That sinking feeling when we realise that we’ve bitten off far more than we can chew!!

South of Berrybanks or north of the underpass, it feels like we are gonna be camped here for a long time…

The before foto, the work, and the after foto… It needs to be a flat bottomed V like this \_/ and everything is in such a tangle. It’s gonna be a long process to get rid of the sun-blocking overhang.

My new pole-saw broke almost immediately.

Next week I will bring a ladder so we can get up amongst it.

Here is our YouTube of the after…

We have some new graffiti in the underpass. This is what Kai, one of our volunteers, felt about it…

An interesting and thoughtful perspective.

We are gonna have to dig in and get this bit done. The ladder will help, I’m sure. It’s all about creating areas of sunlight on the southerly facing bank to encourage wildflowers and butterflies.

Which nicely moves us to our assistant showing our new book.

This will help us loads in getting the habitat right.

Until next time!
