First Mowing, home farm orchard, Red Rock, East Chatham NY, May 24, 2009

The season's first mowing is finished

One of the urgencies bringing me back to Red Rock by mid May each spring is the need to mow the fields before the growth gets beyond the capacity of Power-Trac PT-1845 Articulated Tractor's roughcut mower to handle the tall grass. Now that the mowing is done I can move on to other things - like finding the sources of those two pesky leaks in LD that are still eluding me - and are driving me crazy!

Great Horned Owl

Have a look at the neat picture I got of one of a pair of Great Horned Owls? I spotted a few minutes after I took the picture above. They were hanging out in the woods off to the left of the field pictured (for those who know what the following means, if you walk up to the evergreens in the picture and turn to the left you are standing in what was known as the "orchard" looking off the bluff and overlooking my grandparents now abandoned farmhouse).
