Never seen the reserve so wet, so much standing water so many new streams flowing. On Tuesday 12th March, despite this wet and a slight drizzle during most of the day, undeterred, the primary task of raking up the windrows was more or less completed. This proved to be relatively easy and worthwhile doing. Under a thick mat of decayed bracken the spring flowers were struggling to find the light. Meanwhile other hands were cutting down birch and willows saplings that were encroaching on what should be open ground. Looking back so satisfying to see the spaces opened up. All that is needed now is a chainsaw to trim down some of the thick stems that defied the bow-saws.
