Transformer in the hedge



      An old friend revisited, the old Massey Ferguson gently rusting and rotting away in a hedgeback in Cambridgeshire.
      The elder, nettles and cow parsley are gradually overpowering him and the hedge is playing it's part, growing right through the engine bay. When we took the picture a robin was giving us a good telling off for disturbing his, or her, domestic bliss so somewhere in that jungle is a nest with eggs.
      It's quite fitting that something that worked the land is now being reclaimed by the land and used by the wildlife. You could make a natural history documentary just about this old tractor and the few square yards around it.
       You don't have to head for Africa, the Amazon or Borneo to film, are you listening David Attenborough?
      He's in the Amazon? Surprise, surprise.
