I believe we have the two birds from Fort Wallace.

I found the first bird a few days ago here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/reddeadmysteries/comments/1wx89h0/bird_found_in_the_direction_of_the_birds_at_fort/

Today I found what looks like the second bird a few yards away.

They are slightly different but maintain the same format. Both are hard to see during part of the day and at some hours they are clear. They are both pointing in the NW direction although the second one is facing down. The second one has a clear bird head, but the body is bigger and not so bird-like.

On the 5th picture I show Fort Wallace's Tower in direct line, the 2nd bird, and in blue there's an arrow (this is pure speculation, but it seems very defined). Also as a curiosity, that arrow is pointing to a skull that shows up around 12:30

I don't know what it all means yet.

Hope this helps the community.

This is my train of thought:

1. u/Neenski21 found that an alternative name for the plant Bird of Paradise is "Wallace's Standardwing".

2. (Someone I would like to give credit) figure out that the distribution of the plants on the map could have the shape of a bird.

3. Fort Wallace has two birds.

4. Flip one and we have the shape of arrow.

If you are out of leads, come search that area! There's the ancient Tomahawk, there's a canoe, share what you find!

I'm just putting two posts together. This might be another "coinicidence", but the numbers from Madamme match some trains 12 (376) (451) 12. Pictures are not mine. Belongs to these posts:

By google search it looks like a orthocone nautiloid.

The problem is that it also says it's not found in the coast of Oregon, USA.

So I'm assuming it could be a fossil, but I don't know what.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

I just wanted to share what could be a glitch or maybe a mechanic we have to use.

I figured out a way to see some of the webs after their spawning times are up. Once you see them, they will disappear if you look away., though.

It's late and I only tried this order Black 2-3, B34, B45, B56 (Oil fields)

The mechanics I used:

During the same night, I went to the pole at the spawning time, shoot an incendiary arrow to the top of the pole and ride away without looking at the web. The next time you ride by,, it will still be there (I only tried a couple of hours after 6am).

Maybe we have to spawn all the webs at the same time. I'll keep working on it.

Let me know if you can replicate it and/or expand this discovery.

I've been trying to connect some dots and I would like some extra help.

Here are some arguments in support of the idea of a race against the clock.

1. The main web and our starting point is right next to a stable, to allow to choose and fortify your fastest horse.
2. In this scenario, the starting point is at 1am. Just in time to set camp next to the web and sleep until midnight.
3. There is just enough time to do the order on the picture (I've done it many times). Always riding on the train tracks. (second picture)
4. I've been trying to figure out what has to be done to the webs and I've been trying to throw fire bottles. Why? Because I was testing if the amount of feathers on the web had to do with the kind of bottle. (one feather = regular, two feathers = volatile). There are 5 options for arrows so I ignore those at the moment. But I didn't trigger anything yet.
5. Why volatile bottles? Because to make them you need animal fat and bottles. A good source of fat are ducks and Overflow area has a ton of ducks. And for bottles there's the fence on Emerald.
6. It calls my attention that the distance (going on the tracks) between Emerald and oil field is the same as emerald and Ringneck. Maybe hinting towards doing the top four first and then go south to do the red ones that look harder because there are bigger distances.
7. Recently I saw a map by Jay_0048 that show respawn areas and it also supports grouping the top four first and then go south.

I haven't tried doing all this during an infinite storm.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Edit: I tried to go from Scarlett to St Denis pole and it takes right under an hour if you go on a direct path through little roads. Same to come back to Southfield. So it's doable. Maybe we have to do top feather on first night, and red feather the following night without sleeping.

I don't know much of the back story, but this poster always struck me as a heart pierced. As far as I read, there's no connection at all, but there are tons of OG players that could potentially find a connection.

I'm of the idea that the guitar is not Fort Wallace but the end of the Spider Gorge River. But that's just me. Looking around, I found a shape on the side of the wall (picture 2 & 3). Normally I would discard it as texture. As a matter of fact there are other shapes around that in my opinion are texture (pictures 5-8).

What calls my attention is that the pointy shape is pretty dark (not like the background wall) and also one of the angles of the shape fit perfectly with the Rockstar star. (picture 4).

In this train of thought, the guitar would be related with "rockstar". The rock being the rock in the middle of the guitar. And the next step would be in the stars.

All this post is just to ask if you have seen that specific shape of texture (picture 3) around the map in order to discard this whole thing.

Thanks!
