Well Ricky, I think it definately is an orb. These are frequently observed above crop circles (aswell as other circle phemomenon on ground…ice, sand, dust etc.) and as you probably know, in the parts of UK where Avebury is located, there is a belt of very high content of (I think it is magnesium or some other piezoelectical mineral) that has very high electrical conductivity properties.
I tried to find a map I have seen where all reported CCs in UK is plotted in and also the “soil belt” is shown in a layer under it, and there is not too much doubt when seeing that. The same goes for the soil in the parts of US where these phenomenon occur.
Here is some info about Avebury for those not from UK:

I know there was some very special incidences of Crop Circles in Avebury in August 2008. Do not remember the whole story, but first came up a gigantic cropcircle, which resembled a universal map, pointing out earth and it direction in regard of universal apperance and so on – and planets or objects “on its way in”.
Then the funny thing happende that the farmer got pissed off, and was about to drive his harvesting machine over it – because of hundreds of people was around his acres and farms. Then something very special happened, and that is what I not exactly can not remember what was, but it appeared a new “add-on” cropcircles on the side of it – which has some remarkable specifics to it – and remarkable in the terms of something that is remarkable in it self (cropCs).
I do think it was something that he plowed it, but it just reappeard what ever he did or something like that. So here is a link i just googled now, do not have the time just now to find much more:

I can sniff fakes quite good, and taking into account all I can register in that picture, and gathered up with my extra sensory perceptional knowledge – I am steadfast that this is an orb – and a very special one in it characteristics from what I have seen before. And from my POV(er) it is the manifested lightbody of one of more ELFS….and as and Angel(ish) inhabitant, you know of those little ones 😉
Much love
