Excavators are machines that dig deep into the ground. They have a long arm and a big bucket.

Appearance

The Excavator is a large, powerful vehicle, often seen in bright yellow or orange, that moves on chunky metal tracks instead of wheels. It has a cabin that can spin all the way around, and a long, jointed arm with a big scoop at the end.
