Which has got me thinking: if the recon was done 2-4 weeks ago that paddock was probably green grass and would have seemed quite suitable.

Last week my place was green, three days ago I cut 5 acres of grass and it now looks as brown as the paddock in the photo.

But for the downwash to blow over the safety barriers indicates a certain lack of forethought by someone
