One of great joys of living in a farming village is watching the seasons change and the repeating cycle of farming tasks. This last week it has been the turn of hay making. I wrote about it here last year but couldn't resist the temptation to post some more pictures of this years work.
This was the hay field before mowing - full of buttercups and grasses.
I know I'm biased but to me this is one of the best views in the world; words cannot describe just how much I love looking at it.
Mowing begins.
Hay bales drying in the sun.
The Nu checks out the quality of the farmers work - she approved.
The field was even more delightful in the golden light of the summer evening.
Look at the quality of that light - gorgeous.
In the next field over we have some equally photogenic cows to delight us.
Breathing in deeply and sighing hugely in contentment.
Sometimes it's the simplest things to be grateful for.
