Awres Glow

Grid Ref SO 6494 1275

On a very wet day we drove deep into the forest to Awres Glow reptile site. We cleared the young birch creating glades for reptiles especially snakes.

 

 

Thanks to our thoughtful volunteer who made a small fire to warm us up and dry our gloves off!

All of us came well prepared in our waterproofs and warmed our hands round our coffee cups - the temperature was only 3 degrees!

This shows where the invasive young birch is that needed clearing.
