Many of the stones are small but a few of them are very big. Some of the big stones are as big as a man. The biggest stone weighs about 350 kg. The stones only move at night. Nobody has ever seen them moving, but now scientists (科學家) know the answer to the question. The answer is the wind. When the wind comes from the west, the stones move to the east.

Sometimes, there are even bad storms (暴風雨) at night. Rain falls, and the wind is strong and cold. The water on the ground turns into ice easily. Then the strong wind can move the stones along the ground. In the morning, the sun comes up and dries (使變干) the ground.
