July 25, 2004 Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – I talked this week with Paul Anderson, Director of Canadian Crop Circle Research Network (CCCRN) in Vancouver. The crop circle season so far has brought four patterns which began with a simple ring in pasture grass on June 24, 2004, near a small town called Erb’s Cove in New Brunswick. Over the past decade, New Brunswick has had reports of very few crop formations in contrast to Saskatchewan and Alberta which have had the most. From Paul’s research of Canadian history of the phenomenon, he has found 233 reports between 1925 and 2004. Saskatchewan is the center of activity, “sort of like Wiltshire is in England,” he says.
First Canadian formation of 2004 reported on June 24, near small town of Erb’s Cove in New Brunswick, Canada, between Maine on the west and Nova Scotia on the east.
July 24, 2004 – Last night on Coast to Coast AM radio, I reported about the earth’s weakening magnetic field and the many reports I receive about large populations of birds disappearing or even dying. I also asked the Earthfiles and radio audience to let me know about bird anomalies. I have received so many reports today that I am sharing some of them from various regions of the country.
E-mail # 1 – Lusk, Wyoming:
“I recently moved back to Wyoming after a 30-year stint in California. One of the first things I noticed was the lack of birds here. The state bird is the Meadowlark and I have always loved listening to them. They are gone.Click for report.
July 23, 2004 Wiltshire, England – Between July 11 and July 23, 2004, sixteen crop formations have been reported in southern England, the majority in the country of Wiltshire which has been the heart of the modern British phenomenon since at least the late 1980s. To keep up with news about English crop formations, see Cropcircleconnector.com and other websites included in the final segment of this report.
“A reversal could knock out power grids, hurt astronauts and satellites, widen atmospheric ozone holes, send polar auroras flashing to the equator and confuse birds, fish and migratory animals that rely on the steadiness of the magnetic field as a navigation aid.”
– The New York Times, July 13, 2004
A graphical representation of the total magnetic field strength at the Earth’s surface inferred from the latest International Geomagnetic Reference Field, the IGRF2000, valid until 2005. The red-to-yellow colors indicate a field strength below the mean Earth’s total magnetic field strength. The blue-to-black range represents a field strength above the mean field at the surface. The most pronounced minimum field strength is found in South America and in the South Atlantic below South Africa. Graphic produced from Danish Orsted satellite which measures Earth’s geomagnetic fields.
July 23, 2004 Santa Cruz, California – Magnetic field lines have been coming out of the south pole and entering the north pole of the earth for the past 780,000 years. That is called the magnetic dipole. But now scientists have been monitoring the strongest change humans have ever recorded in the magnetic field at the surface of the earth’s internal iron core four thousand miles down. The result, according to French geophysicist Gauthier Hulot, is that the South Atlantic below Africa and South America now have a magnetic field that is 30% weaker than the rest of the planet. Already some satellites passing over that weak magnetic field have suffered electronic failures because charged particles from the sun can penetrate more easily in a weak magnetic field. And over the past century, the global magnetic field has weakened about 10 to 15 percent. Recently, that magnetic field deterioration has accelerated, provoking scientists to wonder if it will build up to a pole reversal in which compasses will point to the south instead of the north.Click for report.
July 22, 2004 Stockholm, Sweden – Lloyd Jones reporting for Australia’s Herald Sun in Stockholm began a dispatch today:
“Homing pigeons vanish during race. Organizers of a race for homing pigeons were still scratching their heads in wonder today after about 1500 of the birds, famous for their ability to find their way home, went missing during the contest.”
Usually it takes the pigeons only two hours to return to their home lofts. But a member of the Malmoe Homing Pigeon Club, Lars-Aake Nilsson, said only about 500 of the 2000 pigeons flown in the contest have returned after the 150 kilometer flight between the cities of Ljungby and Malmoe in southern Sweden. “Click for report.
“There is also the fact that NOAD-Northeast was conducting war game exercises that morning, a fact that has been very little talked about and certainly not reported to the general public. What’s also not been reported, according to the information that I have, at least one of the scenarios they were considering in their war game exercises concerned hijacked aircraft being crashed into buildings. Now, this could explain the lack of response when the air traffic controllers began to report that four planes were off course…”
July 17, 2004 Wise County, Texas – Jim Marrs has been tracking down facts and trying to make sense of political stories in America since his college days as a journalism major at North Texas University in Denton. He graduated in 1966 and began a newspaper reporting and editing career at the Denton Record Chronicle, Lubbock Avalanche Journal and Fortworth-Star Telegram where he was an investigative reporter and cartoonist, and earned photography awards.Click for report.
New Milford is about twenty miles west of Waterbury, Connecticut.July 15, 2004 New Milford, Connecticut – Yesterday, Kamilla Gary reported in The News-Times of Danbury and New Milford, Connecticut, about “Mystery of the maize: New Milford woman’s corn crop flattened overnight. Mid-garden damage defies explanation, son says.”Today I talked with Kamilla and the corn crop’s owner, Martha Bailey, who has lived at her New Milford home for three years. There is a 7-foot wire fence built around her garden of tomatoes, squash, yellow and white corn. The squash was about three feet high and the corn plants were nearly six feet high. But on Tuesday morning at 6 a.m., she had sat down to have coffee and was shocked when she looked out the window.Click for report.
July 13, 2004 Spanish Fork, Utah – Since my July 6, 2004 Earthfiles report about an addition to the Spanish Fork, Utah barley formation associated with the presence of mysterious small lights, I have talked with Channel 5 KSL television in Salt Lake City about returning to do a second aerial. KSL’s first aerial taken before July 1 is shown below. Today, KSL provided the new aerial image above which was videotaped on Tuesday, July 6, 2004. Spanish Fork resident Melissa Crumpton, a field worker for BLT Research which sampled plants and soil, also did a diagram of the formation after the July 4 addition. The overall pattern measured 207 feet in length and 118 feet in width.Click for report.
July 13, 2004 Las Vegas, Nevada – A month ago on June 12, 2004, I reported an update for Earthfiles and Coast to Coast AM with George Noory about alleged government whistleblower and microbiologist, Dan Burisch. See: 06/12/04 Earthfiles and 05/19/04 Earthfiles. His Ph.D. allegedly was earned at State University of New York, Stonybrook (SUNY) in the 1986 to 1989 time period and paid for by the government, but no diploma or university confirmation has yet been provided.

West of Warsaw and fourteen miles south of Mogilno and Zabno (yellow on map) in the village of Wylatowo, the fourth pictogram for 2004 in Poland was reported on July 5, 2004. This is the third formation discovered near the Wylatowo farm village.
July 7, 2004 Wylatowo, Poland – Robert K. Lesniakiewicz, Vice President of the CBUFOIZA (researchers in Poland who investigate unidentified aerial objects and crop formations) reports: “A new wheat crop formation in Wylatowo was examined by the Polish ufologists’ teams on July 6, 2004. That pictogram was found nearby the Wylatowo village on the morning of July 5, 2004. It is composed of four elements. Two were examined first: they are two circles of 6 and 9.5 meters in their diameters.
