Every bush town's got its stories about something in the scrub that shouldn't be there. This is ours: local legend and pub talk, collected for the fun of it, not filed as fact. Read on for entertainment, not evidence.
The Bucketts Way sighting
Undated
Local legend, retold more than reported first-hand. A timber-getter working the ridges off the Bucketts Way came home one evening swearing something tall, dark and two-legged had watched him from the treeline for the better part of an hour before ambling off into the bush without a sound. Nothing was ever found, no photo and no track cast, just a story that's been told at the pub ever since, growing a little with each telling. Make of it what you will.
