Down on the Farm - 7 December 2010

Despite the cold weather (-8C) a merry band of Farm and Roving volunteers turned out to clear the bank adjacent to The Granary, a Special Site of Slow-worm Interest. 

Hopefully the snowdrops and primroses will benefit from the increased light level and put on a good show next Spring.  The ponds were completely frozen for several inches, so while we were kept warm by burning the debris collected, others were on a mission to proved birds with much-needed drinking water.

 

 

Of course, before we left as the light failed, there was just enough time to capture some of the stunning wintry views.
