Is this photo (Above linked) and it's documented sequence of events right?
The photo shows surface inserts at 15:43 and 15:18, this is a before and after!
Why show this?
If you look at insert 15:43 why are there 3 new depressions in the soil/surface and not just one? the insert 15:18 clearly shows the area without these 3 new marks?
and then the bounce? a massive tangent to the right to end up in the only possible area to be partly hidden from the sun Doh!
So mainly! why 3 new depressions? in 15:43!
