Etchilhampton Wildflower Circle

Etchilhampton Hill, near Devizes, Wiltshire

A rare circle laid in a field of poppies and wildflowers, crossing a hedge line.

Most circles appear in wheat, barley or oilseed rape. This one, about 180 feet across, was laid mostly in a field of wild flowers full of poppies, and it crossed over the boundary into the young wheat next door, which is very rarely seen.
