Making Hay while the Sunshines...

We have been having some extreamly dry weather so it has been great for making hay/silage and the last couple of day's Farmer George has been getting this paddock ready for 'harvest'... he cut it one evening part of it in the dark ( the farmer never sleeps) and then 'conditioned' it by another machine and flicked it all out so that it would dry evenly and then this morning raked it into winrows.. ready for the baler to come and put into big round bales.. I missed this process.. This is the steepest hill of this paddock and until we got a 4wd tractor this part could not be cut,.. tomorrow is the job of collecting all the bales up and putting them in the shed... and the way things are going we will be feeding them out very soon...
@happypat here is one you would like to see...

I grew up in the prairies so this makes me smile. Only it was very flat with no hills but farm communities nonetheless

Love the composition and colour in this shot, so typically rural. Looks like a pretty steep hill.
