was in the early 80s. I was still young then. So, I went to the fields. When I loaded the cart and began to return, I noticed a strange bird in the sky. She was just huge, bigger than a heron (her wingspan was 3-4 meters, her body was also long). She had an unusual, predatory shape. I have never seen such birds, although there are many in our area, and there are large ones.
