Construction Sights

I am thrilled by construction sites and must note these two things:

- That sweet backhoe is a mommy! See how she protects her baby, hiding her behind that great claw? Soon, they will dig a basement and tread out of sight, to emerge by way of connected tunnels as a crane. 
- Pants on the railing, lower right. Whose? Why? Did a worker finish for the day and change into slacks and a cardigan a la Mr. Rogers? Or is this the real crane dad's clothes, discarded after a moment of intimacy between man and machine? Do all construction sites keep a spare pair of pants in case the Hulk jumps down?
