Mason Dixon Farm : On May 24, 2004, we traveled to the Mason Dixon Farm, on the state line near Emmitsburg, Maryland, to look for a bird called the Red-necked Phalarope, which is extremely rare so far inland. Unfortunately, we didn't see the phalarope. but we did have an enjoyable time watching the farming activities. The Mason Dixon Farm is one of the largest and most technologically advanced dairy farms in the world, functioning as a "living laboratory," according to owner Richard Waybright, who along with his brother Horace is the seventh generation of Waybrights to own and operate what is now more than 3,000 acres of tillable farmland. The farm, which produces 80,000 quarts of milk daily from its 2,300 Holstein cows, designs and manufacturers its own innovative equipment in line with its synergistic philosophy of agriculture, looking for unique things to maximize effectiveness such as an anaerobic manure digestor, a milking system where cows ride railroad cars from the barns to the milking parlor, and covered bunker silos. And in addition to all this, the Waybrights are friendly to birders, allowing unrestricted access as long as we don't get in the way of their operations.
