The Woods have
really benefited from the recent drier and sunnier weather.
Spring has sprung!
13 volunteers
attacked a number of projects during the March workday.
‘Dead-hedges’ (hurdle-like fences) were constructed or repaired
in order to protect saplings; log-paths were elongated to
mitigate against next winter’s mud (!); and clearings were
exposed to let in air and light and so encourage the growth of
wild flowers. Our efforts in beautiful weather were rewarded by
the sight of a pair of kingfishers near the north pond, easily
visible from the new bridge.
Work parties
will be held on the following Saturdays 9:30 to 12:00 noon.
All welcome. Meet at the shore end of Warblington Road.
Just bring gardening gloves.
