Nazca lines...
Here's a new one. I'm pretty sure this is the exact location, but if not, it's pretty close (there's nothing else famous in this area...).

I have been able to find those ones but have been looking for the smaller ones like the hummingbird, the spider, and the 'spaceman'. Even though the hummingbird is a couple hundred meters long I don't think the resolution of any satellite shots in Google Earth for that area is fine enough to pick it up...
