Lol ...had a big yeller tom cat we called Earless.. always pikin fites , had his ears chewed back from all his battles , never knew where he would show up on the farm .. I was about half way through the north field cutting hay with nh 489 , and I heard the rollers clunk and a cat scream , I yanked the hand clutch on the DC and just as I rounded the corner of haybine I saw a tail of a snake wigglin away into standin hay ,, , there before me on top of the windrow barely recognizable was EArless ,, a crumpled hopeless quivering mass of nuthin ...it is heart breaking ,to see life take an abrupt end ,...while laying for that snake . he was killed in the line of duty,,. ///funny all the wildlife in a hay field ,,. one yr seemed like there were a dozen or more young rabbits running around ,,it was kinda sad to see them layin on top of the windrow ,,after I killed 3 I would slow the DC back to give the rabbits a chance to get out of the way,, meanwhile the buzzards caught on to the smorgasboard the nh 489 was dishing out,,and were watching from the treeline ...they would swoop down grab the kill and go ,, most the rabbits got the heck out of there to live another day . I got down to a 100 foot postage stamp square ,,. and I would see 2 rabbits ,, one on one side and one on the other ,, maybe it was the same one ??? apparently , he would get in the thick far enuf from harms way each round ,,finally he got in front of tractor tire and I chased him up the windrow ,, , nursing the clutch if he slowed,,.there were enuf dead rabbits that day ... we got to the corner and the rabbit finally decided to make a run across the field for cover,,i stopped and watched nature at its finest and cruelest ,, when the rabbt was nearly across to the corn field .. Along came a hawk swooped down and hooked his talons onto that rabbit , and stuggled with it trying to get some lift ,,they came within 30feet of me and that poor bunny was squealing for his life , and the hawk was determined .. .. Such is LIFE,,.sometimes it seems futile ,, sometimes comical , and sad ,, but all in all worthwhile
