I may be describing this incorrectly. You're creating a top-level var named bar. You're calling the function foo, and associating the value it returns to that var bar. foo's return value happens to be a function that looks like it should be a counter. Except that, in clojure, it isn't. This vaguely looks like an approach to lexical closures that I vaguely remember from scheme textbooks (and Paul Graham essays).
