Digger Update

The digger was only on site for only a fortnight but boy oh boy did it do some work!

To the casual observer we shifted some mud around but those with a keen interest in wildlife (or even have an 'ology') will note a few more habit specific alterations. Gone has the bund between the Marsh and Lake. Gone is the willow surrounding the Marsh. Gone is the dry areas of the reedbed.

Like everything, habitat changes have to be accepted by wildlife but I've been told, by an ologist, that our working will greatly benefit the kinds of species we want to encourage here.

I know it looks a mess but just wait and see - I said the hedgelaying by the Marsh screen had ruined the hedge but look at me now eating humble pie.
