Proper ploughing

I feel a lot better about my ploughing for watching that, and he looks like more of a proper farmer than me - he's got a flat cap and cows n that.

And knowing bugger all about cows - why are the cows so interested in the bottom of the furrow?
 
I am fairly sure it is here in Portugal from the number plate. I cannot make out the country, but I do not know any other country with that style of numbers and letters. It is a European plate. It is also inland rather than near the coast because those birds are Cattle Egrets and there is no sign of any seagulls. I will go further and guess it is in the Tejo valley from the bamboo like plants - which are not bamboo.

The egrets are exceptionally unafraid of tractors and implements and I have had them riding on a land leveller. Storks are much more wary.

It is my style of ploughing, but it is not me.
