August 23, 2003 Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – Even though the crop formation season has ended in England because most fields have been harvested, it has been evolving in Canada since July. At least fourteen crop formations have been reported in provinces ranging from British Columbia to Saskatchewan and Ontario – some eerily similar to the British pictograms of the early 1990s.

August 21, 2003 - Avebury, Wiltshire, England - This morning I talked with reporters, Lewis Cowen and Tamash Lal, respectively at the Wiltshire Gazette & Herald in Devizes and Evening Advertiser in Swindon, about the multiple eyewitness sighting of a black and white rotating disk over the Avebury stone circle on Saturday evening, August 16, 2003, after 9 p.m., near dark. The reporters concluded in their stories that the object was a "prank," either a camouflaged microlight or remote-controlled model, but neither has any substantive proof. I also talked with eyewitness, John Pearce, resident of Winterbourne Monkton, who is quoted in the articles, but his version is different than the media's.
August 20, 2003 - Avebury, Wiltshire, England - Twilight was shifting to darkness at the Red Lion Pub in Avebury when people walking inside the big stone circle began to yell and point toward the sky. About thirty witnesses sitting outside the pub looked toward the shouts. A black and white disk-shaped object was slowly rotating about 200 feet above the center of the Avebury stone circle.
August 11, 2003 North Down, Wiltshire, England – Yesterday, a new 750-foot-diameter formation in wheat was reported between Morgan’s Hill and Cherhill Down directly east of the four tumuli and 11-concentric-ring formation of July 6, 2003 in North Down. From the air, the pattern contained 61 circles that alternate dark and light – the light being flattened crop and the dark standing. The circles create a 3-dimensional object that has three branches that resemble a hexagonal-structured molecule.
August 5, 2003 Devizes, Wiltshire, England – On Sunday afternoon, August 3, 2003, a new formation was reported at Morgan’s Hill on the other side of the North Down where the four tumuli and 11-concentric-ring formation was discovered on July 6, 2003. The next morning, Monday, I traveled to the formation and was impressed with the springy feeling the crop had under my feet. There, I met up with photographer and video producer, Bert Janssen, who has studied the geometry of crop formations for several years. He has produced two award-winning documentaries, Contact and Crop Circles: The Research. I explained to him that I had counted twenty-eight rays coming off one side of the large central flattened circle and seventy-eight coming off the opposite side. He walked around the top rays and into the large central circle trying to see if the rays lined up with the center “fountain” of wheat. They did not and the formation’s geometric structure became a challenge to understand.
July 31, 2003 Devizes, Wiltshire, England – I arrived in Wiltshire early Tuesday morning, July 29, 2003, after the Glastonbury Symposium and went directly to Woodborough Hill in Alton Barnes. The East Field, beneath Adam’s Grave and Knap Hill, is famous for receiving crop circles over the past decade and was still untouched by patterns. So was the spring barley across the road extending up to the base of Woodborough Hill. I could hear a helicopter, then another, which began circling over Woodborough and then on to the East Field, moved on to West Stowell and back around again. The helicopters were hovering, then lowering down toward the fields and then rising back up again. I had seen these same maneuvers back in August 2000 during one day that seven of us did a night watch at the East Field and watched through a night vision scope as an oval-shaped light jumped from side to side and changed shape into a bright square.

July 23, 2003 - Northumberland, Pennsylvania - On August 2, 2002, 39-year-old Todd Sees said good-bye to his wife and two young children as he set off on what was supposed to be a half-day trip to look for deer hunting sites before the season opened. Sees got into his 4-wheel drive truck and headed for the top of Montour Ridge. But his family began to worry that afternoon when he hadn't returned and by August 4, the local police were contacted. A search party of at least two hundred people was organized.
While the search was underway, stories began circulating on the internet that a farmer had seen a silver disk up over the ridge area put down a beam of light and had seen a man's body rise in the beam of light. Then on August 6, Todd Sees's body was found 140 yards from his home where he was last seen alive on August 2. But the police and his wife wouldn't talk to the media and more rumors started that the body had been found nude or only slightly clothed, that it was disfigured or dried up somehow, that the FBI was investigating, and that tissues from the body were being sent to a federal laboratory.
July 21, 2003 – A sampling of recent formations in Wiltshire and Hampshire counties of southern England where so far, there have been forty-five formations reported in 2003. And an eyewitness report below about strange orange lightning seen from Knap Hill the night before a formation was reported at Windmill Hill on June 22, 2003.
Hackpen Hill, Wiltshire – Reported July 20, 2003
July 18, 2003 Defiance, Missouri Unusual patterns in cereal crops around the world have provoked some people to wonder if the formations are a warning that the Earth’s environment and food supplies are not guaranteed and in fact, might be seriously threatened. The past ten years on Dreamland radio and now Dreamland Online, I have interviewed dozens of scientists about problems in the air, land and sea, including increasing extinctions of plant and animal life. Now comes a new study reported in the journal Science which shows that in only thirty years, the amount of coral reefs in the Caribbean have declined 80% from what they once were.Click for report.
