COMMENTS: The witness's narrative:

It has 2 wings, each 6 feet long (as seen at arm's length) Her "close encounter": She and friends were observing Perseids; they all went in and she decided to have 1 last look at the stars. She saw a glow in the N sky and "knew" it was aurora borealis. However, the glow faded and she looked up and to the E when she saw what looked like something gathering or congregating in the sky some distance away. She watched as a huge craft came towards her very smoothly, and fast. It sped over her head. She watched it fly in across her 50-ft. wide yard, E to W. She could see it had an enormous pair of "scalloped" wings. There were smooth, 1-1/2 to 2-ft. rectangular protuberances of the same metallic character as the craft, sticking out from the wings in a random pattern, 6" wide, 6" deep. They reminded her of "gold ingot" shape. (She states she is surprised at her own reaction in recalling these details.) She felt unnerved and ran into the house, and locked and barricaded the door.

Within the next few days and the weeks ahead my plants started changing color but only on one half of the blossoms. Also petunias went through several color changes until they became lime green and purple. I did phone a seed nursery about this but got no satisfactory answer. I am a keen gardener and I know about plants and their growth and behavior. A crop circle was reported next day about 50 miles N, where this craft was headed. This witness lodged an official complaint with the Canadian Air Force about the low-flying craft. She received a response letter from a Colonel assuring her that it wasn't "one of their boys."
