WildPlace Blips

By WildPlace

Stinky goodness

My job today took me to the machair at Iochar. As soon as i saw this rusting tractor, which had been hard at work spreading rotting seaweed onto some of the plots i was surveying, i knew it would be my blip for today. The seaweed is collected in the winter and left to rot in piles and is then used by crofters as a natural fertiliser on the machair.

I will definitely be making a print of this one for my dad - he's a tractor fanatic and has a lovingly restored Ferguson T20 - the first tractor he used as a young man in the late 1940s
