Narrowboat on the Worcester and Birmingham canal, on the outskirts of Worcester, and a hay bale in a field on the opposite bank.

The last eight hay bales got collected today. Unfortunately they meanwhile got rained on a whole lot and aren't so nice anymore, a great shame.
On the upside, the tractor driver had skills and the right attachment and managed to safely retrieve those two absconding into the forest.
Not a great year for hay. Although with Lithuanian farmers getting rid of their cows due to the low wholesale milk prices the demand has gone down as well.

#Solar and #RenewableEnergy on #Farms - #UMassAmherst
Excerpt: "What Works Under Solar Panels
Sheep and Poultry: #SheepGrazing is well-established at solar sites, they benefit from shade, don't damage equipment, and manage vegetation. #Poultry also do well. Larger animals require reinforced racking; goats and pigs may interfere with wiring.
#Hay and #Pasture: Shading reduces yields, but shade-tolerant species (#orchardgrass, #WhiteClover) maintain reasonable productivity.
#Vegetables: #LeafyGreens, #brassicas, and some #herbs tolerate #PartialShade. Sun-loving crops should be planted between panel rows.
Fruit: Most fruit crops need full sun. Currants and gooseberries are more tolerant. Start small to observe actual impacts." [Raspberries do well in partial sun]."

What's up? Montana says "hay"...

More haybale humpers. With three cars this time!
Farmer pro tip: Never drop your bales near the road 😹

Tourists. Campervan drives by, stops, drives backwards on the road, stops, people come out and climb around our haybales for a photoshoot 🤣

If a burrito is a wrap and a donkey eats hay, then these must be burro burritos, right?
Anyways, the big machine came by and baled all this nice dry hay into dense 1.3m diameter rolls. Unlike wrapped haylage, this smells nice and hay-y but must be stored under a roof.

A red tractor came with two big spinning rakes (Krone Swadro) and belatedly swathed our hay.
Unlike the fancy New Holland with the mower, the smaller red tractor did not have air conditioning and so the poor topless driver had to pick between hay dust and heat stroke. He chose dust.
Its ready for baling now, unless it rains.
Although with the heat wave coming here over the weekend, it may be best to wait a few days.

Prime Day is here, so I decided to join the fun in an anti-corporate way.
For the next few days, use code PRIMEART26 to get 20% off artwork in my online gallery.
If you're already browsing for deals this week, don't forget to save a little room for art.
Today's feature is "Hay Mow Memories". Another view of my Uncle Fuzzy's Barn, from the inside.

Peering out of the kitchen window, I yell "Hey, someone is mowing our meadow!"
After no further negotiating or any communication, a big New Holland tractor with front and rear disc mowers cut our meadow down in under two hours.
Good! Would've taken me 12 hours in my little tractor, if I had bought a mowing attachment.
We'll see if the original deal is back on due to the sudden fuel price drop or if there will be demands for payment later.
The weather is ideal for hay, I expect it will be turned tomorrow and then the big baler-wrapper will come laying tractor eggs with a very loud door slam noise each time.
At least its done and not going to waste. Quality stuff, not sopping wet like the eggs baled during pouring rain on the next field over.

TIL there are micro-balers for walk-behind tractors. Cute!

Clueing up about flail mulcher attachments, because it looks like our hay meadow deal is going that way 😕

Finished moving the hay. The rearmost stuff was small square bales, really old ones. That can stay there for now, the back of the barn is full and the bales are easy to handle when the time comes.
To move it, I pitchforked the rest to the front of the occupied section, grabbed it with the excavator, pushed the pile along the barn floor to the back, then pitched it up into the new section and finally climbed up there to pitch it on the giant pile.
No wonder everyone switched to bales, loose hay is extremely labour intensive and very space consuming. Hence the huge barns!
Now just raking up the floor, clearing out random planks, rocks and bricks.
At least everything is biodegradable or re-usable.

Decompressed hay. That's the half I got out. Took 15 minutes with the excavator to tear it out and hours with the pitchfork to move it into this giant hay mountain in the back of the same barn.
The corner is getting pretty full already (its a lot bigger than it looks, this barn is huge and I'm standing on top of more hay taking the picture).
Now it started raining and I had to roll all my stuff back into the barn so I can't continue.
I did have time to rake up the bottom, which was mostly dust and short stalks and mulched it around the pumpkins. I did that last year with other parts of the barn floor and it proved to be great fertilizer :)

Maximum #CottageCore bullshit today.
I wanted to move this hay out of the way so I can store something in this section of the barn. Turns out its very compressed. Hay.bz2 or even Hay.xz.
You can't even stick a pitchfork in, that's how dense it is. Its been there a really long time and had been walked on and stuff stored on top, perhaps that's why.
I've used the mini-excavator with my adjustable thumb on maximum setting to grab big chunks and drag them apart, which worked, but it can only reach in halfway.
The rest I'll have to do by hand. And its in a big decompressed pile now and needs to be pitchforked to the rearmost corner of the barn so we can use it for mulch and chicken floor later. 😓

I wonder if he wants to do another attempt 😁
