Work Party - Sunday 6th September 2020

 



A beautiful morning in the woodland, and feeling a bit autumnal. Several degrees warmer at the top of the woodland where we installed a new owl box. Donated by a supporter and restored by Richard, who chose an ancient oak tree with a good  view over the field. 

That's the tree as a few little branches were trimmed off and the view over the field.

The  box was hauled up the tree with a rope and a bit of muscle, and put into position on a fixing point previously attached to the tree.  Then the front was put back on.



Meanwhile in the woodland we strimmed and raked a patch of long vegetation, and did some general trimming but the aim never is to have a tidy woodland. 


We also picked, and enjoyed eating the sweet yellow plums.



During the week, the village book group used the woodland glade to have a meeting.
