As the 2010 crop circle season approaches, a striking phenomenon has become apparent. Crop circle ghosts, or imprints of previous year’s formations, are not a new thing, but with so much oilseed rape being planted this year, they are much more visible than usaual.

Woodborough Hill is a favorite location of mine and last year on August 10th it featured what was called the Owl crop formation (Left). I visited it at the time with friends and took some photos. Yesterday, April 28th, I revisited the location to take a look at the residual pattern which has developed in the in the flowering rape.

Below is a gallery of photos I took. You’ll see in a couple of them there are some light orbs. When I entered the pattern in the rape, the first picture I took had a lovely orb in it. I Make no suggestions as to what causes these and leave it up to you.
