Re: Today in pictures

They've been harvesting the winter wheat today. Apparently the combine driver saw a fox with two cubs in the field first thing but luckily they escaped - the man with the shogun is the farm owner - he wasn't after the foxes. He had a few shots at pheasant which were lifted as the harvester went along - while I was there he didn't manage to shoot any!

The harvested wheat is made into corn silage in a sort of giant sausage - had never seen it being done before -clever piece of kit to see in action. In the final photo you can see this years new product on the left and the one on the right is last year's which is in use now.
