New Crop Formation
In North Dakota

Hi, Jeff....
 
BLT has received photos showing a lovely new "thought bubble" type crop formation in a wheat field near Northwood, North Dakota. Similar formations have occurred here in the States in years past and quite a few of this basic design have been documented in the UK over the years. A North Dakota pilot flying out of a nearby airfield has stated that he flew over this field early last Friday (Aug. 19th) and did not see the formation, but that it was there when he came back in to land later that day....thus suggesting this one may have occurred in daylight on the 19th, within a few-hour time period.
 
The aerial image, below, shows a track into the formation which was made by the pilot once he had landed, there being no pathways in, or other tracks seen, upon this initial investigation. The crop is fully mature, tightly-planted wheat and now most of the field has been cut (the farmer left a small amount of standing crop around the formation itself). The largest circle is approximately 70' in diameter, the smallest 6-1/2' in diameter and the crop lay is counter-clockwise in all five circles.
 
 
 
 
Field investigators report that it appears that many of the circle "centers" are not in the geometric center of each circle and that the 4 smaller circle-centers are lined up in a straight line, with the larger circle's center being considerably angled away from this line. Apical (top node beneath the seed-head) node elongation and some node-bending are being reported, but so far no expulsion cavities (holes blown out at the lower nodes) have been seen. Initial reports indicate that the plants were bent over at the base, rather than broken (as would be expected in such mature, dry crop if the circles had been mechanically flattened). The farmer reports that the crop lay was very hard to the ground and the photos below show both this and one of the tightly-swirled centers.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Additional investigative and sampling will be carried out over the weekend and we hope to be able to post a full report on the BLT web-site when the field and lab-work is completed.
