Sunday 6th August 2017 - Work Party

A new sign was put up today so that the woodland can be more easily found from the road. It is just on the edge of the village hall car park. Here they are digging the hole:

A new owl box was installed on a suitable tree with a good flight line from the main path.

Brambles were removed from around the table in the glade area and I'm sad to say some litter was also picked up. 

A spectacular giant fairy toadstool ring was discovered in the top corner and although a ladder was supplied, the aerial shot didn't really do it justice. So here it is from ground level anyway, the ring does go all the way round.

Looking for fairies!

Close up 

Much effort was put into clearing an area of sycamore seedlings and the final foxglove plants were put in together with the continued weeding around the established plants.
