With this bad weather, getting outside is a challenge and getting stuck is a challenge. The coolest thing you can have is a drone on your farm to go check your animals, make sure there's no babies, make sure nobody's down, no animals are down, make sure that they have plenty of food, and you don't even have to go lay eyes on them. So, I tossed the drone up the day before this video to go out and take a look and see how much of this hay that the cows have consumed and whether they've discovered the other bail that I stashed out in the pasture. and it looks like they have not discovered it. Now, here's a shot from the next day as I leave the back porch, fly right over the shop here, and check on the cows. I can see them all lounging pretty much up by the uh pond. It looks like they've broken through the ice. And we'll fly on over here and take a look at this other bail, this hay bale uh that I put out in the pasture. And it looks like they found it, too. And I got a couple cows lounging in
