Love those barn swallows,they keep the bugs under control.

Always enjoy mowing hay fields in the summer with 40

or 50 swallows following the tractor.

Lots better than having a wild turkey fly up

at ya thats been sitting on a nest hidden in the grass.

rabbits in the hay fields are killed a lot...hubby came home with the tractor after cutting hay and had a rabbit across the tractor like you’d carry a deer on your car. Ground hog holes in hay fields are nasty and can tip a wagon over. Nasty way to get hurt if you end up under the wagon. I loved the different smells different fields put out. One of the fields smelled like apples, but no apple tree’s in the field...
