UK's first crop circle of 2019 discovered

An intriguing pattern of circles has been filmed and photographed in a field near Warminster, Wiltshire.
While these days crop circles are generally believed to be the work of artists rather than alien visitors, the phenomenon still manages to generate quite a bit of interest whenever a new design shows up.

This latest example was discovered in a field at Norridge Wood near Cley Hill, Wiltshire.
Exhibiting a somewhat basic pattern, the crop circle consists of two concentric rings with a row of three smaller filled-in circles positioned along its center.

Crop circle enthusiasts believe that the design may depict an electrical generator or some sort of celestial alignment, however it remains unclear exactly what its creators actually had in mind.

A close-up drone flyby of the design can be viewed in the video below.

Eh. I've seen better. The hoaxers are getting lazy it seems.

What's the point of all this? Why are people of the West Country doing this stuff? It's a joke. Dr Horace Drew said 'there is no indication at present of any ... man-made actions in its formation.' Is he blind? It's obvious that in each part of the design the crop has been flattened in a repeated concentric manner. The design has NOT been impressed onto the field from above in one single action.

It's very pretty. Humans are indeed truly imaginative when it comes to art in a wide range of degree.

If I caught someone doing that to one of my fields I'm sure I'd get "truly imaginative" on their arses.

I've seen a LOT better, but it seems they always show up when nobody's looking.....I wonder why that is.......hmmmm....oh, I bet the aliens are shy...that's it. Has anyone ever 'ratted' out their buddies about doing these things? You have to admit that some of them are very intricate and would have taken a good sized crew a fair length of time to construct them. I suppose GPS would be beneficial or a theodolite back in the day (I'm a retired land surveyor, so it would be a piece of cake to lay out).

This one is a bit simplistic and imperfect... Not as impressive as they used to be. The tire tracks leading up to it leave little to the imagination.

Honestly this one strikes me as more of an artistic endeavour as opposed to inciting the whole 'ET' side of things.  There are clear indications that humans did this and they don't appear to have tried to hide that fact (given the obvious tracks), especially in comparison to some of the more eccentric hoax circles. Maybe someone was bored?    Edit: ...Very bored.

All crop circles are made by human artists. To believe anything else is willful ignorance.

Some crop circles which were reported over the years are truly fantastic and beautiful. Relatively easy to make only that it takes a lot of time. To make it look pretty and symmetrical does take skill indeed. This one ain't perfect, seems to be small but looks nice  Ambient is so relaxing.

Did you ever wonder why an advanced civilization would try to communicate with us by squashing corn? I am not sure I want to meet them.
