Bush -hogging

The big orange machine came out and ran around in our pasture this morning,  It lets the lady ride on it's back, even tho she doesn't give it carrots.  We do not think the orange machine is very smart.  It pulls a big flat noisy red thing around behind it and makes the weeds flat.  Or flattter than before, anyway.  Mostly it runs around in the parts where the manure is, because that is where the high weeds are.  The lady thinks that making the weeds flat will help the grass to grow, but really, it is the manure we put there that makes the nice grass.  We don't eat in those areas tho, so I guess that is why there are high weeds.  The orange machine ran around on the big hill in our pasture and on part of the low areas too.  A big blue gray bird with long legs landed right next to the Orange machine, but then the machine started going towards it and the bird said "Oops" and flew away.  Then a big brown bird that was sitting in the trees flew down and landed right where the weeds were flat.  It did that couple of times.  Us ponies thought when it flew away it would have a mouse, but it didn't.  We kept an eye on the lady to see if she went to one of our apple trees to throw us the apples we can't reach.  Most of our apple trees are along the fence, so we can eat some of the apples when they fall down but there are a lot of them that we can't get. There have not been any apples at all and we do not see any apples on the trees.  And the lady didn't get us any apples either.  So now most of our pasture on the big hill is flat and part of the low field is flat too.  The orange machine went around those spindly weeds that get the pink flowers.  The lady says she likes those weeds.  Us ponies don't care one way or another.  We don't eat those weeds.  When the Orange machine was done, it was all yellow and very dusty.  Even the red flat thing was yellow. It was a kind of interesting morning, but there were no carrots.
