Have you ever wondered what the aliens that make the crop circles do during the winter when there is blowing snow and no crops to disturb? I’m assuming you prefer the alien theory over drunken villagers but either will do as crop circles are most definitely seasonal.

Apparently they (who ever they are) roll giant snow balls which sounds almost as much fun although not quite as decorative, but give them time.  I won’t be that surprised if they start showing up in artistic patterns.  Although this article is quite dismissive of the crop circle connection you can see a picture and decide for yourself whether this is a freak of nature or the work of really bored extraterrestrials.  I’m particularly fond of the statement ‘world’s most remote and frozen regions’ which apparently means the American mid-west.
