Home



Working all day and night which is usual for Tuesdays, 5-9 not 9-5! Anyway it was great to see at least 15 Willow Warblers, a Garden Warbler or two, a Painted Lady, a Small Tortoiseshell and numerous Red Admirals around the holding today, shows the value of those "weeds", well that's my excuse! We now have two beehives full of bees on site so it will be interesting to see how they fare over the next year and if they make a difference regarding pollination.
