Checking tubes

Wednesday, March 31st 2010

These Greylag Geese up on the wetland didn't mind the rain. They were searching for a nesting spot next to the wetland hide.

Greylag Geese

Our volunteers were busy all day in the mist and rain. They cleared a new path of brash and then ministered to the many trees which are still in tree tubes.

Even when given the chance to stop because of the rain, they carried on with the job!

Brian carried on working all day. Here he is checking yet another tree, or possibly taking a quick five minutes nap!
