Working on the North Lees Estate

Tomorrow, Saturday, the 7th January, me and a few walking friends are off up to the Dark Peak where we're going to be working with the Peak Park Rangers somewhere on the North Lees Estate. We don't know what we'll be doing but it's usually good fun and we head home feeling that we've done something useful.

Pictured are Rob Ashton and Juan Other [in camouflage blue] in Dennis Knoll Wood the last time we worked with the Peak Park. We were clearing some of the smaller saplings in the wood mainly to ensure that the habitat that suits pied flycatchers is not lost.

Look out for more information on our day sometime from Saturday onwards. [Incidentally - thanks are due to Philippa House for supplying the photograph.]
