Wed 8th Mar 2023 - Haseley Manor, Arreton. GG # 924.

 Mark's Photographs and video.













Geoff's Editorial.

Today we were back to Haseley Manor wetlands. These have been created within the flood plain of the Eastern Yar. We were last there in a very rainy spell which made for very soggy working. We were hoping that after a long dry spell the ground would be firmer but after heavy overnight rain it was quite soggy again.

Today's task was the cut down youngish willow and birch growing on the lake side and then create large habitat piles which could be suitable for nesting birds.

There was a good turnout despite the miserable weather and the whole lakeside was cleared.

We return next week presumably to clear another section.


Many thanks to Geoff for the editorial and to Mark for the photographs / video.
