A Dry Day
Posted
on
Our Tuesday volunteers were blessed with dry weather for a change, not a drop of rain on our bonfire today! Working up in the conifer block out on the woodland trail we had a dichotomy within the group, some of them went to plant trees (Larch), whilst others took down some of the straggly Hawthorns that have been racing for the light .
40 trees had been planted by lunchtime, so in the afternoon everyone helped with taking down Hawthorn and burning the brash, including the Dales School.
Whilst planting we disturbed this wonderful beetle from his underground home, we think it is a Violet Ground Beetle.
Thank you everyone, you all worked really hard and have made a big difference.
