Thumbs down GRRRR Neighbors.....

I need to vent and get ya'lls opinion and help on something.

I have new neighbors behind me and they spend ALOT of time in their yard. Every Friday and Satuday night they have a huge bonfire. OKay its not a bonfire but it sure scares me. They do this fire in a firepit that is above the ground under a tree and over grass. Its not one of those fire pits on a cement patio surround by rocks- its in the middle of thier backyard and probobly about 25 from my house and doesnt not seem at all safe to me. I have a bunch of trees in my backyard and wood paneling around my house and my backyard is extremely dry so Im super afraid if thier fire is ever out of control my hosue will go up in flames in 2 seconds. Thier elevated fire pit(not really sure what to call it) is about the size of a regular grill but thier fires end up so big and the flames are so tall I can see it over the fence and it looks as though the base of the fire is about 6 feet wide although I know it really isnt, its probobly at least 3 feet wide though and the flames are probobly 6 feet high. My work room faces their yard so of course if the fire ever spread it would be the first thing to go which would be absolutely devestating and I dont know how I would ever recover my losses.
I also think my neighbors are drinking when they do these fires as Ive peaked through the fence and seen some bottles. So needless to say I am extremely uneasy about their constant bonfires they have on the weekend. SHould I call the city and have them check it out to make sure they are following all proper regulations? I mean for the love of pete their fire pit is under a tree- how stupid is that?
How do I call the city without the neighbors knowing it is me?
