Sugar beet harvest, Bradwell

Image: © Evelyn Simak Taken: 22 Feb 2011

Two tractors and a sugar beet harvester are working in this field south of Bradwell. One of the tractors has just left with a full load and another has come back onto the field. The harvester has to wait until the tractor has lined up so that the sugar beet that are being transported up the conveyor and fall into the tractor's trailer won't land in the field. A large number of excited gulls are following the harvester, feasting on freshly unearthed morsels but right now they too are waiting.
