  2. Love the hay bales in your watercolor – thinking about all the cows and other farm animals who will enjoy the taste of summer in their winter meals of hay…

    • Hi. Round bales seem the norm, although a few farmers here still use the rectangular bales. I learned to drive in a field piled with hay bales!!! Jane
