Work party Sunday 4th August

Meet 9.55am at The Iron Bridge

Dear all,

A busy session this month.

For some months we have intended to carry out maintenance of the cattle fences, but circumstances or weather conditions have prevented us. At last we made a good start and also carried out temporary repairs to broken (vandalised) fencing around the coral.

A couple of the team finished the job of grass cutting on Ryall Island. It's a task we carry out at spring and late summer and was started by our volunteers a week or so before. 

Further preparation of the pill box for bats was carried out by rat proofing the entrance and vegetation clearance was also carried out. 

Finally, our last group cleared the pathway of a lesser used route between field 3 near Fort Drew hide and Stockers Lake.

Many thanks to Ken Davies, Mike Lansdown, Tony & Sheila Lee, Christine & Nick Gray, Shaan Purohit, Catherine Green, Nicola Pazdzierska, Nilesh Dodhia and Nigel Daley.

Best wishes
