Volunteers feeding the wildlife

Tuesday, August 25th 2009

Ten huge (ton) sacks of bird seed were bagged into smaller sacks and stored away by our team of volunteers today! Here are some of the group having a well earned break!

Volunteers also helped by feeding the Water Voles and carrying out other essential maintenance tasks.

Meanwhile, people attending the Forest School training course (OCN Level 3), felled some small Silver birch trees and constructed small benches from them.

The remaining voles on the 'soft release program' will be let out of their pens tomorrow (apart from the 7 juvenile voles that escaped over night by gnawing their way out of their pen)!

The last piece of news from the reserve today is that it was also Colin's birthday yesterday (as well as Marion's) and he is pictured below with his birthday cake! Many Happy Returns Colin!
