BIRDWATCHERS at West Sedgemoor RSPB reserve may have got more than they bargained for when they came across this unusual sight.

The digger fell foul of the Somerset Levels’ peat moors, becoming almost completely submerged.

Fortunately the driver escaped, but the vehicle itself may be irretrievable.
