Today we journeyed to the NE corner of the county to the Ynys Dawela Nature Park.
In typical December weather of light rain and mist we tackled a few jobs, including removing some fencing - seems we always remove fences- the usual litter pick and a Knotweed survey ready for dealing with in 2018, there was very little Knotweed found.

| Just how deep is this pond? |
It is a wonderful location and the recent management work on the dipping pond, the "meadows" and areas of woodland will enhance the respective habitats for the Marsh Fritillary and allow light to the woodland floor to enrich the flora.

| Mown meadow |
There were good sized mixed flocks of birds moving through the woods with TREECREEPER, NUTHATCH, BLUE, GREAT AND LONG-TAILED TITS, a few JAYS moving through and the ubiquitous GREY SQUIRREL.
The photo doesn't do the actual scene justice, ..all was calm and still.....
I saw most of the birds when I stopped to catch my breath on this flight of steps!!!!!!!!
