Kisah dan tradisi
Sebagian orang percaya ada monster danau di Windermere, danau terbesar di Inggris menurut panjang, luas, dan volume, mirip monster yang konon hidup di Loch Ness. Pada 2011 diambil foto-foto yang janggal dari makhluk yang diduga itu, dan ia dijuluki dengan sayang "Bownessie". Menurut NBC News, namanya diambil dari Bowness, kota setempat; artikel Wikipedia bahasa Prancis menyebutnya penghormatan bagi "sepupunya" Nessie. Artikel Wikipedia bahasa Prancis menggambarkan Bownessie mirip ular laut atau plesiosaurus. Menurut NBC News, foto yang diambil rekan kerja yang berkayak tampak menunjukkan benda hitam berpunuk banyak; Pickles, salah satu pemotretnya, menggambarkannya sebagai ular cokelat tua raksasa dengan punuk sepanjang tiga mobil. Para skeptis menyebutnya bisa jadi tipuan. Setelah klaim baru wisatawan pada Februari 2011, Dr Ian Winfield dari Universitas Lancaster menyatakan tidak ada ikan sebesar gambaran itu yang bisa hidup di Windermere, dan danau itu diperiksa tiap bulan tanpa pernah ditemukan hal semacam itu. Menurut The Telegraph, foto baru itu cocok dengan gambaran Steve Burnip pada 2006; hingga saat itu sembilan orang mengaku melihat Bownessie.
Some people believe there may be a lake monster in Windermere, the largest lake in England by length, area, and volume, like the one alleged to live in Loch Ness. In 2011 anomalous photos were taken of the supposed creature, and it has been affectionately nicknamed "Bownessie". Per NBC News the name is taken from Bowness, the local town; the French Wikipedia article calls it a tribute to its "cousin" Nessie. The French Wikipedia article describes Bownessie as resembling a sea serpent or a plesiosaur. Per NBC News, the photo taken by colleagues kayaking appears to show a multi-humped black object; Pickles, one of the photographers, likened it to an enormous dark brown snake whose humps stretched over three car lengths. Skeptics say it could be a hoax. After fresh claims by tourists in February 2011, Dr Ian Winfield of Lancaster University said no fish as large as those described could live in Windermere, and that the lake is surveyed every month with nothing of the kind ever found. According to The Telegraph, the new photograph matched Steve Burnip's 2006 description; to that date nine people had claimed to see Bownessie.
