Jack and Jill worked in the field centre garden today mowing and tidying.

Volunteers also helped by re-surfacing paths with wood chippings, dead hedging with brash, checking mink rafts and pruning around the site.

Pupils from the Dales School continued to work on improving a path between the moor and the hide.

We are extremely grateful for all of this help. Thank you everybody!

A hen Pheasant was spotted today with a newly hatched chick sitting on her back! The first frog has developed from a tadpole in the classroom tank. The moth trap is set so fingers crossed for a mild night. We hope to catch some Poplar Hawk Moths this month.
