I hesitated for a long time before writing this because it did not happen to me but to my younger brother.

Let me start with a little background. I live in North-America and the rest of my family still lives back home in Europe. Our relationship is not bad but not especially close. We have been through a lot. Three years ago our father took his own life in our family home. My brother was the one who found him.

I am not sure if this is connected to what happened to him later but maybe it is not a coincidence. Yesterday during a conversation he finally told me a story he had kept to himself for over a year.

About a year ago in broad daylight he went out to the terrace. The sky was slightly cloudy but bright. As he looked up he noticed something in the distance. An outline of a being about a half mile away high up in the sky. He said it looked like a three meter tall humanoid creature with the head of a hawk or an eagle and a body covered with dark brown fur. It had huge wings folded back behind it.

It seemed to float without moving and for a few seconds it looked directly into his eyes. They stared at each other for around fifteen seconds. Then suddenly the being vanished. It moved faster than the eye could follow.

He said its arms were muscular and humanlike but the head clearly belonged to a bird of prey. It did not flap its wings to stay in the air. The movements were unnatural almost too smooth too fast to be human.

My brother told the story with complete sincerity and I believe he really saw something. It happened in full daylight and he described every detail clearly. He told our mother but she did not react much and the topic was dropped. He has no close friends so he kept it to himself until now.

I did some research to understand what it could have been and the closest matches I found were figures like Horus, Nisroch or perhaps an Annunaki type being. I do not know what it means that it showed itself to him and not to anyone else. But it makes me wonder what else might exist out there hidden from the world we think we know.
