Oh what to do on a Sunday afternoon...... It was so muddy that I almost got stuck trying to get this little field cut..... :shock:
I flipped the hay on wednesday afternoon as it was so wet under the windrow it wasn't likely to ever dry out.... Oh and notice the windrows..... That darn wind was a real pain and strung the hay all over the place..... :roll: But finally this morning it was dry enough to bale.
My right hand little man...... 8) He wanted to bale so bad so I stuck him on it for a hundred feet or so. He did well for his first time.
But I figured I had better get it done so I traded the camera for the tractor
Here is one of the finished products....
And last but not least better get them off the field....
I have to admit I am well satisfied with the end results, I got 13 bales off a 5.5 acre field. It was planted last fall and went through a pretty darn hard frost and has recovered well. It was so tall (over push bar high on the swather) it laid over and in places I only got about half the plant... I tried my best but the swather just wasn't able to rake the tangled mess up as good as I would've liked. However the hay is going to feed real nicely next winter and that is all I could ever hope for.... 8)
