Large snow drift? Cocoon? Alien?

Actually, the answer would be none of these! It's a large haylage/silage bag. We put in hay and oats to fill 550' of bag this past week. It will "mature" into a wonderful feed for winter and I LOVE the smell when the bags are opened to feed the cattle. I think the cattle love the smell too! Ron Byers of Berwick had the team to do it. We supplied the field, the location, and a tractor. His guys had trucks to haul it and the know-how to do it! It was like a well-oiled machine! A truck would come in, dump it's load into the unloader which filled the bag and voila! That truck would pull out and shortly later another would pull in.

Secretly I'd like to go out with a BIG magic marker and draw a funny face on it or something else. Not sure I can get away with that one!
