On a chilly January morning, the main job was to ready the bird boxes for the coming breeding season. The boxes were checked to see if they had been nested in during the past year, cleaned out and given a lick of protective paint – wildlife friendly of course. We were very pleased to find that over 80% of the boxes had been used. Appropriately, one of our volunteers spotted the highly unusual bird’s nest fungus (Crucibulum leave). These are tiny cups, less than a centimetre in diameter, containing white egglike nodules that contain the spores.

Our next Volunteer work morning is Saturday 18th March from 10:00 to Noon, meeting at the Education Area. New volunteers of all ages and abilities are always welcome. No experience needed.
