The Path of Discovery

Here we have yet another example of the farmer being smarter than he thought he was. I dont want to inflame farmers in way but this farmer has taken things far to far. I have spoken to a couple of farmers along my travels and some are very pleasant and some will stop and chat and some will ask you to leave their land politley - some will threaten you with words and fists and some will place a contribution box and show you the way to a crop formation. If you see a donation box then please throw in what you can - this farmer wants you to be a part of the phenomena so please show some thanks for his allowance for you to enter his land. Also please use tramlines to enter formations, dont plough through the crop !!!!!
The Allington formation received some bad treatment just like the Norwegian tourists. The farmer in question discovered this formation on his land and decided to plough his lawn mower through the outer of the inner of the formation - cutting the inner spikes and part of the sun/star tips - hence the formation looks slightly out of shape. The visible circle is where the farmer cut the formation. To the crop circle makers disapproval of this action - they returned and repaired the central design by making it smaller and added all the circles outside the formation. We have seen this type of incidence over the years as well as this season. Surely the farmer looses more crop by hacking up the crop rather than leaving it alone. Then the farmer hired a man with a gun to pounce on visitors and scare them out of their wits. Scaring is one thing but when you start shooting above their heads then the man with the gun must have know that you do not do that in this country. What was he thinking of !!! Rightfully the Police were called and an arrest was made: Story Below Courtesy of Mail On Line.
Crop circle 'vigilante': Farm worker who turned his gun on UFO hunters is arrested
By Luke Salkeld and Caroline Grant ( July 13th 2009 )
If it had been a group of aliens returning to inspect their handiwork, he would not have stood much of a chance. Fortunately for Kenneth Wilson the 'trespassers' he confronted were visitors from this planet. A group of Norwegian crop-circle enthusiasts had come in peace to see the latest 300ft creation in a Wiltshire field.

If it had been a group of aliens returning to inspect their handiwork, he would not have stood much of a chance. Fortunately for Kenneth Wilson the 'trespassers' he confronted were visitors from this planet. A group of Norwegian crop-circle enthusiasts had come in peace to see the latest 300ft creation in a Wiltshire field.
Mr Wilson, however, was determined to keep any intruders at bay and fired several warning shots at the group, it is alleged. But his stand was halted by an easily identifiable flying object - a police helicopter.
Dressed in camouflage gear the 62-year-old had set up camp in the middle of the crop circle and armed himself with a shotgun. When a group of tourists arrived to inspect the design, which is thought to represent a bird with an open beak, he opened fire and shouted at them to get off the land.
One of them, Eva- Marie Brekkesbo, 47, said: 'The gunman was dressed in full camouflage garments, had a black mask over his face and held a gun in his hands.
When I asked him if he was the farmer, he said that he was engaged by the farmer to prevent anyone from visiting the crop circle.'
She added: 'I have been visiting crop circles for a decade and have in various ways been told that we are not welcome, but this is the first time I have been threatened with a gun.
'Farmers have the right to protect their land, but they have no legal right to threaten people. It was totally unnecessary and incredibly scary.'
A member of the group called the police and with the help of an observation helicopter that was in the area officers swooped in to stop the gunman.
Mr Wilson was arrested at around 2pm on Tuesday. He was later released on bail pending further inquiries.

Reported July 10th 2009
We spent the night at the entrance to Allington formation observing the vast open fields in front of us. Throughout the night we saw various lights coming from the East Field direction.
On this night we also tried some generation 2 night vision equipment which showed us an incredible display of Plasma Orbs over the Allington formation. I have never ever seen the huge concentration of Orbs in one place. Without exaggeration there must have been several hundred all over the field. The display lasted between midnight and 1am. Truly spectacular !

Just before 5 am we drove towards East Field and spotted an indentation in the field. We looked through binoculars but thick fog hampered our vision. Later that morning we were informed that a formation was created. I now believe that what we saw was a part of this formation only , so it would appear that this formation was created and completed after 5am in the morning.
