THE overnight appearance of dozens of bizarre crop circles in a field
of sorghum has spooked a Sunshine Coast hinterland farmer and his
workers.
The phenomenon, which was accompanied by loud "zapping
noises", a flash of green light, lost power and barking dogs has
the Gowen family of Glass House Mountains flumoxed.
Fifth generation land owner Kel Gowen said he
was woken about midnight on Wednesday by two loud "zaps".
His farm hand, Noel Brady, whose cottage
overlooks the 4ha of sorghum, said he was also woken by the first
zapping sound, which was followed by the loss of power and bright green
flashes.
Mr Gowen said it was only during a routine
check of his property early yesterday morning that he noticed the 30
flattened circles in the sorghum.
Mr Gowen said his family had never taken notice
of stories of crop circles or UFOs.
