Silage

This early afternoon Charlie invited me to his work place.

He was turning silage today.

I sat, waited in his tractor.

Whilst he tended to the welfare of Limousin coos.

Visiting vets used the farm's crusher, a mechanical device that keeps the coo still, for examination and treatment.

The vet plunged her arm up the coos anus to find nothing really wrong with the swollen coo other than a blood blister.

Today was about turning silage [for winter feed] and the health of coos, but at this time of year, attention is focussed on harvesting crops.
