A good work morning today (Sat 4 July)

 

Six of us had a good morning out in the sunshine today clearing overgrowth along the sides of the main woodland paths - the circuit round the Ancient Woodland, and the Ride (the path between the main woodland and the Western Wood)

At this time of year the vegetation grows really fast, so we trimmed back the greenery next to the notice boards at the Shire Way entrance as well, plus the annoying patch of nettles underneath the interpretation board in the Orchard on the Common.

Please join us next Sunday (12 July) at 2 pm for a guided species identification walk through our very diverse Nature Reserve. We'll be meeting at the Shire Way gate next to the notice boards.

Sunday 12 July - Wildlife indentification walk at Wapley Bushes

 

Please join us on a species identification walk around the Wapley Bushes nature reserve with Rupert Higgins of Wessex Ecological Consultancy,  who writes our five year management plans. The meadows are home to a large variety of flower, grass and insect species so we might see some interesting plants and creatures on our tour.

Our events are all free to attend and they do not require advance booking. Everyone is welcome, though children under 16 will need to be accompanied by a responsible adult.

Please meet at the Shire Way, Yate gate entrance to the reserve at 2.00 pm.
The postcode is BS37 8US for satnavs. Please wear suitable footwear.
