When I bought my small property (4 acres) I "justified" buying a drone for aerial photography so we could document the improvements. Mine's an older Parrot 2.0 that is passable, but not great by any means as you have to be within 100 yards of it.
The other morning I was on my phone on the deck filling up a watering jug for the plants on the deck and I heard this loud noise, looked up and there was a drone about 100' above my head looking straight down on me. I looked up and after about five seconds, it hauled butt off and out of sight. This one is very different from the cheapo, $300 version I have.
Two days later I heard the same buzzing, came out of my shop to look up and sure enough... same drone hovering about 50-100' above my property and as soon as I came out and looked at it, it zoomed off.
I'm on 4 acres so it's not like it was a mistake, they were definitely looking at my property, whether for curiosity's sake or for mischievous intentions. I thought "man, it's a good thing I'm not carrying right now" the second time it happened. The next time I might be just out of the field of view with a bb gun.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
