Sunday 14 August 2011: A walk on the woodside!

Steve Joul led an enthusiastic group of seventeen on a tour of the wonders of Adel Woods.  Despite over-running by 45 minutes, we still did not complete all of them!

Starting with an ancient celtic carving (a national monument!) we went on to explore different habitats, finishing with Adel Moor at about 4.30 where, in the golden evening light, we had two sightings of lizards and a mouse!

On the way, Steve pointed out many interesting species of flora and fauna.  At the beginning he showed us some caterpillars of the Death’s Head Hawk Moth which had recently been found in Leeds.
