Straw Bale

Time for more straw in the orchard. This bale is not quite so well-wrapped as the last lot, so getting it off the ute and into the orchard was a challenge.

First step - pushing it with the tractor:

and tipping it off:

An extra strap to help hold it together on the short journey through the vege garden:

Tractor to the rescue again, tipping it onto its side:

Then two humans had to roll it through the vege garden and into the orchard. I'm not quite sure what happened at this point:

It hit something and wouldn't roll straight. But eventually

it was safely inside the orchard. No chooks or ducks escaped, and no trees were harmed in the manoeuvre.
