Last week I read a news article about crop circles appearing in a wheat field near Wilbur, Washington which is a small farming community in the northeastern part of the state. The route of our trip to Spokane this past weekend took us through Wilbur. We were driving down highway 174 and sure enough, there was the field with the crop circles. Its not the greatest of shots because you really should view it from the air, but the rise in the road gave us a partial view of the field. The crop circles are almost an acre in size.
Since it has been several days since this was reported, you could see paths through the wheat field to the crop circles where people had gone to check them out. On our way home, there were people standing in the circles. If you google "Wilbur Crop Circles" you can find additional photos and information on when they first appeared.
This was the first time I have seen anything like this. What do you think causes crop circles -- man-made or other?

Intriguing mystery.
ReplyDeleteIf you squint, and use your imagination, it kind of looks like Mickey Mouse! :-)
ReplyDeleteI like a good mystery and this certainly is one! Interesting there is no defined path (other than those the curious people made) that lead from the circles. It is as if something landed from above. Also have to agree with another comment that said the markings look a little like Mickey. :)
ReplyDeleteThey are intriguing!! I, too, wonder what creates them??? Man made or ?????
ReplyDeleteGreat shot for the day, Sally! Hope your week is off to a good start! Enjoy!
Great shot, and I don't know. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
ReplyDeleteFreaky.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, your guess is as good as mine! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI've seen different documentaries on this...conclusions going both ways. I simply have no idea but they sure are large.
ReplyDeleteWho knows how they are formed. There doesn't seem to be a definitive answer. Just another mystery.
ReplyDeleteVery mysterious ~ great post ~ great shot ~ (A Creative Harbor)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely capture of a scenic site.
ReplyDeleteThere are usually crop circles in certain parts of England. Many of them are man made, but the strange thing is that you never see anyone making them. Once, friends and I tried to make one wtihout being seen. It was **! impossible! So I don't know how it's done. My rational side says that they must be made by human beings, because the English ones at least, are often quite humorous, and humour is something I don't really associate with aliens :D
ReplyDeleteNeat photo! I've never seen any crop circles in person, but sure have seen lots of shows saying they're man made...but it is cool and a bit scary to think maybe aliens have done some...woooo... :)
