OUR AIM IS TO PROTECT OUR NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND THE HABITAT IT PROVIDES FOR WILDLIFE ALONG THE RIVERSIDE
It was cloudy all day but with very little wind, quite warm but becoming cooler with more drizzle - well it WAS the start of British Summertime....
Despite the general view, wildlife tried hard to tell us that it was spring - we heard several Great Spotted Woodpeckers trying their best to create the most impressive sound drumming, Chiffchaffs sang loudly together with Wrens and Robins - and Mallard patrolled the river both downstream and upstream.
There were signs of blossom if we looked closely for tiny flower buds but it was difficult to tell what would happen to trees with closed leaf buds - however a month on and we have the answer! See the notes for April to come.
