The automatic camera is still recording photos where a ropen sighting shocked a lady this past June. It may take months more and many hundreds of photographs, but I believe this ropen in this particular neighborhood of Southern California will eventually be photographed. Until then, I’ll submit a few shots that show the camera is still operating:
.
A small bird sits above the drainage channel where we believe a ropen at least occasionally flies at night. This is photograph number 1478.
.
The above photo shows another bird. In the background is the broken wooden fence where dense underbrush is believed to be used by the ropen on occasion.
.
A possum (or large rat) walks along this chain link fence, eluding the dog that can smell but not see or hear it. A flying insect makes a thin blur on the left.

Flying Creature in Southern California
On June 19, 2012, an eyewitness saw, at close range and in clear daylight, in a residential neighborhood northeast of Long Beach, California, a “dragon-pterodactyl.” Details in the description of the flying creature make it highly unlikely to be anything other than a ropen . . .
In June of this year, in a peaceful residential neighborhood in Lakewood, northeast of Long Beach, a lady was shocked to see a featherless creature with a wingspan of at least six feet and a long tail.
