I have enough acreage to encourage some wildlife without reducing my hay operations and pastures too much. I leave some fence rows weedy with some overhead brush to encourage quail nesting. I leave a small wooded area unmowed so it is a thicket for deer, turkeys, rabbits. I have 2 burn piles that I rarely burn, so the critters burrow in. I plant millet and sunflowers in a few corners for food. I leave a few milkweed plants for Monarch butterflies. And of course the does raise their fawns, and the turkeys their chicks, in the hay fields before they are cut. I do not cut all the hay at one time so the babies move as we cut sections of the field.
