This is the equipment being used across and down the road from my driveway. One of the strangest and longest-lasting jobs I've ever seen. That's a skidder in the foreground--used to push the trees once they've been cut down. Makes a huge mess. Meant for anyone to be able to use--there is a picture of a bunny for the pedal to go fast, and a turtle to go slow. I kid you not. The big red machine is used to load logs into trucks and to pile them into big piles. We used to call it the lobster claw. It's called a loader, but so are a lot of other pieces of equipment--sort of a generic term, I think.
