There were strange goings on at the farm today when a flock of sheep made their own version of a crop circle.
About 100 of the woolly creatures formed an orderly ring - baffling the farmer and passers-by.
But after hearing the roar of the boss's tractor the animals scattered like a group of naughty schoolboys.
Photographer Russell Bird, who captured the amazing scene, said:"I was quite taken aback. I couldn't believe what I was seeing," he said.
"I did see a dog worrying sheep nearby beforehand and the dog ran off round the hedge in a different field, so I don't know if they were discussing that."
Bizarrely, he then spotted another circle three fields away, but was unable to take a picture with both "formations" lasting around 10 minutes before dispersing.
Estate agent Mr Bird added of the scene in Kington, Herefordshire: "They moved around inside and were almost filling the gaps in.
"The only reason this circle came to an end was that the farmer came in with a tractor and some food."
Since the event he has been searching for an explanation but those experienced in working with sheep say Mr Bird could be disappointed.
Farm manager at Herefordshire College of Technology, Dan Seaborne, said: "I just think they've been fed with dry feed in that shape - you can get snacker feeders now and you tow behind a quad and it drops pellets on the ground.
"I would imagine that's what's happened."
He added: "I think there was a chap in Yorkshire who spelled out 'will you marry me' to his girlfriend in sheep by putting feed down."
Wellllllllll, brings a new meaning to circle the wagons or some such . . .
Curious. That it happened twice within a relatively short span of time is interesting. Therefore what, I don’t know.
I certainly believe that . . . spiritual forces . . . FALLEN ANGLES/NEPHILIUM/WATCHERS/ETs could have managed such a manipulation any number of ways.
I wool like to wait for more information before making a guess as to what’s going on here, either mortal or bovine.
“Cows have social stars”
do they have a moossiah?
Duck Duck Goose ?
I ran across that a few months or so ago.
No explanation; that would be for sure.
Interesting.
I suppose . . . not.
Though they can sure have one big bullish critter of a . . .
bull.
So was there feed laid down in a circle or not?
But we are not telling.
