Hay Bales Serene

There is something about bales of hay that always look so beautiful and serene to me…no matter the location…whether it be near a barn…on a field of green…combined with Civil War headstones…or next to a road.

Hay is actually fescue, alfalfa or other grass that has been mowed…and then it is cured…for use as feed for domestic animals…such as horses and cattle, etc. It is baled in either rectangular shapes, or rounded shapes, and stored for winter feeding.

Their shapes in the meadows bring an element of visual peace and joy to my day.
