Woodland Management
At the moment its hot and sunny here and for 1 October, most unusual. Bess and I are still doing lots of walks locally and at the moment there are lots of changes going on in the woods.
Yorkshire Water are currently undertaking a Management plan of the woodlands round here and slowly are restoring them to Ancient Woodland areas.
The non native species of tree, mostly pine, are being taken out. Replanting will them take place with the predominant tree species being Sessile Oak. Any trees already in the woods that are native to UK will be left to naturalise.
It should look really good when its regrown, not sure ill still be around to see it though!
In the meantime it looks like the Orcs from Lord of the Rings have just crashed through!!!
