The work never ends for farmers and ranchers. It is a tough job since the livestock don’t recognize holidays and they need to be fed in blizzards and storms. There is always the gamble on the weather, whether or not the crops they planted will mature and be plentiful enough to make it to the next year.
Right now the oats are being harvested and hay is being baled. And the day continues well past sunset like this rancher moving his big round hay bales off the field so the new crop of hay can grow.
I take a lot of sunset pictures but this one was a hard shot to get since I was on the road when I spotted the tractor on the hill and for some reason it didn’t stop when I hollered whoa so the first shot had a tree through the tractor and this was the second shot and there were no more shots to take as it disappeared off the hill.
