ago. For several years these helicopters would circle incredibly low,
one time actually clipping a tree in my front yard. They had cameras
attached and were Border Patrol looking for marijuana fields. About 20
years ago a woman actually shot one of them down. After that we found
pointing rake or shovel handles at them usually resulted in them
leaving.
