Making hay while the sun shines

Haymaking or BMX track

Hay waiting to be baled or a BMX track?!

This hot and dry weather means that hay and silage will be in short supply later it the year so my dad has cut the wildflower meadow around the yurts to make some extra food for the cows for the winter.  We waited for most of the wildflowers to go to seed before cutting.  This makes sure that the wide variety or flowers and grasses that grow around the yurts come back in abundance the following year.  The cows are in for a rich and tasty winter treat!
