I live very close to the edge of Cleethorpes, open farmland is only a few 100 yards from our house, "as the Crow flies". We took our Suzi for a walk on the local farm where the crops are ready to be harvested.

| The large, mown field is where Car Boot Fairs regularly take place in the summer. |

| Just after we'd left this Tractor & Baling machine arrived, I wasn't able to get back in time to photograph it from the front so made do with this image of it heading for the farmyard. |

Lovely photos, with great skies. You are lucky to have such a walk so close to you - as is Suzi. I like the idea of leaving the old tree to decay naturally.
