   They were playing follow-my-leader. Our Government has been doing it for years.

   They’re communicating with their mothership in orbit. I always thought they looked strange.

   The farmer must have driven round in a circle, dropping ewe nuts for them to eat.

   Maybe they are munching on the extra tasty growth from a Fairy Ring? Some fungi also produce chemicals that act like hormones called gibberellins, which affects plant growth, causing rapid luxuriant growth.

    An interesting visual image but don’t insult intelligence of readers by inferring something other than the circle of food. Unless the journo really didn’t realise (clean green wellies still in the car boot?)
