The weekend volunteer team carried on where the Tuesday group left off by clearing more of the brash above the Decoy Pond. We were pleased to be interrupted by a number of reserve visitors who stopped to say how impressed they were with the results of last autumn's forestry work. It seems that everyone is looking forward to seeing the heathland coming back and to how the plants and wildlife will respond to the removal of the heavy pine tree cover in areas like the bank running down to the pond. The photos show the view from the top of the bank and Janina, Alan and Chris getting "kippered" by the bonfire.
