You mean the circles? That is farm land - sometimes it is done in circles with these long giant sprinkling systems that are along a radius of the circle.

Those are fairly common out here, you can see them from the air easily but from the ground they might not look so strange.

When we flew from Tucson to Dallas, they were everywhere in AZ, NM and west Texas; possibly some in Mexico, too. My son joked that they were alien crop circles. They seem pretty common in the SW.
