Posted by notjustair on June 21, 2015 at 20:35:06 from (70.195.0.191):

I spent the better part of the day "at the office" planting soybeans. I got a field done that has
always been a rain jynx and the only problem was a broken shear bolt on the marker.

The field has half a dozen large terraces in it and runs up the side of a hill. Since buying the new
planter last year I have put it to no till to try and save some soil. I haven't gained on it as much as I
hoped, but with all of the rain this year it was bound to wash.

Anyway, without a disking to even them, those terraces are full of holes. Coyotes digging for
dinner, etc. I had one that fell between the marker and planter so on the next pass I clicked it back
to about 5th gear. With my luck it would be right where a row unit was. I was watching the hole on
my left and as it passed right by the front tire out popped a coyote pup. He was the cutest darn
thing. Only about a foot tall, he was probably three or four months old or so. The hole went right
between the duals so sure enough, a row unit bounced right over it. The planter had no more
gone over it than another pup pops out behind the planter and runs full out following his brother to
the timber about 75 yards away. Coyotes have really been a frustration, but those little suckers
made my day. They were so cute. I was hoping they would stop to look at me so I could get their
picture, but they kept on trucking to the trees. I mentioned outloud to myself that those little
buggers don't know how lucky they are. It could have been the disk or mower conditioner.
Between them and the deer at dusk, I was reminded why the hot hours are worth it.
