I know ferns are popular in several Asian cultures. Apparently not all varieties are good for you. (Carcinogenic?) Maybe read some articles and learn to recognize the edible ones before diving in...

...Fiddleheads have antioxidant activity, are a source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and are high in iron and fibre. Certain varieties of fiddleheads have been shown to be carcinogenic. (See bracken poisoning)
We've explained an interpretation of this before. It's a pond (in a desert area) lined with black polyethylene or sprayed black tar to prevent evaporation. The green ring is algae. The purpose of the pond, and its shape, I have no idea. But it's NOT the Millenium Falcon. Notice the sand-buried boat upper right.

US Cities Are Helping People Buy Amazon Surveillance Cameras Using Taxpayer Money

The Ring doorbell surveillance camera sits squarely in the center of a Tiffany-blue online flyer, which provides details about a "Security Product Subsidy Event" in Arcadia, California. "Big Sale," the advertisement says, in citrus-colored script. "$100 off." "HELP STOP CRIME BEFORE IT HAPPENS," the ad continues. This isn't an ad from Best Buy or an electronics store. It's an ad from the Arcadia city government. The local city government is selling discounted surveillance cameras directly to its residents, and the "discount" is subsidized by the city. In other words, taxpayer money is being paid to Ring, Amazon's home surveillance company, in exchange for hundreds of surveillance cameras.
Cities and towns around the country are paying Ring up to $100,000 to subsidize the purchase of the company's surveillance cameras for private residents. For every dollar committed by a city per these agreements, Ring will match it. This motivates cities to pledge tens of thousands of dollars to a tech giant that is building a private, nationwide surveillance network -- which Amazon is using, in part, to secure the packages it delivers. A typical discount program will last several weeks, or until a certain number of residents take advantage of the program. Motherboard has identified 14 American cities that have these discount programs as well as one city in the United Kingdom. However, there are probably more cities that have offered similar discount programs. Motherboard has reported that Ring courts local governments and police departments around the country to advertise, distribute, and use its products.
Yes. It's a helicopter. We spent half a day tracking these MUSEL flights and found out what the MUSEL operation is.

Yeah, but we haven't tried to find prior flight history to compare it with, so without a benchmark of what's "normal" for this squadron, can't really say it's more or less than before.
We are confident they are helicopters though. Also watch the flight path, no fixedwing aircraft would fly that low over DC and make loops and circles. Choppers can do that -- airplanes can't.
