The path ro reservoir pond and the Healty Living walk was flooded today. Drain pipe beneath running from the wetland was blocked so a bit of probing was needed. Flow restored and path draining well. #AshlawncuttingLNR #dayoffvolunteering.... all my fault anyway LOL...1/2

Guelder Rose,Spindle,Alder Buckthorn and a couple of Field Elm were planted on one of the slopes of #AshlawncuttingLNR on our Sunday #volunteer work party. That's all of the whips provided by @wildtara.bsky.social @warwickshirecc.bsky.social . Adding diversity to secondary woodland.

Today was a planting day at #AshlawncuttingLNR. Ground was very stony as uou'd imagine on a disused railway but #volunteers persevered and we got most of the mix of species in the round,staked and fitted with biodegradable guards.

Our spring fed streams didn't freeze so birds could drink and forage when other places were solid ice. Wondering now if we should make a viewing screen..🤔. #BirdsSeenIn2026 #AshlawncuttingLNR

We hadn't quite finished all the brush cutting and raking at #AshlawncuttingLNR. The zigzag access path grasslands at Ashlawn Rd and a bit of scrub work made a good chilly and hilly morning's work for 5 of us today. With 50% of the graslands uncut we'll leave ell alone until April.
