A Partial Un-lockdown from June 1st 2020

The news from HDC is that Conservation Volunteers will now be allowed to carry out a restricted set of tasks, working in line with the latest social distancing rules. 
This means that our next scheduled meet will go ahead on Sunday 28th June. We may be able to arrange interim meets if HDC can ensure that our 'haul' is collected as usual when we finish. 
They will let us know.


The continuous fine weather has allowed magnificent growth
and flowering of riverside trees and shrubs attracting bees and butterflies, providing
natural shelter for birds, especially migrant warblers which can sit and sing from the branches, safe from ambush by sparrowhawks.
