The patterns of farming
Farmers are generally thought of as fairly prosaic people, not given to fancy thoughts of art. Yet, the patchwork patterns of ploughing a paddock give rise to an artscape. Is it Life imitating Art or Art imitating Life?

Thanks MJ, I’d love to go flying over the land also. I envy the crop planes when they work this area.

It would make a beautiful flower garden with lots and lots of bird houses.
OK, don’t say it, one can be allowed to dream once in a while.

Absolutely! The hill would be much better covered in wattles, and other native plants:-) Then the birds would be happy and the other native animals would have a home as well. In the time I’ve been here, that paddock had never been ploughed until this week – another sign of it time for me to move on perhaps…
