Hot

 Out early to try to miss worst of heat. With a few runners and sedge warblers. Snipped a tiny bit of growth but, of course, it's moving fast right now. No litter

Sunday 21st June

If you are entering or leaving via NML be prepared to clamber!

Overheard the canoeists saying they didn't know where to turn around now that the rope has been taken down.

A few walkers. Too hot for runners.

Saturday 20th June

 The ash and willow that was blocking the popular swimming spot by the top of the loop on no mans land has been moved sadly and a rope swing has been made. Will make sure this gets put back and the swing removed. 

Muggy Saturday

 Rugby Club Meadow, 14 cattle on the far side of the meadow, 4 ponies hiding away in the trees just by the recreation ground.

Eastern Meadow, 17 cattle and 3 ponies, all together near the bottom end.

A34 Meadow, 5 cattle out in the open by the electric fence.

Thursday 18th

All good, no litter which was nice. Some graffiti on the pond platform but nothing offensive. 

June 18th

Warm humid morning at Winnall Moors, several groups of school children and a number of walkers enjoying the countryside. 

Duck with 6 ducklings at the pond. No other things to report so far.....

Wednesday 17th June

 Very quiet this morning. 5 cygnets with parents guarding them as they snooze on the bank by the pond junction. Lost track of time watching a mallard keeping a watch over her 6 ducklings on the pond! 

Tree branches still in place at the northern end. Marsh thistles in full bloom along with some purple loosestrife.
