While fairy circles are quite common on the ground where I am living now, on the edge of what was once referred to as Utah's Fairyland, and a nearby trail is called Fairyland Loop, and the tall spires of red limestone are often called fairy chimneys, I have yet to see any actual fairies in this harsh landscape. But with patience, it was sometimes possible to spot them among the colorful tropical foliage of Hawaii, not dissimilar to that where LeJays has found fairies.
