Second crop haying. Round bales.
The baler in these photos is controlled by a hand held computerized monitor. Notice the device in the operators lap in the first photo. The operator watches the bale making progress on the monitor control and then "releases" the bale. This appeared to be fairly new equipment.

How interesting! In all the years I've seen these monster bales, I don't think I've ever seen the monster machine that makes them!
Hey - I want to know how do they get these bales out of the field? Have you ever seen them taking them out of the field? ( I think they do it in the middle of the night so no one knows how they do it) J & K
