Wood Knocks

Wood knocks are the sharp rock-on-tree or branch-on-trunk percussion sounds that bigfoot researchers treat as sasquatch communication — knock, wait, answering knock across the valley. Foresters answer with woodpeckers, cracking timber and other researchers. The protocol problem is obvious: knock in a dark forest and something will eventually make a noise. The camping accounts filed here keep their value anyway, because the knocks are rarely alone — they come with rock throws, tree shakes, and the silence that empties a ridge of birdsong.
