It's better than the others, but not as good as I'd like.

Me to  He said it looked like a manatee do you think that's what it is? |

Not a manatee, that's for certain. It looks just like Nessie always looked, just a bit clearer.

I just don't know  Could it be a seal, sea lion, or walrus? I remember a few reports of people seeing it on land. Did they say that guy that took the photo gives Loch Ness tours. That raises a red flag. |

Yes, it rather does. There is a theory that Nessie may be a type of plesiosaur. It looks like it may be a thalassomdeon to me. In fact there has probably been several of these living in the loch for a very long time. www.plesiosauria.com/thalassomedon.php |

Does that thing have gills?
If Nessie was and air breather I think that we would be seeing a lot more of her.

I don't know, it may be able to hold it's breath a long time, though. Will have to look at the old pleosaurs to see what if anyone came up with an idea on how long they were able to stay underwater.
