Dust devils are really cool. They’re little columns of spinning air, like a tornado, except they hit on sunny, warm days and rarely cause damage to speak of.
I just found a great video of one that shows the dust devil sucking up some huge sheets of agricultural plastic in a strawberry field. Sounds strange, but it’s mesmerizing to watch:
A stil from the "plastic" dust devil in the first video.
This video reminded me of another video of a dust devil, really a hay devil years ago in South Burlington, Vermont. It looked like so much fun.

What a lot of work down the drain, or up in air. Now I’ll watch the hay devil, think I’ve seen it but as you say, fun to watch.
