Digger in the lucerne

The weather is nice now. Digger and I went for an evening walk. Once he got excited chasing something and wanted to get out on to the highway and I managed to call him off.

Here he is in the lucerne. Andrew has had one cut off it, which went into round bales, and it looks ready to go again. The second cut should be cleaner and I wouldn’t be surprised if they put it into small square bales.

The men are still full on harvesting grain. Andrew was driving the chaser bin yesterday. He goes to the header (combine harvester) and they auger the grain from the header into the chaser bin so that the header can keep working.

When the grain is delivered to the silo it is tested for moisture, protein, cleanness, etc. It has been going high protein this year, 15%, which is good.
