Updated Wednesday 4th August 1999
Global point of view of the 3 circles
On 23th July there was a crop circle discovered in Berkel-Enschot a
place near by Tilburg in a field of wheat. The Formation is composed by 3 perfectly round
Circles. 1 circle measures 25 metres and the other 2 measures approx. 8 metres. A
local newspaper
put the pictures of these circles on the front page. The farmer told it was probably
caused by a so called Hauw Mauw, that's in local terms a locally very strong wind/storm.

The strange nest in the middle of one of the smaller circles. Look
at the
many broken plants.
The field was visited by the DCCCS on Saturday 24th July, some samples were taken from a few plants,without the top plants, which stood right up, but had the typically slanting angle, as if something had cut of the plants. For the rest there were many broken plants. The formation was not very well visited. Only the farmer and some neighbours visited the field.
| But then I noticed some wild plants with the slanting angle, as if something had cut off the plant. You also can see a brownish colouring round the cut. Maybe heat. Anyway I took this plant as a sample. | Another sample of a wild plant that stood right up, but had no top left | Here is another sort of damage on a wild plant. Did
someone walked on this plant with a shoe or? You can notice that the Earth is very well
mixed up at the beginning of the plant. The seeds of the wheat are laying open on the
ground, which is possibly caused by birds! |
