‘Just let my dog out, standing by the door. It came in the door from the left and hovered right next to my left ear for a second, then went out the way it came in and went right with extreme speed and precision. Its wings made a low humming sound. It was not a dragonfly or a bird. Flying away, it looked like a bright silver light.’ ‘It hovered with a classic wing-beating sound.’ Fairies are ‘an ancient earth race’. ‘It could have been a sylph.’
