Mystery: Blue flag markers on 36" wire appear in back yard

[paul s]

We have 1.5 acres and the back 1/2  acre I only mow once every 3 weeks or so.  Well off the road, but boarding the road, [we live on  a corner lot]  there are three of these flags in a triangle about 70 feet apart.  ant there are no utility right of ways or any thing else back there.  Ok must be ufo landing site or something but i found no burnt grass or any thing odd like that. 

Likely may never kinow.

If it is in a cleared area it could be ground markers for aircraft. Photo's , maping or something similar.  Around here they use a white "X" about 5'X5'.  You might still wear the aluminum foil on your head just for safety sake.

Crop Circles have been heavy in the UK lately....

Not a clue from me..

Heard about the crop circles in the pharmeceutical company opium poppy fields in Tasmania? They camped out and watched. Apparently stoned wallabees go in circles

Now that you mention it I do remember the solving of that mystery.

The real crop circles - government computer controlled  laser pranksters from satellites?

Last summer the power company surveyed a line across some property we own without asking permission. The surveyors trespassed and placed a line of flags across the land. We where never contacted and nothing has ever been built. I pulled all the flags and trashed them and put up no trespassing signs. Never have heard a word about it.
