Smoke

[Nicky]

Our visibility is next to nothing. I took some pics while raking this morning.

Mike says this is his hawk, follows him around while haying and farming.

A little smoke flavoring on the hay.

I think they do that hoping to find mice when the hay is turned/baled. Always fun to watch, though, Your hay looks good, Nicky.

Yeah, we see them catch mice and snakes. Thank you, the second crop was better than the first which is weird.

I was baling one time and the hawks were following me, all of a sudden a dead mouse drops from the sky on to the twine box on the baler, I think the hawk was sharing with me, thanking me or just too full to eat anymore.

Secord crop here was better than first and the third, now ready for baling, is about 20% more than the second. I think it was the cool weather back in May and June that resulted in slow growth. They cut last of May, then June, and now July. They should get 5 cuttings this year.
