BOARD WORK TO KICK OFF THE SEASON AT ALTON BARNES
Two formations appeared in the same area and at the same time of year, three years apart. In both cases, the photographs were taken within 24 hours of discovery. They do not show the same on-the-ground damage. Hence the legitimate question — are we looking at the same technique (or technology, or force) behind both patterns, or two distinct methods, one of which remains unexplained?
